< Jeremiah 50 >

1 The word that the Lord hath spoken against Babylon, and against the land of the Chaldeans in the hand of Jeremias the prophet.
Ty entañe nitsarae’ Iehovà ty amy Bavele, tane’ o nte-Kasdioy, añam’ Iirmeà mpitoky.
2 Declare ye among the nations, and publish it, lift up a standard: proclaim, and conceal it not: say: Babylon is taken, Bel is confounded, Merodach is overthrown, their graven things are confounded, their idols are overthrown.
Taroño amo kilakila’ ndatio, tseizo; añonjono vorovoro, koiho vaho ko ampikafireñe ty hoe: Tinavañe ty Bavele, salatse t’i Bele, lonjetse ty Merodake; songa nampisalareñe o saren-drahare’eo, dinemoke o hazomanga’eo.
3 For a nation is come up against her out of the north, which shall make her land desolate: and there shall be none to dwell therein, from man even to beast: yea they are removed, and gone away.
Amy te boak’ avaratse añe ty fifeheañe haname aze, ty hampangoakoake i tane’ey, ampara t’ie tsy amam-pimoneñe; fonga nañariok’ añe ndra ondaty ndra hare.
4 In those days, and at that time, saith the Lord, the children of Israel shall come, they and the children of Juda together: going and weeping they shall make haste, and shall seek the Lord their God.
Amy andro zay, naho amy sa zay, hoe t’Iehovà, le homb’ atoy o ana’ Israeleo, ie naho o ana’ Iehodao, hangololoike ty rovetse te mañavelo, vaho ho tsoehe’ iereo t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ iareo.
5 They shall ask the way to Sion, their faces are hitherward. They shall come, and shall be joined to the Lord by an everlasting covenant, which shall never be forgotten.
Hañontanea’ iareo ty lalañe mb’e Tsione mb’eo, naho hampiatrefe’iareo laharañe; Homb’eo iereo hireketse am’ Iehovà ami’ty fañina tsy modo nainai’e, tsy ho haliño.
6 My people have been a lost flock, their shepherds have caused them to go astray, and have made them wander in the mountains: they have gone from mountain to hill, they have forgotten their resting place.
Fa añondry motso ondatikoo; nampandrifihe’ o mpiara’ iareoo; nampidadà’ iereo amo haboañeo; nirererere am-bohitse pak’ an-kaboañe, nandikofa’ iareo ty fitofà’ iareo.
7 All that found them, have devoured them: and their enemies said: We have not sinned in so doing: because they have sinned against the Lord the beauty of justice, and against the Lord the hope of their fathers.
Fonga nampibotseke iareo ze nifanendrek’ ama’e; le nanao ty hoe o malaiñ’ iareoo: Tsy aman-kakeo zahay; amy t’ie ro nandilatse am’ Iehovà, fimoneñan-kavantañañey, am’ Iehovà fitaman-droae’iareo.
8 Remove out of the midst of Babylon, and go forth out of the land of the Chaldeans: and be ye as kids at the head of the flock.
Miridriha boake Bavele ao, naho iakaro ty tane o nte-Kasdio, vaho itsikombeo ty oselahy miaolo’ i lia-rai’ey.
9 For behold I raise up, and will bring against Babylon an assembly of great nations from the land of the north: and they shall be prepared against her, and from thence she shall be taken: their arrows, like those of a mighty man, a destroyer, shall not return in vain.
Inao! ho troboeko hionjoñe hiatrek’ i Bavele ty firimboñam-pifeheañe ra’elahy boak’ an-tane avaratse añe; miriritse ama’e iereo, le ho tavaneñe amy zao; hanahake o amy fanalolahy mahimbañeo o anam-pale’iareoo, tsy ama’e ty himpoly mañomaño;
10 And Chaldea shall be made a prey: all that waste her shall be filled, saith the Lord.
Ho kopaheñe t’i Kasdy; hahaeneñe ze hene mamaok’ ama’e; hoe t’Iehovà:
11 Because you rejoice, and speak great things, pillaging my inheritance: because you are spread abroad as calves upon the grass, and have bellowed as bulls.
Ty hafalea’areo, naho ty firebeha’areo: ry mpampikopake i lovakoio, ty fitrekoa’areo le hoe tamana añ’ahetse, vaho misehaseha hoe soavala mirefe;
12 Your mother is confounded exceedingly, and she that bore you is made even with the dust: behold she shall be the last among the nations, a wilderness unpassable, and dry.
