Jeremiah 50
1 The word that the LORD spoke against Babylon [and] against the land of the Chaldeans by Jeremiah the prophet.
Izao no teny nampilazain’ i Jehovah an’ i Jeremia mpaminany ny amin’ i Babylona dia ny tanin’ ny Kaldeana.
2 Declare ye among the nations, and publish, and set up a standard; publish, [and] conceal not: say, Babylon is taken, Bel is confounded, Merodach is broken in pieces; her idols are confounded, her images are broken in pieces.
Ambaraonareo, eny, torio any amin’ ny firenena, ary manangàna faneva, torio, fa aza afenina, ataovy hoe: Afaka Babylona! Mangaihay Bela, raiki-tahotra Merodaka! Eny, mangaihay ny sampiny, Raiki-tahotra ny sarin-javatra!
3 For out of the north there cometh a nation against her, which shall make her land desolate, and none shall dwell in it, they shall remove, they shall depart, both man and beast.
Fa misy firenena avy any avaratra miakatra hamely azy ka hahatonga ny taniny ho lao tsy hisy mponina intsony; Fa na ny olona na ny biby dia samy handositra ka ho lasa avokoa.
4 In those days, and in that time, saith the LORD, the children of Israel shall come, they and the children of Judah together, going and weeping; they shall go, and seek the LORD their God.
Amin’ izany andro izany sy amin’ izany fotoana izany, hoy Jehovah, dia ho avy ny Zanak’ Isirsely, dia izy mbamin’ ny taranak’ i Joda, eny, handeha izy sady hitomany eny am-pandehanana ka hitady an’ i Jehovah Andriamaniny.
5 They shall ask the way to Zion with their faces towards it, [saying], Come, and let us join ourselves to the LORD in a perpetual covenant [that] shall not be forgotten.
Hanontany ny lalana mankany Ziona izy sady hanatrika hankany ka hanao hoe: Avia, ka maneke ho an’ i Jehovah amin’ ny fanekena mandrakizay izay tsy hohadinoina.
6 My people have been lost sheep: their shepherds have caused them to go astray, they have turned them away [on] the mountains: they have gone from mountain to hill, they have forgotten their resting-place.
Ondry very ny oloko, fa ny mpiandry azy nampirenireny azy, eny, nampirenireny azy teny an-tendrombohitra izy; Nirenireny teny an-tendrombohitra sy teny an-kavoana ireny. Ka hadinony ny tany fandriany.
7 All that found them have devoured them: and their adversaries said, We offend not, because they have sinned against the LORD, the habitation of justice, even the LORD, the hope of their fathers.
Izay rehetra nahita azy dia nandringana azy, ary ny fahavalony nanao hoe: Tsy manan-keloka izahay, satria izy efa nanota tamin’ i Jehovah, fonenan’ ny fahamarinana, dia Jedovah, fanantenan’ ny razany.
8 Remove out of the midst of Babylon, and go forth from the land of the Chaldeans, and be as the he-goats before the flocks.
Mandosira hila an’ i Babylona, eny, mialà amin’ ny tanin’ ny Kaldeana, ary aoka ianareo ho tahaka ny anankiray izay tari-dalan’ ny ondry aman’ osy andiany.
9 For lo, I will raise and cause to come against Babylon an assembly of great nations from the north country: and they shall set themselves in array against her; from thence she shall be taken: their arrows [shall be] as of a mighty expert man; none shall return in vain.
Fa, indro, Izaho hamporisika sy hampiakatra firenena lehibe manao andiany avy any avaratra hamely an’ i Babylona; Ary hilahatra hamely azy ireo, ka avy ao no hanafahany azy; Ny zana-tsipìkany ho tahaka ny lehilahy mahery sady mahay, izay tsy miverina foana.
10 And Chaldea shall be a spoil: all that spoil her shall be satisfied, saith the LORD.
Ary Kaldea ho voababo; Izay rehetra mamabo azy dia ho afa-po, hoy Jehovah.
11 Because ye were glad, because ye rejoiced, O ye destroyers of my heritage, because ye are grown fat as the heifer at grass, and bellow as bulls;
Satria, mifaly sy miravoravo ianareo, ry mpamabo ny lovako, eny, mifalihavanja toy ny ombivavy kely mively vary ianareo sady maneno toy ny soavaly matanjaka;
12 Your mother shall be greatly confounded; she that bore you shall be ashamed: behold, the hindermost of the nations [shall be] a wilderness, a dry land, and a desert.
