Jeremia 27

1 Tamin’ ny niandohan’ ny nanjakan’ i Joiakima, zanak’ i Josia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, no nahatongavan’ izao teny izao tamin’ i Jeremia avy tamin’ i Jehovah hoe:

In the beginning of the reign of Joakim the son of Josias king of Juda, this word came to Jeremias from the Lord, saying:

2 Izao no nolazain’ i Jehovah tamiko: Manaova famatorana sy zioga ianao, ka ataovy eo am-bozonao,

Thus saith the Lord to me: Make thee bands, and chains: and thou shalt put them on thy neck.

3 ary ampanatero any amin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Edoma sy any amin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Moaba sy any amin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny taranak’ i Amona sy any amin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Tyro ary any amin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Sidona izany ho entin’ ny iraka izay mankaty Jerosalema ho atỳ amin’ i Zedekia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda;

And thou shalt send them to the of Edom, and to the king of Moab, and to the king of the children of Ammon, and to the king of Tyre, and to the king of Sidon: by the hand of the messengers that are come to Jerusalem to Sedecias the king of Juda.

4 ary asaovy lazainy amin’ ny tompony avy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely: Izao no holazainareo amin’ ny tomponareo:

And thou shalt command them to speak to their masters: Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Thus shall you say to your masters:

5 Izaho no nanao ny tany sy ny olona ary ny biby izay eo aminy tamin’ ny heriko lehibe sy tamin’ ny sandriko nahinjitra; ary efa nomeko ho an’ izay sitraky ny foko ny tany.

I made the earth, and the men, and the beasts that are upon the face of the earth, by my great power, and by my stretched out arm: and I have given it to whom it seemed good in my eyes.

6 Ary ankehitriny Izaho dia efa nanolotra ireto tany rehetra ireto ho eo an-tànan’ i Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ i Babylona, mpanompoko; eny, na dia ny bibi-dia aza dia efa nomeko hanompo azy koa.

And now I have given all these lands into the hand of Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon my servant: moreover also the beasts of the field I have given him to serve him.

7 Ary ny firenena rehetra dia hanompo azy sy ny zanany ary ny zafiny ambara-pahatongan’ ny fotoana hamaliana ny tanin’ izy io kosa, ka hampanompoin’ ny firenena maro sy ny mpanjaka lehibe izy.

And all nations shall serve him, and his son, and his son’s son: till the time come for his land and himself: and many nations and great kings shall serve him.

8 Ary izay firenena na fanjakana tsy mety manompo an’ i Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ i Babylona, ary tsy mety mampiditra ny vozony eo amin’ ny ziogan’ ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona, dia hovaliako amin’ ny sabatra sy ny mosary ary ny areti-mandringana izany firenena izany, hoy Jehovah, ambara-pandringako azy amin’ ny tànany.

But the nation and kingdom that will not serve Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon, and whosoever will not bend his neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon: I will visit upon that nation with the sword, and with famine, and with pestilence, saith the Lord: till I consume them by his hand.

9 Ary aza mihaino ny mpaminaninareo ianareo, na ny mpanao fankatovanareo, na ny nofinareo, na ny mpanandronareo, na ny mpanana odinareo, izay manao aminareo hoe: Tsy hanompo ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona ianareo.

Therefore hearken not to your prophets, and diviners, and dreamers, and soothsayers, and sorcerers, that say to you: You shall not serve the king Babylon.

10 Fa lainga no vinanin’ ireo aminareo, mba hamindrana anareo ho lavitra ny taninareo, dia horoahiko ianareo ka ho ringana.

For they prophesy lies to you: to remove you far from your country, and east you out, and to make you perish.

11 Fa izay firenena mampiditra ny vozony eo amin’ ny ziogan’ ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona kosa ka manompo azy dia havelako hitoetra amin’ ny taniny ihany, hoy Jehovah, ka hiasa azy sady honina ao izy.

But the nation that shall bend down their neck under the yoke of the king Babylon, and shall serve him: Will let them remain in their own land, saith the Lord: and they shall till it, and dwell in it.

12 Ary Zedekia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, koa dia efa nilazako araka izany teny rehetra izany hoe: Ampidiro eo amin’ ny ziogan’ ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona ny vozonareo, ka manompoa azy sy ny vahoakany, dia ho velona ianareo.

