< Sakaria 11 >
1 Buebue wʼapono, Ao Lebanon, na ogya mmɛhye wo ntweneduro!
Open O Lebanon doors your so it may consume fire cedars your.
2 Twa adwo wo pepeaa, na ntweneduro ahwe ase; wɔasɛe nnua a ɛwɔ animuonyam no! Twa adwo Basan adum; wɔabubu kwaeɛbirentuo no mu nnua no!
Wail O cypress for it has fallen a cedar that majestic [trees] they have been devastated wail O oaks of Bashan for it has come down [the] forest (of the vintage. *Q(K)*)
3 Tie nnwanhwɛfoɔ agyaadwoɔ; wɔasɛe wɔn adidibea frɔmfrɔm no! Tie agyata no mmobom; Yordan ho nkyɛkyerɛ fɛfɛ no asɛe!
[the] sound of [the] wailing of The shepherds for it has been devastated splendor their [the] sound of [the] roaring of young lions for it has been devastated [the] thicket[s] of the Jordan.
4 Yei ne deɛ Awurade me Onyankopɔn seɛ: “Fa nnwankuo a wɔrebɛku wɔn no kɔ adidibea.
Thus he says Yahweh God my shepherd [the] flock of slaughter.
5 Atɔfoɔ no kunkumm nnwan no na wɔntwe wɔn aso. Wɔn a wɔtɔn nnwan no ka sɛ, ‘Monkamfo Awurade, mayɛ ɔdefoɔ!’ Na nnwan no ahwɛfoɔ no mpo nnya ahummɔborɔ mma wɔn.
Which [those who] buy them they will kill them and not they will be held guilty and [those who] sell them he will say [be] blessed Yahweh so I may gain riches and shepherds their not he will have compassion on them.
6 Merenhunu asase no so nnipa mmɔbɔ bio,” sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ nie. “Mede obiara bɛhyɛ ne yɔnko ne ɔhene nsa. Wɔbɛhyɛ asase no so, na merennye obiara mfiri wɔn nsa mu.”
For not I will have compassion again on [the] inhabitants of the land [the] utterance of Yahweh and here! I [am] about to deliver everyone each in [the] hand of neighbor his and in [the] hand of king his and they will crush the land and not I will deliver [it] from hand their.
7 Enti mede nnwankuo a wɔrekɔkum wɔn no kɔɔ adidibea, ne titire ne wɔn a wɔayɛ mmɔbɔ no. Afei, mefaa poma mmienu, na mefrɛɛ baako Adɔeɛ ɛnna baako nso Nkabom na mede wɔn kɔɔ adidie.
And I shepherded [the] flock of slaughter therefore [the] afflicted [ones] of the flock and I took for myself two staffs one I called Favor and one I called Union and I shepherded the flock.
8 Ɔbosome baako mu, mepamoo nnwanhwɛfoɔ mmiɛnsa no. Nnwankuo no ampɛ me, na wɔmaa me brɛeɛ
And I annihilated [the] three the shepherds in a month one and it was short self my with them and also self their it loathed me.
9 na mekaa sɛ, “Merenyɛ mo hwɛfoɔ bio. Wɔn a wɔrewu nwu, na wɔn a wɔreyera nso nyera. Na ma wɔn a aka no nso nkyekye wɔn ho wɔn ho nwe.”
And I said not I will shepherd you the [one which] dies let it die and the [one which] is being destroyed let it be destroyed and those [which] survive let them devour each [the] flesh of [female] neighbor its.
10 Afei, mefaa me poma a mefrɛ no Adɔeɛ no bubuu mu de sɛee apam a me ne aman no nyinaa ayɛ no.
And I took staff my Favor and I cut up it to break covenant my which I had made with all the peoples.
11 Wɔsɛee no ɛda no ara, na wɔn a wɔrehunu amane wɔ nnwankuo no mu a na wɔrehwɛ me no hunuu sɛ, ɛyɛ Awurade asɛm.
And it was broken on the day that and they knew thus [the] afflicted [ones] of the flock who were watching me that [was] [the] word of Yahweh it.
12 Na meka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Sɛ ɛbɛyɛ yie a, montua me ka, na sɛ ɛnte saa nso a, momma ɛntena hɔ.” Enti, wɔtuaa dwetɛ mpɔ aduasa maa me.
And I said to them if it is good in view your give wage[s] my and if not - refrain and they weighed out wage[s] my thirty silver.
13 Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ me sɛ, “To ma ɔnwomfoɔ no,” ɛboɔ a ɛsɔ ani a wɔatwa ama me no. Enti, mefaa dwetɛ mpɔ aduasa no, na meto maa ɔnwomfoɔ a ɔwɔ Awurade fie mu no.
And he said Yahweh to me throw it to the potter [the] magnificence of the value which I was valued from with them and I took! thirty the silver and I threw it [the] house of Yahweh to the potter.
14 Afei, mebuu me poma a ɛtɔ so mmienu a wɔfrɛ no Nkabom no mu, de sɛee onuayɛ a ɛda Yuda ne Israel ntam no.
And I cut up staff my second Union to break the brotherhood between Judah and between Israel.
15 Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ me sɛ, “Fa odwanhwɛfoɔ kwasea no nneɛma no bio.
And he said Yahweh to me again take for yourself [the] equipment of a shepherd foolish.
16 Na merebɛma odwanhwɛfoɔ bi asɔre asase no so a ɔrenhwehwɛ deɛ wayera. Ɔrempɛ nnwammaa akyiri ɛkwan, ɔrensa deɛ wapira yadeɛ, ɔremma deɛ ɔwɔ ahoɔden aduane, na mmom, ɔbɛwe nnwan a wadɔre no nam, na watwitwa wɔn tɔte.
For here! I [am] about to raise up a shepherd in the land those [which] are being destroyed not he will visit the young man not he will seek and the [one which] is maimed not he will heal the [one which] stands firm not he will sustain and [the] flesh of the fat [sheep] he will eat and hooves their he will tear off.
17 “Nnome nka odwanhwɛfoɔ a ne ho nni mfasoɔ, na ɔdwane gya nnwankuo no! Akofena ntwa nʼabasa, ne nʼani nifa. Nʼabasa no nwu koraa, na nʼani nifa no mfira koraa!”
Woe to! shepherd of my worthlessness [who] abandons the flock a sword [will be] on arm his and on [the] eye of right [side] his arm his totally it will wither and [the] eye of right [side] his certainly it will grow dim.
