Exegesis
The verse opens with consecutive verbal-perfect forms in Hifil and Piel—veheveti {וְהֵבֵאתִ֤י | wə-hē-ḇē-ṯî} ‘and I will bring,’ utsreftim {וּצְרַפְתִּים֙ | u-ṣə-rap̄-tîm} ‘and I will refine them,’ and uvekhantim {וּבְחַנְתִּ֖ים | u-ḇə-ḥan-tîm} ‘and I will test them’—emphasizing divine refining of the remnant.
In context — Zechariah 13:9
I will bring the third part through the fire and refine them as silver is refined, and I will test them as gold is tested. He will call on My name, and I will answer him; I will say, “He is my people,” and he will say, “The LORD is my God .”
