< Jeremiah 11 >

1 The word that came from the Lord to Jeremiah, saying:
Ty tsara nivotrak’ am’ Iirmeà, boak’am’ Iehovà, manao ty hoe:
2 “Listen to the words of this covenant, and speak to the men of Judah and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
Janjiño ty tsara’ ty fañina toy, naho mitaroña am’ ondati’ Iehodào, naho amo mpimone’ Ierosalaimeo;
3 And you shall say to them: Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: Cursed is the man who will not listen to the words of this covenant,
vaho ano ty hoe: Hoe t’Iehovà, t’i Andrianañahare’ Israele: Fatse t’ indaty tsy mañaoñe o tsara’ ty fañina toio,
4 which I commanded to your fathers in the day when I led them away from the land of Egypt, away from the iron furnace, saying: Listen to my voice, and do all that I command you, and then you will be my people and I will be your God.
I nandiliako an-droae’ areo amy andro nampiengako an-tane Mitsraime boak’ an-toñam-biy, ami’ty hoe: Haoño ty feoko, naho anò ze hene andiliako; soa te h’ondatiko nahareo, vaho ho Andrianañahare’ areo iraho;
5 So shall I uphold the oath which I swore to your fathers, that I would give them a land flowing with milk and honey, just as it is this day.” And I answered by saying: “Amen, O Lord.”
hampijadoñeko i fañina natoloko an-droae’ areoy, homeako iareo ty tane orikorehen-dronono naho tantele, ie o henaneo. Le hoe iraho, Amena, ry Iehovà.
6 And the Lord said to me: “Shout all these words in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, saying: Listen to the words of the covenant, and do them.
Le hoe t’Iehovà amako: Hene tseizo amo rova’ Iehodào naho amo lala’ Ierosalaimeo o tsara zao, ty hoe: Mijanjiña o tsara’ i fañinaio, vaho ano!
7 For when testing, I tested your fathers in the day when I led them away from the land of Egypt, even until this day. Rising early, I tested them, and I said: Listen to my voice.
Fa hinatahatako soa o roae’ areoo amy andro nañakarako iareo an-tane’ Mitsraimey, pak’ androany, boa-maraindray te mitolom- pitaroñe ama’ areo ty hoe: Haoño ty feoko.
8 But they did not listen, nor did they incline their ear. Instead, each one of them walked in the depravity of his own evil heart. And so, I brought over them all the words of this covenant, which I instructed them to do. But they would not do them.”
F’ie nañajife avao iereo, tsy nanokilan-dravembia, songa nitsontike ami’ty fanjeharan-tro’e raty; aa le fonga nafetsako am’ iereo o tsara’ ty fañina toio, i nandiliako hanoeñey, f’ie tsy nipaoke.
9 And the Lord said to me: “A conspiracy has been found among the men of Judah and among the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
Le hoe t’Iehovà amako: Zoeñe am’ondati’ Iehodao, naho amo mpimone’Ierosalaimeo ty kinia.
10 They have returned to the former iniquities of their fathers, who refused to listen to my words. And likewise, they have gone after strange gods, so that they may serve them. The house of Israel and the house of Judah have treated as void my covenant, which I made with their fathers.
Ie nibalike mb’amo hakeon-droae’ iareoo avao, ami’ty tsy fañaoñañe o volakoo; vaho nienga hañorike ‘ndrahare ila’e hitoroñe iareo; songa nivalike amy fañina nanoeko aman-droae’ey ty anjomba’ Israele naho ty anjomba’ Iehodà.
11 For this reason, thus says the Lord: Behold, I will lead evils over them, from which they will not be able to escape. And they will cry out to me, and I will not heed them.
Aa le hoe t’Iehovà: Ingo handesako ty raty tsy hahafipoliorañe; aa ndra t’ie hikaikaik’ ahy Izaho tsy hañaoñe.
12 And the cities of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem will go forth, and they will cry out to the gods, to whom they offer libations, and they will not save them in the time of their affliction.
Ie amy zao hiheo mb’eo o rova’ Iehodào naho o mpimone’ Ierosalaimeo hikoikoike amo ‘ndrahare ila’e fañenga’ iareoo; f’ie toe tsy haharombake amy san-kasotriañey.
