< Jeremiah 10 >

1 Hear the word, O house of Israel, That YHWH has spoken for you.
Henoy ny teny izay lazain’ i Jehovah aminareo, ry taranak’ Isiraely!
2 Thus said YHWH: “Do not accustom yourselves to the way of the nations, And do not be frightened by the signs of the heavens, For the nations are frightened by them.
Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Aza mianatra ny fanaon’ ny jentilisa; Ary aza matahotra ireo famantarana eny amin’ ny lanitra; Fa ny jentilisa no matahotra izany.
3 For the statutes of the peoples are vanity, For one has cut a tree from a forest, Work of the hands of a craftsman, with an axe,
Fa ny fanaon’ ny firenena dia zava-poana; Fa hazo nokapaina tany an’ ala ireny, dia asan-tànan’ ny mpiasa amin’ ny famaky;
4 They beautify it with silver and with gold, They fix it with nails and with hammers, And it does not stumble.
Volafotsy sy volamena no an-dravahany azy, ary hombo sy tantanana no entiny manamafy azy, mba tsy hihetsiketehany.
5 They [are] stiff as a palm, and they do not speak, They are surely carried, for they do not step, Do not be afraid of them, for they do no evil, Indeed, to do good is also not in them.”
Toy ny hazo voasana ho sari-drofia izy, fa tsy mahateny; Ary entina ihany izy, fa tsy mba afa-mandeha; Aza matahotra azy, fa tsy mahatonga loza izy sady tsy mahay manisy soa.
6 Because there is none like You, O YHWH, You [are] great, and Your Name [is] great in might.
Tsy misy tokoa izay tahaka Anao, Jehovah ô; Lehibe Hianao, ary lehibe amin’ ny hery ny anaranao.
7 Who does not fear You, King of the nations? For it is befitting to You, For among all the wise of the nations, And in all their kingdom, there is none like You.
Iza no tsy hatahotra Anao, ry Mpanjakan’ ny firenena! Fa Hianao no iendrehan’ izany, eny, amin’ ny hendry rehetra amin’ ny firenena sy amin’ ny fanjakany rehetra dia tsy misy tahaka Anao.
8 And as one they are brutish and foolish, An instruction of vanities [is] the tree itself.
Fa ketrina sy adala avokoa izy rehetra; He! fananaram-poana! fa tapa-kazo ihany.
9 Spread-out silver is brought from Tarshish, And gold from Uphaz, Work of an artisan, and of the hands of a refiner, Their clothing [is] blue and purple, Work of the skillful—all of them.
Volafotsy voafisaka nalaina avy tany Tarsisy sy volamena avy tany Ofaza Izany, asan-tanan’ ny mpiasa sy ny mpanefy volamena; Lamba manga sy volomparasy ny fitafiany; Asan’ ny mahay zavatra izy rehetra.
10 And YHWH [is] a God of truth, He [is] a living God, and a perpetual King, The earth shakes from His wrath, And nations do not endure His indignation.
Fa Jehovah no Andriamanitra tokoa, eny, Izy no Andriamanitra velona sy Mpanjaka mandrakizay. Izay mampihorohoro ny tany amin’ ny fahatezerany, ka tsy tantin’ ny firenena ny fahavinirany
11 Thus you say to them, “The gods who have not made the heavens and earth, They perish from the earth, And from under these heavens.”
(Izao no holazainareo amin’ ireny; Ny amin’ ny andriamanitra izay tsy mba nanao ny lanitra sy ny tany, dia ho levona tsy ho amin’ ny tany na ho atỳ ambanin’ ny lanitra ireny)
12 The Maker of the earth by His power, The Establisher of the world by His wisdom, Who, by His understanding, stretched forth the heavens—
Dia Ilay nanao ny tany tamin’ ny heriny sy nampiorina izao tontolo izao tamin’ ny fahendreny ary namelatra ny lanitra tamin’ ny fisainany.
13 When He gives forth His voice, A multitude of waters [is] in the heavens, And He causes vapors to come up from the end of the earth, He has made lightnings for rain, And brings out wind from His treasures.
