  34:1 ¶
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying, |
|
34:1 ¶
And the wordº
of Yahwehº
cameº
untoº
me, saying,ºº |
|
34:2
Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel, prophesy, and say to the shepherds, Thus saith the Lord God; O shepherds of Israel, do shepherds feed themselves? do not the shepherds feed the sheep? |
34:2
Sonº
of man,º
prophesyºº
againstº
the shepherdsºº
of Israel,º
prophesy,ºº
and sayºº
untoº
them, Thusº
saithºº
Adonaiº
Yahwehº
unto the shepherds;ºº
Woeº
[be] to the shepherdsºº
of Israelº
thatº
do feedººº
themselves! should notº
the shepherdsºº
feedºº
the flocks?º |
|
34:3
Behold, ye feed on the milk, and clothe yourselves with the wool, and slay the fat: but ye feed not my sheep. |
34:3
Ye eatººº
the fat,º
and ye clotheºº
you withº
the wool,º
ye killºº
them that are fed:º
[but] ye feedºº
notº
the flock.º |
|
34:4
The weak one ye have not strengthened, and the sick ye have not cherished, and the bruised ye have not bound up, and the stray one ye have not turned back, and the lost ye have not sought; and the strong ye have wearied with labour. |
34:4
º
The diseasedºº
have ye notº
strengthened,ºº
neitherº
have ye healedºº
that which was sick,ºº
neitherº
have ye bound upºº
[that which was] broken,ºº
neitherº
have ye brought againºº
that which was driven away,ºº
neitherº
have ye soughtºº
that which was lost;ºº
but with forceº
and with crueltyº
have ye ruledºº
them. |
|
34:5
And my sheep were scattered, because there were no shepherds: and they became meat to all the wild beasts of the field. |
34:5
And they were scattered,ºº
because [there is] noºº
shepherd:ºº
and they becameº
meatº
to allº
the beastsº
of the field,º
when they were scattered.ºº |
|
34:6
And my sheep were scattered on every mountain, and on every high hill: yea, they were scattered on the face of the earth, and there was none to seek them out, nor to bring them back. |
34:6
My sheepº
wanderedºº
through allº
the mountains,º
and uponº
everyº
highºº
hill:º
yea, my flockº
was scatteredºº
uponº
allº
the faceº
of the earth,º
and noneº
did searchºº
or seekºº
[after them]. |
|
34:7 ¶
Therefore, ye shepherds, hear the word of the Lord. |
34:7 ¶
Therefore,º
ye shepherds,ºº
hearººº
the wordº
of Yahweh;º |
|
34:8
[As] I live, saith 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. |
34:8
[As] Iº
live,º
saithºº
Adonaiº
Yahweh,º
surelyºº
becauseº
my flockº
becameº
a prey,º
and my flockº
becameº
meatº
to everyº
beastº
of the field,º
because [there was] noºº
shepherd,ºº
neitherº
did my shepherdsºº
searchººº
for my flock,º
but the shepherdsºº
fedºº
themselves, and fedºº
notº
my flock;º |
|
34:9
For this cause, O shepherds, |
34:9
Therefore,º
O ye shepherds,ºº
hearºº
the wordº
of Yahweh;º |
|
34:10
thus saith 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. |
34:10
Thusº
saithºº
Adonaiº
Yahweh;º
Behold,º
I [am] againstº
the shepherds;ºº
and I will requireººº
my flockº
at their hand,ºº
and cause them to ceaseºº
from feedingººº
the flock;º
neitherº
shall the shepherdsºº
feedºº
themselves any more;º
for I will deliverºº
my flockº
from their mouth,ºº
that they may notº
beº
meatº
for them. |
|
34:11 ¶
For thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I will seek out my sheep, and will visit them. |
34:11 ¶
Forº
thusº
saithºº
Adonaiº
Yahweh;º
Behold,º
I, [even] I,º
will both searchººº
my sheep,º
and seek them out.ºº |
|
34:12
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. |
34:12
As a shepherdºº
seeketh outº
his flockº
in the dayº
that he isº
amongº
his sheepº
[that are] scattered;ººº
soº
will I seek outººº
my sheep,º
and will deliverºº
them out of allºº
placesº
whereºº
they have been scatteredºº
in the cloudyº
and darkº
day.º |
|
34:13
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. |
34:13
And I will bring them outºº
fromº
the people,º
and gatherºº
them fromº
the countries,º
and will bringºº
them toº
their own land,º
and feedºº
them uponº
the mountainsº
of Israelº
by the rivers,º
and in allº
the inhabited placesº
of the country.º |
|
34:14
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. |
34:14
I will feedºº
them in a goodº
pasture,º
and upon the highº
mountainsº
of Israelº
shall their foldº
be:º
thereº
shall they lieºº
in a goodº
fold,º
and [in] a fatº
pastureº
shall they feedºº
uponº
the mountainsº
of Israel.º |
|
34:15
I will feed my sheep, and I will cause them to rest; and they shall know that I am the Lord: thus saith the Lord God. |
34:15
Iº
will feedºº
my flock,º
and Iº
will cause them to lie down,ºº
saithºº
Adonaiº
Yahweh.º |
|
34:16
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. |
