ΙΕΖΕΚΙΗΛ - Ezechiele - Ezekiel 34

LXX	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 και εγενετο λογος κυριου προς με λεγων	1 Thus the word of the LORD came to me:
2 υιε ανθρωπου προφητευσον επι τους ποιμενας του ισραηλ προφητευσον και ειπον τοις ποιμεσι ταδε λεγει κυριος κυριος ω ποιμενες ισραηλ μη βοσκουσιν ποιμενες εαυτους ου τα προβατα βοσκουσιν οι ποιμενες	2 Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel, in these words prophesy to them (to the shepherds): Thus says the Lord GOD: Woe to the shepherds of Israel who have been pasturing themselves! Should not shepherds, rather, pasture sheep?
3 ιδου το γαλα κατεσθετε και τα ερια περιβαλλεσθε και το παχυ σφαζετε και τα προβατα μου ου βοσκετε	3 You have fed off their milk, worn their wool, and slaughtered the fatlings, but the sheep you have not pastured.
4 το ησθενηκος ουκ ενισχυσατε και το κακως εχον ουκ εσωματοποιησατε και το συντετριμμενον ου κατεδησατε και το πλανωμενον ουκ επεστρεψατε και το απολωλος ουκ εζητησατε και το ισχυρον κατειργασασθε μοχθω	4 You did not strengthen the weak nor heal the sick nor bind up the injured. You did not bring back the strayed nor seek the lost, but you lorded it over them harshly and brutally.
5 και διεσπαρη τα προβατα μου δια το μη ειναι ποιμενας και εγενηθη εις καταβρωμα πασι τοις θηριοις του αγρου	5 So they were scattered for lack of a shepherd, and became food for all the wild beasts. My sheep were scattered
6 και διεσπαρη μου τα προβατα εν παντι ορει και επι παν βουνον υψηλον και επι προσωπου πασης της γης διεσπαρη και ουκ ην ο εκζητων ουδε ο αποστρεφων	6 and wandered over all the mountains and high hills; my sheep were scattered over the whole earth, with no one to look after them or to search for them.
7 δια τουτο ποιμενες ακουσατε λογον κυριου	7 Therefore, shepherds, hear the word of the LORD:
8 ζω εγω λεγει κυριος κυριος ει μην αντι του γενεσθαι τα προβατα μου εις προνομην και γενεσθαι τα προβατα μου εις καταβρωμα πασι τοις θηριοις του πεδιου παρα το μη ειναι ποιμενας και ουκ εξεζητησαν οι ποιμενες τα προβατα μου και εβοσκησαν οι ποιμενες εαυτους τα δε προβατα μου ουκ εβοσκησαν	8 As I live, says the Lord GOD, because my sheep have been given over to pillage, and because my sheep have become food for every wild beast, for lack of a shepherd; because my shepherds did not look after my sheep, but pastured themselves and did not pasture my sheep;
9 αντι τουτου ποιμενες	9 because of this, shepherds, hear the word of the LORD:
10 ταδε λεγει κυριος κυριος ιδου εγω επι τους ποιμενας και εκζητησω τα προβατα μου εκ των χειρων αυτων και αποστρεψω αυτους του μη ποιμαινειν τα προβατα μου και ου βοσκησουσιν ετι οι ποιμενες αυτα και εξελουμαι τα προβατα μου εκ του στοματος αυτων και ουκ εσονται αυτοις ετι εις καταβρωμα	10 Thus says the Lord GOD: I swear I am coming against these shepherds. I will claim my sheep from them and put a stop to their shepherding my sheep so that they may no longer pasture themselves. I will save my sheep, that they may no longer be food for their mouths.
11 διοτι ταδε λεγει κυριος ιδου εγω εκζητησω τα προβατα μου και επισκεψομαι αυτα	11 For thus says the Lord GOD: I myself will look after and tend my sheep.
12 ωσπερ ζητει ο ποιμην το ποιμνιον αυτου εν ημερα οταν η γνοφος και νεφελη εν μεσω προβατων διακεχωρισμενων ουτως εκζητησω τα προβατα μου και απελασω αυτα απο παντος τοπου ου διεσπαρησαν εκει εν ημερα νεφελης και γνοφου	12 As a shepherd tends his flock when he finds himself among his scattered sheep, so will I tend my sheep. I will rescue them from every place where they were scattered when it was cloudy and dark.
13 και εξαξω αυτους εκ των εθνων και συναξω αυτους απο των χωρων και εισαξω αυτους εις την γην αυτων και βοσκησω αυτους επι τα ορη ισραηλ και εν ταις φαραγξιν και εν παση κατοικια της γης	13 I will lead them out from among the peoples and gather them from the foreign lands; I will bring them back to their own country and pasture them upon the mountains of Israel (in the land's ravines and all its inhabited places).
14 εν νομη αγαθη βοσκησω αυτους και εν τω ορει τω υψηλω ισραηλ εσονται αι μανδραι αυτων εκει κοιμηθησονται και εκει αναπαυσονται εν τρυφη αγαθη και εν νομη πιονι βοσκηθησονται επι των ορεων ισραηλ	14 In good pastures will I pasture them, and on the mountain heights of Israel shall be their grazing ground. There they shall lie down on good grazing ground, and in rich pastures shall they be pastured on the mountains of Israel.