And I spoke to Sedecias the king of Juda according to all these words, saying: Bend down your necks under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him, and his people, and you shall live.

13 Nahoana no ho fatin’ ny sabatra sy ny mosary ary ny areti-mandringana ianareo, dia ianao mbamin’ ny vahoakanao, araka ny nolazain’ i Jehovah ny amin’ ny firenena izay tsy mety manompo ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona?

Why will you die, thou and thy people by the sword, and by famine, and by the pestilence, as the Lord hath spoken against the nation that will not serve the king of Babylon?

14 Koa aza mihaino ny tenin’ ny mpaminany izay manao aminareo hoe: Tsy hanompo ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona ianareo; fa lainga no vinanin’ ireo aminareo.

Hearken not to the words of the prophets that say to you: You shall not serve the king of Babylon: for they tell you a lie.

15 Fa tsy naniraka azy Aho, hoy Jehovah, nefa manandoka ho mpaminany amin’ ny anarako ihany izy, mba handroahako anareo, ka ho lany ringana ianareo, dia ianareo sy ny mpaminany izay maminany aminareo.

For I have not sent them, saith the Lord: and they prophesy in my name falsely: to drive you out, and that you may perish, both you, and the prophets that prophesy to you.

16 Ary ny mpisorona sy ity firenena rehetra ity dia efa nilazako hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Aza mihaino ny tenin’ ny mpaminaninareo, izay maminany aminareo hoe: Indro, ny fanaky ny tranon’ i Jehovah hampodina faingana avy any Babylona; fa lainga no vinaniny aminareo.

I spoke also to the priests, and to this people, saying: Thus saith the Lord: Hearken not to the words of your prophets, that prophesy to you, saying: Behold the vessels of the Lord shall now in a short time be brought again from Babylon: for they prophesy a lie unto you.

17 Aza mihaino azy, fa manompoa ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona, dia ho velona ianareo; fa nahoana no ho rava ity tanàna ity?

Therefore hearken not to them, but serve the king of Babylon, that you may live. Why should this city be given up to desolation?

18 Fa raha mpaminany tokoa ireo, ary raha ao aminy tokoa ny tenin’ i Jehovah, dia aoka hifona amin’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, izy, mba tsy ho lasa ho any Babylona koa ny fanaka sisa ao an-tranon’ i Jehovah sy ao an-tranon’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Joda sy ato Jerosalema

But if they be prophets, and the word of the Lord be in them: let them interpose themselves before the Lord of hosts, that the vessels which were left in the house of the Lord, and in the house of the king of Juda, and in Jerusalem, may not go to Babylon.

19 Fa izao ny lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, ny amin’ ny andry sy ny tavin-drano lehibe sy ny fitoeran-tavin-drano ary ny amin’ ny fanaka hafa izay mbola sisa amin’ ity tanàna ity,

For thus saith the Lord of hosts to the pillars, and to the sea, and to the bases, and to the rest of the vessels that remain in this city:

20 dia izay tsy nalain’ i Nebokadnezara mpanjakan’ i Babylona, fony izy nitondra an’ i Jekonia, zanak’ i Joiakima, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, ho babo avy tany Jerosalema ho any Babylona, mbamin’ ny manan-kaja rehetra amin’ ny Joda sy Jerosalema,

Which Nabuchodonosor the king of Babylon did not take, when he carried away Jechonias the son of Joakim the king of Juda, from Jerusalem to Babylon, and all the great men of Juda and Jerusalem.

21 eny, izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, ny amin’ ny fanaka izay sisa ao an-tranon’ i Jehovah sy ao an-tranon’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Joda sy ato Jerosalema:

For thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel, to the vessels that are left in the house of the Lord, and in the house of the king of Juda and Jerusalem:

22 Ho any Babylona no hitondrana ireo, sady hitoetra any izy ambara-pahatongan’ ny andro hamangiako azy, hoy Jehovah, dia vao ho entiko miakatra izy ka hampodiko amin’ ity tanàna ity.

They shall be carried to Babylon, and there they shall be until the day of their visitation, saith the Lord: and I will cause them to be brought, and to be restored in this place.
