Jeremia 44

1 Ny teny izay tonga tamin’ i Jeremia ho amin’ ny Jiosy rehetra izay nonina tany amin’ ny tany Egypta, dia izay nonina tao Migdola sy Tapanesa sy Memfisa, ary tany amin’ ny tany Patrosa, nanao hoe:

The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the Jews who lived in the land of Egypt, who lived at Migdol, and at Tahpanhes, and at Memphis, and in the country of Pathros, saying,

2 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely: Hianareo efa nahita ny loza rehetra izay nataoko nihatra tamin’ i Jerosalema sy ny tanànan’ ny Joda rehetra; ary, indro, efa tany lao ireo ankehitriny, ka tsy misy olona monina intsony ao aminy,

"Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: 'You have seen all the evil that I have brought on Jerusalem, and on all the cities of Judah; and look, this day they are a desolation, and no man dwells in them,

3 noho ny ratsy nataony hampahatezitra Ahy tamin’ ny nandehanany handoro ditin-kazo manitra sy hanompo andriamani-kafa izay tsy fantany, na iza, na ianareo, na ny razanareo.

because of their wickedness which they have committed to provoke me to anger, in that they went to burn incense, to serve other gods, that they did not know, neither they, nor you, nor your fathers.

4 Ary naniraka ny mpaminany mpanompoko rehetra taminareo Aho, eny, nifoha maraina koa Aho ka naniraka azy hanao hoe: Masìna ianareo, aza manao izany fahavetavetana halako izany.

However I sent to you all my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them, saying, 'Oh, do not do this abominable thing that I hate.'

5 Nefa tsy nihaino izy na nanongilana ny sofiny hialany amin’ ny haratsiany tsy handoro ditin-kazo manitra ho an’ andriamani-kafa.

But they did not listen, nor inclined their ear to turn from their wickedness, to burn no incense to other gods.

6 Ka dia naidina ny fahavinirako sy ny fahatezerako, eny, nandoro ny tanànan’ ny Joda, sy ny teny amin’ ny lalamben’ i Jerosalema izany, ka dia rava sy lao ireny tahaka ny amin’ izao anio izao.

Therefore my wrath and my anger was poured forth, and was kindled in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem; and they are wasted and desolate, as it is this day.'

7 Koa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny maro, dia Andriamanitry ny Isiraely: Ahoana no anaovanareo izao ratsy lehibe singotry ny ainareo izao, haharingana ny lehilahy sy ny vehivavy, ny ankizy madinika sy ny zaza minono ao amin’ ny Joda tsy hahamisy miangana anareo,

Therefore now thus says the LORD, the God of hosts, the God of Israel: 'Why do you commit great evil against your own souls, to cut off from yourselves man and woman, infant and nursing child out of the midst of Judah, to leave yourselves none remaining;

8 noho ny ampahatezeranareo Ahy amin’ ny asan’ ny tananareo sy amin’ ny andoroana ditin-kazo manitra ho an’ andriamani-kafa any amin’ ny tany Egypta izay alehanareo hivahiniana, mba haharingana anareo ka hahatonga anareo ho fanozonana sy ho fandatsa any amin’ ny firenena rehetra ambonin’ ny tany?

in that you provoke me to anger with the works of your hands, burning incense to other gods in the land of Egypt, where you have gone to live; that you may be cut off, and that you may be a curse and a reproach among all the nations of the earth?

9 Moa hadinonareo va ny ratsy nataon’ ny razanareo sy ny mpanjakan’ ny Joda sy ny vadiny ary ny tenanareo sy ny vadinareo, dia izay nataony tany amin’ ny tanin’ ny Joda sy teny amin’ ny lalamben’ i Jerosalema?

Have you forgotten the wickedness of your fathers, and the wickedness of the kings of Judah, and the wickedness of their wives, and your own wickedness, and the wickedness of your wives which they committed in the land of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem?

10 Tsy mbola torotoro fo izy na dia mandraka androany aza sady tsy natahotra na nandeha araka ny lalàko sy ny didiko, izay napetrako teo anoloanareo sy teo anoloan’ ny razanareo.

They are not humbled even to this day, neither have they feared, nor walked in my law, nor in my statutes, that I set before you and before your fathers.'

11 Koa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely: Indro, hanandrina anareo Aho hahatonga loza haharingana ny Joda rehetra.

Therefore thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: 'Look, I will set my face against you for evil, even to cut off all Judah.

