Jeremia 51
1 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Indro, hamporisihiko ny fanahin’ ny mpandringana hamely an’ i Babylona sy izay monina ao Leba-kamay.
Thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will raise up against Babylon, and against them that dwell in the midst of them that rise against me, a destroying wind;
2 Ary haniraka olona hafa firenena ho any Babylona Aho, izay hikororoka azy ka hahafoana ny taniny; Fa hamely azy manodidina amin’ ny andro fahoriana ireo.
And will send to Babylon fanners, that shall fan her, and shall empty her land: for in the day of trouble they shall be against her on all sides.
3 Izay manenjana tsipìka mbamin’ izay miandranandrana amin’ ny akanjo fiarovan-tenany, dia aoka samy hasian’ izay manenjana tsipìka; Aza tsitsinareo ny zatovony, aringano avokoa ny miaramilany rehetra,
Against [him that] bendeth let the archer bend his bow, and against [him that] lifteth himself up in his coat of mail: and spare ye not her young men; destroy ye utterly all her host.
4 Mba hiampatrampatra any amin’ ny tanin’ ny Kaldeana ny faty, ary izay voatrobaka dia hiampatrampatra any an-dalambeny.
Thus the slain shall fall in the land of the Chaldeans, and [they that are] thrust through in her streets.
5 Fa Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely sy ny Joda, dia tsy hahafoy azy ho mpitondratena, na dia henika ny fahotany amin’ ny Iray Masin’ ny Isiraely aza ny taniny.
For Israel [hath] not [been] forsaken, nor Judah by his God, by the LORD of hosts; though their land was filled with sin against the Holy One of Israel.
6 Mandosira hiala an’ i Babylona ianareo, ary samia mamonjy ny ainareo avy; Aoka tsy ho voaringana noho ny fahotany ianareo; Fa izao no andro famalian’ i Jehovah, Izy no hamaly azy.
Flee from the midst of Babylon, and deliver every man his soul: be not cut off in her iniquity; for this [is] the time of the LORD'S vengeance; he will render to her a recompense.
7 Babylona dia kapoaka volamena teny an-tànan’ i Jehovah, Izay nahamamo ny tany rehetra; Ny divainy efa nisotroan’ ny firenena, koa izany no nahavery saina ireny.
Babylon [hath been] a golden cup in the LORD'S hand, that made all the earth drunken: the nations have drank of her wine; therefore the nations are mad.
8 Tampoka no naharavan’ i Babylona sy nahatorotoroany; Idradradradrao izy; Makà balsama hatao amin’ ny feriny maharary azy, fa angamba ho sitrana ihany izy.
Babylon is suddenly fallen and destroyed: howl for her; take balm for her pain, it may be she may be healed.
9 Nitady hanasitrana an’ i Babylona izahay, nefa tsy nety sitrana izy; Afoizo izy, ka andeha isika samy handeha ho any amin’ ny tanintsika avy; Fa mahatakatra ny lanitra ny helony ary mitehika amin’ ny rahona.
We would have healed Babylon, but she is not healed: forsake her, and let us go every one into his own country: for her judgment reacheth to heaven, and is lifted [even] to the skies.
10 Nasehon’ i Jehovah ny fahamarinantsika; Andeha, ka aoka hotorintsika ao Ziona ny asan’ i Jehovah Andriamanitsika.
The LORD hath brought forth our righteousness: come, and let us declare in Zion the work of the LORD our God.
11 Lambolamboy ny zana-tsipìka, tano ny ampinga; Jehovah efa namporisika ny fanahin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Mediana; Fa ny hamely an’ i Babylona no nosaininy, mba handringanana azy; Fa famalian’ i Jehovah izany, eny, famaliana noho ny tempoliny.
Make bright the arrows; gather the shields: the LORD hath raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes: for his purpose [is] against Babylon, to destroy it; because it [is] the vengeance of the LORD, the vengeance of his temple.
12 Manangàna faneva eo akaikin’ ny mandan’ i Babylona; Ataovy mafy ny fiambenana; Alatsaho ny mpiambina, alamino ny Otrika; Fa Jehovah sady efa nisaina no nahatanteraka izay nolazainy ny amin’ ny mponina any Babylona.
Set up the standard upon the walls of Babylon, make the watch strong, set up the watchmen, prepare the ambushes: for the LORD hath both devised and done that which he spoke against the inhabitants of Babylon.
