Zechariah 11

1 Open your doors, Lebanon, that the fire may devour your cedars.

¡O Líbano! abre tus puertas, y queme fuego tus cedros.

2 Wail, fir tree, for the cedar has fallen, because the stately ones are destroyed. Wail, you oaks of Bashan, for the strong forest has come down.

Aulla, o! haya, porque el cedro cayó, porque los magníficos son talados. Aullád, alcornoques de Basán, porque el fuerte monte es derribado.

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 ruined.

Voz de aullido de pastores se oyó; porque su magnificencia es asolada: estruendo de bramido de cachorros de leones, porque la soberbia del Jordán es asolada.

4 Thus says the LORD my God: "Feed the flock of slaughter.

Así dijo Jehová mi Dios: Apacienta las ovejas de la matanza;

5 Their buyers slaughter them, and go unpunished. Those who sell them say, 'Blessed be the LORD, for I am rich;' and their own shepherds do not pity them.

Las cuales mataban sus compradores, y no se culpaban; y el que las vendía, decía: Bendito sea Jehová, que he enriquecido: ni sus pastores tenían de ellas piedad.

6 For I will no more pity the inhabitants of the land," says the LORD; "but, look, I will deliver the men everyone into his neighbor's hand, and into the hand of his king. They will strike the land, and out of their hand I will not deliver them."

Por tanto no tendré piedad más de los moradores de la tierra, dice Jehová; porque he aquí que yo entregaré los hombres, cada cual en mano de su compañero, y en mano de su rey; y quebrantarán la tierra, y yo no libraré de sus manos.

7 So I fed the flock of slaughter, especially the oppressed of the flock. I took for myself two staffs. The one I called "Favor," and the other I called "Union," and I fed the flock.

Y apacentaré las ovejas de la matanza, es a saber, los pobres del rebaño. Y porque me tomé dos cayados, al uno puse por nombre Noam Suavidad, y al otro Hobelim Ataduras; y apacenté las ovejas.

8 I cut off the three shepherds in one month; for my soul was weary of them, and their soul also loathed me.

E hice matar tres pastores en un mes, y mi alma se angustió por ellos, también el alma de ellos me aborreció a mí.

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 other's flesh."

Y dije: No os apacentaré más: la que muriere, muera; y la que se perdiere, se pierda; y las que quedaren, que cada una coma la carne de su compañera.

10 I took my staff Favor, and cut it apart, that I might break my covenant that I had made with all the peoples.

Y tomé mi cayado Noam Suavidad, y lo quebré, para deshacer mi concierto que concerté con todos los pueblos.

11 It was broken in that day; and thus the poor of the flock that listened to me knew that it was the word of the LORD.

Y fue deshecho en ese día, y así conocieron los pobres del rebaño que miran a mí, que era palabra de Jehová.

12 I said to them, "If you think it best, give me my wages; and if not, keep them." So they weighed for my wages thirty pieces of silver.

Y díjeles: Si os parece bien, dádme mi salario; y si no, dejádlo. Y apreciaron mi salario en treinta piezas de plata.

13 The LORD said to me, "Throw it to the potter, the handsome price that I was valued at by them." I took the thirty pieces of silver, and threw them to the potter, in the house of the LORD.

Y díjome Jehová: Échalo al tesorero, hermoso precio con que me han apreciado. Y tomé las treinta piezas de plata, y echélas en la casa de Jehová al tesorero.

14 Then I cut apart my other staff, even Union, that I might break the brotherhood between Judah and Israel.

Y quebré el otro mi cayado Hobelim Ataduras, para romper la hermandad entre Judá e Israel.

15 The LORD said to me, "Take for yourself yet again the equipment of a foolish shepherd.

Y díjome Jehová: Tómate aun hato de pastor insensato.

16 For, look, I will raise up a shepherd in the land, who will not visit those who are cut off, neither will 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 sheep, and will tear their hoofs in pieces.

Porque he aquí que yo levanto pastor en la tierra, que no visitará las perdidas, no buscará la pequeña, no curará la perniquebrada, ni llevará a cuestas la cansada: mas comerse ha la carne de la gruesa, y romperá sus uñas.

17 Woe to the worthless shepherd who leaves the flock. The sword will be on his arm, and on his right eye. His arm will be completely withered, and his right eye will be totally blinded."

Mal haya el pastor de nada, que deja el ganado: espada sobre su brazo, y sobre su ojo derecho: secándose se secará su brazo, y su ojo derecho oscureciéndose será oscurecido.
