Ezekiela 34
1 Niheo amako ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 O ana’ ondatio; mitokia amo mpiarak’ añondri’ Israeleo, mitokia ty hoe amo mpiarakeo, Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè: Hankàñe amo mpiarak’añondri’ Israeleo, ie mamaham-batañe avao! tsy ho fahana’ o mpiarak’ añondrio hao o lia-rai’eo?
Son of man, be a prophet against the keepers of the flock of Israel, and say to them, O keepers of the sheep! this is the word of the Lord: A curse is on the keepers of the flock of Israel who take the food for themselves! is it not right for the keepers to give the food to the sheep?
3 Riote’ areo ty ronono’e, sikina’ areo o volon-añondrio, lentà’ areo o vondrakeo; fe tsy fahana’ areo i lia-raikey.
You take the milk and are clothed with the wool, you put the fat beasts to death, but you give the sheep no food.
4 Tsy ampaozare’ areo ty maleme, naho tsy ampijangañeñe ty marare, naho tsy bandie’ areo ty folake, naho tsy ampoli’ areo i nandifikey, vaho tsy paia’ areo i nimotsoy; te mone fisengean-kery naho fampisoañañe ty fifeleha’ areo,
You have not made the diseased ones strong or made well that which was ill; you have not put bands on the broken or got back that which had been sent away or made search for the wandering ones; and the strong you have been ruling cruelly.
5 ie mibarakaik’ añe fa tsy amam-piarake; aa le fitsindro’ o bibin-kivokeo henaneo amy t’ie nibaratsake.
And they were wandering in every direction because there was no keeper: and they became food for all the beasts of the field.
6 Nirereke o añondrikoo, nirererere amo vohitse iabio, naho amo hene haboañeo; songa nibarakaik’ ambone’ ty tane toy i lia-raikoy, vaho tsy teo ty nipay ndra nitsoeke.
And my sheep went out of the way, wandering through all the mountains and on every high hill: my sheep went here and there over all the face of the earth; and no one was troubled about them or went in search of them.
7 Aa le janjiño ty tsara’ Iehovà ry mpiarake;
For this cause, O keepers of the flock, give ear to the word of the Lord:
8 Kanao velon-dRaho hoe t’Iehovà Talè, amy te ninjare fitsindrohañe i lia-raikoy, fihinana’ ze biby an-kivok’ ao, ie tsy amam-piarake; tsy pinai’ o mpiarakeo i lia-raikoy, fa namaham-batañe o mpiarakeo, le tsy finaha’ iareo i lia-raikoy;
By my life, says the Lord, truly, because my sheep have been taken away, and my sheep became food for all the beasts of the field, because there was no keeper, and my keepers did not go in search of the sheep, but the keepers took food for themselves and gave my sheep no food;
9 inao arè, ry mpiarakeo, janjiño ty tsara’ Iehovà.
For this reason, O you keepers of the flock, give ear to the word of the Lord;
10 Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè: Oniño te atreatrèko o mpiarakeo; le ho paiako am-pità’ iareo i lia-raikoy naho hazìko tsy ho mpamahañe i lia-raikoy ka; vaho tsy hamaham-batañe ka o mpiarakeo; fa ho hahako am-palie’ iareo i lia-raikoy, tsy ho fitsindroke.
This is what the Lord has said: See I am against the keepers of the flock, and I will make search and see what they have done with my sheep, and will let them be keepers of my sheep no longer; and the keepers will no longer get food for themselves; I will take my sheep out of their mouths so that they may not be food for them.
11 Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè; Inao, etoan-dRaho, ho paiako o añondrikoo, toe ho kodabaeko.
For this is what the Lord has said: Truly, I, even I, will go searching and looking for my sheep.
12 Hambañe ami’ty fitsoeha’ ty mpiarake i lia-rai’ey ami’ty andro maha-añivo’ o añondri’e nifampiriariao, ty hidabadabaeko o añondrikoo handrombahako iareo amy ze hene toetse nibaratsaha’ iareo an-kopok’ andro migoboñey.
As the keeper goes looking for his flock when he is among his wandering sheep, so I will go looking for my sheep, and will get them safely out of all the places where they have been sent wandering in the day of clouds and black night.
13 Le hampoliko boak’ amo kilakila’ndatio iereo naho hatontoko boak’ amo fifelehañeo naho haseseko mb’an-tane’ iareo ao vaho handrazeko amo vohi’ Israeleo, marine’ o sakao naho amy ze fonga kialo amy taney ao.
And I will take them out from among the peoples, and get them together from the countries, and will take them into their land; and I will give them food on the mountains of Israel by the water-streams and wherever men are living in the country.
14 Ho fahanako am-piandrazañe maindoñe, naho ho golobo’ iareo o haboa’ Israeleo; ao ty handrea’ iareo an-goloboñe soa; naho añ’ ahetse vokatse; amo vohi’ Israeleo ty hiandraze’ iereo.
I will give them good grass-land for their food, and their safe place will be the mountains of the high place of Israel: there they will take their rest in a good place, and on fat grass-land they will take their food on the mountains of Israel.
15 Ho fahanako i lia-raikoy vaho hampàndreko, hoe t’Iehovà Talè.
I myself will give food to my flock, and I will give them rest, says the Lord.