13 Hianao izay monina eny amoron’ ny rano be sady be rakitra, tonga ny fiafaranao, ka tsy hisy intsony ny filanao harena.
O thou that dwellest upon many waters, abundant in treasures, thy end is come, [and] the measure of thy covetousness.
14 Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, nianiana tamin’ ny tenany hoe: Hofenoiko olona maro toy ny valala tokoa ianao, ary ireny dia hanakora hamely anao,
The LORD of hosts hath sworn by himself, [saying], Surely I will fill thee with men, as with caterpillars; and they shall raise a shout against thee.
15 Dia Ilay nanao ny tany tamin’ ny heriny sy nampiorina izao tontolo izao tamin’ ny fahendreny ary namelatra ny lanitra tamin’ ny fisainany.
He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and hath stretched out the heaven by his understanding.
16 Raha nampirohondrohona ny rano any an-danitra Izy, dia nampiakatra zavona avy tany amin’ ny faran’ ny tany; Manao ny helatra ho an’ ny ranonorana Izy sady mamoaka ny rivotra avy amin’ ny firaketany.
When he uttereth [his] voice, [there is] a multitude of waters in the heavens; and he causeth the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth: he maketh lightnings with rain, and bringeth forth the wind out of his treasures.
17 Efa ketrina avokoa ny olona rehetra ka tsy manam-pahalalana; Menarina ny mpanefy volamena rehetra noho ny amin’ ny sarin-javatra voasokitra; Fa fitaka ny sarin-javatra an-idina, satria tsy misy aina ao aminy.
Every man is brutish by [his] knowledge; every founder is confounded by the graven image: for his molten image [is] falsehood, and [there is] no breath in them.
18 Zava-poana ireny, dia asa mahatsikaiky foana; Amin’ ny andro hamaliana azy dia ho levona izy.
They [are] vanity, the work of errors: in the time of their visitation they shall perish.
19 Tsy mba tahaka ireo ny Anjaran’ i Jakoba, fa Mpamorona ny zavatra rehetra Izy; Ary ny Isiraely no firenena lovany; Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, no anarany.
The portion of Jacob [is] not like them; for he [is] the former of all things: and [Israel is] the rod of his inheritance: the LORD of hosts [is] his name.
20 Langilangiko sy fiadiako ianao; Fa ianao no ho entiko manorotoro firenena, ary ianao no ho entiko mandringana fanjakana,
Thou [art] my battle-ax [and] weapons of war: for with thee will I break in pieces the nations, and with thee will I destroy kingdoms;
21 Ary ianao no ho entiko manorotoro soavaly sy ny mpitaingina azy, ary ianao no ho entiko manorotoro ny kalesy sy ny mpitaingina azy;
And with thee will I break in pieces the horse and his rider; and with thee will I break in pieces the chariot and its rider;
22 Hianao koa no ho entiko manorotoro ny lehilahy sy ny vehivavy, ary ianao no ho entiko manorotoro ny antitra sy ny tanora, ary ianao no ho entiko manorotoro ny zatovo sy ny virijina;
With thee also will I break in pieces man and woman; and with thee will I break in pieces old and young; and with thee will I break in pieces the young man and the maid;
23 Hianao koa no ho entiko manorotoro ny mpiandry ondry sy ny ondry andiany, ary ianao no ho entiko manorotoro ny mpiasa tany sy ny ombiny roa mizioga, ary ianao no ho entiko manorotoro ny governora sy ny lefiny.
I will also break in pieces with thee the shepherd and his flock; and with thee will I break in pieces the husbandman and his yoke of oxen; and with thee will I break in pieces captains and rulers.
24 Ary hampanodiaviko an’ i Babylona sy ny mponina rehetra any Kaldea ny ratsy rehetra izay efa nataony tao Ziona teo imasonareo, hoy Jehovah.
And I will render to Babylon and to all the inhabitants of Chaldea all their evil that they have done in Zion in your sight, saith the LORD.
25 Indro mamely anao Aho, ry tendrombohitra ahitan-doza. Izay mandringana ny tany rehetra, hoy Jehovah; Ary hahinjitro ny tanako hamelezana anao, dia hakodiako hianjera amin’ ny harambato ianao ka hataoko tendrombohitra mirehitra.
Behold, I [am] against thee, O destroying mountain, saith the LORD, which destroyest all the earth: and I will stretch out my hand upon thee, and roll thee down from the rocks, and will make thee a burnt mountain.
