Jeremiah 23
1 Woe to shepherds destroying, And scattering the flock of My pasture, An affirmation of Jehovah.
Lozan’ ireo mpiandry izay manimba sy mampihahaka ny ondry fiandriko, hoy Jehovah
2 Therefore, thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, Against the shepherds who feed My people, Ye have scattered My flock, and drive them away, And have not inspected them, Lo, I am charging on you the evil of your doings, An affirmation of Jehovah.
Koa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, ny amin’ ireo mpiandry izay miandry ny oloko: Hianareo efa nampihahaka ny ondriko sy nandronjindronjina azy, fa tsy nanolokolo azy; Koa, indro, hovaliako ianareo noho ny faharatsian’ ny ataonareo, hoe Jehovah
3 And I do gather the remnant of My flock Out of all the lands whither I drove them, And have brought them back unto their fold, And they have been fruitful, and multiplied.
Ary Izaho hanangona ny ondriko sisa avy any amin’ ny tany rehetra izay nandroahako azy ka hampodiko ho any amin’ ny saha niandrasana azy, dia hitombo sy hihamaro izy
4 And I have raised for them shepherds, And they have fed them, And they fear no more, nor are affrighted, Nor are they lacking — an affirmation of Jehovah.
Ary hanendry mpiandry ho azy Aho, ka dia hiandry azy ireo; Ka tsy hatahotra na hivadi-po intsony izy, sady tsy hisy tsy ho voavory, hoy Jehovah.
5 Lo, days are coming — an affirmation of Jehovah, And I have raised to David a righteous shoot, And a king hath reigned and acted wisely, And done judgment and righteousness in the earth.
Indro, avy ny andro, hoy Jehovah, izay hananganako Rantsana marina ho an’ i Davida, ka hanjaka Izy sady ho hendry ary hanao fitsarana sy fahamarinana amin’ ny tany.
6 In his days is Judah saved, and Israel dwelleth confidently, And this his name that Jehovah proclaimeth him, 'Our Righteousness.'
Amin’ ny androny no hamonjena ny Joda, sy handrian’ ny Isiraely fahizay, ary izao no anarany izay hanononana Azy: Jehovah Fahamarinantsika.
7 Therefore, lo, days are coming, An affirmation of Jehovah, And they do not say any more, Jehovah liveth who brought up The sons of Israel out of the land of Egypt,
Koa, indro, avy ny andro, hoy Jehovah, Izay tsy hanaovana intsony hoe: Raha velona koa Jehovah, Izay nitondra ny Zanak’ Isiraely niakatra avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta;
8 But — Jehovah liveth, who brought up, And who brought in, the seed of the house of Israel, From the land of the north, And from all the lands whither I drove them, And they have dwelt on their own ground!
Fa izao kosa: Raha velona koa Jehovah, Izay nitondra ny taranak’ Isiraely niakatra sady nitarika azy avy tany amin’ ny tany avaratra sy avy tany amin’ ny tany rehetra izay nandroahako azy; Dia honina ao amin’ ny taniny izy.
9 In reference to the prophets: Broken hath been my heart in my midst, Fluttered have all my bones, I have been as a man — a drunkard, And as a man — wine hath passed over him, Because of Jehovah, and of His holy words.
Ny amin’ ireo mpaminany. Montsamotsana ato anatiko ny foko, mangozohozo ny taolako rehetra, toy ny olona mamo aho, ary toy ny lehilahy leon-divay, noho ny amin’ i Jehovah sy noho ny teniny masìna.
10 For of adulterers hath the land been full, For because of these hath the land mourned, Dried up hath been the pleasant places of the wilderness, And their course is evil, and their might — not right.
Fa feno mpijangajanga ny tany; Ary noho ny ozona no isaonan’ ny tany, efa maina ny kijana any an-efitra; Ary efa ratsy ny fanaon’ ny olona, sady ny tsi-fahamarinana no heriny.
11 For both prophet and priest have been profane, Yea, in My house I found their wickedness, An affirmation of Jehovah.
Fa na mpaminany na mpisorona dia samy mpihatsaravelatsihy avokoa; Na dia tao an-tranoko aza dia mbola hitako ihany ny haratsiany, hoy Jehovah.
12 Therefore is their way to them as slippery places, Into thick darkness they are driven, And they have fallen in it, For I bring in against them evil, The year of their inspection, An affirmation of Jehovah.
Koa dia ho toy ny lala-malama amin’ ny aizim-pito ny lalany; Haronjina izy, ka dia ho potraka ao; Fa hahatonga loza aminy Aho amin’ ny taona hamaliana azy, hoy Jehovah.
