Jeremiah 22
1 Thus said Jehovah, 'Go down [to] the house of the king of Judah, and thou hast spoken there this word, and hast said,
Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Midìna any amin’ ny tranon’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Joda, ka lazao any izao teny izao hoe:
2 Hear a word of Jehovah, O king of Judah, who art sitting on the throne of David, thou, and thy servants, and thy people, who are coming in at these gates,
Henoy ny tenin’ i Jehovah, ry mpanjakan’ ny Joda, izay mipetraka amin’ ny seza fiandrianan’ i Davida, dia ianao sy ny mpanomponao ary ny vahoakanao izay miditra amin’ ireto vavahady ireto:
3 Thus said Jehovah: Do ye judgment and righteousness, And deliver the plundered from the hand of the oppressor, And sojourner, orphan, and widow, ye do not oppress nor wrong, And innocent blood ye do not shed in this place.
Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Manaova fitsarana sy fahamarinana ianareo, ka afaho amin’ ny tanan’ ny mpampahory ny olona voaroba; ary aza mampahory na mampidi-doza amin’ ny vahiny sy ny kamboty ary ny mpitondratena, ary aza mandatsaka rà marina amin’ ity fitoerana ity.
4 For, if ye certainly do this thing, Then come in by the gates of this house Have kings sitting for David on his throne, Riding on chariot, and on horses, He, and his servants, and his people.
Fa raha mankatò izany teny izany tokoa ianareo, dia hisy mpanjaka mipetraka eo amin’ ny seza fiandrianan’ i Davida hiditra amin’ ity vavahady ity mitaingin-kalesy sy soavaly, dia izy sy ny mpanompony ary ny vahoakany.
5 And if ye do not hear these words, By myself I have sworn — an affirmation of Jehovah, That this house is for a desolation.
Fa raha tsy hihaino izany teny izany kosa ianareo, dia ny tenako no ianianako, hoy Jehovah, fa ho lao tokoa ity trano ity.
6 For thus said Jehovah, Concerning the house of the king of Judah: Gilead [art] thou to Me — head of Lebanon, If not — I make thee a wilderness, Cities not inhabited.
Fa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah ny amin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Joda sy ny mpianakaviny: Tahaka an’ i Gileada sy ny tampon’ i Libanona amiko ianao, nefa hataoko tonga efitra sy tanàna tsy onenana.
7 And I have separated for thee destroyers, Each with his weapons, And they have cut down the choice of thy cedars, And have cast them on the fire.
Ary hanendry mpandrava hamely anao Aho, Izay samy hitondra ny fiadiany avy; Dia hokapain’ ireo ny sederanao voafantina ka hariany ao anaty afo.
8 And many nations have passed by this city, And they have said, each to his neighbour, For what hath Jehovah done thus to this great city?
Ary firenena maro no handalo ity tanàna ity, ka samy hanao amin’ ny namany avy hoe: Nahoana Jehovah no dia nanao izao tamin’ ity tanàna lehibe ity?
9 And they have said, 'Because that they have forsaken The covenant of Jehovah their God, And bow themselves to other gods, and serve them.'
Dia hovaliana hoe: Noho ny nahafoizany ny faneken’ i Jehovah Andriamaniny sy ny nivavahany tamin’ andriamani-kafa sy ny nanompoany ireny.
10 Ye do not weep for the dead, nor bemoan for him, Weep ye sore for the traveller, For he doth not return again, Nor hath he seen the land of his birth.
Aza mitomany ny maty ianareo, na misaona azy; Mitomania dia mitomania noho ilay efa lasan-ko babo; Fa tsy hiverina intsony izy, na hahita ny tany nahaterahany.
11 For thus said Jehovah concerning Shallum son of Josiah king of Judah, who is reigning instead of Josiah his father, who hath gone forth from this place: He doth not turn back hither again;
Fa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah ny amin’ i Saloma, zanak’ i Josia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, dia ilay nanjaka nandimby an’ i Josia rainy, saingy efa niala tamin’ ity tany ity: Tsy hiverina atỳ intsony izy,
12 For in the place whither they have removed him he dieth, And this land he doth not see again.
Fa ho faty any amin’ ny tany izay nitondrana azy ho babo ka tsy hahita ity tany ity intsony.
13 Woe to him who is building his house by unrighteousness, And his upper chambers by injustice, On his neighbour he layeth service for nought, And his wage he doth not give to him.
Lozan’ izay manorina ny tranony amin’ ny tsy rariny sy ny ati-tranony ambony amin’ ny fitaka ka mampiasa maina ny namany, fa tsy mandoa ny karamany,
14 Who is saying, 'I build for myself a large house, And airy upper chambers,' And he hath cut out for himself its windows, Ceiled with cedar, and painted with vermilion.
Sady manao hoe: Hanao trano lehibe ho ahy aho sy ati-trano ambony malalaka, ary holoahany hisy varavarankely sady hasiany valin-drihana sedera sy hohosorana loko mena.
15 Dost thou reign, because thou art fretting thyself in cedar? Thy father — did he not eat and drink? Yea, he did judgment and righteousness, Then [it is] well with him.
