Jeremiah 37
1 And king Zedekiah the son of Josiah reigned instead of Coniah the son of Jehoiakim, whom Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon made king in the land of Judah.
Nifehe ho mpanjaka t’i Tsidkia nandimbe i Konia ana’ Iehoiakime ana’ Iosia nanoe’ i Nebokadnetsare, mpanjaka’ i Bavele, mpanjaka an-tane Iehodày.
2 But neither he, nor his servants, nor the people of the land, hearkened to the words of the LORD, which he spoke by the prophet Jeremiah.
F’ie ndra o mpitoro’eo ndra ondati’ i taneio tsy nañaoñe ty tsara’ Iehovà nisaontsie’e añam’ Iirmeà mpitoky.
3 And Zedekiah the king sent Jehucal the son of Shelemiah and Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah the priest to the prophet Jeremiah, saying, Pray now to the LORD our God for us.
Nirahe’ i Tsidkia mpankaja t’Iehokale ana’ i Selemia naho i Tsefania mpisoroñe ana’ i Maasaia am’ Iirmeà mpitoky nanao ty hoe: Ehe, halalio ho anay t’Iehovà Andrianañaharentika.
4 Now Jeremiah came in and went out among the people: for they had not put him into prison.
Ie amy zay nifampitamboemboeñe am’ondatio t’Iirmeà; ie mboe tsy nagodoñe am-balabey ao,
5 Then Pharaoh's army had come from Egypt: and when the Chaldeans that besieged Jerusalem heard tidings of them, they departed from Jerusalem.
le niakatse an-tane Mitsraime o lahindefo’ i Paroo; aa ie jinanji’ o nte-Kasdy nañarikatoke Ierosalaimeo i talily ty am’ iereoy le nisitak’ am’ Ierosalaime.
6 Then came the word of the LORD to the prophet Jeremiah, saying,
Le niheo am’Iirmeà ty tsara’ Iehovà:
7 Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel; Thus shall ye say to the king of Judah, that sent you to me to inquire of me; Behold, Pharaoh's army, which hath come forth to help you, shall return to Egypt into their own land.
Hoe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele: Zao ty ho saontsie’ areo amy mpanjaka’ Iehodày nañirak’ anahareo amako hañontane: Himpoly mb’an-tane’e e Mitsraime añe o lian-dahindefo’ i Parò nionjoñe hañolotse anahareoo;
8 And the Chaldeans shall come again, and fight against this city, and take it, and burn it with fire.
le hibalike mb’etoa o nte Kasdio hialy ami’ty rova toy hitavañe vaho hamorototo aze amañ’afo.
9 Thus saith the LORD; Deceive not yourselves, saying, The Chaldeans will surely depart from us: for they will not depart.
Hoe t’Iehovà, Ko mamañahy vatañe ami’ty hoe: Tsy mahay tsy hienga antika o nte-Kasdio. Fa tsy hienga!
10 For though ye had smitten the whole army of the Chaldeans that fight against you, and there remained [but] wounded men among them, [yet] would they rise up every man in his tent, and burn this city with fire.
Ndra te fonga zinama’areo o lahindefon-te-Kasdy mialy ama’areoo, vaho tsy aman-tsehanga’e naho tsy ty fere an-kiboho’e ao, le ie ty ho nitroatse hamorototo ty rova toy amañ’afo.
11 And it came to pass, that when the army of the Chaldeans was broken up from Jerusalem for fear of Pharaoh's army,
Aa ie nisitake Ierosalaime o nte-Kasdio ty amy lian-dahin-defo’ i Paròy,
12 Then Jeremiah went out of Jerusalem to go into the land of Benjamin, to separate himself thence in the midst of the people.
le niakatse Ierosalaime t’Iirmeà hionjoñe mb’an-tane’ i Beniamine añe handrambe ty anjaran-tane’e añivo’ ondaty ao.
13 And when he was in the gate of Benjamin, a captain of the ward [was] there, whose name [was] Irijah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Hananiah; and he took Jeremiah the prophet, saying, Thou fallest away to the Chaldeans.
Ie pok’ an-dalambei’ i Beniamine eo le tsinepa’ ty mpijilo atao Iiria ana’ i Selemia ana’ i Kanania t’Iirmeà ami’ty hoe, Mitotse mb’ amo nte-Kasdio ni-heo.
14 Then said Jeremiah, [It is] false; I fall not away to the Chaldeans. But he hearkened not to him: so Irijah took Jeremiah, and brought him to the princes.
Le hoe t’Iirmeà: Vande izay; izaho tsy misitake mb’ amo nte-Kasdio. Fe tsy nihaoñe’e; aa le sinambo’ Iiria t’Iirmeà vaho nasese’e mb’amo roandriañeo.
15 Wherefore the princes were wroth with Jeremiah, and beat him, and put him in prison in the house of Jonathan the scribe: for they had made that the prison.
Niviñera’ o roandriañeo t’Iirmeà, le finofo’ iareo vaho najo’ iareo an-drohy añ’anjomba’ Ionatane silikitera ao, fa nanoeñe valabey ty ao.
16 When Jeremiah had entered into the dungeon, and into the cabins, and Jeremiah had remained there many days;
Aa ie fa najoroboñe añ’efets’ efe’ i valabeiy t’Iirmeà naho nitambatse ao andro maro t’Iirmeà,
17 Then Zedekiah the king sent, and took him out: and the king asked him secretly in his house, and said, Is there [any] word from the LORD? And Jeremiah said, There is: for, said he, thou shalt be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon.
le nampihitrife’ i Tsidkia amy zao re le nampihovañ’ aze naho natola’e añ’anjomba’e ao vaho nañontane aze, ty hoe: Hera ao ty tsara boak’ am’ Iehovà? Toe ao! hoe t’Iirmeà, fa hoe re: Hasese am-pitàm-panjaka’ i Bavele irehe.
18 Moreover Jeremiah said to king Zedekiah, In what have I offended against thee, or against thy servants, or against this people, that ye have put me in prison?
Tinovo’ Iirmeà amy Tsidkia mpanjaka’ Iehodà ty hoe, Ino ty tahiko ama’o ndra amo mpitoro’oo ndra am’ ondati’oo te nagodo’o am-po porozò ao?
19 Where [are] now your prophets who prophesied to you, saying, The king of Babylon shall not come against you, nor against this land?
Aia ka o mpitoki’o nitoky ama’o ty hoe: Tsy ho avy haname azo naho ty tane toy ty mpanjaka’ i Baveleo?
20 Therefore hear now, I pray thee, O my lord the king: let my supplication, I pray thee, be accepted before thee; that thou cause me not to return to the house of Jonathan the scribe, lest I die there.
Aa le ijanjiño abey, ry taleko mpanjaka: Ehe, tsendreño o halalikoo, le ko ampipolieñ’ ahy mb’añ’anjomba’ Ionatane silikitera mb’eo, tsy mone hivetrake ao.
21 Then Zedekiah the king commanded that they should commit Jeremiah into the court of the prison, and that they should give him daily a piece of bread out of the baker's street, until all the bread in the city should be consumed. Thus Jeremiah remained in the court of the prison.
Aa le nandily t’i Tsidkia, naho najò’ iareo an-kiririsa’ o mpigaritseo t’Iirmeà; vaho nanjotsoañe vonga-mofo boak’ andro hirik’ an-dalam-panoñak’ ao ampara’ te fonga nikapaike ty mofo’ i rovay. Aa le nidoñe an-kiririsam-pigaritse ao t’Iirmeà.
