Ezekiel 34
1 And the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,
La palabra de Yahvé vino a mí, diciendo:
2 Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel. Prophesy, and say to them, even to the shepherds, Thus says the Lord Jehovah: Woe to the shepherds of Israel who feed themselves! Should not the shepherds feed the sheep?
“Hijo de hombre, profetiza contra los pastores de Israel. Profetiza y diles a los pastores: El Señor Yahvé dice: “¡Ay de los pastores de Israel que se apacientan a sí mismos! ¿No deberían los pastores alimentar a las ovejas?
3 Ye eat the fat, and ye clothe yourselves with the wool. Ye kill the fatlings, but ye do not feed the sheep.
Tú te comes la grasa. Te vistes con la lana. Matas a los gordos, pero no alimentas a las ovejas.
4 Ye have not strengthened the diseased, nor have ye healed that which was sick, nor have ye bound up that which was broken, nor have ye brought back that which was driven away, nor have ye sought that which was lost, but ye have ruled over them with force and with rigor.
No has fortalecido al enfermo. No has curado lo que estaba enfermo. No has atado lo que estaba roto. No has hecho volver a lo que fue expulsado. No has buscado lo que estaba perdido, sino que has gobernado sobre ellos con fuerza y con rigor.
5 And they were scattered because there was no shepherd. And they became food to all the beasts of the field, and were scattered.
Fueron dispersados, porque no había pastor. Se convirtieron en alimento de todos los animales del campo, y se dispersaron.
6 My sheep wandered through all the mountains, and upon every high hill. Yea, my sheep were scattered upon all the face of the earth, and there was none who searched or sought.
Mis ovejas vagaban por todos los montes y por todas las colinas altas. Sí, mis ovejas estaban dispersas por toda la superficie de la tierra. No había nadie que las buscara ni las buscara”.
7 Therefore, ye shepherds, hear the word of Jehovah:
“‘Por lo tanto, pastores, escuchen la palabra de Yahvé:
8 As I live, says the lord Jehovah, surely inasmuch as my sheep became a prey, and my sheep became food to all the beasts of the field, because there was no shepherd, nor did my shepherds search for my sheep, but the shepherds fed themselves, and did not feed my sheep,
“Vivo yo”, dice el Señor Yahvé, “ciertamente porque mis ovejas se convirtieron en presa, y mis ovejas se convirtieron en comida para todos los animales del campo, porque no había pastor, y mis pastores no buscaron a mis ovejas, sino que los pastores se alimentaron a sí mismos, y no alimentaron a mis ovejas,
9 therefore, ye shepherds, hear the word of Jehovah.
por lo tanto, pastores, escuchen la palabra de Yahvé.”
10 Thus says the lord Jehovah: Behold, I am against the shepherds, and I will require my sheep at their hand, and cause them to cease from feeding the sheep. Neither shall the shepherds feed themselves any more, and I will deliver my sheep from their mouth, that they may not be food for them.
El Señor Yahvé dice: “He aquí que yo estoy contra los pastores. Requeriré mis ovejas de su mano, y haré que dejen de apacentarlas. Los pastores no se alimentarán más. Libraré a mis ovejas de su boca, para que no sean alimento para ellos”.
11 For thus says the lord Jehovah: Behold, I myself, even I, will search for my sheep, and will seek them out.
“‘Porque el Señor Yahvé dice: “He aquí que yo mismo, yo mismo, buscaré a mis ovejas, y las buscaré.
12 As a shepherd seeks out his flock, in the day that he is among his sheep that are scattered abroad, so I will seek out my sheep, and I will deliver them out of all places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day.
Como un pastor busca su rebaño el día que está entre sus ovejas dispersas, así yo buscaré mis ovejas. Las libraré de todos los lugares donde se han dispersado en el día nublado y oscuro.
13 And I will bring them out from the peoples, and gather them from the countries, and will bring them into their own land. And I will feed them upon the mountains of Israel, by the watercourses, and in all the inhabited places of the country.
Las sacaré de los pueblos, las reuniré de las tierras y las llevaré a su propia tierra. Los alimentaré en los montes de Israel, junto a los cursos de agua y en todos los lugares habitados del país.
14 I will feed them with good pasture, and their fold shall be upon the mountains of the height of Israel. There they shall lie down in a good fold, and on fat pasture they shall feed upon the mountains of Israel.
Los alimentaré con buenos pastos, y su redil estará en los montes de la altura de Israel. Allí se acostarán en un buen redil. Se alimentarán con ricos pastos en los montes de Israel.
15 I myself will be the shepherd of my sheep, and I will cause them to lie down, says the lord Jehovah.
Yo mismo seré el pastor de mis ovejas, y haré que se acuesten”, dice el Señor Yahvé.
