Ezekiel 34
1 And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:
2 'Son of man, prophesy concerning shepherds of Israel, prophesy, and thou hast said unto them: To the shepherds, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Woe [to] the shepherds of Israel, Who have been feeding themselves! The flock do not the shepherds feed?
Fili hominis propheta de pastoribus Israel: propheta, et dices pastoribus: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Væ pastoribus Israel, qui pascebant semetipsos: nonne greges a pastoribus pascuntur?
3 The fat ye do eat, and the wool ye put on, The fed one ye slaughter, the flock ye feed not.
Lac comedebatis, et lanis operiebamini, et quod crassum erat occidebatis: gregem autem meum non pascebatis.
4 The weak ye have not strengthened, And the sick one ye have not healed, And the broken ye have not bound up, And the driven away have not brought back, And the lost ye have not sought, And with might ye have ruled them and with rigour.
Quod infirmum fuit non consolidastis, et quod ægrotum non sanastis, quod confractum est non alligastis, et quod abiectum est non reduxistis, et quod perierat non quæsistis: sed cum austeritate imperabatis eis, et cum potentia.
5 And they are scattered from want of a shepherd, And are for food to every beast of the field, Yea, they are scattered.
Et dispersæ sunt oves meæ, eo quod non esset pastor: et factæ sunt in devorationem omnium bestiarum agri, et dispersæ sunt.
6 Go astray do My flock on all the mountains, And on every high hill, And on all the face of the land have My flock been scattered, And there is none inquiring, and none seeking.
Erraverunt greges mei in cunctis montibus, et in universo colle excelso: et super omnem faciem terræ dispersi sunt greges mei, et non erat qui requireret, non erat, inquam, qui requireret.
7 Therefore, shepherds, hear a word of Jehovah:
Propterea pastores audite verbum Domini:
8 I live — an affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, If not, because of My flock being for a prey, Yea, My flock is for food to every beast of the field, Because there is no shepherd, And My shepherds have not sought My flock, And the shepherds do feed themselves, And My flock they have not fed.
Vivo ego, dicit Dominus Deus: quia pro eo quod facti sunt greges mei in rapinam, et oves meæ in devorationem omnium bestiarum agri, eo quod non esset pastor (neque enim quæsierunt pastores mei gregem meum: ) sed pascebant pastores semetipsos, et greges meos non pascebant:
9 Therefore, O shepherds, hear a word of Jehovah:
propterea pastores audite verbum Domini:
10 Thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I [am] against the shepherds, And have required My flock from their hand, And caused them to cease from feeding the flock, And no more do the shepherds feed themselves, And I have delivered My flock from their mouth, And they are not to them for food.
Hæc 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 thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I — even I, have required My flock, And I have sought it out.
Quia hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego ipse requiram oves meas, et visitabo eas.
12 As a shepherd's searching of his drove, In the day of his being in the midst of his scattered flock, so I do seek My flock, And have delivered them out of all places, Whither they have been scattered, In a day of cloud and thick 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 dispersæ fuerant in die nubis, et caliginis.
13 And brought them out from the peoples, And have gathered them from the lands, And brought them unto their own ground, And have fed them on mountains of Israel, By streams, and by all dwellings of 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 terræ.
14 With good pasture I do feed them, And on mountains of the high place of Israel is their habitation, There do they lie down in a good habitation, And fat pastures they enjoy on 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 feed My flock, and cause them to lie down, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
Ego pascam oves meas: et ego eas accubare faciam, dicit Dominus Deus.
16 The lost I seek, and the driven away bring back, And the broken I bind up, and the sick I strengthen, And the fat and the strong I destroy, I feed it with judgment.
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 And you, My flock, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Lo, I am judging between sheep and sheep, Between rams and he-goats.
Vos autem greges mei, hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Ecce ego iudico inter pecus et pecus, arietum, et hircorum.
18 Is it a little thing for you — the good pasture ye enjoy, And the remnant of your pasture ye tread down with your feet, And a depth of waters ye do drink, And the remainder with your feet ye trample,
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 And My flock the trodden thing of your feet consumeth, And the trampled thing of your feet drinketh?
Et oves meæ his, quæ conculcata pedibus vestris fuerant, pascebantur: et quæ pedes vestri turbaverant, hæc bibebant.
20 Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah to them: Lo, I — even I, have judged between fat sheep and lean sheep.
Propterea hæc dicit Dominus Deus ad vos: Ecce ego ipse iudico inter pecus pingue, et macilentum:
21 Because with side and with shoulder ye thrust away, And with your horns push all the diseased, Till ye have scattered them to the out-place,
pro eo quod lateribus, et humeris impingebatis, et cornibus vestris ventilabatis omnia infirma pecora, donec dispergerentur foras:
22 And I have given safety to My flock, And they are not any more for prey, And I have judged between sheep and sheep.
salvabo gregem meum, et non erit ultra in rapinam, et iudicabo inter pecus et pecus.
23 And have raised up over them one shepherd, And he hath fed them — my servant David, He doth feed them, and he is their shepherd,
ET SUSCITABO SUPER EAS PASTOREM UNUM, qui pascat eas, servum meum David: ipse pascet eas, et ipse erit eis in pastorem.
24 And I, Jehovah, I am their God, And My servant David prince in their midst, I, Jehovah, have spoken.
Ego autem Dominus ero eis in Deum: et servus meus David princeps in medio eorum: ego Dominus locutus sum.
25 And I have made for them a covenant of peace, And caused evil beasts to cease out of the land, And they have dwelt in a wilderness confidently, And they have slept in forests.
Et faciam cum eis pactum pacis, et cessare faciam bestias pessimas de terra: et qui habitant in deserto, securi dormient in saltibus.
26 And I have given them, and the suburbs of my hill, a blessing, And caused the shower to come down in its season, Showers of blessing they are.
Et ponam eos in circuitu collis mei benedictionem: et deducam imbrem in tempore suo: pluviæ benedictionis erunt.
27 And given hath the tree of the field its fruit, And the land doth give her increase, And they have been on their land confident, And they have known that I [am] Jehovah, In My breaking the bands of their yoke, And I have delivered them from the hand of those laying service on 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 And they are no more a prey to nations, And the beast of the earth devoureth them not, And they have dwelt confidently, And there is none troubling.
Et non erunt ultra in rapinam in Gentibus, neque bestiæ terræ devorabunt eos: sed habitabunt confidenter absque ullo terrore.
29 And I have raised for them a plant for renown, And they are no more consumed by hunger in the land, And they bear no more the shame of the nations.
Et suscitabo eis germen nominatum: et non erunt ultra imminuti fame in terra, neque portabunt ultra opprobrium Gentium.
30 And they have known that I, Jehovah, their God, [am] with them, And they — the house of Israel — My people, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
Et scient quia ego Dominus Deus eorum cum eis, et ipsi populus meus domus Israel: ait Dominus Deus.
31 And ye, My flock, the flock of My pasture, Men ye [are] — I [am] your God, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah!'
Vos autem greges mei, greges pascuæ meæ homines estis: et ego Dominus Deus vester, dicit Dominus Deus.
