1The word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
1I dođe mi riječ Jahvina:
2Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel, prophesy, and tell them, even to the shepherds, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: Woe to the shepherds of Israel who feed themselves! Shouldn’t the shepherds feed the sheep?
2"Sine čovječji, prorokuj protiv Izraelovih pastira, prorokuj im i reci: 'Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: Jao pastirima Izraelovim koji napasaju sami sebe! Ne moraju li pastiri napasati stado?
3You eat the fat, and you clothe yourself with the wool, you kill the fatlings; but you don’t feed the sheep.
3Mlijekom se hranite, vunom odijevate, ovnove tovne koljete, a stada ne pasete.
4You haven’t strengthened the diseased, neither have you healed that which was sick, neither have you bound up that which was broken, neither have you brought back that which was driven away, neither have you sought that which was lost; but with force and with rigor you have ruled over them.
4Nemoćnih ne krijepite, bolesnih ne liječite, ranjenih ne povijate, zalutalih natrag ne dovodite, izgubljenih ne tražite, nego nasilno i okrutno njima gospodarite.
5They were scattered, because there was no shepherd; and they became food to all the animals of the field, and were scattered.
5I tako se ovce raspršiše nemajuć' pastira, i raspršene postadoše plijen zvijerima.
6My sheep wandered through all the mountains, and on every high hill: yes, my sheep were scattered on all the surface of the earth; and there was none who searched or sought.
6Ovce lutaju po svim gorama i visokim bregovima; po svoj su zemlji raspršene ovce moje i nitko za njih ne pita, nikoga nema da ih traži.'
7Therefore, you shepherds, hear the word of Yahweh:
7Zato, pastiri, čujte riječ Jahvinu:
8As I live, says the Lord Yahweh, surely because my sheep became a prey, and my sheep became food to all the animals of the field, because there was no shepherd, neither did my shepherds search for my sheep, but the shepherds fed themselves, and didn’t feed my sheep;
8'Tako mi života, riječ je Jahve Gospoda: zato što ovce moje postadoše plijen i hrana zvijerima, nemajuć' pastira, dok pastiri moji ovaca mojih ne traže nego sami sebe pasu, a ne pasu stada mojega -
9therefore, you shepherds, hear the word of Yahweh:
9zato, pastiri, čujte riječ Jahvinu:
10Thus says the Lord Yahweh: Behold, I am against the shepherds; and I will require my sheep at their hand, and cause them to cease from feeding the sheep; neither shall the shepherds feed themselves any more; and I will deliver my sheep from their mouth, that they may not be food for them.
10Ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Evo me na pastire! Ovce svoje tražit ću iz ruku njihovih i neću im dati da mi više stado pasu ni da sami sebe pasu: istrgnut ću ovce iz usta njihovih, neće im više biti hrana.'
11For thus says the Lord Yahweh: Behold, I myself, even I, will search for my sheep, and will seek them out.
11Jer ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Evo me, sam ću potražiti ovce svoje i sam ću ih pasti!
12As a shepherd seeks out his flock in the day that he is among his sheep that are scattered abroad, so will I seek out my sheep; and I will deliver them out of all places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day.
12Kao što se pastir brine za ovce svoje kad se nađe uza stado raspršeno, i ja ću se pobrinuti za svoje ovce i skupit' ih iz svih mjesta u koje se raspršiše u dan oblaka i mraka.
13I will bring them out from the peoples, and gather them from the countries, and will bring them into their own land; and I will feed them on the mountains of Israel, by the watercourses, and in all the inhabited places of the country.
13Izvest ću ih iz naroda, skupit ću ih iz zemalja i dovesti ih u zemlju njihovu da ih pasem na gorama izraelskim, po svim dolinama i travnjacima.
14I will feed them with good pasture; and on the mountains of the height of Israel shall their fold be: there shall they lie down in a good fold; and on fat pasture shall they feed on the mountains of Israel.
14Past ću ih na izvrsnim pašama, ovčinjaci će im biti na visokim gorama izraelskim; ondje će počivati u dobrim ovčinjacima i past će na sočnim pašama, po gorama izraelskim.
15I myself will be the shepherd of my sheep, and I will cause them to lie down, says the Lord Yahweh.
15Sam ću pasti ovce svoje i sam ću im dati počinka - riječ je Jahve Gospoda.
