< Zechariah 11 >

1 Open, O Lebanon, thy doors, And fire doth devour among thy cedars.
Oe Lebanon mon, nange anrikungnaw hah hmai a kak nahanelah, na takhangnaw hah paawng haw.
2 Howl, O fir, for fallen hath the cedar, For their honourable ones were destroyed, Howl, ye oaks of Bashan, For come down hath the fenced forest,
Oe hmaicakung, anri kung a kamlei dawkvah khui haw. Thingkung aphu kaawmnaw teh koung a rawp toe. Oe kathenkungnaw, ratu dawk e thingkung dungradungnaw hai koung a rawp dawkvah khui haw.
3 A voice of the howling of the shepherds! For destroyed was their robe of honour, A voice of the roaring of young lions! For destroyed was the excellency of Jordan.
Tukhoumnaw ni yeirai aphu awh dawkvah a khui awh. Jordan tuipui e bawilennae a ro dawkvah sendeknaw a huk e pawlawk thai lah ao.
4 Thus said Jehovah my God: 'Feed the flock of the slaughter,
Kaie Jehovah Cathut ni a dei e teh, thei hanlah hmoun e hete tuhu naw hah kawk lah.
5 Whose buyers slay them, and are not guilty, And their sellers say, Blessed [is] Jehovah, And I am rich, And their shepherds have no pity on them.
Katawnkungnaw ni a thei awh teh ka yon tie kâpanuek awh hoeh. Kayawtnaw ni hai ka hmu thai e doeh ati awh teh BAWIPA teh yawhawinae awm naseh telah ati awh. Tukhoumnaw ni hai pahrenlungmanae tawn awh hoeh.
6 For I have pity no more on inhabitants of the land, An affirmation of Jehovah, And lo, I am causing man to come forth, Each into the hand of his neighbour, And into the hand of his king, And they have beaten down the land, And I do not deliver out of their hand.'
BAWIPA ni a dei e teh, Kai ni khocaramca naw bout ka pahren mahoeh. Pasai laipalah taminaw hah a imri naw e a kut dawk thoseh, siangpahrang e a kut dawk thoseh, ka hnawng vaiteh, ahnimouh ni ram pueng teh a rektap awh han. Ahnimae a kut dawk hoi kahlout sak mahoeh a ti.
7 And I feed the flock of slaughter, even you, ye afflicted of the flock; and I take to me two staves, the one I have called Pleasantness, and the other I have called Bands, and I feed the flock.
Hottelah, thei han hmoun tangcoung e tuhu lah kaawm e ka roedeng e tu naw hah ka kawk.
8 And I cut off the three shepherds in one month, and my soul is grieved with them, and also their soul hath abhorred me.
Tukhoumkung kathum touh hai thapa yung touh dawk koung ka raphoe. Ahnimouh kecu dawk ka lungsaw thai hoeh. Ahnimouh ni hai kai teh na panuet awh.
9 And I say, 'I do not feed you, the dying, let die; and the cut off, let be cut off; and the remaining ones, let each eat the flesh of its neighbour.'
Nangmouh teh bout na kawk awh mahoeh. Kadout e teh dout yawkaw naseh. Thei lah kaawm e hai thet a yawkaw naseh. Kacawie naw hai buet touh hoi buet touh kâkei a na yawkaw seh, telah a ti.
10 And I take My staff Pleasantness, and cut it asunder, to make void My covenant that I had made with all the peoples:
Miphun puenghoi sak e lawkkamnae hah raphoe hanlah ka ngai dawkvah sonron meihawi ka la teh ka khoe.
11 and it is broken in that day, and know well do the afflicted of the flock who are observing me, that it [is] a word of Jehovah.
Hote lawkkamnae teh hat hnin vah a ro dawkvah Kai na kâuep e ka roedeng e tunaw teh BAWIPA lawk a thai panuek awh.
12 And I say unto them: 'If good in your eyes, give my hire, and if not, forbear;' and they weigh out my hire — thirty silverlings.
Hahoi, Kai ni ka hmu hane kamcu e aphu poe hanelah nangmouh ni na ngai awh pawiteh, poe awh. Na ngai awh hoehpawiteh poe awh hanh telah ati teh, ahnimouh ni kai aphu na poe awh hanelah ngun tangka 30 touh a nue awh.
13 And Jehovah saith unto me, 'Cast it unto the potter;' the goodly price that I have been prized at by them, and I take the thirty silverlings, and cast them [to] the house of Jehovah, unto the potter.
BAWIPA ni hote tangka teh hlaamkabonaw e hmalah tâkhawng pouh haw. Kai hanlah aphu na khoe a e tangka teh ek apap ati awh e patetlah, hote ngun tangka 30 touh hah ka la teh, BAWIPA e im dawk hlaamkabonaw e hmalah ka tâkhawng pouh.
14 And I cut asunder my second staff, Bands, to break the unity between Judah and Israel.
Hat navah, Judah miphun hoi Isarel miphun huiko kamyawngnae raphoe ngainae kecu dawkvah sonron alouke hah ka la teh ka khoe.
15 And Jehovah saith unto me, 'Again take to thee the instrument of a foolish shepherd.
Hathnukkhu, BAWIPA niyah ka pathu e tukhoumkung e hnopainaw hah lat haw.
16 For lo, I am raising up a shepherd in the land, The cut off he doth not inspect, The shaken off he doth not seek, And the broken he doth not heal, The standing he doth not sustain, And the flesh of the fat he doth eat, And their hoofs he doth break off.
Bangkongtetpawiteh, hote ram dawk tukhoumkung buet touh ka tâco sak han. Ahni ni thei lah kaawm e tu hah khenyawn mahoeh. Lam ka phen e hah tawng hoeh. Ka dam hoeh e a dam nahanlah khenyawn hoeh. Kangdout e kabawm hoeh. Kathâw e naw hah a ca han. A khoksamen hai a khoe pouh awh han.
17 Woe [to] the worthless shepherd, forsaking the flock, A sword [is] on his arm, and on his right eye, His arm is utterly dried up, And his right eye is very dim!'
Tuhu hah ka pahnawt e ayawmyin e tukhoumkung teh a yawthout naseh. Ahnie a kut hoi aranglae mit dawkvah tahloi hoi hmâ a ca han. A kut thasainae teh khak a ke han. Aranglae mit hai a dawn han telah a ti.
