4 This is what Yahweh my God says, “Like a shepherd, watch over the flock set aside for slaughter!

thus to say LORD God my to pasture [obj] flock [the] slaughter

5 (The ones who buy them slaughter them and are not punished, and the ones who sell them say, 'Blessed be Yahweh! I have become rich!' for the shepherds working for the flocks' owners have no pity on them.)

which to buy them to kill them and not be guilty and to sell them to say to bless LORD and to enrich and to pasture their not to spare upon them

6 For I will no longer pity the inhabitants of the land!—this is Yahweh's declaration. See! I myself am about to turn over every person into the hand of his neighbor and into the hand of his king, and they will destroy the land and none of them will I deliver them from their hand.”

for not to spare still upon to dwell [the] land: country/planet utterance LORD and behold I to find [obj] [the] man man: anyone in/on/with hand: power neighbor his and in/on/with hand: power king his and to crush [obj] [the] land: country/planet and not to rescue from hand: power their

7 So I became the shepherd of the flock marked for slaughter, for those who dealt in sheep. I took two staffs; one staff I called “Favor” and the other I called “Unity.” In this way I shepherded the flock.

and to pasture [obj] flock [the] slaughter to/for so afflicted [the] flock and to take: take to/for me two rod to/for one to call: call by pleasantness and to/for one to call: call by union and to pasture [obj] [the] flock

and to hide [obj] three [the] to pasture in/on/with month one and be short soul: myself my in/on/with them and also soul: myself their to loath in/on/with me

9 Then I said to the owners, “I will not work as a shepherd for you any longer. The sheep that are dying—let them die; the sheep that are being destroyed—let them be destroyed. Let the sheep that remain each eat the flesh of its neighbor.”

and to say not to pasture [obj] you [the] to die to die and [the] to hide to hide and [the] to remain to eat woman: another [obj] flesh neighbor her

10 So I took my staff “Favor” and broke it to break the covenant that I had made with all of my tribes.

and to take: take [obj] rod my [obj] pleasantness and to cut down/off [obj] him to/for to break [obj] covenant my which to cut: make(covenant) with all [the] people

11 On that day the covenant was broken, and those who dealt in sheep and who were watching me knew that Yahweh had spoken.

12 I said to them, “If it seems good to you, pay me my wages. But if not, do not do it.” So they weighed out my wages—thirty pieces of silver.

and to say to(wards) them if be pleasing in/on/with eye: appearance your to give wages my and if not to cease and to weigh [obj] wages my thirty silver: money

13 Then Yahweh said to me, “Deposit the silver in the treasury, the excellent price at which they valued you!” So I took the thirty pieces of silver and deposited them in the treasury in the house of Yahweh.

14 Then I broke my second staff, “Unity,” to break the brotherhood between Judah and Israel.

and to cut down/off [obj] rod my [the] second [obj] [the] union to/for to break [obj] [the] brotherhood between Judah and between Israel

15 Yahweh said to me, “Again, take the equipment of a foolish shepherd for yourself,

and to say LORD to(wards) me still to take: take to/for you article/utensil to pasture foolish

16 for see, I am about to set in place a shepherd in the land. He will not care for the perishing sheep. He will not seek out the sheep gone missing, nor heal the crippled sheep. He will not feed the sheep that are healthy, but will eat the flesh of the fattened sheep and will tear off their hooves.

for behold I to arise: raise to pasture in/on/with land: country/planet [the] to hide not to reckon: visit [the] newborn not to seek and [the] to break not to heal [the] to stand not to sustain and flesh [the] fat to eat and hoof their to tear
