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 Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, this word came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, saying,
2 Izao no nolazain’ i Jehovah tamiko: Manaova famatorana sy zioga ianao, ka ataovy eo am-bozonao,
Yahweh says to me: “Make bonds and bars, and put them on your 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;
Then send them to the king of Edom, to the king of Moab, to the king of the children of Ammon, to the king of Tyre, and to the king of Sidon, by the hand of the messengers who come to Jerusalem to Zedekiah king of Judah.
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:
Give them a command to their masters, saying, ‘Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel says, “You shall tell 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 have made the earth, the men, and the animals that are on the surface of the earth by my great power and by my outstretched arm. I give it to whom it seems right to me.
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.
Now I have given all these lands into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant. I have also given the animals of the field to 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.
All the nations will serve him, his son, and his son’s son, until the time of his own land comes. Then many nations and great kings will make him their bondservant.
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.
“‘“‘It will happen that I will punish the nation and the kingdom which will not serve the same Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and that will not put their neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon,’ says Yahweh, ‘with the sword, with famine, and with pestilence, until I have consumed 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.
But as for you, don’t listen to your prophets, to your diviners, to your dreams, to your soothsayers, or to your sorcerers, who speak to you, saying, “You shall not serve the king of Babylon;”
10 Fa lainga no vinanin’ ireo aminareo, mba hamindrana anareo ho lavitra ny taninareo, dia horoahiko ianareo ka ho ringana.
for they prophesy a lie to you, to remove you far from your land, so that I would drive you out, and you would 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 brings their neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon and serves him, that nation I will let remain in their own land,’ says Yahweh; ‘and they will 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.
I spoke to Zedekiah king of Judah according to all these words, saying, “Bring your necks under the yoke of the king of Babylon, and serve him and his people, and 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, you and your people, by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence, as Yahweh has spoken concerning 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.
Don’t listen to the words of the prophets who speak to you, saying, ‘You shall not serve the king of Babylon;’ for they prophesy a lie to you.
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,” says Yahweh, “but they prophesy falsely in my name; that I may drive you out, and that you may perish, you, and the prophets who 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.
Also I spoke to the priests and to all this people, saying, Yahweh says, “Don’t listen to the words of your prophets who prophesy to you, saying, ‘Behold, the vessels of Yahweh’s house will now shortly be brought again from Babylon;’ for they prophesy a lie to you.
17 Aza mihaino azy, fa manompoa ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona, dia ho velona ianareo; fa nahoana no ho rava ity tanàna ity?
Don’t listen to them. Serve the king of Babylon, and live. Why should this city become a 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 are prophets, and if Yahweh’s word is with them, let them now make intercession to Yahweh of Armies, that the vessels which are left in Yahweh’s house, in the house of the king of Judah, and at Jerusalem, don’t 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 Yahweh of Armies says concerning the pillars, concerning the sea, concerning the bases, and concerning the rest of the vessels that are left 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 Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon didn’t take when he carried away captive Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, from Jerusalem to Babylon, and all the nobles of Judah 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:
yes, Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, says concerning the vessels that are left in Yahweh’s house, and in the house of the king of Judah, and at 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 will be carried to Babylon, and there they will be, until the day that I visit them,’ says Yahweh; ‘then I will bring them up, and restore them to this place.’”
