< Jeremiah 25 >

1 This is the word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the people of Judah in the fourth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, which was the first year of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon.
Ty tsara nimb’ am’ Iirmeà ty amo hene ondati’ Iehodào amy taom-paha’ efa’ Iehoiakime ana’ Iosia, mpanjaka’ Iehodà, ty taom-baloha’ i Nebokadnetsare mpanjaka’ i Bavele;
2 So the prophet Jeremiah spoke to all the people of Judah and all the residents of Jerusalem as follows:
vaho nitseize’ Iirmeà mpitoky amy ze fonga ondati’ Iehoda naho amy ze hene mpimone’ Ierosalaime, ty hoe:
3 “From the thirteenth year of Josiah son of Amon king of Judah until this very day—twenty-three years—the word of the LORD has come to me, and I have spoken to you again and again, but you have not listened.
Sikal’ amy taom-paha folo-telo-ambi’ Iosia, ana’ i Amone, mpanjaka’ Iehodày, ampara’ ty andro toy, i taoñe roapolo telo amby rezay, le niheo amako ty tsara’ Iehovà, naho nitaroñeko ama’ areo, eka boak’ andro naho beteke te nitaroñe, f’ie tsy nañaoñe.
4 And the LORD has sent all His servants the prophets to you again and again, but you have not listened or inclined your ear to hear.
Toe nafanto’ Iehovà ama’ areo i mpitoky mpitoro’e iaby rezay, nañampitso te niraheñe—f’ie nihiritsiritse avao, tsy nanokilan-dravembia hijanjiñe—
5 The prophets told you, ‘Turn now, each of you, from your evil ways and deeds, and you can dwell in the land that the LORD has given to you and your fathers forever and ever.
nanao ty hoe: Songa mimpolia, boak’ ami’ty fitsilea’e raty, naho ami’ty haratia’ o sata’eo, vaho imoneño i tane natolo’ Iehovà anahareo naho aman-droae’ areo, ho nainai’e tsy modo,
6 Do not follow other gods to serve and worship them, and do not provoke Me to anger with the works of your hands. Then I will do you no harm.’
le ko mañean-drahare ila’e hitoroñañe naho hitalahoañe, le ko mampibosek’ ahy amo satam-pità’ areoo, vaho tsy ho lafaeko.
7 ‘But to your own harm, you have not listened to Me,’ declares the LORD, ‘so you have provoked Me to anger with the works of your hands.’
F’ie tsy nañaoñ’ ahy, hoe t’Iehovà; te mone nampiforoforo ahy amo satam-pità’ areoo ho ami’ty fiantoañe.
8 Therefore this is what the LORD of Hosts says: ‘Because you have not obeyed My words,
Aa le hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy: Amy te tsy midare o volakoo nahareo,
9 behold, I will summon all the families of the north, declares the LORD, and I will send for My servant Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, whom I will bring against this land, against its residents, and against all the surrounding nations. So I will devote them to destruction and make them an object of horror and contempt, an everlasting desolation.
le inao te hampañitrifako ze hene fifokoañe avaratse añe naho i Nebokadne­tsare mpanjaka’ i Bavele, mpitorokoy vaho hendeseko hiatreatre ty toetse toy naho o mpimoneñe ama’e ao naho o fifeheañe mañohok’ azeo, le hampangoikoihañe ho halatsàñe naho fikosasahañe vaho ho kòake nainai’e.
10 Moreover, I will banish from them the sounds of joy and gladness, the voices of the bride and bridegroom, the sound of the millstones, and the light of the lamp.
Mbore hajiko tsy ho am’ iereo ty feon-kafaleañe naho ty feom-pirebehañe, ty feom-pañenga-valy naho ty feon-enga-vao, ty feom-batom-pandisañe, naho ty hazavàm-paìlo.
11 And this whole land will become a desolate wasteland, and these nations will serve the king of Babylon for seventy years.
Ho koake iaby i taney, naho ho halatsàñe vaho hitoroñe ty mpanjaka’ i Bavele fitompolo taoñe o fifeheañe retoa.
12 But when seventy years are complete, I will punish the king of Babylon and that nation, the land of the Chaldeans, for their guilt, declares the LORD, and I will make it an everlasting desolation.
