Zechariah 11

Open thy doors, O Lebanon, that the fire may devour thy cedars.

Vohay ny varavaranao, ry Libanona ô! Handevonan'ny afo ny sederanao

Howl, fir tree; for the cedar is fallen; because the mighty are spoiled: howl, O ye oaks of Bashan; for the forest of the vintage is come down.

Midradradradra, ry hazo kypreso! Fa efa nianjera ny sedera, Eny, fongotra ireo avo be; Midradradradrà, ianareo ôka any Basana! Fa ripaka ny ala mikirindro

There is a voice of the howling of the shepherds; for their glory is spoiled: a voice of the roaring of young lions; for the pride of Jordan is spoiled.

Injay! fidradradradran'ny mpiandry ondry! Fa rava ny voninahiny; Injay! fieron'ny liona tanora! Fa rava ny kirihitrala eny amoron'i Jordana

Thus saith the LORD my God; Feed the flock of the slaughter;

Izao no lazain'i Jehovah Andriamanitra: Andraso ny ondry izay hovonoina,

Whose possessors slay them, and hold themselves not guilty: and they that sell them say, Blessed be the LORD; for I am rich: and their own shepherds pity them not.

dia ireo vonoin'ny tompony nefa tsy ananany heloka; ary ny mivarotra azy manao hoe: Isaorana anie Jehovah, fa manan-karena aho; ary ny mpiandry azy koa dia tsy miantra azy

For I will no more pity the inhabitants of the land, saith the LORD: but, lo, I will deliver the men every one into his neighbour's hand, and into the hand of his king: and they shall smite the land, and out of their hand I will not deliver them.

Fa tsy hiantra ny mponina amin'ny tany intsony Aho, hoy Jehovah; fa, indro, Izaho dia hanolotra ny olona samy ho eo an-tànan'ny namany sy samy ho eo an-tanan'ny mpanjakany avy; ary hamely ny tany ireo, nefa tsy mba hanafaka amin'ny tànany Aho.

And I will feed the flock of slaughter, even you, O 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 flock.

Ary niandry ny ondry izay hovonoina Aho, dia izay ondry mahantra. Ary naka tehina roa ho Ahy Aho, ny iray nataoko hoe Fahasoavana, ary ny iray kosa nataoko hoe Fikambanana; ary nandrasako ny ondry.

Three shepherds also I cut off in one month; and my soul lothed them, and their soul also abhorred me.

Ary nandringana ny mpiandry ondry telo Aho tamin'ny iray volana, fa tsy nahatsindry fo taminy intsony, sady tofoka Ahy ny fanahiny.

Then said I, I will not feed you: that that dieth, let it die; and that that is to be cut off, let it be cut off; and let the rest eat every one the flesh of another.

Dia hoy Izaho: Tsy hiandry anareo Aho: izay ho faty dia aoka ho faty, ary izay ho ringana dia aoka ho ringana, ary ny sisa dia aoka samy hihinana ny nofon'ny namany avy.

And I took my staff, even Beauty, and cut it asunder, that I might break my covenant which I had made with all the people.

Ary noraisiko ny tehiko Fahasoavana ka notapahiko, mba hanafoanako ny fanekena izay efa nataoko tamin'ny firenena rehetra.

And it was broken in that day: and so the poor of the flock that waited upon me knew that it was the word of the LORD.

Ary tapaka tamin'izany andro izany iny, ka dia fantatry ny ondry mahantra, izay nitandrina ny teniko, fa tenin'i Jehovah izany.

And I said unto them, If ye think good, give me my price; and if not, forbear. So they weighed for my price thirty pieces of silver.

Dia hoy izaho taminy: Raha tsara eo imasonareo, dia omeo ahy ny karamako; fa raha tsy izany, dia aoka ihany. Ary dia nolanjainy ny karamako, ka sekely volafotsy telo-polo.

And the LORD said unto me, Cast it unto the potter: a goodly price that I was prised at of them. And I took the thirty pieces of silver, and cast them to the potter in the house of the LORD.

Ary hoy Jehovah tamiko: Atsipazo amin'ny mpanefy tanimanga izany vola be nanombanany Ahy izany! Dia noraisiko ny sekely volafotsy telo-polo ka natsipiko tamin'ny mpanefy tanimanga tao an-tranon'i Jehovah.

Then I cut asunder mine other staff, even Bands, that I might break the brotherhood between Judah and Israel.

Dia notapahiko koa ilay tehiko anankiray Fikambanana, hanafoanako ny firahalahian'i Joda sy Isiraely.

And the LORD said unto me, Take unto thee yet the instruments of a foolish shepherd.

Ary hoy Jehovah tamiko: Alao ho anao koa ny tehin'ny mpiandry ondry adala.

For, lo, I will raise up a shepherd in the land, which shall not visit those that be cut off, neither shall seek the young one, nor heal that that is broken, nor feed that that standeth still: but he shall eat the flesh of the fat, and tear their claws in pieces.

Fa, indro, Izaho hanangana mpiandry amin'ny tany, izay tsy hamangy ny naringana, na hitady ny niely, na hanasitrana ny naratra, na hiandry izay mbola matanjaka; fa hohaniny ny nofon'ny matavy sady helakelahiny ny kitrony.

Woe to the 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.

Lozan'ny mpiandry ondry tsy mahomby izay mandao ny ondry! Ny sabatra no hanely ny sandriny sy ny masony ankavanana; halazo tokoa ny sandriny, ary ho jamba tokoa ny masony ankavanana.
