Jeremia 13
1 Hoe t’Iehovà amako: Akia, mikaloa sokotry lande, le sadiaño, vaho ko alo’o an-drano.
Thus says YHWH to me, "Go, and buy yourself a linen belt, and put it on your waist, and do not put it in water."
2 Aa le nivily sokotry iraho ty amy tsara’ Iehovày, vaho nadiako.
So I bought a belt according to the word of YHWH, and put it on my waist.
3 Nomb’ amako fañindroe’e ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
The word of YHWH came to me the second time, saying,
4 Endeso i sokotry vinili’oy, o an-toha’oo, le miongaha, akia mb’e Perate añe vaho akafiro an-tseran-damilamy ao.
"Take the belt that you have bought, which is on your waist, and arise, go to the Perath, and hide it there in a cleft of the rock."
5 Aa le nimb’ eo iraho nañetak’ aze e Perate ao amy nandilia’ Iehovày.
So I went, and hid it by the Perath, as YHWH commanded me.
6 Ie añe ty andro maro, le hoe t’Iehovà amako, Miongaha, akia mb’e Perate mb’eo vaho rambeso i sokotry nililiako haetak’aoy.
It happened after many days, that YHWH said to me, "Arise, go to the Perath, and take the belt from there, which I commanded you to hide there."
7 Aa le nimb’e Perate mb’eo iraho vaho hinaliko naho rinambeko amy nañetahakoy i sokotriy; naheoko t’ie nianto, tsy vara ka.
Then I went to the Perath, and dug, and took the belt from the place where I had hidden it; and look, the belt was marred, it was profitable for nothing.
8 Le niheo amako ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
Then the word of YHWH came to me, saying,
9 Hoe t’Iehovà: Hambañe amy zay ty hamongorako ty fiebora’ Iehodà, naho ty firengevoha’ Ierosalaime,
"Thus says YHWH, 'In this way I will mar the pride of Judah, and the great pride of Jerusalem.
10 ondaty lo-tsereke retoañe, o mifoneñe tsy hijanjiñe o volakoo, o manjotik’ ami’ty fanjeharan’arofo’eo, naho mañorike ndrahare ila’e hitoroña’e naho hitalahoa’e; aa le hifandrae ami’ty sokotry toy iereo, ie tsy vente’e.
This evil people, who refuse to hear my words, who walk in the stubbornness of their heart, and are gone after other gods to serve them, and to worship them, shall even be as this belt, which is profitable for nothing.
11 Fa hambañe ami’ty fidiañañe ty sokotry an-toha’ondaty, ty nampidiañako amako ty anjomba’ Israele iaby, naho ze hene anjomba’ Iehodà, hoe t’Iehovà, soa te ho amako iereo, h’ondaty naho tahinañe, naho engeñe, vaho volonahetse; f’ie mihiritsiritse avao.
For as the belt clings to the waist of a man, so have I caused to cling to me the whole house of Israel and the whole house of Judah,' says YHWH; 'that they might be my people, for a name, for praise, and for glory. But they would not listen.
12 Atovoño am’ iereo o tsara zao: Hoe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele: Songa ho peañen-divay o zonjoñeo. Le ie manao ty hoe iereo: Aa tsy apota’ay hao te sindre hatsafen-divay o zonjoñeo?
Therefore you shall speak to them this word: 'Thus says YHWH, the God of Israel, "Every jar shall be filled with wine."' And if they shall say to you, 'Do we not certainly know that every jar shall be filled with wine?'
13 Le hanoa’o ty hoe: Hoe t’Iehovà: Ingo ho liporeko hamamoañe ze hene mpimone’ ty tane toy: o mpanjaka miambesatse am-piambesa’ i Davideo, naho o mpisoroñeo, naho o mpitokio, vaho o mpimone’ Israele iabio.
Then you shall tell them, 'Thus says YHWH, "Look, I will fill all the inhabitants of this land, even the kings who sit on David's throne, and the priests, and the prophets, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, with drunkenness.
14 Ho ifampidosieko iereo, o roaeo amo ana’eo, hoe’ t’Iehovà; tsy hiheveako, tsy ho tretrezeko, tsy ho ferenaiñeko; te mone ho rotsaheko.