34:16
I will seekººº
that which was lost,ºº
and bring againºº
that which was driven away,ºº
and will bind upºº
[that which was] broken,ºº
and will strengthenºº
that which was sick:ºº
but I will destroyºº
the fatº
and the strong;º
I will feedºº
them with judgment.º |
|
34:17
And [as for] you, ye sheep, thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I will distinguish between sheep and sheep, [between] rams and he-goats. |
34:17
And [as for] you,º
O my flock,º
thusº
saithºº
Adonaiº
Yahweh;º
Behold,º
I judgeºº
betweenº
cattleº
and cattle,º
between the ramsº
and the he goats.º |
|
34:18
And [is it] not enough for you that ye fed on the good pasture, that ye trampled with your feet the remnant of your pasture? and [that] ye drank the standing water, [that] ye disturbed the residue with your feet? |
34:18
[Seemeth it] a small thingº
untoº
you to have eaten upºº
the goodº
pasture,º
but ye must tread downºº
with your feetº
the residueº
of your pastures?º
and to have drunkºº
of the deepº
waters,º
but ye must foulºº
the residueºº
with your feet?º |
|
34:19
So my sheep fed on that which ye had trampled with your feet; and they drank the water that had been disturbed by your feet. |
34:19
And [as for] my flock,º
they eatºº
that which ye have troddenº
with your feet;º
and they drinkºº
that which ye have fouledº
with your feet.º |
|
34:20 ¶
Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I will separate between the strong sheep and the weak sheep. |
34:20 ¶
Thereforeº
thusº
saithºº
Adonaiº
Yahwehº
untoº
them; Behold,º
I,º
[even] I, will judgeºº
betweenº
the fatºº
cattleº
and betweenº
the leanº
cattle.º |
|
34:21
Ye did thrust with your sides and shoulders, and pushed with your horns, and ye cruelly treated all the sick. |
34:21
Becauseº
ye have thrustºº
with sideº
and with shoulder,º
and pushedºº
allº
the diseasedºº
with your horns,º
tillºº
ye have scatteredºº
them abroad;ºº |
|
34:22
Therefore I will save my sheep, and they shall not be any more for a prey; and will judge between ram and ram. |
34:22
Therefore will I saveºº
my flock,º
and they shall noº
moreº
beº
a prey;º
and I will judgeºº
betweenº
cattleº
and cattle.º |
|
34:23
And I will raise up one shepherd over them, and he shall tend them, [even] my servant David, and he shall be their shepherd; |
34:23
And I will set upºº
oneº
shepherdºº
overº
them, and he shall feedºº
them, [even]º
my servantº
David;º
he shall feedºº
them, and heº
shall beº
their shepherd.ºº |
|
34:24
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. |
34:24
And Iº
Yahwehº
will beº
their Elohim,º
and my servantº
Davidº
a princeº
amongº
them; Iº
Yahwehº
have spokenºº
[it]. |
|
34:25
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. |
34:25
And I will makeºº
with them a covenantº
of peace,º
and will cause the evilº
beastsº
to ceaseºº
out ofº
the land:º
and they shall dwellºº
safelyº
in the wilderness,º
and sleepºº
in the woods.ººº |
|
34:26
And I will settle them round about my mountain; and I will give you the rain, the rain of blessing. |
34:26
And I will makeºº
them and the places round aboutº
my hillº
a blessing;º
and I will cause the showerº
to come downºº
in his season;º
there shall beº
showersº
of blessing.º |
|
34:27
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. |
34:27
And the treeº
of the fieldº
shall yieldººº
her fruit,º
and the earthº
shall yieldºº
her increase,º
and they shall beº
safeº
inº
their land,º
and shall knowºº
thatº
Iº
[am] Yahweh,º
when I have brokenººº
the bandsº
of their yoke,º
and deliveredºº
them out of the handºº
of those that servedºº
themselves of them. |
|
34:28
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. |
34:28
And they shall noº
moreº
beº
a preyº
to the heathen,º
neitherº
shall the beastº
of the landº
devourºº
them; but they shall dwellºº
safely,º
and noneº
shall make [them] afraid.ºº |
|
34:29
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 off the nations. |
34:29
And I will raise upºº
for them a plantº
of renown,º
and they shall beº
noº
moreº
consumedºº
with hungerº
in the land,º
neitherº
bearºº
the shameº
of the heathenº
any more.º |
|
34:30
And they shall know that I am the Lord their God, and they my people. O house of Israel, saith the Lord God, |
34:30
Thus shall they knowºº
thatº
Iº
Yahwehº
their Elohimº
[am] withº
them, and [that] they,º
[even] the houseº
of Israel,º
[are] my people,º
saithºº
Adonaiº
Yahweh.º |
|
34:31
ye are my sheep, even the sheep of my flock, and I am the Lord your God, saith the Lord God. |
34:31
And yeº
my flock,º
the flockº
of my pasture,º
[are] men,º
[and] Iº
[am] your Elohim,º
saithºº
Adonaiº
Yahweh.º |
