Zechariah 11
1 Open your doors, O Lebanon, that the fire may consume your cedars!
Oe Lebanon mon, nange anrikungnaw hah hmai a kak nahanelah, na takhangnaw hah paawng haw.
2 Wail, O cypress, for the cedar has fallen; the majestic trees are ruined! Wail, O oaks of Bashan, for the dense forest has been cut down!
Oe hmaicakung, anri kung a kamlei dawkvah khui haw. Thingkung aphu kaawmnaw teh koung a rawp toe. Oe kathenkungnaw, ratu dawk e thingkung dungradungnaw hai koung a rawp dawkvah khui haw.
3 Listen to the wailing of the shepherds, for their glory is in ruins. Listen to the roaring of the young lions, for the thickets of the Jordan are destroyed.
Tukhoumnaw ni yeirai aphu awh dawkvah a khui awh. Jordan tuipui e bawilennae a ro dawkvah sendeknaw a huk e pawlawk thai lah ao.
4 This is what the LORD my God says: “Pasture the flock marked for slaughter,
Kaie Jehovah Cathut ni a dei e teh, thei hanlah hmoun e hete tuhu naw hah kawk lah.
5 whose buyers slaughter them without remorse. Those who sell them say, ‘Blessed be the LORD, for I am rich!’ Even their own shepherds have no compassion on them.
Katawnkungnaw ni a thei awh teh ka yon tie kâpanuek awh hoeh. Kayawtnaw ni hai ka hmu thai e doeh ati awh teh BAWIPA teh yawhawinae awm naseh telah ati awh. Tukhoumnaw ni hai pahrenlungmanae tawn awh hoeh.
6 For I will no longer have compassion on the people of the land, declares the LORD, but behold, I will cause each man to fall into the hands of his neighbor and his king, who will devastate the land, and I will not deliver it from their hands.”
BAWIPA ni a dei e teh, Kai ni khocaramca naw bout ka pahren mahoeh. Pasai laipalah taminaw hah a imri naw e a kut dawk thoseh, siangpahrang e a kut dawk thoseh, ka hnawng vaiteh, ahnimouh ni ram pueng teh a rektap awh han. Ahnimae a kut dawk hoi kahlout sak mahoeh a ti.
7 So I pastured the flock marked for slaughter, especially the afflicted of the flock. Then I took for myself two staffs, calling one Favor and the other Union, and I pastured the flock.
Hottelah, thei han hmoun tangcoung e tuhu lah kaawm e ka roedeng e tu naw hah ka kawk.
8 And in one month I dismissed three shepherds. My soul grew impatient with the flock, and their souls also detested me.
Tukhoumkung kathum touh hai thapa yung touh dawk koung ka raphoe. Ahnimouh kecu dawk ka lungsaw thai hoeh. Ahnimouh ni hai kai teh na panuet awh.
9 Then I said, “I will no longer shepherd you. Let the dying die, and the perishing perish; and let those who remain devour one another’s flesh.”
Nangmouh teh bout na kawk awh mahoeh. Kadout e teh dout yawkaw naseh. Thei lah kaawm e hai thet a yawkaw naseh. Kacawie naw hai buet touh hoi buet touh kâkei a na yawkaw seh, telah a ti.
10 Next I took my staff called Favor and cut it in two, revoking the covenant I had made with all the nations.
Miphun puenghoi sak e lawkkamnae hah raphoe hanlah ka ngai dawkvah sonron meihawi ka la teh ka khoe.
11 It was revoked on that day, and so the afflicted of the flock who were watching me knew that it was the word of the LORD.
Hote lawkkamnae teh hat hnin vah a ro dawkvah Kai na kâuep e ka roedeng e tunaw teh BAWIPA lawk a thai panuek awh.
12 Then I told them, “If it seems right to you, give me my wages; but if not, keep them.” So they weighed out my wages, thirty pieces of silver.
Hahoi, Kai ni ka hmu hane kamcu e aphu poe hanelah nangmouh ni na ngai awh pawiteh, poe awh. Na ngai awh hoehpawiteh poe awh hanh telah ati teh, ahnimouh ni kai aphu na poe awh hanelah ngun tangka 30 touh a nue awh.
13 And the LORD said to me, “Throw it to the potter”—this magnificent price at which they valued me. So I took the thirty pieces of silver and threw them to the potter in the house of the LORD.
BAWIPA ni hote tangka teh hlaamkabonaw e hmalah tâkhawng pouh haw. Kai hanlah aphu na khoe a e tangka teh ek apap ati awh e patetlah, hote ngun tangka 30 touh hah ka la teh, BAWIPA e im dawk hlaamkabonaw e hmalah ka tâkhawng pouh.
14 Then I cut in two my second staff called Union, breaking the brotherhood between Judah and Israel.
Hat navah, Judah miphun hoi Isarel miphun huiko kamyawngnae raphoe ngainae kecu dawkvah sonron alouke hah ka la teh ka khoe.
15 And the LORD said to me: “Take up once more the equipment of a foolish shepherd.
Hathnukkhu, BAWIPA niyah ka pathu e tukhoumkung e hnopainaw hah lat haw.
16 For behold, I will raise up a shepherd in the land who will neither care for the lost, nor seek the young, nor heal the broken, nor sustain the healthy, but he will devour the flesh of the choice sheep and tear off their hooves.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, hote ram dawk tukhoumkung buet touh ka tâco sak han. Ahni ni thei lah kaawm e tu hah khenyawn mahoeh. Lam ka phen e hah tawng hoeh. Ka dam hoeh e a dam nahanlah khenyawn hoeh. Kangdout e kabawm hoeh. Kathâw e naw hah a ca han. A khoksamen hai a khoe pouh awh han.
17 Woe to the worthless shepherd, who deserts the flock! May a sword strike his arm and his right eye! May his arm be completely withered and his right eye utterly blinded!”
Tuhu hah ka pahnawt e ayawmyin e tukhoumkung teh a yawthout naseh. Ahnie a kut hoi aranglae mit dawkvah tahloi hoi hmâ a ca han. A kut thasainae teh khak a ke han. Aranglae mit hai a dawn han telah a ti.
