Zakaria 11
1 Sokafo o lalam-bei’oo ry Libanone hampibotseha’ ty afo o mendoraveñeo.
Open, O Lebanon, your doors, And fire devours among your cedars.
2 Mangololoiha, ry talý, fa nideboñe i mendoraveñey; fa nianto o nanam-bolonahetseo; Mangoihoìa, ry kile’ i Basane fa hinatsake i ala matahetsey.
Howl, O fir, for the cedar has fallen, For their majestic ones were destroyed, Howl, you oaks of Bashan, For the enclosed forest has come down,
3 Inao! ty fitoreova’ o mpiarakeo, fa mianto ty enge’ iareo; Inao! ty fitroña’ o liona tora’eo, fa robake ty fisengea’ Iordane.
A voice of the howling of the shepherds! For their robe of honor was destroyed, A voice of the roaring of young lions! For the excellence of Jordan was destroyed.
4 Hoe t’Iehovà Andrianañahareko: Andrazo i lia-raike ho zamaneñey;
Thus said my God YHWH: “Feed the flock of the slaughter,
5 Vonoe’ o mpikaloo iareo fe tsy liloveñe, le manao ty hoe o mandetake iareoo: Andriañeñe t’Iehovà, amy te nahampañarivo ahy; vaho tsy tretreze’ o mpiara’eo.
Whose buyers slay them, and are not guilty, And their sellers say, Blessed [is] YHWH, And I am rich, And their shepherds have no pity on them.
6 Aa le tsy ho ferenaiñako ka ty mpimone’ i taney, hoe t’Iehovà; Inao, songa haseseko am-pitàn-drañe’e t’indaty naho am-pitàm-panjaka’e; ho demohe’ iereo i taney, le izaho tsy hamotsotse am-pità’iareo.
For I no longer have pity on inhabitants of the land, A declaration of YHWH, And behold, I am causing man to come forth, Each into the hand of his neighbor, And into the hand of his king, And they have beaten down the land, And I do not deliver out of their hand.”
7 Aa le nifahanako i lia-raike ho lentañey, o vata’e rarake amy lia-raikeio. Le rinambeko ty kobaiñe roe; ty natao Isoke naho ty natao Vanditse; vaho nandrazeko i lia-raikey.
And I feed the flock of slaughter, even you, you afflicted of the flock; and I take two staffs to myself; I have called one Pleasantness, and I have called the other Bands, and I feed the flock.
8 Naitoeko añate’ ty vola’e raike ty mpiarake telo; Toe tsy nahaliñe iareo ty troko, vaho nalaiñe ahy ka ty tro’ iareo.
And I cut off the three shepherds in one month, and my soul is grieved with them, and also their soul has abhorred me.
9 Aa le hoe iraho: Tsy handrazeko nahareo adono hivetrake ze hivetrake; apoho haito ze haito; vaho angao hifampihinañe ty nofo’e o sehanga’eo.
And I say, “I do not feed you, the dying, let die; and the cut off, let be cut off; and the remaining ones, let each eat the flesh of its neighbor.”
10 Rinambeko i kobaiko atao Isokey, le tsineratserako, hifoterako amy fañina nanoeko am’ondaty iabio.
And I take my staff Pleasantness, and cut it apart, to make void my covenant that I had made with all the peoples:
11 Toe pinozako amy andro zay; vaho nifohi’ ze mañaoñe ahy amo misotry amy lia-raikeio t’ie nitsarae’ Iehovà.
and it is broken in that day, and the afflicted of the flock who are observing me know well, that it [is] a word of YHWH.
12 Aa le hoe ty asako tam’ iereo: Naho atao’ areo te mañeva le atoloro ahy ty tambeko; fa naho tsie le apoho; vaho linanja’ iareo ty volafoty telo-polo ho tambeko.
And I say to them: “If good in your eyes, give my hire, and if not, refrain”; and they weigh out my hire—thirty pieces of silver.
13 Le hoe t’Iehovà tamako: Afetsaho mb’amy mpanao valàñe taney mb’eo i vili’e sarotse nikaloa’ iareo ahikoy. Nendeseko amy zao i volafoty telopoloy vaho nahifiko amy mpanao valàñe taney añ’anjomba’ Iehovà ao.
And YHWH says to me, “Cast it to the potter”; the good price that I have been prized at by them, and I take the thirty pieces of silver, and cast them [into] the house of YHWH, to the potter.
14 Tsineratserako ka i kobaiko faharoe atao Vanditsey, soa t’ie hibalake ty fifampilongoa’ Iehodà naho Israele.
And I cut apart my second staff, Bands, To break the unity between Judah and Israel.
15 Le hoe t’Iehovà tamako: Rambeso indraike o haraom-piarake gegegegeo.
And YHWH says to me, “Again take to yourself the instrument of a foolish shepherd.
16 Ingo, hampitroareko mpiarake tsy hañaoñe o naitoañ’ amy taneio naho tsy hitsoeke o tora’eo, naho tsy ho melañe’e o folakeo, vaho tsy ho fahana’e o mbe mijohañeo, fa ho kamae’e ty hena’ o vondrakeo, naho ho pozapozahe’e o hotro’eo.
For behold, I am raising up a shepherd in the land, The cut off he does not inspect, The shaken off he does not seek, And the broken he does not heal, The standing he does not sustain, And the flesh of the fat he eats, And their hooves he breaks off.
17 Hankàñe amy mpiarake tsy jefa’e mahafari’ i lia-raikeiy! ho an-tsira’e ty fibara naho am-pihaino’e havana; hiforejeje i sira’ey ho maieñe i fihaino’e havanay.
Woe [to] the worthless shepherd, forsaking the flock, A sword [is] on his arm, and on his right eye, His arm is utterly dried up, And his right eye is very dim!”