Hangirifiry ty fisalaran-drene’o, ho meñatse i nahatoly azoy; ho tsitso’ o fifeheañeo, fatram-bey, tane karakankaiñe vaho liolio.
13 Because of the wrath of the Lord it shall not be inhabited, but shall be wholly desolate: every one that shall pass by Babylon, shall be astonished, and hiss at all her plagues.
Ami’ty haviñera’ Iehovà le tsy himoneñañe, fa ho vata’e bangìñe; ho latsa iaby ze miary amy Bavele, hikosàke amo hekoheko’e iabio.
14 Prepare yourselves against Babylon round about, all you that bend the bow: fight against her, spare not arrows: because she hath sinned against the Lord.
Ampiririto hialy amy Bavele añ’ariari’e eo ry mahatam-paleo, ahiririño, ko manisa ana-pale; amy te anaña’ Iehovà tahiñe.
15 Shout against her, she hath every where given her hand, her foundations are fallen, her walls are thrown down, for it is the vengeance of the Lord. Take vengeance upon her: as she hath done, so do to her.
Mirohafa añ’arikatoke aze, fa miambane re; mihotrake o faha’eo, rebake o kijoli’eo; izay ty fañondroha’ Iehovà, Mamalea fate! hambañe amy nanoe’ey ty hanoañe ama’e.
16 Destroy the sower out of Babylon, and him that holdeth the sickle in the time of harvest: for fear of the sword of the dove every man shall return to his people, and every one shall flee to his own land.
Aitò amy Bavele ty mpandrarake, naho i mpita-meso am-pitatahañey, ie ihembaña’e ty fibaram-panindry, songa hitolike mb’am’ondati’eo, sindre handripake mb’an-tane’e mb’eo.
17 Israel is a scattered flock, the lions have driven him away: first the king of Assyria devoured him: and last this Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon hath broken his bones.
Añondry miparaitake t’Israele, niroahe’ o lionao añe; Ty valoha’e nampibotsek’ aze, i mpanjaka’ i Asorey naho ami’ty figado’e toy t’i Nebokadnetsare mpanjaka’ i Bavele ro nampipekañe o taola’eo.
18 Therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Behold I will visit the king of Babylon and his land, as I have visited the king of Assyria.
Aa le hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy, t’i Andrianañahare’ Israele: Inao! ho liloveko ty mpanjaka’ i Bavele naho i tane’ey, manahake ty nandilovako i mpanjaka’ i Asorey.
19 And I will bring Israel again to his habitation: and he shall feed on Carmel, and Bason, and his soul shall be satisfied in mount Ephraim, and Galaad.
Le hampoliko mb’am-piandraza’e mb’eo t’Israele, hihinañe e Karmele naho e Basane ao, vaho hahaeneñe ty tro’e ty an-kaboa’ i Efraime naho i Gilade.
20 In those days, and at that time, saith the Lord, the iniquity of Israel shall be sought for, and there shall be none: and the sin of Juda, and there shall none be found: for I will be merciful to them, whom I shall leave.
Amy andro rezay naho amy sa zay, hoe t’Iehovà, ho kodebèñe ty hakeo’ Israele fe tsy ho eo, naho ty tahi’ Iehodà, fa tsy hahaoniñe; amy te ho hahàko ty hakeo’ o napoko ho sehanga’eo.
21 Go up against the land of the rulers, and punish the inhabitants thereof, waste, and destroy all behind them, saith the Lord: and do according to all that I have commanded thee.
Mionjona mb’an-tane’ Merataime, atreatréo, naho o mpimoneñe e Pekodeo, mongoro, vata’e rotsaho, hoe t’Iehovà, ano iaby o nandiliako azoo.
22 A noise of war in the land, and a great destruction.
Inao, ty hotakotak’ amy taney, naho ty fandrotsaham-bey.
23 How is the hammer of the whole earth broken, and destroyed! how is Babylon turned into a desert among the nations!
Akore te finira naho pinozake ty ana-bato’ ty tane toy! Akore te nampangoakoaheñe añivo’ o fifeheañeo ty Bavele!
24 I have caused thee to fall into a snare, and thou art taken, O Babylon, and thou wast not aware of it: thou art found and caught, because thou hast provoked the Lord.