Ie heneke i taoñe fitompolo rezay, le ho liloveko ty mpanjaka’ i Bavele, naho i fifehea’ey, naho ty tane’ o nte-Kasdio hoe t’Iehovà ty amy hakeo’ iareo; vaho hanoeko fangoakoahañe kitro katroke.
13 I will bring upon that land all the words I have pronounced against it, all that is written in this book, which Jeremiah has prophesied against all the nations.
Le hafetsako amy taney ze hene volañe tsineiko ama’e, ze sinokitse ami’ty boke toy, ze nitokia’ Iirmeà amo fifeheañe iabio.
14 For many nations and great kings will enslave them, and I will repay them according to their deeds and according to the work of their hands.’”
Fifeheañe maro naho mpanjaka foloay ro hañondevo iareo; vaho havaleko am’iereo o sata’ iareoo naho ty fitoloñam-pità’ iareo.
15 This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, said to me: “Take from My hand this cup of the wine of wrath, and make all the nations to whom I send you drink from it.
Hoe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele, amako; Rambeso an-tañako ty fitovin-divaim-pifomboko toy, vaho ampinomo ze hene fifeheañe añirahako azo.
16 And they will drink and stagger and go out of their minds, because of the sword that I will send among them.”
Le hikama iereo vaho hivembèñe mb’atia mb’etia, hoe dagola, ty amy fibara hahitriko am’iereoy.
17 So I took the cup from the LORD’s hand and made all the nations drink from it, each one to whom the LORD had sent me,
Aa le rinambeko am-pità’ Iehovà i fitoviy vaho songa nampikamaeko o fifeheañe nañiraha’ Iehovà ahio:
18 to make them a ruin, an object of horror and contempt and cursing, as they are to this day—Jerusalem and the cities of Judah, its kings and officials;
Ierosalaime naho o rova’ Iehodào naho o mpanjaka’eo naho o roandria’eo, hanoeñe fianto, halatsàñe, fikosihañe, vaho fatse; le fa ie henaneo;
19 Pharaoh king of Egypt, his officials, his leaders, and all his people;
i Parò mpanjaka’ i Mitsraime, naho o mpitoro’eo naho o roandria’eo, vaho ze hene ondati’e;
20 all the mixed tribes; all the kings of Uz; all the kings of the Philistines: Ashkelon, Gaza, Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod;
naho ondaty mifamorohotse iabio; o mpanjaka’ i Oze iabio, naho o mpanjaka’ ty tane’ o nte-Pilistìo iabio, naho i Askelone, i Azà, i Ekrone, naho ty sehanga’ i Asdode;
21 Edom, Moab, and the Ammonites;
i Edome naho i Moabe vaho o ana’ i Amoneo;
22 all the kings of Tyre and Sidon; the kings of the coastlands across the sea;
o mpanjaka’ i Tsore iabio naho o mpanjaka’ i Tsidone iabio, naho ze hene mpanjaka’ o tokonose alafe’ i riakeio;
23 Dedan, Tema, Buz, and all who cut the corners of their hair;
i Dedane naho i Temà naho i Boze, naho o mañitsike ty olo-maroi’e iabio;
24 all the kings of Arabia, and all the kings of the mixed tribes who dwell in the desert;
o mpanjaka’ i Arabe iabio vaho o mpanjaka o fikokoa-mitraok’ an-dratra­ratra añe iabio;
25 all the kings of Zimri, Elam, and Media;
o mpanjaka’ i Zimry iabio, o mpanjaka’ i Elame iabio naho o mpanjaka’ o nte-Maday iabioo;
26 all the kings of the north, both near and far, one after another—all the kingdoms on the face of the earth. And after all of them, the king of Sheshach will drink it too.
o mpanjaka avaratse añe iabio, ty marine naho ty lavitse, ty raike mitraok’ ami’ty ila’e; vaho ze kila fifehea’ ty tane toy ambone’ tane atoy; le handimbe finomañe am’ iereo ty mpanjaka’ i Sesake.
27 “Then you are to tell them that this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘Drink, get drunk, and vomit. Fall down and never get up again, because of the sword I will send among you.’
Le hoe ty ho tseize’o am’ iereo: Hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy, i Andrianañahare’ Israeley: Minoma naho mimamoa naho mandoà vaho mikorovoha, amy t’ie tsy hiongake ka ty amy fibara’ hahitriko ama’ areoy.