26 Ary tsy mba hakana vato hatao fehizoro ianao, na hatao vato fanorenana; Fa ho lao mandrakizay ianao, hoy Jehovah.
And they shall not take of thee a stone for a corner, nor a stone for foundations; but thou shalt be desolate for ever, saith the LORD.
27 Manangana faneva eny amin’ ny tany; Mitsofa anjomara any amin’ ny firenena; Manendre firenena hamely azy; Antsoy ny fanjakan’ i Ararata sy Miny ary Askenaza hamely azy; Asio mpifehy hamely azy; Mampiakara soavaly toy ny valala volovoloina.
Set ye up a standard in the land, blow the trumpet among the nations, prepare the nations against her, call together against her the kingdoms of Ararat, Minni, and Ashchenaz; appoint a captain against her; cause the horses to come up as the rough caterpillars.
28 Manendre firenena sy ireo mpanjakan’ ny Mediana hamely azy, ny governora sy ny lefiny rehetra ary ny tany rehetra anjakany.
Prepare against her the nations with the kings of Media, her captains, and all her rulers, and all the land of his dominion.
29 Mihorohoro sy mangovitra ny tany; Fa tanterahina amin’ i Babylona ny fikasan’ i Jehovah rehetra, mba hahatonga ny tany Babylona ho lao tsy misy mponina.
And the land shall tremble and sorrow: for every purpose of the LORD shall be performed against Babylon, to make the land of Babylon a desolation without an inhabitant.
30 Nitsahatra tamin’ ny ady ny lehilahy maherin’ i Babylona, nitoetra tao amin’ ny batery fiarovana izy, lany ny heriny; Tonga toy ny vehivavy izy; Nodorana ny fonenany, tapaka ny hidiny.
The mighty men of Babylon have forborne to fight, they have remained in [their] holds: their might hath failed; they became as women: they have burned her dwelling-places; her bars are broken.
31 Mifamoivoy be ihany ny iraka mpihazakazaka, ary mifamoivoy be ihany ny mpitondra teny, mba hanambara amin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona Fa afaka ny tanànany manontolo.
One post shall run to meet another, and one messenger to meet another, to show the king of Babylon that his city is taken at [one] end,
32 Ary efa azo ny fitàna, ary nodorany tamin’ ny afo ny heniheny, sady toran-kovitra ny miaramila.
And that the passages are stopped, and the reeds they have burned with fire, and the men of war are affrighted.
33 Fa izao no lazain i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely: Babylona zanakavavy dia tahaka ny famoloana amin’ ny andro anosena azy; Ary raha mbola tsy toy inona dia ho avy ny andro hijinjana azy.
For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; The daughter of Babylon [is] like a threshing-floor, [it is] time to thresh her: yet a little while, and the time of her harvest shall come.
34 Efa lanin’ i Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan’ i Babylona, izahay; Naringany izahay; Napetrany toy ny vata tsy misy entana izahay; Nateliny toy ny fitelin’ ny mamba izahay; Nivokisan’ ny kibony ny zava-piko, ka dia nandroaka ahy izy.
Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon hath devoured me, he hath crushed me, he hath made me an empty vessel, he hath swallowed me up like a dragon, he hath filled his belly with my delicates, he hath cast me out.
35 Aoka ny mponina ao Ziona hanao hoe: Hanody an’ i Babylona anie ny loza nanjo ahy sy ny nofoko! Ary aoka Jerosalema hanao hoe: Hanody ny mponina any Kaldea anie ny rako!
The violence done to me and to my flesh [be] upon Babylon, shall the inhabitant of Zion say; and my blood upon the inhabitants of Chaldea, shall Jerusalem say.
36 Koa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Indro, hisolo vava anao amin’ ny adinao Aho sady hanao famaliana ho anao, ary horitiko ny ranomasiny, sy hataoko tankina ny loharanony.
Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will plead thy cause, and take vengeance for thee; and I will dry up her sea, and make her springs dry.
37 Ary Babylona ho tonga korontam-bato, ho fonenan’ ny amboadia, ho figagana sy ho zavatra mampisitrisitra, ka tsy hisy mponina.
And Babylon shall become heaps, a dwelling-place for dragons, an astonishment, and a hissing, without an inhabitant.
38 Hiara-mierona toy ny liona tanora izy; Hikaonkaona toy ny zana-diona izy.
They shall roar together like lions: they shall yell as lions' whelps.
39 Raha mbola liana izy, dia hanaovako fanasana ho azy, ka hataoko mamo izy mba hiravoravo, dia hatory amin’ ny torimaso mandrakizay izy ka tsy hifoha intsony, hoy Jehovah.
