< Jeremia 26 >

1 Tamin’ ny niandohan’ ny nanjakan’ i Joiakima, zanak’ i Josia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, no nahatongavan’ izao teny izao avy tamin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:
In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, this word came from Yahweh:
2 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Mitsangàna eo an-kianjan’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah, ka lazao amin’ ny tanànan’ ny Joda rehetra, izay avy hiankohoka ao an-tranon’ i Jehovah, ny teny rehetra izay efa nasaiko hambaranao aminy, ary aza amelana na dia teny iray akory aza.
“Yahweh says: ‘Stand in the court of Yahweh’s house, and speak to all the cities of Judah which come to worship in Yahweh’s house, all the words that I command you to speak to them. Don’t omit a word.
3 Fa angamba hihaino ihany izy, ka samy hiala amin’ ny lalany ratsy, dia hanenenako ny loza izay kasaiko hamelezana azy noho ny faharatsian’ ny ataony.
It may be they will listen, and every man turn from his evil way, that I may relent from the evil which I intend to do to them because of the evil of their doings.’”
4 Ary lazao aminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Raha tsy mihaino Ahy ianareo ka tsy mandeha araka ny lalàko izay napetrako teo anoloanareo,
You shall tell them, “Yahweh says: ‘If you will not listen to me, to walk in my law which I have set before you,
5 ary tsy mihaino ny tenin’ ny mpaminany mpanompoko, izay irahiko aminareo, eny, nifoha maraina koa Aho ka naniraka, nefa tsy mba nihaino ianareo
to listen to the words of my servants the prophets whom I send to you, even rising up early and sending them—but you have not listened—
6 dia hataoko tahaka an’ i Silo ity trano ity, ary hataoko fanozonana ho an’ ny firenena rehetra ambonin’ ny tany ity tanàna ity.
then I will make this house like Shiloh, and will make this city a curse to all the nations of the earth.’”
7 Ary ny mpisorona sy ny mpaminany mbamin’ ny vahoaka rehetra dia nandre an’ i Jeremia nanambara ireo teny rehetra ireo tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah.
The priests and the prophets and all the people heard Jeremiah speaking these words in Yahweh’s house.
8 Koa nony efa tapitra voalazan’ i Jeremia izay rehetra nasain’ i Jehovah nolazaina tamin’ ny vahoaka rehetra, dia nosamborin’ ny mpisorona sy ny mpaminany mbamin’ ny vahoaka rehetra izy ka nataony hoe: Ho faty tokoa ianao.
When Jeremiah had finished speaking all that Yahweh had commanded him to speak to all the people, the priests and the prophets and all the people seized him, saying, “You shall surely die!
9 Nahoana ianao no naminany tamin’ ny anaran’ i Jehovah hoe: Ho tahaka an’ i Silo ity tanàna ity, ary ho lao ity tanàna ity, ka tsy hisy mponina? Ary ny vahoaka rehetra dia nitangorona tamin’ i Jeremia tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah.
Why have you prophesied in Yahweh’s name, saying, ‘This house will be like Shiloh, and this city will be desolate, without inhabitant’?” All the people were crowded around Jeremiah in Yahweh’s house.
10 Fa nony ren’ ny mpanapaka ny Joda izany zavatra izany, dia niakatra avy tany amin’ ny tranon’ ny mpanjaka nankany amin’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah izy ka nipetraka teo anoloan’ ny vavahady vaovaon’ i Jehovah.
When the princes of Judah heard these things, they came up from the king’s house to Yahweh’s house; and they sat in the entry of the new gate of Yahweh’s house.
11 Ary ny mpisorona sy ny mpaminany nilaza tamin’ ny mpanapaka sy ny vahoaka rehetra hoe: Misy heloka tokony hahafaty ity lehilahy ity; fa efa naminany loza ho amin’ ity tanàna ity izy araka izay efa ren’ ny sofinareo.
Then the priests and the prophets spoke to the princes and to all the people, saying, “This man is worthy of death, for he has prophesied against this city, as you have heard with your ears.”
12 Dia nilaza tamin’ ny mpanapaka rehetra sy ny vahoaka rehetra Jeremia hoe: Jehovah no naniraka ahy haminany izay rehetra efa renareo ny amin’ ity trano sy ity tanàna ity.
Then Jeremiah spoke to all the princes and to all the people, saying, “Yahweh sent me to prophesy against this house and against this city all the words that you have heard.
13 Koa ankehitriny ataovy tsara ny lalanareo sy ny ataonareo, ary mihainoa ny feon’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrareo; fa hanenenan’ i Jehovah ny loza izay efa nolazainy hamelezana anareo.
