Jeremiah 46
1 The word of Jehovah that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning the nations.
Niheo am’Iirmeà, mpitoky ty tsara’ Iehovà ty amo fifeheañeo;
2 Of Egypt: concerning the army of Pharaoh-Necho king of Egypt, which was by the river Euphrates at Carchemish, which Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon smote in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, the king of Judah.
ty amy Mitsraime, i mpirai-lian-dahin-defo’ i Parò-Neko mpanjaka’ i Mitsraimey, ie añolo’ i Saka-Perate e Karkemise ao, le ginio’ i Nebokadnetsare mpanjaka’ i Bavele, amy taom-paha-efa’ Iehoiakime ana’ Iosià mpanjaka’ Iehodày.
3 Make ready buckler and shield, and draw near to battle!
Ihentseño ty fañeba naho ty fikalan-defo, vaho itotoho i hotakotakey.
4 Harness the horses, and mount ye horsemen, and stand forth with helmets; polish the spears, put on the coats of mail!
Aombeo laboridy o soavalao, naho miningira, ry mpiningi-tsoavalao; mijohaña eo reketse kalan-doha; fotìo o lefoñeo, aombeo o sarom-bìo.
5 Why do I see them dismayed, turned away back? And their mighty ones are beaten down, and take to flight, and look not back? Terror [is] on every side, saith Jehovah.
Akore t’ie treako hoe lonjetse naho miamboho? Finofok’ ambane o fanalolahi’eo, fa nitriban-day mb’eo, vaho tsy nitolik’ am-boho, fa niarikatoha’ ty firevendreveñañe, hoe t’Iehovà.
6 Let not the swift flee away, neither let the mighty man escape! — Toward the north, hard by the river Euphrates, they have stumbled and fallen.
Tsy hahafiorotse ty masìka, tsy hahafivoratsake ty fanalolahy; mitsikapy vaho mikorovoke mb’avaratse añe iereo, marine i Saka-Peratey.
7 Who is this [that] riseth up as the Nile, whose waters toss themselves like the rivers?
Ia ty hambañ’am’Ieore mitroatroakey, manahake o saka misorotombake hanginahina’eo?
8 It is Egypt that riseth up as the Nile, and [his] waters toss themselves like the rivers; and he saith, I will rise up, I will cover the earth; I will destroy the city and the inhabitants thereof.
Manahake Ieore t’i Mitsraime amy fitabatroaha’ o rano’eoy; ie manao ty hoe: Hitroatse iraho, hanginahina naho hampiopo ty tane toy, toe harotsako i rovay naho o mpimoneñe ama’eo.
9 Go up, ye horses, and drive furiously, ye chariots; and let the mighty men go forth: Cush and Phut that handle the shield, and the Ludim that handle the bow [and] bend it.
Mionjona ry soavalao, mionara ry sareteo; ampivavaro mb’etoy o fanalolahio, o nte-Kose naho nte-Pote mahafitàm-pikalan-defoñeo, o nte-Lode mahatañe naho mahafibitsoke faleo.
10 For this is the day of the Lord Jehovah of hosts, a day of vengeance, that he may be avenged of his adversaries; and the sword shall devour, and it shall be sated and made drunk with their blood; for the Lord Jehovah of hosts hath a sacrifice in the north country, by the river Euphrates.
Amy te hanañ’ androm-pañondroha’e t’i Talè Iehovà’ i Màroy, hamalea’e fate o rafelahi’eo, hampibotsehañe i fibaray ampara’ te etsake naho mamo ami’ty lio’ iareo; fa manao soroñe t’i Talè, Iehovà’ i Màroy, an-tane avaratse, marine’ i Saka-Peratey.
11 Go up to Gilead, and fetch balm, O virgin-daughter of Egypt! In vain shalt thou multiply remedies: there is no healing for thee.
Mionjona mb’e Gilade mb’eo, mitohà fatevo ry anak’ ampela’ i Mitsraimeo; fonga tsy jefa’e o aoly anoe’oo, toe tsy eo ty hampijangañe azo.
12 The nations have heard of thy shame, and thy cry hath filled the earth; for the mighty man stumbleth against the mighty, they are both fallen together.
Fa jinanji’ o kilakila’ ndatio ty fisalara’o, vaho manitsike ty tane toy ty fikoikoiha’o, fa nitsikapy amy maozatsey ty fanalolahy, sindre nihotrake.
13 The word that Jehovah spoke to Jeremiah the prophet, concerning the coming of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon to smite the land of Egypt:
Ty tsara’ Iehovà am’ Iirmeà mpitoky, te hanao akore ty hionjona’ i Nebokadnetsare mpanjaka’ i Bavele mb’an-tane Mitsraime mb’eo handafa aze?
14 Declare in Egypt, and publish in Migdol, and publish in Noph, and in Tahpanhes; say, Stand fast, and prepare thee; for the sword devoureth round about thee.
Tseizo’ areo e Mitsraime ao, koiho e Migdole, koiho-lava e Nofe naho e Tafanese, vaho ano ty hoe: Mijohaña vaho mihentseña fa hampibotsek’ añ’ariary azo i fibaray.
