¹Open, O Lebanon, thy doors, And fire doth devour among thy cedars.

¹Ava oma uksed, Liibanon, et tuli saaks põletada su seedrid!

²Howl, 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,

²Ulu, küpress, sest seeder on langenud, võimsad on laastatud! Ulguge, Baasani tammed, sest läbipääsmatu mets on langetatud.

³A 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.

³Kuule! Karjaste hädakisa, sest nende kuulsus on hävitatud. Kuule! See on noorte lõvide möirgamine, sest Jordani padrik on laastatud.

⁴Thus said Jehovah my God: `Feed the flock of the slaughter,

⁴Nõnda ütleb Issand, mu Jumal: 'Karjata tapalambaid,

⁵Whose 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.

⁵keda nende ostjad tapavad, tundmata end süüdlastena, ja kelle müüjad ütlevad: 'Kiidetud olgu Issand, et ma olen saanud rikkaks!' - ja kellele nende karjased ei anna armu.

⁶For 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.`

⁶Sest mina ei anna enam armu maa elanikele, ütleb Issand. Vaata, ma lasen iga inimese sattuda tema karjase ja kuninga kätte ja need hävitavad maa, aga mina ei päästa kedagi nende käest.'

⁷And 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.

⁷Nõnda ma siis karjatasin tapalambaid lambakaupmeestele ja võtsin enesele kaks keppi: ühte ma nimetasin Lahkuseks ja teist ma nimetasin Ühenduseks; ja ma karjatasin lambaid.

⁸And I cut off the three shepherds in one month, and my soul is grieved with them, and also their soul hath abhorred me.

⁸Aga ma kõrvaldasin ühe kuu jooksul kolm karjast; siis tüdis mu hing neist ja minagi olin neile vastumeelt.

⁹And 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.`

⁹Ja ma ütlesin: 'Mina ei taha teid karjatada! Kes sureb, see surgu, kes hukkub, see hukkugu, ja järelejääjad söögu üksteise liha!'

¹⁰And I take My staff Pleasantness, and cut it asunder, to make void My covenant that I had made with all the peoples:

¹⁰Ja ma võtsin oma kepi Lahkuse ning murdsin selle katki, tühistades oma lepingu, mille ma olin teinud kõigi rahvastega.

¹¹and 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.

¹¹See tühistus selsamal päeval ja lambakaupmehed, kes panid mind tähele, mõistsid, et see oli Issanda sõna.

¹²And I say unto them: `If good in your eyes, give my hire, and if not, forbear;` and they weigh out my hire — thirty silverlings.

¹²Siis ma ütlesin neile: 'Kui see teie silmis hea on, siis andke mu palk; aga kui mitte, siis laske olla!' - ja nad vaagisid mu palga: kolmkümmend hõbeseeklit.

¹³And 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.

¹³Ja Issand ütles mulle: 'Viska see potissepale!' See suurepärane hind, millega nad mind olid hinnanud! Ja ma võtsin need kolmkümmend hõbeseeklit ja viskasin potissepale Issanda kojas.

¹⁴And I cut asunder my second staff, Bands, to break the unity between Judah and Israel.

¹⁴Siis ma murdsin katki oma teise kepi, Ühenduse, et tühistada vendlust Juuda ja Iisraeli vahel.

¹⁵And Jehovah saith unto me, `Again take to thee the instrument of a foolish shepherd.

¹⁵Siis ütles Issand mulle: 'Võta enesele veel kord meeletu karjase varustus!

¹⁶For 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.

¹⁶Sest vaata, ma lasen tõusta maale ühe karjase: ta ei tunne puudust hukkunust, ta ei otsi kadunut, ta ei ravi haavatut, ta ei hoolitse terve eest, aga ta sööb lihavate liha ja rebib ära nende sõrad.

¹⁷Wo [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!`

¹⁷Häda nurjatule karjasele, kes jätab lambad maha! Mõõk temale käsivarde ja paremasse silma! Ta käsivars kuivagu hoopis ja ta parem silm kustugu koguni!'
