< Jeremias 42 >

1 THE WORD THAT CAME TO JEREMIAS from the Lord in the days of Joakim, king of Juda, saying,
Ary ny mpifehy ny miaramila rehetra sy Johanana, zanak’ i Karea, sy Jazania, zanak’ i Hosaia, mbamin’ ny vahoaka rehetra, na kely na lehibe, dia nanatona
2 Go to the house of the Archabin, and you shall bring them to the house of the Lord, into one of the courts, and give them wine to drink.
ka niteny tamin’ i Jeremia mpaminany hoe: Masìna ianao, aoka hoborahina eto anatrehanao ny fifonanay, ary mba ivavaho amin’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao re izahay, dia ireto sisa rehetra ireto (fa vitsy izahay no sisa, na dia maro aza fahiny, dia araka izao hitan’ ny masonao izao),
3 So I brought forth Jechonias the son of Jeremin the son of Chabasin, and his brethren, and his sons, and all the family of the Archabin;
mba hambaran’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao anay izay lalana mety halehanay sy izay zavatra tokony hataonay.
4 and I brought them into the house of the Lord, into the chamber of the sons of Joanan, the son of Ananias, the son of Godolias, a man of God, who dwells near the house of the princes that are over the house of Maasaeas the son of Selom, who kept the court.
Dia hoy Jeremia mpaminany taminy: Efa reko izany; koa, indro, hivavaka amin’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrareo ary aho araka ny teninareo; ary ny teny rehetra Izay havalin’ i Jehovah anareo dia hambarako anareo, fa tsy hisy hafeniko.
5 And I set before them a jar of wine, and cups, and I said, Drink you wine.
Dia hoy izy tamin’ i Jeremia: Jehovah no aoka ho vavolombelona marina sy mahatoky amintsika, raha tsy manao araka ny teny rehetra izay anirahan’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao anao aminay izahay.
6 But they said, We will on no account drink wine, for our father Jonadab the son of Rechab commanded us, saying, You shall on no account drink wine, [neither] you, nor your sons for ever:
Na ho soa, na ho ratsy, dia hohenoinay ny feon’ i Jehovah Andriamanitray, izay nanirahanay anao, mba hahasoa anay, raha mihaino ny feon’ i Jehovah Andriamanitray izahay.
7 nor shall you at all build houses, nor sow any seed, nor shall you have a vineyard: for you shall dwell in tents all your days; that you may live many days upon the land, in which you sojourn.
Ary nony afaka hafoloana, dia tonga tamin’ i Jeremia ny tenin’ i Jehovah.
8 And we listened to the voice of Jonadab our father, so as to drink no wine all our days, we, and our wives, and our sons, and our daughters;
Ary izy niantso an’ i Johanana, zanak’ i Karea, sy ny mpifehy ny miaramila rehetra izay teo aminy mbamin’ ny olona rehetra, na kely na lehibe,
9 and so as to build no houses to dwell in: and we have had no vineyard, nor field, nor seed:
ka nanao taminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, Izay efa nanirahanareo ahy mba hoborahiko eo anatrehany ny fifonanareo:
10 but we have lived in tents, and have listened, and done according to all that Jonadab our father commanded us.
Raha mbola honina amin’ ity tany ity ihany ianareo, dia haoriko ianareo, fa tsy horavako, ary hamboleko ianareo, fa tsy hongotako, fa manenina Aho ny amin’ ny loza namelezako anareo.
11 And it came to pass, when Nabuchodonosor came up against the land, that we said we would come in; and we entered into Jerusalem, for fear of the host of the Chaldeans, and for fear of the host of the Assyrians: and we lived there.
Aza matahotra ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona izay atahoranareo; eny, aza matahotra azy, hoy Jehovah, fa momba anareo Aho hamonjy sy hanafaka anareo amin’ ny tànany.
12 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
Ary hataoko mahita famindram-po ianareo, dia hamindra fo aminareo izy ka hampody anareo ho any amin’ ny taninareo.
13 Thus says the Lord, Go, and say to the men of Juda, and to them that dwell in Jerusalem, Will you not receive correction to listen to my words?
Fa raha hoy kosa ianareo: Tsy honina amin’ ity tany ity izahay, ka tsy hihaino ny feon’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrareo ianareo,
14 The sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have kept the word which he commanded his children, that they should drink no wine; and they have not drunk [it]: but I spoke to you early, and you listened not.
fa manao hoe: Tsia; fa hankany amin’ ny tany Egypta izahay, fa any no tsy hahitanay ady, na handrenesanay ny feon’ ny anjomara na hahitanay mosary, ka dia any no honenanay,
15 And I sent to you my servants the prophets, saying, Turn you every one from his evil way, and amend your practices, and go not after other gods to serve them, and you shall dwell upon the land which I gave to you and to your fathers: but you inclined not your ears, and listened not.
dia mihainoa ny tenin’ i Jehovah ankehitriny ianareo izay sisa amin’ ny Joda: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah. Tompon’ ny maro, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely: Raha dia mikiry hankany Egypta ihany ianareo ka mandeha hivahiny any,
16 But the sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have kept the command of their father; but this people has not listened to me.
dia hahatratra anareo any amin’ ny tany Egypta ny sabatra izay atahoranareo, ary ny mosary izay ahinareo no hanjohy anareo any amin’ ny tany Egypta, ary any no hahafaty anareo.
17 Therefore thus says the Lord; Behold, I [will] bring upon Juda and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem all the evils which I pronounced against them.
Ary ny olona rehetra izay mikiry hankany Egypta hivahiny any dia ho fatin’ ny sabatra sy ny mosary ary ny areti-mandringana any; ary tsy hisy sisa ho afa-mandositra ny loza izay hataoko mihatra aminy.
18 Therefore thus says the Lord; Since the sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have listened to the command of their father, to do as their father commanded them:
Fa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely: Toy ny nanidinana ny fahatezerako sy ny fahavinirako tamin’ ny mponina any Jerosalema, dia toy izany no hanidinana ny fahatezerako aminareo, raha mankany Egypta ianareo; ary ho fianianana sy ho figagana sy ho fanozonana ary ho fandatsa ianareo, sady tsy hahita ity tany ity intsony.
19 there shall never be lacking a man of the sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab to stand before my face while the earth remains.
Jehovah efa nilaza ny aminareo, ry sisa amin’ ny Joda, hoe: Aza mankany Egypta ianareo; aoka ho fantatrareo tokoa fa efa nanariko androany ianareo.
Kanjo efa nivily ianareo ka nahavoa ny ainareo tamin’ ny nanirahanareo ahy ho amin’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrareo hanao hoe: Mba ivavaho amin’ i Jehovah Andriamanitsika re izahay, ary izay rehetra holazain’ i Jehovah Andriamanitsika dia ambarao aminay, fa hataonay.
Ary efa nambarako taminareo androany; nefa tsy nihaino ny feon’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrareo ianareo ny amin’ izay zavatra nanirahany ahy ho aminareo.
Koa aoka ho fantatrareo marimarina fa ho fatin-tsabatra sy mosary ary areti-mandringana ianareo any amin’ ny tany izay tianareo hivahiniana.
