Ezekiel 34
1 And the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
E veiu a mim a palavra do Senhor, dizendo:
2 Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel, prophesy, and say to them, Thus saith the Lord GOD to the shepherds; Woe [be] to the shepherds of Israel that do feed themselves! should not the shepherds feed the flocks?
Filho do homem, prophetiza contra os pastores de Israel; prophetiza, e dize aos pastores: Assim diz o Senhor Jehovah: Ai dos pastores de Israel que se apascentam a si mesmos! porventura os pastores não apascentarão as ovelhas?
3 Ye eat the fat, and ye clothe yourselves with the wool, ye kill them that are fed: [but] ye feed not the flock.
Comeis o gordo, e vos vestis de lã; degolaes o cevado; porém não apascentaes as ovelhas.
4 The diseased ye have not strengthened, neither have ye healed that which was sick, neither have ye bound up [that which was] broken, neither have ye brought again that which was driven away, neither have ye sought that which was lost; but with force and with cruelty have ye ruled them.
As fracas não fortalecestes, e a doente não curastes, e a quebrada não ligastes, e a desgarrada não tornastes a trazer, e a perdida não buscastes: porém dominaes sobre ellas com rigor e dureza.
5 And they were scattered, because [there is] no shepherd: and they became food to all the beasts of the field, when they were scattered.
Assim se espalharam, por não haver pastor, e ficaram para pasto de toda a besta do campo, porquanto se espalharam.
6 My sheep wandered through all the mountains, and upon every high hill: yes, my flock was scattered upon all the face of the earth, and none did search or seek [for them].
As minhas ovelhas andam desgarradas por todos os montes, e por todo o alto outeiro; e as minhas ovelhas andam espalhadas por toda a face da terra, sem haver quem pergunte por ellas, sem haver quem as busque.
7 Therefore, ye shepherds, hear the word of the LORD;
Portanto, ó pastores, ouvi a palavra do Senhor:
8 [As] I live, saith the Lord GOD, surely because my flock became a prey, and my flock became food to every beast of the field, because [there was] no shepherd, neither did my shepherds search for my flock, but the shepherds fed themselves, and fed not my flock;
Vivo eu, diz o Senhor Jehovah, que, porquanto as minhas ovelhas foram entregues á rapina, e as minhas ovelhas vieram a servir de pasto a toda a besta do campo, á falta de pastor, e os meus pastores não perguntam pelas minhas ovelhas, e os pastores se apascentam a si mesmos, e não apascentam as minhas ovelhas;
9 Therefore, O ye shepherds, hear the word of the LORD;
Portanto, ó pastores, ouvi a palavra do Senhor:
10 Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I [am] against the shepherds; and I will require my flock at their hand, and cause them to cease from feeding the flock; neither shall the shepherds feed themselves any more; for I will deliver my flock from their mouth, that they may not be food for them.
Assim diz o Senhor Jehovah: Eis que eu estou contra os pastores, e demandarei as minhas ovelhas da sua mão, e os farei cessar de apascentar as ovelhas, e os pastores não se apascentarão mais a si mesmos; e livrarei as minhas ovelhas da sua bocca, e lhes não servirão mais de pasto.
11 For thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I [even] I, will both search for my sheep, and seek them out.
Porque assim diz o Senhor Jehovah: Eis que eu, eu digo, perguntarei pelas minhas ovelhas, e as buscarei.
12 As a shepherd seeketh out his flock in the day that he is among his sheep [that are] scattered; so will I seek out my sheep, and will deliver them out of all places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day.
Como o pastor busca o seu rebanho, no dia em que está no meio das suas ovelhas dispersas, assim buscarei as minhas ovelhas; e as farei escapar de todos os logares por onde andam espalhadas, no dia da nuvem e da escuridão.
13 And I will bring them out from the people, and gather them from the countries, and will bring them to their own land, and feed them upon the mountains of Israel by the rivers, and in all the inhabited places of the country.
E as tirarei dos povos, e as congregarei das terras, e as trarei á sua terra, e as apascentarei nos montes de Israel, junto ás correntes, e em todas as habitações da terra.
14 I will feed them in a good pasture, and upon the high mountains of Israel shall their fold be: there shall they lie in a good fold, and [in] a fat pasture shall they feed upon the mountains of Israel.
Em bons pastos as apascentarei, e nos altos montes de Israel será a sua malhada; ali se deitarão n'uma boa malhada, e pastarão em pastos gordos nos montes de Israel.