13 And in prophets of Samaria I have seen folly, They have prophesied by Baal, And cause my people — Israel — to err.
Ary tamin’ ny mpaminanin’ i Samaria no nahitako zavatra mahaloiloy: Naminany tamin’ i Bala izy ka nampivily ny Isiraely oloko,
14 And in prophets of Jerusalem I have seen a horrible thing, Committing adultery, and walking falsely, Yea, they strengthened the hands of evil doers, So that they have not turned back Each from his wickedness, They have been to me — all of them — as Sodom, And its inhabitants as Gomorrah.
Ary tamin’ ny mpaminanin’ i Jerosalema koa no nahitako zavatra mahatsiravina; Mijangajanga sy mandeha araka ny lainga izy sady mampahery ny tanan’ ny mpanao ratsy, ka samy tsy miala amin’ ny faharatsiany; Eny, izy rehetra dia tonga tahaka an’ i Sodoma raha amiko, ary ny mponina ao dia tonga tahaka an’ i Gomora.
15 Therefore, thus said Jehovah of Hosts, concerning the prophets: Lo, I am causing them to eat wormwood, And have caused them to drink water of gall, For, from prophets of Jerusalem Hath profanity gone forth to all the land.
Koa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, ny amin’ ireo mpaminany ireo: Indro, hofahanako zava-mahafaty izy sy hampisotroiko rano mangidy, satria avy tamin’ ny mpaminanin’ i Jerosalema no nivoahan’ ny faharatsiana ho any amin’ ny tany rehetra.
16 Thus said Jehovah of Hosts: Ye do not hearken unto the words Of the prophets who are prophesying to you, They are making you vain things, A vision of their own heart they speak, Not from the mouth of Jehovah.
Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro: Aza mihaino ny tenin’ ny mpaminany izay maminany aminareo, fa manadala anareo ireo; Ny fahitana avy ao am-pony ihany no lazainy, fa tsy izay aloaky ny vavan’ i Jehovah.
17 Saying diligently to those despising The word of Jehovah: Peace is for you, And [to] every one walking in the stubbornness of his heart they have said: Evil doth not come in unto you.
Milaza mandrakariva amin’ izay manamavo Ahy izy hoe: Jehovah nanao hoe: Hahita fiadanana ianareo, ary amin’ izay rehetra mandeha araka ny ditry ny fony hoe: Tsy hisy loza hanjo anareo.
18 For who hath stood in the counsel of Jehovah, And seeth and heareth His word? Who hath regarded My word, and hearkeneth?
Fa iza moa no efa isan’ ny mpihevitra teo amin’ i Jehovah ka nahita sy nandre ny teniny? Iza no nanongilana ny sofiny taminy ka nihaino ny teniny?
19 Lo, a whirlwind of Jehovah — Fury hath gone out, even a piercing whirlwind, On the head of the wicked it stayeth.
He! ny tadion’ i Jehovah! Mivoaka ny fahatezerana sy ny tadio mitambolimbolina ka miantonta amin’ ny lohan’ ny ratsy fanahy.
20 The anger of Jehovah doth not turn back Till His doing, and till His establishing, The thoughts of His heart, In the latter end of the days ye attend to it With understanding.
Ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah tsy ho afaka ambara-panefany sy ambara-panatanterany ny hevitry ny fony; Mbola ho fantatrareo marimarina izany any am-parany.
21 I have not sent the prophets, and they have run, I have not spoken unto them, and they have prophesied.
Tsy naniraka ireo mpaminany ireo Aho, kanefa nidodododo ihany izy, tsy niteny taminy Aho, kanefa naminany ihany izy.
22 But — if they stood in My counsel, Then they cause My people to hear My words, And they turn them back from their evil way, And from the evil of their doings.
Fa raha isan’ ny mpihevitra teo amiko izy, dia ho nitory ny teniko tamin’ ny oloko izy ka namerina azy hiala tamin’ ny lalany ratsy sy tamin’ ny faharatsian’ ny nataony.
23 A God near [am] I — an affirmation of Jehovah, And not a God afar off?
Moa Andriamanitra etỳ akaiky ihany va Aho? hoy Jehovah. Fa tsy Andriamanitra any lavitra any koa?
24 Is any one hidden in secret places, And I see him not? an affirmation of Jehovah, Do not I fill the heavens and the earth? An affirmation of Jehovah.
Moa misy olona mahafin-tena ao amin’ ny fierena va ka tsy ho hitako? hoy Jehovah. Tsy manerana ny lanitra sy ny tany va Aho? hoy Jehovah.
25 I have heard that which the prophets said, Who prophesy in My name falsehood, saying, 'I have dreamed, I have dreamed.'
Efa reko ny nolazain’ ny mpaminany, Izay naminany lainga tamin’ ny anarako hoe: Nanonofy aho, nanonofy aho.
26 Till when is it in the heart of the prophets? The prophets of falsehood, Yea, prophets of the deceit of their heart,
Mandra-pahoviana? Moa ao am-pon’ ireo mpaminany izay maminany lainga sy maminany araka ny fitaky ny fony va?
27 Who are devising to cause My people To forget My name by their dreams, That they recount each to his neighbour, As their fathers forgot my name for Baal.