I will dash them one against another, even the fathers and the sons together, says YHWH. I will not pity, nor spare, nor have compassion, that I should not destroy them."'"
15 Mijanjiña naho manolora ravembia, ko mibohaboha; fa nitsara t’Iehovà.
"Hear, and give ear; do not be proud; for YHWH has spoken.
16 Toloro engeñe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo, aolo’ ty firoña’e ho maieñe, aolo te mitsikapy an-tongoa-vohitse eo o fandia’ areoo, le ie mipay hazavàñe nahareo ro hafote’e ho talinjon-kavilasy, ie hampimoromoroñe’e.
Give glory to YHWH your God, before he causes darkness, and before your feet stumble on the dark mountains, and, while you look for light, he turns it into the shadow of death, and makes it gross darkness.
17 Fe naho tsy mañaoñe nahareo, le hiharovetse añ’etake ty troko ty amy firengevohañe zay; higanaganaham-pangololoihañe o masokoo, vaho hikararake o rano-masokoo, amy te nasese an-drohy añe i lia-rai’ Iehovày.
But if you will not hear it, my soul shall weep in secret for your pride; and my eye shall weep bitterly, and run down with tears, because YHWH's flock is taken captive."
18 Taroño amy mpanjakay naho amy mpanjaka-ampelay ty hoe: Mitoboha ambane, fa nazetse o sabakan’enge’ areo fanjakao.
"Say to the king and to the queen mother, 'Take a lowly seat, for your glorious crowns have come down from your heads.
19 Migabeñe o rova atimoo, vaho tsy eo ty hanokake iareo; songa nasese am-pandrohizañe t’Iehodà; sindre nendeseñ’ añe an-drohy.
The cities toward the Negev are shut, and there is no one to open them: Judah is carried away into exile, all of it; it is wholly carried away into exile.'"
20 Ampiandrao o fihaino’oo, isaho o mb’etoy boak’ avaratse eio; aia i lia-raike natolots’ azoy, i lia-rai’o fanjakay?
"Lift up your eyes, and see those who come from the north: where is the flock that was given you, your beautiful flock?
21 Ino ty hatao’o naho tendre’e ho ambone’ lohà’o o nirañe’o taoloo; o naò’oo? Tsy hamihiñe azo hao ty fikoretañe hoe fitsongoan’ ampela?
What will you say, when he shall set over you as head those whom you have yourself taught to be friends to you? Shall not sorrows take hold of you, as of a woman in travail?
22 Aa naho atao’o an-tro’o ao ty hoe: Ino ty nifetsaha’ iretoañe amako? Ty habei’ hakeo’o ty nañaloañe i siki’oy, naho ty maha tsi-an-kana o tomi’oo.
If you say in your heart, 'Why are these things come on me?' for the greatness of your iniquity are your skirts uncovered, and your heels suffer violence.
23 Mahay mañova ty holi’e hao ty nte-Kose, ndra i hapepoa’ey ty fosa? Aa naho mete izay, le ho lefe’areo mpanao ratio ka ty hanao soa.
Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the leopard his spots? Then may you also do good, who are accustomed to do evil.
24 Aa le hampiboeleko iereo manahake ty karafo ampihelaña’ i tion-dratraratray.
'therefore I will scatter them, as the stubble that passes away, by the wind of the wilderness.
25 Toe toli’o toy, ty nañaranako ama’o, hoe t’Iehovà; amy te nihaliñe’o iraho, vaho niatoa’o ty remborake.
This is your lot, the portion measured to you from me,' says YHWH; 'because you have forgotten me, and trusted in falsehood.
26 Aa le hatsingako ambone’ lahara’o eo o siki’oo hampiboake ty fimeñara’o.
therefore I will also uncover your skirts on your face, and your shame shall appear.
27 Fa nitreako o hativa’oo: ty fañarapiloa’o, ty fitrem-pitsinginiora’o, ty haleoran-katsimirira’o, amo tamboho an-kivoke eio, nitreako o hativà’oo. Hankàñe ama’o, ry Ierosalaime, ampara’ te ombia t’ie mbe haleotse?
I have seen your abominations, even your adulteries, and your neighing, the lewdness of your prostitution, on the hills in the field. Woe to you, Jerusalem. You will not be made clean; how long shall it yet be?'"