Moa dia ho mpanjaka ianao, saingy ataonao be sedera noho ny an’ ny sasany ny tranonao? Tsy efa nihinana sy nisotro va rainao sady nanao fitsarana sy fahamarinana? Tamin’ izany dia nambinina izy.
16 He decided the cause of the poor and needy, Then [it is] well — is it not to know Me? An affirmation of Jehovah.
Nitsara ny tenin’ ny ory sy ny malahelo izy; Tamin’ izany dia nambinina izy. Tsy izany va no fahalalana Ahy? hoy Jehovah.
17 But thine eyes and thy heart are not, Except on thy dishonest gain, And on shedding of innocent blood, And on oppression, and on doing of violence.
Nefa tsy misy alehan’ ny masonao sy ny eritreritrao afa-tsy ny filan-karena ihany sy ny fandatsahana rà marina ary ny fampahoriana sy ny fanaovana an-keriny.
18 Therefore, thus said Jehovah concerning Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah: They do not lament for him, Ah, my brother, and Ah, sister, They do not lament for him, Ah, lord, and Ah, his honour.
Ary noho izany dia izao no lazain’ i Jehovah ny amin’ i Joiakima, zanak’ i Josia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda: Ny olona tsy hisaona azy hoe: Indrisy, tompokolahy! na: Indrisy, tompokovavy! Ny olona tsy hitomany azy hoe: Indrisy, tompoko! na: Indrisy ny voninahiny!
19 The burial of an ass — he is buried, Dragged and cast out thence to the gates of Jerusalem.
Halevina toy ny fandevina boriky izy, ka hotaritarihina sy hariana any ivelan’ ny vavahadin’ i Jerosalema.
20 Go up to Lebanon, and cry, And in Bashan give forth thy voice, And cry from Abarim, For destroyed have been all loving thee.
Miakara any Libanona, ka mitaraina; Dia asandrato any Basana ny feonao, ary mitaraina any Abarima; Fa ringana avokoa ireo tia anao.
21 I have spoken unto thee in thine ease, Thou hast said, 'I do not hearken,' This [is] thy way from thy youth, For thou hast not hearkened to My voice.
Efa niteny taminao Aho, fony ianao mbola nipetraka tsy nanana ahiahy; Nefa hoy ianao: Izaho tsy hihaino. Fanaonao hatry ny fony ianao mbola tanora ny tsy mihaino ny teniko.
22 All thy friends consume doth wind, And thy lovers into captivity do go, Surely then thou art ashamed, And hast blushed for all thy wickedness.
Ny mpitondra anao rehetra ho paohin’ ny rivotra, ary ireo tia anao ho lasan-ko babo, eny, ho menatra sy hangaihay tokoa ianao noho ny haratsianao rehetra.
23 O dweller in Lebanon, making a nest among cedars, How gracious hast thou been when pangs come to thee, Pain — as of a travailing woman.
Ry ilay mponina any Libanona, izay manao ny akaninao eny amin’ ny sedera, indrisy ny fisentoanao, raha iharan’ ny faharariana ianao, toy ny fanaintainan’ ny vehivavy raha miteraka!
24 I live — an affirmation of Jehovah, Though Coniah son of Jehoiakim king of Judah Were a seal on My right hand, Surely thence I draw thee away,
Raha velona koa Aho, hoy Jehovah, na dia ho peratra fanombohan-kase amin’ ny tanako ankavanana aza ianao, ry Jekonia, zanak’ i Joiakima, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, dia hotsoahako hiala eo ianao,
25 And I have given thee into the hand of those seeking thy life, And into hands of which thou art afraid, Into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, And into the hand of the Chaldeans.
Ka hatolotro eo an-tànan’ izay mitady ny ainao sy eo an-tànan’ izay atahoranao, dia eo an-tànan’ i Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ i Babylona, sy eo amin’ ny tanan’ ny Kaldeana.
26 And I have cast thee, And thy mother who bore thee, unto another country, Where ye were not born, and there do ye die.
Ary ianao sy ny reninao niteraka anao dia hariako any an-tany hafa izay tsy nahaterahanareo, ka any no hahafatesanareo.
27 And to the land whither they are lifting up their soul to return, Thither they do not return.
Fa ny tany iriny hiverenana dia tsy hiverenany.
28 A grief — a despised broken thing — is this man Coniah? A vessel in which there is no pleasure? Wherefore have they been cast up and down, He and his seed, Yea, they were cast on to a land that they knew not?
Moa ity lehilahy Jekonia ity dia vilany vingavingaina sy efa hotorotoroina ary fanaka tsy mahafinaritra va? Koa nahoana no nariana izy sy ny taranany ka natsipy any amin’ ny tany tsy fantany?
29 Earth, earth, earth, hear a word of Jehovah,
Ry tany! ry tany! ry tany! Henoy ny tenin’ i Jehovah.
30 Thus said Jehovah: Write ye this man childless, A man — he doth not prosper in his days, For none of his seed doth prosper, Sitting on the throne of David, And ruling again in Judah!
Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Soratanareo ho tsy manam-para ity lehilahy ity, dia lehilahy tsy hambinina amin’ ny androny; Fa tsy hisy amin’ ny taranany izay hambinina Hipetraka eo amin’ ny seza fiandrianan’ i Davida, na hanapaka ao amin’ ny Joda intsony
