Jeremia 46
1 Ny tenin’ i Jehovah Izay tonga tamin’ i Jeremia mpaminany ny amin’ ny jentilisa.
So much of the word of Yahweh as came unto Jeremiah the prophet concerning the nations.
2 Ny amin’ i Egypta. Ny amin’ ny miaramilan’ i Farao-neko, mpanjakan’ i Egypta, izay teny amoron’ ny ony Eofrata, tany Karkemisy, dia ilay resin’ i Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ i Babylona, tamin’ ny taona fahefatra nanjakan’ i Joiakima, zanak’ i Josia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda:
Of Egypt, Concerning the force of Pharaoh-necho, king of Egypt, which was by the river Euphrates, in Carchemish, —which Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, smote, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah, king of Judah: —
3 Mitaova amin’ ny ampinga kely sy ny ampinga lehibe, ka mandrosoa hiady;
Prepare ye buckler and shield, And draw near to battle:
4 Fehezo amin’ ny kalesy ny soavaly, ary itaingeno ny soavaly fitaingina; Mijoroa tsara ianareo, ka samia misatroka fiarovan-doha; Fotsio ny lefona, miakanjoa ny akanjo fiarovan-tena.
Harness the horses, and mount, ye horsemen, Stand forth in helmets, —Polish the lances, put on the coats of mail.
5 Indrisy ny ahitako azy! raiki-tahotra sy miamboho izy, ary ny maheriny aza dia efa ripaka, sady miezaka mandositra izy ka tsy miherika akory; Fa misy fampangorohoroana manodidina, hoy Jehovah.
Why have I seen it? They, panic-struck, are drawing back, Yea, their heroes, are crushed, Yea they have, fled, and not turned, —Terror round about! Declareth Yahweh.
6 Tsy ho afa-mandositra ny haingan-tongotra, na ho afaka ny mahery; Any avaratra eo amoron’ ny ony Eofrata no hahatafintohina sy hahalavo azy.
Let not the swift, flee, Nor let the hero, escape, —Northward, beside the river Euphrates, have they stumbled, and fallen.
7 Iza moa izato mizotra tahaka an’ i Neily, ary ny onjany misamboaravoara toy ny renirano
Who is it that is like the Nile when it riseth, Like rivers when his waters are tossed?
8 Egypta mizotra tahaka an’ i Neily, ary ny onjany misamboaravoara toy ny renirano, ary hoy izy: Hizotra aho ka hanafotra ny tany; Haringako ny tanàna sy ny mponina ao aminy.
Egypt was like the Nile when it riseth, And like rivers, when the waters are tossed: So he said—I will rise, I will cover the earth, I will destroy the city, and the dwellers therein.
9 Miakara, ianareo soavaly, ary miriota toy ny adala, ianareo kalesy; Ary aoka hivoaka ny lehilahy mahery, dia ny Etiopiana sy ny Libyana, izay mitana ampinga, ary ny Lydiana, izay mitana sy manenjana tsipìka.
Mount the horses, And drive the chariots madly on, So let the heroes, go forth, —Ethiopians and Libyans that grasp the buckler, And Lydians that grasp—that tread—the bow, But, that day, belongeth to My Lord Yahweh of hosts—
10 Fa izao andro izao dia an’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, ho andro famaliana hamaliany ny fahavalony; Ary ny sabatra hihinana ka ho voky sy ho mamon’ ny ran’ ireo; Fa ny Tompo, dia Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, no mamono zavatra hatao fanatitra any amin’ ny tany avaratra ao amoron’ ny ony Eofrata.
A day of avenging, to avenge him of his adversaries, When the sword shall devour and be filled, and be sated with their blood, —For, a sacrifice, hath My Lord, Yahweh of hosts, In the land of the North Towards the river Euphrates.
11 Miakara any Gileada, ka makà balsama, ry Egypta zanakavavy virijina; Foana ny nanaovanao fanafody maro, fa tsy manana plasitera hapetaka amin’ ny ferinao ianao,
Go up to Gilead and fetch balsam, O virgin daughter of Egypt! In vain, hast thou multiplied remedies, Healing, there is none for thee.
12 Efa ren’ ny firenena ny henatrao, ary ny fiantsoantsoanao nanenika ny tany; fa mifandona ny samy mahery, ka miara-davo izy roa tonta.
The nations have heard of thy disgrace, And, thine outcry, hath filled the earth, —For hero against hero, have they stumbled, Together, have fallen, the twain!
13 Ny teny izay nolazain’ i Jehovah tamin’ i Jeremia mpaminany ny amin’ ny hihavian’ i Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ i Babylona, hamely ny tany Egypta.
The word which Yahweh spake unto Jeremiah the prophet, —as to the coming of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon to smite the land of Egypt: —
14 Ambaraonareo any Egypta, ary torio any Migdola, eny, torio any Memfisa sy Tapanesa, ka ataovy hoe: Mijoroa tsara ianao, ka miomàna; Fa mandringana manodidina anao ny sabatra.
Tell ye it in Egypt, And let it be heard in Migdol, Yea let it be heard in Noph, and in Tahpanhes, —Say ye—Stand thou forth, and prepare thyself, For a sword hath devoured round about thee.
