< Jeremiah 31 >

1 "At that time," says the LORD, "will I be the God of all the families of Israel, and they shall be my people."
Amin’ izany andro izany, hoy Jehovah, dia ho Andriamanitry ny isam-pianakavian’ ny Isiraely Aho, ary izy ho oloko.
2 Thus says the LORD, "The people who were left of the sword found favor in the wilderness; even Israel, when I went to cause him to rest.
Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Hahita fitia any an-efitra ny olona izay sisa tsy matin’ ny sabatra; Handeha Aho ka hanome fitsaharana ho an’ ny Isiraely.
3 The LORD appeared to him from afar. I have loved you with an everlasting love; therefore with loving kindness have I drawn you.
Tany lavitra any no nisehoan’ i Jehovah tamiko ka nanao hoe: Fitiavana mandrakizay no nitiavako anao, koa izany no nampaharetako famindram-po ho anao.
4 Again will I build you, and you shall be built, O virgin of Israel: again you shall be adorned with your tambourines, and shall go forth in the dances of those who make merry.
Mbola hanorina anao indray Aho, ka dia hiorina ianao, ry Isiraely virijina! Ary mbola hiravaka mitondra ny ampongatapakao ianao ka hivoaka amin’ ny dihin’ ny mifaly.
5 Again you shall plant vineyards on the mountains of Samaria; the planters shall plant, and shall enjoy its fruit.
Mbola hanao tanim-boaloboka ao amin’ ny tendrombohitr’ i Samaria ianao; Ny mpamboly dia hamboly sady hihinana ny vokatra.
6 For there shall be a day, that the watchmen on the hills of Ephraim shall cry, "Arise, and let us go up to Zion to the LORD our God."'"
Fa mbola hisy andro hiantsoan’ ny mpitazana any amin’ ny tany havoan’ i Efraima hoe: Mitsangana ianareo, ka andeha isika hiakatra any Ziona, Ho any amin’ i Jehovah Andriamanitsika.
7 For thus says the LORD, "Sing with gladness for Jacob, and shout for the chief of the nations: publish, praise, and say, 'For the LORD has saved your people, the remnant of Israel.'
Fa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Mihobia amin’ ny fifaliana noho ny amin’ i Jakoba, ary mifalia noho ny amin’ ny lohan’ ny firenena, torionareo, deraonareo, ka ataovy hoe: Jehovah ô, vonjeo ny olonao, dia ny sisa amin’ ny Isiraely.
8 'Look, I will bring them from the north country, and gather them from the uttermost parts of the earth, along with the blind and the lame, the woman with child and her who travails with child together: a great company shall they return here.
Indro, hitondra azy avy any amin’ ny tany avaratra Aho sy hanangona azy avy any amin’ ny faran’ ny tany, ka dia samy ho eny aminy avokoa na ny jamba na ny mandringa, na izay manan’ anaka na izay mihetsi-jaza; Irai-dia marenina no hiverina atỳ.
9 They shall come with weeping; and with petitions will I lead them: I will cause them to walk by rivers of waters, in a straight way in which they shall not stumble; for I am a father to Israel, and Ephraim is my firstborn.'"
Amin’ ny fitomaniana no hihaviany, ary amin’ ny fifonany no hitondrako azy; Ary ho entiko ho eny amoron’ ny renirano izy, amin’ ny lalana mahitsy izay tsy hahatafintohina azy; Fa Rain’ Isiraely Aho, ary Efraima no lahimatoako.
10 Hear the word of the LORD, you nations, and declare it in the islands afar off; and say, "He who scattered Israel will gather him, and keep him, as shepherd does his flock."
Mihainoa ny tenin’ i Jehovah, ianareo jentilisa, ary torio any amin’ ny tany amoron-tsiraka any lavitra any izany, ka atao hoe: Izay nampiely ny Isiraely no hanangona azy indray sady hitandrina azy toy ny fitandrin’ ny mpiandry ondry ny ondriny.
11 For the LORD has ransomed Jacob, and redeemed him from the hand of him who was stronger than he.
Fa Jehovah efa nanavotra an’ i Jakoba sy efa nanafaka azy tamin’ ny tanan’ ny mahery noho izy.
12 They shall come and sing in the height of Zion, and they shall be radient over the goodness of the LORD, to the grain, and to the new wine, and to the oil, and to the young of the flock and of the herd: and their soul shall be as a watered garden; and they shall not sorrow any more at all.
Ka dia ho avy ireny ka hihoby ao amin’ ny havoan’ i Ziona, dia hitanjozotra ho any amin’ ny zava-tsoan’ i Jehovah, dia ny vary sy ny ranom-boaloboka sy ny diloilo sy ny zanak’ ondry ary ny zanak’ omby; Ary ny fanahiny ho toy ny tanimboly vonton-drano, ka tsy hihamalazo intsony.
