스가랴 11

1레바논아 네 문을 열고 불이 네 백향목을 사르게 하라 2너 잣나무여 곡할지어다 백향목이 넘어졌고 아름다운 나무가 훼멸되었도다 바산의 상수리나무여 곡할지어다 무성한 삼림이 엎드러졌도다 3목자의 곡하는 소리가 남이여 그 영화로운 것이 훼멸되었음이로다 어린 사자의 부르짖는 소리가 남이여 이는 요단의 자랑이 황무하였음이로다 4여호와 나의 하나님이 가라사대 너는 잡힐 양떼를 먹이라 5산 자들은 그들을 잡아도 죄가 없다 하고 판 자들은 말하기를 내가 부요케 되었은즉 여호와께 찬송하리라 하고 그 목자들은 그들을 불쌍히 여기지 아니하는도다 6여호와가 말하노라 내가 다시는 이 땅 거민을 불쌍히 여기지 아니하고 그 사람을 각각 그 이웃의 손과 임금의 손에 붙이리니 그들이 이 땅을 칠지라도 내가 그 손에서 건져내지 아니하리라 하시기로 7내가 이 잡힐 양떼를 먹이니 참으로 가련한 양이라 내가 이에 막대기 둘을 취하여 하나는 은총이라 하며 하나는 연락이라 하고 양떼를 먹일새 8한 달 동안에 내가 그 세 목자를 끊었으니 이는 내 마음에 그들을 싫어하였고 그들의 마음에도 나를 미워하였음이라 9내가 가로되 내가 너희를 먹이지 아니하고 죽는 자는 죽는 대로, 망할 자는 망할 대로, 그 나머지는 피차 살을 먹는 대로 두리라 하고 10이에 은총이라 하는 막대기를 취하여 잘랐으니 이는 모든 백성과 세운 언약을 폐하려 하였음이라 11당일에 곧 폐하매 내게 청종하던 가련한 양들은 이것이 여호와의 말씀이었던 줄 안지라 12내가 그들에게 이르되 너희가 좋게 여기거든 내 고가를 내게 주고 그렇지 아니하거든 말라 그들이 곧 은 삼십을 달아서 내 고가를 삼은지라 13여호와께서 내게 이르시되 그들이 나를 헤아린바 그 준가를 토기장이에게 던지라 하시기로 내가 곧 그 은 삼십을 여호와의 전에서 토기장이에게 던지고 14내가 또 연락이라 하는 둘째 막대기를 잘랐으니 이는 유다와 이스라엘 형제의 의를 끊으려 함이었느니라 15여호와께서 내게 이르시되 너는 또 우매한 목자의 기구들을 취할지니라 16보라 내가 한 목자를 이 땅에 일으키리니 그가 없어진 자를 마음에 두지 아니하며 흩어진 자를 찾지 아니하며 상한 자를 고치지 아니하며 강건한 자를 먹이지 아니하고 오히려 살진 자의 고기를 먹으며 또 그 굽을 찢으리라 17화 있을진저 양떼를 버린 못된 목자여 칼이 그 팔에, 우편 눈에 임하리니 그 팔이 아주 마르고 그 우편 눈이 아주 어두우리라

1Open your doors, Lebanon, that the fire may devour your cedars. 2Wail, fir tree, for the cedar has fallen, because the stately ones are destroyed. Wail, you oaks of Bashan, for the strong forest has come down. 3A voice of the wailing of the shepherds! For their glory is destroyed: a voice of the roaring of young lions! For the pride of the Jordan is ruined. 4Thus says Yahweh my God: “Feed the flock of slaughter. 5Their buyers slaughter them, and go unpunished. Those who sell them say, ‘Blessed be Yahweh, for I am rich;’ and their own shepherds don’t pity them. 6For I will no more pity the inhabitants of the land,” says Yahweh; “but, behold, I will deliver the men everyone into his neighbor’s hand, and into the hand of his king. They will strike the land, and out of their hand I will not deliver them.” 7So I fed the flock of slaughter, especially the oppressed of the flock. I took for myself two staffs. The one I called “Favor”, and the other I called “Union”, and I fed the flock. 8I cut off the three shepherds in one month; for my soul was weary of them, and their soul also loathed me. 9Then I said, “I will not feed you. That which dies, let it die; and that which is to be cut off, let it be cut off; and let those who are left eat each other’s flesh.” 10I took my staff Favor, and cut it apart, that I might break my covenant that I had made with all the peoples. 11It was broken in that day; and thus the poor of the flock that listened to me knew that it was Yahweh’s word. 12I said to them, “If you think it best, give me my wages; and if not, keep them.” So they weighed for my wages thirty pieces of silver. 13Yahweh said to me, “Throw it to the potter, the handsome price that I was valued at by them!” I took the thirty pieces of silver, and threw them to the potter, in Yahweh’s house. 14Then I cut apart my other staff, even Union, that I might break the brotherhood between Judah and Israel. 15Yahweh said to me, “Take for yourself yet again the equipment of a foolish shepherd. 16For, behold, I will raise up a shepherd in the land, who will not visit those who are cut off, neither will seek those who are scattered, nor heal that which is broken, nor feed that which is sound; but he will eat the flesh of the fat sheep, and will tear their hoofs in pieces. 17Woe to the worthless shepherd who leaves the flock! The sword will be on his arm, and on his right eye. His arm will be completely withered, and his right eye will be totally blinded!”

