Zechariah 11
1 Open thy doors, O Lebanon, that the fire may devour thy cedars.
Odpri svoja vrata, oh Libanon, da bo ogenj lahko pogoltnil tvoje cedre.
2 Howl, fir-tree, for the cedar is fallen; because the mighty are laid waste: howl, O ye oaks of Bashan; for the forest of the vintage is come down.
Tuli cipresa, kajti cedra je padla, ker so mogočni oplenjeni. Tulite, oh vi, bašánski hrasti, kajti neprehoden gozd je posekan.
3 [There is] a voice of the howling of the shepherds; for their glory is destroyed: a voice of the roaring of young lions; for the pride of Jordan is laid waste.
Tam je glas tuljenja pastirjev, kajti njihova slava je oplenjena. Glas rjovenja mladih levov, kajti ponos Jordana je oplenjen.
4 Thus saith the LORD my God; Feed the flock of the slaughter;
Tako govori Gospod, moj Bog: »Hrani trop za zakol,
5 Whose possessors slay them, and hold themselves not guilty: and they that sell them say, Blessed [be] the LORD; for I am rich: and their own shepherds pity them not.
katerih lastniki jih ubijajo in se nimajo za krive; in tisti, ki jih prodajajo, pravijo: ›Blagoslovljen bodi Gospod, kajti bogat sem, ‹ in njihovi lastni pastirji jim ne prizanašajo.
6 For I will no more pity the inhabitants of the land, saith the LORD: but lo, I will deliver the men every one into his neighbor's hand, and into the hand of his king: and they shall smite the land, and out of their hand I will not deliver [them].
Kajti ne bom več prizanašal prebivalcem dežele, ‹ govori Gospod, ›temveč glej, izročil bom ljudi, vsakega v roko njegovega soseda in v roko njegovega kralja in udarili bodo deželo in iz njihove roke jih ne bom osvobodil.
7 And I will feed the flock of slaughter, [even] you, O poor of the flock. And I took to me two staffs; the one I called Beauty, and the other I called Bands; and I fed the flock.
Jaz bom pasel trop za zakol, celó vas, oh ubogi izmed tropa. Vzel sem si dve palici. Eno sem imenoval Lepota, drugo pa sem imenoval Vezi; in jaz sem pasel trop.
8 Three shepherds also I cut off in one month; and my soul lothed them, and their soul also abhorred me.
Tudi tri pastirje uničim v enem mesecu in moji duši so se gnusili in tudi njihova duša je zaničevala mene.
9 Then said I, I will not feed you: that which dieth, let it die; and that which is to be cut off, let it be cut off; and let the rest eat, every one the flesh of another.
Potem sem rekel: ›Ne bom vas pasel. Tisti, ki umira, naj umre in tisti, ki naj bi bil uničen, naj bo ta uničen, preostali pa naj jedo vsakdo meso drugega.
10 And I took my staff, [even] Beauty, and cut it asunder, that I might break my covenant which I had made with all the people.
Vzel sem svojo palico, celó Lepoto in jo zlomil, da bi lahko prelomil svojo zavezo, ki sem jo sklenil z vsem ljudstvom.
11 And it was broken in that day: and so the poor of the flock that waited upon me knew that it [was] the word of the LORD.
Ta je bila prelomljena na tisti dan.‹« In tako so ubogi iz tropa, ki so čakali name, vedeli, da je bila to Gospodova beseda.
12 And I said to them, If ye think good, give [me] my price; and if not, forbear. So they weighed for my price thirty [pieces] of silver.
Rekel sem jim: »Če mislite dobro, mi dajte moje plačilo, in če ne, opustite.« Tako so odtehtali za moje plačilo trideset koščkov srebra.
13 And the LORD said to me, Cast it to the potter: a goodly price that I was prized at by them. And I took the thirty [pieces] of silver, and cast them to the potter in the house of the LORD.
Gospod mi je rekel: »Vrzi to lončarju. Lepo plačilo, za katero so me ovrednotili.« Vzel sem trideset koščkov srebra in jih vrgel v Gospodovo hišo, k lončarju.
14 Then I cut asunder my other staff, [even] Bands, that I might break the brotherhood between Judah and Israel.
Potem sem zlomil svojo drugo palico, celó Vezi, da bi lahko prelomil bratstvo med Judom in Izraelom.
15 And the LORD said to me, Take to thee yet the instruments of a foolish shepherd.
Gospod mi je rekel: »K sebi vzemi še priprave nespametnega pastirja.
16 For lo, I will raise up a shepherd in the land, [who] shall not visit those that are cut off, neither shall seek the young one, nor heal that which is broken, nor feed that which standeth still: but he shall eat the flesh of the fat, and tear their claws in pieces.
Kajti glej, vzdignil bom pastirja v deželi, ki ne bo obiskoval tistih, ki so uničeni niti ne bo iskal mladih niti zdravil tega, kar je zlomljeno niti pasel tega, kar stoji mirno, temveč bo jedel meso rejenega in njihove parklje trgal na koščke.
17 Woe to the idle shepherd that leaveth the flock! the sword [shall be] upon his arm, and upon his right eye: his arm shall be wholly dried up, and his right eye shall be utterly darkened.
Gorje malikovalskemu pastirju, ki zapušča čredo! Meč bo nad njegovim laktom in nad njegovim desnim očesom. Njegov laket bo popolnoma osušen in njegovo desno oko bo skrajno otemnelo.«
