1Open thy gates, O Libanus, and let fire devour thy cedars.
1Aw Lebanon, nang ih Sidar thing hmai mah kang hanah, nangmah ih khongkha to paong ah.
2Howl, thou fir tree, for the cedar is fallen, for the mighty are laid waste: howl, ye oaks of Basan, because the fenced forest is cut down.
2Sidar thingkung loe amtim boeh pongah, Aw hmaica thing, qah ah; kahoih thingnawk loe amtim o boih boeh; Bashan ih kamtak oak thingnawk, qah oh; tu thung ih thingnawk loe pahum o boih boeh.
3The voice of the howling of the shepherds, because their glory is laid waste: the voice of the roaring of the lions, because the pride of the Jordan is spoiled.
3Nihcae lensawkhaih to amro boih boeh pongah, tuutoep kaminawk ih qahhaih lok to oh: Jordan amoekhaih loe amro boeh pongah, kaipui hanghaih lok to oh.
4Thus saith the Lord my God: Feed the flock of the slaughter,
4Ka Angraeng Sithaw mah, hum han kaom tuu to pacah ah;
5Which they that possessed, slew, and repented not, and they sold them, saying: Blessed be the Lord, we are become rich: and their shepherds spared them not.
5Tawnkung mah tuunawk to boh naah, danpaekhaih tidoeh om ai: tuu zaw kaminawk mah, Angraeng loe tahamhoihaih om nasoe, kai loe angraeng boeh, tiah thuih o: tuutoep kaminawk loe tuunawk to tahmen ai.
6And I will no more spare the inhabitants of the land, saith the Lord: behold I will deliver the men, every one into his neighbour’s hand, and into the hand of his king: and they shall destroy the land, and I will not deliver it out of their hand.
6Prae thungah kaom kaminawk tahmenhaih ka tawn mak ai boeh, tiah Angraeng mah thuih: toe, khenah, kami boih angmacae taengah kaom kaminawk khaeah ka paek han, angmacae siangpahrang ban ah ka paek han: nihcae mah prae to tuh o tih, to naah nihcae ban thung hoi ka pahlong mak ai.
7And I will feed the hock of slaughter for this, O ye poor of the dock. And I took unto me two rods, one I called Beauty, and the other I called a Cord, and I fed the flock.
7To pongah nang kamtang tuu, hum han kaom tuu to ka pacah han. Tuu toephaih cung hnetto ka lak, maeto loe Kranghoih, tiah ahmin ka paek, kalah maeto loe zaenghaih qui, tiah ka kawk; tuu to ka pacah.
8And I cut off three shepherds in one month, and my soul was straitened in their regard: for their soul also varied in my regard.
8Khrahto thungah tuutoep kami thumto kang haksak; ka hinghaih mah nihcae to hnukma, nihcae hinghaih mah doeh kai to hnukma o toeng.
9And I said: I will not feed you: that which dieth, let it die: and that which is cut off, let it be cut off: and let the rest devour every one the flesh of his neighbour.
9To pacoengah kai mah, Nangcae kang pacah o mak ai boeh, kadueh kami loe, dueh nasoe; anghma kami loe anghma nasoe; anghmat kaminawk loe maeto hoi maeto ih ngan to caa o nasoe, tiah ka naa.
10And I took my rod that was called Beauty, and I cut it asunder to make void my covenant, which I had made with all people.
10To naah prae kaminawk boih hoi ka sak ih lokmaihaih to ka lak let thai hanah, Kranghoih cunghet to, ka lak moe, ka khaeh lawt.
11And it was made void in that day: and so the poor of the flock that keep for me, understood that it is the word of the Lord.
11To na niah angkhaeh lawt; to pongah kai kazing amtang tuutoep kaminawk mah, hae loe Angraeng ih lok ni, tiah panoek o.
12And I said to them: If it be good in your eyes, bring hither my wages: and if not, be quiet. And they weighed for my wages thirty pieces of silver.
12Kai mah nihcae khaeah, Kahoih hmuen na poek o nahaeloe, ka toksakhaih atho to na paek oh; toe to tiah na poek o ai nahaeloe, na paek o hmah, tiah ka naa. To pongah nihcae mah kai hanah sum kanglung phoisa qui thumto ang noek pae o.
13And the Lord said to me: Cast it to the statuary, a handsome price, that I was prized at by them. And I took the thirty pieces of silver, and I cast them into the house of the Lord to the statuary.
13To naah Angraeng mah kai khaeah, Nihcae mah kai han katingah ang paek o ih atho to long laom sahkung khaeah va ah, tiah ang naa. To pongah sum kanglung phoisa qui thumto ka lak moe, Angraeng imthung ih long laom sah kami khaeah ka vah.
14And I cut off my second rod that was called a Cord, that I might break the brotherhood between Juda and Israel.
14To pacoengah zaenghaih qui, tiah kawk ih kalah cung to ka khaeh moe, Judah hoi Israel nawkamya ah ohhaih to ka phraek.
15And the Lord said to me: Take to thee yet the instruments of a foolish shepherd.
15To naah Angraeng mah kai khaeah, kamthu tuutoep kami ih hmuennawk to la ah.
16For behold I will raise up a shepherd in the land, who shall not visit what is forsaken, nor seek what is scattered, nor heal what is broken, nor nourish that which standeth, and he shall eat the flesh of the fat ones, and break their hoofs.
16Khenah, prae nuiah tuutoep kami maeto ka pacah han, anih loe anghma kaminawk to dawncang mak ai, tuucaanawk doeh pakrong mak ai, ahmaa kaca tuunawk doeh khenzawn mak ai ueloe, angdoe sut tuunawk doeh pacah mak ai: toe anih loe kathawk hruk tuu moi to caa tih, a khokpacin mataeng doeh amongh pae boih tih.
17O shepherd, and idol, that forsaketh the flock: the sword upon his arm and upon his right eye: his arm shall quite wither away, and his right eye shall be utterly darkened.
17Tuucaa caehtaak tuutoep kami loe khosak bing! Sumsem mah a ban hoi bantang mik to takroek pae nasoe; a ban to angqo pae nasoe loe, a bantang mik to maeng pae nasoe, tiah a naa.