13 "Then shall the virgin rejoice in the dance, and the young men and the old together; for I will turn their mourning into joy, and will comfort them, and make them rejoice from their sorrow.
Ary amin’ izany dia ho faly amin’ ny fandihizana ny virijina mbamin’ ny zatovo sy ny antitra koa; Fa hampodiko ho fifaliana ny fitomaniany, ka hampiononiko sy hampifaliko izy ho afaka alahelo.
14 I will satiate the soul of the priests with fatness, and my people shall be satisfied with my goodness," says the LORD.
Dia hovokisako zava-matavy ny fanahin’ ny mpisorona, ary ny oloko ho voky ny zava-tsoako, hoy Jehovah.
15 Thus says the LORD: "A voice is heard in Ramah, lamentation and weeping and great bitterness, Rachel weeping for her children; she refuses to be comforted for her children, because they are no more."
Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Nisy feo re tao Rama, dia fidradradradrana sy fitomaniana fatratra; Rahely nitomany ny zanany, ary tsy azo nampiononina izy noho ny amin’ ny zanany, satria lany ritra ireny.
16 Thus says the LORD: "Refrain your voice from weeping, and your eyes from tears; for your work shall be rewarded," says the LORD; "and they shall come again from the land of the enemy.
Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Atsaharo ny fitomanianao sy ny fandatsahanao ranomaso; Fa hisy valiny tokoa ny ataonao, hoy Jehovah, ary hody avy any amin’ ny tanin’ ny fahavalo ireny.
17 There is hope for your latter end," says the LORD; "and your children shall come again to their own border.
Ary misy fanantenana ho anao any am-parany, hoy Jehovah; Fa ny zaza dia hiverina ho any amin’ ny taniny indray.
18 I have surely heard Ephraim bemoaning himself thus, 'You have chastised me, and I was chastised, as an untrained calf: turn me, and I shall be turned; for you are the LORD my God.
Efa reko tokoa Efraima nitomany ny tenany hoe: Nofaizanao aho, eny, nofaizana toy ny ombilahy kely tsy voafolaka; Avereno aho, dia ho tafaverina, fa Hianao no Jehovah Andriamanitro.
19 Surely after that I was turned, I repented; and after that I was instructed, I struck on my thigh: I was ashamed, yes, even confounded, because I bore the reproach of my youth.'
Nony efa niverina tokoa aho, dia vao nahalala fanenenana; Ary rehefa nampahafantarina ny toe-tenako aho, dia niteha-tratra; Menatra sady mangaihay aho, fa latsain’ ny tsinin’ ny fahatanorako.
20 Is Ephraim my dear son? Is he a darling child? For as often as I speak against him, I do earnestly remember him still: therefore my heart yearns for him; I will surely have mercy on him," says the LORD.
Zanako mahafinaritra va Efraima, zaza malalako va izy, no dia fatra-pahatsiaro azy isaky ny mitezitra azy Aho? Noho izany dia onena azy ny foko; Hamindra fo aminy tokoa Aho, hoy Jehovah.
21 "Set up road signs, make guideposts; set your heart toward the highway, even the way by which you went: turn again, virgin of Israel, turn again to these your cities.
Manangàna famantaran-dalana ho anao ianao, manorena tsangam-bato; Saino tsara ny lalana efa voavoatra, dia ilay lalana efa nalehanao; Miverena indray, ry Isiraely virijina, miverena indray ho amin’ ireto tanànanao ireto.
22 How long will you go here and there, you backsliding daughter? For the LORD has created a new thing in the earth: a woman shall encompass a man."
Mandra-pahoviana no hirioriovanao, ry zanakavavy mpiodina? Fa Jehovah efa namorona zava-baovao amin’ ny tany: Vehivavy no hanodidina lehilahy.
23 Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, "Yet again shall they use this speech in the land of Judah and in its cities, when I shall bring again their captivity: 'The LORD bless you, habitation of righteousness, mountain of holiness.'
Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely: Mbola holavina indray ao amin’ ny tanin’ ny Joda sy ao amin’ ny tanànany izao teny izao, raha hampodiko avy amin’ ny fahababoany izy: Hotahin’ i Jehovah anie ianao, ry fonenan’ ny fahamarinana, sy ry tendrombohitry ny fahamasinana!
24 Judah and all its cities shall dwell in it together, the farmers, and those who go about with flocks.
Ary ny Joda sy ny tanànany rehetra dia hiara-monina ao aminy ho mpiasa tany sy ho mpilasy mitondra ny andian’ ny ondry aman’ osiny.
25 For I have satisfied the weary soul, and I have filled every sorrowful soul."
Fa ny fanahy ana dia hampisotroiko, ary ny fanahy mihaosa rehetra dia hovokisako.
26 On this I awakened, and saw; and my sleep was sweet to me.
Ary tamin’ izay dia nahatsiaro aho ka nahita; Ary mamiko ny torimasoko.
