< Ezekiel 34 >
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
2 “Ọmọ ènìyàn, fi àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ tako Olùṣọ́-àgùntàn Israẹli; sọtẹ́lẹ̀ fún wọn pé: ‘Èyí yìí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: Ègbé ni fún olùṣọ́-àgùntàn Israẹli tí ó ń tọ́jú ara wọn nìkan! Ṣé ó dára kí olùṣọ́-àgùntàn ṣaláì tọ́jú agbo ẹran?
Son of man, prophesy concerning the shepherds of Israel: prophesy, and say to the shepherds: Thus saith the Lord God: Woe to the shepherds of Israel, that fed themselves: should not the hocks be fed by the shepherds?
3 Ìwọ jẹ wàrà. O sì wọ aṣọ olówùú sí ara rẹ, o sì ń pa ẹran tí ó wù ọ́, ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ kò tọ́jú agbo ẹran.
You ate the milk, and you clothed yourselves with the wool, and you killed that which was fat: but my flock you did not feed.
4 Ìwọ kò ì tí ì mú aláìlágbára lára le tàbí wo aláìsàn sàn tàbí di ọgbẹ́ fún ẹni tí o fi ara pa. Ìwọ kò í tí ì mú aṣáko padà tàbí wá ẹni tí ó nù. Ìwọ ṣe àkóso wọn ní ọ̀nà lílé pẹ̀lú ìwà òǹrorò.
The weak you have not strengthened, and that which was sick you have not healed, that which was broken you have not bound up, and that which was driven away you have not brought again, neither have you sought that which was lost: but you ruled over them with rigour, and with a high hand.
5 Nítorí náà wọn fọ́n káàkiri nítorí àìsí olùṣọ́-àgùntàn, nígbà tí wọ́n fọ́nká tán wọn di ìjẹ fún gbogbo ẹranko búburú.
And my sheep were scattered, because there was no shepherd: and they became the prey of all the beasts of the field, and were scattered.
6 Àgùntàn mi n rin ìrìn àrè kiri ní gbogbo àwọn òkè gíga àti òkè kékeré. A fọ́n wọn ká gbogbo orí ilẹ̀ ẹni kankan kò sì wá wọn.
My sheep have wandered in every mountain, and in every high hill: and my flocks mere scattered upon the face of the earth, and there was none that sought them, there was none, I say, that sought them.
7 “‘Nítorí náà, ìwọ olùṣọ́-àgùntàn, gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa.
Therefore, ye shepherds, hear the word of the Lord:
8 Níwọ́n ìgbà tí mo wà láààyè ní Olúwa Olódùmarè wí, nítorí pé agbo ẹran mi kò ní olùṣọ́-àgùntàn nítorí tí a kọ̀ wọ́n, tì wọ́n sì di ìjẹ fún ẹranko búburú gbogbo àti pé, nítorí tí àwọn olùṣọ́-àgùntàn mi kò ṣe àwárí agbo ẹran mi, ṣùgbọ́n wọn ń ṣe ìtọ́jú ara wọn dípò ìtọ́jú agbo ẹran mi,
As I live, saith the Lord God, forasmuch as my flocks have been made a spoil, and my sheep are become a prey to all the beasts of the field, because there was no shepherd: for my shepherds did not seek after my flock, but the shepherds fed themselves, and fed not my flocks:
9 nítorí náà, ẹ̀yin olùṣọ́-àgùntàn, gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa.
Therefore, ye shepherds, hear the word of the Lord:
10 Èyí yìí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: Èmi ṣe ìlòdì sí àwọn Olùṣọ́-àgùntàn, èmi yóò sì béèrè agbo ẹran mi lọ́wọ́ wọn. Èmi yóò sì mú wọn dẹ́kun àti máa darí agbo ẹran mi, tí àwọn olùṣọ́-àgùntàn náà kò sì ní lè bọ́ ara wọn mọ́. Èmi yóò gba agbo ẹran mi kúrò ni ẹnu wọn, kì yóò sì jẹ́ oúnjẹ fún wọn mọ́.
Thus saith the Lord God: Behold I myself come upon the shepherds, I will require my hock at their hand, and I will cause them to cease from feeding the flock any more, neither shall the shepherds feed themselves any more: and I will deliver my flock from their mouth, and it shall no more be meat for them.
11 “‘Nítorí èyí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: Èmi fúnra mi yóò wá àgùntàn mi kiri, èmi yóò sì ṣe àwárí wọn.