Dia ho menatra indrindra ny reninareo, hangaihay ilay niteraka anareo; Indro, ny faran’ ny firenena, efitra sy tany karankaina ary tani-hay!
13 Because of the wrath of the LORD it shall not be inhabited, but it shall be wholly desolate: every one that goeth by Babylon shall be astonished, and hiss at all her plagues.
Noho ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah dia tsy honenana Babylona. Fa ho tonga tany lao avokoa; Izay rehetra mandalo azy dia ho gaga ka hisitrisitra noho ny loza rehetra namelezana azy.
14 Put yourselves in array against Babylon on every side: all ye that bend the bow, shoot at her, spare no arrows: for she hath sinned against the LORD.
Milahara manodidina hamely an’ i Babylona, ianareo rehetra izay manenjana tsipìka; Asio izy, fa aza tsitsina ny zana-tsipìka, fa tamin’ i Jehovah no nanotany.
15 Shout against her on every side; she hath given her hand: her foundations are fallen, her walls are thrown down: for it [is] the vengeance of the LORD: take vengeance upon her; as she hath done, do to her.
Akoray manodidina izy! Fa efa nikoy; Nirodana ny bateriny, rava ny mandany; Fa famalian’ i Jehovah izany. Valio izy, eny, toy ny efa nataony no mba ataovinareo aminy kosa.
16 Cut off the sower from Babylon, and him that handleth the sickle in the time of harvest: for fear of the oppressing sword they shall turn every one to his people, and they shall flee every one to his own land.
Aringano tsy ho any Babylona ny mpamafy sy izay mitana fijinjana amin’ ny fararano; Fa noho ny sabatra mandoza dia samy hihodina ho any amin’ ny fireneny avy izy, ary samy handositra ho any amin’ ny taniny avy.
17 Israel [is] a scattered sheep; the lions have driven [him] away: first the king of Assyria hath devoured him; and last this Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon hath broken his bones.
Ondry iray voavily ny Isiraely, Liona no nanenjika azy; Voalohany dia ny mpanjakan’ i Asyria no nandany azy. Ary farany dia ity Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ i Babylona, ity no nanapatapaka ny taolany.
18 Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will punish the king of Babylon and his land, as I have punished the king of Assyria.
Koa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely: Indro, hovaliko ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona sy ny taniny toy ny efa namaliako ny mpanjakan’ i Asyria.
19 And I will bring Israel again to his habitation, and he shall feed on Carmel and Bashan, and his soul shall be satisfied upon mount Ephraim and Gilead.
Ary hampodiko ho any amin’ ny saha fiandrasana azy indray ny Isiraely, ka hihinana ao Karmela sy Basana izy; Ary any an-tany havoan’ i Daima sy Gileada no hahavoky azy.
20 In those days, and in that time, saith the LORD, the iniquity of Israel shall be sought for, and [there shall] be none; and the sins of Judah, and they shall not be found: for I will pardon them whom I reserve.
Amin’ izany andro izany sy amin’ izany fotoana izany, hoy Jehovah, dia hotadiavina izay heloky ny Isiraely, fa tsy hisy; Ary izay fahotan’ ny Joda, fa tsy ho hita; Satria havelako ny helok’ izay sisa narovako.
21 Go up against the land of Merathaim, [even] against it, and against the inhabitants of Pekod: waste and utterly destroy after them, saith the LORD, and do according to all that I have commanded thee.
Iakaro Ibefikomiana sy ny mponina ao Arapamaliana; Ravao sy aringano manarakaraka azy, hoy Jehovah, ary manaova araka izay rehetra nandidiako anao.
22 A sound of battle [is] in the land, and of great destruction.
Misy tabataban’ ady amin’ ny tany sy fandringanana be.
23 How is the hammer of the whole earth cut asunder and broken! how is Babylon become a desolation among the nations!
Indrisy! tapaka sy torotoro ilay fampohazan’ ny tany rehetra; Indrisy! Babylona efa tonga figagana any amin’ ny firenena.
24 I have laid a snare for thee, and thou art also taken, O Babylon, and thou wast not aware: thou art found, and also caught, because thou hast striven against the LORD.