Ny hampanadino ny oloko ny anarako amin’ ny nofiny izay lazainy amin’ ny namany avy, toy ny nanadinoan’ ny razany ny anarako noho ny amin’ i Bala?
28 The prophet with whom [is] a dream, Let him recount the dream, And he with whom [is] My word, Let him truly speak My word. What — to the straw with the corn? An affirmation of Jehovah.
Ny mpaminany izay manonofy dia aoka hilaza nofy, ary izay manana ny teniko dia aoka hanambara marina ny teniko. Fa moa inona izay mololo, raha oharina amin’ ny vary? hoy Jehovah.
29 Is it not thus? My word [is] as a fire, An affirmation of Jehovah. And as a hammer — it breaketh in pieces a rock.
Tsy tahaka ny afo va ny teniko? hoy Jehovah, ary tsy tahaka ny kanonta manorotoro ny vatolampy va?
30 Therefore, lo, I [am] against the prophets, An affirmation of Jehovah, Stealing My words each from his neighbour.
Koa, indro, fa hasiako ny mpaminany, hoy Jehovah, izay samy mangalatra ny teniko amin’ ny namany avy.
31 Lo, I [am] against the prophets, An affirmation of Jehovah, Who are making smooth their tongue, And they affirm — an affirmation.
Indro, hoy Jehovah, hasiako ny mpaminany, izay mampiteny ny lelany hoe: Hoy Izy.
32 Lo, I [am] against the prophets of false dreams, An affirmation of Jehovah, And they recount them, and cause my people to err, By their falsehoods, and by their instability, And I — I have not sent them, Nor have I commanded them, And they are not at all profitable to this people, An affirmation of Jehovah.
Indro, hasiako izay maminany nofy lainga, hoy Jehovah, ary milaza izany ka mampivily ny oloko amin’ ny laingany sy ny fandokafany tena; Nefa Izaho tsy naniraka azy na nandidy azy tsinona, ka dia tsy mahasoa ity firenena ity akory izy, hoy Jehovah.
33 And when this people, or the prophet, Or a priest, doth ask thee, saying, What [is] the burden of Jehovah? Then thou hast said unto them: Ye [are] the burden, and I have left you, An affirmation of Jehovah.
Ary raha manontany anao ity firenena ity, na ny mpaminany, na ny mpisorona, ka manao hoe: Inona no entan’ i Jehovah? Dia ataovy aminy hoe: Ny amin’ ny entana hariako ianareo, hoy Jehovah.
34 And the prophet, and the priest, and the people, That saith, The burden of Jehovah, I have seen after that man, and after his house.
Ary ny mpaminany sy ny mpisorona mbamin’ ny vahoaka, izay manao hoe: Ny entan’ i Jehovah. Dia hovaliako izany olona izany mbamin’ ny ankohonany.
35 Thus do ye say each unto his neighbour, And each unto his brother: What hath Jehovah answered? And what hath Jehovah spoken?
Samia manontany amin’ ny namany sy ny rahalahiny avy ianareo hoe: Ahoana no navalin’ i Jehovah? Ary ahoana no nolazain’ i Jehovah?
36 And the burden of Jehovah ye do not mention any more, For the burden to each is — His word, And ye have overturned the words of the living God, Jehovah of Hosts, our God.
Fa ny hoe: Ny entan’ i Jehovah dia tsy hotononinareo intsony; Fa ny tenin’ ny olona avy ihany no ho entan’ ny tenany, satria efa navadikareo ny tenin’ Andriamanitra velona, dia Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Andriamanitsika.
37 Thus dost thou say unto the prophet What hath Jehovah answered thee? And what hath Jehovah spoken?
Izao no hanontanianareo amin’ ny mpaminany; Ahoana no navalin’ i Jehovah anao? Ary ahoana no nolazain’ i Jehovah?
38 And if the burden of Jehovah ye say, Therefore thus said Jehovah: Because of your saying this word, The burden of Jehovah, And I do send unto you, saying, Ye do not say, The burden of Jehovah.
Fa raha hoy ianareo: Entan’ i Jehovah, Dia izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Noho ny nilazanareo ny teny hoe: Ny entan’ i Jehovah, nefa efa nanirahako ihany ianareo nataoko hoe: Aza manao hoe: Ny entan’ i Jehovah,
39 Therefore, lo, I — I have taken you utterly away, And I have sent you out, And the city that I gave to you, And to your fathers, from before My face,
Dia, indro, hanadino anareo tokoa Aho sady hanary anareo mbamin’ ny tanàna izay nomeko anareo sy ny razanareo tsy ho eo anatrehako;
40 And I have put on you reproach age-during, And shame age-during that is not forgotten!
Ary hataoko mihatra aminareo ny fahafaham-baraka mandrakizay sy ny fahamenarana mandrakizay izay tsy hohadinoina.
