Jeremiah 15
1 And Jehovah saith unto me: Though Moses and Samuel should stand before Me, My soul is not toward this people, Send from before My face, and they go out.
Ary hoy Jehovah tamiko: Na dia Mosesy sy Samoela aza no mitsangana eto anatrehako, dia tsy hankasitraka ity firenena ity ny fanahiko; roahy tsy ho eo anatrehako izy, eny, aoka hiala izy.
2 And it hath come to pass, when they say to thee, Whither do we go out? that thou hast said unto them, Thus said Jehovah: Those who [are] for death — to death, And those who are for the sword, to the sword, And those who are for famine, to famine, And those who are for captivity, to captivity.
Ary raha tàhiny izy manao aminao hoe: Hiala hankaiza izahay? dia ataovy aminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Izay ho amin’ ny areti-mandringana dia ho amin’ ny areti-mandringana, ary izay ho amin’ ny sabatra dia ho amin’ ny sabatra, ary izay ho amin’ ny mosary dia ho amin’ ny mosary, ary izay ho amin’ ny fahababoana dia ho amin’ ny fahababoana.
3 And I have appointed over them four kinds, an affirmation of Jehovah, The sword to slay, and the dogs to drag, And the fowl of the heavens, And the beast of the earth, to consume and to devour.
Ary manendry zavatra efatra karazana Aho hamelezana azy, hoy Jehovah: Dia ny sabatra hamono sy ny amboa hamiravira ary ny voro-manidina sy ny bibi-dia hihinana sy handany;
4 And I have given them for a trembling To all kingdoms of the earth, Because of Manasseh son of Hezekiah king of Judah, For that which he did in Jerusalem.
Ary manolotra azy ho mpanjenjena any amin’ ny fanjakana rehetra amin’ ny tany Aho noho ny amin’ i Manase, zanak’ i Hezekia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, dia noho izay nataony tany Jerosalema.
5 For who hath pity on thee, O Jerusalem? And who doth bemoan for thee? And who turneth aside to ask of thy welfare?
Fa iza no hangoraka anao, ry Jerosalema? Ary iza no hitsapa alahelo anao? Ary iza no hivily hanantsafa anao?
6 Thou — thou hast left Me — an affirmation of Jehovah, Backward thou goest, And I stretch out My hand against thee, And I destroy thee, I have been weary of repenting,
Hianao efa nahafoy Ahy sady efa nihemotra, hoy Jehovah, ka dia ahinjitro kosa ny tanako hamely anao, ka efa mandringana anao Aho, fa efa sasatra ny mandefitra.
7 And I scatter them with a fan, in the gates the land, I bereaved, I have destroyed My people, From their ways they turned not back.
Ary kororohiko amin’ ny fikororohana izy ho any amin’ ny vava-tany; Ary foanako anaka ny oloko, eny, aringako izy tsy mety miala amin’ ny fanaony mba hiverina izy.
8 Its widows have been more to Me than the sand of the seas, I brought in to them — against the mother — A young man — a spoiler — at noon. I caused to fall upon her suddenly, wrath and trouble.
Ny mpitondratenany mihamaro eo imasoko mihoatra noho ny fasika any an-dranomasina; Mitondra mpandringana ho ao aminy Aho handripaka ny renin’ ny zatovo, na dia mitataovovonana aza ny andro; Ataoko tonga tampoka aminy ny fanaintainana sy ny tahotra.
9 Languished hath the bearer of seven, She hath breathed out her spirit, Gone in hath her sun while yet day, It hath been ashamed and confounded, And their residue to the sword I give up before their enemies, An affirmation of Jehovah.
Izay niteraka fito dia mihaosa, miala aina izy, milentika mbola antoandro ny masoandrony, menarina sy mangaihay izy; Ary izay sisa aminy dia hatolotro ho voan’ ny sabatra eo anoloan’ ny fahavalony, hoy Jehovah.
10 Woe to me, my mother, For thou hast borne me a man of strife, And a man of contention to all the land, I have not lent on usury, Nor have they lent on usury to me — All of them are reviling me.