1Doe uw deuren open, o Libanon! opdat het vuur uw cederen vertere. 2Huilt, gij dennen! dewijl de cederen gevallen zijn, dewijl die heerlijke bomen verwoest zijn; huilt, gij eiken van Basan! dewijl het sterke woud nedergevallen is. 3Er is een stem des gehuils der herderen, dewijl hun heerlijkheid verwoest is; een stem des gebruls der jonge leeuwen, dewijl de hoogmoed van de Jordaan verwoest is. 4Alzo zegt de HEERE, mijn God: Weidt deze slachtschapen. 5Welker bezitters hen doden, en houden het voor geen schuld; en een ieder dergenen, die ze verkopen, zegt: Geloofd zij de HEERE, dat ik rijk geworden ben; en niemand van degenen, die ze weiden, verschoont ze. 6Zekerlijk, Ik zal niet meer de inwoners dezes lands verschonen, spreekt de HEERE; maar ziet, Ik zal de mensen overleveren, elkeen in de hand zijns naasten, en in de hand zijns konings, en zij zullen dit land te morzel slaan, en Ik zal ze uit hun hand niet verlossen. 7Dies heb ik deze slachtschapen geweid, dewijl zij ellendige schapen zijn; en ik heb mij genomen twee stokken, den een heb ik genoemd LIEFELIJKHEID, en den anderen heb ik genoemd SAMENBINDERS; en ik heb die schapen geweid. 8En ik heb drie herders in een maand afgesneden; want mijn ziel was over hen verdrietig geworden, en ook had hun ziel een walg van mij. 9En ik zeide: Ik zal ulieden niet meer weiden; wat sterft, dat sterve, en wat afgesneden is, dat zij afgesneden, en dat de overgeblevenen de een des anderen vlees verslinden. 10En ik nam mijn stok LIEFELIJKHEID, en ik verbrak denzelven, te niet doende mijn verbond, hetwelk ik met al deze volken gemaakt had. 11Dus werd het te dien dage vernietigd, en alzo hebben de ellendigen onder de schapen, die op mij wachtten, bekend, dat het des HEEREN woord was. 12Want ik had tot henlieden gezegd: Indien het goed is in uw ogen, brengt mijn loon, en zo niet, laat het na. En zij hebben mijn loon gewogen, dertig zilverlingen. 13Doch de HEERE zeide tot mij: Werp ze henen voor den pottenbakker: een heerlijken prijs, dien ik waard geacht ben geweest van hen! En ik nam die dertig zilverlingen, en wierp ze in het huis des HEEREN, voor den pottenbakker. 14Toen verbrak ik mijn tweeden stok, SAMENBINDERS, te niet doende de broederschap tussen Juda en tussen Israel. 15Verder zeide de HEERE tot mij: Neem u nog eens dwazen herders gereedschap. 16Want ziet, Ik zal een herder verwekken in dit land; dat gereed is om afgesneden te worden, zal hij niet bezoeken; het jonge zal hij niet zoeken, en het verbrokene zal hij niet helen, en het stilstaande zal hij niet dragen; maar het vlees van het vette zal hij eten, en derzelver klauwen zal hij verscheuren. 17Wee den nietigen herder, den verlater der kudde! Het zwaard zal over zijn arm zijn, en over zijn rechteroog; zijn arm zal ten enenmale verdorren, en zijn rechteroog zal ten enenmale donker worden.
