Zechariah 11
1 Let your doors be open, O Lebanon, so that fire may be burning among your cedars.
Lebanon nang loh na thohkhaih ong lamtah, na lamphai te hmai loh hlawp saeh.
2 Give a cry of grief, O fir-tree, for the fall of the cedar, because the great ones have been made low: give cries of grief, O you oaks of Bashan, for the strong trees of the wood have come down.
Lamphai loh a cungku dongah hmaical khaw rhung saeh. Bashan thingnu aka khuet khaw rhoelrha uh dongah rhung laeh saeh. Duup kah thingding a cakrhuet te bung coeng.
3 The sound of the crying of the keepers of the flock! for their glory is made waste: the sound of the loud crying of the young lions! for the pride of Jordan is made waste.
A bu a rhoelrha pah dongah boiva aka dawn kah rhungol olthang mah, Jordan kah hoemdamnah a rhoelrha pah dongah sathuengca kah kawknah ol rhoe mah.
4 This is what the Lord my God has said: Take care of the flock of death;
Kai kah Pathen Yahweh loh he ni a thui. Ngawnnah dongkah boiva te luem sak laeh.
5 Whose owners put them to death and have no sense of sin; and those who get a price for them say, May the Lord be praised for I have much wealth: and the keepers of the flock have no pity for them.
Amih kah a ngawn a lai uh dae a boe uh moenih. Amih aka yoi tah BOEIPA te a uem uh tih, “Ka boei,” a ti uh. Te dongah amih aka dawn long khaw amih te lungma ti pawh.
6 For I will have no more pity for the people of the land, says the Lord; but I will give up everyone into his neighbour's hand and into the hand of his king: and they will make the land waste, and I will not keep them safe from their hands.
Te dongah diklai khosa rhoek soah lungma ka ti voel moenih. He tah BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Kai loh hlang te ka yan coeng. Hlang boeih he a hui kut dongah, a manghai kut dongah ka tloeng. Te vaengah khohmuen te a soek uh akhaw amih kut lamloh ka huul mahpawh.
7 So I took care of the flock of death, for those who made profit out of the flock; and I took for myself two rods, naming one Beautiful, and the other Bands; and I took care of the flock.
Boiva he a mang a daeng tangkhuet dongah ngawnnah kah boiva te ka luem puei. Kamah loh conghol panit ka loh tih pakhat te mueithen ka sui, pakhat te cabol ka sui tih boiva te ka luem puei.
8 And in one month I put an end to the three keepers of the flock; for my soul was tired of them, and their souls were disgusted with me.
Hla khat ah boiva aka dawn pathum ka thup. Amih taengah ka hinglu pawn tih amih hinglu long khaw kai he n'tuei.
9 And I said, I will not take care of you: If death comes to any, let death be its fate; if any is cut off, let it be cut off; and let the rest take one another's flesh for food.
Te phoeiah, “Nangmih te kan luem puei mahpawh. Aka duek te duek saeh lamtah aka pat tah pat mai saeh. A sueng khaw huta loh a hui kah a saa te ca ngawn saeh,” ka ti.
10 And I took my rod Beautiful, cutting it in two, so that the Lord's agreement, which he had made with all the peoples, might be broken.
Te phoeiah kamah kah conghol mueithen te ka loh tih ka paipi aka phae taengah ka khaem pah. Te kah te pilnam boeih neh ka saii.
11 And it was broken on that day: and the sheep-traders, who were watching me, were certain that it was the word of the Lord.
Te khohnin ah a phae coeng. Te dongah boiva mang aka daeng sak loh kai aka ngaithuen BOEIPA kah ol ni tila a ming uh van.
12 And I said to them, If it seems good to you, give me my payment; and if not, do not give it. So they gave me my payment by weight, thirty shekels of silver.
Te phoeiah amih te, “Na mik dongah a then mak atah ka thapang m'pae uh lamtah a then pawt atah paa uh,” ka ti nah. Te dongah ka thapang tangka sawmthum han sang uh.
13 And the Lord said to me, Put it into the store-house, the price at which I was valued by them. And I took the thirty shekels of silver and put them into the store-house in the house of the Lord.
Te vaengah BOEIPA loh kai te, “Umponah tangpueng tah amsai hamla voeih pah,” a ti. Amih taeng lamkah tah ka kueinah dongah tangka sawmthum ka khuen tih BOEIPA im kah imsa taengah ka voeih pah.
14 Then I took my other rod, the one named Bands, cutting it in two, so that the relation of brothers between Judah and Israel might be broken.
Te phoeiah Judah laklo neh Israel laklo kah pacaboeina te paa sak hamla kamah kah conghol pabae, cabol te ka khaem.
15 And the Lord said to me, Take again the instruments of a foolish keeper of sheep.
Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh kai taengah, “Tu dawn ang kah hnopai te namah loh koep loh pah.
16 For see, I will put a sheep-keeper over the land, who will have no care for that which is cut off, and will not go in search of the wanderers, or make well what is broken, and he will not give food to that which is ill, but he will take for his food the flesh of the fat, and let their feet be broken.
Khohmuen ah tu aka dawn ka thoh coeng ne. Aka ving khaw tae pawt vetih a ca khaw toem mahpawh, aka khaem khaw toi mahpawh, aka pai khaw cangbam mahpawh. Tedae a saa toitup te a caak vetih a khomae a maeng pah ni.
17 A curse on the foolish keeper who goes away from the flock! the sword will be on his arm and on his right eye: his arm will become quite dry and his eye will be made completely dark.
Anunae, a honghi la aka dawn tih boiva aka hnoo aih. A ban neh a bantang mik dongah cunghang tlaeh ni. A ban te koh la koh saeh lamtah a bantang mik hmang la hmang saeh,” a ti.
