Jeremiah 38
1 Shephatiah the son of Mattan, and Gedaliah the son of Pashhur, and Jucal the son of Shelemiah, and Pashhur the son of Malchijah, heard the words that Jeremiah spoke to all the people, saying,
Aa le jinanji’ i Sefatia ana’ i Matane, naho i Gedalia ana’ i Pasore, naho Iokale ana’ i Selemia, naho i Pasore ana’ i Malkia, ty tsara nisaontsie’ Iirmeà am’ ondaty iabio ami’ty hoe,
2 "Thus says the LORD, 'He who remains in this city shall die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence; but he who goes forth to the Chaldeans shall live, and his life shall be to him for a prey, and he shall live.'
Hoe t’Iehovà: Ho zamanem-pibara, naho ty hasalikoañe naho ty angorosy ze midoñe an-drova atoy; fe ho veloñe ze mionjomb’ amo nte-kasdio mb’eo, le hengañe ama’e ty fiai’e ho tsindroke vaho ho veloñe.
3 Thus says the LORD, 'This city shall surely be given into the hand of the army of the king of Babylon, and he shall take it.'"
Hoe t’Iehovà, Toe hatolotse am-pità’ ty lia-rain-dahindefo’ i mpanjaka’ i Baveleiy ty rova toy vaho ho tavaneñe.
4 Then the officials said to the king, "Please let this man be put to death; because he weakens the hands of the men of war who remain in this city, and the hands of all the people, in speaking such words to them: for this man doesn't seek the welfare of this people, but the hurt."
Le hoe i roandriañe rey amy mpanjakay, Ehe, mihalaly ama’o zahay te havetrake indatiy; amy te mokore’e ty fità’ o lahindefo sisa an-drova atoio, naho ty fità’ ondaty iabio, ie taroñe’e i tsara zay le t’ie tsy mipay ty hahasoa ondaty retoa fa ty hampiantoa’e.
5 Zedekiah the king said, "Look, he is in your hand; for the king is not he who can do anything against you."
Le hoe t’i Tsidkia mpanjaka am’ iereo, Ingo, am-pità’ areo re: fa ia’ mbao ty mpanjaka te hahafiatrek’ ama’ areo?
6 Then took they Jeremiah, and cast him into the dungeon of Malchiah the king's son, that was in the court of the guard: and they let down Jeremiah with cords. In the dungeon there was no water, but mire; and Jeremiah sank in the mire.
Aa le rinambe’ iereo t’Iirmeà vaho nagodo’ iareo an-kadaha’ i Malkia ana’ i mpanjakay, an-kiririsam-pigaritse ao naho nazotso’ iareo an-taly t’Iirmeà. Tsy aman-drano i kadahay, fa fotake, vaho nilempotse an-ditsak’ ao t’Iirmeà.
7 Now when Ebedmelech the Ethiopian, a eunuch, who was in the king's house, heard that they had put Jeremiah in the dungeon (the king then sitting in the Benjamin Gate),
Aa ie jinanji’ i Ebed-meleke nte Kosy, vositse, añ’anjomba’ i mpanjakay te najo’ iareo an-kadaha ao t’Iirmeà—ie tandalam-bei’ i Beniamine eo i mpanjakay,
8 Ebedmelech went forth out of the king's house, and spoke to the king, saying,
le niakatse añ’ anjombam-panjaka ao t’i Ebed-meleke vaho nisaontsy amy mpanjakay ty hoe,
9 "My lord the king, these men have done evil in all that they have done to Jeremiah the prophet, whom they have cast into the dungeon; and he is likely to die in the place where he is, because of the famine; for there is no more bread in the city."
O ry talèko mpanjaka, Hekoheko raty ty nanoe’ ondaty reo amy fonga fitoloña’ iareo am’ Iirmeà mpitokiy, ie najorobo an-kadaha ao; toe hihomak’ an-toe’e ao re ty amy mosarey, ie tsy ama-mofo ka ty an-drova atoy.
