WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Άνοιξον, Λίβανε, τας θύρας σου και ας καταφάγη πυρ τας κέδρους σου.
1 OH Líbano, abre tus puertas, y queme fuego tus cedros.
1 Open your doors, Lebanon, that the fire may devour your cedars.
2 Ολόλυξον, ελάτη, διότι έπεσεν κέδρος· διότι οι μεγιστάνες ηφανίσθησαν· ολολύξατε, δρυς της Βασάν, διότι το δάσος το απρόσιτον κατεκόπη.
2 Aulla, oh haya, porque el cedro cayó, porque los magníficos son talados. Aullad, alcornoques de Basán, porque el fuerte monte es derribado.
2 Wail, cypress tree, for the cedar has fallen, because the stately ones are destroyed. Wail, you oaks of Bashan, for the strong forest has come down.
3 Φωνή ακούεται ποιμένων θρηνούντων, διότι η δόξα αυτών ηφανίσθη· φωνή βρυχωμένων σκύμνων, διότι το φρύαγμα του Ιορδάνου εταπεινώθη.
3 Voz de aullido de pastores, porque su magnificencia es asolada; estruendo de bramidos de cachorros de leones, porque la soberbia del Jordán es destruída.
3 A voice of the wailing of the shepherds! For their glory is destroyed—a voice of the roaring of young lions! For the pride of the Jordan is ruined.
4 Ούτω λέγει Κύριος ο Θεός μου· Ποίμαινε το ποίμνιον της σφαγής,
4 Así ha dicho Jehová mi Dios: Apacienta las ovejas de la matanza;
4 Yahweh my God says: “Feed the flock of slaughter.
5 το οποίον οι αγοράσαντες αυτό σφάζουσιν ατιμωρήτως· οι δε πωλούντες αυτό λέγουσιν, Ευλογητός ο Κύριος, διότι επλούτησα, και αυτοί οι ποιμένες αυτού δεν φείδονται αυτού.
5 A las cuales mataban sus compradores, y no se tenían por culpables; y el que las vendía, decía: Bendito sea Jehová, que he enriquecido; ni sus pastores tenían piedad de ellas.
5 Their buyers slaughter them and go unpunished. Those who sell them say, ‘Blessed be Yahweh, for I am rich;’ and their own shepherds don’t pity them.
6 Διά τούτο δεν θέλω φεισθή πλέον των κατοίκων του τόπου, λέγει Κύριος, αλλ' ιδού, εγώ θέλω παραδώσει τους ανθρώπους έκαστον εις την χείρα του πλησίον αυτού και εις την χείρα του βασιλέως αυτού, και θέλουσι κατακόψει την γην και δεν θέλω ελευθερώσει αυτούς εκ της χειρός αυτών.
6 Por tanto, no más tendré piedad de los moradores de la tierra, dice Jehová: porque he aquí, yo entregaré los hombres, cada cual en mano de su compañero, y en mano de su rey; y quebrantarán la tierra, y yo no libraré de sus manos.
6 For I will no more pity the inhabitants of the land,” says Yahweh; “but, behold, I will deliver every one of the men into his neighbor’s hand and into the hand of his king. They will strike the land, and out of their hand I will not deliver them.”
7 Και εποίμανα το ποίμνιον της σφαγής, το όντως τεταλαιπωρημένον ποίμνιον. Και έλαβον εις εμαυτόν δύο ράβδους, την μίαν εκάλεσα Κάλλος και την άλλην εκάλεσα Δεσμούς, και εποίμανα το ποίμνιον.
7 Apacenté pues las ovejas de la matanza, es á saber, los pobres del rebaño. Y me tomé dos cayados; al uno puse por nombre Suavidad, y al otro Ataduras; y apacenté las ovejas.
7 So I fed the flock to be slaughtered, especially the oppressed of the flock. I took for myself two staffs. The one I called “Favor” and the other I called “Union”, and I fed the flock.
8 Και εξωλόθρευσα τρεις ποιμένας εν ενί μηνί· και η ψυχή μου εβαρύνθη αυτούς και η ψυχή δε αυτών απεστράφη εμέ.
8 E hice matar tres pastores en un mes, y mi alma se angustió por ellos, y también el alma de ellos me aborreció á mí.
8 I cut off the three shepherds in one month; for my soul was weary of them, and their soul also loathed me.
9 Τότε είπα, Δεν θέλω σας ποιμαίνει· το αποθνήσκον ας αποθνήσκη και το απολωλός ας απόλλυται και τα εναπολειπόμενα ας τρώγωσιν έκαστον την σάρκα του πλησίον αυτού.
9 Y dije: No os apacentaré; la que muriere, muera; y la que se perdiere, se pierda; y las que quedaren, que cada una coma la carne de su compañera.