Nofandrihako ianao, ry Babylona, ka voa, nefa tsy fantatrao akory; Hita ka voasambotra koa ianao, Satria nila ady tamin’ i Jehovah.
25 The LORD hath opened his armory, and hath brought forth the weapons of his indignation: for this [is] the work of the Lord GOD of hosts in the land of the Chaldeans.
Novohan’ i Jehovah ny firaketany. Ka navoakany ny fitaovan’ ny fahatezerany; Fa misy hataon’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, any amin’ ny tanin’ ny Kaldeana.
26 Come against her from the utmost border, open her store-houses: cast her up as heaps, and destroy her utterly: let nothing of her be left.
Avia avokoa ianareo rehetra hamely azy; Vohay ny trano fitoeran-kanina, atobitobio toy ny antontan-bary, ka levony avokoa izay ao; Fa aza avela hisy sisa ho azy.
27 Slay all her bullocks; let them go down to the slaughter: woe to them! for their day is come, the time of their visitation.
Vonoy ireo ombilahy rehetra, ary aoka hidina ho any amin’ ny famonoana izy. Mahita loza izy, fa tonga ny androny, dia ny fotoana hamaliana azy.
28 The voice of them that flee and escape from the land of Babylon, to declare in Zion the vengeance of the LORD our God, the vengeance of his temple.
Injany! misy feon’ izay mandositra sy izay afaka avy any amin’ ny tany Babylona, hanambara ny famalian’ i Jehovah Andriamanitsika ao Ziona, dia ny famaliana noho ny tempoliny.
29 Call together the archers against Babylon: all ye that bend the bow, encamp against it on every side; let none thereof escape: recompense her according to her work; according to all that she hath done, do to her: for she hath been proud against the LORD, against the Holy One of Israel.
Antsoy ny mpandefa zana-tsipìka hamely an’ i Babylona. Dia ny mpanenjana tsipìka rehetra; Mitobia manodidina hamely azy; Aoka tsy hisy ho afaka izy; Valio araka ny asany izy, eny, araka ny asa rehetra nataony, no mba ataovy aminy kosa; Fa niavonavona tamin’ i Jehovah izy, dia tamin’ ny Iray Masin’ ny Isiraely.
30 Therefore her young men shall fall in the streets, and all her men of war shall be cut off in that day, saith the LORD.
Koa hiampatrampatra eny an-kalalahana ny zatovony, ary ho ringana ny miaramilany rehetra amin’ izany andro izany, hoy Jehovah.
31 Behold, I [am] against thee, [O thou] most proud, saith the Lord GOD of hosts: for thy day is come, the time [that] I will visit thee.
Indro, hiatrika aminao Aho, ry Ifiavonavonana, hoy Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro; Fa tonga ny andronao, dia ny fotoana hamaliako anao.
32 And the most proud shall stumble and fall, and none shall raise him up: and I will kindle a fire in his cities, and it shall devour all around him.
Ho tafintohina Ifiavonavonana, dia ho lavo, ka tsy hisy hanarina azy; Ary handrehitra afo ao an-tanànany Aho, ka handevona ny manodidina azy rehetra izany.
33 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; The children of Israel and the children of Judah [were] oppressed together: and all that took them captives held them fast; they refused to let them go.
Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro: Niara-nampahorina ny Zanak’ Isiraely sy ny taranak’ i Joda; Ary izay rehetra namabo azy dia mihazona azy mafy ka tsy mety mandefa azy.
34 Their Redeemer [is] strong; the LORD of hosts [is] his name: he will thoroughly plead their cause, that he may give rest to the land, and disquiet the inhabitants of Babylon.
Mahery ny Mpanavotra azy, Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, no anarany; Handahatra ny adiny tokoa Izy, mba hampiadana ny tany sy hampangovitra ny mponina any Babylona kosa.
35 A sword [is] upon the Chaldeans, saith the LORD, and upon the inhabitants of Babylon, and upon her princes, and upon her wise [men].
Indro! hisy sabatra hamely ny Kaldeana mbamin’ ny mponina any Babylona sy ny mpanapaka azy sy ny olon-kendriny, hoe Jehovah.
36 A sword [is] upon the liars; and they shall be sottish: a sword [is] upon her mighty men; and they shall be dismayed.
Indro! hisy sabatra hamely ny mpibedibedy, ka ho very saina izy; Indro! hisy sabatra hamely ny lehilahy maheriny, ka hivadi-po izy.