16 Ho tsoeheko o nandifikeo, naho hampoliko indraike o rinoakeo naho ho bandieko ze nifolake vaho hampaozareko o nisilokeo, fa ho rotsaheko o vondrakeo naho o maozatseo, vaho hifahanako zaka.
I will go in search of that which had gone wandering from the way, and will get back that which had been sent in flight, and will put bands on that which was broken, and give strength to that which was ill: but the fat and the strong I will give up to destruction; I will give them for their food the punishment which is theirs by right.
17 Aa naho inahareo, ry lia-raiko, hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè: Inao, t’ie hizaka añivo’ ty lia-raike naho ty lia-raike, vaho añivo’ ty añondri-lahy naho ty ose-lahy.
And as for you, O my flock, says the Lord, truly, I will be judge between sheep and sheep, the he-sheep and the he-goats.
18 Atao’ areo ho minjilite’e hao te nihàne’ areo ty fiandrazañe soa, vaho nilialià’ ty tombo’ areo ty sisa’ i fiandrazañey? le ie ninon-drano mitoratsike ro nandeotse ty sisa’ i ranoy an-tombo’ areo?
Does it seem a small thing to you to have taken your food on good grass-land while the rest of your grass-land is stamped down under your feet? and that after drinking from clear waters you make the rest of the waters dirty with your feet?
19 Aa le mihinañe o nilialian-tombo’ areoo o añondrikoo, vaho minoñe amo nileoren-tombo’ areoo.
And as for my sheep, their food is the grass which has been stamped on by your feet, and their drink the water which has been made dirty by your feet.
20 Aa le hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè am’ iereo: Inao! Izaho le Izaho avao ty hizaka añivo’ o añondry vondrakeo naho o añondry boròkao;
For this reason the Lord has said to them, Truly, I, even I, will be judge between the fat sheep and the thin sheep.
21 amy te naronje’ areo ami’ty ila’o naho an-tsoro’o, naho dinodo’ areo an-tsifa am-para’ te nabaratsa’o mb’alafe añe.
Because you have been pushing with side and leg, pushing the diseased with your horns till they were sent away in every direction;
22 Ho rombaheko i lia-raikoy, naho le lia’e tsy ho fitsindrohañe ka; ie hizaka añivo’ ty añondry naho ty añondry.
I will make my flock safe, and they will no longer be taken away, and I will be judge between sheep and sheep.
23 Le hampitroareko ty mpiarake hifehe iareo, le ho razañe’e, ty mpitoroko Davide izay; ie ty hiarake, ie ty ho mpiara’ iareo.
And I will put over them one keeper, and he will give them food, even my servant David; he will give them food and be their keeper.
24 Izaho Iehovà ty ho Andrianañahare’ iareo, vaho i mpitoroko Davidey ty ho roandria’ iereo; Izaho Iehovà ty nitsara.
And I the Lord will be their God and my servant David their ruler; I the Lord have said it.
25 Hampijadoñeko fañinam-pañanintsiñe iereo, vaho haziko alafe’ i taney añe o biby maolao; ie hiaiñañoleñañe am-patrambey ao naho hiroro añ’ala ao.
And I will make with them an agreement of peace, and will put an end to evil beasts through all the land: and they will be living safely in the waste land, sleeping in the woods.
26 Le hitolorako fitahiañe naho toetse mañohoke i vohikoy, hampahaviako an-tsa’e ty orañe naho ty oram-pañanintsiñe.
And I will give the rain at the right time, and I will make the shower come down at the right time; there will be showers of blessing.
27 Hamoa voa o hatae an-goloboñeo, naho hañakatse ty havokara’e ty tane, hierañerañe an-tane’e ao iereo vaho ho fohi’ iereo te Izaho Iehovà, ro nampibarabijo ty talirandran-joka’ iareo naho nampipitsoke iareo am-pità’ o nañondevoo.
And the tree of the field will give its fruit and the earth will give its increase, and they will be safe in their land; and they will be certain that I am the Lord, when I have had their yoke broken and have given them salvation from the hands of those who made them servants.
28 Ie le lia’e tsy ho’ fitsatsà’ o kilakila’ ndatio ka naho tsy habotse’ o bibin-taneo; te mone hiaiñañoleñañe, vaho tsy eo ty hañembañe.
And their goods will no longer be taken by the nations, and they will not again be food for the beasts of the earth; but they will be living safely and no one will be a cause of fear to them.
29 Hampitiriako ty hatae maro-tea; ie tsy ho mongore’ ty kerè an-tane ao ka, vaho, ie tsy hivave ty hasalara’ o kilakila’ ndatio.
And I will give them planting-places of peace, and they will no longer be wasted from need of food or put to shame by the nations.
30 Ho fohi’ iereo te Iehovà Andrianañahare’ iareo iraho, ty mpañimba’ iareo; toe ondatiko i anjomba’ Israeley, hoe t’Iehovà Talè.
And they will be certain that I the Lord their God am with them, and that they, the children of Israel, are my people, says the Lord.
31 Inahareo, ry añondriko, ry lia-raim-piandrazeko, toe ondaty, le Izaho ro Andrianañahare’ areo, hoe t’Iehovà Talè.
And you are my sheep, the sheep of my grass-lands, and I am your God, says the Lord.
