Jeremia 25
1 Izao no teny tonga tamin’ i Jeremia ny amin’ ny Joda rehetra tamin’ ny taona fahefatra nanjakan’ i Joiakima, zanak’ i Josia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda dia ny taona voalohany nanjakan’ i Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ i Babylona
The word which came to Jeremiah about all the people of Judah in the fourth year of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah king of Judah; this was the first year of Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon.
2 dia izay nolazain’ i Jeremia mpaminany tamin’ ny Joda rehetra sy tamin’ ny mponina rehetra tany Jerosalema hoe:
This word Jeremiah gave out to all the people of Judah and to those living in Jerusalem, saying,
3 Hatramin’ ny taona fahatelo ambin’ ny folo nanjakan’ i Josia, zanak’ i Amona, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, ka mandraka androany, dia mandritra ny telo amby roa-polo taona izao, no nahatongavan’ ny tenin’ i Jehovah tamiko, ary nolazaiko taminareo, eny, nifoha maraina koa aho ka nilaza; nefa tsy nihaino ianareo.
From the thirteenth year of Josiah, the son of Amon, king of Judah, even till this day, for twenty-three years, the word of the Lord has been coming to me, and I have given it to you, getting up early and talking to you; but you have not given ear.
4 Ary Jehovah naniraka ny mpaminany mpanompony rehetra ho any aminareo, eny, nifoha maraina koa Izy ka naniraka nefa tsy nihaino ianareo, na nanongilan-tsofina hihaino hoe:
And the Lord has sent to you all his servants the prophets, getting up early and sending them; but you have not given attention and your ear has not been open to give hearing;
5 Samia miala amin’ ny lalan-dratsinareo avy ianareo sy amin’ ny ratsy fanaonareo, ka dia honina any amin’ ny tany izay nomen’ i Jehovah anareo sy ny razanareo hatrizay ka ho mandrakizay.
Saying, Come back now, everyone from his evil way and from the evil of your doings, and keep your place in the land which the Lord has given to you and to your fathers, from times long past even for ever:
6 Ary aza manaraka andriamani-kafa hanompo azy sy hiankohoka eo anatrehany, ary aza mampahatezitra Ahy amin’ ny asan’ ny tananareo, fandrao hahatonga loza aminareo Aho.
Do not go after other gods to be their servants and to give them worship, and do not make me angry with the work of your hands, causing evil to yourselves.
7 Nefa tsy nihaino Ahy ianareo, hoy Jehovah, mba hampahatezeranareo Ahy tamin’ ny asan’ ny tananareo hahitanareo loza.
But you have not given ear to me, says the Lord; so that you have made me angry with the work of your hands, causing evil to yourselves.
8 Koa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro: Noho ny tsy nihainoanareo ny teniko,
So this is what the Lord of armies has said: Because you have not given ear to my words,
9 dia, indro, hampanalaiko ny firenena rehetra any avaratra sy Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ i Babylona, mpanompoko, hoy Jehovah, ary ho entiko hamely ity lany ity sy ny mponina eto mbamin’ ireto firenena manodidina rehetra ireto izy, ary haringako tokoa ireo ka hataoko ho figagana sy zavatra mampisitrisitra sady ho rava mandrakizay.
See, I will send and take all the families of the north, says the Lord, and Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, my servant, and make them come against this land, and against its people, and against all these nations on every side; and I will give them up to complete destruction, and make them a cause of fear and surprise and a waste place for ever.
10 Ary hatsahatro eo aminy ny feo mifaly sy ny feo miravoravo, dia ny feon’ ny mpampakatra sy ny feon’ ny ampakarina, ny feon’ ny vato fikosoham-bary ary ny fahazavan’ ny jiro.
And more than this, I will take from them the sound of laughing voices, the voice of joy, the voice of the newly-married man, and the voice of the bride, the sound of the stones crushing the grain, and the shining of lights.
11 Ary ity tany rehetra ity dia ho foana sy lao, ary ireto firenena rehetra ireto hanompo ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona fito-polo taona.
All this land will be a waste and a cause of wonder; and these nations will be the servants of the king of Babylon for seventy years.
12 Ary rehefa tapitra ny fito-polo taona, hoy Jehovah, dia hovaliako kosa ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona sy izany firenena izany noho ny helony, ary ny tanin’ ny Kaldeana koa dia hataoko rava mandrakizay.
