< Jeremiah 11 >

1 This is the word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD:
Ty tsara nivotrak’ am’ Iirmeà, boak’am’ Iehovà, manao ty hoe:
2 “Listen to the words of this covenant and tell them to the men of Judah and the residents of Jerusalem.
Janjiño ty tsara’ ty fañina toy, naho mitaroña am’ ondati’ Iehodào, naho amo mpimone’ Ierosalaimeo;
3 You must tell them that this is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: Cursed is the man who does not obey the words of this covenant,
vaho ano ty hoe: Hoe t’Iehovà, t’i Andrianañahare’ Israele: Fatse t’ indaty tsy mañaoñe o tsara’ ty fañina toio,
4 which I commanded your forefathers when I brought them out of the land of Egypt, out of the iron furnace, saying, ‘Obey Me, and do everything I command you, and you will be My people, and I will be your God.’
I nandiliako an-droae’ areo amy andro nampiengako an-tane Mitsraime boak’ an-toñam-biy, ami’ty hoe: Haoño ty feoko, naho anò ze hene andiliako; soa te h’ondatiko nahareo, vaho ho Andrianañahare’ areo iraho;
5 This was in order to establish the oath I swore to your forefathers, to give them a land flowing with milk and honey, as it is to this day.” “Amen, LORD,” I answered.
hampijadoñeko i fañina natoloko an-droae’ areoy, homeako iareo ty tane orikorehen-dronono naho tantele, ie o henaneo. Le hoe iraho, Amena, ry Iehovà.
6 Then the LORD said to me, “Proclaim all these words in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, saying: Hear the words of this covenant and carry them out.
Le hoe t’Iehovà amako: Hene tseizo amo rova’ Iehodào naho amo lala’ Ierosalaimeo o tsara zao, ty hoe: Mijanjiña o tsara’ i fañinaio, vaho ano!
7 For from the time I brought your fathers out of the land of Egypt until today, I strongly warned them again and again, saying, ‘Obey My voice.’
Fa hinatahatako soa o roae’ areoo amy andro nañakarako iareo an-tane’ Mitsraimey, pak’ androany, boa-maraindray te mitolom- pitaroñe ama’ areo ty hoe: Haoño ty feoko.
8 Yet they would not obey or incline their ears, but each one followed the stubbornness of his evil heart. So I brought on them all the curses of this covenant I had commanded them to follow but they did not keep.”
F’ie nañajife avao iereo, tsy nanokilan-dravembia, songa nitsontike ami’ty fanjeharan-tro’e raty; aa le fonga nafetsako am’ iereo o tsara’ ty fañina toio, i nandiliako hanoeñey, f’ie tsy nipaoke.
9 And the LORD told me, “There is a conspiracy among the men of Judah and the residents of Jerusalem.
Le hoe t’Iehovà amako: Zoeñe am’ondati’ Iehodao, naho amo mpimone’Ierosalaimeo ty kinia.
10 They have returned to the sins of their forefathers who refused to obey My words. They have followed other gods to serve them. The house of Israel and the house of Judah have broken the covenant I made with their fathers.
Ie nibalike mb’amo hakeon-droae’ iareoo avao, ami’ty tsy fañaoñañe o volakoo; vaho nienga hañorike ‘ndrahare ila’e hitoroñe iareo; songa nivalike amy fañina nanoeko aman-droae’ey ty anjomba’ Israele naho ty anjomba’ Iehodà.
11 Therefore this is what the LORD says: ‘I am about to bring upon them a disaster that they cannot escape. They will cry out to Me, but I will not listen to them.
Aa le hoe t’Iehovà: Ingo handesako ty raty tsy hahafipoliorañe; aa ndra t’ie hikaikaik’ ahy Izaho tsy hañaoñe.
12 Then the cities of Judah and the residents of Jerusalem will go and cry out to the gods to which they have been burning incense, but these gods certainly will not save them in their time of disaster.
Ie amy zao hiheo mb’eo o rova’ Iehodào naho o mpimone’ Ierosalaimeo hikoikoike amo ‘ndrahare ila’e fañenga’ iareoo; f’ie toe tsy haharombake amy san-kasotriañey.