15 I will feed my flock, and I will cause them to lie down, saith the Lord GOD.
Eu apascentarei as minhas ovelhas, e eu as farei repousar, diz o Senhor Jehovah.
16 I will seek that which was lost, and bring again that which was driven away, and will bind up [that which was] broken, and will strengthen that which was sick: but I will destroy the fat and the strong; I will feed them with judgment.
A perdida buscarei, e a desgarrada tornarei a trazer, e a quebrada atarei, e a enferma fortalecerei; mas a gorda e a forte destruirei; apascental-as-hei com juizo.
17 And [as for] you, O my flock, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I judge between cattle and cattle, between the rams and the he-goats.
E quanto a vós, ó ovelhas minhas, assim diz o Senhor Jehovah: Eis que eu julgarei entre gado pequeno e gado pequeno, entre carneiros e bodes.
18 [Seemeth it] a small thing to you to have eaten up the good pasture, but ye must tread down with your feet the residue of your pastures? and to have drank of the deep waters, but ye must foul the residue with your feet?
Acaso não vos basta que pasteis o bom pasto, senão que pizeis o resto de vossos pastos a vossos pés? e que bebaes as profundas aguas, senão que enlameeis o resto com os vossos pés
19 And [as for] my flock, they eat that which ye have trodden with your feet; and they drink that which ye have fouled with your feet.
E as minhas ovelhas pastarão o que foi pizado com os vossos pés, e beberão o que tem sido turvado com os vossos pés.
20 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD to them; Behold, I, even I, will judge between the fat cattle and between the lean cattle.
Por isso o Senhor Jehovah assim lhes diz: Eis que eu, sim, eu, julgarei entre o gado gordo e o gado magro.
21 Because ye have thrust with side and with shoulder, and pushed all the diseased with your horns, till ye have scattered them abroad;
Porquanto com o lado e com o hombro daes empurrões, e com as vossas pontas escorneaes todas as fracas, até que as espalhaes para fóra,
22 Therefore will I save my flock, and they shall no more be a prey; and I will judge between cattle and cattle.
Portanto livrarei as minhas ovelhas, para que não sirvam mais de rapina, e julgarei entre gado miudo e gado miudo.
23 And I 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.
E levantarei sobre ellas um só pastor, e elle as apascentará: meu servo David, este as apascentará, e este lhes servirá de pastor.
24 And I the LORD will be their God, and my servant David a prince among them; I the LORD have spoken [it].
E eu, o Senhor, lhes serei por Deus, e o meu servo David será principe no meio d'elles: eu, o Senhor, o fallei.
25 And I will make with them a covenant of peace, and will cause the evil beasts to cease out of the land: and they shall dwell safely in the wilderness, and sleep in the woods.
E farei com elles um concerto de paz, e farei cessar a besta ruim da terra, e habitarão no deserto seguramente, e dormirão nos bosques.
26 And I 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.
E a elles, e aos logares ao redor do meu outeiro, os porei por benção; e farei descer a chuva a seu tempo: chuvas de benção serão.
27 And the tree of the field shall yield her fruit, and the earth shall yield her increase, and they shall be safe in their land, and shall know that I [am] the LORD, when I have broken the bands of their yoke, and delivered them out of the hand of those that subjected them to service.
E as arvores do campo darão o seu fructo, e a terra dará a sua novidade, e estarão seguros na sua terra; e saberão que eu sou o Senhor, quando eu quebrar as varas do seu jugo e os livrar da mão dos que se serviam d'elles.
28 And they shall no more be a prey to the heathen, neither shall the beast of the land devour them; but they shall dwell safely, and none shall make [them] afraid.
E não servirão mais de rapina aos gentios, e a besta fera da terra nunca mais os comerá: e habitarão seguramente, e ninguem haverá que os espante.
29 And I will raise up for them a plant of renown, and they shall be no more consumed with hunger in the land, neither bear the shame of the heathen any more.
E lhes levantarei uma planta de nome, e nunca mais serão arrebatados da fome na terra, nem mais levarão sobre si o opprobrio dos gentios.
30 Thus shall they know that I the LORD their God [am] with them, and [that] they, [even] the house of Israel, [are] my people, saith the Lord GOD.
Saberão, porém, que eu, o Senhor seu Deus, estou com elles, e que elles são o meu povo, a casa d'Israel, diz o Senhor Jehovah.
31 And ye my flock, the flock of my pasture, [are] men, [and] I [am] your God, saith the Lord GOD.
Vós pois, ó ovelhas minhas, ovelhas do meu pasto; homens sois; porém eu sou o vosso Deus, diz o Senhor Jehovah.