And it will come about, after seventy years are ended, that I will send punishment on the king of Babylon, and on that nation, says the Lord, for their evil-doing, and on the land of the Chaldaeans; and I will make it a waste for ever.
13 Ary hotoviko amin’ izany tany izany ny teniko rehetra, izay efa nambarako hamelezana azy, dia izay rehetra voasoratra ato amin’ ity boky ity, izay novinanin’ i Jeremia hamely ny firenena rehetra.
And I will make that land undergo everything I have said against it, even everything recorded in this book, which Jeremiah the prophet has said against all the nations.
14 Fa ireo kosa indray dia hampanompoin’ ny firenena maro sy ny mpanjaka lehibe, ary hovaliako araka ny ataony sy araka ny asan’ ny tànany avy izy.
For a number of nations and great kings will make servants of them, even of them: and I will give them the reward of their acts, even the reward of the work of their hands.
15 Fa izao no nolazain’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, tamiko: Raiso etỳ an-tanako ity kapoaky ny divay fahatezerana mirehitra ity, ka ampisotroy ny firenena rehetra izay anirahako anao.
For this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, has said to me: Take the cup of the wine of this wrath from my hand, and make all the nations to whom I send you take of it.
16 Ary hisotro izy ka hirepirepy sy ho very saina noho ny sabatra izay hampameleziko azy.
And after drinking it, they will go rolling from side to side, and be off their heads, because of the sword which I will send among them.
17 Dia noraisiko ny kapoaka teny an-tànan’ i Jehovah, ka nampisotroako ny firenena rehetra izay nanirahan’ i Jehovah ahy,
Then I took the cup from the Lord's hand, and gave a drink from it to all the nations to whom the Lord sent me;
18 dia Jerosalema sy ny tanànan’ ny Joda sy ny mpanjakany ary ny mpanapaka, mba hanao azy ho tany lao sy ho figagana sy zavatra mampisitrisitra ary fanozonana tahaka ny amin’ izao anio izao;
Jerusalem and the towns of Judah and their kings and their princes, to make them a waste place, a cause of fear and surprise and a curse, as it is this day;
19 ary Farao, mpanjakan’ i Egypta, sy ny mpanompony sy ny mpanapaka mbamin’ ny vahoakany rehetra,
Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and his servants and his princes and all his people;
20 ary ny olona samy hafa firenena rehetra sy ny mpanjaka rehetra amin’ ny tany Oza sy ny mpanjaka rehetra amin’ ny tanin’ ny Filistina sy Askelona sy Gaza sy Ekrona ary ny sisa any Asdoda;
And all the mixed people and all the kings of the land of Uz, and all the kings of the land of the Philistines, and Ashkelon and Gaza and Ekron and the rest of Ashdod;
21 ary Edoma sy Moaba sy ny taranak’ i Amona,
Edom and Moab and the children of Ammon,
22 ary ny mpanjaka rehetra any Tyro sy ny mpanjaka rehetra any Sidona ary ny mpanjakan’ ny nosy any an-dafin’ ny ranomasina;
And all the kings of Tyre, and all the kings of Zidon, and the kings of the lands across the sea;
23 ary Dedana sy Tema sy Boza ary izay rehetra voahety sisim-bolo,
Dedan and Tema and Buz, and all who have the ends of their hair cut;
24 ary ny mpanjaka rehetra any Arabia sy ny mpanjaka rehetra amin’ ny firenena maro samy hafa izay monina any an-efitra;
And all the kings of Arabia, and all the kings of the mixed people living in the waste land;
25 ary ny mpanjaka rehetra any Zimry sy ny mpanjaka rehetra any Elama ary ny mpanjaka rehetra any Media,
And all the kings of Zimri, and all the kings of Elam, and all the kings of the Medes;
26 ary ny mpanjaka rehetra any avaratra, na ny lavitra na ny akaiky, na iza na iza, ary ny fanjakana rehetra amin’ izao tontolo izao, izay etỳ ambonin’ ny tany; ary ny mpanjakan’ i Sesaka koa dia hisotro manaraka ireo.
And all the kings of the north, far and near, one with another; and all the kingdoms of the world on the face of the earth.
27 Koa lazao aminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro. Andriamanitry ny Isiraely: Misotroa ianareo, ka mimamoa, sy mandoava, ary mianjerà, ka aza miarina intsony noho ny sabatra izay hampameleziko anareo.
