Isroil choʻponlari
1 Egamiz menga Oʻz soʻzini ayon qildi: 2 “Ey inson, Isroil choʻponlariga qarshi bashorat qilib ayt: «Egamiz Rabbiy shunday demoqda: ey Isroil choʻponlari, sizning holingizga voy! Sizlar qoʻylarni boqish oʻrniga oʻzingizni boqib yuribsizlar! 3 Eng semiz qoʻylarni soʻyib, yogʻini yeysizlar. Jundan toʻqilgan kiyimlar kiyasizlar. Qoʻylarni esa boqmaysizlar. 4 Nimjon qoʻylarga qaramaysizlar, kasallarni davolamaysizlar, yaralarini bogʻlamaysizlar, adashganlarni olib kelmaysizlar, yoʻqolganlarni izlamaysizlar. Aksincha, ularni qattiqqoʻllik bilan boshqarib, zulm oʻtkazasizlar. 5 Suruvning choʻponi boʻlmagani uchun qoʻylarim har yoqqa tarqalib ketdi. Ular hamma yovvoyi hayvonlarga oʻlja boʻldi. 6 Ha, qoʻylarim tarqalib ketdi. Ular togʻu tepaliklarda sandiroqlab yurdi. Butun yer yuziga yoyilib ketdi, ularni hech kim izlamadi.
7 Ey choʻponlar, Mening soʻzimni eshitib qoʻyinglar. 8 Men, Egangiz Rabbiy, barhayot Xudo boʻlganim haqi ont ichib aytaman: ana, choʻponsiz qolgan qoʻylarim oʻlja boʻldi. Mening qoʻylarim hamma yovvoyi hayvonlarga yegulik boʻldi. Ey choʻponlarim, sizlar qoʻylarimni qidirmadingiz. Qoʻylarimni boqmay, oʻzingizni boqdingiz. 9 Shuning uchun, ey choʻponlar, Mening soʻzimni ikki qulogʻingiz bilan eshitib qoʻyinglar! 10 Men, Egangiz Rabbiy, aytamanki, sizlarga qarshiman. Nobud boʻlgan qoʻylarimni sizlardan undirib olaman. Sizlar suruvimni boshqa boqmaysizlar. Bundan buyon faqat oʻz qorinlaringizni toʻygʻizib yurmaysizlar. Men qoʻylarimni sizning ogʻzingizdan tortib olaman, sizlar qoʻylarimni yemaysizlar.
Yaxshi choʻpon
11 Egamiz Rabbiy shunday demoqda: ey choʻponlar, Men Oʻzim qoʻylarimni qidirib topaman. 12 Adashgan suruvni qidirgan choʻponday qoʻylarimni izlayman. Bulutli, qorongʻi kunda har yoqqa tarqalib ketgan qoʻylarimni hamma joydan xalos qilib olib kelaman. 13 Ularni begona oʻlkayu yurtlardan olib chiqib, ona zaminiga olib kelaman. Isroil togʻlarida, soyliklarda va yurtning obod oʻlkalarida ularni boqaman. 14 Yaxshi yaylovlarda oʻtlataman, Isroil togʻlari ularning yaylovi boʻladi. Ular oʻsha yerdagi maysazorlarda yotib, Isroil togʻlarining koʻm–koʻk yaylovlarida oʻtlab yuradi. 15 Men Oʻzim qoʻylarimga choʻpon boʻlaman. Ularga orom beraman, — deb aytmoqda Egamiz Rabbiy. 16 — Yoʻqolgan qoʻylarimni izlab topaman, adashganlarini qaytarib olib kelaman. Ularning yaralarini bogʻlab qoʻyaman, nimjon qoʻylarni parvarish qilaman. Semiz, baquvvat qoʻylarni esa yoʻq qilaman. Men suruvimni adolat ila boqaman.
17 Ey suruvimdagi qoʻylar, sizlar haqingizda Men, Egangiz Rabbiy, aytamanki, suruvimdagi qoʻylar orasida ajrim qilaman, qoʻchqor va taka orasida hukm chiqaraman. 18 Nega sizlar yaxshi oʻtdan yeb, ortganini payhon qilyapsizlar?! Tiniq suvdan ichib, qonganingizdan keyin suvni loyqalatyapsizlar?! 19 Nima uchun qolgan qoʻylarim sizlar payhon qilgan oʻtdan yeyishlari kerak?! Sizlar loyqalatgan suvdan ichishlari kerak?!»
20 Isroil xalqiga ayt: «Egamiz Rabbiy shunday demoqda: Men Oʻzim semiz va oriq qoʻylarni ajrim qilaman. 21 Semiz qoʻylar oriq qoʻylarimni biqini va yelkasi bilan itarib, shoxlari bilan suzdi. Ularni uzoqlarga tarqatib yubordi. 22 Lekin Men suruvimni qutqarib olaman, ular endi oʻlja boʻlmaydilar. Men bir qoʻy bilan boshqa qoʻy orasida ajrim qilaman. 23 Men qulim Dovudni choʻpon qilib tayinlayman. U suruvimni boqadi, ularga choʻponlik qiladi. 24 Men ularning Xudosi boʻlaman, qulim Dovud esa ularning hukmdori boʻladi. Bularni Men, Egangiz, aytdim.
