Ezekiel 34
1 Then the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:
2 “Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel. Prophesy and say to them, 'The Lord Yahweh says this to the shepherds: Woe to the shepherds of Israel who are shepherding themselves. Should not shepherds guard the flock?
Fili hominis propheta de pastoribus Israel: propheta, et dices pastoribus: Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Vae pastoribus Israel, qui pascebant semetipsos: nonne greges a pastoribus pascuntur?
3 You eat the fatty portions and you dress in wool. You slaughter the fatlings of the flock. You do not shepherd at all.
Lac comedebatis, et lanis operiebamini, et quod crassum erat occidebatis: gregem autem meum non pascebatis.
4 You have not strengthened those who have diseases, nor do you heal the ones who are ill. You do not bind up the ones who are broken, and you do not restore the outcasts or seek the lost. Instead, you rule over them through strength and violence.
Quod infirmum fuit non consolidastis, et quod aegrotum non sanastis, quod confractum est non alligastis, et quod abiectum est non reduxistis, et quod perierat non quaesistis: sed cum austeritate imperabatis eis, et cum potentia.
5 Then they were scattered without a shepherd, and they became food for all the living beasts in the fields, after they were scattered.
Et dispersae sunt oves meae, eo quod non esset pastor: et factae sunt in devorationem omnium bestiarum agri, et dispersae sunt.
6 My flock strays on all of the mountains and on every high hill, and it is dispersed over the entire surface of the earth. Yet no one is searching for them.
Erraverunt greges mei in cunctis montibus, et in universo colle excelso: et super omnem faciem terrae dispersi sunt greges mei, et non erat qui requireret, non erat, inquam, qui requireret.
7 Therefore, shepherds, hear the word of Yahweh:
Propterea pastores audite verbum Domini:
8 As I live—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration—because my flock has become plunder and food for all the beasts in the fields, because there was no shepherd and none of my shepherds sought my flock, but the shepherds guarded themselves and did not shepherd my flock.
Vivo ego, dicit Dominus Deus: quia pro eo quod facti sunt greges mei in rapinam, et oves meae in devorationem omnium bestiarum agri, eo quod non esset pastor (neque enim quaesierunt pastores mei gregem meum: ) sed pascebant pastores semetipsos, et greges meos non pascebant:
9 Therefore, shepherds, hear the word of Yahweh:
propterea pastores audite verbum Domini:
10 The Lord Yahweh says this: Behold! I am against the shepherds, and I will require my flock from their hand. Then I will dismiss them from shepherding the flock; neither will the shepherds any longer shepherd themselves since I will take away my flock from their mouths, so that my flock will no longer be food for them.
Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego ipse super pastores requiram gregem meum de manu eorum, et cessare faciam eos ut ultra non pascant gregem, nec pascant amplius pastores semetipsos: et liberabo gregem meum de ore eorum: et non erit ultra eis in escam.
11 For the Lord Yahweh says this: Behold! I myself will seek out my flock and I will look after them,
Quia haec dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego ipse requiram oves meas, et visitabo eas.
12 like a shepherd seeking his flock on the day he is within the midst of his scattered flock. Thus I will seek my flock, and I will rescue them from all the places where they were scattered on the day of clouds and darkness.
Sicut visitat pastor gregem suum in die, quando fuerit in medio ovium suarum dissipatarum: sic visitabo oves meas, et liberabo eas de omnibus locis, in quibus dispersae fuerant in die nubis, et caliginis.
13 Then I will bring them out from among the peoples; I will gather them from the lands and bring them to their land. I will put them in pastures on the mountainsides of Israel, by the streams, and in every settlement in the land.
Et educam eas de populis, et congregabo eas de terris, et inducam eas in terram suam: et pascam eas in montibus Israel, in rivis, et in cunctis sedibus terrae.
14 I will put them in good pastures; the high mountains of Israel will be their grazing places. They will lie down there in good places for grazing, in abundant pastures, and they will graze on the mountains of Israel.
In pascuis uberrimis pascam eas, et in montibus excelsis Israel erunt pascua earum: ibi requiescent in herbis virentibus, et in pascuis pinguibus pascentur super montes Israel.
15 I myself will shepherd my flock, and I myself will make them lie down—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration—
Ego pascam oves meas: et ego eas accubare faciam, dicit Dominus Deus.
