Jeremia 34
1 Izao no teny tonga tamin’ i Jeremia avy tamin’ i Jehovah, fony Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ i Babylona, sy ny miaramilany rehetra ary ny fanjakana rehetra amin’ ny tany izay nanjakany mbamin’ ny firenena rehetra izay namely an’ i Jerosalema sy ny tanànany rehetra, nanao hoe:
The word which came unto Jeremiah from Jehovah, when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and all his army, and all the kingdoms of the earth that were under his dominion, and all the peoples, were fighting against Jerusalem, and against all the cities thereof, saying:
2 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely: Mandehana, lazao amin’ i Zedekia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, ka ambarao aminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Indro, hatolotro eo an-tànan’ ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona ity tanàna ity, ka hodorany amin’ ny afo izy;
Thus saith Jehovah, the God of Israel, Go, and speak to Zedekiah king of Judah, and tell him, Thus saith Jehovah, Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall burn it with fire:
3 ary ianao tsy ho afa-mandositra ny tànany, fa ho voasambotra tokoa ka hatolotra eo an-tànany; ary ny masonao hahita ny mason’ ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona, dia hiteny mifanatrika aminao izy, sady ho tonga any Babylona ianao.
and thou shalt not escape out of his hand, but shalt surely be taken, and delivered into his hand; and thine eyes shall behold the eyes of the king of Babylon, and he shall speak with thee mouth to mouth, and thou shalt go to Babylon.
4 Nefa henoy ny tenin’ i Jehovah, ry Zedekia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda. Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah ny aminao: Tsy ho fatin-tsabatra ianao.
Yet hear the word of Jehovah, O Zedekiah king of Judah: thus saith Jehovah concerning thee, Thou shalt not die by the sword;
5 fa amin’ ny fiadanana no hahafatesanao, ary handoro zavatra ho fisaonana anao ny olona, tahaka ny nandoroany ho fisaonana ny razanao, dia ireny mpanjaka fahiny tany alohanao, ary hitomany anao ny olona hoe: Indrisy ry tompoko; fa Izaho no efa nilaza izany, hoy Jehovah.
thou shalt die in peace; and with the burnings of thy fathers, the former kings that were before thee, so shall they make a burning for thee; and they shall lament thee, [saying], Ah Lord! for I have spoken the word, saith Jehovah.
6 Dia nolazain’ i Jeremia mpaminany tamin’ i Zedekia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, tany Jerosalema izany teny rehetra izany.
Then Jeremiah the prophet spake all these words unto Zedekiah king of Judah in Jerusalem,
7 fony ny miaramilan’ ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona mbola namely an’ i Jerosalema sy ny tanànan’ ny Joda sisa rehetra, dia Lakisy sy Azeka: fa ireo ihany no tanàna mimanda sisa tamin’ ny tanànan’ ny Joda.
when the king of Babylon’s army was fighting against Jerusalem, and against all the cities of Judah that were left, against Lachish and against Azekah; for these [alone] remained of the cities of Judah [as] fortified cities.
8 Izao no teny tonga tamin’ i Jeremia avy tamin’ i Jehovah, rehefa nanao fanekena tamin’ ny vahoaka rehetra izay tany Jerosalema Zedekia mpanjaka hitory fanafahana aminy,
The word that came unto Jeremiah from Jehovah, after that the king Zedekiah had made a covenant with all the people that were at Jerusalem, to proclaim liberty unto them;
9 mba samy handefa ny ankizilahiny sy ny ankizivaviny, dia izay Hebreolahy sy Hebreovavy, ho afaka, mba tsy hisy hampanompo ny Jiosy rahalahiny intsony.
that every man should let his man-servant, and every man his maid-servant, that is a Hebrew or a Hebrewess, go free; that none should make bondmen of them, [to wit], of a Jew his brother.
10 Ka dia nanaiky ny mpanapaka rehetra sy ny vahoaka rehetra izay nanao ny fanekena, samy handefa ny ankizilahiny sy ny ankizivaviny ho afaka mba tsy hampanompoany azy intsony; eny, nanaiky izy, ka samy nandefa azy ho afaka.
And all the princes and all the people obeyed, that had entered into the covenant, that every one should let his man-servant, and every one his maid-servant, go free, that none should make bondmen of them any more; they obeyed, and let them go:
11 Kanjo taorian’ izany dia nanenina izy, ka naveriny indray ireo ankizilahy sy ankizivavy izay efa nalefany ho afaka ireo, dia nandevoziny ho ankizilahiny sy ho ankizivaviny indray.
but afterwards they turned, and caused the servants and the handmaids, whom they had let go free, to return, and brought them into subjection for servants and for handmaids.