15 Why are thy valiants swept away? They stood not, for Jehovah did thrust them down.
Akore te nafaoke añe o maoza’oo? Ie tsy nahafitroatse amy te tinindri’ Iehovà ambane.
16 He made many to stumble, yea, one fell upon another; and they said, Arise, and let us return to our own people and to the land of our nativity, from the oppressing sword.
Maro ty tsinikapi’e; eka songa mifampikorovoke vaho manao ty hoe: Miongaha, antao himpoly mb’am’ondatin-tika mb’eo, mb’an-tane nahatoly an-tikañe añe, hienga ty fijoia’ i fibaray.
17 There did they cry, Pharaoh king of Egypt is but a noise; he hath let the time appointed go by.
Ty hoe ty nikoihe’ iereo añe: Koràk’ avao t’i Parò mpanjaka’ i Mitsraime; Napo’e hihelañe añe i ni-fantañañey.
18 [As] I live, saith the King, whose name is Jehovah of hosts, surely as Tabor among the mountains, and as Carmel by the sea, so shall he come.
Kanao velon-dRaho hoe i Mpanjakay, Iehovà’ i Màroy ty tahina’e, Toe hanahak’ i Tabore am-bohitsey naho i Karmele añ’olon-driake añe, Ty higodaña’e mb’etoy.
19 Thou, inhabitress, daughter of Egypt, furnish for thyself a captive's baggage, for Noph shall be a desolation and shall be ruined, so that none shall dwell therein.
O ry anak’ampela mpimoneñe e Mitsraime ao, mivatia handenà’o mb’am-pandrohizañe añe, fa ho tanàn-taolo ty Nofe, hampangoakoaheñe tsy ho amam-pimoneñe.
20 Egypt is a very fair heifer; the gad-fly cometh, it cometh from the north.
Kiloa fanjaka t’i Mitsraime fe boak’ avaratse añe ty lale-boròñe hamongotse—toe ho avy.
21 Also her hired men in the midst of her are like fatted bullocks; for they also have turned back, they have fled away together, they did not stand; for the day of their calamity is come upon them, the time of their visitation.
Manahake ty sarak’ an-jolok’ ao, o lahin-defo mpikarama añivo’eo, fa nivalike ka iereo; niharo nibotatsake, tsy nahafijohañe, fa tondroke ty andron-kankà’ iareo, ty androm-pitilihañe iareo.
22 Her voice shall go like a serpent's; for they shall march with an army, and come against her with axes, as hewers of wood.
Hoe mereñe ty fikosasaha’e ie misoroke o lahindefo’eo, mikovovoke mb’am-pisorohañ’aze o lahindefoñeo, ie mitoañ’ aze am-pekoñe hoe mpañatsak’ ala.
23 They shall cut down her forest, saith Jehovah, though it be impenetrable; for they are more than the locusts, and are innumerable.
Hinatsa’ iareo i alay, hoe t’Iehovà, fa tsy lefe volilieñe; amy t’ie maro te amo valalao, mitozantozañe.
24 The daughter of Egypt is put to shame; she is delivered into the hand of the people of the north.
Nisalareñe ty anak’ ampela’ i Mitsraime; fa natolotse am-pità’ ondaty avaratse añe.
25 Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel, saith, Behold, I will punish Amon of No, and Pharaoh, and Egypt, and her gods, and her kings; yea, Pharaoh and them that confide in him.
Hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy, t’i Andrianañahare’ Israrele, Ho liloveko t’i Amone nte-No naho i Parò, naho i Mitsraime, rekets’ o ‘ndrahare’eo, naho o mpanjaka’eo; toe i Parò naho ze miato ama’e.
26 And I will give them into the hand of those that seek their life, and into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of his servants; but afterwards it shall be inhabited, as in the days of old, saith Jehovah.
Hatoloko am-pità’ o mipay ty fiai’eo naho am-pità’ i Nebokadnetsare mpanjaka’ i Bavele naho am-pità’ o mpitoro’eo; ie añe, le ho fimoneñañe indraike re manahake te taolo, hoe t’Iehovà.
27 But thou, my servant Jacob, fear not, neither be dismayed, Israel: for behold, I will save thee from afar, and thy seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and be in rest and at ease, and none shall make [him] afraid.
Aa le ko hemban-drehe ry Iakobe mpitoroko, naho ko lonjetse ry Israele; fa ho rombaheko boake tsietoitane añe, naho ty tiri’o an-tanem-pandrohiza’ iareo; himpoly t’Iakobe, naho hierañerañe, le tsy eo ty hañembañe aze ka.
28 Fear thou not, my servant Jacob, saith Jehovah: for I am with thee; for I will make a full end of all the nations whither I have driven thee, but I will not make a full end of thee; but I will correct thee with judgment, and I will not hold thee altogether guiltless.
Ko hemban-drehe ry Iakobe mpitoroko, hoe t’Iehovà, fa mpiama’o iraho; ho fonga mongoreko o fifeheañe nandroahako azoo, f’ihe tsy ho mongoreko; ho liloveko an-jaka-to, fe tsy hapoko tsy ho liloveñe.