12 Ary halaiko ny sisa amin’ ny Joda, izay nikiry hankany amin’ ny tany Egypta hivahiny any, ka ho lany ritra izy rehetra; any amin’ ny tany Egypta no hahalavoany, samy ho ringan’ ny sabatra sy ny mosary, eny, na ny kely na ny lehibe dia samy ho fatin-tsabatra sy mosary izy rehetra ka ho tonga fianianana sy figagana sy fanozonana ary fandatsa.

I will take the remnant of Judah, that have set their faces to go into the land of Egypt to live there, and they shall all be consumed; in the land of Egypt shall they fall; they shall be consumed by the sword and by the famine; they shall die, from the least even to the greatest, by the sword and by the famine; and they shall be an object of horror, an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach.

13 Fa hovaliako izay monina any amin’ ny tany Egypta, toy ny namaliako an’ i Jerosalema, dia amin’ ny sabatra sy ny mosary ary ny areti-mandringana.

For I will punish those who dwell in the land of Egypt, as I have punished Jerusalem, by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence;

14 Ary na sisa amin’ ny Joda izay lasa nivahiny tany Egypta dia tsy hisy ho afa-mandositra ho tafaverina any amin’ ny tanin’ ny Joda, izay niriny hiverenana mba honenany, afa-tsy izay vitsy sendra afa-mandositra ihany.

so that none of the remnant of Judah, who have gone into the land of Egypt to live there, shall escape or be left, to return into the land of Judah, to which they have a desire to return to dwell there: for none shall return save such as shall escape.'"

15 Ary ny lehilahy rehetra, izay nahalala fa ny vadiny efa nandoro ditin-kazo manitra ho an’ andriamani-kafa, sy ny vehivavy rehetra izay nitsangana teo, dia vahoaka be dia be, ary ny olona rehetra izay nonina tany amin’ ny tany Egypta, tao Patrosa, dia namaly an’ i Jeremia hoe:

Then all the men who knew that their wives burned incense to other gods, and all the women who stood by, a great assembly, even all the people who lived in the land of Egypt, in Pathros, answered Jeremiah, saying,

16 Raha ny amin’ ilay teny voalazanao taminay tamin’ ny anaran’ i Jehovah, dia tsy hihaino anao izahay.

"As for the word that you have spoken to us in the name of the LORD, we will not listen to you.

17 Fa hataonay tokoa ny teny rehetra izay naloaky ny vavanay, dia ny handoro ditin-kazo manitra ho an’ ny mpanjakavavin’ ny lanitra sy ny hanidina fanatitra aidina ho azy, toy ny efa nataonay sy ny razanay sy ny mpanjakanay ary ny mpanapaka anay tany amin’ ny tanànan’ ny Joda sy teny amin’ ny lalamben’ i Jerosalema; fa fahizany dia voky hanina izahay sady nambinina ary tsy nahita loza.

But we will certainly perform every word that is gone forth out of our mouth, to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to her, as we have done, we and our fathers, our kings and our leaders, in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem; for then had we plenty of food, and were well, and saw no evil.

18 Fa hatrizay nitsaharanay tsy nandoro ditin-kazo manitra ho an’ ny mpanjakavavin’ ny lanitra na nanidina fanatitra aidina ho azy izay, dia saiky tsy nanana na inona na inona akory izahay sady ringan’ ny sabatra sy ny mosary.

But since we left off burning incense to the queen of heaven, and pouring out drink offerings to her, we have wanted all things, and have been consumed by the sword and by the famine."

19 Ary raha nandoro ditin-kazo manitra ho an’ ny mpanjakavavin’ ny lanitra izahay sy nanidina fanatitra aidina ho azy, moa tsy fantatry ny vadinay va ny nanaovanay mofo hasiana ny sariny sy ny nanidinanay fanatitra aidina ho azy?

And the women said, "When we burned incense to the queen of heaven, and poured out drink offerings to her, did we make her cakes to worship her, and pour out drink offerings to her, without our husbands?"

20 Ary hoy Jeremia tamin’ ny olona rehetra, na ny lehilahy na ny vehivavy, dia ny olona rehetra izay efa namaly azy:

Then Jeremiah said to all the people, to the men, and to the women, even to all the people who had given him an answer, saying,

21 Ny nandoroanareo ditin-kazo manitra tany an-tanànan’ ny Joda sy tany an-dalamben’ i Jerosalema, dia ianareo sy ny razanareo sy ny mpanjakanareo sy ny mpanapaka anareo mbamin’ ny vahoaka, moa tsy hotsarovan’ i Jehovah va izany, ary tsy tao an-tsainy va?

