Lamentations 1
1 And it came to pass, after Israel was taken captive, and Jerusalem made desolate, [that] Jeremias sat weeping, and lamented [with] this lamentation over Jerusalem, and said, ALEPH. How does the city that was filled with people sit solitary! she is become as a widow: she that was magnified among the nations, [and] princess among the provinces, has become tributary.
Akore ty habangìñem-pitoboha’ o rova nilifots’ ondatio! Heheke te hoe ramavoiñe henaneo, ie nijabajaba amo fifeheañeo! Ie nianak’ampelam-panjaka añivo’ o faritseo le fa forekekeñe henane zao.
2 BETH. She weeps sore in the night, and her tears are on her cheeks; and there is none of all her lovers to comfort her: all that were her friends have dealt deceitfully with her, they are become her enemies.
Mafaitse ty fangoihoia’e te haleñe; ranomaso avao ty am-pifi’eo; ie añivo’ o fonga sakeza’eo ro po-mpañohò; sindre namitak’ate aze o rañe’eo songa rafelahi’e henaneo.
3 GIMEL. Judea is gone into captivity by reason of her affliction, and by reason of the abundance of her servitude: she dwells among the nations, she has not found rest: all her pursuers have overtaken her between her oppressors.
Nasese an-kaloviloviañe t’Iehodà, naho ampañondevozañe losotse; amo kilakila ondatio ty imoneña’e henane zao, tsy mahaisake fitofañe; fa nahatratse aze iaby o mpañoridañ’ azeo, añivo’ o halovilovia’eo.
4 DALETH. The ways of Sion mourn, because there are none that come to the feast: all her gates are ruined: her priests groan, her virgins are led captive, and she is in bitterness in herself.
Hene mandala o lala’ i Tsioneo amy te tsy ama’e ty mamonje o sabadidake namantañañeo; songa vahiny o lalam-bei’eo, miselekaiñ’ avao o mpisoro’eo; mihontoke o somondrara’eo, fa finaha manahin-ka.
5 HE. Her oppressors are become the head, and her enemies have prospered; for the Lord has afflicted her because of the multitude of her sins: her young children are gone into captivity before the face of the oppressor.
Fa nanoeñe talè’e henaneo o rafelahi’eo, miraorao henane zao o malaiñe azeo, f’ie nampisotrie’ Iehovà ty amo fiolà’e tsifotofotoo; fa nasese mb’an-drohy mb’eo aolo’ o rafelahi’eo o keleia’eo.
6 VAU. And all her beauty has been taken away from the daughter of Sion: her princes were as rams finding no pasture, and are gone [away] in weakness before the face of the pursuer.
Fonga napo’ i anak’ampela’ i Tsioney ty volonahe’e; ie hoe bakaralahy, tsy manjo fiandrazañe o roandria’eo; nibotafotse po-kaozarañe aolo’ i mpañoridañey.
7 ZAIN. Jerusalem remembered the days of her affliction, and her rejection; [she thought on] all her desirable things which were from the days of old, when her people fell into the hands of the oppressor, and there was none to help her: when her enemies saw [it] they laughed at her habitation.
Tiahi’ Ierosalaime, ze hene vara’e añ’andro taolo, ie nisotry naho nirererere, ie mijoñe am-pitan-drafelahi’e ao, ie pitsom-pañolotse, vaho nisamba i fihotraha’ey o malaiñ’azeo, nikizake i harotsaha’ey.
8 HETH. Jerusalem has sinned a [great] sin; therefore has she come into tribulation, all that used to honor her have afflicted her, for they have seen her shame: yes, she herself groaned, and turned backward.
Niota faly t’Ierosalaime, aa le ìnjen-dre henaneo; mavoe’ o niasy aze iabio, fa niisa’ iareo ty fimeñara’e; miselekain-dre vaho miamboho.
9 TETH. Her uncleanness is before her feet; she remembered not her last end; she has lowered her boasting [tone], there is none to comfort her. Behold, O Lord, my affliction: for the enemy has magnified himself.
An-tsiki’e leny ao ty haleora’e; tsy hinao’e t’ie ho figadoña’e; nahalatsa ty nihotraha’e, ie tsy amam-pañohò. O ry Iehovà, vazohò ty fisotriako, ie ireñeta’ ty rafelahy!
10 JOD. The oppressor has stretched out his hand on all her desirable things: for she has seen the Gentiles entering into her sanctuary, [concerning] whom you did command that they should not enter into your congregation.
Fa natorakitsi’ o mpalaiñe azeo ambone’ o vara’e iabio o fità’eo; niisa’e iaby ty fipoñafa’ o kilakila’ ndatio i toe’e miavakey, o nirarà’o tsy himoake am-pivori’oo.
11 CHAPH. All her people groan, seeking bread: they have given their desirable things for meat, to restore their soul: behold, Lord, and look; for she is become dishonored.