15 εγω βοσκησω τα προβατα μου και εγω αναπαυσω αυτα και γνωσονται οτι εγω ειμι κυριος ταδε λεγει κυριος κυριος	15 I myself will pasture my sheep; I myself will give them rest, says the Lord GOD.
16 το απολωλος ζητησω και το πλανωμενον επιστρεψω και το συντετριμμενον καταδησω και το εκλειπον ενισχυσω και το ισχυρον φυλαξω και βοσκησω αυτα μετα κριματος	16 The lost I will seek out, the strayed I will bring back, the injured I will bind up, the sick I will heal (but the sleek and the strong I will destroy), shepherding them rightly.
17 και υμεις προβατα ταδε λεγει κυριος κυριος ιδου εγω διακρινω ανα μεσον προβατου και προβατου κριων και τραγων	17 As for you, my sheep, says the Lord GOD, I will judge between one sheep and another, between rams and goats.
18 και ουχ ικανον υμιν οτι την καλην νομην ενεμεσθε και τα καταλοιπα της νομης υμων κατεπατειτε τοις ποσιν υμων και το καθεστηκος υδωρ επινετε και το λοιπον τοις ποσιν υμων εταρασσετε	18 Was it not enough for you to graze on the best pasture, that you had to trample the rest of your pastures with your feet? Was it not enough for you to drink the clearest water, that you had to foul the remainder with your feet?
19 και τα προβατα μου τα πατηματα των ποδων υμων ενεμοντο και το τεταραγμενον υδωρ υπο των ποδων υμων επινον	19 Thus my sheep had to graze on what your feet had trampled and drink what your feet had fouled.
20 δια τουτο ταδε λεγει κυριος κυριος ιδου εγω διακρινω ανα μεσον προβατου ισχυρου και ανα μεσον προβατου ασθενους	20 Therefore thus says the Lord GOD: Now will I judge between the fat and the lean sheep.
21 επι ταις πλευραις και τοις ωμοις υμων διωθεισθε και τοις κερασιν υμων εκερατιζετε και παν το εκλειπον εξεθλιβετε	21 Because you push with side and shoulder, and butt all the weak sheep with your horns until you have driven them out,
22 και σωσω τα προβατα μου και ου μη ωσιν ετι εις προνομην και κρινω ανα μεσον κριου προς κριον	22 I will save my sheep so that they may no longer be despoiled, and I will judge between one sheep and another.
23 και αναστησω επ' αυτους ποιμενα ενα και ποιμανει αυτους τον δουλον μου δαυιδ και εσται αυτων ποιμην	23 I will appoint one shepherd over them to pasture them, my servant David; he shall pasture them and be their shepherd.
24 και εγω κυριος εσομαι αυτοις εις θεον και δαυιδ εν μεσω αυτων αρχων εγω κυριος ελαλησα	24 I, the LORD, will be their God, and my servant David shall be prince among them. I, the LORD, have spoken.
25 και διαθησομαι τω δαυιδ διαθηκην ειρηνης και αφανιω θηρια πονηρα απο της γης και κατοικησουσιν εν τη ερημω και υπνωσουσιν εν τοις δρυμοις	25 I will make a covenant of peace with them, and rid the country of ravenous beasts, that they may dwell securely in the desert and sleep in the forests.
26 και δωσω αυτους περικυκλω του ορους μου και δωσω τον υετον υμιν υετον ευλογιας	26 I will place them about my hill, sending rain in due season, rains that shall be a blessing to them.
27 και τα ξυλα τα εν τω πεδιω δωσει τον καρπον αυτων και η γη δωσει την ισχυν αυτης και κατοικησουσιν επι της γης αυτων εν ελπιδι ειρηνης και γνωσονται οτι εγω ειμι κυριος εν τω συντριψαι με τον ζυγον αυτων και εξελουμαι αυτους εκ χειρος των καταδουλωσαμενων αυτους	27 The trees of the field shall bear their fruits, and the land its crops, and they shall dwell securely on their own soil. Thus they shall know that I am the LORD when I break the bonds of their yoke and free them from the power of those who enslaved them.
28 και ουκ εσονται ετι εν προνομη τοις εθνεσιν και τα θηρια της γης ουκετι μη φαγωσιν αυτους και κατοικησουσιν εν ελπιδι και ουκ εσται ο εκφοβων αυτους	28 They shall no longer be despoiled by the nations or devoured by beasts of the earth, but shall dwell secure, with no one to frighten them.
29 και αναστησω αυτοις φυτον ειρηνης και ουκετι εσονται απολλυμενοι λιμω επι της γης και ου μη ενεγκωσιν ετι ονειδισμον εθνων	29 I will prepare for them peaceful fields for planting; they shall no longer be carried off by famine in the land, or bear the reproaches of the nations.
30 και γνωσονται οτι εγω ειμι κυριος ο θεος αυτων και αυτοι λαος μου οικος ισραηλ λεγει κυριος	30 Thus they shall know that I, the LORD, am their God, and they are my people, the house of Israel, says the Lord GOD.
31 προβατα μου και προβατα ποιμνιου μου εστε και εγω κυριος ο θεος υμων λεγει κυριος κυριος	31 (You, my sheep, you are the sheep of my pasture, and I am your God, says the Lord GOD.)
