Jeremiah 2
1 The word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Le niheo amako ty tsara’ Iehovà, nanao ty hoe:
2 "Go, and cry in the ears of Jerusalem, saying, 'Thus says the LORD, "I remember you, the devotion of your youth, the love of your weddings; how you went after me in the wilderness, in a land that was not sown.
Akia mikoiha an-dravembia’ Ierosalaime ao ty hoe: Hoe t’Iehovà: tiahiko ty hatea’ i hatora’oy, ty fikokoa’o, ihe nienga-vao; i fireketa’o amako an-dratraratray an-tane mboe tsy nitongisañe añe.
3 Israel was holiness to the LORD, the first fruits of his increase. All who devour him shall be held guilty. Evil shall come on them,"' says the LORD."
Niavake am’ Iehovà t’Israele, ty lohavoan-kavokara’e; hanan-kakeo ze mampibotseke ama’e, hankàñe ty hizò iareo, hoe t’Iehovà.
4 Hear the word of the LORD, O house of Jacob, and all the families of the house of Israel.
Mijanjiña ty tsara’ Iehovà, ry anjomba’ Iakobe, naho ry hene fifokoan’anjomba’ Israele;
5 Thus says the LORD, "What unrighteousness have your fathers found in me, that they have gone far from me, and have walked after vanity, and are become vain?
Hoe t’Iehovà: Ino ty tsi-havañonañe nizoe’ o roae’ areoo amako, kanao nihankaña’e, naho nañorike ty tsy jefa’e, vaho nifotsake ho kafoake?
6 Neither did they say, 'Where is the LORD who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, who led us through the wilderness, through a land of deserts and of pits, through a land of drought and of the shadow of death, through a land that none passed through, and where no man lived?'
Mbore tsy nanao ty hoe iereo: Aia t’Iehovà nanese antika niakatse an-tane Mitsraime, niranga i fatram-beiy, i tanen-diolio naho koboñey, i tanem-paosa an-talinjon-kavilasiy, tane mb’e lia’e tsy nitsahe ‘ondaty, vaho tsy fimoneña’ ty ana’ ondaty.
7 I brought you into a plentiful land, to eat its fruit and its goodness; but when you entered, you defiled my land, and made my heritage an abomination.
Nendesako mb’an-tane mamokatse, hikama’ areo ty hasoa’e; fa ie nizilik’ ao te mone tiniva’ areo i tanekoy, vaho vineta’ areo i lovakoy.
8 The priests did not say, 'Where is the LORD?' And those who handle the law did not know me. The rulers also transgressed against me, and the prophets prophesied by Baal, and walked after things that do not profit.
Tsy nanao ty hoe o mpisoroñeo: Aia t’Iehovà? Namoea’ o mpamandroñe Hàke iabio iraho, nandilatse ahy o mpiarakeo, nitoky añamy Baale o mpitokio, vaho nañorike raha tsy vara.
9 "Therefore I will yet contend with you," says the LORD, "and I will contend with your children's children.
Aa le hiatreatreako, hoe t’Iehovà, vaho hatreatrèko o anan’ana’ areoo.
10 For pass over to the islands of Kittim, and see; and send to Kedar, and consider diligently; and see if there has been such a thing.
Mitsahà mb’an-tokonosen’ te-Kitìmeo añe naho mandrendreha naho ampañitrifo mb’e Kedare mb’eo vaho mitsoeha, hera ho oni’ areo te fa teo, o hoe zao:
11 Has a nation changed its gods, which really are no gods? But my people have changed their glory for that which does not profit.
Tane aia ty nañova o ‘ndrahare’eo, ie toe ‘ndrahare tsie avao? fe nasolo’ ondatiko raha tsy manjofake ty enge’ iareo.
12 "Be astonished, you heavens, at this, and be horribly afraid. Be very desolate," says the LORD.
Ilatsao ry likerañeo, minevenevèra naho mijehàra, hoe t’Iehovà.
13 "For my people have committed two evils: they have forsaken me, the spring of living waters, and cut them out cisterns, broken cisterns, that can hold no water.
