< Zechariah 11 >

1 Vo Lebanon nakot jouse honglen in chuleh na Cedar thing jouse mei kahlhahsah tan,
Open your doors, Lebanon, that the fire may devour your cedars.
2 Vo chahthingho, Cedar thing alhuhgam jeh in kapmin ajeh chu thing thupitah tahho alhu gam tauve. Kap uvin Bashan gangpi phungho ajeh chu gammang thingphung bitchah ho akisa tlha gam tai.
Wail, fir tree, for the cedar has fallen, because the stately ones are destroyed. Wail, you oaks of Bashan, for the strong forest has come down.
3 Kelngoi chingho kale penkhu ngaijun, ajehchu agam phalai chengseu akisumang gamtai. Keipinou ho ham ngaijun, ajehchu Jordan phaicham thing jouse agam hel tai.
A voice of the wailing of the shepherds. For their glory is destroyed: a voice of the roaring of young lions. For the pride of the Jordan is ruined.
4 Pakai Pathen in hitin aseije: “cheuvin, thadinga kigong gancha hokhu gaching tan.
Thus says the LORD my God: "Feed the flock of slaughter.
5 Achohon khohsahlou hellin kelngoite athat gamtauve. Ajoh hochun Pathen thangvah in umhen, ajeh chu keihi ka haotave kelngoiching ho jeng in jong khotona anei pouve.
Their buyers slaughter them, and go unpunished. Those who sell them say, 'Blessed be the LORD, for I am rich;' and their own shepherds do not pity them.
6 Hitobanga chu kenjong agamsunga chengho chunga khotona kaneilouding ahi tin Pakaiyin aseije. Ahinla keiman amahochu aheng akomteu le alengteu khutna kapehdoh ding, amahon agam uchu asuhgam diu, ahinla keiman kahuhdoh loudiu ahi.
For I will no more pity the inhabitants of the land," says the LORD; "but, look, I will deliver the men everyone into his neighbor's hand, and into the hand of his king. They will strike the land, and out of their hand I will not deliver them."
7 Chuteng keiman thadinga kigong suhgentheija um ganchaho chu ka vesuijin ahi. Hijouchun kelngoi chingho mol chu ni kachoijin, khatchu ngailutna ahin, khatchu kipumkhatna ahi.
So I fed the flock of slaughter, especially the oppressed of the flock. I took for myself two staffs. The one I called "Favor," and the other I called "Union," and I fed the flock.
8 Keiman kelngoi ching miphalou thumchu lhakhat sung in ka sumang in ahi. Keima hiche kelngoi chinhi ka chim tan chuleh amaho jong achim tauvin ahi.
I cut off the three shepherds in one month; for my soul was weary of them, and their soul also loathed me.
9 Hijeh chun keiman kasei jin, keima nangho kelngoiching hita ponge, na thiule thitauvin, min nathau jongleh nathat tauvinte chule ahing nalai hochu khat le khat kithat to jing un katin ahi.
Then I said, "I will not feed you. That which dies, let it die; and that which is to be cut off, let it be cut off; and let those who are left eat each other's flesh."
10 Hichun Keiman ngailut kiti ka mol pachu kalan bohni kason hichun keiman chitin namtoh kinoptona kana sem chu kasuhbei ahitai ti vetsahna a kabol ahi.
I took my staff Favor, and cut it apart, that I might break my covenant that I had made with all the peoples.
11 Hichu amaho toh kikinoptona achaina ahitai. Gancha hon lengvai hochun keima eive uvin, hichehi Pakaiyin anatoh a thu asei ahitai etiuve.
It was broken in that day; and thus the poor of the flock that listened to me knew that it was the word of the LORD.
12 Hichun keiman akom uva kaseijin, na deijun nalung lhaina’u ahileh kathaman neipeuvin nalungu ahilouleh haijun kati. Hichun amahon katahman ding in dangka somthum eipeuve.
I said to them, "If you think it best, give me my wages; and if not, keep them." So they weighed for my wages thirty pieces of silver.
13 Pakaiyin kakom ah hitin aseije. Hiche sum thupitah keima mankham bep dinga eikipe chu Pakai houin sum kholna-a chun lehluttan eiti. Hichun keiman jong dangka somthum chu kalan Pakai houin sumkholna munna chun kalehluttan ahi.
The LORD said to me, "Throw it to the potter, the handsome price that I was valued at by them." I took the thirty pieces of silver, and threw them to the potter, in the house of the LORD.
14 Chujouvin kamol khatpa kipumkhatna chu kalan bohni kason Judah leh Israel kipumkhatna chu akehtai ti kavetsahna ahitai.
Then I cut apart my other staff, even Union, that I might break the brotherhood between Judah and Israel.
15 Hichun Pakaiyin ka komma hitin aseije: “chenlang kelngoi ching phachom lou pan mun khu galo tan eiti.
The LORD said to me, "Take for yourself yet again the equipment of a foolish shepherd.
16 Hiche hin avetsah chu keiman hiche nammite hi akelngoi teu athi amang umjongleh khohsahlou anousenho jong ka simlou adamlou jong jen nom lou adamthei hojong vah nomlou kelngoi ching phachomlou khat kapeh diu ahi” ati. Chuche tai louvin jong hiche kelngoi chingpa chun akelngoi thaopen pen hochu atin teni kikah geija abottel a anehjeng ding ahi.
For, look, I will raise up a shepherd in the land, who will not visit those who are cut off, neither will seek those who are scattered, nor heal that which is broken, nor feed that which is sound; but he will eat the flesh of the fat sheep, and will tear their hoofs in pieces.
17 Ohe! Kelngoi ching phachom lou ho, kelngoi hon dalhaho! Chemjamin abanjang asat tanpeh ding chuleh amitchang jetlang kikheudoh pehding, abangjong chu pannabei hiding, ajetlang mitchu chodel jeng ding ahi.
Woe to the worthless shepherd who leaves the flock. The sword will be on his arm, and on his right eye. His arm will be completely withered, and his right eye will be totally blinded."
