1: Open wide [G1272], O the [G3588] Lebanon, the [G3588] your doors [G2374][G1473], and [G2532] let devour [G2719] fire [G4442] the [G3588] your cedars [G2748][G1473]!
2: Let shriek [G3649] pine ! because [G1360] has fallen [G4098] cedar [G2748], for [G1360] were in misery [G5003] great ones [G3175]. Shriek [G3649], O oaks of the [G3588] Bashan! for [G3754] were torn down the [G3588] groves the [G3588] planted [G4854].
3: A sound [G5456] of wailing [G2354] of shepherds [G4166], for [G3754] languishes [G5003] the [G3588]ir greatness [G3172][G1473]. A sound [G5456] of roaring [G5612] lions [G3023], for [G3754] languishes [G5003] the [G3588] neighing of the [G3588] Jordan].
4: Thus [G3592] says [G3004] Boss '[G2962] almighty [G3841], Tend [G4165] the [G3588] sheep [G4263] of the [G3588] slaughter [G4967],
5: which [G3739] the [G3588] [ones] acquiring [G2932] butcher [G2695], and [G2532] are repenting not [G3756][G3338]. And [G2532] the [G3588] [ones] selling [G4453] them [G1473] said [G3004], Blessed [be [G2128] Boss '[G2962], we were enriched [G4147]. And [G2532] the [G3588]ir shepherds [G4166][G1473] suffered not [G3756][G3958] anything [G3762] for [G1909] them [G1473].
6: On account of [G1223] this [G3778], I will not [G3756] spare [G5339] any longer [G3765] over [G1909] the [G3588] [ones] inhabiting [G2730] the [G3588] land '[G1093], says [G3004] Boss '[G2962]. And [G2532] look [G2400], I [G1473] deliver up [G3860] the [G3588] men , each [G1538] into [G1519] hand [G5495] of the [G3588] his neighbor [G4139][G1473], and [G2532] into [G1519] hand [G5495] of his king [G1473]; and [G2532] they will cut in pieces [G2629] the [G3588] land '[G1093], and [G2532] in no way should I rescue [G1807] from out of [G1537] their hand [G5495][G1473].
7: And [G2532] I will tend [G4165] the [G3588] sheep [G4263] of the [G3588] slaughter [G4967] in [G1519] the [G3588] [land] of the] Canaanites. And [G2532] I will take [G2983] for myself [G1683] two [G1417] rods [G4464]; the [G3588] [one] [G1520] I called [G2564] Beauty , and [G2532] the [G3588] other [G2087] I called [G2564], A piece of measured out land ; and [G2532] I will tend [G4165] the [G3588] sheep [G4263].
8: And [G2532] I will lift away [G1808] the [G3588] three [G5140] shepherds [G4166] in [G1722] month [G3376] one [G1520]; and [G2532] will be weighed down the [G3588] soul [G5590] of me [G1473] over [G1909] them [G1473], for [G2532][G1063] the [G3588]ir souls [G5590][G1473] roared against [G1909] me [G1473].
9: And [G2532] I said [G2036], I will not [G3756] tend [G4165] you [G1473]. the [G3588] dying , let it die ! And [G2532] the [G3588] failing [G1587], let it fail [G1587]! and [G2532] the [G3588] rest [G2645], let them eat [G2719] each [G1538] the [G3588] flesh [G4561] of the [G3588] his neighbor [G4139][G1473]!
10: And [G2532] I will take [G2983] the [G3588] my rod [G4464][G1473], the [G3588] Beauty [G2570], and [G2532] I will throw it away [G1473] to efface the [G3588] my covenant [G1242][G1473] which [G3739] I ordained [G1303] with [G4314] all [G3956] the [G3588] peoples [G2992].
11: And [G2532] it will be effaced in [G1722] the [G3588] that day [G2250][G1565]. And [G2532] will know [G1097] the [G3588] Canaanites] the [G3588] sheep [G4263] being guarded [G5442] for me [G1473], that [G1360] word [G3056] [of the] Boss '[G2962] it is .
12: And [G2532] I will say [G2046] to [G4314] them [G1473], if [G1487] good [G2570] before [G1799] you [G1473] it is , give [G1325] the [G3588] my wage [G3408][G1473], or [G2228] forbid it ! And [G2532] they established [G2476] the [G3588] my wage [G3408][G1473] -- thirty [G5144] pieces of silver .
13: And [G2532] BOSS said [G2036][G2962] to [G4314] me [G1473], Lower [G2524] them [G1473] into [G1519] the [G3588] foundry furnace ! and [G2532] to look about if [G1487] it is unadulterated [G1384]! in which [G3739] manner [G5158] I was proved [G1381] for [G5228] them [G1473]. And [G2532] I took [G2983] the [G3588] thirty [G5144] pieces of silver , and [G2532] I put [G1685] them [G1473] into [G1519] the [G3588] house [G3624] of Boss '[G2962], into [G1519] the [G3588] foundry furnace .
14: And [G2532] I threw away the [G3588] my rod [G4464][G1473], the [G3588] second [G1208], the [G3588] A Piece of Measured out Land the [G3588] to efface the [G3588] taking possession [G2697] the [thing] [G3588] between Judah and [G2532] between Israel.
15: And [G2532] BOSS said [G2036][G2962] to [G4314] me [G1473], Yet [G2089] take [G2983] to yourself [G4572] equipment [G4632] of a shepherd -- shepherd [G4166] an inexperienced !
16: For [G1360] look [G2400], I will arouse [G1825] a shepherd [G4166] against [G1909] the [G3588] land '[G1093], one who [G3748] the [G3588] [one] faltering [G1587] in no way will visit [G1980]; and [G2532] the [G3588] [one] being dispersed [G4650] in no way will he seek [G2212]; and [G2532] the [G3588] [one] being broken [G4937] in no way will he heal [G2390]; and [G2532] the [G3588] whole [G3648] in no way will he conduct [G2720]. And [G2532] the [G3588] meats [G2907] of the [G3588] choice [G1588] he will devour [G2719], and [G2532] the [G3588]ir vertebrae [G1473] he will distort [G1612].
17: O [G5599] the [G3588] [ones] tending [G4165] the [G3588] vain [things] [G3152], and [G2532] leaving behind [G2641] the [G3588] sheep [G4263]; a sword [will be [G3162] against [G1909] the [G3588] his arm [G1023][G1473], and [G2532] against [G1909] the [G3588] eye [G3788] the [G3588] his right [G1188][G1473]. the [G3588] His arm [G1023][G1473] withering [G3583] will be withered [G3583], and [G2532] the [G3588] eye [G3788] the [G3588] his right [G1188][G1473] by blinding will be blinded .
