Zechariah 11
1 Open thy doores, O Lebanon, and the fire shall deuoure thy cedars.
黎巴嫩! 打開你的門，讓火來吞滅你的香柏!
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.
松樹，哀號吧! 因為香柏已被伐倒，高大者已被摧毀；巴商的橡樹，哀號吧! 因為不可深入的樹林全已倒下。
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.
聽，牧人在哀號，因為他們的的光榮己被破壞；聽，幼獅在咆哮，因為約旦的豪華已遭摧毀。
4 Thus sayeth the Lord my God, Feede the sheepe of the slaughter.
上主，我的天主這樣說：「你要牧放這待宰的羊群!
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.
那些購買牠們來宰殺的，以為無過；那賣出他們的的還說；上主應受讚美，因為我成了富翁! 那牧放牠們的，毫不憐惜牠們。
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.
我也決不再憐恤這地上的居民──上主的斷語；看，我要將每個人交在他的的牧人手中．和他的君王手中，讓他們毀滅這地， 決不由他們手中搶救。
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.
這樣我就代替賣羊人牧放待宰的羊群。我取了兩根棍杖：一根我稱它為「愛護」，一根我叫它作「聯合」；我這樣牧放了羊群。
8 Three shepherdes also I cut off in one moneth, and my soule lothed them, and their soule abhorred me.
在一個月內，我竟廢除了三個牧人；終於我的人神也厭煩了羊群，而他們的心也厭惡我。
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.
我於是說：我不願再失放你們：那要死的，就讓他死去；那要喪亡的，就讓他喪亡；那劓剩下的，就讓他們彼此吞食。
10 And I tooke my staffe, euen Beautie, and brake it, that I might disanull my couenant, which I had made with all people.
以後，我就拿起我的棍杖「愛護」，把它折斷，藉以廢除我與眾百姓所結的盟約。
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.
盟約便在那一天廢除了；於是那些注視我的羊販子，便知道這是上主的話。
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.
以後，我對他們說：如果你們看著好，就給我工資，不然，就算了。他們於是衡量了二十兩銀子作我的工資。
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.
那時上主對我說：「你把他們對我所佔計的高價投入寶內! 我就是拿了那三十兩銀子，投入上主殿內寶庫裏
14 Then brake I mine other staffe, euen the Bandes, that I might dissolue the brotherhood betweene Iudah and Israel.
我又折斷我的另一根棍杖「聯合」，藉以廢除與以色列間的手足情誼。
15 And the Lord said vnto me, Take to thee yet the instruments of a foolish shepheard.
上主又對我說：「你再取一套愚昧收入的服裝，
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.
因為．看，我將在地上興起一個牧人：那喪失的，他不去尋找；那迷途的，他不去搜索；那受傷的，他不去醫治；那病弱的，他不去扶持；卻要擇肥而食，並且剝去牠們的蹄子。
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.
禍哉! 那拋棄羊群的愚昧牧人! 願刀劍落在他的臂膊和他的右眼上! 願他的臂膊枯槁! 願他的右眼完全失明!
