Ezekiela 34
1 Ary tonga tamiko ny tenin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 Ry zanak’ olona, maminania ny hamelezana ny mpiandry ny Isiraely, eny, maminania, ka ataovy aminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Lozan’ ny mpiandry ondrin’ ny Isiraely izay mamahan-tena! Moa tsy ny ondry va no tokony handrasan’ ny mpiandry?
Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel, prophesy, and say to the shepherds, Thus says the Lord God; O shepherds of Israel, do shepherds feed themselves? do not the shepherds feed the sheep?
3 Ny taviny dia haninareo, ary ny volony tafinareo, ny nafahy vonoinareo; nefa ny ondry tsy mba andrasanareo.
Behold, you feed on the milk, and clothe yourselves with the wool, and kill the fat: but you feed not my sheep.
4 Tsy manatanjaka ny malemy ianareo, na manasitrana ny marary, na manamatra ny folaka, na mampody ny noroahina, na mikatsaka ny very; fa loza loatra ny fampanomponareo azy.
The weak one you have not strengthened, and the sick you have not cherished, and the bruised you have not bound up, and the stray one you have not turned back, and the lost you have not sought; and the strong you have wearied with labour.
5 Dia miely izy, satria tsy misy mpiandry; ary rehefa miely izy, dia tonga rembin’ ny bibidia rehetra.
And my sheep were scattered, because there were no shepherds: and they became meat to all the wild beasts of the field.
6 Mirenireny eny an-tendrombohitra sy eny amin’ ny havoana andrandraina rehetra ny ondriko; eny, any amin’ ny tany rehetra no ielezan’ ny ondriko, ary tsy misy mitady na miahy azy.
And my sheep were scattered on every mountain, and on every high hill: yes, they were scattered on the face of the earth, and there was none to seek them out, nor to bring them back.
7 Koa mihainoa ny tenin’ i Jehovah ianareo, ry mpiandry ondry:
Therefore, you shepherds, hear the word of the Lord.
8 Raha velona koa Aho, hoy Jehovah Tompo, noho ny nahababoan’ ny ondriko sy ny nahatongavan’ ny ondriko ho rembin’ ny bibi-dia rehetra, satria tsy nisy mpiandry azy, fa tsy nitady ny ondriko ny mpiandry, fa ny mamahan-tena kosa no ataony, ka tsy namahana ny ondriko,
[As] I live, says the Lord God, surely because my sheep became a prey, and my sheep became meat to all the wild beasts of the field, because there were no shepherds, and the shepherds sought not out my sheep, and the shepherds fed themselves, but fed not my sheep.
9 dia mihainoa ny tenin’ i Jehovah ianareo, ry mpiandry ondry.
For this cause, O shepherds,
10 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Indro, avy hamely ny mpiandry ondry Aho, dia hampamoahiko ny amin’ ny ondriko izy ka hesoriko tsy hiandry ny ondry intsony; dia tsy hamahan-tena intsony ny mpiandry ondry, fa hovonjeko eo amin’ ny vavany ny ondriko mba tsy ho azony hohanina intsony.
thus says the Lord God, Behold, I am against the shepherds; and I will require my sheep at their hands, and will turn them back that they shall not feed my sheep, and the shepherds shall no longer feed them; and I will deliver my sheep out of their mouth, and they shall no longer be meat for them.
11 Fa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Indro, Izaho, eny, Izaho no hiahy ny ondriko sy handinidinika azy.
For thus says the Lord God, Behold, I will seek out my sheep, and will visit them.
12 Toy ny fandinidiniko ny mpiandry ny ondriny amin’ izay andro hahatratrarany ny ondriny izay efa niely, dia toy izany no handinidinihako ny ondriko sy hamonjeko azy avy any amin’ izay rehetra efa nielezany tamin’ ny andro mandrahona sy maizim-pito.
As the shepherd seeks his flock, in the day when there is darkness and cloud, in the midst of the sheep that are separated: so will I seek out my sheep, and will bring them back from every place where they were scattered in the day of cloud and darkness.
13 Ary ho entiko mivoaka avy any amin’ ny firenena izy ka hangoniko avy any amin’ ny tany samy hafa, dia ho entiko ho any amin’ ny taniny sy handrasako eny an-tendrombohitry ny Isiraely sy eny an-dohasahan-driaka izy ary eny amin’ izay tsara honenana rehetra eran’ ny tany.
And I will bring them out from the Gentiles, and will gather them from the countries, and will bring them into their own land, and will feed them upon the mountains of Israel, and in the valleys, and in every inhabited place of the land.
14 Eny amin’ ny tany tsara ho fiandrasana no hiandrasako azy, ary eny an-tendrombohitra avon’ ny Isiraely no ho tany hiandrasana azy; ao no handriany amin’ ny tany tsara, ary eny amin’ ny fiandrasana tsara ahitra no hihinanany, dia any an-tendrombohitry ny Isiraely.
I will feed them in a good pasture, on a high mountain of Israel: and their folds shall be there, and they shall lie down, and there shall they rest in perfect prosperity, and they shall feed in a fat pasture on the mountains of Israel.
15 Izaho no hiandry ny ondriko, ary Izaho no hampandry azy, hoy Jehovah Tompo.
I will feed my sheep, and I will cause them to rest; and they shall know that I am the Lord: thus says the Lord God.
