Ezechiel 34
1 I stalo se slovo Hospodinovo ke mně, řkoucí:
Yahweh gave me another message. He said,
2 Synu člověčí, prorokuj proti pastýřům Izraelským. Prorokuj a rci jim, těm pastýřům: Takto praví Panovník Hospodin: Běda pastýřům Izraelským, kteříž pasou sami sebe. Zdaliž pastýři nemají stáda pásti?
“You human, prophesy about [leaders] of Israel. [They should be taking care of my people like] [MET] shepherds [take care of their sheep]. Say to them, ‘This is what Yahweh the Lord says: Terrible things will happen to you leaders [MET] of Israel who only take care of yourselves! You should certainly [RHQ] take care of [your people like] [MET] a shepherd takes care of his flock of sheep!
3 Tuk jídáte, a vlnou se odíváte, což tučného, zabijíte, stáda však nepasete.
[It is as though] you eat the curds, you slaughter the very good animals and wear clothes made from their wool. But you do not take care of the flock.
4 Neduživých neposilujete, a nemocné nehojíte, a zlámané neuvazujete, a zaplašené zase nepřivodíte, a zahynulé nehledáte, ale přísně a tvrdě panujete nad nimi,
You have not enabled those who are weak to become strong. You have not healed those who were sick. You have not bandaged those who were wounded/injured. You have not brought back those who went astray. You have not searched for those who became lost. You have ruled your people harshly and cruelly.
5 Tak že rozptýleny jsou, nemajíce pastýře, a rozptýleny jsouce, jsou za pokrm všelijaké zvěři polní.
So they were scattered, because you did not [take care of them like] [MET] a shepherd [takes care of his sheep]. And when they were scattered, [it was as though] wild animals attacked and [killed them and ate] their flesh.
6 Bloudí stádo mé po všech horách, a na každém pahrbku vysokém, nýbrž po vší země širokosti rozptýleny jsou ovce stáda mého, a není žádného, kdo by se po nich ptal, ani žádného, kdo by jich hledal.
My people wandered like sheep all over the high hills and mountains. They were scattered all over the earth, and no one searched for them [DOU].
7 Protož ó pastýři, slyšte slovo Hospodinovo:
Therefore, you [who should be acting like] shepherds, listen to what I, Yahweh the Lord say:
8 Živť jsem já, praví Panovník Hospodin, zajisté proto že stádo mé bývá v loupež, a ovce stáda mého bývají k sežrání všelijaké zvěři polní, nemajíce žádného pastýře, aniž se ptají pastýři moji po stádu mém, ale pasou pastýři sami sebe, stáda pak mého nepasou:
As surely as I am alive, my people [are like a flock of sheep that has] no shepherd, and as a result [it is as though] wild animals have attacked my people and eaten them. You did not search for them; instead, you only wanted to provide food for yourselves.
9 Protož vy pastýři, slyšte slovo Hospodinovo:
Therefore, you [who should be like] [MET] shepherds, listen to what I, Yahweh say:
10 Takto praví Panovník Hospodin: Aj, já jsem proti pastýřům těm, a budu vyhledávati stáda mého z ruky jejich, a zastavím jim pasení stáda, aby nepásli více ti pastýři samých sebe. Vytrhnu zajisté ovce své z úst jejich, aby jim nebyly za pokrm.
I am opposed to [you leaders who should be like] [MET] shepherds for my people. I will remove you from taking care of my people, with the result that you will no longer feed yourselves [instead of feeding them]. I will rescue my people from you, with the result that you will longer be able to [butcher them and] eat them.
11 Nebo takto praví Panovník Hospodin: Aj já, já ptáti se budu po ovcích svých a shledávati je.
This is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say to you leaders: I myself will search for my sheep and take care of them.
12 Jakož shledává pastýř stádo své tehdáž, když bývá u prostřed ovec svých rozptýlených: tak shledávati budu stádo své, a vytrhnu je ze všech míst, kamž v den oblaku a mrákoty rozptýleny byly.
Like a shepherd finds his scattered sheep, I will rescue my people from all the places to which they have been scattered, at a time when things were very gloomy and they experienced disasters.
13 A vyvedu je z národů, a shromáždím je z zemí, a uvedu je do země jejich, a pásti je budu na horách Izraelských, při potocích i na všech místech k bydlení příhodných v zemi té.
I will bring them back from many countries and gather them together again in their own land. [Because my people are like sheep] [MET], [it is as though] I will enable them to find good pastureland on the hills of Israel, and in the ravines, and in the villages of Israel.
14 Na pastvě dobré pásti je budu, a na horách vysokých Izraelských bude ovčinec jejich. Tamť léhati budou v ovčinci veselém, a pastvou tučnou pásti se budou na horách Izraelských.
[It is as though] I will allow them to graze in good pastures on the mountaintops. They will lie down in good (grazing areas/grassy fields) there [DOU].
15 Já pásti budu stádo své, a já způsobím to, že odpočívati budou, praví Panovník Hospodin.
I myself will take care of my people and enable them to lie down and rest.