For thus saith the Lord God: Behold I myself will seek my sheep, and will visit them.
12 Gẹ́gẹ́ bí olùṣọ́-àgùntàn ṣe fojú tó agbo ẹran rẹ̀ tí ó fọ́nká nígbà tí ó wà pẹ̀lú wọn, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi yóò ṣe fojú tó àgùntàn mi. Èmi yóò gbá wọn kúrò ni gbogbo ibi tí wọ́n fọ́nká sí ni ọjọ́ ìkùùkuu àti òkùnkùn.
As the shepherd visiteth his hock in the day when he shall be in the midst of his sheep that were scattered, so will I visit my sheep, and will deliver them out of all the places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day.
13 Èmi yóò mú wọn jáde kúrò ní àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè, èmi yóò sì kó wọn jọ láti inú àwọn ìlú, èmi yóò sì mú wọn wá sí ilẹ̀ ara wọn. Èmi yóò mú wọn jẹ ni orí àwọn òkè gíga Israẹli, ni àárín àwọn òkè àti ní gbogbo ibùdó ilẹ̀ náà.
And I will bring them out from the peoples, and will gather them out of the countries, and will bring them to their own land: and I will feed them in the mountains of Israel, by the rivers, and in all the habitations of the land.
14 Èmi yóò ṣe ìtọ́jú wọn ní pápá oko tútù dáradára, àní orí àwọn òkè gíga ti Israẹli ni yóò jẹ́ ilẹ̀ ìjẹ koríko wọ́n. Níbẹ̀ wọn yóò dùbúlẹ̀ ní ilẹ̀ ìjẹ koríko dídára, níbẹ̀ wọn yóò jẹun ní pápá oko tútù tí ó dara ní orí òkè ti Israẹli.
I will feed them in the most fruitful pastures, and their pastures shall be in the high mountains of Israel: there shall they rest on the green grass, and be fed in fat pastures upon the mountains of Israel.
15 Èmi fúnra mi yóò darí àgùntàn mi, èmi yóò mú wọn dùbúlẹ̀, ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí.
I will feed my sheep: and I will cause them to lie down, saith the Lord God.
16 Èmi yóò ṣe àwárí àwọn tí ó nú, èmi yóò mú àwọn tí ó ń rin ìrìn àrè kiri padà. Èmi yóò di ọgbẹ́ àwọn tí ó fi ara pa, èmi yóò sì fún àwọn aláìlágbára ni okun, ṣùgbọ́n àwọn tí ó sanra tí ó sì ni agbára ní èmi yóò parun. Èmi yóò ṣe olùṣọ́ àwọn agbo ẹran náà pẹ̀lú òdodo.
I will seek that which was lost: and that which was driven away, I will bring again: and I will bind up that which was broken, and I will strengthen that which was weak, and that which was fat and strong I will preserve: and I will feed them in judgment.
17 “‘Ní tìrẹ, agbo ẹran mi, èyí yìí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: Èmi yóò ṣe ìdájọ́ láàrín àgùntàn kan àti òmíràn, àti láàrín àgbò àti ewúrẹ́.
And as for you, O my flocks, thus saith the Lord God: Behold I judge between cattle and cattle, of rams and of he goats.
18 Ṣé oúnjẹ jíjẹ ní pápá oko tútù dídára kò tó yín! Ṣé ó jẹ́ dandan fún ọ láti fi ẹsẹ̀ tẹ pápá oko tútù rẹ tí ó kù? Ṣé omi tí ó tòrò kò tó fún yín ní mímu? Ṣe dandan ni kí ó fi ẹrẹ̀ yí ẹsẹ̀ yín?
Was it not enough for you to feed upon good pastures? but you must also tread down with your feet the residue of your pastures: and when you drank the dearest water, you troubled the rest with your feet.
19 Ṣé dandan ni kí agbo ẹran mi jẹ́ koríko tí ẹ ti tẹ̀ mọ́lẹ̀, kí wọn sì mú omi tí wọ́n ti fi ẹsẹ̀ wọn sọ di ẹrẹ̀?
And my sheep were fed with that which you had trodden with your feet: and they drank what your feet had troubled.
20 “‘Nítorí náà, èyí yìí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí fún wọn: Wò ó, èmi fúnra mi yóò ṣe ìdájọ́ láàrín àgùntàn tí ó sanra àti èyí tí ó rù.
