Zechariah 11
1 Open, O Lebanon, thy doors, —that a fire, may devour, thy cedar,
黎巴嫩哪，开开你的门， 任火烧灭你的香柏树。
2 Howl, fir-tree, for fallen is the cedar, because, the majestic ones, are spoiled: howl, ye oaks of Bashan, for the inaccessible forest, hath come down.
松树啊，应当哀号； 因为香柏树倾倒，佳美的树毁坏。 巴珊的橡树啊，应当哀号， 因为茂盛的树林已经倒了。
3 The noise of the howling of the shepherds, for spoiled is their majesty, —The noise of the roaring of the young lions, for spoiled are the proud banks of the Jordan.
听啊，有牧人哀号的声音， 因他们荣华的草场毁坏了。 有少壮狮子咆哮的声音， 因约旦河旁的丛林荒废了。
4 Thus, saith Yahweh my God, —Tend thou the flock doomed to slaughter:
耶和华—我的 神如此说：“你—撒迦利亚要牧养这将宰的群羊。
5 Whose, buyers, slay them, and are not held guilty, and whose, sellers, say—Blessed be Yahweh, that I am become rich, And so, their own shepherds, have no pity upon them.
买他们的宰了他们，以自己为无罪；卖他们的说：‘耶和华是应当称颂的，因我成为富足。’牧养他们的并不怜恤他们。
6 Surely I will have pity no longer upon the inhabitants of the earth, Declareth Yahweh, —Therefore lo! I am delivering up mankind, every man into the hand of his neighbour, and into the hand of his king, and they will crush the earth, nor will I deliver out of their hand.
耶和华说：‘我不再怜恤这地的居民，必将这民交给各人的邻舍和他们王的手中。他们必毁灭这地，我也不救这民脱离他们的手。’”
7 So I tended the flock doomed to slaughter, for the sheep-merchants, —and took unto me two staves, the one, I called Grace, and, the other, I called Union, thus I tended the sheep,
于是，我牧养这将宰的群羊，就是群中最困苦的羊。我拿着两根杖，一根我称为“荣美”，一根我称为“联索”。这样，我牧养了群羊。
8 And I sent off three shepherds, in one month, —for impatient was my soul with them, moreover also, their soul, felt a loathing against me.
一月之内，我除灭三个牧人，因为我的心厌烦他们；他们的心也憎嫌我。
9 Then said I—I will not tend you, —the dying, may die, and, the disappearing, may disappear, and, the remainder, may devour one another.
我就说：“我不牧养你们。要死的，由他死；要丧亡的，由他丧亡；余剩的，由他们彼此相食。”
10 So I took my staff Grace, and cut it in two, —that I might set aside my covenant which I had solemnised with all the peoples.
我折断那称为“荣美”的杖，表明我废弃与万民所立的约。
11 When it was broken, on that day, then did the sheep- merchants who were watching me, know, that, the word of Yahweh, it was.
当日就废弃了。这样，那些仰望我的困苦羊就知道所说的是耶和华的话。
12 Then said I unto them, If it be good in your eyes, give me my wage, and, if not, forbear. So they weighed out my wage, thirty pieces of silver.
我对他们说：“你们若以为美，就给我工价。不然，就罢了！”于是他们给了三十块钱作为我的工价。
13 Then said Yahweh unto me, Cast it into the treasury, the magnificent price at which I had been valued by them! So I took the thirty pieces of silver, and cast them, in the house of Yahweh, into the treasury.
耶和华吩咐我说：“要把众人所估定美好的价值丢给窑户。”我便将这三十块钱，在耶和华的殿中丢给窑户了。
14 Then cut I in two my second staff, even Union, —that I might break the brotherhood between Judah and Israel.
我又折断称为“联索”的那根杖，表明我废弃犹大与以色列弟兄的情谊。
15 Then said Yahweh unto me, —Yet further take thee the implements of a worthless shepherd.
耶和华又吩咐我说：“你再取愚昧牧人所用的器具，
16 For lo! I am raising up a shepherd in the land, the disappearing, will he not visit, the straying, will he not seek, and, the fractured, will he not bind up, —the weak, will he not nourish, but, the flesh of the fat, will he eat, and, their hoofs, will he break in pieces.
因我要在这地兴起一个牧人。他不看顾丧亡的，不寻找分散的，不医治受伤的，也不牧养强壮的；却要吃肥羊的肉，撕裂它的蹄子。
17 Alas! for my worthless shepherd, who forsaketh the flock, A sword upon his arm, and upon his right eye!—his arm, shall be, utterly withered, and, his right eye, shall be, wholly darkened.
无用的牧人丢弃羊群有祸了！ 刀必临到他的膀臂和右眼上。 他的膀臂必全然枯干； 他的右眼也必昏暗失明。”