13 Your gods are indeed as numerous as your cities, O Judah; the altars of shame you have set up—the altars to burn incense to Baal—are as many as the streets of Jerusalem.’
Fa mira ami’ty ia’ o rova’oo o ‘ndrahare’ areoo, ry Iehodà; vaho mifandrae ami’ty ia’ o lalañe e Ierosalaimeo o kitrely natroa’ areo amy raha tivaio, o kitrely fisoroña’ areo amy Baaleo.
14 As for you, do not pray for these people. Do not raise up a cry or a prayer on their behalf, for I will not be listening when they call out to Me in their time of disaster.
Aa le ko mihalaly ho a’ ondaty retoa, naho ko añonjona’o soloho; fa tsy hitsanon-draho amy andro ikaikaiha’ iareo te malovilovy.
15 What right has My beloved in My house, having carried out so many evil schemes? Can consecrated meat avert your doom, so that you can rejoice?
Ino ty anoe’ i kokoakoy an-kivohoko ao, kanao nanoa’e hakarapiloañe amy màroy? ie tsy sazo azo i henam-pisoroña’o miavakey? Amy te mampirebek’azo ty manao hatsivokarañe.
16 The LORD once called you a flourishing olive tree, beautiful with well-formed fruit. But with a mighty roar He will set it on fire, and its branches will be consumed.
Tinoño’ Iehovà ty hoe ty añara’o, Hatae olive mandrevake, fanjaka am-boa’e, soa vintañe. Am-pikorahan-kotakotake t’ie namiañe afo ama’e, vaho fonga pinozapozake o tsampa’eo.
17 The LORD of Hosts, who planted you, has decreed disaster against you on account of the evil that the house of Israel and the house of Judah have brought upon themselves, provoking Me to anger by burning incense to Baal.”
Iehovà’ i Màroy, i nañetsa azoy ty namatse hekoheko ama’o, ty amy hatsivokara’ ty kiboho’ Israeley, naho ty kivoho’ Iehodày, ie fa nifetsak’ama’ iareo ami’ty fanigiha’ iareo ahy amy fisoroña’ iareo amy Baaley.
18 And the LORD informed me, so I knew. Then You showed me their deeds.
Tinolo’ Iehovà hilala ama’e iraho, vaho nirendreko; naboa’o amako ty sata’ iareo.
19 For I was like a gentle lamb led to slaughter; I did not know that they had plotted against me: “Let us destroy the tree with its fruit; let us cut him off from the land of the living, that his name may be remembered no more.”
Fe nihoe anak’añondry nitrotrotrotro iraho te nitantalieñe mb’eo ho lentañe; le tsy napotako t’ie nikilily ahy, ami’ty hoe: Antao hamira i hataey rekets’ o voa ama’eo; ie haitoan-tika an-tanen-kaveloñe, tsy ho tiahy ka ty añara’e.
20 O LORD of Hosts, who judges righteously, who examines the heart and mind, let me see Your vengeance upon them, for to You I have committed my cause.
O ry Iehovà’ i Màroy, ry mpizaka an-katò, ry mpitsoke ova naho troke, ehe te ho treako ty hañondroha’o am’ iareo; Ihe ro niborahako ty toreoko.
21 Therefore this is what the LORD says concerning the people of Anathoth who are seeking your life and saying, “You must not prophesy in the name of the LORD, or you will die by our hand.”
Aa le hoe t’Iehovà ty am’ondaty nte- Anatote mipay ty fiai’o, manao ty hoe: Ko mitoky ami’ty tahina’ Iehovà tsy mone hivetrak’ am-pità’ay.
22 So this is what the LORD of Hosts says: “I will punish them. Their young men will die by the sword, their sons and daughters by famine.
le hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy: Toe ho liloveko: hampikoromahem-pibara’ o ajalahio, hampivetrahe’ ty kerè o ana-dahy naho anak’ampela’ iareoo;
23 There will be no remnant, for I will bring disaster on the people of Anathoth in the year of their punishment.”
Toe tsy hapoke sehanga’e, fa hametsahako hankàñe amo nte-Anatoteo: ty taom-pitilihañe iareo.
