Jeremiah 46
1 That which has been the word of YHWH to Jeremiah the prophet concerning the nations,
Niheo am’Iirmeà, mpitoky ty tsara’ Iehovà ty amo fifeheañeo;
2 for Egypt, concerning the force of Pharaoh-Necho king of Egypt, that has been by the Euphrates River, in Carchemish, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has struck, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah 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 “Set shield and buckler in array, And draw near to battle.
Ihentseño ty fañeba naho ty fikalan-defo, vaho itotoho i hotakotakey.
4 Gird the horses, and go up, you horsemen, And station yourselves with helmets, Polish the javelins, 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 have I seen them dismayed [and] turned backward? And their mighty ones are beaten down, And they have fled [to] a refuge, And did not turn their face, Fear [is] all around—a declaration of YHWH.
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 The swift do not flee, nor do the mighty escape, Northward, by the side of the Euphrates River, 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? He comes up as a flood, His waters shake themselves as rivers!
Ia ty hambañ’am’Ieore mitroatroakey, manahake o saka misorotombake hanginahina’eo?
8 Egypt comes up as a flood, And the waters shake themselves as rivers. And he says, I go up; I cover the land, I destroy the city and the inhabitants in it.
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, you horses; and boast yourselves, you chariots, And go forth, you mighty, Cush and Phut handling the shield, And Lud handling—treading the bow.
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 And that day [is] to Lord YHWH of Hosts A day of vengeance, To be avenged of His adversaries, And the sword has devoured, and been satisfied, And it has been watered from their blood, For a sacrifice [is] to Lord YHWH of Hosts, In the land of the north, by the Euphrates River.
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 take balm, O virgin daughter of Egypt, You have multiplied medicines in vain, There is no healing for you.
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 Nations have heard of your shame, And your cry has filled the land, For the mighty stumbled on the mighty, Together they have fallen—both of them!”
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 YHWH has spoken to Jeremiah the prophet concerning the coming in of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, to strike 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 sound in Migdol, And sound in Noph, and in Tahpanhes, say, Stand firm and prepare yourself, For a sword has devoured around you,
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 has your bull been swept away? He has not stood, because YHWH thrust him away.
Akore te nafaoke añe o maoza’oo? Ie tsy nahafitroatse amy te tinindri’ Iehovà ambane.
16 He has multiplied the stumbling, Indeed, one has fallen on his neighbor, And they say: Rise, and we return to our people, And to the land of our birth, Because of 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 They have cried there: Pharaoh king of Egypt [is] a desolation, The appointed time has passed 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—an affirmation of the King, YHWH of Hosts [is] His Name, Surely as Tabor [is] among mountains, And as Carmel by the sea—he comes in,
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 Make goods for yourself for removal, O inhabitant, daughter of Egypt, For Noph becomes a desolation, And has been burned up, without inhabitant.
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 beautiful heifer, Destruction comes into her from the north.
Kiloa fanjaka t’i Mitsraime fe boak’ avaratse añe ty lale-boròñe hamongotse—toe ho avy.
21 Even her hired ones in her midst [are] as calves of the stall, For even they have turned, They have fled together, they have not stood, For the day of their calamity has come on them, The time of their inspection.
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 Its voice goes on as a serpent, For they go with a force, And they have come in to her with axes, As hewers of trees.
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 have cut down her forest, A declaration of YHWH, For it is not searched, For they have been more than the grasshopper, And they have no numbering.
Hinatsa’ iareo i alay, hoe t’Iehovà, fa tsy lefe volilieñe; amy t’ie maro te amo valalao, mitozantozañe.
24 The daughter of Egypt has been ashamed, She has been given into the hand of the people of the north.
Nisalareñe ty anak’ ampela’ i Mitsraime; fa natolotse am-pità’ ondaty avaratse añe.
25 YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel, has said: Behold, I am seeing after Amon of No, And after Pharaoh, and after Egypt, And after her gods, and after her kings, And after Pharaoh, and after those trusting 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 have given them into the hand of those seeking their life, And into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, And into the hand of his servants, And afterward it is inhabited, As [in] days of old—a declaration of YHWH.
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 And you, you do not fear, My servant Jacob, Nor [are] you dismayed, O Israel, For behold, I am saving you from afar—And your seed from the land of their captivity, And Jacob has turned back, And has been at rest, and been at ease, And there is none disturbing.
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 You do not fear, My servant Jacob, A declaration of YHWH, For I [am] with you, For I make an end of all the nations To where I have driven you, And I do not make an end of you, And I have reproved you in judgment, And do not entirely acquit you!”
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.