Raha mampirohondrohona ny rano any an-danitra Izy, dia mampiakatra fofona avy any amin’ ny faran’ ny tany; Manao ny helatra ho amin’ ny ranonorana Izy sady mamoaka ny rivotra avy amin’ ny firaketany.
14 Every man is brutish by knowledge, Every refiner is put to shame by a carved image, For his molten image [is] false. And there is no breath in them.
Efa ketrina avokoa ny olona rehetra ka tsy manam-pahalalana; Menarina noho ny sarin-javatra voasokitra ny mpanefy volamena rehetra; Fa fitaka ny sarin-javatra an-idina, sady tsy misy fofon’ aina ao aminy.
15 They [are] vanity, work of erring ones, They perish in the time of their inspection.
Zava-poana ireny, dia asa mahatsikaiky foana; Amin’ ny andro hamaliana azy dia ho levona izy.
16 The Portion of Jacob [is] not like these, For He [is] the Framer of all things, And Israel [is] the rod of His inheritance, YHWH of Hosts [is] His Name.
Tsy mba tahaka ireo ny Anjaran’ i Jakoba; Fa Mpamorona ny zavatra rehetra Izy; Ary ny Isiraely no firenena lovany; Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, no anarany.
17 Gather your merchandise from the land, O dweller in the bulwark,
Angony ny korontan’ entanao, ka ento hiala amin’ ny tany, ry ilay mipetraka ao amin’ ny haterena!
18 For thus said YHWH: “Behold, I am slinging out the inhabitants of the land at this time, And have been an adversary to them, So that they are found out.”
Fa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Indro, hatorako ho indray misidina toy ny vaton’ antsamotady ny mponina amin’ ny tany, ary hataoko terỳ izy mba hahitany.
19 Woe to me for my breaking, My striking has been grievous, And I said, “Surely this [is] my sickness, and I bear it.”
Mahita loza aho, fa torotoro! Tsy azo sitranina ny feriko; Nefa hoy Izaho: Anjara-fahoriako izao, ka dia hozakaiko ihany.
20 My tent has been spoiled, And all my cords have been broken, My sons have gone out from me, and they are not, There is none stretching out my tent anymore, And raising up my curtains.
Rava ny laiko, ary tapaka avokoa ny kofehin-daiko; Lasa ny zanako, ka tsy misy intsony, eny, tsy misy hamelatra ny laiko intsony na hanantona ny ambain-daiko.
21 For the shepherds have become brutish, And they have not sought YHWH, Therefore they have not acted wisely, And all their flock is scattered.
Fa efa ketrina ny mpiandry ondry ka tsy mitady an’ i Jehovah; Izany no tsy mahahendry azy, ka dia miely ny ondry andrasany rehetra.
22 A voice of a report, behold, it has come, Even a great shaking from the north country, To make the cities of Judah a desolation, A habitation of dragons.
Injany! misy siosion-teny hoe: Indro, tamy izy amin’ ny fihorakorahana be avy any amin’ ny tany avaratra mba hahatonga ny tanànan’ ny Joda ho lao sy ho fonenan’ ny amboadia.
23 I have known, O YHWH, that not of man [is] his way, Not of man [is] the going and establishing of his step.
Jehovah ô, fantatro fa tsy an’ ny olombelona ny lalan-kalehany, na an’ ny mpandeha ny hahalavorary ny diany
24 Discipline me, O YHWH, only in judgment, Not in Your anger, lest You make me small.
Jehovah ô, anaro aho, nefa araka ny antonony ihany, fa tsy amin’ ny fahatezeranao, fandrao hataonao tonga tsinontsinona aho.
25 Pour out Your fury on the nations that have not known You, And on the families that have not called on Your Name, For they have eaten up Jacob, Indeed, they have eaten him up, indeed, they consume him, And they have made his habitation desolate!
Aidino amin’ ny jentilisa izay tsy mahalala Anao ny fahatezeranao, dia amin’ ny taranaka Izay tsy miantso ny anaranao. Fa efa nihinana an’ i Jakoba ireo, eny, nihinana sy nahalevona azy ary nahalao ny fonenany.