12 Ary tonga tamin’ i Jeremia ny tenin’ i Jehovah hoe:
Therefore the word of Jehovah came to Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying,
13 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely: Izaho efa nanao fanekena tamin’ ny razanareo tamin’ ny andro nitondrako azy nivoaka avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta hiala tamin’ ny trano nahandevozana nanao hoe:
Thus saith Jehovah, the God of Israel: I made a covenant with your fathers in the day that I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage, saying,
14 Isam-pito taona samia mandefa ny Hebreo rahalahiny, izay namidy taminao; ka rehefa nanompo anao enin-taona izy, dia alefaso ho afaka; nefa ny razanareo tsy nihaino Ahy ka nanongilana ny sofiny.
At the end of seven years ye shall let go every man his brother that is a Hebrew, that hath been sold unto thee, and hath served thee six years, thou shalt let him go free from thee: but your fathers hearkened not unto me, neither inclined their ear.
15 Ary nibebaka ianareo androany ka nanao izay mahitsy eo imasoko tamin’ ny niantsoanareo fanafahana, samy handefa ny rahalahiny avy; ary nanao fanekena teo anatrehako ianareo, dia tao amin’ ny trano izay efa niantsoana ny anarako;
And ye were now turned, and had done that which is right in mine eyes, in proclaiming liberty every man to his neighbor; and ye had made a covenant before me in the house which is called by my name:
16 kanjo nivadika indray ianareo ka tsy nanamasina ny anarako, fa samy namerina ny ankizilahiny sy ny ankizivaviny, izay efa nalefanareo handeha araka izay tiany, dia nanandevo azy ho ankizilahiny sy ho ankizivaviny indray.
but ye turned and profaned my name, and caused every man his servant, and every man his handmaid, whom ye had let go free at their pleasure, to return; and ye brought them into subjection, to be unto you for servants and for handmaids.
17 Koa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Hianareo tsy nihaino Ahy ka tsy nety nitory fanafahana ho an’ ny rahalahinareo sy ny namanareo avy; dia, indro, miantso fanafahana ho anareo kosa Aho, hoy Jehovah, nefa ho an’ ny sabatra sy ny areti-mandringana ary ny mosary; ary hatolotro ho mpanjenjena any amin’ ny fanjakana rehetra amin’ ny tany ianareo.
Therefore thus saith Jehovah: Ye have not hearkened unto me, to proclaim liberty, every man to his brother, and every man to his neighbor: behold, I proclaim unto you a liberty, saith Jehovah, to the sword, to the pestilence, and to the famine; and I will make you to be tossed to and fro among all the kingdoms of the earth.
18 Ary hatolotro ny olona izay nivadika ny fanekeko ka tsy nahatana ny tenin’ ny fanekena, izay nataony teo anatrehako fony nosasahiny ny ombilahy kely, ka nandeha teo anelanelan’ ny tapany izy,
And I will give the men that have transgressed my covenant, that have not performed the words of the covenant which they made before me, when they cut the calf in twain and passed between the parts thereof;
19 eny, hatolotro ny mpanapaka ny Joda sy ny mpanapaka any Jerosalema sy ny tandapa sy ny mpisorona ary ny vahoaka rehetra, izay nandeha teo anelanelan’ ny tapaky ny ombilahy kely,
the princes of Judah, and the princes of Jerusalem, the eunuchs, and the priests, and all the people of the land, that passed between the parts of the calf;
20 dia hatolotro eo an-tànan’ ny fahavalony sy eo an-tànan’ izay mitady ny ainy, ary ho fihinan’ ny voro-manidina sy ny bibi-dia ny fatiny.
I will even give them into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of them that seek their life; and their dead bodies shall be for food unto the birds of the heavens, and to the beasts of the earth.
21 Ary Zedekia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, sy ny mpanapaka dia hatolotro eo an-tànan’ ny fahavalony sy eo an-tànan’ izay mitady ny ainy ary eo an-tànan’ ny miaramilan’ ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona, izay efa lasa niala taminareo.
And Zedekiah king of Judah and his princes will I give into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of them that seek their life, and into the hand of the king of Babylon’s army, that are gone away from you.
22 Indro, handidy Aho, hoy Jehovah, ary hampivereniko ho amin’ ity tanàna ity ireo; ary hasiany ity ka ho afany, dia hodorany amin’ ny afo; ary ny tanànan’ ny Joda dia hofoanako tsy hisy mponina.
Behold, I will command, saith Jehovah, and cause them to return to this city; and they shall fight against it, and take it, and burn it with fire: and I will make the cities of Judah a desolation, without inhabitant.