Songa mitoreo ondati’eo, mitsoeke mofo; natsalo’ iareo mahakama ty vara’ iareo ho famelomam-piaiñe. Vazoho ry Iehovà, mahaoniña ty tsy fanjofahako henaneo.
12 LAMED. All you that pass by the way, turn, and see if there is sorrow like to my sorrow, which has happened [to me]. The Lord who spoke by me has afflicted me in the day of his fierce anger.
Tsy ahoa’ areo hao zao, ry mpiary mb’eo? Paiao naho oniño, he ao ty hontoke manahake o fihontoke nafetsak’ amakoo, ie naretsa’ Iehovà amako amy andron-kaviñera’e miforoforo zao.
13 MEM. He has sent fire from his lofty habitation, he has brought it into my bones: he has spread a net for my feet, he has turned me back: he has made me desolate [and] mourning all the day.
Nampihitrifa’e afo boak’ andikerañey, le niteveke lalek’ an-taolako ao; nandafiha’e harato o tombokoo; nampolie’e mb’eo naho nenga’e fiain-drifi’e, vaho mitoirañe lomoñandro iraho.
14 NUN. He has watched over my sins, they are twined about my hands, they have come up on my neck: my strength has failed; for the Lord has laid pains on my hands, I shall not be able to stand.
Hoe vinahotse an-joka o fiolàkoo, mirohy am-pità’eo, mivandibanditse pak’am-bozoko eo; mampinike ty haozarako; natolo’ i Talè am-pita’ o tsy lefeko ijohañañeo.
15 SAMECH. The Lord has cut off all my strong men from the midst of me: he has summoned against me a time for crushing my choice men: the Lord has trodden a wine-press for the virgin daughter of Juda: for these things I weep.
Hene naforintse’ i Talè o lahindefoko añivoo; nitaroñe’e amako ty andro ho demohe’e o ajalahikoo; fa linialia’ i Talè hoe am-pipiritan-divay i anak-ampela mieha’ Iehodày.
16 AIN. Mine eye has poured out water, because he that should comfort me, that should restore my soul, has been removed far from me: my sons have been destroyed, because the enemy has prevailed.
Rovetako i raha rezay; midoandoan-drano-maso avao o masokoo; fa lavits’ahy ty mpañohò, ty hampitsekake ty fahavaniako; bangiñe o anakoo, ty amy nandreketa’ i rafelahiy.
17 PHE. Sion has spread out her hand, [and] there is none to comfort her: the Lord has commanded [concerning] Jacob, his oppressors are round about him: Jerusalem has become among them as a removed woman.
Mañity tañañe t’i Tsione, fa tsy eo ty hañohò aze; fa nandilia’ Iehovà ty am’Iakobe o mpañohok’ azeo ty hifandrafelahy ama’e; ninjare raha maleotse añivo’ iareo ao t’Ierosalaime.
18 TSADE. The Lord is righteous; for I have provoked his mouth: hear, I pray you, all people, and behold my grief: my virgins and my young men are gone into captivity.
To ty a Iehovà, amy te niolàko o entam-palie’eo; mijanjiña arè ry kilakila’ ondatio vaho isao o halovilovikoo; te nisese mb’am-pandrohizamb’eo o somondrarakoo naho o ajalahikoo.
19 KOPH. I called my lovers, but they deceived me: my priests and my elders failed in the city; for they sought meat that they might restore their souls, and found [it] not.
Kinaiko o sakezakoo fe nifañahie’ iareo; namoe’aiñe an-drova ao o mpisoroko naho o androanavikoo ie nitsoeke mahakama hameloma’e fiaiñe.
20 RHECHS. Behold, O Lord; for I am afflicted: my belly is troubled, and my heart is turned within me; for I have been grievously rebellious: abroad the sword has bereaved me, even as death at home.
Hehe, ry Iehovà t’ie an-koheke; mikoreokoreoke ty troko, mifihiñe amako ao ty foko, amy hafairañe nilosotsey. Mampandala an-dalañe eo ty fibara; hoe fihomahañe ty añ’anjomba ao.
21 CHSEN. Hear, I pray you, for I groan: there is none to comfort me: all mine enemies have heard [of] mine afflictions, and rejoice because you have done [it]: you have brought on the day, you have called the time: they are become like to me.
Jinanji’ iereo ty fitoreovako, izaho pitso-pañohò; jinanji’ o rafelahiko iabio o feh’ohakoo; ehake iereo te nanoe’o izay. Ampitsatoho i andro nitseize’oy, le hanahak’ ahy iereo.
22 THAU. Let all their wickedness come before your face; and strip them, as they have made a gleaning for all my sins: for my groans are many, and my heart is grieved.
Ampombao aolo’o eo ze fonga fitoloñan-drati’ iareo; le ano am’ iereo o nanoe’o amakoo, ty amo fiolàñe iabio; amy te lako toreo iraho vaho midazidazìtse ty troko.
