Jeremiah 42
1 Then all the captains of the forces, and Johanan the son of Kareah, and Jezaniah the son of Hoshaiah, and all the people from the least even to the greatest, came near,
Aa le nañarivo mb’eo o mpifehe lahindefoñe iabio, naho Iohanane ana’ i Karea, naho Iezanià ana’ i Hosaià, vaho ze hene ondaty, ty bey naho ty kedeke,
2 and said to Jeremiah the prophet, “Please let our supplication be presented before you, and pray for us to the LORD your God, even for all this remnant, for we are left but a few of many, as your eyes see us,
nanao ty hoe am’ Iirmeà mpitoky, Ehe te ho no’o ty halali’ay t’ie hisoloho ho anay am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o, ho amako o hene sehanga’e retoa; amy te nengañe tsy ampeampe tika nimaro, ie o isam-pihaino’oo;
3 that the LORD your God may show us the way in which we should walk, and the things that we should do.”
soa te hatoro’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o ama’ay ty hañaveloa’ay naho ty hanoe’ay.
4 Then Jeremiah the prophet said to them, “I have heard you. Behold, I will pray to the LORD your God according to your words; and it will happen that whatever thing the LORD answers you, I will declare it to you. I will keep nothing back from you.”
Aa le hoe t’Iirmeà mpitoky am’ iereo, Fa tsinanoko nahareo; toe ho halalieko am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo ty amy saontsi’ areoy; ie amy zao, ze tsara hatoi’ Iehovà ama’ areo ty hitaroñako; tsy eo ty ho tanako ama’ areo.
5 Then they said to Jeremiah, “May the LORD be a true and faithful witness among us, if we do not do according to all the word with which the LORD your God sends you to tell us.
Aa le nanao ty hoe am’ Iirmeà iereo, Ehe te ho valolombeloñe vantañe naho migahiñe añivo-tika t’Iehovà, naho tsy hanoe’ay ze hene tsara hañiraha’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o ama’ay añama’o.
6 Whether it is good, or whether it is bad, we will obey the voice of the LORD our God, to whom we send you; that it may be well with us, when we obey the voice of the LORD our God.”
Ke t’ie ho soa he te ho raty, ho haoñe’ay ty fiarañanaña’ Iehovà Andrianañaharentika amantoha’ay azoy; soa te hañasoa anay ty hañaoñe ty fiarañanaña’ Iehovà Andrianañaharentika.
7 After ten days, the LORD’s word came to Jeremiah.
Aa ie nimodo ty folo andro, le niheo am’ Iirmeà ty tsara’ Iehovà.
8 Then he called Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who were with him, and all the people from the least even to the greatest,
Le kinoi’e t’Iohanane ana’ i Kerea naho o mpifehen-dahin-defoñe mpiama’eo naho ze hene ondaty, ty kede naho ty bey
9 and said to them, “The LORD, the God of Israel, to whom you sent me to present your supplication before him, says:
vaho nanoe’e ty hoe: Hoe t’Iehovà, Andrianañahare’ Israeley, ie namantoha’ areo ahy hañenga i halali’ areoy añatrefa’e.
10 ‘If you will still live in this land, then I will build you, and not pull you down, and I will plant you, and not pluck you up; for I grieve over the distress that I have brought on you.
Aa naho toe himoneña’ areo o tane toio, le haoreko fa tsy harotsako; hamboleko fa tsy hombotako; le hanintsiñeko ty amy hankàñe nanoeko ama’ areoy.
11 Do not be afraid of the king of Babylon, of whom you are afraid. Do not be afraid of him,’ says the LORD, ‘for I am with you to save you, and to deliver you from his hand.
Ko hembaña’ areo i mpanjaka’ i Babilone irevendreveña’ areoy; ko miria-tsandry ty ama’e; hoe t’Iehovà; toe hindre ama’ areo iraho handrombake naho hamotsotse anahareo am-pità’e.
12 I will grant you mercy, that he may have mercy on you, and cause you to return to your own land.
Le ho tolorako tretrè soa te hiferenaiña’e le hampolie’e mb’an-tane’ areo ao.
