Ezekiel 34

1 Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ́ mi wá:

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 against the shepherds of Israel, prophesy, and say to the shepherds, Thus says the Lord God; O shepherds of Israel, do shepherds feed themselves? do not the shepherds feed the sheep?

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.

Behold, you feed on the milk, and clothe yourselves with the wool, and kill the fat: but you feed not my sheep.

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 one you have not strengthened, and the sick you have not cherished, and the bruised you have not bound up, and the stray one you have not turned back, and the lost you have not sought; and the strong you have wearied with labor.

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 were no shepherds: and they became meat to all the wild beasts of the field.

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.

And my sheep were scattered on every mountain, and on every high hill: yes, they were scattered on the face of the earth, and there was none to seek them out, nor to bring them back.

7 “‘Nítorí náà, ìwọ olùṣọ́-àgùntàn, gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa.

Therefore, you 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, says the Lord God, surely because my sheep became a prey, and my sheep became meat to all the wild beasts of the field, because there were no shepherds, and the shepherds sought not out my sheep, and the shepherds fed themselves, but fed not my sheep.

9 nítorí náà, ẹ̀yin olùṣọ́-àgùntàn, gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa.

For this cause, O shepherds,

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 says the Lord God, Behold, I am against the shepherds; and I will require my sheep at their hands, and will turn them back that they shall not feed my sheep, and the shepherds shall no longer feed them; and I will deliver my sheep out of their mouth, and they shall no longer 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 says the Lord God, Behold, I will seek out 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 seeks his flock, in the day when there is darkness and cloud, in the midst of the sheep that are separated: so will I seek out my sheep, and will bring them back from every place where they were scattered in the day of cloud and darkness.

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 Gentiles, and will gather them from the countries, and will bring them into their own land, and will feed them upon the mountains of Israel, and in the valleys, and in every inhabited place 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 a good pasture, on a high mountain of Israel: and their folds shall be there, and they shall lie down, and there shall they rest in perfect prosperity, and they shall feed in a fat pasture on 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 rest; and they shall know that I am the Lord: thus says 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 is lost, and I will recover the stray one, and will bind up that which was broken, and will strengthen the fainting, and will guard the strong, and will feed them with 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, you sheep, thus says the Lord God, Behold, I will distinguish between sheep and sheep, [between] rams and 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?

And [is it] not enough for you that you fed on the good pasture, that you trampled with your feet the remnant of your pasture? and [that] you drank the standing water, [that] you disturbed the residue 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?

So my sheep fed on that which you had trampled with your feet; and they drank the water that had been disturbed by your feet.

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 says the Lord God; Behold, I will separate between the strong sheep and the weak sheep.

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,

You did thrust with your sides and shoulders, and pushed with your horns, and you cruelly treated all the sick.

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.

Therefore I will save my sheep, and they shall not be any more for a prey; and will judge between ram and ram.

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 raise up one shepherd over them, and he shall tend them, [even] my servant David, 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 to them a God, and David a 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 with David a covenant of peace and I will utterly destroy evil beasts from off the land; and they shall dwell in the wilderness, and sleep 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 settle them round about my mountain; and I will give you the rain, the rain 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 trees that are in the field shall yield their fruit, and the earth shall yield her strength, and they shall dwell in the confidence of peace on their land, and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I have broken their yoke; and I will deliver them out of the hand of those that enslaved 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 no more be a spoil to the nations, and the wild beasts of the land shall no more at all devour them; and they shall dwell safely, and there shall be none to make them afraid.

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 plant of peace, and they shall no more perish with hunger upon the land, and they shall no more bear the reproach of the nations.

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 am the Lord their God, and they my people. O house of Israel, says the Lord God,

31 Ìwọ àgùntàn mi, àgùntàn pápá mi; ni ènìyàn, èmi sì ni Ọlọ́run rẹ; ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí.’”

you are my sheep, even the sheep of my flock, and I am the Lord your God, says the Lord God.
