Zakkaariyaas 11
1 Yaa Libaanoon, akka ibiddi birbirsa kee gubee fixuuf balbala kee banadhu!
Open thy doors, O Lebanon, that the fire may devour thy cedars.
2 Yaa muka gaattiraa, birbirsi kufeeraatii wawwaadhu; mukkeen ulfina qaban badaniiru! Yaa qilxuu Baashaan wawwaadhu; bosonni gobbuun ciramee dhumeera!
Howl, O fir tree, for the cedar is fallen, because the goodly ones are spoiled: howl, O ye oaks of Bashan, for the strong forest is come down.
3 Wawwaannaa tiksootaa dhaggeeffadhaa; lafti tika isaanii inni gabbataan barbadaaʼeeraatii! Aaduu leencaa dhagaʼaa; bosonni Yordaanos gobbuun sun barbadaaʼeeraatii!
A voice of the howling of the shepherds! for their glory is spoiled: a voice of the roaring of young lions! for the pride of Jordan is spoiled.
4 Waaqayyo Waaqni koo akkana jedha: “Bushaayee qalmaaf qopheeffaman tiksi.
Thus said the LORD my God: Feed the flock of slaughter;
5 Warri isaan bitatan, qalatanii utuu hin adabamin hafu. Warri gurguratanis, ‘Waaqayyoon galanni haa gaʼu; ani sooressa!’ jedhu. Tiksoonni isaanii garaa isaaniif hin laafan.
whose possessors slay them, and hold themselves not guilty; and they that sell them say, Blessed be the LORD, for I am rich: and their own shepherds pity them not.
6 Ani siʼachi uummata biyyattiitiif garaa hin laafuutii” jedha Waaqayyo. “Ani nama hunda dabarsee ollaa isaatii fi mootii isaatti nan kenna. Isaan biyyattii ni rukutu; anis harka isaaniitii isaan hin baasu.”
For I will no more pity the inhabitants of the land, saith the LORD: but, lo, I will deliver the men every one into his neighbour’s hand, and into the hand of his king: and they shall smite the land, and out of their hand I will not deliver them.
7 Kanaafuu ani bushaayee qalmaaf qopheeffaman, keessumattuu kanneen bushaayee cunqurfaman nan tikfadhe. Ergasii ani ulee lama fudhadhee isa tokkoon Surraa isa kaaniin immoo Tokkummaa jedheen moggaase; akkasiinis bushaayee nan tikfadhe.
So I fed the flock of slaughter, verily the poor of the flock. And I took unto me two staves; the one I called Beauty, and the other I called Bands; and I fed the flock.
8 Ani jiʼuma tokko keessatti tiksoota sadan nan balleesse. Lubbuun koo isaan balfite; lubbuun isaaniis na balfite;
And I cut off the three shepherds in one month; for my soul was weary of them, and their soul also loathed me.
9 akkanas jedheen; “Ani tiksee keessan hin taʼu. Kan duʼu haa duʼu; kan badus haa badu. Kanneen hafanis foon walii haa nyaatan.”
Then said I, I will not feed you: that that dieth, let it die; and that that is to be cut off, let it be cut off; and let them which are left eat every one the flesh of another.
10 Ergasii ani kakuu saboota hunda wajjin gale cabsuudhaaf ulee koo kan Surraa jedhamu fuudhee nan cabse.
And I took my staff Beauty, and cut it asunder, that I might break my covenant which I had made with all the peoples.
11 Innis guyyuma sana cabe; kanaafuu bushaayeen dhiphatan kanneen na ilaalaa turan akka wanni kun dubbii Waaqayyoo taʼe beekan.
And it was broken in that day: and thus the poor of the flock that gave heed unto me knew that it was the word of the LORD.
12 Anis, “Yoo wanni kun waan gaarii isinitti fakkaate, gatii koo naaf kennaa; yoo taʼuu baate immoo dhiisaa” nan jedheen. Kanaafuu isaan meetii soddoma naaf kennan.
And I said unto them, If ye think good, give me my hire; and if not, forbear. So they weighed for my hire thirty [pieces] of silver.
13 Waaqayyos gatii gaarii isaan itti na shallagan sana, “Mankuusa keessa buusi!” naan jedhe. Kanaafuu ani meetii soddomman sana fuudhee mana Waaqayyoo keessatti mankuusa keessa nan buuse.
And the LORD said unto me, Cast it unto the potter, the goodly price that I was prised at of them. And I took the thirty [pieces] of silver, and cast them unto the potter, in the house of the LORD.
14 Ergasii ani obbolummaa Yihuudaatii fi Israaʼel diiguudhaaf ulee koo lammaffaa kan Tokkummaa jedhamu sana nan cabse.
Then I cut asunder mine other staff, even Bands, that I might break the brotherhood between Judah and Israel.
15 Kana irratti Waaqayyo akkana naan jedhe; “Ammas miʼa tiksee gowwaa sanaa fuudhi.
And the LORD said unto me, Take unto thee yet again the instruments of a foolish shepherd.
16 Ani kunoo biyyattii keessatti tiksee hoolotaa nan kaasa; innis isa bade hin yaadatu; isa joore hin barbaadu; isa cabe hin walʼaanu; isa fayye hin sooru; garuu foon coomaa ni nyaata; kottee isaaniis ni caccabsa.
For, lo, I will raise up a shepherd in the land, which shall not visit those that be cut off, neither shall seek those that be scattered, nor heal that that is broken; neither shall he feed that which is sound, but he shall eat the flesh of the fat, and shall tear their hoofs in pieces.
17 “Tiksee faayidaa hin qabne kan bushaayee gatee deemuuf wayyoo! Goraadeen irree isaatii fi ija isaa mirgaa haa dhaʼu! Irreen isaa guutumaan guutuutti haa goggogu; iji isaa mirgaa guutumaan guutuutti haa jaamu!”
Woe to the worthless shepherd that leaveth the flock, the sword shall be upon his arm, and upon his right eye: his arm shall be clean dried up, and his right eye shall be utterly darkened.
