Jeremia 28
1 Ary tamin’ izany taona izany ihany, dia tamin’ ny niandohan’ ny nanjakan’ i Zedekia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, tamin’ ny volana fahadimy tamin’ ny taona fahefatra, no nitenenan’ i Hanania, zanak’ i Azora, mpaminany avy tany Gibeona, tamiko tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah, teo anatrehan’ ny mpisorona sy ny vahoaka rehetra, nanao hoe:
This is what happened in the beginning of the reign of King Zedekiah of Judah, in the fifth month of that same year, the fourth year. The prophet Hananiah, son of Azzur, who was from Gibeon, told me in the Lord's Temple in front of the priests and all the people:
2 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely: Efa notapahiko ny ziogan’ ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona,
“This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon.
3 ka ao anatin’ ny roa taona no hampodiako ho amin’ ity tanàna ity ny fanaka rehetra tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah izay nalain’ i Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ i Babylona, avy tamin’ ity tanàna ity ka nentiny ho any Babylona:
Before two years have passed I'm going to bring back to Jerusalem all the Temple objects that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon removed and took to Babylon.
4 ary Jekonia, zanak’ i Joiakima, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, mbamin’ ny Joda voababo rehetra, izay lasa tany Babylona, dia hampodiko ho amin’ ity tanàna ity, hoy Jehovah; fa hotapahiko ny ziogan’ ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona.
I will also bring back to Jerusalem Jehoiachin, son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, together with all the exiles from Judah who were taken to Babylon, declares the Lord, because I'm going to break the yoke of the king of Babylon.”
5 Dia hoy Jeremia mpaminany tamin’ i Hanania mpaminany teo anatrehan’ ny mpisorona sy ny vahoaka rehetra izay tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah,
Then the prophet Jeremiah responded to the prophet Hananiah in front of the priests and all the people who were standing in the Lord's Temple.
6 Eny, amena! hoy Jeremia mpaminany; hataon’ i Jehovah anie izany! hotanterahin’ i Jehovah anie ny teninao, izay novinaninao ny amin’ ny hampodiana ny fanaky ny tranon’ i Jehovah mbamin’ ny babo rehetra hiala any Babylona ka hiverina ho amin’ ity tanàna ity indray.
“Amen!” said Jeremiah. “I wish the Lord would do just that! I wish the Lord would fulfill your prophetic words and bring back Temple objects and all the exiles back to Jerusalem from Babylon.
7 Kanefa kosa mba henoinao izao teny izao, izay holazaiko eto anatrehanao sy ny vahoaka rehetra:
But even so, pay attention to this message I'm going to tell you and everyone here.
8 Ny mpaminany izay tany alohako sy tany alohanao hatramin’ ny ela dia naminany ady sy loza ary areti-mandringana ho amin’ ny tany maro sy ny fanjakana lehibe.
The prophets of long ago who came before you and me prophesied war, disaster, and disease against many countries and great kingdoms.
9 Ny amin’ ny mpaminany izay maminany fiadanana raha tanteraka ny teniny, dia ho fantatra ho mpaminany nirahin’ i Jehovah tokoa izy.
When it comes to a prophet who prophesies peace, see if their prophecies come true. Only that will prove they are really sent by the Lord.”
10 Dia nesorin’ i Hanania mpaminany ny zioga tamin’ ny vozon’ i Jeremia mpaminany ka notapahiny.
Then the prophet Hananiah removed the yoke from the prophet Jeremiah's neck and broke it.
11 Ary Hanania niteny teo anatrehan’ ny vahoaka rehetra hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: tahaka izao no hanapahako ny ziogan’ i Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ ny Babylona, ho afaka amin’ ny vozon’ ny firenena rehetra ao anatin’ ny roa taona. Ary dia lasa niala Jeremia mpaminany.
Hananiah announced in front of everyone, “This is what the Lord says: Just like this, before two years have passed I will break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon from the neck of all the nations.” Jeremiah the prophet left.
12 Dia tonga tamin’ i Jeremia ny tenin’ i Jehovah, nony efa notapahin’ i Hanania mpaminany ho afaka tamin’ ny vozon’ i Jeremia mpaminany ny zioga, nanao hoe:
However, right after Hananiah the prophet had broken the yoke from his neck, a message of the Lord came to Jeremiah:
13 Mandehana, ka lazao amin’ i Hanania hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Zioga hazo no notapahinao, fa zioga vy kosa no hataonao solony.
“Go and tell Hananiah that this is what the Lord says: You may have broken a wooden yoke of wood, but you have replaced it with an iron yoke.
14 Fa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely: Zioga vy no nataoko tamin’ ny vozon’ ireto firenena rehetra ireto mba hanompoany an’ i Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ i Babylona, ka dia hanompo azy izy; eny, na dia ny bibi-dia aza dia nomeko azy koa.
This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: I have tied iron yokes on the necks of all these nations to force them to serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and they will serve him. I have even given him control over the wild animals.”
15 Dia hoy Jeremia mpaminany tamin’ i Hanania mpaminany: Mba henoy, ry Hanania: Tsy naniraka anao Jehovah; fa ianao dia mampitoky ity firenena ity amin’ ny lainga.
Then the prophet Jeremiah said to the prophet Hananiah, “Listen to this, Hananiah! The Lord didn't send you, but you have convinced these people to believe in a lie.
16 Koa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Indro, hesoriko tsy ho amin’ ny tany ianao; amin’ ity taona ity ihany no hahafatesanao, satria fiodinana tamin’ i Jehovah no notorinao
So this is what the Lord says: I'm going to get rid of you from the earth. You will die this year because you have promoted rebellion against the Lord.”
17 Ka dia maty tamin’ ny volana fahafito tamin’ iny taona iny ihany Hanania mpaminany.
The prophet Hananiah died in the seventh month of that very year.
