Zechariah 11
1 Open thy doores, O Lebanon, and the fire shall deuoure thy cedars.
Lebanon nang loh na thohkhaih ong lamtah, na lamphai te hmai loh hlawp saeh.
2 Houle, firre trees: for the cedar is fallen, because all the mightie are destroyed: houle ye, O okes of Bashan, for ye defesed forest is cut downe.
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 There is the voyce of the houling of the shepherdes: for their glorie is destroyed: the voyce of ye roaring of lyons whelpes: for the pride of Iorden is destroyed.
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 Thus sayeth the Lord my God, Feede the sheepe of the slaughter.
Kai kah Pathen Yahweh loh he ni a thui. Ngawnnah dongkah boiva te luem sak laeh.
5 They that possesse them, slay them and sinne not: and they that sell them, say, Blessed be the Lord: for I am riche, and their owne shepherds spare them not.
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 Surely I wil no more spare those that dwell in the land, sayth the Lord: but loe, I will deliuer the men euery one into his neighbours hand, and into the hand of his King: and they shall smite the land, and out of their hands I wil not deliuer them.
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 For I fed the sheepe of slaughter, euen the poore of the flocke, and I tooke vnto me two staues: the one I called Beautie, and the other I called Bandes, and I fed the sheepe.
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 Three shepherdes also I cut off in one moneth, and my soule lothed them, and their soule abhorred 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 Then said I, I will not feede you: that that dyeth, let it dye: and that that perisheth, let it perish: and let the remnant eate, euery one the flesh of his neighbour.
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 tooke my staffe, euen Beautie, and brake it, that I might disanull my couenant, which I had made with all people.
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 in that day: and so the poore of the sheepe that waited vpon me, knew that it was the worde 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 vnto them, If ye thinke it good, giue me my wages: and if no, leaue off: so they weighed for my wages thirtie pieces of siluer.
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 vnto me, Cast it vnto the potter: a goodly price, that I was valued at of them. And I tooke the thirtie pieces of siluer, and cast them to the potter 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 brake I mine other staffe, euen the Bandes, that I might dissolue the brotherhood betweene Iudah and Israel.
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 vnto me, Take to thee yet the instruments of a foolish shepheard.
Te phoeiah BOEIPA loh kai taengah, “Tu dawn ang kah hnopai te namah loh koep loh pah.
16 For loe, I will rayse vp a shepheard in the land, which shall not looke for the thing, that is lost, nor seeke the tender lambes, nor heale that that is hurt, nor feede that that standeth vp: but he shall eate the flesh of the fat, and teare their clawes in pieces.
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 O idole shepheard that leaueth the flocke: the sword shalbe vpon his arme, and vpon his right eye. His arme shall be cleane dryed vp, and his right eye shall be vtterly darkened.
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.