Ie nandaharako fandrike, toe tsinepake ka, ry Bavele, fe tsy napota’o; nivazohoen-drehe vaho nitratse, amy te ihe nifangatotse am’ Iehovà.
25 The Lord hath opened his armoury, and hath brought forth the weapons of his wrath: for the Lord the God of hosts hath a work to be done in the land of the Chaldeans.
Fa sinoka’ Iehovà ty fañaja’e, vaho nakare’e o fialian-kaviñera’eo; ty fitoloñañe tsy mete tsy anoe’ i Talè, Iehovà, an-tane o nte-Kasdio.
26 Come ye against her from the uttermost borders: open that they may go forth that shall tread her down: take the stones out of the way, and make heaps, and destroy her: and let nothing of her be left.
Itameo boak’an-tsietoitane añe, sokafo o riha’eo, atontono mañambone kivo­tre kivotre, vaho rotsaho; ko anisa’o ndra inoñe.
27 Destroy all her valiant men, let them go down to the slaughter: woe to them, for their day is come, the time of their visitation.
Fonga lentao o vosi’eo, ampizotsò mb’am-panjamanañe ao; feh’ ohatse ama’e! fa tondroke ty andro’ iareo, ty androm-pandilovañe.
28 The voice of them that flee, and of them that have escaped out of the land of Babylon: to declare in Sion the revenge of the Lord our God, the revenge of his temple.
Inay! ty feom-pipiliotse naho o nandrifitse boak’an-tane Baveleo, hitsey e Tsione ao ty fañondroha’ Iehovà Andrianañaharentika, i vale-fate’e ty amy anjomba’eiy.
29 Declare to many against Babylon, to all that bend the bow: stand together against her round about, and let nose escape; pay her according to her work: according to all that she hath done, do ye to her: for she hath lifted up herself against the Lord, against the Holy One of Israel.
Koiho hifanontone hiatreke i Bavele o mpitàm-paleo, o mampibitsoke fale iabio; mitobea añ’arikatoke aze; ko ado’ areo te ho eo ty hiborofotse; ondroho ty amo sata’eo, avaleo ama’e o fonga fitoloña’eo, fa nirengevohe’e t’Iehovà, i Masi’ Israeley.
30 Therefore shall her young men fall in her streets: and all her men of war shall hold their peace in that day, saith the Lord.
Aa le hikorovok’ an-tameañe eo o ajalahi’eo, songa hampianjiñeñe amy andro zay o lahin-defo’eo, hoe t’Iehovà.
31 Behold I come against thee, O proud one, saith the Lord the God of hosts: for thy day is come, the time of thy visitation.
Inao! miatre azo raho ty mpitoabotse tia, hoe t’i Talè, Iehovà’ i Màroy; fa tondroke ty andro’o, ty namotoañako handilo azo.
32 And the proud one shall fall, he shall fall down, and there shall be none to lift him up: and I will kindle a fire in his cities, and it shall devour all round about him.
Hitsikapy naho hikorovoke i loho mpiroharohay, tsy ho amam-pañongake; le ho viañeko afo o rova’eo, vaho ho forototoe’e o faripari’e iabio.
33 Thus saith the Lord of hosts: The children of Israel, and the children of Juda are oppressed together: all that have taken them captives, hold them fast, they will not let them go.
Hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy, naharo forekekeñe o ana’ Israeleo naho o nte-Iehodao; fa tinambozò’ o nitsepak’ iareo, nifoneña’ iareo tsy hamotsots’ iareo.
34 Their redeemer is strong, the Lord of hosts is his name: he will defend their cause in judgment, to terrify the land, and to disquiet the inhabitants of Babylon.
Maozatse ty Mpijeba’ iareo, Iehovà’ i Màroy ty tahina’e, ho henefa’e ty fisalala’ iareo, hampitofa’e i taney, vaho ho troboe’e o mpimone’ i Baveleo.
35 A sword is upon the Chaldeans, saith the Lord, and upon the inhabitants of Babylon, and upon her princes, and upon her wise men.
hoe t’Iehovà Hebae’ ty fibara o nte-Kasdio, naho o mpimone’ i Baveleo, naho o roandria’eo, vaho o mahihi’eo.