16 I will seek that which was lost, and will bring back that which was driven away, and will bind up that which was broken, and will strengthen that which was sick, but I will destroy the fat and the strong. I will feed them in justice.
“Buscaré a la que se perdió, haré volver a la que fue expulsada, vendaré a la que estaba rota y fortaleceré a la que estaba enferma; pero destruiré a la gorda y a la fuerte. Los alimentaré con justicia”.
17 And as for you, O my flock, thus says the lord Jehovah: Behold, I judge between sheep and sheep, the rams and the he-goats.
“En cuanto a ustedes, oh rebaño mío, el Señor Yahvé dice: ‘He aquí que yo juzgo entre oveja y oveja, los carneros y los machos cabríos.
18 Does it seem a small thing to you to have fed upon the good pasture, but ye must tread down with your feet the residue of your pasture, and to have drunk of the clear waters, but ye must foul the residue with your feet?
¿Os parece poca cosa haber comido el buen pasto, pero debéis pisar con vuestros pies el residuo de vuestro pasto? Y haber bebido de las aguas claras, pero debéis ensuciar el residuo con vuestros pies?
19 And as for my sheep, they eat that which ye have trodden with your feet, and they drink that which ye have fouled with your feet.
En cuanto a mis ovejas, comen lo que has pisado con tus pies, y beben lo que has ensuciado con tus pies.
20 Therefore thus says the lord Jehovah to them: Behold, I, even I, will judge between the fat sheep and the lean sheep.
“Por eso el Señor Yahvé les dice: ‘He aquí que yo, yo mismo, juzgaré entre la oveja gorda y la oveja flaca.
21 Because ye thrust with side and with shoulder, and push all the diseased with your horns, till ye have scattered them abroad,
Porque empujáis con el costado y con el hombro, y empujáis a todas las enfermas con vuestros cuernos, hasta dispersarlas,
22 therefore I will save my flock, and they shall no more be a prey. And I will judge between sheep and sheep.
por eso salvaré a mi rebaño, y ya no será una presa. Yo juzgaré entre oveja y oveja.
23 And I will set up one shepherd over them, and he shall feed them, even my servant David. He shall feed them, and he shall be their shepherd.
Pondré un solo pastor sobre ellas, y él las apacentará, mi siervo David. Él las apacentará y será su pastor.
24 And I, Jehovah, will be their God, and my servant David ruler among them. I, Jehovah, have spoken it.
Yo, Yahvé, seré su Dios, y mi siervo David príncipe entre ellos. Yo, Yahvé, lo he dicho.
25 And I will make a covenant of peace with them, and will cause evil beasts to cease out of the land, and they shall dwell securely in the wilderness, and sleep in the woods.
“‘Haré con ellos un pacto de paz, y haré que los animales malignos cesen de la tierra. Habitarán con seguridad en el desierto y dormirán en los bosques.
26 And I will make them and the places round about my hill a blessing, and I will cause the shower to come down in its season; there shall be showers of blessing.
Haré que ellos y los lugares alrededor de mi colina sean una bendición. Haré que la lluvia caiga en su tiempo. Habrá lluvias de bendición.
27 And the tree of the field shall yield its fruit, and the earth shall yield its increase, and they shall be secure in their land. And they shall know that I am Jehovah when I have broken the bars of their yoke, and have delivered them out of the hand of those who made bondmen of them.
El árbol del campo dará su fruto, y la tierra dará su cosecha, y estarán seguros en su tierra. Entonces sabrán que yo soy Yahvé, cuando haya roto las barras de su yugo y los haya librado de la mano de quienes los esclavizaron.
28 And they shall no more be a prey to the nations, nor shall the beasts of the earth devour them, but they shall dwell securely, and none shall make them afraid.
Ya no serán presa de las naciones, ni los animales de la tierra los devorarán, sino que habitarán con seguridad, y nadie los atemorizará.
29 And I will raise up to them a plantation for renown, and they shall no more be consumed with famine in the land, nor bear the shame of the nations any more.
Les levantaré una plantación de renombre, y ya no serán consumidos por el hambre en la tierra, ni soportarán más la vergüenza de las naciones.
30 And they shall know that I, Jehovah, their God am with them, and that they, the house of Israel, are my people, says the lord Jehovah.
Sabrán que yo, Yahvé, su Dios, estoy con ellos, y que ellos, la casa de Israel, son mi pueblo, dice el Señor Yahvé.
31 And ye my sheep, the sheep of my pasture, are men, and I am your God, says the lord Jehovah.
Vosotros, mis ovejas, las ovejas de mi prado, sois hombres, y yo soy vuestro Dios’, dice el Señor Yahvé”.