And you are to say to them, This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: Take of this cup and be overcome, and let it come out again from your lips, and from your fall you will never be lifted up again, because of the sword which I will send among you.
28 Ary raha tsy mety mandray ny kapoaka eny an-tananao hosotroiny izy, dia ataovy aminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro: Tsy maintsy misotro ianareo.
And it will be, if they will not take of the cup in your hand, then you are to say to them, This is what the Lord of armies has said: You will certainly take of it.
29 Fa, indro, ao amin’ ny tanàna izay efa niantsoana ny anarako aza no nanombohako ny fahatongavana loza, ka ho afaka va ianareo? Tsy ho afaka mihitsy ianareo, fa hiantso sabatra Aho hamelezana ny mponina rehetra amin’ ny tany, hoy Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro.
For see, I am starting to send evil on the town which is named by my name, and are you to be without any punishment? You will not be without punishment: for I will send a sword on all people living on the earth, says the Lord of armies.
30 Koa maminania aminy ianao araka izao teny rehetra izao, ka ataovy hoe: Jehovah hierona any ambony ary hanandratra ny feony any amin’ ny fitoerany masìna, eny, hierona mafy amin’ ny sahany fiandrasan-ondry Izy ka hanakora toy ny mpanosihosy voaloboka, hamelezana ny mponina rehetra amin’ ny tany.
So, as a prophet, give out these words among them, and say to them, The voice of the Lord will be sounding like a lion from on high; he will send out his voice from his holy place, like the loud voice of a lion, against his flock; he will give a cry, like those who are crushing the grapes, against all the people of the earth.
31 Mihatra amin’ ny faran’ ny tany ny fihorakorahana; Fa Jehovah manana ady amin’ ny firenena; Mifandahatra amin’ ny nofo rehetra Izy, ka ny ratsy fanahy dia atolony ho an’ ny sabatra, hoy Jehovah.
A noise will come, even to the end of the earth; for the Lord has a cause against the nations, he will give his decision against all flesh; as for the evil-doers, he will give them to the sword, says the Lord.
32 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro: Indro, hisy loza hivoaka hitety ny firenena samy hafa, ary hisy tafio-drivotra mahery hiposaka any amin’ ny faran’ ny tany;
This is what the Lord of armies has said: See, evil is going out from nation to nation, and a great storm will come up from the inmost parts of the earth.
33 Ary amin’ izany andro izany Ny voavonon’ i Jehovah, dia hiampatrampatra hatramin’ ny faran’ ny tany anankiray ka hatramin’ ny farany koa; Tsy hisaonana, na hangonina, na halevina ireny, fa ho zezika eny ambonin’ ny tany.
And at that day, the bodies of those whom the Lord has put to death will be seen from one end of the earth even to the other end of the earth: there will be no weeping for them, their bodies will not be taken up or put to rest in the earth; they will be like waste on the face of the land.
34 Midradradradrà, ianareo mpiandry ondry, ary mitaraina; Eny, mihosinkosena, ianareo zokiny amin’ ny ondry! Fa tonga ny andro hamonoana anareo, ary hampieleziko ianareo ka hianjera toy ny fanaka tsara.
Give cries of grief, you keepers of sheep; give cries for help, rolling yourselves in the dust, you chiefs of the flock: for the days of your destruction have fully come, and I will send you in all directions, and your fall will be like that of the males of the flock.
35 Ny mpiandry ondry tsy hanam-pandosirana, ary ny zokiny amin’ ny ondry tsy hanam-pahafahana.
There will be no way of flight for the keepers of sheep, no road for the chiefs of the flock to get away safely.
36 Injany! misy feo fitarainan’ ny mpiandry ondry sy fidradradradran’ ny zokiny aminy! Satria efa nosimban’ i Jehovah ny saha fiandrasana azy,
A sound of the cry of the keepers of sheep, and the bitter crying of the chiefs of the flock! for the Lord has made waste their green fields.
37 Ary efa tonga lao ny kijana niadanana noho ny firehetan’ ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah.
And there is no sound in the fields of peace, because of the burning wrath of the Lord.
38 Nandao ny fiereny toy ny liona tanora izy; Fa efa lao ny taniny noho ny fahasiahan’ ny mpampahory sy noho ny firehetan’ ny fahatezerany.
The lion has come out of his secret place, for the land has become a waste because of the cruel sword, and because of the heat of his wrath.
