Zekraia Sekaraia 11
1 Lebanoni kumamoka kafanka'a anagi'negeno tevemo'a sida zafaka'a teno eri hana hino.
[You people of] [APO] Lebanon [should] open your gates, [because you will not be able to stop] fire from burning your cedar [trees]!
2 Saiprisi zafamota zavi krafa hiho, na'ankure sida zafamo'za evuramize. Knare'nare zafaramimo'za mopafinke'za masaze. Basanima me'nana oki zafamoka, zavi krafa huo, na'ankure zafa tanopaka'a ahe huti namati hu'naze.
Your cypress/pine [trees] [APO] should [also] wail because the cedar [trees] have been cut down. Those glorious/great trees have been destroyed. The oak trees in the Bashan [region] should also wail, because the other trees in the forest have been cut down.
3 Sipisipi afu kva vahetmimo'zama zavi krafagema nehazana antahio, na'ankure sipisipi afu'ma kegavama nehaza avonona eri havizantfa nehazageno, kasefa laionimo'za krafage nehaze. Na'ankure Jodani vahe'mo'zama zamavufaga rama nehaza zamo'a haviza hie.
And listen to the shepherds crying because the fertile pastures have been ruined. Listen to the lions roar; they roar because the delightful forest [where they live] near the Jordan [River] has been ruined.
4 Ra Anumzana nagri Anumzamo'a amanage hie, Zamaheginaku'ma avame'zama anteterema hu'naza sipisipi afutamina vunka ome kegava huo.
This is what Yahweh my God said [to me]: “[I want you to] become a shepherd for a flock [of sheep that are about] to be slaughtered.
5 Ana sipisipi afutamima tesite'za hegi'za eri'zama vaza vahe'mo'za afu'ma ahegi'za zantera zamarimpamo'a kna osige'za ahegiza eri'za vu'naze. Hagi ana sipisipi afutmima zagore'ma atre'za zagoma eriza vahe'mo'za hu'za, Ra Anumzamo'a ra agi erisie, na'ankure tagra zago feno vahe fore hune hu'za nehaze. Hagi sipisipi kva vahe'mo'za ana sipisipigura zamasunkura huozmante'naze.
The people who are going to buy the sheep will kill the sheep, and they will not be punished. Those who are selling the sheep say, ‘[I] praise Yahweh, [because] I will become rich!’ Even the shepherds do not feel sorry for the sheep.
6 Anahukna hu'na ama mopafi vahekura nasunkura osugahue, huno Ra Anumzamo'a nehie. Nagra zamatrenuge'za zamagra zamagra ohefri ahefri nehanageno, zamagri'a kini ne'mo'enena zamahe frigahie. Nagra zamaza hu'na ozamavaresuge'za zamahe hana hanageno mopazmimo'a ka'ma mopa megahie.
And similarly, I no longer feel sorry for the people of this country. I am going to allow many of them [HYP] to be captured by other people or by their king. Those who capture them will ruin this country, and I will not rescue any [of the people].”
7 Ana hazage'na zamahenaku'ma huhamprinte'neza, knazama zami'za zamazeri havizama nehaza sipisipi afu kevumofo kva vahe nagra mani'noe. Ana nehu'na sipisipi kva vahe'mo'zama eneriza azompa tare erite'na, mago azompagura Asunku zane hu'na agia nente'na, mago azompagura Erimago hanune hu'na agi'a antemi'noe.
So I became the shepherd of a flock [of sheep that were about] to be slaughtered [for their meat to be sold] to the dealers. [I took good care of the sheep, even the ones that were the weakest sheep. Then] I took two [shepherds’] /walking sticks). I named the one [staff] ‘Kindness’ and the other [staff] ‘Union’. And I took good care of the sheep.
8 Mago ikamofo agu'afi 3'a sipisipi kva vahetmina erizazmifintira zamazeri tre'noe. Na'ankure nagra ana sipisipi kva vahetaminkura mago narimpa huozmantoge'za zamagra zamagote'nante'naze.
But the three shepherds [who had been working with me] detested me, and I became impatient with them. Within one month I (dismissed/got rid of) those shepherds.
