< Jeremias 11 >

1 The word that came to Jeremias from the Lord, saying,
Izao no teny tonga tamin’ i Jeremia avy tamin’ i Jehovah:
2 Hear you the words of this covenant, and you shall speak to the men of Juda, and to the dwellers in Jerusalem;
Mihainoa ny tenin’ izao fanekena izao ianareo, ary mitenena amin’ ny Joda sy amin’ ny mponina any Jerosalema,
3 and you shall say to them, Thus says the Lord God of Israel, Cursed is the man, who shall not listen to the words of this covenant,
Ary ataovy aminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely: ho voaozona izay olona tsy mankatò ny tenin’ izao fanekena izao,
4 which I commanded your fathers, in the day wherein I brought them up out of the land of Egypt, out of the iron furnace, saying, Listen to my voice, and do all things that I shall command you; so shall you be to me a people, and I will be to you a God;
Izay nandidiako ny razanareo tamin’ ny andro nitondrako azy nivoaka avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta, dia avy tao amin’ ny memy fandrendreham-by, ka nanaovako hoe: Mihainoa ny feoko, ary mankatoava ireny araka izay rehetra andidiako anareo, dia ho oloko ianareo, ary Izaho kosa ho Andriamanitrareo,
5 that I may confirm mine oath, which I sware to your fathers, to give them a land flowing [with] milk and honey, as [it is] this day. Then I answered and said, So be it, O Lord.
Mba hotoviko ny fianianana izay nianianako tamin’ ny razanareo, dia ny hanomezana azy tany tondra-dronono sy tantely tahaka ny amin’ izao anio izao. Dia namaly aho ka nanao hoe: Ho izany tokoa anie, Jehovah ô!
6 And the Lord said to me, Read these words in the cities of Juda, and in the streets of Jerusalem, saying, Hear you the words of this covenant, and do them.
Ary hoy Jehovah tamiko: Torio any an-tanànan’ ny Joda sy any an-dalamben’ i Jerosalema Izany teny rehetra izany, ka lazao hoe: Henoy ny tenin’ izao fanekena izao, ka ankatoavy izy.
7
Fa nananatra mafy ny razanareo Aho tamin’ ny andro nitondrako azy nivoaka avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta ka ambaraka androany; Eny, nifoha maraina koa Aho ka nananatra hoe: Mihainoa ny feoko.
8 But they did [them] not.
Nefa tsy nihaino izy na nanongilana ny sofiny, fa samy nandeha tamin’ ny ditry ny fo ratsiny ihany izy; Ka dia nataoko mihatra aminy ny teny rehetra amin’ izao fanekena izao, ilay nasaiko nataony, nefa tsy nataony.
9 And the Lord said to me, A conspiracy is found amongst the men of Juda, and amongst the dwellers in Jerusalem.
Ary hoy koa Jehovah tamiko: Misy tetika fikomiana hita ao amin’ ny Joda sy amin’ ny mponina any Jerosalema.
10 They are turned [aside] to the iniquities of their fathers that were of old, who would not listen to my words: and, behold, they go after strange gods, to serve them: and the house of Israel and the house of Juda have broken my covenant, which I made with their fathers.
Fa izy niverina nankamin’ ny heloky ny razany, izay tsy nety nihaino ny teniko, ary lasa nanaraka andriamani-kafa izy ka nanompo azy; Ny taranak’ Isiraely sy ny taranak’ i Joda efa nivadika ny fanekeko, izay nataoko tamin’ ny razany.
11 Therefore thus says the Lord, Behold, I bring evils upon this people, out of which they shall not be able to come forth; and they shall presently cry to me, but I will not listen to them.
Koa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Indro, Izaho hahatonga loza aminy, izay tsy azony handosirana; Ary na dia hitaraina amiko aza izy, dia tsy hihaino azy Aho.
12 And the cities of Juda and the dwellers in Jerusalem shall go, and cry to the gods to whom they burn incense; which shall not deliver them in the time of their troubles.
Dia handeha ny tanànan’ ny Joda sy ny mponina any Jerosalema ka hitaraina amin’ ireny andriamaniny, izay efa nandoroany ditin-kazo manitra; Nefa ireny tsy hahavonjy azy akory amin’ ny andro fahoriany.
