< Zakariya 11 >

1 Buɗe ƙofofinki, ya Lebanon, don wuta ta cinye itatuwan al’ul naki.
Open thy doors, O Lebanon, that the fire may devour thy cedars.
2 Yi kuka, ya itacen fir, gama itacen al’ul ya fāɗi; itatuwa masu daraja sun lalace! Ku yi kuka, ku itatuwan oak na Bashan; an sassare itatuwan babban kurmi!
Howl, cypress, for the cedar is fallen; because the noble ones are spoiled. Howl, ye oaks of Bashan; for the strong forest is come down.
3 Ku ji kukan makiyaya; an ɓata musu wuraren kiwonsu masu ciyayi! Ku ji rurin zakoki; an lalatar da jejin Urdun!
A voice of howling of the shepherds; for their glory is spoiled: a voice of roaring of young lions; for the pride of Jordan is spoiled.
4 Ga abin da Ubangiji Allahna ya ce, “Yi kiwon garken tumakin da za a yanka.
Thus saith Jehovah my God: Feed the flock of slaughter,
5 Masu sayensu sun yanyanka su, suka kuwa tafi ba hukunci. Masu sayar da su sun ce, ‘Yabi Ubangiji, na yi arziki!’ Makiyayansu ma ba su ji tausayinsu ba.
whose possessors slay them without being held guilty; and they that sell them say, Blessed be Jehovah! for I am become rich; and their own shepherds pity them not.
6 Gama ba zan ƙara jin tausayin mutanen ƙasar ba,” in ji Ubangiji. “Zan ba da kowa ga maƙwabcinsa da kuma sarkinsa. Za su zalunci ƙasar, ba zan kuma cece su daga hannuwansu ba.”
For I will no more pity the inhabitants of the land, saith Jehovah, and behold, I will deliver men, every one into his neighbour's hand, and into the hand of his king; and they shall smite the land, and I will not deliver out of their hand.
7 Saboda haka na yi kiwon garken da za a yanka, musamman garken da ake zalunta. Sai na ɗauki sanduna biyu na kira ɗaya Tagomashi, ɗaya kuma Haɗinkai, sai na yi kiwon garken.
So I fed the flock of slaughter, truly the poor of the flock. And I took unto me two staves; the one I called Beauty, and the other I called Bands; and I fed the flock.
8 Cikin wata guda na kawar da makiyayan nan uku. Garken suka ƙi ni, na kuwa gaji da su
And I destroyed three shepherds in one month; and my soul was vexed with them, and their soul also loathed me.
9 na ce, “Ba zan zama makiyayinku ba. Bari masu mutuwa su mutu, masu hallaka kuma su hallaka. Bari waɗanda suka ragu su ci naman juna.”
And I said, I will not feed you: that which dieth, let it die; and that which perisheth let it perish; and let them which are left eat every one the flesh of another.
10 Sai na ɗauki sandana mai suna Tagomashi na karya shi, na janye alkawarin da na yi da dukan al’ummai.
And I took my staff, Beauty, and cut it asunder, that I might break my covenant which I had made with all the peoples.
11 An janye shi a ranan nan, saboda haka garken da yake cikin wahala masu kallona sun san cewa maganar Ubangiji ce.
And it was broken in that day; and so the poor of the flock that gave heed to me knew that it was the word of Jehovah.
12 Na faɗa musu cewa, “In kun ga ya fi kyau, ku biya ni; in kuwa ba haka ba, ku riƙe.” Saboda haka suka biya ni azurfa talatin.
And I said unto them, If ye think good, give [me] my hire; and if not, forbear. And they weighed for my hire thirty silver-pieces.
13 Sai Ubangiji ya ce mini, “Jefar da shi cikin ma’aji,” Lada mai kyau da aka yi cinikina ne! Saboda haka sai na ɗauki azurfa talatin ɗin na jefa su cikin gidan Ubangiji don a sa cikin ma’aji.
And Jehovah said unto me, Cast it unto the potter: a goodly price that I was prized at by them. And I took the thirty silver-pieces, and cast them to the potter in the house of Jehovah.
14 Sai na karya sandana na biyu mai suna Haɗinkai, ta haka na karya’yan’uwantakar da take tsakanin Yahuda da Isra’ila.
And I cut asunder mine other staff, Bands, to break the brotherhood between Judah and Israel.
15 Sai Ubangiji ya ce mini, “Ka sāke ɗaukar kayan aiki na wawan makiyayi.
And Jehovah said unto me, Take unto thee yet the instruments of a foolish shepherd.
16 Gama zan tā da makiyayi a ƙasar wanda ba zai kula da ɓatattu, ko yă nemi ƙanana, ko yă warkar da waɗanda suka ji ciwo, ko kuma ciyar da masu lafiya ba, sai dai zai ci naman keɓaɓɓun tumaki, yă farfasa kofatonsu.
For behold, I will raise up a shepherd in the land, who shall not visit those that are about to perish, neither shall seek that which is strayed away, nor heal that which is wounded, nor feed that which is sound; but he will eat the flesh of the fat, and tear their hoofs in pieces.
17 “Kaito ga banzan makiyayin nan, wanda ya bar garken! Bari takobi yă sare hannunsa da idonsa na dama! Bari hannunsa yă shanye gaba ƙaf, idonsa na dama kuma yă makance sarai!”
Woe to the worthless shepherd that leaveth the flock! The sword shall be upon his arm, and upon his right eye; his arm shall be clean dried up, and his right eye utterly darkened.