9 Ana hazage'na amanage hu'na zamasmi'noe, Nagra sipisipi kva vahera mani'na tamagrira kegava osugahue. Iza'oma frinaku'ma hanimo'a frisigeno, ahenaku'ma hanaza su'ana ahegahaze. Hagi mani'nazama'amo'za zamagra zamagra ohe ahe hu'za zamavufaga traga hu'za negahaze.
So I said [to the dealers], “I will no [longer] be the shepherd. I will allow the ones that are dying to die. I will allow the ones that are getting lost to get lost. And I will not prevent those that remain from destroying each other.”
10 Anante Asunkure hu'nama agima antemi'noa azompa amu'nompinti ruhanentagi'na, kokankoka vahetaminema huhagerafi huvempagema hu'noana anante ruhantagi'noe.
Then I took the staff that I had named ‘Kindness’ and I broke it. [That showed that Yahweh] was annulling/canceling the agreement that he had made with all the people-groups.
11 Zamagri'enema huhagerafi huvempagema hu'noana e'i ana knare eme vagare'ne. Hagi knazampima mani'naza sipisipi afutamimo'zama ana zama hugezama nege'za, Ra Anumzamo'a amama hia avu'ava zampi huvazino naneke nerasamie hu'za keza antahiza hu'naze.
So that agreement was ended immediately. And the men who bought and sold sheep who were watching me knew [by seeing what I was doing] that I was giving them a message from Yahweh.
12 Anante amanage hu'na zamasami'noe, Tamagrama antahisageno knare'ma hanigeta mizani'a namiho, hagi knare'ma osanigeta azeriho. Anage huge'za kna'a erinte'za kete'za 30'a silva zago nami'naze. (Exodus-Uti 21:32)
I told them, “If you think it is what you should do, pay me [for taking care of the sheep]. If you do not think that is what you should do, do not pay me.” So they paid me [only] 30 pieces of silver.
13 Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno nasami'ne, Ama marerisa zagoma nagri'ma mizama saza zagoa erinka mopa kavoma tro'ma nehia ne' matevunka amio. Anage hige'na ana zagoa eri'na mono nontega vu'na mopa kavoma tro'ma nehia ne' ome mate vumi'noe.
Then Yahweh said to me, “[That is a ridiculously small amount of money that they have paid you]! [So] throw it to the man who makes clay pots!” So I took the silver to the temple of Yahweh, and I threw it in the chest where the offerings/money is kept.
14 Ana hute'na Juda vahe'ene Israeli vahe'mo'zama koganama huza magopima mani'naza zana ama ruhantague hu'na nehu'na, Erimago hanune hu'nama agima ante'noa azompa eri'na amu'nompinti ruhantagi'noe.
Then I broke my second staff, [the one that I named] ‘Union’. That [indicated that] Judah and Israel would no longer be united.
15 Anante Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno nasami'ne, Ete mago'ene neginagi sipisipi kva vahe'mofo eriza zantamina erio.
Then Yahweh said to me, “Take again the things that a foolish shepherd uses,
16 Hagi keho, menina sipisipi kva vahera kefo sipisipi afu kva vahe azeri oti'za nehue. Ana sipisipi afu kva vahe'mo'a hazenkema eri'nesia sipisipi afu'ene, anenta sipisipi afu'ene, krima eri'nesaza sipisipi afutamina kegava nosuno, knare'ma hu'za mani'naza sipisipi afutaminena ne'zana ozamigahie. Anara osugosianki, afovage sipisipi afutaminke ahegino neno eri hana nehuno agigo azanko'age atregahie.
because I am going to appoint a new king for the people, [one who will not take care of my people. He will be like a foolish shepherd]: [MET] He will not take care of those who are dying, those who are very young, those who have been injured, or those who do not have enough food. Instead, he will [treat them very cruelly, like a shepherd who would] [MET] kill and eat the best sheep and tear off their hoofs.
17 E'inahu kefo sipisipi afu kva vahe'mo'a ra hazenkefi ufregahianki kva hino. Bainati kazinteti aheza azana runekafri'za, tamaga kaziga avurga repro hugahaze.
But terrible things will happen to that foolish/useless king who abandons the people [MET] over whom he rules. [His enemies] will strike his arm and his right eye with their swords. [The result will be that] he will have no strength in his arm, and his right eye will become completely blind.”
