Jeremias 26
1 In the beginning of the reign of king Sedekias, there came this word concerning Aelam.
Tamin’ ny niandohan’ ny nanjakan’ i Joiakima, zanak’ i Josia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, no nahatongavan’ izao teny izao avy tamin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:
2 FOR EGYPT, AGAINST THE POWER OF PHARAO NECHAO KING OF EGYPT, who was by the river Euphrates in Charmis, whom Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon smote in the fourth year of Joakim king of Juda.
Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Mitsangàna eo an-kianjan’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah, ka lazao amin’ ny tanànan’ ny Joda rehetra, izay avy hiankohoka ao an-tranon’ i Jehovah, ny teny rehetra izay efa nasaiko hambaranao aminy, ary aza amelana na dia teny iray akory aza.
3 Take up arms and spears, and draw nigh to battle;
Fa angamba hihaino ihany izy, ka samy hiala amin’ ny lalany ratsy, dia hanenenako ny loza izay kasaiko hamelezana azy noho ny faharatsian’ ny ataony.
4 and harness the horses: mount, ye horsemen, and stand ready in your helmets; advance the spears, and put on your breast-plates.
Ary lazao aminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Raha tsy mihaino Ahy ianareo ka tsy mandeha araka ny lalàko izay napetrako teo anoloanareo,
5 Why do they fear, and turn back? even because their mighty men shall be slain: they have utterly fled, and being hemmed in they have not rallied, saith the Lord.
ary tsy mihaino ny tenin’ ny mpaminany mpanompoko, izay irahiko aminareo, eny, nifoha maraina koa Aho ka naniraka, nefa tsy mba nihaino ianareo
6 Let not the swift flee, and let not the mighty man escape to the north: the [forces] at Euphrates are become feeble, and they have fallen.
dia hataoko tahaka an’ i Silo ity trano ity, ary hataoko fanozonana ho an’ ny firenena rehetra ambonin’ ny tany ity tanàna ity.
7 Who is this [that] shall come up as a river, and as rivers roll [their] waves?
Ary ny mpisorona sy ny mpaminany mbamin’ ny vahoaka rehetra dia nandre an’ i Jeremia nanambara ireo teny rehetra ireo tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah.
8 The waters of Egypt shall come up like a river: and he said, I will go up, and will cover the earth, and will destroy the dwellers in it.
Koa nony efa tapitra voalazan’ i Jeremia izay rehetra nasain’ i Jehovah nolazaina tamin’ ny vahoaka rehetra, dia nosamborin’ ny mpisorona sy ny mpaminany mbamin’ ny vahoaka rehetra izy ka nataony hoe: Ho faty tokoa ianao.
9 Mount ye the horses, prepare the chariots; go forth, ye warriors of the Ethiopians, and Libyans armed with shields; and mount, ye Lydians, bend the bow.
Nahoana ianao no naminany tamin’ ny anaran’ i Jehovah hoe: Ho tahaka an’ i Silo ity tanàna ity, ary ho lao ity tanàna ity, ka tsy hisy mponina? Ary ny vahoaka rehetra dia nitangorona tamin’ i Jeremia tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah.
10 And that day [shall be] to the Lord our God a day of vengeance, to take vengeance on his enemies: and the sword of the Lord shall devour, and be glutted, and be drunken with their blood: for the Lord [has] a sacrifice from the land of the north at the river Euphrates.
Fa nony ren’ ny mpanapaka ny Joda izany zavatra izany, dia niakatra avy tany amin’ ny tranon’ ny mpanjaka nankany amin’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah izy ka nipetraka teo anoloan’ ny vavahady vaovaon’ i Jehovah.
11 Go up to Galaad, and take balm for the virgin daughter of Egypt: in vain hast thou multiplied thy medicines; there is no help in thee.
Ary ny mpisorona sy ny mpaminany nilaza tamin’ ny mpanapaka sy ny vahoaka rehetra hoe: Misy heloka tokony hahafaty ity lehilahy ity; fa efa naminany loza ho amin’ ity tanàna ity izy araka izay efa ren’ ny sofinareo.
12 The nations have heard thy voice, and the land has been filled with thy cry: for the warriors have fainted fighting one against another, [and] both are fallen together.
Dia nilaza tamin’ ny mpanapaka rehetra sy ny vahoaka rehetra Jeremia hoe: Jehovah no naniraka ahy haminany izay rehetra efa renareo ny amin’ ity trano sy ity tanàna ity.
13 THE WORDS WHICH THE LORD SPOKE by Jeremias, concerning the coming of the king of Babylon to smite the land of Egypt.
Koa ankehitriny ataovy tsara ny lalanareo sy ny ataonareo, ary mihainoa ny feon’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrareo; fa hanenenan’ i Jehovah ny loza izay efa nolazainy hamelezana anareo.