In their heat I will make their feasts, and I will make them drunken, that they may rejoice, and sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake, saith the LORD.
40 Hampidiniko ho any amin’ ny famonoana toy ny zanak’ ondry izy, sy toy ny ondrilahy mbamin’ ny osilahy.
I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter, like rams with he-goats.
41 Endrey! afaka Sesaka! Ary azo ilay fidèran’ ny tany rehetra, Endrey! tonga figagana any amin’ ny firenena Babylona.
How is Sheshach taken! and how is the praise of the whole earth surprised! how is Babylon become an astonishment among the nations!
42 Ny ranomasina nanafotra an’ i Babylona; Voasaron’ ny habetsahan’ ny onjany izy.
The sea is come up upon Babylon: she is covered with the multitude of its waves.
43 Ny tanànany dia lao sy karankaina ary tani-hay, dia tany tsy onenan’ olona sady tsy misy zanak’ olombelona mamaky eo.
Her cities are a desolation, a dry land, and a wilderness, a land in which no man dwelleth, neither doth [any] son of man pass by it.
44 Ary Bela dia hampijaliko any Babylona, ka hasaiko haloany izay nateliny; Ary ny firenena tsy hitanjozotra hankany aminy intsony; Ny mandan’ i Babylona dia hirodana.
And I will punish Bel in Babylon, and I will bring forth out of his mouth that which he hath swallowed: and the nations shall not flow together any more to him: even the wall of Babylon shall fall.
45 Mivoaha avy ao afovoany ianareo, ry oloko, ary samia mamonjy ny ainareo avy ianareo, mba tsy ho azon’ ny firehetan’ ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah.
My people, depart from the midst of her, and deliver ye every man his soul from the fierce anger of the LORD.
46 Ary fandrao ketraka ny fonareo, ka matahotra ianareo noho ny tsaho miely amin’ ny tany; Fa amin’ ny iray taona dia hisy tsaho, ary amin’ ny taona manaraka indray dia mbola hisy tsaho ihany koa sy loza amin’ ny tany, dia mpanapaka mamely mpanapaka.
And lest your heart should faint, and ye should fear for the rumor that shall be heard in the land; a rumor shall both come [one] year, and after that in [another] year [shall come] a rumor, and violence in the land, ruler against ruler.
47 koa, indro, avy ny andro hamaliako ny sarin-javatr’ i Babylona; Ho menatra ny taniny rehetra; Ary ny fatiny rehetra dia hiampatrampatra eo aminy.
Therefore behold, the days come, that I will do judgment upon the graven images of Babylon: and her whole land shall be confounded, and all her slain shall fall in the midst of her.
48 Ny lanitra sy ny tany sy izay rehetra ao aminy dia hihoby noho ny amin’ i Babylona, satria tonga ao aminy avy any avaratra ireo mpandringana, hoy Jehovah.
Then the heaven and the earth, and all that [is] in them, shall sing for Babylon: for the spoilers shall come to her from the north, saith the LORD.
49 Toy ny nampiampatramparan’ i Babylona ny faty tamin’ ny Isiraely, dia ho toy izany no hiampatramparan’ ny faty amin’ ny tany rehetra noho ny amin’ i Babylona.
As Babylon [hath caused] the slain of Israel to fall, so at Babylon shall fall the slain of all the earth.
50 Hianareo izay tsy voan’ ny sabatra, mialà, fa aza mijanona; Tsarovy Jehovah, raha mbola lavitra ianareo. Ary aoka ho mby an-tsainareo Jerosalema.
Ye that have escaped the sword, go away, stand not still: remember the LORD afar off, and let Jerusalem come into your mind.
51 Menatra izahay, fa efa nandre latsa; Manarona ny atrehinay ny henatra; Fa ny hafa firenena no niditra teo amin’ ny fitoerana masìna amin’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah.
We are confounded, because we have heard reproach: shame hath covered our faces: for strangers are come into the sanctuaries of the LORD'S house.
52 Koa, indro, avy ny andro, hoy Jehovah, izay hamaliako ny sarin-javatra voasokitra ao koa; Ary hitoloko eran’ ny taniny rehetra ny voatrobaka.
Wherefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will do judgment upon her graven images: and through all her land the wounded shall groan.
