| [1]OpenH6605[H8798] thy doorsH1817, O LebanonH3844, that the fireH784 may devourH398[H8799] thy cedarsH730. |
[1]Open thy doors, O Lebanon, and the fire shall devour thy cedars. |
| [2]HowlH3213[H8685], fir treeH1265; for the cedarH730 is fallenH5307[H8804]; because the mightyH117 are spoiledH7703[H8795]: howlH3213[H8685], O ye oaksH437 of BashanH1316; for the forestH3293 of the vintageH1208[H8675][H1219][H8803] is come downH3381.[H8804] |
[2]Howl, fir trees: for the cedar is fallen, because all the mighty are destroyed: howl ye, O oaks of Bashan, for the defensed forest is cut down. |
| [3]There is a voiceH6963 of the howlingH3215 of the shepherdsH7462[H8802]; for their gloryH155 is spoiledH7703[H8795]: a voiceH6963 of the roaringH7581 of young lionsH3715; for the prideH1347 of JordanH3383 is spoiledH7703.[H8795] |
[3]There is the voice of the howling of the shepherds: for their glory is destroyed: the voice of the roaring of lion's whelps: for the pride of Jordan is destroyed. |
| [4]Thus saithH559[H8804] the LORDH3068 my GodH430; FeedH7462[H8798] the flockH6629 of the slaughterH2028; |
[4]Thus saith the Lord my God, Feed the sheep of the slaughter. |
| [5]Whose possessorsH7069[H8802] slayH2026[H8799] them, and hold themselves not guiltyH816[H8799]: and they that sellH4376[H8802] them sayH559[H8799], BlessedH1288[H8803] be the LORDH3068; for I am richH6238[H8686]: and their own shepherdsH7462[H8802] pityH2550 them notH8799. |
[5]They that possess them, slay them and sin not: and they that sell them, say, Blessed be the Lord: for I am rich, and their own shepherds spare them not. |
| [6]For I will no more pityH2550[H8799] the inhabitantsH3427[H8802] of the landH776, saithH5002[H8803] the LORDH3068: but, lo, I will deliverH4672[H8688] the menH120 every oneH376 into his neighbour'sH7453 handH3027, and into the handH3027 of his kingH4428: and they shall smiteH3807[H8765] the landH776, and out of their handH3027 I will not deliverH5337 themH8686. |
[6]Surely I will no more spare those that dwell in the land, saith the Lord: but lo, I will deliver the men everyone into his neighbor's hand, and into the hand of his king: and they shall smite the land, and out of their hands I will not deliver them. |
| [7]And I will feedH7462[H8799] the flockH6629 of slaughterH2028, even youH3651, O poorH6041 of the flockH6629. And I tookH3947[H8799] unto me twoH8147 stavesH4731; the oneH259 I calledH7121[H8804] BeautyH5278, and the otherH259 I calledH7121[H8804] BandsH2254[H8802]; and I fedH7462[H8799] the flockH6629. |
[7]For I fed the sheep of slaughter, even the poor of the flock, and I took unto me two staves: the one I called Beauty, and the other I called Bands, and I fed the sheep. |
| [8]ThreeH7969 shepherdsH7462[H8802] also I cut offH3582[H8686] in oneH259 monthH3391; and my soulH5315 lothedH7114[H8799] them, and their soulH5315 also abhorredH973 meH8804. |
[8]Three shepherds also I cut off in one month, and my soul loathed them, and their soul abhorred me. |
| [9]Then saidH559[H8799] I, I will not feedH7462[H8799] you: that that diethH4191[H8801], let it dieH4191[H8799]; and that that is to be cut offH3582[H8737], let it be cut offH3582[H8735]; and let the restH7604[H8737] eatH398[H8799] every oneH802 the fleshH1320 of anotherH7468. |
[9]Then said I, I will not feed you: that that dieth, let it die: and that that perisheth, let it perish: and let the remnant eat, every one the flesh of his neighbor. |
| [10]And I tookH3947[H8799] my staffH4731, even BeautyH5278, and cut it asunderH1438[H8799], that I might breakH6565[H8687] my covenantH1285 which I had madeH3772[H8804] with all the peopleH5971. |
[10]And I took my staff , even Beauty, and break it, that I might disannul my covenant, which I had made with all people. |
| [11]And it was brokenH6565[H8714] in that dayH3117: and so the poorH6041 of the flockH6629 that waitedH8104[H8802] upon me knewH3045[H8799] that it was the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068. |
[11]And it was broken in that day: and so the poor of the sheep that waited upon me, knew that it was the word of the Lord. |
| [12]And I saidH559[H8799] unto them, If ye thinkH5869 goodH2896, giveH3051[H8798] me my priceH7939; and if not, forbearH2308[H8798]. So they weighedH8254[H8799] for my priceH7939 thirtyH7970 pieces of silverH3701. |
[12]And I said unto them, If ye think it good, give me my wages: and if no, leave off: so they weighed for my wages thirty pieces of silver. |
| [13]And the LORDH3068 saidH559[H8799] unto me, CastH7993[H8685] it unto the potterH3335[H8802]: a goodlyH145 priceH3366 that I was prised atH3365[H8804] of them. And I tookH3947[H8799] the thirtyH7970 pieces of silverH3701, and castH7993[H8686] them to the potterH3335[H8802] in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068. |
[13]And the Lord said unto me, Cast it unto the potter: a goodly price, that I was valued at of them. And I took the thirty pieces of silver, and cast them to the potter in the house of the Lord. |
| [14]Then I cut asunderH1438[H8799] mine otherH8145 staffH4731, even BandsH2254[H8802], that I might breakH6565[H8687] the brotherhoodH264 between JudahH3063 and IsraelH3478. |
[14]Then break I mine other staff, even the Bands, that I might dissolve the brotherhood between Judah and Israel. |
| [15]And the LORDH3068 saidH559[H8799] unto me, TakeH3947[H8798] unto thee yet the instrumentsH3627 of a foolishH196 shepherdH7462.[H8802] |
[15]And the Lord said unto me, Take to thee yet the instruments of a foolish shepherd. |
| [16]For, lo, I will raise upH6965[H8688] a shepherdH7462[H8802] in the landH776, which shall not visitH6485[H8799] those that be cut offH3582[H8737], neither shall seekH1245[H8762] the young oneH5289, nor healH7495[H8762] that that is brokenH7665[H8737], nor feedH3557[H8770] that that standethH5324[H8737] still: but he shall eatH398[H8799] the fleshH1320 of the fatH1277, and tearH6561 their clawsH6541 in piecesH6561.[H8762] |
[16]For lo, I will raise up a shepherd in the land, which shall not look for the thing that is lost, nor seek the tender lambs, nor heal that that is hurt, nor feed that that standeth up: but he shall eat the flesh of the fat, and tear their claws in pieces. |
| [17]WoeH1945 to the idolH457 shepherdH7473 that leavethH5800[H8802] the flockH6629! the swordH2719 shall be upon his armH2220, and upon his rightH3225 eyeH5869: his armH2220 shall be cleanH3001[H8800] dried upH3001[H8799], and his rightH3225 eyeH5869 shall be utterlyH3543[H8800] darkenedH3543.[H8799] |
[17]O idol shepherd that leaveth the flock: the sword shall be upon his arm, and upon his right eye. His arm shall be clean dried up, and his right eye shall be utterly darkened. |
