< Zechariah 11 >
1 [You people of] [APO] Lebanon [should] open your gates, [because you will not be able to stop] fire from burning your cedar [trees]!
Otevři, Libáne, vrata svá, ať zžíře oheň cedry tvé.
2 Your cypress/pine [trees] [APO] should [also] wail because the cedar [trees] have been cut down. Those glorious/great trees have been destroyed. The oak trees in the Bashan [region] should also wail, because the other trees in the forest have been cut down.
Kvěl jedle, nebo padl cedr, nebo znamenití vypléněni jsou; kvělte dubové Bázanští, nebo klesl les ohražený.
3 And listen to the shepherds crying because the fertile pastures have been ruined. Listen to the lions roar; they roar because the delightful forest [where they live] near the Jordan [River] has been ruined.
Hlas kvílení pastýřů, proto že popléněno důstojenství jejich; hlas řvání lvů, proto že popléněna pýcha Jordánu.
4 This is what Yahweh my God said [to me]: “[I want you to] become a shepherd for a flock [of sheep that are about] to be slaughtered.
Takto praví Hospodin Bůh můj: Pas ovce tyto k zbití oddané,
5 The people who are going to buy the sheep will kill the sheep, and they will not be punished. Those who are selling the sheep say, ‘[I] praise Yahweh, [because] I will become rich!’ Even the shepherds do not feel sorry for the sheep.
Kteříž držitelé jejich mordují, aniž bývají obviňováni, a kdož je prodávají, říkají: Požehnaný Hospodin, že jsme zbohatli, a kteříž je pasou, nemají lítosti nad nimi.
6 And similarly, I no longer feel sorry for the people of this country. I am going to allow many of them [HYP] to be captured by other people or by their king. Those who capture them will ruin this country, and I will not rescue any [of the people].”
Protož nebudu míti lítosti více nad obyvateli této země, praví Hospodin, ale aj, já uvedu ty lidi jednoho druhému v ruku, a v ruku krále jejich. I budou potírati zemi tuto, a nevytrhnu jí z ruky jejich.
7 So I became the shepherd of a flock [of sheep that were about] to be slaughtered [for their meat to be sold] to the dealers. [I took good care of the sheep, even the ones that were the weakest sheep. Then] I took two [shepherds’] /walking sticks). I named the one [staff] ‘Kindness’ and the other [staff] ‘Union’. And I took good care of the sheep.
Nebo jsem pásl ovce k zbití oddané, totiž vás chudé toho stáda, a vzav sobě dvě hole, nazval jsem jednu utěšením, a druhou jsem nazval svazujících. A pásl jsem, pravím, ty ovce,
8 But the three shepherds [who had been working with me] detested me, and I became impatient with them. Within one month I (dismissed/got rid of) those shepherds.
A zahladil jsem tři pastýře měsíce jednoho, ale duše má stýskala sobě s nimi, proto že duše jejich nenáviděla mne.
9 So I said [to the dealers], “I will no [longer] be the shepherd. I will allow the ones that are dying to die. I will allow the ones that are getting lost to get lost. And I will not prevent those that remain from destroying each other.”
Pročež řekl jsem: Nebudu vás pásti. Kteráž umříti má, nechť umře, a kteráž má vyhlazena býti, nechť jest vyhlazena, a jiné nechažť jedí maso jedna druhé.
10 Then I took the staff that I had named ‘Kindness’ and I broke it. [That showed that Yahweh] was annulling/canceling the agreement that he had made with all the people-groups.
Protož vzav hůl svou utěšení, posekal jsem ji, zrušiv smlouvu svou, kterouž jsem učinil se vším tím lidem.
11 So that agreement was ended immediately. And the men who bought and sold sheep who were watching me knew [by seeing what I was doing] that I was giving them a message from Yahweh.
A v ten den, když zrušena byla, právě poznali chudí toho stáda, kteříž na mne pozor měli, že řeč Hospodinova jest.
12 I told them, “If you think it is what you should do, pay me [for taking care of the sheep]. If you do not think that is what you should do, do not pay me.” So they paid me [only] 30 pieces of silver.
Nebo jsem řekl jim: Jestliže se vám vidí, dejte mzdu mou; pakli nic, nechte tak. I odvážili mzdu mou třidceti stříbrných.
13 Then Yahweh said to me, “[That is a ridiculously small amount of money that they have paid you]! [So] throw it to the man who makes clay pots!” So I took the silver to the temple of Yahweh, and I threw it in the chest where the offerings/money is kept.
I řekl mi Hospodin: Povrz je před hrnčíře. Znamenitá mzda, kterouž jsem tak draze šacován od nich. A tak vzav třidceti stříbrných, uvrhl jsem je v domě Hospodinově před hrnčíře.
14 Then I broke my second staff, [the one that I named] ‘Union’. That [indicated that] Judah and Israel would no longer be united.
Potom posekal jsem hůl svou druhou svazujících, zrušiv bratrství mezi Judou a mezi Izraelem.
15 Then Yahweh said to me, “Take again the things that a foolish shepherd uses,
I řekl mi Hospodin: Vezmi sobě ještě oruží pastýře bláznivého.
16 because I am going to appoint a new king for the people, [one who will not take care of my people. He will be like a foolish shepherd]: [MET] He will not take care of those who are dying, those who are very young, those who have been injured, or those who do not have enough food. Instead, he will [treat them very cruelly, like a shepherd who would] [MET] kill and eat the best sheep and tear off their hoofs.
Nebo aj, já vzbudím pastýře v této zemi. Pobloudilých nebude navštěvovati, ani jehňátka hledati, ani což polámaného jest, léčiti, ani toho, což se zastavuje, nositi, ale maso toho, což tučnějšího jest, jísti bude, a kopyta jejich poláme.
17 But terrible things will happen to that foolish/useless king who abandons the people [MET] over whom he rules. [His enemies] will strike his arm and his right eye with their swords. [The result will be that] he will have no strength in his arm, and his right eye will become completely blind.”
Běda pastýři tomu ničemnému, kterýž opouští stádo. Meč na rameno jeho a na oko pravé jeho, rámě jeho docela uschne, a oko pravé jeho naprosto zatmí se.