Lozako, ry neny, ny niterahanao ahy, Izay lehilahy ilana ady sy fifandirana eny amin’ ny tany rehetra! Tsy nampanàna vola aho, ary tsy nisy nanàna vola tamiko, nefa ozonin’ ny olona rehetra ihany aho.
11 Jehovah said, Did I not direct thee for good? Did not I intercede for thee in a time of evil, And in a time of adversity, with the enemy?
Dia hoy Jehovah: Nahafaka anao Aho hahasoa anao; Hataoko tonga mifona aminao tokoa ny fahavalo amin’ ny andro ahitan-doza sy amin’ izay andro mahory.
12 Doth one break iron — northern iron, and brass?
Mety tapaka va ny vy, dia ny vy avy any avaratra, na ny varahina?
13 Thy strength and thy treasures For a prey I do give — not for price, Even for all thy sins, and in all thy borders.
Ny fanananao sy ny rakitrao ao anatin’ ny fari-taninao rehetra dia hatolotro ho babo maimaimpoana noho ny fahotana rehetra izay nataonao;
14 And I have caused thine enemies To pass over into the land — Thou hast not known, For a fire hath been kindled in Mine anger, Against you it doth burn.
Ary hampitondraiko ny fahavalonao ho any amin’ ny tany tsy fantatrao izany; Fa arehitra ny afon’ ny fahatezerako, ka handoro anareo no irehetany.
15 Thou, Thou hast known, O Jehovah, Remember me, and inspect me, And take vengeance for me of my pursuers, In Thy long-suffering take me not away, Know — I have borne for Thee reproach.
Hianao no mahalala, Jehovah ô; Tsarovy aho, ka vangio, ary valio izay manenjika ahy; Aza dia mandefitra aminy Hianao, fandrao ho afaka ny aiko; Aoka ho fantatrao fa noho ny aminao no nitondrako latsa.
16 Thy words have been found, and I eat them, And Thy word is to me for a joy, And for the rejoicing of my heart, For Thy name is called on me, O Jehovah, God of Hosts.
Hitako ny teninao ka nohaniko, ary ny teninao no fifaliako sy firavoravoan’ ny foko; Fa nantsoina tamin’ ny anaranao aho, Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny maro ô.
17 I have not sat in an assembly of deriders, Nor do I exult, because of thy hand, — Alone I have sat, For [with] indignation Thou hast filled me.
Izaho tsy nipetraka na nifaly teo amin’ ny fivorian’ ny mpikorana, nitoetra irery aho noho ny fihazonan’ ny tananao ahy, fa nofenoinao fahatezerana aho.
18 Why hath my pain been perpetual? And my wound incurable? It hath refused to be healed, Thou art surely to me as a failing stream, Waters not stedfast.
Nahoana re no dia tsy mety mitsahatra ny faharariako, ary fatratra ny feriko ka tsy mety sitrana? Ho tonga amiko tahaka ny rano-trambo va Hianao, dia rano tsy azo itokiana?
19 Therefore, thus said Jehovah: If thou turnest back, then I bring thee back, Before Me thou dost stand, And if thou bringest out the precious from the vile, As My mouth thou art! They — they turn back unto thee, And thou dost not turn back unto them.
Koa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Raha hiverina ianao, dia horaisiko indray, ka dia hitsangana eo anatrehako ianao; Ary raha manavaka ny zava-tsoa hiala amin’ ny zava-poana ianao, dia ho solom-bavako; Hanatona anao indray ireny; Fa tsy ianao no hanatona azy,
20 And I have made thee to this people For a wall — brazen — fenced, And they have fought against thee, And they do not prevail against thee, For with thee [am] I to save thee, And to deliver thee — an affirmation of Jehovah,
Ary hataoko manda varahina mirova ho amin’ ity firenena ity ianao: Hiady aminao izy, nefa tsy hahaleo anao; Fa momba anao hamonjy sy hanafaka anao Aho, hoy Jehovah;
21 And I have delivered thee from the hand of evil doers, And I have ransomed thee From the hand of the terrible!
Ary hanafaka anao amin’ ny tanan’ ny ity ratsy fanahy Aho sy hanavotra anao amin’ ny tanan’ ny mpampahory.