14 Proclaim [it] at Magdol, and declare [it] at Memphis: say ye, Stand up, and prepare; for the sword has devoured thy yew-tree.
Fa ny amiko, dia, indro, efa eto an-tananareo aho; koa ataovy amiko izay ataonareo ho mety sy marina.
15 Wherefore has Apis fled from thee? thy choice calf has not remained; for the Lord has utterly weakened him.
Kanefa mihevera tsara, fa raha mamono ahy anie ianareo, dia hahatonga rà marina aminareo sy amin’ ity tanàna ity ary amin’ ny mponina eto, satria Jehovah tokoa no naniraka ahy taminareo hilaza ireo teny rehetra ireo eto anatrehanareo.
16 And thy multitude has fainted and fallen; and each one said to his neighbour, Let us arise, and return into our country to our people, from the Grecian sword.
Dia hoy ny mpanapaka sy ny vahoaka rehetra tamin’ ny mpisorona sy ny mpaminany: Tsy misy heloka tokony hahafaty ity lehilahy ity, satria tamin’ ny anaran’ i Jehovah Andriamanitsika no nitenenany tamintsika.
17 Call ye the name of Pharao Nechao king of Egypt, Saon esbeie moed.
Dia nisy nitsangana ny loholona ka nanao tamin’ ny vahoaka rehetra vory teo hoe:
18 [As] I live, saith the Lord God, he shall come as Itabyrion among the mountains, and as Carmel that is on the sea.
Mika Morastita dia naminany tamin’ ny andron’ i Hezekia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, ka nanao tamin’ ny Joda rehetra hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro: “Ziona dia hasaina toy ny tanimboly, ary Jerosalema ho tonga korontam-bato, ary ny tendrombohitra misy ny trano dia ho tonga toy ny havoana mifono ala.”.
19 O daughter of Egypt dwelling [at home], prepare thee stuff for removing: for Memphis shall be utterly desolate, and shall be called Woe, because there are no inhabitants in it.
Moa namono azy va Hezekia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, sy ny Joda rehetra? Tsy natahotra an’ i Jehovah va izy ka nifona tamin’ i Jehovah, ka dia nanenenan’ i Jehovah ny loza izay efa nolazainy hamelezany azy? Fa isika kosa izao dia mila hampidi-doza lehibe amin’ ny tenantsika.
20 Egypt is a fair heifer, [but] destruction from the north is come upon her.
Ary nisy lehilahy anankiray koa izay naminany tamin’ ny anaran’ i Jehovah, dia Oria, zanak’ i Semaia, avy any Kiriata-jearima, izay naminany loza ho amin’ ity tanàna sy ity tany ity araka izany teny rehetra nataon’ i Jeremia izany koa.
21 Also her hired [soldiers] in the midst of her are as fatted calves fed in her; for they also have turned, and fled with one accord: they stood not, for the day of destruction was come upon them, and the time of their retribution.
Ary nony ren’ i Joiakima mpanjaka sy ny lehilahy maheriny rehetra ny teniny, dia nitady hahafaty azy ny mpanjaka; ary nony nandre izany Oria, dia natahotra izy ka nandositra, ary tonga tany Egypta;
22 Their voice is as [that] of a hissing serpent, for they go upon the sand; they shall come upon Egypt with axes, as men that cut wood.
ary Joiakima mpanjaka naniraka olona nankany Egypta, dia Elnatana, zanak’ i Akbora, mbamin’ ny olona sasany nanaraka ny hankany Egypta.
23 They shall cut down her forest, saith the Lord, for [their number] cannot at all be conjectured, for it exceeds the locust in multitude, and they are innumerable.
Ary Oria dia nalain’ ireo niala avy tany Egypta ka nentiny teo amin’ i Joiakima mpanjaka; ary izy namono azy tamin’ ny sabatra, dia nanary ny fatiny teny amin’ ny fasam-bahoaka.
24 The daughter of Egypt is confounded; she is delivered into the hands of a people from the north.
Nefa ny tànan’ i Ahikama, zanak’ i Safana, dia nomba an’ i Jeremia mba tsy hanolorana azy ho eo an-tànan’ ny vahoaka hovonoiny.
25 Behold, I [will] avenge Ammon her son upon Pharao, and upon them that trust in him.
27 But fear not thou, my servant Jacob, neither be thou alarmed, Israel: for, behold, I will save thee from afar, and thy seed from their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and be at ease, and sleep, and there shall be no one to trouble him.
28 Fear not thou, my servant Jacob, saith the Lord; for I am with thee: she [that was] without fear and in luxury, has been delivered up: for I will make a full end of every nation among whom I have thrust thee forth; but I will not cause thee to fail: yet will I chastise thee in the way of judgment, and will not hold thee entirely guiltless.