27 "Look, the days come," says the LORD, "that I will sow the house of Israel and the house of Judah with the seed of man, and with the seed of animal.
Indro, avy ny andro, hoy Jehovah, ka hafafiko eo amin’ ny taranak’ Isiraely sy ny taranak’ i Joda Ny taranak’ olombelona sy ny taranaky ny biby fiompy.
28 It shall happen that, like as I have watched over them to pluck up and to break down and to overthrow and to destroy and to afflict, so will I watch over them to build and to plant," says the LORD.
Ary toy ny niambenako azy hongotana sy hazera sy harodana sy horavana ary hampahorina, dia ho toy izany no hiambenako azy Haorina sy hambolena kosa, hoy Jehovah.
29 "In those days they shall say no more, 'The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the children's teeth are set on edge.'
Amin’ izany andro izany izy dia tsy hanao intsony hoe: ny ray no nihinana voaloboka maharikivy, ka ny nifin’ ny zanany no madilo.
30 But everyone shall die for his own iniquity: every man who eats the sour grapes, his teeth shall be set on edge.
Fa ny olona rehetra samy ho fatin’ ny helony avy; Izay rehetra homana ny voaloboka maharikivy. Dia izy ihany no hadilo nify.
31 Look, the days come," says the LORD, "when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:
Indro, avy ny andro, hoy Jehovah, Izay hanaovako fanekena vaovao amin’ ny taranak’ Isiraely sy ny taranak’ i Joda,
32 not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they broke, and I disregarded them," says the LORD.
Nefa tsy araka ny fanekena nataoko tamin’ ny razany tamin’ ny andro nitantanako azy nitondra azy nivoaka avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta; Fa izy ireny dia nivadika ny fanekeko, Nefa Izaho no vadiny, hoy Jehovah.
33 "But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days," says the LORD: "I will put my law in their minds, and write it on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people:
Fa izao no fanekena havoko amin’ ny taranak’ Isiraely. Rehefa afaka izany andro izany, hoy Jehovah: Dia hataoko ao an-tsainy ny lalàko sady hosoratako ao am-pony; Ary Izaho ho Andriamaniny, ary izy ho oloko.
34 and they shall teach no more every man his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, 'Know the LORD'; for they shall all know me, from their least to their greatest, for I will forgive their iniquity, and their sins I will remember no more."
Ary samy tsy hampianatra ny namany sy ny rahalahiny avy intsony izy hoe: Mahalalà an’ i Jehovah; Fa samy hahalala Ahy avokoa izy rehetra. Hatramin’ ny kely indrindra ka hatramin’ ny lehibe indrindra, hoy Jehovah; Fa havelako ny helony, ary tsy hotsarovako intsony ny fahotany.
35 Thus says the LORD, who gives the sun for a light by day, and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, who stirs up the sea, so that its waves roar; the LORD of hosts is his name:
Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Izay manome ny masoandro ho fahazavana amin’ ny antoandro ary ny filahatry ny volana sy ny kintana ho fahazavana amin’ ny alina, Izay mampanonja ny ranomasina, ka dia mirohondrohona ny onjany, Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, no anarany:
36 "If this fixed order departs from before me," says the LORD, "then the descendants of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before me forever."
Raha miova eo anoloako izany filahatra izany, hoy Jehovah, dia hitsahatra tsy ho firenena eo anatrehako mandrakizay kosa ny taranak’ Isiraely.
37 Thus says the LORD: "If heaven above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth searched out beneath, then will I also cast off all the descendants of Israel for all that they have done," says the LORD.
Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Raha misy maharefy ny lanitra ambony, na mahafantatra ny fanorenan’ ny tany ambany, dia Izaho kosa hanary ny taranak’ Isiraely rehetra noho izay rehetra nataony, hoy Jehovah.
38 "Look, the days come," says the LORD, "that the city shall be built to the LORD from the Tower of Hananel to the Corner Gate.
Indro, avy ny andro, hoy Jehovah, Izay hanorenana ity tanàna ity indray ho an’ i Jehovah hatramin’ ny tilikambon’ i Hananela ka hatramin’ ny vavahady an-jorony.
39 The measuring line shall go out further straight onward to the hill Gareb, and shall turn about to Goah.
Ary ny famolaina dia mbola hohenjaniko mahitsy hatreo an-tampon’ ny tendrombohitra Gareba, dia hasangodina ho any Goa;
40 The whole valley of the dead bodies and of the ashes, and all the fields to the Kidron Valley, to the corner of the Horse Gate toward the east, shall be holy to the LORD; it shall not be plucked up, nor thrown down any more forever."
Ary ny lohasaham-paty sy lavenona rehetra sy ny saha rehetra hatramin’ ny Lohasahan-driaka Kidrona ka hatramin’ ny zoron’ ny vavahadin-tsoavaly atsinanana dia ho masìna ho an’ i Jehovah; Tsy hongotana na horavana intsony izy mandrakizay.