13 For according to the number of your cities, so were your gods, O Judah. And according to the number of the streets of Jerusalem, so did you establish altars of confusion, altars to offer libations to Baal.
Fa mira ami’ty ia’ o rova’oo o ‘ndrahare’ areoo, ry Iehodà; vaho mifandrae ami’ty ia’ o lalañe e Ierosalaimeo o kitrely natroa’ areo amy raha tivaio, o kitrely fisoroña’ areo amy Baaleo.
14 Therefore, you should not choose to pray for this people, and you should not take up praise and petitioning on their behalf. For I will not heed them in the time of their outcry to me, in the time of their affliction.
Aa le ko mihalaly ho a’ ondaty retoa, naho ko añonjona’o soloho; fa tsy hitsanon-draho amy andro ikaikaiha’ iareo te malovilovy.
15 Why has my beloved wrought great wickedness in my house? How can the holy flesh take away from you your wickedness, in which you have gloried?
Ino ty anoe’ i kokoakoy an-kivohoko ao, kanao nanoa’e hakarapiloañe amy màroy? ie tsy sazo azo i henam-pisoroña’o miavakey? Amy te mampirebek’azo ty manao hatsivokarañe.
16 The Lord has called your name: a beautiful, fruitful, splendid, and productive olive tree. At the voice of a word, a great fire was kindled in it, and its greenery was burned up.
Tinoño’ Iehovà ty hoe ty añara’o, Hatae olive mandrevake, fanjaka am-boa’e, soa vintañe. Am-pikorahan-kotakotake t’ie namiañe afo ama’e, vaho fonga pinozapozake o tsampa’eo.
17 And the Lord of hosts, who planted you, has pronounced an evil against you, concerning the evils of the house of Israel and the house of Judah, which they have done to themselves so as to provoke me, by offering libations to Baal.”
Iehovà’ i Màroy, i nañetsa azoy ty namatse hekoheko ama’o, ty amy hatsivokara’ ty kiboho’ Israeley, naho ty kivoho’ Iehodày, ie fa nifetsak’ama’ iareo ami’ty fanigiha’ iareo ahy amy fisoroña’ iareo amy Baaley.
18 But you, O Lord, have revealed this to me, and I have understood. Then you displayed their efforts to me.
Tinolo’ Iehovà hilala ama’e iraho, vaho nirendreko; naboa’o amako ty sata’ iareo.
19 And I was like a meek lamb, who is being carried to be a victim. And I did not realize that they had devised plans against me, saying: “Let us place wood upon his bread, and let us eradicate him from the land of the living, and let his name no longer be remembered.”
Fe nihoe anak’añondry nitrotrotrotro iraho te nitantalieñe mb’eo ho lentañe; le tsy napotako t’ie nikilily ahy, ami’ty hoe: Antao hamira i hataey rekets’ o voa ama’eo; ie haitoan-tika an-tanen-kaveloñe, tsy ho tiahy ka ty añara’e.
20 But you, O Lord of hosts, who judges justly, and who tests the temperament and the heart, let me see your vengeance against them. For I have revealed my case to you.
O ry Iehovà’ i Màroy, ry mpizaka an-katò, ry mpitsoke ova naho troke, ehe te ho treako ty hañondroha’o am’ iareo; Ihe ro niborahako ty toreoko.
21 “Because of this, thus says the Lord to the men of Anathoth, who are seeking your life, and who are saying: ‘You shall not prophesy in the name of the Lord, and you shall not die by our hands.’
Aa le hoe t’Iehovà ty am’ondaty nte- Anatote mipay ty fiai’o, manao ty hoe: Ko mitoky ami’ty tahina’ Iehovà tsy mone hivetrak’ am-pità’ay.
22 Because of this, thus says the Lord of hosts: Behold, I will visit upon them. Their young men will die by the sword. Their sons and their daughters will die by famine.
le hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy: Toe ho liloveko: hampikoromahem-pibara’ o ajalahio, hampivetrahe’ ty kerè o ana-dahy naho anak’ampela’ iareoo;
23 And there will be nothing left of them. For I will lead an evil over the men of Anathoth: the year of their visitation.”
Toe tsy hapoke sehanga’e, fa hametsahako hankàñe amo nte-Anatoteo: ty taom-pitilihañe iareo.