Now therefore amend your ways and your doings, and obey Yahweh your God’s voice; then Yahweh will relent from the evil that he has pronounced against you.
14 Fa ny amiko, dia, indro, efa eto an-tananareo aho; koa ataovy amiko izay ataonareo ho mety sy marina.
But as for me, behold, I am in your hand. Do with me what is good and right in your eyes.
15 Kanefa mihevera tsara, fa raha mamono ahy anie ianareo, dia hahatonga rà marina aminareo sy amin’ ity tanàna ity ary amin’ ny mponina eto, satria Jehovah tokoa no naniraka ahy taminareo hilaza ireo teny rehetra ireo eto anatrehanareo.
Only know for certain that if you put me to death, you will bring innocent blood on yourselves, on this city, and on its inhabitants; for in truth Yahweh has sent me to you to speak all these words in your ears.”
16 Dia hoy ny mpanapaka sy ny vahoaka rehetra tamin’ ny mpisorona sy ny mpaminany: Tsy misy heloka tokony hahafaty ity lehilahy ity, satria tamin’ ny anaran’ i Jehovah Andriamanitsika no nitenenany tamintsika.
Then the princes and all the people said to the priests and to the prophets: “This man is not worthy of death; for he has spoken to us in the name of Yahweh our God.”
17 Dia nisy nitsangana ny loholona ka nanao tamin’ ny vahoaka rehetra vory teo hoe:
Then certain of the elders of the land rose up, and spoke to all the assembly of the people, saying,
18 Mika Morastita dia naminany tamin’ ny andron’ i Hezekia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, ka nanao tamin’ ny Joda rehetra hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro: “Ziona dia hasaina toy ny tanimboly, ary Jerosalema ho tonga korontam-bato, ary ny tendrombohitra misy ny trano dia ho tonga toy ny havoana mifono ala.”.
“Micah the Morashtite prophesied in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah; and he spoke to all the people of Judah, saying, ‘Yahweh of Armies says: “‘Zion will be plowed as a field, and Jerusalem will become heaps, and the mountain of the house as the high places of a forest.’
19 Moa namono azy va Hezekia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, sy ny Joda rehetra? Tsy natahotra an’ i Jehovah va izy ka nifona tamin’ i Jehovah, ka dia nanenenan’ i Jehovah ny loza izay efa nolazainy hamelezany azy? Fa isika kosa izao dia mila hampidi-doza lehibe amin’ ny tenantsika.
Did Hezekiah king of Judah and all Judah put him to death? Didn’t he fear Yahweh, and entreat the favor of Yahweh, and Yahweh relented of the disaster which he had pronounced against them? We would commit great evil against our own souls that way!”
20 Ary nisy lehilahy anankiray koa izay naminany tamin’ ny anaran’ i Jehovah, dia Oria, zanak’ i Semaia, avy any Kiriata-jearima, izay naminany loza ho amin’ ity tanàna sy ity tany ity araka izany teny rehetra nataon’ i Jeremia izany koa.
There was also a man who prophesied in Yahweh’s name, Uriah the son of Shemaiah of Kiriath Jearim; and he prophesied against this city and against this land according to all the words of Jeremiah.
21 Ary nony ren’ i Joiakima mpanjaka sy ny lehilahy maheriny rehetra ny teniny, dia nitady hahafaty azy ny mpanjaka; ary nony nandre izany Oria, dia natahotra izy ka nandositra, ary tonga tany Egypta;
When Jehoiakim the king, with all his mighty men and all the princes heard his words, the king sought to put him to death; but when Uriah heard it, he was afraid, and fled, and went into Egypt.
22 ary Joiakima mpanjaka naniraka olona nankany Egypta, dia Elnatana, zanak’ i Akbora, mbamin’ ny olona sasany nanaraka ny hankany Egypta.
Then Jehoiakim the king sent Elnathan the son of Achbor and certain men with him into Egypt.
23 Ary Oria dia nalain’ ireo niala avy tany Egypta ka nentiny teo amin’ i Joiakima mpanjaka; ary izy namono azy tamin’ ny sabatra, dia nanary ny fatiny teny amin’ ny fasam-bahoaka.
They fetched Uriah out of Egypt and brought him to Jehoiakim the king, who killed him with the sword and cast his dead body into the graves of the common people.
24 Nefa ny tànan’ i Ahikama, zanak’ i Safana, dia nomba an’ i Jeremia mba tsy hanolorana azy ho eo an-tànan’ ny vahoaka hovonoiny.
But the hand of Ahikam the son of Shaphan was with Jeremiah, so that they didn’t give him into the hand of the people to put him to death.
