< Zechariah 11 >

1 Open thy doors, O Lebanon, that the fire may devour thy cedars.
Lukatam dagiti ruanganmo, O Libano, tapno ikisap ti apuy dagiti kayom a sedro!
2 Wail, O fir tree, for the cedar is fallen, because the fine ones are destroyed. Wail, O ye oaks of Bashan, for the strong forest has come down.
Agdung-awkayo a kayo a saleng ta natuangen dagiti kayo a sedro! Nadadaelen dagiti nadayag a kayo! Agdung-awkayo, dakayo a lugo ti Basan, ta napukanen ti nasamek a kabakiran.
3 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 laid waste.
Aganug-og dagiti parapastor, ta nadadaelen ti nalangto a pagpaarabanda! Agngernger ti urbon a leon, ta nadadaelen ti bakir ti Karayan Jordan!
4 Thus said Jehovah my God: Feed the flock of slaughter,
Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Diosko: “Kas iti maysa a parapastor, bantayam dagiti karnero a nairanta a maparti!
5 whose possessors kill them, and hold themselves not guilty. And those who sell them say, Blessed be Jehovah, for I am rich, and their own shepherds pity them not.
(Partien ida dagiti manggatang kadakuada ket saanda a madusa, ket kuna dagiti mangilako kadakuada, 'Madaydayaw ni Yahweh! Bimmaknangak!' gapu ta awan asi kadagiti karnero dagiti parapastor dagiti akinkukua kadagiti arban.)
6 For I will no more pity the inhabitants of the land, says Jehovah. But, lo, I will deliver the men each one into his neighbor's hand, and into the hand of his king. And they shall smite the land, and I will not deliver them out of their hand.
Ta saankon a kaasian dagiti agnanaed iti daga!”— daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh. “Kitaem! Siak a mismo ti mangiyawat iti tunggal tao iti pannakabalin ti kaarrubana ken arina. Ibadebaddekdanto ti daga. Saankonto nga ispalen ti Juda iti pannakabalinda.”
7 So I fed the flock of slaughter, truly the poor of the flock. And I took to me two staves, the one I called Beauty, and the other I called Bands, and I fed the flock.
Isu a nagbalinak a parapastor iti arban a nairanta a maparti, para kadagiti gimmatang ken naglako kadagiti karnero. Nangalaak iti dua a sarukod; pinanaganak ti maysa iti “Parabur” ken ti sabali iti “Panagkaykaysa.” Iti kastoy a wagas ti panangipastorko iti arban.
8 And I cut off the three shepherds in one month, for my soul was weary of them, and their soul also loathed me.
Iti las-ud ti maysa a bulan, pinapanawko dagiti tallo a parapastor. Ket napukawen ti anusko kadagiti akinkukua kadagiti karnero, gapu ta kinaguradak met.
9 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 one the flesh of another.
Ket kinunak kadagiti akinkukua, “Saanakon nga agtrabaho a kas parapastoryo. Dagiti karnero a matmatay - bay-ak ida a matay; dagiti mapukpukaw a karnero— bay-ak a mapukaw. Bay-ak a kanen dagiti natda a karnero ti lasag ti padada a karnero.”
10 And I took my staff Beauty, and cut it apart, that I might break my covenant which I had made with all the peoples.
Isu nga innalak ti sarukodko a “Parabur” ket tinukkolko daytoy a mangwaswas iti katulagan nga inaramidko kadagiti amin a tribuk.
11 And it was broken in that day, and thus the poor of the flock who gave heed to me knew that it was the word of Jehovah.
Iti dayta nga aldaw, nawaswas ti tulag, ket ammo dagiti aggatgatang ken aglaklako iti karnero ken dagiti mangkitkita kaniak a nagsao ni Yahweh.
12 And I said to them, If ye think good, give me my wage, and if not, forbear. So they weighed for my wage thirty pieces of silver.
Kinunak kadakuada, “No mayatkayo, itedyo ti tangdanko. Ngem no saan, saanyo nga aramiden daytoy.” Isu a binilangda ti tangdanko—tallopulo a pidaso a pirak.
13 And Jehovah said to me, Cast it to the potter, the good price that I was valued by them. And I took the thirty pieces of silver, and cast them to the potter in the house of Jehovah.
Ket kinuna kaniak ni Yahweh, “Ikabilmo ti pirak iti siled a pagiduldulinan, ti dakkel a gatad nga impagarupda a kapategmo!” Isu nga innalak ti tallopulo a pidaso a pirak ket indulinko iti siled a pagiduldulinan iti balay ni Yahweh.
14 Then I cut apart my other staff, even Bands, that I might break the brotherhood between Judah and Israel.
Kalpasanna, tinukkolko ti maikadua a sarukodko a “Panagkaykaysa,” a mangdadael iti panagkaykaysa iti nagbaetan ti Juda ken Israel.
15 And Jehovah said to me, Take to thee yet again the instruments of a foolish shepherd.
Kinuna ni Yahweh kaniak, “Alaem manen dagiti alikamen ti maag a parapastor,
16 For, lo, I will raise up a shepherd in the land, who will not visit those who are cut off, nor will he 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, and will tear their hoofs in pieces.
ta adtoy, mangdutokakon iti maysa a parapastor iti daga. Saannanto nga aywanan dagiti maparparigat a karnero. Saannanto a biroken dagiti napukaw a karnero, wenno agasan dagiti napilay a karnero. Saannanto a pakanen dagiti nasalun-at a karnero, ngem ketdi, kanenna ti lasag ti napalukmeg a karnero ken uksotennanto dagiti kukoda.
17 Woe to the worthless shepherd who leaves the flock! The sword shall be upon his arm, and upon his right eye. His arm shall be entirely dried up, and his right eye shall be utterly darkened.
Asi pay ti awan serserbina a parapastor a nangbaybay-a iti arban! Umay koma ti kabusorna a mangdangran iti takkiagna ken mangsulek iti makannawan a matana! Mapukaw koma ti pigsa iti takkiagna, ken agbulsekto koma ti makannawan a matana!”