25 Ey Isroil xalqi! Sizlar mening suruvimsiz. Men sizlar bilan tinchlik ahdini tuzib, yurtdagi barcha yovvoyi hayvonlarni quvib chiqaraman. Shunda sizlar dashtu biyobonlarda osoyishta hayot kechirasizlar, oʻrmonlarda tinch uxlaysizlar. 26 Men sizlarga baraka beraman. Muqaddas togʻim atrofida yashashingizga yoʻl qoʻyaman. Sizlarga yomgʻirni oʻz mavsumida baraka qilib yogʻdiraman. 27 Bogʻ–rogʻlardagi daraxtlar meva beradi, yer moʻl hosil yetishtiradi. Sizlar oʻz zaminingizda har qanday xavf–xatardan xoli boʻlasiz. Men sizlarni qul qilib olgan zolimlarning qoʻlidan xalos qilaman, boʻyinturugʻini sindiraman. Oʻshanda sizlar Egangiz Men ekanligimni bilib olasiz. 28 Bundan buyon oʻzga xalqlar sizlarni talamaydi, yurtdagi yovvoyi hayvonlar sizlarni gʻajimaydi. Sizlar osoyishta hayot kechirasiz, hech kim sizlarga tahdid solmaydi. 29 Ocharchilikdan nobud boʻlmasligingiz uchun Men sizlarga serunum yerlarni beraman. Oʻzga xalqlar sizlarni haqorat qilmaydigan boʻladilar. 30 Ey Isroil xalqi! Shunda Men sizlar bilan birga ekanligimni bilib olasizlar. Mening xalqim ekanligingizni sizlar anglab yetasizlar. Zotan, Men Isroil xalqining Egasi Xudoman! — deb aytmoqda Egamiz Rabbiy. 31 — Ey Isroil xalqi, sizlar Mening suruvim, yaylovimdagi qoʻylarimsizlar, Men esa sizning Xudoyingizman. Egamiz Rabbiyning kalomi shudir.»”
1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, 2 Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel, prophesy, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD unto the shepherds; Woe be to the shepherds of Israel that do feed themselves! should not the shepherds feed the flocks? 3 Ye eat the fat, and ye clothe you with the wool, ye kill them that are fed: but ye feed not the flock. 4 The diseased have ye not strengthened, neither have ye healed that which was sick, neither have ye bound up that which was broken, neither have ye brought again that which was driven away, neither have ye sought that which was lost; but with force and with cruelty have ye ruled them. 5 And they were scattered, because there is no shepherd: and they became meat to all the beasts of the field, when they were scattered. 6 My sheep wandered through all the mountains, and upon every high hill: yea, my flock was scattered upon all the face of the earth, and none did search or seek after them .
7 ¶ Therefore, ye shepherds, hear the word of the LORD; 8 As I live, saith the Lord GOD, surely because my flock became a prey, and my flock became meat to every beast of the field, because there was no shepherd, neither did my shepherds search for my flock, but the shepherds fed themselves, and fed not my flock; 9 Therefore, O ye shepherds, hear the word of the LORD; 10 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against the shepherds; and I will require my flock at their hand, and cause them to cease from feeding the flock; neither shall the shepherds feed themselves any more; for I will deliver my flock from their mouth, that they may not be meat for them.
11 ¶ For thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I, even I, will both search my sheep, and seek them out. 12 As a shepherd seeketh out his flock in the day that he is among his sheep that are scattered; so will I seek out my sheep, and will deliver them out of all places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day. 13 And I will bring them out from the people, and gather them from the countries, and will bring them to their own land, and feed them upon the mountains of Israel by the rivers, and in all the inhabited places of the country. 14 I will feed them in a good pasture, and upon the high mountains of Israel shall their fold be: there shall they lie in a good fold, and in a fat pasture shall they feed upon the mountains of Israel. 15 I will feed my flock, and I will cause them to lie down, saith the Lord GOD. 16 I will seek that which was lost, and bring again 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 with judgment.
17 And as for you, O my flock, thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I judge between cattle and cattle, between the rams and the he goats. 18 Seemeth it a small thing unto you to have eaten up the good pasture, but ye must tread down with your feet the residue of your pastures? and to have drunk of the deep waters, but ye must foul the residue with your feet? 19 And as for my flock, they eat that which ye have trodden with your feet; and they drink that which ye have fouled with your feet.
20 ¶ Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD unto them; Behold, I, even I, will judge between the fat cattle and between the lean cattle. 21 Because ye have thrust with side and with shoulder, and pushed all the diseased with your horns, till ye have scattered them abroad; 22 Therefore will I save my flock, and they shall no more be a prey; and I will judge between cattle and cattle. 23 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 And I the LORD will be their God, and my servant David a prince among them; I the LORD have spoken it . 25 And I will make with them a covenant of peace, and will cause the evil beasts to cease out of the land: and they shall dwell safely in the wilderness, and sleep in the woods. 26 And I will make them and the places round about my hill a blessing; and I will cause the shower to come down in his season; there shall be showers of blessing. 27 And the tree of the field shall yield her fruit, and the earth shall yield her increase, and they shall be safe in their land, and shall know that I am the LORD, when I have broken the bands of their yoke, and delivered them out of the hand of those that served themselves of them. 28 And they shall no more be a prey to the heathen, neither shall the beast of the land devour them; but they shall dwell safely, and none shall make them afraid. 29 And I will raise up for them a plant of renown, and they shall be no more consumed with hunger in the land, neither bear the shame of the heathen any more. 30 Thus shall they know that I the LORD their God am with them, and that they, even the house of Israel, are my people, saith the Lord GOD. 31 And ye my flock, the flock of my pasture, are men, and I am your God, saith the Lord GOD.
