Jeremia 43

1 Ary rehefa tapitra voalazan’ i Jeremia tamin’ ny vahoaka rehetra izany teny rehetra avy tamin’ i Jehovah Andriamaniny izany, izay nanirahan’ i Jehovah Andriamanitra azy holazaina aminy,

It happened that Jeremiah finished proclaiming to all the people all the words of Yahweh their God that Yahweh their God had told him to say.

2 dia niteny Azaria, zanak’ i Hosaia, sy Johanana, zanak’ i Karea, mbamin’ ny olona mpirehareha rehetra ka niteny tamin’ i Jeremia hoe: Mandainga ianao; fa tsy naniraka anao Jehovah Andriamanitsika hilaza hoe: Aza mandeha hivahiny any Egypta;

Azariah son of Hoshaiah, Johanan son of Kareah, and all the arrogant men said to Jeremiah, “You are telling lies. Yahweh our God has not sent you to say, 'Do not go to Egypt to live there.'

3 fa Baroka, zanak’ i Neria, no nanome fo anao hamely anay mba hanolotra anay ho eo an-tànan’ ny Kaldeana hahafaty anay sy hahalasa anay ho babo any Babylona.

For Baruch son of Neriah is inciting you against us to deliver us into the hand of the Chaldeans, for you to cause our death and to make us captives in Babylon.”

4 Ary Johanana, zanak’ i Karea, sy ny mpifehy ny miaramila rehetra ary ny vahoaka rehetra dia tsy nihaino ny feon’ i Jehovah ny amin’ ny honenany ao amin’ ny tanin’ ny Joda.

So Johanan son of Kareah, all the princes of the army, and all the people refused to listen to Yahweh's voice to live in the land of Judah.

5 Fa Johanana, zanak’ i Karea, sy ny mpifehy ny miaramila rehetra dia nitondra ny sisa rehetra tamin’ ny Joda, izay niverina avy tany amin’ ny firenena rehetra nandroahana azy honina ao amin’ ny tanin’ ny Joda,

Johanan son of Kareah and all the army commanders took away all the remnant of Judah who had returned from all the nations where they had been scattered to live in the land of Judah.

6 dia ny lehilahy sy ny zaza amim-behivavy sy ny vehivavy zanak’ andriana ary ny olona rehetra izay navelan’ i Nebozaradana, lehiben’ ny mpiambina, tao amin’ i Gedalia, zanak’ i Ahikama, zanak’ i Safana, sy tao amin’ i Jeremia mpaminany sy Baroka, zanak’ i Neria

They took the men and women, the children and the king's daughters, and every person whom Nebuzaradan, the commander of the king's bodyguards, had let remain with Gedaliah son of Ahikam son of Shaphan. They also took Jeremiah the prophet and Baruch son of Neriah.

7 ka dia nankany amin’ ny tany Egypta izy ireny, fa tsy nihaino ny feon’ i Jehovah, ary dia tonga hatrany Tapanesa.

They went to the land of Egypt, to Tahpanhes, because they did not listen to Yahweh's voice.

8 Dia tonga tamin’ i Jeremia tao Tapanesa ny tenin’ i Jehovah hoe:

So the word of Yahweh came to Jeremiah in Tahpanhes, saying,

9 Mitondrà vato lehibe eny an-tananao, ka afeno ao amin’ ny feta ao amin’ ny gorodona taila, izay eo akaikin’ ny vavahady amin’ ny tranon’ i Farao ao Tapanesa, eo imason’ ny lehilahy amin’ ny Joda,

“Take some large stones in your hand, and, in the sight of the people of Judah, hide them in the mortar in the pavement at the entrance to Pharaoh's house in Tahpanhes.”

10 ka lazao aminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely: Indro Aho haniraka haka an’ i Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ i Babylona, mpanompoko, ka haoriko amin’ ireto vato nafeniko ireto ny seza fiandrianany; ary hamelatra ny lambany tsara tarehy hatao alokaloka eo amboniny izy.

Then say to them, “Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel, says this, 'See, I am about to send messengers to take Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon as my servant. I will place his throne over these stones that you, Jeremiah, have buried. Nebuchadnezzar will place his pavilion over them.

11 Eny, ho avy izy hamely ny tany Egypta, ka izay ho amin’ ny areti-mandringana dia ho amin’ ny areti-mandringana, ary izay ho amin’ ny fahababoana dia ho amin’ ny fahababoana, ary izay ho amin’ ny sabatra dia ho amin’ ny sabatra.

For he will come and attack the land of Egypt. Anyone who is assigned to death will be given to death. Anyone who is assigned to captivity will be taken captive. Anyone who is assigned to the sword will be given to the sword.

12 Ary handrehitra afo ao amin’ ny tranon’ ny andriamanitr’ i Egypta Aho, ka dia hodorany sy hobaboiny ireo, ary hitafy ny tany Egypta izy toy ny fitafin’ ny mpiandry ondry ny lambany; ary hiala any amin’ ny fiadanana izy.

Then I will light a fire in the temples of Egypt's gods. Nebuchadnezzar will burn them or capture them. He will clean out the land of Egypt just as shepherds clean vermin off their clothes. He will go out from that place in victory.

13 Ary hotorotoroiny ny tsangam-baton-tsampy ao Beti-semesy, izay any amin’ ny tany Egypta; ary hodorany amin’ ny afo ny tranon’ ny andriamanitr’ i Egypta.

He will break the stone pillars at Heliopolis in the land of Egypt. He will burn the temples of Egypt's gods.'”
