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 to Jeremiah from the LORD, 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 of it, 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 says the LORD, the God of Israel, 'Go, and speak to Zedekiah king of Judah, and tell him, "Thus says the LORD, 'Look, 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 you shall not escape out of his hand, but shall surely be taken, and delivered into his hand; and your eyes shall see the eyes of the king of Babylon, and he shall speak with you mouth to mouth, and you shall 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 Zedekiah king of Judah: thus says the LORD concerning you, 'You shall 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.
you shall die in peace; and with the burnings of your fathers, the former kings who were before you, so shall they make a burning for you; and they shall lament you, saying, "Ah Lord." for I have spoken the word,' says the LORD."'"
6 Dia nolazain’ i Jeremia mpaminany tamin’ i Zedekia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, tany Jerosalema izany teny rehetra izany.
Then Jeremiah the prophet spoke all these words to 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 to Jeremiah from the LORD, after that the king Zedekiah had made a covenant with all the people who were at Jerusalem, to proclaim liberty to 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 male servant, and every man his female servant, who is a Hebrew man or a Hebrew woman, go free; that none should keep a fellow Judean in bondage.
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 officials and all the people obeyed, who had entered into the covenant, that everyone should let his male servant, and everyone his female servant, go free, that none should make bondservants 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 the LORD came to Jeremiah 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 says the LORD, 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 you shall let go every man his brother who is a Hebrew, who has been sold to you, and has served you six years, you shall let him go free from you": but your fathers did not listen to 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;
You had now turned, and had done that which is right in my eyes, in proclaiming liberty every man to his neighbor; and you 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 you turned and profaned my name, and caused every man his servant, and every man his handmaid, whom you had let go free at their pleasure, to return; and you brought them into subjection, to be to 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 says the LORD: "You have not listened to me, to proclaim liberty, every man to his brother, and every man to his neighbor: look, I proclaim to you a liberty, says the LORD, to the sword, to the pestilence, and to the famine; and I will make you to be tossed back and forth 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,
I will give the men who have transgressed my covenant, who have not performed the words of the covenant which they made before me, when they cut the calf in two and passed between its parts;
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 officials of Judah, and the officials of Jerusalem, the eunuchs, and the cohanim, and all the people of the land, who 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 those who seek their life; and their dead bodies shall be for food to the birds of the sky, and to the animals 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 officials will I give into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of those who seek their life, and into the hand of the king of Babylon's army, who have 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.
Look, I will command, says the LORD, 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."'"