53 Na dia miakatra any an-danitra aza Babylona, ary na dia ataony mafy aza ny fitoerana avo izay heriny, dia avy amiko no hihavian’ ny mpandringana azy, hoy Jehovah;
Though Babylon should mount up to heaven, and though she should fortify the hight of her strength, [yet] from me shall spoilers come to her, saith the LORD.
54 Injany! misy feo mitaraina avy any Babylona sy fandringanana be avy any amin’ ny tanin’ ny Kaldeana!
A sound of a cry [cometh] from Babylon, and great destruction from the land of the Chaldeans:
55 Fa Jehovah no mandrava an’ i Babylona sy mampitsahatra ny fihorakorahana eo aminy, ary hirohondrohona toy ny rano be ny onjany, eny, re tokoa ny feon’ ny firohondrohony.
Because the LORD hath laid waste Babylon, and destroyed out of her the great voice; when her waves roar like great waters, a noise of their voice is uttered:
56 Fa tonga ao aminy, dia ao Babylona, ny mpandringana, ary voasambotra ny lehilahy maheriny; Tapatapaka avokoa ny tsipìkany Satria Jehovah dia Andriamanitry ny famaliana ka hamaly tokoa.
Because the spoiler is come upon her, [even] upon Babylon, and her mighty men are taken, every one of their bows is broken: for the Lord GOD of recompenses shall surely requite.
57 Ary hataoko mamo ny mpanapaka azy sy ny olon-kendriny, ny governorany sy ny lefiny ary ny olo-maheriny; Ary hatory amin’ ny torimaso mandrakizay izy ka tsy hifoha intsony, hoy ny Mpanjaka, Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, no anarany.
And I will make drunk her princes, and her wise [men], her captains, and her rulers, and her mighty men: and they shall sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake, saith the king, whose name [is] the LORD of hosts.
58 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro: Ny manda malalaka any Babylona dia horavana tokoa hatramin’ ny fanorenany, ary ny vavahadiny avo hodorana amin’ ny afo. Ka dia ho nisasatra foana ny firenena, ary ny olona ho nisasatra ho an’ ny afo ka ho reraka.
Thus saith the LORD of hosts; The broad walls of Babylon shall be utterly broken, and her high gates shall be burned with fire; and the people shall labor in vain, and the people in the fire, and they shall be weary.
59 Ny teny izay nandidian’ i Jeremia mpaminany an’ i Seraia, zanak’ i Neria, zanak’ i Mahaseia, fony izy nandeha niaraka tamin’ i Zedekia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, ho any Babylona tamin’ ny taona fahefatra nanjakany. Fa Seraia no lehiben’ ny mpanorin-dasy.
The word which Jeremiah the prophet commanded Seraiah the son of Neriah, the son of Maaseiah, when he went with Zedekiah the king of Judah into Babylon in the fourth year of his reign. And [this] Seraiah [was] a quiet prince.
60 Ary nosoratan’ i Jeremia teo amin’ ny boky iray ny loza rehetra izay hanjo an’ i Babylona, dia ireo teny rehetra ireo, izay voasoratra ny amin’ i Babylona.
So Jeremiah wrote in a book all the evil that should come upon Babylon, [even] all these words that are written against Babylon.
61 Ary hoy Jeremia tamin’ i Seraia: Rehefa tonga any Babylona ianao, dia tandremo tsara mba hovakinao ireo teny rehetra ireo,
And Jeremiah said to Seraiah, When thou shalt come to Babylon, and shalt see, and shalt read all these words;
62 ka manaova hoe: Jehovah ô, Hianao no niteny hamely ity tany ity handringana azy, ka tsy hisy hitoetra eto, na olona na biby, fa ho tany lao mandrakizay izy.
Then shalt thou say, O LORD, thou hast spoken against this place, to cut it off, that none shall remain in it, neither man nor beast, but that it shall be desolate for ever.
63 Ary rehefa tapitra ny famakianao ity boky ity, dia asio vato afehy aminy, ary atsipazo ao Eofrata izy.
And it shall be, when thou hast made an end of reading this book, [that] thou shalt bind a stone to it, and cast it into the midst of Euphrates:
64 ka ataovy hoe: Toy izao no hilentehan’ i Babylona ka tsy hifongarany intsony noho ny loza hataoko mihatra aminy, ka dia ho reraka izy. Hatreto no tenin’ i Jeremia.
And thou shalt say, Thus shall Babylon sink, and shall not rise from the evil that I will bring upon her: and they shall be weary. Thus far [are] the words of Jeremiah.