10 Then the king commanded Ebedmelech the Ethiopian, saying, "Take from here thirty men with you, and take up Jeremiah the prophet out of the dungeon, before he dies."
Aa le nafanto’ i mpanjakay amy Ebed-meleke nte Kosy ty hoe: Angalao ondaty telo-polo atoy, vaho akaro an-kadaha ao t’Iirmeà mpitoky, tsy mone hihomake.
11 So Ebedmelech took the men with him, and went into the house of the king under the treasury, and took there rags and worn-out garments, and let them down by cords into the dungeon to Jeremiah.
Aa le nampindreze’ i Ebed-meleke ama’e i ondaty rey, le nizilik’ añ’ anjomba’ i mpanjakay ambane’ i trañom-baray le nandrambe tsirodea naho tsikotita, vaho nazotso’ iareo an-taly mb’am’ Iirmeà amy kadahay.
12 Ebedmelech the Ethiopian said to Jeremiah, "Put now these rags and worn-out garments under your armpits under the cords." Jeremiah did so.
Le hoe t’i Ebed-meleke nte-Kosy am’ Iirmeà, Ano an-kilek’ ao o tsirodea naho tsikotitao ty amo tàlio. Le nanoe’ Iirmeà.
13 So they drew up Jeremiah with the cords, and took him up out of the dungeon: and Jeremiah remained in the court of the guard.
Aa le tinari’ iareo mañambone amo talìo t’Iirmeà, naho naaka’ iareo an-kadahay, vaho nidok’ an’ kiririsam-pigaritse ao t’Iirmeà.
14 Then Zedekiah the king sent, and took Jeremiah the prophet to him into the third entry that is in the house of the LORD: and the king said to Jeremiah, "I will ask you something. Hide nothing from me."
Nampisangitrife’ i Tsidkia am’ Iirmeà mpitoky vaho nendese’e mb’an-dalambey faha-telo añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà ao, le hoe i mpanjakay am’ Iirmeà. Hañontane raha ama’o iraho le ko añetaha’o ndra inoñ’ inoñe.
15 Then Jeremiah said to Zedekiah, "If I declare it to you, will you not surely put me to death? And if I give you counsel, you will not listen to me."
Le hoe t’Iirmeà amy Tsidkia, Aa naho taroñeko, tsy hañohofa’o loza hao? Aa ndra te toroako, ho haoñe’o hao?
16 So Zedekiah the king swore secretly to Jeremiah, saying, "As the LORD lives, who made us this soul, I will not put you to death, neither will I give you into the hand of these men who seek your life."
Aa le nanao fanta añ’ etake am’ Iirmeà t’i Tsidkia mpanjaka ami’ty hoe, Kanao veloñe t’Iehovà nitsene i sandrin-tika retoa, tsy havetrako irehe, naho tsy hatoloko am-pità’ ondaty mipay ty fiai’oo.
17 Then Jeremiah said to Zedekiah, "Thus says the LORD, the God of hosts, the God of Israel: 'If you will go forth to the king of Babylon's officers, then your soul shall live, and this city shall not be burned with fire; and you shall live, and your house.
Aa le hoe t’Iirmeà amy Tsidkia, Hoe t’Iehovà, Andrianañahare’ i màroy, i Andrianañahare’ Israeley: Ie hiakatse mb’amo roandriam-panjaka’ i Baveleo ey, le ho veloñe ty fiai’o, naho tsy ho forototoe’ ty afo ty rova toy; vaho ho velon-drehe naho i anjomba’oy.
18 But if you will not go forth to the king of Babylon's officers, then shall this city be given into the hand of the Chaldeans, and they shall burn it with fire, and you shall not escape out of their hand.'"
Fa naho tsy hiavotse mb’amo roandriam-panjaka’ i Baveleo irehe, le hatolotse am-pità’ o nte Kasdio ty rova toy vaho ho tomomohe’ iareo afo, ihe tsy ho votsorem-pità’ iareo.