Nanao hakeo roe ondatikoo: Nifarie’ iareo iraho, i Rano Veloñe migoangoañey, hihalia’iareo kadaha, kadaha señake tsy mahatan-drano.
14 Is Israel a servant? Is he a native-born slave? Why has he become a prey?
Ondevo hao t’Israele? Fetrek’oro hao? Aa le ino ty idohirañ’ aze?
15 The young lions have roared at him, and yelled. They have made his land waste. His cities are burned up, without inhabitant.
Fa nitroñe ama’e o liona tora’eo, nipoña-peo hampangoakoak’ i tane’ey, kòake iaby o rova’eo, tsy amam-pimoneñe.
16 The people of Memphis and Tahpanhes have also shaved the crown of your head.
Hinara’ o ana’ i Nofe naho i Tak’penkeseo ty hevo’o.
17 "Haven't you brought this on yourself, in that you have forsaken the LORD your God, when he led you by the way?
Tsy zao hao ty tali’ i raha zay, te naforintse’o t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’o, i niaolo azo amy lalañeiy.
18 Now what have you to do in the way to Egypt, to drink the waters of the Shihor? Or what have you to do in the way to Assyria, to drink the waters of the River?
Ino mb’arè ty atao’o an-dalam-b’e Mitsraime añe, hitohoke ty ranon-tSikore hao? Ino ka ty hanoe’o an-dalañe mb’e Asore mb’eo, he hitrinike i ranon-tSàkay hao?
19 "Your own wickedness shall correct you, and your backsliding shall reprove you. Know therefore and see that it is an evil thing and bitter that you have forsaken the LORD your God, and that my fear is not in you," says the LORD of hosts.
Ty halò-tsere’o avao ty hitrevok’ azo, naho hañendak’ azo ty fidisa-voli’o; mahaoniña arè, vaho mahaisaha te raha raty naho mafaitse ty fitsambolitio’o an’ Andrianañahare’o, naho te tsy ama’o ty fañeveñañe Amako, hoe t’i Talè, Iehovà’ i Màroy.
20 "For of old time I have broken your yoke, and burst your bonds; and you said, 'I will not serve;' for on every high hill and under every green tree you bowed yourself, playing the prostitute.
Fa pinozako haehae ty joka’o, rinafadrafako o vahotseo, le hoe irehe: Tsy ho toroñeko, te mone nandrea’o vaho nanao hakarapiloañe ambone’ ze hene haboañe naho ambane’ ze fonga hatae mandrevake
21 Yet I had planted you a noble vine, wholly a right seed. How then have you turned into the degenerate branches of a foreign vine to me?
Ie naketsako am-bahem-panjàka, toe am-boa’e soa do’e; inom-barè ty nifotera’o ho hatae tsy jefa’e, ho vahe alik’amako?
22 For though you wash yourself with lye, and use much soap, yet your iniquity is marked before me," says the LORD.
Aa ndra te ihe mikitroñe an-kilìny, vaho milipotse an-tsavony ao, mboe komatrao amako o tahi’oo, hoe t’i Talè, Iehovà.
23 "How can you say, 'I am not defiled. I have not gone after the Baals'? See your way in the valley. Know what you have done. You are a swift dromedary traversing her ways;
Aa vaho ino ty atao’o ty hoe: Tsy aman-kila iraho, izaho tsy nihitrike mb’amo Baaleo? Isao ty sata’o am-bavatane ao, mahafohina o anoe’oo; kiloan-drameva malisa irehe, manivalativala o lala’eo;
24 a wild donkey used to the wilderness, that snuffs up the wind in her desire. When she is in heat, who can turn her away? All those who seek her will not weary themselves. In her month, they will find her.
tamanam-birike lý zatse am-patrañe ao, mañantson-tioke am-pañirian-tro’e, ia ty mahafikalañe i fitongoña’ey? Tsy ho mokotse ty mipay aze, ho oni’ iareo amy fivola’ey.
25 "Withhold your foot from being unshod, and your throat from thirst. But you said, 'It is in vain. No, for I have loved strangers, and I will go after them.'