13 “‘But if you say, “We will not dwell in this land,” so that you do not obey the LORD your God’s voice,
F’ie mone hanao ty hoe: Tsy himoneña’ay ty tane toy; amy te tsy haoñe’ areo ty fiarañanaña’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo;
14 saying, “No, but we will go into the land of Egypt, where we will see no war, nor hear the sound of the trumpet, nor have hunger of bread; and there we will dwell;”’
vaho manao ty hoe: Aiy! hañavelo mb’e Mitsraime mb’eo zahay, tsy hahaisak’ aly, tsy hahajanjiñe antsiva, tsy hifeake kerè; le añe ty himoneña’ay;
15 now therefore hear the LORD’s word, O remnant of Judah! The LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, says, ‘If you indeed set your faces to enter into Egypt, and go to live there,
le janjiño ty tsara’ Iehovà, ry sehanga’ Iehodà: Hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy, i Andrianañahare’ Israeley; naho toañe’ areo o lahara’ areoo higodañe mb’e Mitsraime mb’eo hisese añe;
16 then it will happen that the sword, which you fear, will overtake you there in the land of Egypt; and the famine, about which you are afraid, will follow close behind you there in Egypt; and you will die there.
le ho takare’ i fibara ihembaña’ areoy an-tane Mitsraime ao, vaho hañoridañe anahareo e Mitsraime añe i hasalikoañe marimarihe’ areoy; vaho hikoromak’ añe.
17 So will it be with all the men who set their faces to go into Egypt to live there. They will die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence. None of them will remain or escape from the evil that I will bring on them.’
Izay ty hifetsak’ amy ze fonga ondaty mampitoañe ty lahara’e mb’e Mitsraime mb’eo hitaveañe añe; ho zamane’ ty fibara, ty hasalikoañe, naho ty angorosy; vaho tsy ho aman-tsehanga’e ndra ty hahabotafotse ami’ty feh’ohatse hafetsako ama’e.
18 For the LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, says: ‘As my anger and my wrath has been poured out on the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so my wrath will be poured out on you, when you enter into Egypt; and you will be an object of horror, an astonishment, a curse, and a reproach; and you will see this place no more.’
Fa hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy, i Andrianañahare’ Israeley: Manahake ty nampidoañañe ty habosehako naho ty fiforoforoako amo mpimone’ Ierosalaimeo, ty hampidoañañe ama’ areo ty fileveleveako naho mimoake e Mitsraime añe; le ho fokom-patse, ho halatsañe, ho ozoñe naho inje; vaho tsy ho isa’ areo ka ty toetse toy.
19 “The LORD has spoken concerning you, remnant of Judah, ‘Do not go into Egypt!’ Know certainly that I have testified to you today.
Hoe ty nitsarà’ Iehovà ama’areo ry sehanga’ Iehodào; Ko mimoak’ e Mitsraime ao; mahafohina te hinatahatako anindroany.
20 For you have dealt deceitfully against your own souls; for you sent me to the LORD your God, saying, ‘Pray for us to the LORD our God; and according to all that the LORD our God says, so declare to us, and we will do it.’
Fe nifañahie’ areo ty tro’areo; ami’ty nañirahañ’ ahy mb’am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo, ami’ty hoe: Ihalalio ho anay t’Iehovà Andrianañaharentika vaho itaroño ndra inoñ’ inoñe saontsie’ Iehovà Andrianañaharentika, le hanoe’ay.
21 I have declared it to you today; but you have not obeyed the LORD your God’s voice in anything for which he has sent me to you.
Aa le ie i tinaroko ama’ areo anindroaniy; fe tsy haoñe’ areo ty fiarañanaña’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo ami’ty inoñ’ inoñe namantoha’e ahy ho ama’areo.
22 Now therefore know certainly that you will die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence in the place where you desire to go to live.”
Mahafohina an-katò t’ie hampihomahem-pibara naho ty mosare vaho ty angorosy amy toetse tea’ areo hombañe hañialoa’ areoy.