28 If they refuse to take the cup from your hand and drink it, you are to tell them that this is what the LORD of Hosts says: ‘You most certainly must drink it!
Ie amy zao, naho ifoneña’ iareo tsy handrambe i fitoviy am-pità’o hinoma’e, le hoe ty hanoe’o am’ iereo: Hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy: Toe hikama’ areo.
29 For behold, I am beginning to bring disaster on the city that bears My Name, so how could you possibly go unpunished? You will not go unpunished, for I am calling down a sword upon all the inhabitants of the earth, declares the LORD of Hosts.’
Heheke te mamototse minday hankàñe ami’ ty rova tokaveñe ami’ty añarako toy iraho, Hapoke tsy ho liloveñe ka hao nahareo? Toe tsy ho hahàñe amy fandilovañey; amy te ho tokaveko fibara ze kila mpimo­ne’ ty tane toy, hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy.
30 So you are to prophesy all these words against them and say to them: ‘The LORD will roar from on high; He will raise His voice from His holy habitation. He will roar loudly over His pasture; like those who tread the grapes, He will call out with a shout against all the inhabitants of the earth.
Aa le itokio o entañe iaby zao, vaho ano ty hoe: Hirohake boak’andikerañe añe t’Iehovà, naho hipoña-piarañanañañe boak’ añ’ akiba’e miavake ao; hitroña’e i lia-rai’ey; hipazake manahake o mpandia valobokeo amo kila mpimone’ ty tane toio;
31 The tumult will resound to the ends of the earth because the LORD brings a charge against the nations. He brings judgment on all mankind and puts the wicked to the sword,’”
Inay ty pazake pak’añ’olo’ ty tane toy, fa manan-kabò amo kilakila’ ndatio t’Iehovà, fonga ho zakae’e ze atao nofotse; ty amo lo-tserekeo, fa nitolora’e ami’ty fibara, hoe t’Iehovà.
32 This is what the LORD of Hosts says: “Behold! Disaster is spreading from nation to nation; a mighty storm is rising from the ends of the earth.”
Hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy, Hehe te mionjoñe boak’ am-pifeheañe pak’am-pifeheañe añe o haratiañeo, vaho tio-baratse jabajaba ty honjoneñe boak’ an-tsietoitane’ an-tane atoy añe.
33 Those slain by the LORD on that day will be spread from one end of the earth to the other. They will not be mourned, gathered, or buried. They will be like dung lying on the ground.
Hirik’añ’olo’ty tane toy pak’ añ’ila’ ty tane toy añe o ho zamane’ Iehovào amy andro zay; tsy hirovetañe, tsy hambineñe, tsy haleveñe; fa ho forompotse ambone’ tane eo.
34 Wail, you shepherds, and cry out; roll in the dust, you leaders of the flock. For the days of your slaughter have come; you will fall and be shattered like fine pottery.
Mangolalaiha ry mpiarakeo, naho mangololoiha, vaho milomoloaña an-davenok’ ao, ry lohà’ i mpirai-liay fa tondroke ty androm-pandentañe naho fampiparatsiahañe anahareo, ie hivolentsa manahake ty sini-hara.
35 Flight will evade the shepherds, and escape will elude the leaders of the flock.
Ho po-pivoratsahañe o mpiarakeo, tsy eo ty hipitsiha’ o mpiaolo’ i lia-raikeio!
36 Hear the cry of the shepherds, the wailing of the leaders of the flock, for the LORD is destroying their pasture.
Inay ty fikoikoiha’ o mpiarakeo, naho ty fangololoiha’ o mpiaolo’ i lia-raikeio! fa nihotomomohe’ Iehovà ty fiandraza’ iareo.
37 The peaceful meadows have been silenced because of the LORD’s burning anger.
Le hampitsiñeñe o goloboñe nipendreñeo, ty amy haviñera’ Iehovày.
38 He has left His den like a lion, for their land has been made a desolation by the sword of the oppressor, and because of the fierce anger of the LORD.
Niavote’e manahake ty liona i fipalira’ey; fa kòake ty tane’ iareo ty amy hasiaha’ i fibara nampisoañey, naho ty amy fiforoforoan-kaviñera’ey.
