Ezekiel 34
1 Kalpasanna, dimteng kaniak ti sao ni Yahweh ket kinunana,
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
2 “Anak ti tao, agipadtoka a maibusor kadagiti agpaspastor iti Israel! Agipadtoka ket ibagam kadakuada, 'Kastoy ti ibagbaga ti Apo a ni Yahweh kadagiti agpaspastor: Asi pay dagiti agpaspastor iti Israel a mangipaspastor kadagiti bagbagida! Saan kadi a rumbeng a bantayan dagiti agpaspastor ti arban?
“Son of man, prophesy about the shepherds of Israel. Prophesy, and you shall say to the shepherds: Thus says the Lord God: Woe to the shepherds of Israel who feed themselves! Should not the flocks be fed by the shepherds?
3 Kankanenyo dagiti nalulukmeg a paset ken agkawkaweskayo iti lupot a naaramid iti buok ti karnero! Parpartienyo dagiti nalulukmeg iti arban! Saankayo a pulos a nagpastor.
You consumed the milk, and you covered yourselves with the wool, and you killed what was fattened. But my flock you did not feed.
4 Saanyo a pinapigsa dagiti addaan kadagiti sagubanit, wenno saanyo nga inagasan dagiti masakit. Saanyo a bedbedbedan dagiti nablo, ken saanyo a pinasubli dagiti napapanaw wenno sinapul dagiti napukaw. Ngem ketdi, inturayanyo ida babaen iti bileg ken kinaranggas.
What was weak, you have not strengthened, and what was sick, you have not healed. What was broken, you have not bound, and what was cast aside, you have not led back again, and what was lost, you have not sought. Instead, you ruled over them with severity and with power.
5 Ket nawarawarada nga awan ti mangipastor kadakuada, ket nagbalinda a taraon para kadagiti amin a nabiag a narungsot nga ayup kadagiti away, kalpasan a nawarawarada.
And my sheep were scattered, because there was no shepherd. And they became devoured by all the wild beasts of the field, and they were dispersed.
6 Naiyaw-awan ti arbanko kadagiti amin a banbantay ken iti tunggal nangangato a turod, ket naiwarawarada iti entero a rabaw ti daga. Ket awan a pulos ti mangbirbirok kadakuada.
My sheep have wandered to every mountain and to every exalted hill. And my flocks have been scattered across the face of the earth. And there was no one who sought them; there was no one, I say, who sought them.
7 Isu a dakayo nga agpaspastor, denggenyo ti pakaammo ni Yahweh:
Because of this, O shepherds, listen to the word of the Lord:
8 Iti naganko nga adda iti agnanayon—kastoy ti pakaammo ti Apo a ni Yahweh—gapu ta nagbalin a samsam ti arbanko ken nagbalin a taraon para kadagiti amin a narungsot nga ayup kadagiti away (gapu ta awan ti pastor ken awan kadagiti pastorko ti nangbiruk iti arbanko, ngem binantayan dagiti agpaspastor dagiti bagbagida ket saanda nga impastoran ti arbanko)—
As I live, says the Lord God, since my flocks have become a prey, and my sheep have been devoured by all the wild beasts of the field, since there was no shepherd, for my shepherds did not seek my flock, but instead the shepherds fed themselves, and they did not feed my flocks:
9 Ngarud, dakayo nga agpaspastor, denggenyo ti pakaammo ni Yahweh:
because of this, O shepherds, listen to the word of the Lord:
10 Kastoy ti kuna ti Apo a ni Yahweh: Kitaem! Maibusorak kadagiti agpaspastor, ket sapulekto manipud kadagiti imada ti arbanko. Ket pasardengekto ida a mangipastor iti arban; wenno saanton nga ipastoran dagiti pastor dagiti bagbagida ta alaekto ti arbanko manipud kadagiti ngiwatda, tapno saanton nga agbalin a taraon ti arbanko para kadakuada.
Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I myself will be over the shepherds. I will require my flock at their hand, and I will cause them to cease, so that they no longer refrain from feeding the flock. Neither will the shepherds feed themselves any more. And I will deliver my flock from their mouth; and it will no longer be food for them.
11 Ta kastoy ti kuna ti Apo a ni Yahweh: Kitaem! Siakto a mismo ti mangsapul iti arbanko ket aywanakto dagitoy,
For thus says the Lord God: Behold, I myself will seek my sheep, and I myself will visit them.
12 kas iti panangsapul ti agpaspastor iti arbanna iti aldaw nga adda isuna iti tengnga ti nawarawara nga arbanna. Kastanto ti panangbirokko iti arbanko, ken ispalekto ida manipud kadagiti amin a lugar a nakaiwaraanda iti aldaw a naulep ken nasipnget.
Just as a shepherd visits his flock, in the day when he will be in the midst of his sheep that were scattered, so will I visit my sheep. And I will deliver them from all the places to which they had been scattered in the day of gloom and darkness.
13 Ket irruarkonto ida manipud kadagiti tattao; urnongekto ida manipud kadagiti daga ket iyegkonto ida iti dagayo. Ikabilkonto ida kadagiti pagpasturan kadagiti sikigan dagiti bantay iti Israel, iti abay dagiti karayan, ken iti tunggal pagnaedan iti daga.
And I will lead them away from the peoples, and I will gather them from the lands, and I will bring them into their own land. And I will pasture them on the mountains of Israel, by the rivers, and in all the settlements of the land.
14 Ikabilkonto ida iti nasayaat a pagpasturan; dagitinto nangangato a bantay ti Israel dagiti lugar a pagarabanda. Agiddadanto kadagiti nasasayaat a lugar a pagaraban, iti nawadwad a pagpasturan, ken agarabdanto kadagiti bantay ti Israel.
I will feed them in very fertile pastures, and their pastures will be on the lofty mountains of Israel. There they will rest on the green grass, and they will be fed in the fat pastures, on the mountains of Israel.
15 Siakto a mismo ti mangipastor iti arbanko, ken siakto a mismo ti mangpaidda kadakuada—kastoy ti pakaammo ti Apo a ni Yahweh—
I will feed my sheep, and I will cause them to lie down, says the Lord God.
16 birukekto ti napukaw ken isublikto ti napagtalaw; bedbedakto ti nablo a karnero ken agasakto ti masakit a karnero. Ket pukawekto dagiti napalukmeg ken napigsa! Agpastorakto a nainkalintegan!
I will seek what had been lost. And I will lead back again what had been cast aside. And I will bind up what had been broken. And I will strengthen what had been infirm. And I will preserve what was fat and strong. And I will feed them on judgment.
17 Ket sika nga arbanko—kastoy ti kuna ti Apo a ni Yahweh— kitaem! Siakto ti agbalin nga ukom kadagiti karnero, kadagiti kalakian a karnero ken kadagiti kalding!
But as for you, O my flocks, thus says the Lord God: Behold, I judge between cattle and cattle, among rams and among he-goats.
18 Bassit kadi a banag a maipastorkayo iti nasayaat a pagpasturan, isu a tarigagayanyo a baddekan ti natda iti pagpasturan? Wenno bassit kadi a banag nga imminumkayo kadagiti nalitnaw a danum, a rumbeng a libegenyo dagiti karayan babaen kadagiti sakayo?
Was it not enough for you to feed upon good pastures? For you even trample with your feet upon the remainder of your pastures. And when you drank the purist water, you disturbed the remainder with your feet.
19 Ngem ti karnerok ket maipaspastoren iti binaddebaddekan dagiti sakayo; in-inumendan dagiti danum a linibegyo babaen kadagiti sakayo!
And my sheep were pastured from what you had trampled with your feet, and they drank from what your feet had disturbed.