"The incense that you burned in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, you and your fathers, your kings and your leaders, and the people of the land. Did not the LORD remember them, and did not it come into his mind,

22 Ka dia tsy nahalefitra intsony Jehovah noho ny faharatsian’ ny nataonareo sy noho ny fahavetavetana izay nataonareo; koa izany no nanaovana ny taninareo ho lao sy ho figagana ary ho fanozonana, ka tsy misy mponina, tahaka ny amin’ izao anio izao.

so that the LORD could no longer bear because of the evil of your doings, and because of the abominations which you have committed? Therefore your land has become a desolation, and an astonishment, and a curse, without inhabitant, as it is this day.

23 Noho ny nandoroanareo ditin-kazo manitra sy ny nanotanareo tamin’ i Jehovah, fa tsy nihaino ny feon’ i Jehovah, na nandeha araka ny lalàny sy ny didiny ary ny teny vavolombelony ianareo, dia izany no nahatonga izao loza izao taminareo tahaka ny amin’ izao anio izao,

Because you have burned incense, and because you have sinned against the LORD, and have not obeyed the voice of the LORD, nor walked in his law, nor in his statutes, nor in his testimonies; therefore this evil has happened to you, as it is this day."

24 Ary hoy koa Jeremia tamin’ ny olona rehetra sy tamin’ ny vehivavy rehetra: Mihainoa ny tenin’ i Jehovah, ry Joda rehetra, izay atỳ amin’ ny tany Egypta:

Moreover Jeremiah said to all the people, and to all the women, "Hear the word of the LORD, all Judah who are in the land of Egypt:

25 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely: Hianareo sy ny vadinareo samy niteny tamin’ ny vavanareo sady nanatanteraka tamin’ ny tananareo ka nanao hoe: Hanefa tokoa izay efa nivoadianay izahay ka handoro ditin-kazo manitra ho an’ ny mpanjakavavin’ ny lanitra sy hanidina fanatitra aidina ho azy; eny, hefainareo tokoa ny voadinareo sady hataonareo tanteraka.

Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, saying, 'You and your wives have both spoken with your mouths, and with your hands have fulfilled it, saying, "We will surely perform our vows that we have vowed, to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to her": establish then your vows, and perform your vows.'

26 Koa henoinareo ny tenin’ i Jehovah, ry Joda rehetra, izay monina atỳ amin’ ny tany Egypta: Indro Aho efa nianiana tamin’ ny anarako lehibe, hoy Jehovah, fa tsy hotononin’ ny vavan’ ny lehilahy amin’ ny Joda eran’ ny tany Egypta intsony ny anarako hanao hoe: Raha velona koa Jehovah Tompo.

Therefore hear the word of the LORD, all Judah who dwell in the land of Egypt: 'Look, I have sworn by my great name,' says the LORD, 'that my name shall no more be named in the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying, "As the LORD lives."

27 Indro, miambina anareo Aho hahatonga loza, fa tsy soa; ary ny lehilahy rehetra amin’ ny Joda, izay atỳ amin’ ny tany Egypta, dia ho ringan’ ny sabatra sy ny mosary mandra-pahalany ritrany.

Look, I watch over them for disaster, and not for good; and all the men of Judah who are in the land of Egypt shall be consumed by the sword and by the famine, until they are all gone.

28 Ary izay afa-mandositra ny sabatra dia ho tafaverina avy atỳ amin’ ny tany Egypta ho any amin’ ny tanin’ ny Joda, ho vitsy foana anefa ireny; ary ny sisa amin’ ny Joda rehetra izay mankany amin’ ny tany Egypta hivahiny any dia hahafantatra izay ho tò teny, na ho Izaho, na ho izy.

Those who escape the sword shall return out of the land of Egypt into the land of Judah, few in number; and all the remnant of Judah, who have gone into the land of Egypt to live there, shall know whose word shall stand, mine, or theirs.

29 Ary izao no famantarana ho anareo, hoy Jehovah, fa hovaliako eto amin’ ity tany ity ianareo, mba hahafantaranareo fa tò tokoa ny teniko hahatonga loza aminareo:

This shall be the sign to you,' says the LORD, 'that I will punish you in this place, that you may know that my words shall surely stand against you for evil':

30 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Indro, Farao-hofra, mpanjakan’ i Egypta, hatolotro eo an-tànan’ ny fahavalony sy eo an-tànan’ izay miady ny ainy, toy ny efa nanolorako an’ i Zedekia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, ho eo an-tànan’ i Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ i Babylona, izay fahavalony nitady ny ainy.

Thus says the LORD, 'Look, I will give Pharaoh Hophra king of Egypt into the hand of his enemies, and into the hand of those who seek his life; as I gave Zedekiah king of Judah into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, who was his enemy, and sought his life.'"
