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 that came to Jeremias from the Lord, (when Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon, and all his army, and all the kingdoms of the earth, that were under the power of his hand, and all the people fought 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 the Lord, the God of Israel: Go, and speak to Sedecias king of Juda, and say to him: Thus saith the Lord: Behold I will deliver this city into the hands 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 thou shalt surely be taken, and thou shalt be delivered into his hand: and thy eyes shall see the eyes of the king of Babylon, and his mouth shall speak with thy 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 the Lord, O Sedecias king of Juda: Thus saith the Lord to 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.

But thou shalt die in peace, and according to the burnings of thy fathers, the former kings that were before thee, so shall they burn thee: and they shall mourn for thee, saying: Alas, Lord: for I have spoken the word, saith the Lord.

6 Dia nolazain’ i Jeremia mpaminany tamin’ i Zedekia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, tany Jerosalema izany teny rehetra izany.

And Jeremias the prophet spoke all these words to Sedecias the king of Juda 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.

And the army of the king of Babylon fought against Jerusalem, and against all the cities of Juda that were left, against Lachis, and against Azecha: for these remained of the cities of Juda, fenced 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 to Jeremias from the Lord, after that king Sedecias had made a covenant with all the people in Jerusalem making a proclamation:

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 manservant, and every man his maidservant, being a Hebrew man or a Hebrew woman, go free: and that they should not lord it over them, to wit, over the Jews their brethren.

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 who entered into the covenant, heard that every man should let his manservant, and every man his maidservant go free, and should no more have dominion over them: and they obeyed, and let them go free.

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 brought back again their servants and their handmaids, whom they had let go free, and brought them into subjection as menservants and maidservants.

12 Ary tonga tamin’ i Jeremia ny tenin’ i Jehovah hoe:

And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias from the Lord, 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 the Lord the God of Israel: I made a covenant with your fathers in the day that I brought them 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, let ye go every man his brother being a Hebrew, who hath been sold to thee, so he shall serve thee six years: and thou shalt let him go free from thee: and your fathers did not hearken to me, nor did they incline 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 you turned today, and did that which was right in my eyes, in proclaiming liberty every one to his brother: and you made a covenant in my sight, in the house upon which my name is invocated.

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.

And you are fallen back, and have defiled my name: and you have brought back again every man his manservant, and every man his maidservant, whom you had let go free, and set at liberty: and you have brought them into subjection to be your servants and 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 the Lord: You have not hearkened to me, in proclaiming liberty every man to his brother and every man to his friend: behold I proclaim a liberty for you, saith the Lord, to the sword, to the pestilence, and to the famine: and I will cause you to be removed to 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, and have not performed the words of the covenant which they agreed to in my presence, when they cut the calf in two 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 Juda, 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.

And I will give them into the hands of their enemies, and into the hands of them that seek their life: and their dead bodies shall be for meat to the fowls of the air, 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 Sedecias the king of Juda, and his princes, I will give into the hands of their enemies, and into the hands of them that seek their lives, and into the hands of the armies of the king of Babylon, which are gone 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 the Lord, and I will bring them again to this city, and they shall fight against it, and take it, and burn it with fire: and I will make the cities of Juda a desolation, without an inhabitant.
