YLT
Young's Literal Translation
Open thy
doors
, O Lebanon, that
the
fire may
devour thy cedars.
Open, O Lebanon, thy
doors,
And
fire doth
devour among
thy cedars.
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 .
Howl, O
fir ,
for fallen hath
the cedar,
For
their
honourable
ones
were
destroyed,
Howl, ye oaks of Bashan ,
For come down hath
the
fenced
forest,
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
.
A voice of the howling of the shepherds !
For destroyed
was
their robe
of
honour,
A voice of the roaring of young lions !
For destroyed
was
the excellency
of Jordan.
Thus saith
the
LORD
my God ;
Feed the flock of the slaughter ;
Thus said
Jehovah
my God :
`
Feed the flock of the slaughter ,
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
.
Whose buyers
slay them, and are
not guilty ,
And their
sellers
say, Blessed `is'
Jehovah,
And
I am rich ,
And their shepherds have
no
pity on
them.
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
.
For I have
pity
no more on
inhabitants of the land, An
affirmation
of
Jehovah
, And
lo, I am
causing
man
to
come
forth,
Each
into the
hand of
his
neighbour
, And into the hand of his king ,
And they have
beaten
down
the land, And I
do
not
deliver
out of their hand. '
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.
And I feed the flock of slaughter, even you, ye
afflicted
of the flock ;
and I take
to
me two staves ,
the one I have
called Pleasantness
, and the other I have
called Bands ,
and I feed
the flock.
Three
shepherds
also
I cut off in one month ;
and my soul lothed
them, and their soul also
abhorred me.
And
I cut off the
three
shepherds
in one month ,
and my soul is
grieved
with
them, and also
their soul hath
abhorred me.
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
.
And
I say
, `
I do
not feed you, the
dying,
let die; and the
cut off, let be cut off; and the remaining
ones,
let
each
eat the flesh of its
neighbour
. '
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.
And I take
My staff Pleasantness
, and cut it asunder, to
make
void
My covenant that
I had made with all the peoples:
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
.
and it is
broken in that day ,
and know
well
do
the afflicted
of the flock who
are
observing
me ,
that it `is'
a
word of Jehovah
.
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
.
And I say
unto them :
`
If good in
your
eyes
, give my hire,
and if not, forbear ;'
and
they weigh
out
my hire
--
thirty silverlings
.
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
.
And Jehovah
saith
unto me, `
Cast it unto the potter ;'
the
goodly price that I have
been
prized
at by
them ,
and I take
the thirty silverlings
, and cast them `
to '
the house of Jehovah,
unto
the potter
.
Then
I cut asunder mine
other
staff, even
Bands, that
I
might
break the brotherhood
between Judah and Israel.
And
I cut asunder my
second
staff, Bands, to
break the unity
between Judah and Israel.
And the
LORD
said
unto me, Take unto
thee yet
the instruments
of a foolish shepherd.
And Jehovah
saith
unto me, `Again
take to
thee the instrument
of a foolish shepherd.
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
.
For lo, I am
raising
up a shepherd in the land, The
cut off he
doth
not
inspect
, The shaken
off
he
doth
not
seek
, And
the
broken he
doth
not
heal
, The
standing
he doth
not
sustain,
And
the flesh of the fat he
doth
eat
, And their hoofs
he
doth
break
off
.
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.
Wo
`
to '
the worthless
shepherd ,
forsaking
the flock ,
A
sword `is'
on
his arm, and on
his right eye ,
His arm is
utterly
dried up, And his right eye is
very
dim!'