15 Nahoana no voapaoka ny maherinao? Tsy nahafahatra izy, satria Jehovah no nandroaka azy.
Wherefore have thy valiant ones been laid prostrate? He hath made no stand, because, Yahweh, hath driven him back:
16 Efa nahatafintohina ny maro Izy, ka lavo mifanindry ireo; Dia hoy ireo: Mitsangàna, ka andeha isika hiverina ho any amin’ ny firenentsika sy ho any amin’ ny tany nahaterahantsika ho afaka amin’ ny sabatra mandoza,
Hath made many a one to be stumbling, Yea fallen is every one against his neighbour, So they have said—Arise and let us return to our own people, And unto the land of our birth, From the face of the sword of the oppressor.
17 Nitaraina tany izy hoe: Tabataba foana Farao, mpanjakan’ i Egypta, efa nandiso ny fotoana izy.
Proclaim ye a name, —Pharaoh, king of Egypt—a Sound! He hath overstepped the time appointed!
18 Raha velona koa Aho, hoy ny Mpanjaka, Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, no anarany: Tahaka an’ i Tabara amin’ ny tendrombohitra, sy tahaka an’ i Karmela ao amoron-dranomasina, dia ho tahaka izany no hihaviany.
As I live, saith the King, Yahweh of hosts, is his name: Though Like Tabor among mountains, Like Carmel, Into the sea shall he go!
19 Ry Egypta zanakavavy mponina, Mifeheza entana ho entinao any amin’ ny fahababoana; Fa ho tonga tany lao Memfisa, eny, hodorana izy, ka tsy hisy mponina.
Baggage for captivity, prepare thee, O inhabitress, daughter of Egypt; For, Noph, shall become a desolation, And be burned without inhabitant.
20 Egypta dia tahaka ny ombivavy kely tsara tarehy dia tsara tarehy; Fa injay! tamy, eny, tamy ny fihitra avy any avaratra!
A calf of great beauty, is Egypt: The gad-fly, out of the North, cometh—cometh.
21 Na dia ny olona karamaina ao aminy aza, izay tahaka ny ombilahy kely mifahy, ireny koa dia mihodìna ka samy mandositra avokoa; Tsy mahajanona izy, fa efa tonga aminy ny andro hahitany loza, dia ny andro hamaliana azy.
Even her hirelings in her midst are like fatted calves, For, even they, have turned—have fled at once! have made no stand! For, their day of doom, hath come upon them, The time of their visitation.
22 Ny feony dia toy ny fikasaotsaoky ny menarana mandeha; Fa mandeha hitondra miaramila izy ka avy hamely azy amin’ ny famaky toy ny mpikapa hazo.
Her noise, like a serpent, departeth, —For, with a force, they advance, And with axes, have they come against her, like them who fell trees:
23 Kapainy ny alany, hoy Jehovah, satria efa nikirindro loatra; Fa maro noho ny valala izy ka tsy tambo isaina.
They have cut down her forest Declareth Yahweh, Surely he cannot be searched out, —For they have outnumbered locusts, and cannot be counted.
24 Ho afa-baraka Egypta zanakavavy, Hatolotra eo an-tànan’ ny olona any avaratra izy.
Put to shame is the daughter of Egypt, —She hath been delivered into the hand of the people of the North.
25 Ary hoy Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely; Indro, hovaliako Amona avy any Nô Ary Farao sy Egypta mbamin’ ny andriamaniny sy ny mpanjakany, dia Farao sy izay rehetra matoky azy;
Saith Yahweh of host God of Israel, —Behold me! bringing punishment—against Amon of No, and upon Pharaoh and upon Egypt, and upon her gods and upon her kings, —Even upon Pharaoh, and upon all that trust in him;
26 Ary hatolotro eo an-tànan’ izay mitady ny ainy izy, dia eo an-tànan’ i Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ i Babylona, sy eo an-tànan’ ny mpanompony; Ary aorian’ izany, dia handry fahizay toy ny tamin’ ny andro fahiny ihany izy, hoy Jehovah.
And I will deliver them—Into the hand of them who are seeking their life, Even into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon And into the hand of his servants, —And after that, shall it be inhabited as in the days of old Declareth Yahweh.
27 Fa aza matahotra ianao, ry Jakoba mpanompoko, ary aza mivadi-po, ry Isiraely; Fa, indro, hovonjeko avy any amin’ ny lavitra ianao, ary ny taranakao avy any amin’ ny tany nahababo azy; Dia hiverina Jakoba ka hiadana, eny, handry fahizay izy, ka tsy hisy hanaitaitra azy.
Thou, therefore, do not fear, O my Servant Jacob Nor be dismayed O Israel, For behold me! Saving thee from afar, And thy seed from the land of their captivity, —So shall Jacob return and be quiet and shall rest, With none to occasion alarm.
28 Aza matahotra ianao, ry Jakoba mpanompoko, hoy Jehovah, fa momba anao Aho; Fa na dia levoniko aza ny firenena rehetra izay nandroahako anao, ianao tsy mba holevoniko, nefa kosa mba hanariko araka ny antonony ihany ianao, fa tsy dia havelako fotsiny.
Thou, do not fear, O my Servant Jacob, Urgeth Yahweh, For, with thee, am I: Though I make an end of all the nations whither I have driven thee, Yet of thee, will I not make an end, But will correct thee in measure, And not hold thee, guiltless,