20 Kastoy ngarud ti kuna ti Apo a ni Yahweh kadakuada: Kitaem! Siakto a mismo ti mangukom kadagiti nalukmeg ken kadagiti nakuttong a karnero,
Because of this, thus says the Lord God to you: Behold, I myself am judging between the fat cattle and the lean.
21 ta induronyo ida babaen kadagiti bakrang ken abagayo, ken sinangduyo dagiti amin nga agkakapuy agingga nga inwarayo ida iti adayu manipud iti daga!
For you have pushed with your sides and shoulders, and you have threatened all the weak cattle with your horns, until they were scattered abroad.
22 Isu nga isalakankonto ti arbanko; saandanton a pulos nga agbalin a samsam. Ket ukomekto dagiti karnero!
I will save my flock, and it will no longer be a prey, and I will judge between cattle and cattle.
23 Mangisaadakto iti maysa nga agpastor kadakuada, ket ipastornanto ida—ti adipenko a ni David! Ipastornanto ida; agbalinto isuna a pastorda!
And I will raise up over them ONE SHEPHERD, who will feed them, my servant David. He himself will feed them, and he will be their shepherd.
24 Ta siak, a ni Yahweh, ti agbalinto a Diosda, ket ti adipenko a ni David ti agbalinto a panguloda—siak, a ni Yahweh ti nangipakaammo iti daytoy!
And I, the Lord, will be their God. And my servant David will be the leader in their midst. I, the Lord, have spoken.
25 Ket mangaramidakto iti katulagan a pakikapia kadakuada ken ikkatekto dagiti dakes nga atap nga ayup manipud iti daga, isu nga agbiagto a sitatalged dagiti karnerok iti let-ang ken maturogdanto kadagiti kabakiran.
And I will make a covenant of peace with them. And I will cause the very harmful beasts to cease from the land. And those who are living in the desert will sleep securely in the forests.
26 Bendisionakto pay ida ken dagiti naglikmut a turodko, ta mangiyegakto iti arbis iti naikeddeng a tiempo. Dagitoyto ket arbis iti bendision!
And I will make them a blessing all around my hill. And I will send the rain in due time; there will be showers of blessing.
27 Ket agbunganto dagiti kayo iti talon, ken mangipaayto ti daga iti bunga. Natalgedto dagiti karnerok iti dagada; ket maammoandanto a siak ni Yahweh, inton tukkolek dagiti balunet ti sangolda, ken inton ispalek ida manipud iti ima dagiti nangtagabu kadakuada.
And the tree of the field will yield its fruit, and the land will yield its crop. And they will be in their own land without fear. And they shall know that I am the Lord, when I will have crushed the chains of their yoke, and when I will have rescued them from the hand of those who rule over them.
28 Saandanton a pulos nga agbalin a samsam kadagiti nasion, ket saanto ida a pulos a kanen dagiti atap nga ayup! Ta agbiagdanto a sitatalged ket saandanto nga agbuteng.
And they will no longer be a prey to the Gentiles, nor will the wild beasts of the earth devour them. Instead, they will live in confidence without any terror.
29 Ta mangaramidakto iti natalna a lugar a pagmulaan para kadakuada tapno saandanton a pulos a matay iti bisin iti daga, ket saanto ida a laisen dagiti nasion.
And I will raise up for them a renowned branch. And they will be no longer be diminished by famine in the land, nor will they carry any longer the reproach of the Gentiles.
30 Ket maammoandanto a siak, a ni Yahweh a Diosda ket addaak kadakuada. Isuda dagiti tattaok, ti balay ti Israel— kastoy ti pakaammo ti Apo a ni Yahweh.
And they shall know that I, the Lord their God, am with them, and that they are my people, the house of Israel, says the Lord God.
31 Ta dakayo dagiti karnerok, ti arban iti pagpasturak, ken dagiti tattaok! Siakto ti Diosyo— kastoy ti pakaammo ti Apo a ni Yahweh.'”
For you are my flocks; the flocks of my pasture are men. And I am the Lord your God, says the Lord God.”
