Ezequiel 34

1 Y FUÉ á mí palabra de Jehová, diciendo:

And the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,

2 Hijo del hombre, profetiza contra los pastores de Israel; profetiza, y diles á los pastores: Así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: ¡Ay de los pastores de Israel, que se apacientan á sí mismos! ¿No apacientan los pastores los rebaños?

Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel. Prophesy, and say to them, even to the shepherds, Thus says the Lord Jehovah: Woe to the shepherds of Israel who feed themselves! Should not the shepherds feed the sheep?

3 Coméis la leche, y os vestís de la lana: la gruesa degolláis, no apacentáis las ovejas.

Ye eat the fat, and ye clothe yourselves with the wool. Ye kill the fatlings, but ye do not feed the sheep.

4 No corroborasteis las flacas, ni curasteis la enferma: no ligasteis la perniquebrada, ni tornasteis la amontada, ni buscasteis la perdida; sino que os habéis enseñoreado de ellas con dureza y con violencia;

Ye have not strengthened the diseased, nor have ye healed that which was sick, nor have ye bound up that which was broken, nor have ye brought back that which was driven away, nor have ye sought that which was lost, but ye have ruled over them with force and with rigor.

5 Y están derramadas por falta de pastor; y fueron para ser comidas de toda bestia del campo, y fueron esparcidas.

And they were scattered because there was no shepherd. And they became food to all the beasts of the field, and were scattered.

6 Y anduvieron perdidas mis ovejas por todos los montes, y en todo collado alto: y en toda la haz de la tierra fueron derramadas mis ovejas, y no hubo quien buscase, ni quien requiriese.

My sheep wandered through all the mountains, and upon every high hill. Yea, my sheep were scattered upon all the face of the earth, and there was none who searched or sought.

7 Por tanto, pastores, oid palabra de Jehová:

Therefore, ye shepherds, hear the word of Jehovah:

8 Vivo yo, ha dicho el Señor Jehová, que por cuanto mi rebaño fué para ser robado, y mis ovejas fueron para ser comidas de toda bestia del campo, sin pastor; ni mis pastores buscaron mis ovejas, sino que los pastores se apacentaron á sí mismos, y no apacentaron mis ovejas;

As I live, says the lord Jehovah, surely inasmuch as my sheep became a prey, and my sheep became food to all the beasts of the field, because there was no shepherd, nor did my shepherds search for my sheep, but the shepherds fed themselves, and did not feed my sheep,

9 Por tanto, oh pastores, oid palabra de Jehová:

therefore, ye shepherds, hear the word of Jehovah.

10 Así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: He aquí, yo á los pastores; y requeriré mis ovejas de su mano, y haréles dejar de apacentar las ovejas: ni los pastores se apacentarán más á sí mismos; pues yo libraré mis ovejas de sus bocas, y no les serán más por comida.

Thus says the lord Jehovah: 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.

11 Porque así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: He aquí, yo, yo requeriré mis ovejas, y las reconoceré.

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

12 Como reconoce su rebaño el pastor el día que está en medio de sus ovejas esparcidas, así reconoceré mis ovejas, y las libraré de todos los lugares en que fueron esparcidas el día del nublado y de la oscuridad.

As a shepherd seeks out his flock, in the day that he is among his sheep that are scattered abroad, so I will seek out my sheep, and I will deliver them out of all places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day.

13 Y yo las sacaré de los pueblos, y las juntaré de las tierras: y las meteré en su tierra, y las apacentaré en los montes de Israel por las riberas, y en todas las habitaciones del país.

And I 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 upon the mountains of Israel, by the watercourses, and in all the inhabited places of the country.

14 En buenos pastos las apacentaré, y en los altos montes de Israel será su majada: allí dormirán en buena majada, y en pastos gruesos serán apacentadas sobre los montes de Israel.

I will feed them with good pasture, and their fold shall be upon the mountains of the height of Israel. There they shall lie down in a good fold, and on fat pasture they shall feed upon the mountains of Israel.

15 Yo apacentaré mis ovejas, y yo les haré tener majada, dice el Señor Jehová.

I myself will be the shepherd of my sheep, and I will cause them to lie down, says the lord Jehovah.