Therefore thus saith the Lord God to you: Behold, I myself will judge between the fat cattle and the lean.
21 Nítorí ti ìwọ sún síwájú pẹ̀lú ìhà àti èjìká, tí ìwọ sì kan aláìlágbára àgùntàn pẹ̀lú ìwo rẹ títí ìwọ fi lé wọn lọ,
Because you thrusted with sides and shoulders, and struck all the weak cattle with your horns, till they were scattered abroad:
22 Èmi yóò gba agbo ẹran mi là, a kì yóò sì kò wọ́n tì mọ́. Èmi yóò ṣe ìdájọ́ láàrín àgùntàn kan àti òmíràn.
I will save my dock, and it shall be no more a spoil, and I will judge between cattle and cattle.
23 Èmi yóò fi Olùṣọ́-àgùntàn kan ṣe olórí wọn, ìránṣẹ́ mi Dafidi, òun yóò sì tọ́jú wọn; òun yóò bọ́ wọn yóò sì jẹ́ Olùṣọ́-àgùntàn wọn.
AND I WILL SET UP ONE SHEPHERD OVER THEM, and he shall feed them, even my servant David: he shall feed them, and he shall be their shepherd.
24 Èmi Olúwa yóò sì jẹ́ Ọlọ́run wọn, ìránṣẹ́ mi Dafidi yóò jẹ́ ọmọ-aládé láàrín wọn. Èmi Olúwa ní o sọ̀rọ̀.
And I the Lord will be their God: and my servant David the prince in the midst of them: I the Lord have spoken it.
25 “‘Èmi yóò dá májẹ̀mú àlàáfíà pẹ̀lú wọn, èmi yóò sì gba ilẹ̀ náà kúrò lọ́wọ́ ẹranko búburú, kí wọn kí o lè gbé ní aṣálẹ̀, kí àgùntàn sì gbé ní inú igbó ní àìléwu.
And I will make a covenant of peace with them, and will cause the evil beasts to cease out of the land: and they that dwell in the wilderness shall sleep secure in the forests.
26 Èmi yóò bùkún wọn àti ibi agbègbè ti ó yí òkè mi ká. Èmi yóò rán ọ̀wààrà òjò ni àkókò; òjò ìbùkún yóò sì wà.
And I will make them a blessing round about my hill: and I will send down the rain in its season, there shall be showers of blessing.
27 Àwọn igi igbó yóò mú èso wọn jáde, ilẹ̀ yóò sì mu irúgbìn jáde; A yóò sì dá ààbò bo àwọn ènìyàn ní ilẹ̀ náà. Wọn yóò mọ̀ pé èmi ni Olúwa, nígbà tí mo bá já àwọn ohun tí ó ṣe okùnfà àjàgà, tí mo sì gbà wọ́n kúrò lọ́wọ́ àwọn tí ó fi wọ́n ṣe ẹrú.
And the tree of the field shall yield its fruit, and the earth shall yield her increase, and they shall be in their land without fear: and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall have broken the bonds of their yoke, and shall have delivered them out of the hand of those that rule over them.
28 Àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè kì yóò lè kó wọn ní ẹrú mọ́, àwọn ẹranko búburú kì yóò lè pa wọn mọ́. Wọn yóò gbé ni àìléwu, kò sì ṣí ẹni kankan tí yóò le dẹ́rùbà wọ́n.
And they shall be no more for a spoil to the nations, neither shall the beasts of the earth devour them: but they shall dwell securely without any terror.
29 Èmi yóò pèsè ilẹ̀ ti o ní oríyìn fún èso rẹ̀ fún wọn, wọn kì yóò sì jìyà nípasẹ̀ ìyàn mọ́ ni ilẹ̀ náà tàbí ru ẹ̀gàn àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè.
And I will raise up for them a bud of renown: and they shall be no more consumed with famine in the land, neither shall they bear any more the reproach of the Gentiles.
30 Nígbà náà ni wọn yóò mọ̀ pé, èmi ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run wọn, èmi wà pẹ̀lú wọn àti pé, àwọn ilé Israẹli jẹ́ ènìyàn mi, ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí.
And they shall know that I the Lord their God am with them, and that they are my people the house of Israel: saith the Lord God.
31 Ìwọ àgùntàn mi, àgùntàn pápá mi; ni ènìyàn, èmi sì ni Ọlọ́run rẹ; ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí.’”
And you my flocks, the flocks of my pasture are men: and I am the Lord your God, saith the Lord God.