16 Zahynulé hledati budu, a zaplašenou zase přivedu, a polámanou uvíži, a nemocné posilím, tučnou pak a silnou zahladím; nebo je pásti budu v soudu.
I will search for those who are lost and bring back the ones who have strayed away. I will bandage those who have been injured and strengthen those who are weak. But I will get rid of those who are fat and powerful. I will act fairly toward [the people who are like] [MET] my sheep. That is what I, Yahweh, promise.
17 Vy pak, stádo mé, slyšte: Takto praví Panovník Hospodin: Aj, já soudím mezi dobytčetem a dobytčetem, mezi skopci a kozly.
And as for you who are like [MET] my sheep, this is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say: I will judge between each of you; and I will separate [those that are peaceful like] sheep from [those that are always trying to dominate others like] goats.
18 Což jest vám málo pastvou dobrou se pásti, že ještě ostatek pastvy vaší pošlapáváte nohama svýma? a učištěnou vodu píti, že ostatek nohama svýma kalíte,
It is bad that [RHQ] some of you keep the best pastures for yourselves. It is even worse that [RHQ] you trample the good grass with your feet. You yourselves drink the clear water [RHQ]. But with your feet you cause the other water to become muddy [RHQ].
19 Tak aby ovce mé tím, což vy nohama pošlapáte, se pásti, a kal noh vašich píti musily?
[It is as though] you [RHQ] are forcing my flock to eat the grass that you have trampled and to drink the water that you have caused to become muddy!
20 Protož takto praví Panovník Hospodin k nim: Aj já, já souditi budu mezi dobytčetem tučným a mezi dobytčetem hubeným,
Therefore, this is what I, Yahweh the Lord, say to you: I myself will judge between [those of you who are like] [MET] the fat sheep and [those of you who are like] the thin sheep.
21 Proto že boky i plecemi strkáte, a rohy svými trkáte všecky neduživé, tak že je vyháníte i ven.
[who are like] strong sheep, [it is as though] with your shoulders and buttocks you have shoved away [those who are like] thin sheep, and you have butted them with your horns, until you have chased them all away [from the good pastureland].
22 Protož vysvobodím stádo své, aby nebylo více v loupež, a souditi budu mezi dobytčetem a dobytčetem.
But I will rescue my people, and they no longer will be (harassed/treated cruelly). I will judge between one person and another.
23 A vzbudím nad nimi pastýře jednoho, kterýž je pásti bude, služebníka svého Davida. Tenť je pásti bude, a ten bude jejich pastýřem.
And I will appoint one leader [MET] for them, [someone who will be like] King David, who served me [very well]. That leader will take care of them and be like their shepherd.
24 Já pak Hospodin budu jejich Bohem, a služebník můj David knížetem u prostřed nich. Já Hospodin mluvil jsem.
I, Yahweh, will be their God, and [the one who is like] [MET] King David will be their king. [That will surely happen because] I, Yahweh, have said it.
25 A učině s nimi smlouvu pokoje, způsobím, že přestane zvěř zlá na zemi; i budou bydleti na poušti bezpečně, a spáti i po lesích.
I will make a peace agreement with the people of Israel. In this agreement I will promise to get rid of all the wild animals in Israel, in order that my people may live safely, even in the desert and in the forests.
26 K tomu obdařím je i okolí pahrbku svého požehnáním, a ssílati budu déšť časem svým; dešťové požehnání budou bývati;
I will bless them, and I will bless the places close to my sacred hill. I will bless them by sending them rain showers at the right season; they will be showers to bless them.
27 Tak že vydá dřevo polní ovoce své a země vydá úrodu svou; i budou v zemi své bezpeční, a zvědí, že já jsem Hospodin, když polámi závory jha jejich, a vytrhnu je z ruky těch, jenž je v službu podrobují.
The fruit trees will produce fruit and the ground will produce crops. And my people will live safely in their land. When I rescue them from people who caused them to be slaves [MET, DOU], they will know that I, Yahweh, [have the power to do what I say that I will do].
28 I nebudou více loupeží národům, a zvěř zemská nebude jich žráti, ale bydliti budou bezpečně, aniž jich kdo přestraší.
[Soldiers from] other nations will no longer take away their valuable possessions, and wild animals will no longer attack them. They will live safely, and no one will cause them to be afraid.
29 Nadto vzbudím jim výstřelek k slávě, a nebudou více mříti hladem v té zemi, aniž ponesou více potupy od pohanů.
I will cause their land to be famous/well-known for its good crops. There will no longer be famines in the land, and people in other nations will no longer ridicule them.
30 I zvědí, že já Hospodin Bůh jejich jsem s nimi, a oni lid můj, dům Izraelský, praví Panovník Hospodin.
Then they will know that I, Yahweh their God, am helping them, and they will know that they, the Israeli people, are my people.
31 Vy pak ovce mé, ovce pastvy mé, jste vy lidé, a já Bůh váš, praví Panovník Hospodin.
[It will be as though] [MET] my people are my sheep whom I will take care of, and I will be their God. That is what I, Yahweh the Lord, declare.’”