13 For according to the number of your cities were your gods, O Juda; and according to the number of the streets of Jerusalem have you set up altars to burn incense to Baal.
Fa araka ny isan’ ny tanànanao, ry Joda, no isan’ ny andriamanitrao, Ary araka ny isan’ ny lalamben’ i Jerosalema no isan’ ny alitara naorinareo ho an’ ilay mampahamenatra. Dia alitara handoroana ditin-kazo manitra ho an’ i Bala.
14 And you, pray not for this people, and intercede not for them in supplication and prayer: for I will not hear in the day in which they call upon me, in the day of their affliction.
Koa aza mivavaka ho an’ ity firenena ity ianao, ary aza manandratra fitarainana na fifonana ho azy; Fa amin’ ny andro izay hitarainany amiko noho ny fahoriany dia tsy hihaino azy Aho.
15 Why has [my] beloved wrought abomination in my house? will prayers and holy offerings take away your wickedness from you, or shall you escape by these things?
Hanao inona ao an-tranoko ny malalako fa efa namoron-tsain-dratsy niaraka tamin’ ny maro izy, ary ny hena masìna dia esorina aminao; Raha azon-doza ianao, mifalia ary!
16 The Lord called your name a fair olive tree, of a goodly shade in appearance, at the noise of its being lopped, fire was kindled against it; great is the affliction [coming] upon you: her branches are become good for nothing.
Hazo oliva maitso sady misy voany maha-te-hizaha no nataon’ i Jehovah anaranao; Tamin’ ny fihorakorahana be no nandrehetany afo taminy, ary notapahina ny rantsany.
17 And the Lord that planted you has pronounced evils against you, because of the iniquity of the house of Israel and the house of Juda, whatever they have done against themselves to provoke me to anger by burning incense to Baal.
Fa Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Izay namboly anao, no nanambara ny loza hanjo anao, noho ny ratsy nataon’ ny taranak’ Isiraely sy ny taranak’ i Joda, Izay nahavoa ny tenany ka nahatezitra Ahy. Dia tamin’ ny nandoroany ditin-kazo manitra ho an’ i Bala.
18 O Lord, teach me, and I shall know: then I saw their practices.
Ary nampahafantarin’ i Jehovah aho, ka dia nahalala; Tamin’ izany dia nasehonao ahy ny fanaony.
19 But I as an innocent lamb led to the slaughter, knew not: against me they devised an evil device, saying, Come and let us put wood into his bread, and let us utterly destroy him from off the land of the living, and let his name not be remembered any more.
Fa izaho dia tahaka ny zanak’ ondry bonaika, izay entina hovonoina; Ary tsy fantatro fa izao no tetika nataony namelezany ahy: Aoka hosimbantsika ny hazo mbamin’ ny voany, ary aoka hofongorantsika hiala amin’ ny tanin’ ny velona izy, mba tsy hotsarovana intsony ny anarany.
20 O Lord, that judge righteously, trying the reins and hearts, let me see your vengeance [taken] upon them, for to you I have declared my cause.
Nefa, ry Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro ô, Izay mitsara marina ka mamantatra ny voa sy ny fo aoka ho hitako ny famalianao azy; Fa aminao no efa nanankinako ny adiko.
21 Therefore thus says the Lord concerning the men of Anathoth, that seek my life, that say, You shall not prophesy at all in the name of the Lord, but if you do, you shall die by our hands:
Koa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah ny amin’ ny mponina ao Anatota, izay mitady ny ainao ka manao hoe: Aza maminany amin’ ny anaran’ i Jehovah, fandrao matin’ ny tananay ianao,
22 behold, I will visit them: their young men shall die by the sword; and their sons and their daughters shall die of famine:
izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro: Indro, hovaliako Izy, ka ny zatovo ho fatin-tsabatra, ary ny zananilahy sy ny zananivavy ho fati-mosary;
23 and there shall be no remnant [left] of them; for I will bring evil upon the dwellers in Anathoth, in the year of their visitation.
Ka tsy hisy hiangana izy; Fa hahatonga loza amin’ ny mponina ao Anatota Aho amin’ ny taona hamaliana azy.