16 I will seek the lost and restore the outcast. I will bind up the broken sheep and heal the sick sheep but the fat and the strong I will destroy. I will shepherd with justice.
Quod perierat requiram, et quod abiectum erat reducam, et quod confractum fuerat alligabo, et quod infirmum fuerat consolidabo, et quod pingue et forte custodiam: et pascam illas in iudicio.
17 So now you, my flock—this is what the Lord Yahweh says—behold, I will be a judge between sheep and sheep and between rams and male goats.
Vos autem greges mei, haec dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego iudico inter pecus et pecus, arietum, et hircorum.
18 Is it not enough to feed on the good pasture, that you must trample down with your feet what is left of the pasture; and to drink from clear waters, that you must muddy the rivers with your feet?
Nonne satis vobis erat pascua bona depasci? insuper et reliquias pascuarum vestrarum conculcastis pedibus vestris: et cum purissimam aquam biberetis, reliquam pedibus vestris turbabatis.
19 Must my sheep eat what you have trampled with your feet, and drink what you have muddied with your feet?
Et oves meae his, quae conculcata pedibus vestris fuerant, pascebantur: et quae pedes vestri turbaverant, haec bibebant.
20 Therefore the Lord Yahweh says this to them: Behold! I myself will judge between the fat sheep and the thin ones,
Propterea haec dicit Dominus Deus ad vos: Ecce ego ipse iudico inter pecus pingue, et macilentum:
21 for you have pushed them with your sides and shoulders, and you have gored all of the weak ones with your horns until you have scattered them away from the land.
pro eo quod lateribus, et humeris impingebatis, et cornibus vestris ventilabatis omnia infirma pecora, donec dispergerentur foras:
22 I will save my flock and they will no longer be plunder, and I will judge between one sheep and another!
salvabo gregem meum, et non erit ultra in rapinam, et iudicabo inter pecus et pecus.
23 I will set over them one shepherd, my servant David. He will shepherd them, he will feed them, and he will be their shepherd.
ET SUSCITABO SUPER EAS PASTOREM UNUM, qui pascat eas, servum meum David: ipse pascet eas, et ipse erit eis in pastorem.
24 For I, Yahweh, will be their God, and my servant David will be a prince among them—I, Yahweh, have declared this.
Ego autem Dominus ero eis in Deum: et servus meus David princeps in medio eorum: ego Dominus locutus sum.
25 Then I will make a covenant of peace with them and remove the evil wild animals from the land, so that they will live securely in the wilderness and safely sleep in the forests.
Et faciam cum eis pactum pacis, et cessare faciam bestias pessimas de terra: et qui habitant in deserto, securi dormient in saltibus.
26 I will also bring blessings on them and on the places around my hill, for I will send out showers in due season. These will be showers of blessing.
Et ponam eos in circuitu collis mei benedictionem: et deducam imbrem in tempore suo: et pluviae benedictionis erunt.
27 Then the trees of the field will produce their fruit, and the earth will yield its produce. My sheep will be secure in their land; then they will know that I am Yahweh, when I break the bars of their yoke, and when I rescue them from the hand of those who enslaved them.
Et dabit lignum agri fructum suum, et terra dabit germen suum, et erunt in terra sua absque timore: et scient quia ego Dominus, cum contrivero catenas iugi eorum, et eruero eos de manu imperantium sibi.
28 They will no longer be plunder for the nations, and the wild animals on the earth will no longer devour them. For they will live securely, and no one will frighten them.
Et non erunt ultra in rapinam in Gentibus, neque bestiae terrae devorabunt eos: sed habitabunt confidenter absque ullo terrore.
29 For I will provide them a land known for its crops; so they will not be victims of famine in the land, and they will not bear the scorn of the nations.
Et suscitabo eis germen nominatum: et non erunt ultra imminuti fame in terra, neque portabunt ultra opprobrium Gentium.
30 Then they will know that I, Yahweh their God, am with them. They are my people, the house of Israel—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.
Et scient quia ego Dominus Deus eorum cum eis, et ipsi populus meus domus Israel: ait Dominus Deus.
31 For you are my sheep, the flock of my pasture, and my people, and I am your God—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.'”
Vos autem greges mei, greges pascuae meae homines estis: et ego Dominus Deus vester, dicit Dominus Deus.