36 A sword upon her diviners, and they shall be foolish: a sword upon her valiant ones, and they shall be dismayed.
Ohare’ ty fibara o mpandañitseo, hampidagolàñe iareo; Hebaem-bi-lava o fanalolahio, hampidemòhañe iareo.
37 A sword upon their horses, and upon their chariots, and upon all the people that are in the midst of her: and they shall become as women: a sword upon her treasures, and they shall be made a spoil.
Ho amo soavala’ iareoo ty fibara, naho amo sarete’eo, naho amo ambahiny iaby añivo’ iareoo, fa hanahake ty rakemba iereo; amo vara’eo ty meso-lava, vaho ho voloseñe.
38 A drought upon her waters, and they shall be dried up: because it is a land of idols, and they glory in monstrous things.
Hafaosa amo rano’eo, fa ho riteñe, amy t’ie tanen-tsamposampon-draha, vaho renge’ iareo o irevendreveña’ iareoo.
39 Therefore shall dragons dwell there with the fig fauns: and ostriches shall dwell therein, and it shall be no more inhabited for ever, neither shall it be built up from generation to generation.
Aa le hitrao-pitobok’ ao ty fosa naho ty farasy, hiantraño ao ka o voron-tsatrañeo; le tsy ho fimoneñañe kitro-katroke, tsy hañialoañe mb’an-tariratse an-tamingañe.
40 As the Lord overthrew Sodom and Gomorrha, and their neighbour cities, saith the Lord: no man shall dwell there, neither shall the son of man inhabit it.
Ho hambañe amy nandrotsahan’ Añahare i Sedome naho i Amorà vaho o mañohoke iareoo, hoe t’Iehovà; tsy himoneña’ ondaty, tsy hañialoa’ ty ana’ ondaty.
41 Behold a people cometh from the north, and a great nation, and many kings shall rise from the ends of the earth.
Inao! hitotsake boak’ avaratse añe ondatio, fifeheañe jabajaba naho mpanjaka maro ty ho troboeñe boak’an-tsietoitane añe.
42 They shall take the bow and the shield: they are cruel and unmerciful: their voice shall roar like the sea, and they shall ride upon horses: like a man prepared for battle against thee, O daughter of Babylon.
Vontitire’ iereo ty fale naho ty lefoñe, mpampisoañe tsy miferenaiñe; mitroñe hoe i riakey ty feo’ iareo, mijon-tsoavala; miriritse hoe ondaty hihotakotake, ama’o ry anak’ ampela’ i Bavele.
43 The king of Babylon hath heard the report of them, and his hands are grown feeble: anguish hath taken hold of him, pangs as a, woman in labour.
Fa jinanji’ ty mpanjaka’ i Bavele ty talily iareo, vaho migebañe o fità’eo; namihiñ’aze ty halonjerañe, ty fanaintaiñan-ampela mitsongo.
44 Behold he shall come up like a lion from the swelling of the Jordan to the strong and beautiful: for I will make him run suddenly upon her: and who shall be the chosen one whom I may appoint over her? for who is like to me? and who shall bear up against me? and who is that shepherd that can withstand my countenance?
Inao! eo ty hionjoñe hoe liona boak’amo rongo-matahe’ Iordaneo mb’an-goloboñe mifahetse mb’eo; f’ie ho roaheko amy zao, vaho ho tendrèko hamehe aze ze joboñeko; fa ia ty rahambako? Ia ty hamotoañ’ andro ho ahy? Le ia ty mpiarake hahafiatrek’ ahiko?
45 Therefore hear ye the counsel of the Lord, which he hath taken against Babylon: and his thoughts which he hath thought against the land of the Chaldeans: surely the little ones of the flocks shall pull them down, of a truth their habitation shall be destroyed with them.
Aa le mahajanjiña ty safiri’ Iehovà nisafirie’e i Bavele, naho ty ereñere niereñere’e i tane’ o nte-Kasdioy; toe ho kozozote’e mb’eo ndra ty kede amy lia-rai’ey, hampangoakoahe’e ty am’iereo i fiandraza’ iareoy.
46 At the noise of the taking of Babylon the earth is moved, and the cry is heard amongst the nations.
Hampirihindrihie’ i Taney ty koike manao ty hoe: Fa rinambe ty Bavele; vaho ho janjiñeñe amo fifeheañeo ty fikoaihañe.
