Jeremiah 39
1 In the ninth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the tenth month, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon marched against Jerusalem with his entire army and laid siege to the city.
Ary rehefa afaka Jerosalema (tamin’ ny volana fahafolo tamin’ ny taona fahasivy nanjakan’ i Zedekia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, no nahatongavan’ i Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ i Babylona, sy ny miaramilany rehetra hamely an’ i Jerosalema ka nanao fahirano azy;
2 And on the ninth day of the fourth month of Zedekiah’s eleventh year, the city was breached.
ary nony tamin’ ny andro fahasivy tamin’ ny volana fahefatra tamin’ ny taona fahiraika ambin’ ny folo nanjakan’ i Zedekia, dia nisy voabanga ny tanàna),
3 Then all the officials of the king of Babylon entered and sat in the Middle Gate: Nergal-sharezer of Samgar, Nebo-sarsekim the Rabsaris, Nergal-sharezer the Rabmag, and all the rest of the officials of the king of Babylon.
dia niditra ny mpanapaky ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona rehetra ka nipetraka teo amin’ ny vavahady ampovoany, dia Nergala-sarezera sy Samgarnebo sy Sarsekima. Raba-sarisa, sy Nergala-sarezera Raba-magy, mbamin’ ny sisa rehetra amin’ ny mpanapaky ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona.
4 When Zedekiah king of Judah and all the soldiers saw them, they fled. They left the city at night by way of the king’s garden, through the gate between the two walls, and they went out along the route to the Arabah.
Ary rehefa nahita ireo Zedekia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, sy ny miaramila rehetra, dia nandositra izy ka lasa nandeha alina niala tao an-tanàna, nahazo ny lalana mankamin’ ny sahan’ ny mpanjaka, tamin’ ny vavahady eo anelanelan’ ny manda roa; ary lasa nivoaka nankany amin’ ny lalana mankeny amin’ ny tani-hay izy.
5 But the army of the Chaldeans pursued them and overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho. They seized him and brought him up to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon at Riblah in the land of Hamath, where he pronounced judgment on him.
Fa ny miaramilan’ ny Kaldeana nanenjika azy ka nahatratra an’ i Zedekia teny amin’ ny tani-hay any Jeriko; ary nony azony izy, dia nentiny niakatra ho any amin’ i Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ i Babylona, tao Ribla tao amin’ ny tany Hamata; ka dia notsarainy tao izy.
6 There at Riblah the king of Babylon slaughtered the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and he also killed all the nobles of Judah.
Ary ny zanakalahin’ i Zedekia dia novonoin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona tao Ribla teo imason-drainy; ary ny manan-kaja rehetra tamin’ ny Joda koa dia novonoin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona.
7 Then he put out Zedekiah’s eyes and bound him with bronze chains to take him to Babylon.
Ary nopotsiriny ny mason’ i Zedekia, dia nafatony tamin’ ny gadra varahina izy ho entiny any Babylona.
8 The Chaldeans set fire to the palace of the king and to the houses of the people, and they broke down the walls of Jerusalem.
Ary nodoran’ ny Kaldeana tamin’ ny afo ny tranon’ ny mpanjaka sy ny tranon’ ny vahoaka, ary ny mandan’ i Jerosalema noravany.
9 Then Nebuzaradan captain of the guard carried away to Babylon the remnant of the people who had remained in the city, along with the deserters who had defected to him.
Ary ny olona sisa tao an-tanàna sy izay efa nanatona azy ary ny vahoaka sisa koa dia nentin’ i Nebozaradana, lehiben’ ny mpiambina, ho babo tany Babylona.
10 But Nebuzaradan left behind in the land of Judah some of the poor people who had no property, and at that time he gave them vineyards and fields.
Nefa ny olona malahelo izay tsy nanana na inona na inona kosa dia nisy ihany navelan’ i Nebozaradana, lehiben’ ny mpiambina, tao amin’ ny tanin’ ny Joda sady nomeny tanim-boaloboka sy tanimboly tamin’ izany andro izany.
11 Now Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had given orders about Jeremiah through Nebuzaradan captain of the guard, saying,
Ary Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ i Babylona, nanome teny an’ i Nebozaradana, lehiben’ ny mpiambina, ny amin’ i Jeremia nanao hoe:
12 “Take him, look after him, and do not let any harm come to him; do for him whatever he says.”
Ento izy, ka tandremo tsara, fa aza asian-dratsy fa araka izay lazainy aminao no ataovy aminy.
13 So Nebuzaradan captain of the guard, Nebushazban the Rabsaris, Nergal-sharezer the Rabmag, and all the captains of the king of Babylon
Ary Nebozaradana, lehiben’ ny mpiambina, sy Nebosazbana, Raba-sarisa, sy Nergala-sarezera, Raba-magy, ary ny mpanapaky ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona rehetra
14 had Jeremiah brought from the courtyard of the guard, and they turned him over to Gedaliah son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, to take him home. So Jeremiah remained among his own people.
dia naniraka haka an’ i Jeremia teo amin’ ny kianjan’ ny trano fiambenana, ka natolony an’ i Gedalia, zanak’ i Ahikama, zanak’ i Safana, mba ho entiny any an-trano izy, ka dia nitoetra tao amin’ ny olona.
15 And while Jeremiah had been confined in the courtyard of the guard, the word of the LORD had come to him:
Ary tonga tamin’ i Jeremia ny tenin’ i Jehovah, fony izy mbola voahazona tao amin’ ny kianjan’ ny trano fiambenana ihany, nanao hoe:
16 “Go and tell Ebed-melech the Cushite that this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘I am about to fulfill My words against this city for harm and not for good, and on that day they will be fulfilled before your eyes.
Mandehana, ka lazao amin’ i Ebeda-meleka Etiopiana hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely: Indro, hotoviko amin’ ity tanàna ity ny teniko hahatonga loza, fa tsy soa; ary ho tanteraka eo imasonao izany amin’ izany andro izany.
17 But I will deliver you on that day, declares the LORD, and you will not be delivered into the hands of the men whom you fear.
Nefa hovonjeko ianao amin’ izany andro izany, hoy Jehovah, fa tsy mba hatolotra eo an-tànan’ ny olona izay atahoranao.
18 For I will surely rescue you so that you do not fall by the sword. Because you have trusted in Me, you will escape with your life like a spoil of war, declares the LORD.’”
Fa hovonjeko tokoa ianao ka tsy holavon-tsabatra; eny, ny ainao no ho babonao, satria efa natoky Ahy, hoy Jehovah.