9 Then I said, “I will not feed you. That which dies, let it die; and that which is to be cut off, let it be cut off; and let those who are left eat each other’s flesh.”
10 Και έλαβον την ράβδον μου, το Κάλλος, και κατέκοψα αυτήν, διά να ακυρώσω την διαθήκην μου, την οποίαν έκαμον προς πάντας τους λαούς τούτους,
10 Tomé luego mi cayado Suavidad, y quebrélo, para deshacer mi pacto que concerté con todos los pueblos.
10 I took my staff Favor and cut it apart, that I might break my covenant that I had made with all the peoples.
11 και ηκυρώθη εν τη ημέρα εκείνη· και ούτω το ποίμνιον το τεταλαιπωρημένον, το οποίον απέβλεπεν εις εμέ, εγνώρισεν ότι ούτος ήτο ο λόγος του Κυρίου.
11 Y fué deshecho en ese día, y así conocieron los pobres del rebaño que miran á mí, que era palabra de Jehová.
11 It was broken in that day; and thus the poor of the flock that listened to me knew that it was Yahweh’s word.
12 Και είπα προς αυτούς, Εάν σας φαίνηται καλόν, δότε μοι τον μισθόν μου· ει δε μη, αρνήθητε αυτόν. Και έστησαν τον μισθόν μου τριάκοντα αργύρια.
12 Y díjeles: Si os parece bien, dadme mi salario; y si no, dejadlo. Y pesaron para mi salario treinta [piezas] de plata.
12 I said to them, “If you think it best, give me my wages; and if not, keep them.” So they weighed for my wages thirty pieces of silver.
13 Και είπε Κύριος προς εμέ, Ρίψον αυτά εις τον κεραμέα, την έντιμον τιμήν, με την οποίαν ετιμήθην υπ' αυτών. Και έλαβον τα τριάκοντα αργύρια και έρριψα αυτά εν τω οίκω του Κυρίου εις τον κεραμέα.
13 Y díjome Jehová: Echalo al tesorero, hermoso precio con que me han apreciado. Y tomé las treinta [piezas] de plata, y echélas en la casa de Jehová al tesorero.
13 Yahweh said to me, “Throw it to the potter—the handsome price that I was valued at by them!” I took the thirty pieces of silver and threw them to the potter in Yahweh’s house.
14 Και κατέκοψα την άλλην μου ράβδον, τους Δεσμούς, διά να ακυρώσω την αδελφότητα μεταξύ Ιούδα και Ισραήλ.
14 Quebré luego el otro mi cayado Ataduras, para romper la hermandad entre Judá é Israel.
14 Then I cut apart my other staff, Union, that I might break the brotherhood between Judah and Israel.
15 Και είπε Κύριος προς εμέ, Λάβε εις σεαυτόν έτι τα εργαλεία ποιμένος ασυνέτου.
15 Y díjome Jehová: Toma aún el hato de un pastor insensato;
15 Yahweh said to me, “Take for yourself yet again the equipment of a foolish shepherd.
16 Διότι ιδού, εγώ θέλω αναστήσει ποιμένα επί την γην, όστις δεν θέλει επισκέπτεσθαι τα απολωλότα, δεν θέλει ζητεί το διεσκορπισμένον και δεν θέλει ιατρεύει το συντετριμμένον ουδέ θέλει ποιμαίνει το υγιές· αλλά θέλει τρώγει την σάρκα του παχέος και κατακόπτει τους όνυχας αυτών.
16 Porque he aquí, yo levanto pastor en la tierra, que no visitará las perdidas, no buscará la pequeña, no curará la perniquebrada, ni llevará la cansada á cuestas; sino que se comerá la carne de la gruesa, y romperá sus uñas.
16 For, behold, I will raise up a shepherd in the land who will not visit those who are cut off, neither will seek those who are scattered, nor heal that which is broken, nor feed that which is sound; but he will eat the meat of the fat sheep, and will tear their hoofs in pieces.
17 Ουαί εις τον μάταιον ποιμένα, τον εγκαταλείποντα το ποίμνιον· ρομφαία θέλει ελθεί επί τον βραχίονα αυτού και επί τον δεξιόν οφθαλμόν αυτού· ο βραχίων αυτού θέλει ολοτελώς ξηρανθή και ο δεξιός οφθαλμός αυτού ολοκλήρως αμαυρωθή.
17 Mal haya el pastor de nada, que deja el ganado. Espada sobre su brazo, y sobre su ojo derecho: del todo se secará su brazo, y enteramente será su ojo derecho oscurecido.
17 Woe to the worthless shepherd who leaves the flock! The sword will strike his arm and his right eye. His arm will be completely withered, and his right eye will be totally blinded!”

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
And I will say to them, If it be good in your sight, give me my price, or refuse, and the rest.