Tano o fandia’oo tsy ho afa-kana, ty tretra’o tsy haran-drano; fe hoe irehe: Tsy aman-ko tamaeñe, Aiy! amy te nikoko ambahiny iraho, le tsy mete tsy heañeko.
26 As the thief is ashamed when he is found, so is the house of Israel ashamed; they, their kings, their officials, and their priests, and their prophets;
Hambañe ami’ty hasalara’ ty mpikizo, ie tendreke, ty hameñara’ ty anjomba’ Israele: ie naho o mpanjaka’eo, o roandria’eo, o mpisoro’eo, vaho o mpitoki’eo.
27 who tell wood, 'You are my father;' and a stone, 'You have brought me out:' for they have turned their back to me, and not their face; but in the time of their trouble they will say, 'Arise, and save us.'
Ie manao ami’ty hatae ty hoe: Raeko irehe, naho ami’ty vato: Ihe ty niterak’ ahy, toe nampiatre-boho amako iereo fa tsy ty laharañe; fe an-tsa maha am-poheke ro hanoa’iareo ty hoe: Miongaha, rombaho zahay.
28 "But where are your gods that you have made for yourselves? Let them arise, if they can save you in the time of your trouble. For according to the number of your cities are your gods, Judah. And according to the number of the streets of Jerusalem they were sacrificing to Baal.
Aia heike o ‘ndrahare tsinene’o ho azoo? Angao hiongake iereo, naho mete handrombak’ azo an-tsan-kankà’o ao; fa mira ami’ty hamaro’ o rova’oo ty ndrahare’o, ry Iehodà.
29 "Why will you contend with me? You all have transgressed against me," says the LORD.
Akore t’ie miatreatre ahiko? Ie fonga nanao hakeo amako, hoe t’Iehovà.
30 "I have struck your children in vain. They received no correction. Your own sword has devoured your prophets, like a destroying lion.
Tsy jefa’e ty nandafàko o ana’ areoo, ie tsy mete avohotse; toe nabotsem-pibara’ areo o mpitoki’areoo, hoe namotsahan-diona.
31 Generation, consider the word of the LORD. Have I been a wilderness to Israel? Or a land of thick darkness? Why do my people say, 'We have broken loose. We will come to you no more?'
Ry tariratseo, inao ty tsara’ Iehovà: Nifatram-bey am’ Israele hao iraho? ndra tane migobon-kaiem-bey? Ino ty atao’ ondatikoo ty hoe: Votsotse zahay; tsy homb’ama’o ka?
32 "Can a virgin forget her ornaments, or a bride her attire? Yet my people have forgotten me for days without number.
Handikofa’ ty somondrara hao o rava’eo, ndra ty enga-vao o saro’eo? Fe haliño’ ondatikoo andro tsy fotofoto iraho.
33 How well you prepare your way to seek love. Therefore you have taught even the wicked women your ways.
Ino ty ihamina’o ty lalam-pipaia’o koko? Toe nanare’o amo sata-rati’oo ka o kalalijakeo.
34 Also the blood of the souls of the innocent poor is found in your skirts. You did not find them breaking in; but it is because of all these things.
Mbore oniñe an-jipo’o ao ty liom-piai’ o rarake vañoñeo; tsy nirendre’o t’ie niboroboñake ama’o; ie amy hoe rezay
35 "Yet you said, 'I am innocent. Surely his anger has turned away from me.' "Look, I will judge you, because you say, 'I have not sinned.'
manao ty hoe: Izaho tsy aman-kakeo; fa mitolik’ amako ty haviñera’e— ingo mikai-jaka amako irehe ami’ty atao’o ty hoe: Tsy aman-tahin-draho.
36 Why do you go about so much to change your way? You will be ashamed of Egypt also, as you were ashamed of Assyria.
Ie mikanifokanifoke avao ami’ty fiovà’o lalañe; Toe ho salare’ i Mitsraime ka manahake ty hameñara’o amy Asore.
37 From there also you shall go forth, with your hands on your head; for the LORD has rejected those in whom you trust, and you shall not prosper with them.
Boak’ atoy ty hiakara’o, taña-mitan-doha; fa napo’ Iehovà o niatoa’oo, vaho tsy hiraorao am’ iereo irehe.