16I will seek that which was lost, and will bring back that which was driven away, and will bind up that which was broken, and will strengthen that which was sick: but the fat and the strong I will destroy; I will feed them in justice.
16Potražit ću izgubljenu, dovesti natrag zalutalu, povit ću ranjenu i okrijepiti nemoćnu, bdjeti nad pretilom i jakom - past ću ih pravedno.'
17As for you, O my flock, thus says the Lord Yahweh: Behold, I judge between sheep and sheep, the rams and the male goats.
17A vama, ovce moje, ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Evo me da sudim između ovce i ovce, između ovnova i jaraca!
18Does it seem a small thing to you to have fed on the good pasture, but you must tread down with your feet the residue of your pasture? and to have drunk of the clear waters, but you must foul the residue with your feet?
18Zar vam je malo pasti na dobroj paši te ostatak paše nogama gazite? Malo vam je piti bistru vodu te ostatak nogama mutite?
19As for my sheep, they eat that which you have trodden with your feet, and they drink that which you have fouled with your feet.
19A moje ovce moraju pasti što vi nogama izgaziste, piti što vi nogama zamutiste.'
20Therefore thus says the Lord Yahweh to them: Behold, I, even I, will judge between the fat sheep and the lean sheep.
20Stoga ovako govori Jahve Gospod: 'Evo me da sudim između ovce pretile i mršave!
21Because you thrust with side and with shoulder, and push all the diseased with your horns, until you have scattered them abroad;
21Jer bokovima i plećima, bodući rogovima, slabe ovce guraste dok ih ne izguraste.
22therefore will I save my flock, and they shall no more be a prey; and I will judge between sheep and sheep.
22Ja ću izbaviti ovce svoje da više ne budu plijenom i sudit ću između ovce i ovce.
23I will set up one shepherd over them, and he shall feed them, even my servant David; he shall feed them, and he shall be their shepherd.
23Postavit ću im jednoga pastira koji će ih pasti, slugu svoga Davida: on će ih sam pasti i bit će im pastir,
24I, Yahweh, will be their God, and my servant David prince among them; I, Yahweh, have spoken it.
24a ja, Jahve, bit ću njihov Bog, i moj sluga David bit će im knez. Ja, Jahve, rekoh!
25I will make with them a covenant of peace, and will cause evil animals to cease out of the land; and they shall dwell securely in the wilderness, and sleep in the woods.
25I sklopit ću s njima Savez mira i uklonit ću iz zemlje sve divlje zvijeri, i živjet će mirno u pustinji i spavati po šumama.
26I will make them and the places around my hill a blessing; and I will cause the shower to come down in its season; there shall be showers of blessing.
26Njih i sve oko brda svojega učinit ću blagoslovom i dat ću im na vrijeme kišu, i bit će to kiša blagoslova.
27The tree of the field shall yield its fruit, and the earth shall yield its increase, and they shall be secure in their land; and they shall know that I am Yahweh, when I have broken the bars of their yoke, and have delivered them out of the hand of those who made slaves of them.
27I drveće će poljsko donositi plodove, a zemlja će dati rod svoj. I oni će mirno živjeti u svojoj zemlji i znat će da sam ja Jahve kad slomim palice jarma njihova i kad ih izbavim iz ruku onih što ih podjarmiše.
28They shall no more be a prey to the nations, neither shall the animals of the earth devour them; but they shall dwell securely, and none shall make them afraid.
28I neće više biti plijenom narodima, i zvijeri ih više neće žderati, nego će mirno živjeti i nitko ih neće plašiti.
29I will raise up to them a plantation for renown, and they shall be no more consumed with famine in the land, neither bear the shame of the nations any more.
29I učinit ću da im probuja slavni nasad, i glad ih više neće zatirati, u zemlji više neće podnositi rug narodÄa.
30They shall know that I, Yahweh, their God am with them, and that they, the house of Israel, are my people, says the Lord Yahweh.
30I znat će da sam ja, Jahve, Bog njihov, s njima i da su oni, dom Izraelov, narod moj - riječ je Jahve Gospoda.
31You my sheep, the sheep of my pasture, are men, and I am your God, says the Lord Yahweh.
31Vi, ovce moje, vi ste stado paše moje, a ja sam Bog vaš' - riječ je Jahve Gospoda."