19 Zedekiah the king said to Jeremiah, "I am afraid of the Jews who are fallen away to the Chaldeans, lest they deliver me into their hand, and they mock me."
Aa hoe t’i Tsidkia mpanjaka am’ Iirmeà, Atahorako o nte Iehodà nivalike mb’amo nte-Kasdioo, hera hanese ahy am-pità’ iareo ho kizaheñe.
20 But Jeremiah said, "They shall not deliver you. Obey, I beg you, the voice of the LORD, in that which I speak to you: so it shall be well with you, and your soul shall live.
Fa hoe t’Iirmeà: Tsy hasese’ iereo. Ehe, mivohora am’ Iehovà ty amy nivolañakoy soa te hierañeran-drehe vaho ho veloñe ty fiai’o.
21 But if you refuse to go forth, this is the word that the LORD has shown me:
F’ihe mifoneñe tsy hionjoñe mb’eo, le zao ty tsara’ Iehovà natoro’e ahy:
22 look, all the women who are left in the king of Judah's house shall be brought forth to the king of Babylon's officers, and those women shall say, 'Your familiar friends have set you on, and have prevailed over you. Your feet are sunk in the mire, they have turned away back.'
Inao! ze rakemba sisa añ’ anjombam-panjaka’ Iehodà ao ro songa hakareñe mb’ amo roandria’ i Baveleo: Le ty hoe ty ho asa’ i rakemba rey: O rañe’oo ty nañosik’azo, vaho nandrekets’ azo, aa hehe te nilempotse an-ditsak’ ao o fandia’oo le nitsambolitio’ iareo.
23 They shall bring out all your wives and your children to the Chaldeans; and you shall not escape out of their hand, but shall be taken by the hand of the king of Babylon: and you shall cause this city to be burned with fire."
Hene hakare’ iereo mb’amo nte Kasdio o valy naho ana’oo; le tsy ho votsotse am’pità’ iareo irehe fa ho rambesem-pità’ i mpanjaka’ i Baveley, vaho ihe ty hamorototoañe ty rova toy an’ afo.
24 Then Zedekiah said to Jeremiah, "Let no man know of these words, and you shall not die.
Le hoe t’i Tsidkia am’Iirmeà, Ao tsy hampahafohine’o am’ondaty i rehake zay le tsy ho mate irehe.
25 But if the officials hear that I have talked with you, and they come to you, and tell you, 'Declare to us now what you have said to the king; do not hide it from us, and we will not put you to death; also what the king said to you':
Aa naho rendre’ o roandriañeo te nifanaontsy tika, naho ivotraha’ iareo vaho manao ty hoe: Ehe saontsio ama’ay le nitaroñe’o amy mpanjakaiy naho i nisaontsia’ i mpanjakaiy, le ko añetaha’o, tsy hañohofa’ay loza:
26 then you shall tell them, 'I presented my petition before the king, that he would not cause me to return to Jonathan's house, to die there.'"
Le ty hoe ty hatoi’o, I entako amy mpanjakay: Ie nihalaliako te tsy hampibalike ahy mb’añ’anjomba’ Ionatane mb’eo hivetrak’ ao.
27 Then all the officials came to Jeremiah, and asked him; and he told them according to all these words that the king had commanded. So they left off speaking with him; for the matter was not perceived.
Ie amy zao sindre niropak’ am’ Iirmeà o roandriañeo nañontane aze, le tinaro’e am’iareo i entañe iaby nampisaontsie’ i mpanjakaiy. Aa le nado’ iareo ty fisaontsiañe ama’e; vaho tsy nioni’ iareo ty vente’e.
28 So Jeremiah stayed in the court of the guard until the day that Jerusalem was taken.
Nimoneñe an-kiririsam-pigaritse ao amy zao re ampara’ ty andro’ nitavanañe Ierosalaime.
