Ezequiel 34
1 La Palabra de Yavé vino a mí:
And the word of Yahweh came unto me, saying:
2 Hijo de hombre, profetiza contra los pastores de Israel. Profetiza y dí a esos pastores: ʼAdonay Yavé dice: ¡Ay de los pastores de Israel que se apacientan a sí mismos! ¿No deben los pastores apacentar las ovejas?
Son of man, Prophesy against the shepherds of Israel, - Prophesy, and thou shalt say unto them, even to the shepherds— Thus, saith My Lord Yahweh— Alas! for the shepherds of Israel who have been tending, themselves, Is it not the flock that the shepherds should tend?
3 Comen la sustancia, se visten con la lana y matan lo cebado, pero no apacientan el rebaño.
The milk, ye do eat And with the wool, ye do clothe your- selves, The well-fed, ye do sacrifice, The flock, ye do not tend
4 No fortalecieron a las débiles, ni curaron a la enferma, ni vendaron a la perniquebrada, ni devolvieron a la descarriada al redil, ni buscaron a la perdida, sino se enseñorearon de ellas con dureza y rigor.
The weak, have ye not strengthened And, the sick, have ye not healed. And the torn, have ye not bound up, And that which was driven out, have ye not brought back, And that which was straying, have ye not sought out; But with force, have ye ruled them and with rigour.
5 Ellas andan errantes por falta de pastor, son presa de todas las fieras del campo y se dispersaron.
And they were scattered, because there was no shepherd; And they became food for every wild beast of the field. So were they scattered.
6 Mis ovejas andan errantes por todas las montañas y sobre toda colina alta. Mis ovejas fueron esparcidas por toda la superficie de la tierra, y no hubo quien las buscara ni quien preguntara por ellas.
My sheep did wander through all the mountains, And over every high hill, - And over all the face of the land, were my sheep scattered, And there was none to inquire And none to seek out.
7 Por tanto oh pastores, oigan la Palabra de ʼAdonay Yavé:
Wherefore ye shepherds, hear ye the word of Yahweh:
8 Vivo Yo, dice ʼAdonay Yavé, ya que mis pastores no cuidaron mi rebaño, éste se convirtió en objeto de presa y mis ovejas en comida de todas las fieras del campo por falta de pastor. Los pastores se apacientan ellos mismos y no apacientan mis ovejas.
As I live, — Declareth My Lord Yahweh, Surely because my flock became a prey. And my flock became food for every wild beast of the field, through having no shepherd, Neither did my shepherds inquire after the flock, —But the shepherds tended themselves. And my flock, they tended not
9 Oigan, oh pastores, la Palabra de Yavé.
Therefore ye shepherds, hear ye the word of Yahweh:
10 ʼAdonay Yavé dice: Ciertamente Yo estoy contra los pastores. Demandaré de su mano mis ovejas, y dejarán de apacentarlas. Los pastores ya no se apacentarán ellos mismos, pues Yo libraré mis ovejas de sus bocas para que ya no les sirvan de comida.
Thus, saith My Lord. Yahweh, Behold me! against the shepherds So then I will require my flock at their hand And will cause them to cease tending the flock, Neither shall the shepherds any longer tend themselves, But I will deliver my flock out of their mouth, that they may not be their food.
11 Porque ʼAdonay Yavé dice: En verdad, Yo mismo buscaré a mis ovejas y las reconoceré.
For Thus saith My Lord. Yahweh, - Here am I myself Therefore will I inquire after my flock and seek them out:
12 Como el pastor reconoce su rebaño el día cuando está en medio de sus ovejas esparcidas, así reconoceré mis ovejas y las libraré de todos los lugares en los cuales fueron esparcidas en día nublado y oscuro.
As a shepherd seeketh out his flock in the day he is in the midst of his sheep that are scattered, So! will I seek out my sheep, and will deliver them out of all the places where they were scattered in the day of cloud and thick darkness;
13 Las sacaré de entre los pueblos. Las reuniré de las naciones y las traeré a su propia tierra. Las apacentaré en las montañas de Israel, en los valles y en todos los lugares habitados de la tierra.
And I will bring them out from among the peoples And will gather them out of the lands, And will bring them upon their own soil, And will tend them Upon the mountains of Israel, In the ravines. And in all the habitable places of the land:
14 Las apacentaré en buenos prados, y en las altas montañas de Israel estará su redil. Allí dormirán en buen redil. Serán apacentadas en rico prado sobre las montañas de Israel.
In good pastures, will I feed them, And on the mountains of the height of Israel, shall be their fold, — There, shall they lie down in a fold that is good, And on pasture that is fat, shall they feed. among the mountains of Israel.
