¹The word of Yahweh came to me, saying,

¹A stalo sa slovo Hospodinovo ku mne povediac:

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?

²Synu človeka, prorokuj proti pastierom Izraelovým, prorokuj a povieš im, tým pastierom: Takto hovorí Pán Hospodin: Oj, beda pastierom Izraelovým, ktorí pasú sami seba! Či azda nemajú pastieri pásť stádo?

³You eat the fat, and you clothe yourself with the wool, you kill the fatlings; but you don’t feed the sheep.

³Tuk jete a vlnou sa odievate, vykŕmené zabíjate, stáda nepasiete.

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.

⁴Chorľavých zo stáda neposilňujete, nemocného neliečite, zlámaného neobväzujete a zaplašeného nenavracujete ani zahynulého nehľadáte, ale prísne panujete nad nimi a tvrde.

⁵They were scattered, because there was no shepherd; and they became food to all the animals of the field, and were scattered.

⁵A tak sú rozptýlené, nemajúce pastiera, a sú za pokrm všelijakej zveri poľnej a sú rozptýlené.

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.

⁶Blúdia, moje stádo, po všetkých vrchoch a na každom brehu vysokom, sú rozptýlení, moje stádo, po celej tvári zeme, a nie je nikoho, kto by sa po nich pýtal, ani nie je nikoho, kto by hľadal.

⁷Therefore, you shepherds, hear the word of Yahweh:

⁷Preto, pastieri, počujte slovo Hospodinovo:

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;

⁸Jako že ja žijem, hovorí Pán Hospodin, preto, že je moje stádo za lúpež, a že je moje stádo za žrádlo všelijakej zveri poľnej, preto, že nieto pastiera, a že moji pastieri sa nepýtajú po mojom stáde, ale že pastieri pasú sami seba a môjho stáda nepasú:

⁹therefore, you shepherds, hear the word of Yahweh:

⁹preto, pastieri, počujte slovo Hospodinovo:

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.

¹⁰Takto hovorí Pán Hospodin: Hľa, prijdem na pastierov a budem vyhľadávať svoje stádo z ich ruky a učiním koniec ich paseniu stáda, ani nebudú tí pastieri viacej pásť sami seba, ale vytrhnem svoje ovce z ich úst, aby im neboly za pokrm.

¹¹For thus says the Lord Yahweh: Behold, I myself, even I, will search for my sheep, and will seek them out.

¹¹Lebo takto hovorí Pán Hospodin: Hľa, ja sám prijdem a vyhľadám svoje ovce a pozriem sa na ne.

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.

¹²Ako pastier prehliada svoje stádo v deň, v ktorý je medzi svojimi rozprchlými ovcami, tak i ja budem prehliadať svoje ovce a vytrhnem ich zo všetkých miest, kde sú rozptýlení, v deň hustého oblaku a mrákavy.

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.

¹³A vyvediem ich z národov a shromaždím ich zo zemí a dovediem ich do ich zeme a budem ich pásť po vrchoch Izraelových, popri potokoch a na všetkých miestach zeme, súcich na bývanie.

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.

¹⁴Budem ich pásť na dobrej paši, a na vrchoch výšiny Izraelovej bude ich pastva; tam budú líhať odpočívajúc na dobrom pasienku a budú sa pásť na tučnej paši po vrchoch Izraelových.

¹⁵I myself will be the shepherd of my sheep, and I will cause them to lie down, says the Lord Yahweh.

¹⁵Ja budem pásť svoje ovce a ja spôsobím to, aby odpočívajúc líhaly v pokoji, hovorí Pán Hospodin.

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.

¹⁶Vyhľadám ztratené a navrátim zaplašené, obviažem polámané a nemocné posilním, ale tučné a silné zahladím; budem ho pásť v súde.

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 vy, moje stádo, takto hovorí Pán Hospodin: Hľa, budem súdiť medzi dobytčaťom a dobytčaťom, medzi baranmi a kozlami.

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?

¹⁸Či vám je to málo, že spášate dobrú pašu a ostatok svojej paše šliapete svojimi nohami? A či vám to málo, že pijete usadlú vodu čistú a ostatné kalíte svojimi nohami?

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 či sa majú moje ovce pásť na tom, čo ste vy pošliapali svojimi nohami, alebo tiež či majú piť to, čo ste vy zakalili svojimi nohami?

²⁰Therefore thus says the Lord Yahweh to them: Behold, I, even I, will judge between the fat sheep and the lean sheep.

²⁰Preto takto im hovorí Pán Hospodin: Hľa, ja sám prijdem a budem súdiť medzi tučným dobytčaťom a medzi chudým dobytčaťom.

²¹Because you thrust with side and with shoulder, and push all the diseased with your horns, until you have scattered them abroad;

²¹Pretože bokom i plecom strkáte a svojimi rohami koliete všetky chorľavé, dokiaľ ich len von nerozptýlite,

²²therefore will I save my flock, and they shall no more be a prey; and I will judge between sheep and sheep.

²²zachránim svoje stádo, aby nebolo viacej za lúpež, a budem súdiť medzi dobytčaťom a dobytčaťom.

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.

²³A postavím nad nimi jedného pastiera, a bude ich pásť, svojho služobníka Dávida, ten ich bude pásť a ten im bude pastierom.

²⁴I, Yahweh, will be their God, and my servant David prince among them; I, Yahweh, have spoken it.

²⁴A ja Hospodin im budem Bohom, a môj služobník Dávid bude kniežaťom prostred nich. Ja Hospodin som hovoril.

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.

²⁵A učiním s nimi smluvu pokoja a urobím koniec zlej zveri a odpracem ju zo zeme, a budú bývať i na púšti bezpečne a spávať po lesoch.

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.

²⁶Učiním ich ako aj okolie svojho brehu požehnaním, a dám to, aby padal dážď svojím časom; budú to dažde požehnania.

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.

²⁷A tak vydá strom na poli svoje ovocie, a zem vydá svoju úrodu, a budú bezpeční na svojej zemi a zvedia, že ja som Hospodin, keď polámem svory ich jarma a vytrhnem ich z ruky tých, ktorí robia na nich.

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.

²⁸Nebudú viacej za lúpež národom, ani ich nebude žrať zver zeme; ale budú bývať bezpečne, a nebude nikoho, kto by prestrašil.

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.

²⁹A vzbudím im sadenec slávneho mena, a nebudú viacej spratávaní hladom v zemi ani neponesú viacej potupy národov.

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.

³⁰A zvedia, že ja Hospodin, ich Bôh, som s nimi, a že oni sú môj ľud, dom Izraelov, hovorí Pán Hospodin.

³¹You my sheep, the sheep of my pasture, are men, and I am your God, says the Lord Yahweh.

³¹A vy, moje stádo, stádo mojej pastvy, ste ľudia; ja som váš Bôh, hovorí Pán Hospodin.