16 Yo buscaré la perdida, y tornaré la amontada, y ligaré la perniquebrada, y corroboraré la enferma: mas á la gruesa y á la fuerte destruiré. Yo las apacentaré en juicio.

I 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 I will destroy the fat and the strong. I will feed them in justice.

17 Mas vosotras, ovejas mías, así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: He aquí yo juzgo entre oveja y oveja, entre carneros y machos cabríos.

And as for you, O my flock, thus says the lord Jehovah: Behold, I judge between sheep and sheep, the rams and the he-goats.

18 ¿Os es poco que comáis los buenos pastos, sino que holléis con vuestros pies lo que de vuestros pastos queda; y que bebiendo las aguas sentadas, holléis además con vuestros pies las que quedan?

Does it seem a small thing to you to have fed upon the good pasture, but ye must tread down with your feet the residue of your pasture, and to have drunk of the clear waters, but ye must foul the residue with your feet?

19 Y mis ovejas comen lo hollado de vuestros pies, y beben lo que con vuestros pies habéis hollado.

And as for my sheep, they eat that which ye have trodden with your feet, and they drink that which ye have fouled with your feet.

20 Por tanto, así les dice el Señor Jehová: He aquí, yo, yo juzgaré entre la oveja gruesa y la oveja flaca,

Therefore thus says the lord Jehovah to them: Behold, I, even I, will judge between the fat sheep and the lean sheep.

21 Por cuanto rempujasteis con el lado y con el hombro, y acorneasteis con vuestros cuernos á todas las flacas, hasta que las esparcisteis fuera.

Because ye thrust with side and with shoulder, and push all the diseased with your horns, till ye have scattered them abroad,

22 Yo salvaré á mis ovejas, y nunca más serán en rapiña; y juzgaré entre oveja y oveja.

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

23 Y despertaré sobre ellas un pastor, y él las apacentará; á mi siervo David: él las apacentará, y él les será por pastor.

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.

24 Yo Jehová les seré por Dios, y mi siervo David príncipe en medio de ellos. Yo Jehová he hablado.

And I, Jehovah, will be their God, and my servant David ruler among them. I, Jehovah, have spoken it.

25 Y estableceré con ellos pacto de paz, y haré cesar de la tierra las malas bestias; y habitarán en el desierto seguramente, y dormirán en los bosques.

And I will make a covenant of peace with them, and will cause evil beasts to cease out of the land, and they shall dwell securely in the wilderness, and sleep in the woods.

26 Y daré á ellas, y á los alrededores de mi collado, bendición; y haré descender la lluvia en su tiempo, lluvias de bendición serán.

And I will make them and the places round about my hill a blessing, and I will cause the shower to come down in its season; there shall be showers of blessing.

27 Y el árbol del campo dará su fruto, y la tierra dará su fruto, y estarán sobre su tierra seguramente; y sabrán que yo soy Jehová, cuando quebrare las coyundas de su yugo, y los librare de mano de los que se sirven de ellos.

And the 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 Jehovah when I have broken the bars of their yoke, and have delivered them out of the hand of those who made bondmen of them.

28 Y no serán más presa de las gentes, ni las bestias de la tierra las devorarán; sino que habitarán seguramente, y no habrá quien espante;

And they shall no more be a prey to the nations, nor shall the beasts of the earth devour them, but they shall dwell securely, and none shall make them afraid.

29 Y despertaréles una planta por nombre, y no más serán consumidos de hambre en la tierra, ni serán más avergonzados de las gentes.

And I will raise up to them a plantation for renown, and they shall no more be consumed with famine in the land, nor bear the shame of the nations any more.

30 Y sabrán que yo su Dios Jehová soy con ellos, y ellos son mi pueblo, la casa de Israel, dice el Señor Jehová.

And they shall know that I, Jehovah, their God am with them, and that they, the house of Israel, are my people, says the lord Jehovah.

31 Y vosotras, ovejas mías, ovejas de mi pasto, hombres sois, y yo vuestro Dios, dice el Señor Jehová.

And ye my sheep, the sheep of my pasture, are men, and I am your God, says the lord Jehovah.