16 Ny very hotadiaviko, ny voaroaka hampodiko, ny folaka hohamarako, ny malemy hohatanjahiko; fa ny matavy sy ny matanjaka kosa dia haringako ka handrasako amin’ ny fitsarana.
I will seek that which is lost, and I will recover the stray one, and will bind up that which was broken, and will strengthen the fainting, and will guard the strong, and will feed them with judgement.
17 Ary ny aminareo, ry ondriko, izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Indro, hotsaraiko ny adin’ ny ondry aman’ osy, dia ny ady ataon’ ny ondrilahy sy ny osilahy namany aminy.
And [as for] you, you sheep, thus says the Lord God, Behold, I will distinguish between sheep and sheep, [between] rams and he-goats.
18 Moa ataonareo ho zavatra kely va ny nandanianareo ny ahitra tsara, no dia nohosihosen’ ny tongotrareo ny ahitrareo sisa, ary ny efa nisotroanareo ny rano madio, no dia nolotoin’ ny tongotrareo ny sisa?
And [is it] not enough for you that you fed on the good pasture, that you trampled with your feet the remnant of your pasture? and [that] you drank the standing water, [that] you disturbed the residue with your feet?
19 Ary ny amin’ ny ondriko, moa izay voahosihosin’ ny tongotrareo va no hohaniny, ary izay voaloton’ ny tongotrareo va no hosotroiny?
So my sheep fed on that which you had trampled with your feet; and they drank the water that had been disturbed by your feet.
20 Koa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo aminy: Indro, Izaho, eny, Izaho no hitsara ny adin’ ny ondry matavy amin’ ny ondry mahia.
Therefore thus says the Lord God; Behold, I will separate between the strong sheep and the weak sheep.
21 Satria ny tehezanareo sy ny sorokareo no entinareo manosika ny marary rehetra, ary ny tandrokareo no entinareo manoto azy mandra-pandronjinareo azy ho any ivelany;
You did thrust with your sides and shoulders, and pushed with your horns, and you cruelly treated all the sick.
22 dia hovonieko ny ondriko, ary tsy ho babo intsony izy, ary hotsaraiko ny adin’ ny ondry amin’ ny ondry namany.
Therefore I will save my sheep, and they shall not be any more for a prey; and will judge between ram and ram.
23 Ary hanangana Mpiandry iray ho azy Aho, Izy no hiandry azy, dia Davida Mpanompoko, ka Izy no hitondra azy sy ho Mpiandry azy.
And I will raise up one shepherd over them, and he shall tend them, [even] my servant David, and he shall be their shepherd;
24 Ary Izaho Jehovah no ho Andriamaniny, ary Davida Mpanompoko no ho Mpanapaka ao aminy. Izaho Jehovah no niteny izany.
and I the Lord will be to them a God, and David a prince in the midst of them; I the Lord have spoken it.
25 Ary hanao fanekem-pihavanana aminy Aho ka hampiala ny biby masiaka tsy ho eo amin’ ny tany intsony, dia handry fahizay izy na dia any an-efitra aza, sady hatory na dia any anaty ala aza.
And I will make with David a covenant of peace and I will utterly destroy evil beasts from off the land; and they shall dwell in the wilderness, and sleep in the forests.
26 Ary izy sy ny manodidina ny havoanako dia hataoko fitaziana, ary hampilatsaka ranonorana amin’ ny fotoany Aho, dia ranonoram-pitahiana mivatravatra.
And I will settle them round about my mountain; and I will give you the rain, the rain of blessing.
27 Ary hamoa ny hazo any an-tsaha, sady hahavokatra ny tany, ary handry fahizay amin’ ny tany izy; ka dia ho fantany fa Izaho no Jehovah, raha hotapahiko ny ziogany, ary hovonjeko amin’ ny tànan’ izay nampanompo azy izy.
And the trees that are in the field shall yield their fruit, and the earth shall yield her strength, and they shall dwell in the confidence of peace on their land, and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I have broken their yoke; and I will deliver them out of the hand of those that enslaved them.
28 Ary tsy ho babon’ ny jentilisa na ho rembin’ ny bibi-dia intsony izy, fa handry fahizay, ary tsy hisy hanaitaitra azy.
And they shall no more be a spoil to the nations, and the wild beasts of the land shall no more at all devour them; and they shall dwell safely, and there shall be none to make them afraid.
29 Ary hampaniry voly ho laza ho azy Aho, ka tsy ho ritry ny mosary amin’ ny tany intsony izy, na hitondra ny latsan’ ny jentilisa intsony;
And I will raise up for them a plant of peace, and they shall no more perish with hunger upon the land, and they shall no more bear the reproach of the nations.
30 ka dia ho fantany fa Izaho, Jehovah Andriamaniny, no momba azy, ary izy, taranak’ Isiraely, no oloko, hoy Jehovah Tompo.
And they shall know that I am the Lord their God, and they my people. O house of Israel, says the Lord God,
31 Ary ny aminareo ondriko ondry fiandriko olona ianareo, ary Izaho no Andriamanitrareo, hoy Jehovah Tompo.
you are my sheep, even the sheep of my flock, and I am the Lord your God, says the Lord God.