37 A sword [is] upon their horses, and upon their chariots, and upon all the mingled people that [are] in the midst of her; and they shall become as women: a sword [is] upon her treasures; and they shall be robbed.
Indro! hisy sabatra hamely ny soavaliny sy ny kalesiny mbamin’ ny olona samy hafa firenena rehetra ao aminy, ka ho tonga toy ny vehivavy ireny! Indro! Hisy sabatra hamely ny firaketany, ka horobaina izany.
38 A drouth [is] upon her waters; and they shall be dried up: for it [is] the land of graven images, and they are mad upon [their] idols.
Ny fihantonan’ ny andro no mahatankina ny ranony; Fa tany be sarin-javatra voasokitra izy, ary ny sampiny mahatahotra mahadala azy.
39 Therefore the wild beasts of the desert with the wild beasts of the isles, shall dwell [there], and the owls shall dwell therein: and it shall be no more inhabited for ever; neither shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation.
Koa ny bibi-dia any an-efitra sy ny kary sy ny ostritsa no honina ao; Tsy honenana intsony mandrakizay izy ary tsy hitoerana hatramin’ ny taranaka fara-mandimby.
40 As God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah and the neighboring [cities], saith the LORD; [so] shall no man abide there, neither shall any son of man dwell therein.
Toy ny nandravan’ Andriamanitra an’ i Sodoma sy Gomora mbamin’ ny tanàna eny akaikiny, hoy Jehovah, no tsy hisian’ olona honina any na zanak’ olombelona hivahiny any.
41 Behold, a people shall come from the north, and a great nation, and many kings shall be raised up from the borders of the earth.
Indro, misy firenena avy any avaratra, dia firenena lehibe sy mpanjaka maro no mitsangana avy any amin’ ny faran’ ny tany.
42 They shall hold the bow and the lance: they [are] cruel, and will not show mercy: their voice shall roar like the sea, and they shall ride upon horses, [every one] put in array, like a man to the battle, against thee, O daughter of Babylon.
Tsipika sy lefona no entiny; Lozabe sy tsy mamindra fo izy, ny feony dia mirohondrohona toy ny ranomasina, sady mitaingin-tsoavaly izy ary voaomana tahaka ny lehilahy ho amin’ ny ady, hamely anao, ry Babylona zanakavavy.
43 The king of Babylon hath heard the report of them, and his hands became feeble: anguish took hold of him, [and] pangs as of a woman in travail.
Efa ren’ ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona ny lazany, ka miraviravy tànany izy; Fahoriana no mahazo azy, eny, fanaintainana tahaka ny vehivavy raha miteraka.
44 Behold, he shall come up like a lion from the swelling of Jordan to the habitation of the strong: but I will make them suddenly run away from her: and who [is] a chosen [man], [that] I may appoint over her? for who [is] like me? and who will appoint me the time? and who [is] that shepherd that will stand before me?
Indro, toy ny fiakatry ny liona avy ao amin’ ny kirihitrala eny amoron’ i Jordana no hiakarany ho any amin’ ny misy ahitra mateza; Nefa hampandosiriko tampoka hiala ao aminy izy, ary izay olona anankiray voafidy no hotendreko hanapaka azy; Fa iza no tahaka Ahy, ary iza no hifandahatra amiko? Ary iza moa no mpiandry ondry mahajanona eo anatrehako?
45 Therefore hear ye the counsel of the LORD, that he hath taken against Babylon; and his purposes, that he hath purposed against the land of the Chaldeans: Surely the least of the flock shall draw them out: surely he shall make [their] habitation desolate with them.
Koa henoy ny saina avy amin’ i Jehovah, izay nosaininy hamelezana an’ i Babylona, sy ny heviny izay noheveriny hamelezana ny tanin’ ny Kaldeana: Hoviraviraina tokoa ireny, dia ny kely indrindra amin’ ny ondry; Ho gaga azy tokoa ny saha fiandrasana azy.
46 At the noise of the taking of Babylon the earth is moved, and the cry is heard among the nations.
Noho ny antsoantso hoe: “Efa afaka Babylona”, dia mihorohoro ny tany, ary ny fitarainana dia re any amin’ ny firenena.