15 Yo apacentaré mi rebaño y lo llevaré a descansar, dice ʼAdonay Yavé.
I myself, will tend my flock. And, I myself, will cause them to lie down, Declareth My Lord Yahweh:
16 Yo buscaré a la perdida, devolveré a la descarriada, vendaré a la perniquebrada y fortaleceré a la débil. Pero destruiré la gorda y la fuerte. Las apacentaré con justicia.
That which is straying, will I seek out. And that which hath been driven away, will I bring back, And that which is torn, will I bind up, And the weak, will I strengthen, - But the fat and the strong, will I watch I will feed them with justice.
17 En cuanto a ti, rebaño mío, ʼAdonay Yavé dice: Ciertamente Yo juzgo entre oveja y oveja, entre carneros y machos cabríos.
And as for you O my flock, Thus saith My Lord. Yahweh: Behold me! judging between one kind of small cattle and another as well the rams as the he-goats.
18 ¿Es poca cosa para ustedes que se alimenten de buen prado para que también pisoteen el resto de su pasto? ¿O que beban el agua clara y enturbien con sus pies el resto?
Is it too small a thing for you that on the good pasture, ye feed, But the remainder of your pastures, ye must needs trample down with your feet? Or that of the pure waters, ye drink But the waters left remaining—with your feet, ye must needs foul?
19 ¿Y que tengan mis ovejas que comer lo pisoteado y beber lo enturbiado con sus pies?
And my flock On what hath been trampled down by your feet, may feed, And of what hath been fouled by your feet, may drink?
20 Por tanto ʼAdonay Yavé dice: Miren, Yo mismo juzgaré entre la oveja gorda y la oveja flaca.
Therefore Thus, saith My Lord Yahweh, unto them: Here am I myself. Therefore will I judge between fat sheep and lean sheep,
21 Porque con el costado y el hombro empujan y con sus cuernos atacan a todas las débiles hasta cuando las echan fuera y las dispersan.
Because with the side and with the shoulder, ye do thrust, And with your horns, ye do push all the sick, — Until you have scattered them abroad
22 Por tanto Yo libraré a mi rebaño. Ya no serán una presa. Juzgaré entre una oveja y otra.
Therefore will I bring salvation to my flock, and they shall be no longer a prey, —but I will judge between one sheep and another,
23 Levantaré sobre ellas a un pastor: a mi esclavo David. Él las apacentará y será su pastor.
And I will raise up over them one shepherd And he shall tend them, Even my servant David, — He, will tend them, And, he, will become to them a shepherd;
24 Yo, Yavé, les seré ʼElohim, y mi esclavo David será jefe entre ellas. Yo, Yavé, hablé.
And, I Yahweh, will become to them a God. my servant David, being a prince in their midst, — I Yahweh, have spoken;
25 Estableceré con ellas un Pacto de paz. Eliminaré las fieras de la tierra. Vivirán seguras en el desierto y dormirán en los bosques.
And I will solemnise for them a covenant of prosperity, And will cause to cease the mischievous wild-beast out of the land, And they shall dwell in the wilderness, securely, And shall sleep in the forests;
26 Haré que ellas y los lugares alrededor de mi colina sean una bendición, y enviaré las lluvias en su tiempo. Serán lluvias de bendición.
And I, will make them and the places round about my hill a blessing, - And I will cause the abundant rain to come down in its season abundant rains of blessing, shall they be;
27 El árbol del campo y la tierra darán sus frutos. Estarán sobre la tierra con seguridad. Sabrán que Yo soy Yavé cuando rompa las correas de su yugo y las libre de mano de aquellos que se servían de ellas.
And the tree of the field shall yield his fruit And, the land, shall yield her increase, And they shall remain on their own soil in security, - So shall they know that I, am Yahweh, When I have broken the bars of their yoke, And shall deliver them out of the hand of them who have been using them as slaves.
28 No volverán a ser despojo de las naciones, ni las fieras de la tierra las devorarán, sino habitarán con seguridad. No habrá quien las aterrorice.
And they shall be no longer a prey for the nations, Nor shall the wild beast of the earth! devour them, — But they shall dwell securely with none to put them in terror.
29 Yo levantaré para ellas una vegetación renombrada. Ya no serán consumidas por el hambre en la tierra, ni llevarán la afrenta de las naciones.
And I will raise up unto them a plantation for fame, - And there shall be no longer the destroyed of hunger in the land, Neither shall they bear any longer the reproach of the nations.
30 Sabrán que Yo, Yavé su ʼElohim, estoy con ellas, y que ellos, la Casa de Israel, son mi pueblo, dice ʼAdonay Yavé.
So shall they know that, I, Yahweh their God am with them, - And that they are my people the house of Israel, Declareth My Lord. Yahweh.
31 Y ustedes, ovejas mías, ovejas de mi prado, son hombres, y Yo soy su ʼElohim, dice ʼAdonay Yavé.
Ye, therefore, my flock the flock of my pasture, are, men, — I, am your God, Declareth My Lord Yahweh.
