< Zekaraya 11 >
1 Meghee ọnụ ụzọ gị niile, gị Lebanọn. Ka ọkụ repịa osisi sida gị niile.
Open your doors, Lebanon, that the fire may devour your cedars.
2 Kwasie akwa ike, gị osisi junipa, nʼihi na osisi sida adaala, nʼihi na e mebiela osisi ukwu ndị niile ahụ mabigara mma oke. Kwasienụ akwa ike, unu osisi ook nke Bashan, nʼihi na e gbudachala oke ọhịa ahụ!
Wail, fir tree, for the cedar has fallen, because the stately ones are destroyed. Wail, you oaks of Bashan, for the strong forest has come down.
3 Gee ntị nʼụzụ akwa nke ndị ọzụzụ atụrụ, e mebiela ebe ịta nri mara mma nke anụ ụlọ ha. Gee ntị ka unu nụrụ olu mbigbọ nke ụmụ ọdụm, nʼihi na e bibiela oke ọhịa nke Jọdan.
A voice of the wailing of the shepherds. For their glory is destroyed: a voice of the roaring of young lions. For the pride of the Jordan is ruined.
4 Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị Chineke m kwuru, “Zụọnụ igwe ewu na atụrụ ndị a ga-egbu egbu nri.
Thus says the LORD my God: "Feed the flock of slaughter.
5 Ndị na-azụrụ ha na-egbu ha ma ọ dịghị ahụhụ na-abịakwasị ha. Ndị na-erekwa ha na-asị, ‘Toonu Onyenwe anyị, nʼihi na abụ m ọgaranya.’ Ndị ọzụzụ ha adịghị enwe ọmịiko nʼahụ ha.
Their buyers slaughter them, and go unpunished. Those who sell them say, 'Blessed be the LORD, for I am rich;' and their own shepherds do not pity them.
6 Nʼihi na mụ onwe m agakwaghị egosi ndị ala a obi ebere.” Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri. “Aga m ewere onye ọbụla nʼime ha nyefee nʼaka onye agbataobi ya, na nʼaka eze ha. Ha ga-ebibi ala a kpamkpam, ma mụ onwe m agaghị anapụta onye ọbụla site nʼaka ha.”
For I will no more pity the inhabitants of the land," says the LORD; "but, look, I will deliver the men everyone into his neighbor's hand, and into the hand of his king. They will strike the land, and out of their hand I will not deliver them."
7 Nʼihi ya, azụrụ m igwe ewu na atụrụ ndị ahụ a ga-egbu egbu, nke ka nke, ndị ahụ a na-emegbu emegbu. Eweere m mkpanaka abụọ, kpọọ otu nʼime ha Amara, kpọọ nke ọzọ Ịdị nʼotu. Azụkwara m igwe atụrụ ndị ahụ.
So I fed the flock of slaughter, especially the oppressed of the flock. I took for myself two staffs. The one I called "Favor," and the other I called "Union," and I fed the flock.
8 Nʼime otu ọnwa, ewezugara m ndị ọzụzụ atụrụ atọ. Igwe ewu na atụrụ ndị ahụ kpọkwazịrị m asị, enwezighị m ike nweere ha ndidi.
I cut off the three shepherds in one month; for my soul was weary of them, and their soul also loathed me.
9 Nʼihi ya, ekwuru m si, “Agaghị m abụkwa onye ọzụzụ atụrụ unu ọzọ. Nke ọbụla na-anwụ, ya nwụọ, ọzọ, nke na-ala nʼiyi, ya laa nʼiyi. Ka ndị fọdụrụ rie anụ ahụ ibe ha.”
Then I said, "I will not feed you. That which dies, let it die; and that which is to be cut off, let it be cut off; and let those who are left eat each other's flesh."
10 Mgbe ahụ, eweere m mkpanaka m, nke a kpọrọ Amara gbajie ya abụọ, igosi na emebiela m ọgbụgba ndụ nke mụ na ndị mmadụ gbara.
I took my staff Favor, and cut it apart, that I might break my covenant that I had made with all the peoples.
11 Nʼụbọchị ahụ ka e mere ka ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ gharakwa ịdị. Mgbe ahụ, ndị ahụ a na-akpagbu nʼetiti igwe ewu na atụrụ ahụ, bụ ndị na-ele m anya matara na ọ bụ okwu Onyenwe anyị.
It was broken in that day; and thus the poor of the flock that listened to me knew that it was the word of the LORD.
12 Mgbe ahụ, agwara m ha, “Ọ bụrụ na ọ masịrị unu, unu kwụọ m ụgwọ ọrụ m, ọ bụrụkwa na ọ masịghị unu, deberenụ onwe unu ego unu.” Nʼihi nke a, ha gụpụtara mkpụrụ ego ọlaọcha iri atọ, jiri ya kwụọ m ụgwọ.
I said to them, "If you think it best, give me my wages; and if not, keep them." So they weighed for my wages thirty pieces of silver.
13 Onyenwe anyị gwara m, “Tụpụrụ ya ọkpụ ite,” bụ ọnụahịa magburu onwe ya bụ nke ha rụrụ nʼisi m. Ya mere, eweere m iri ọlaọcha atọ ahụ tụpụrụ ya ọkpụ ite nʼụlọnsọ ukwu nke Onyenwe anyị.
The LORD said to me, "Throw it to the potter, the handsome price that I was valued at by them." I took the thirty pieces of silver, and threw them to the potter, in the house of the LORD.
14 Mgbe ahụ, agbajiri m mkpanaka m nke abụọ a na-akpọ Ịdị nʼotu, izipụta na njikọta maọbụ ịdị nʼotu dị nʼetiti Juda na Izrel adịghịkwa.
Then I cut apart my other staff, even Union, that I might break the brotherhood between Judah and Israel.
15 Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gwara m, “Chịrịkwa ngwa ọrụ nke onye ọzụzụ atụrụ nzuzu ahụ,
The LORD said to me, "Take for yourself yet again the equipment of a foolish shepherd.
16 nʼihi na ana m aga ịkpọlite otu onye ọzụzụ atụrụ nke na-agaghị elekọta ụmụ atụrụ furu efu, maọbụ chọọ ndị na-etolite, maọbụ gwọọ ndị merụrụ ahụ, maọbụ nye ndị ahụ dị ike nri. Kama ọ ga-eri anụ atụrụ ndị ahụ ahụ ha dị mma, nyakapụkwa ụkwụ ha niile.
For, look, I will raise up a shepherd in the land, who will not visit those who are cut off, neither will seek those who are scattered, nor heal that which is broken, nor feed that which is sound; but he will eat the flesh of the fat sheep, and will tear their hoofs in pieces.
17 “Ahụhụ dịrị onye ọzụzụ atụrụ ahụ na-abaghị uru, nke na-adịghị elezi igwe ewu na atụrụ ya anya. Ka mma agha gbupụ ya otu aka, ghụpụkwa ya anya aka nri ya. Ka ogwe aka ya kpọnwụọkwa kpamkpam. Otu a, anya aka nri ya ga-akpọkwa.”
Woe to the worthless shepherd who leaves the flock. The sword will be on his arm, and on his right eye. His arm will be completely withered, and his right eye will be totally blinded."
