< Jeremia 15 >

1 Le hoe t’Iehovà amako: Ndra te nijohañe añatrefako eo t’i Mosè naho i Samoele, tsy ho nitolike mb’am’ondaty retoa ty troko soiho añe iereo tsy ho treako, aseseo añe.
And YHWH says to me: “Though Moses and Samuel should stand before Me, My soul is not toward this people, Send from before My face, and they go out.
2 Ie amy zao, naho isaontsia’ iareo, ty hoe: Homb’aia zahay? le hanoa’o ty hoe: Hoe t’Iehovà: O havetrakeo mb’am-pivetrahañe, O ho amy fibaraio, mb’amy fibaray, O hampisalikoeñeo le mb’amy mosarey, O ho an-drohio, le mb’am-pandrohizañ’ añe.
And it has come to pass, when they say to you, To where do we go out? That you have said to them, Thus said YHWH: Those who [are] for death—to death, And those who are for the sword—to the sword, And those who are for famine—to famine, And those who are for captivity—to captivity.
3 Efatse ty hafantoko am’ iareo: hoe t’Iehovà hanjevoñe ty fibara naho hirepake ty amboa naho hampibotseke naho hamongotse o voron-dikerañeo naho o bibi’ ty tane toio.
And I have appointed four kinds over them,” A declaration of YHWH, “The sword to slay, and the dogs to drag, And the bird of the heavens, And the beast of the earth, to consume and to devour.
4 Le hanoeko fangebahebahañe amy ze fifehea’ ty tane toio, ty amy Menasè, ana’ Iekizkia mpanjaka’ Iehodà, o nanoe’e e Ierosalaimeo.
And I have given them for a trembling To all kingdoms of the earth, Because of Manasseh son of Hezekiah king of Judah, For that which he did in Jerusalem.
5 Ia ty hiferenaiñ’ azo ry Ierosalaime? Ia ty handal’ azo? Ia ty hivike hañontane ty fanintsiña’o?
For who has pity on you, O Jerusalem? And who bemoans for you? And who turns aside to ask of your welfare?
6 Fa nifarie’o iraho, hoe t’Iehovà, toe nidisa-voly; izay ty añitiako ama’o ty tañako, handrotsahako; mahamokotse ahy ty miheve.
You have left Me,” A declaration of YHWH, “You go backward, And I stretch out My hand against you, And I destroy you, I have been weary of relenting,
7 Itsongako an-tsikelo an-dalambei’ i taney; ampandalàko anake, vaho ho mongoreko ondatikoo amy te tsy ambohoa’e o sata’eo.
And I scatter them with a fan, In the gates of the land, I have bereaved [them], I have destroyed My people, They did not turn back from their ways.
8 Ho maro te amo fasen-driakeo o ramavoi’iareoo aoloko eo; afetsako am’iereo, ami’ty renen’ ajalahy ty mpampianto an-tsipinde mena; hivovò ama’e ty fihepakepahañe naho ty firevendreveñañe.
Its widows have been more to Me than the sand of the seas, I brought on them—against the mother—A young man—a spoiler—at noon. I caused wrath and trouble to fall on her suddenly.
9 Miforejeje ty nisamake fito; midegañe ty fiai’e; fa nimotake i andro’ey t’ie mb’e nandia-loha, meñatse re naho salatse; vaho haseseko ami’ty fibara ty sehanga’e añatrefa’ o rafelahi’ iareoo, hoe t’Iehovà.
The bearer of seven has languished, She has breathed out her spirit, Her sun has gone in while yet day, It has been ashamed and confounded, And I give up their remnant to the sword before their enemies,” A declaration of YHWH.
10 Feh’ohatse amako ry reneko, te nahatoly ahy h’ondaty trabiheñe, mpampitrobo i tane iabiy! tsy nampisongo iraho, tsy misongo; fe fonga mamàtse ahy.
Woe to me, my mother, For you have borne me, A man of strife and a man of contention to all the land, I have not lent on usury, Nor have they lent on usury to me—All of them are reviling me.
11 Hoe t’Iehovà: havotsoko ho an-kasoa irehe; hampihalalieko ama’o ty rafelahy an-tsan-kankàñe naho añ’andron-kasotriañe.
YHWH said, “Did I not direct you for good? Did I not intercede for you in a time of evil, And in a time of adversity, with the enemy?
12 Mahafolake ty viñe boak’ avaratse hao ty viñe naho ty torisìke?
Does one break iron, Northern iron and bronze?
13 Hatoloko ho fikopahañe tsy amam-bili’e ty vara naho fanaña’o, pak’ añ’efe’o iaby ty amo hene’ tahi’oo.
I give your strength and your treasures for a prey—not for price, Even for all your sins, and in all your borders.
14 Le hampaneseko o rafelahi’oo mb’ an-tane tsy fohi’o; fa niviañeñe an-doak-oroko ao ty afo hisolebats’ ama’o.
And I have caused your enemies To pass over into the land [that] You have not known, For a fire has been kindled in My anger, It burns against you.”
15 Ihe ry Iehovà ro maharofoanañe, tiahio iraho vaho aereñereo, vaho valeo o mpanao sarerak’ ahio; ko asese’o mb’eo ty amy fiferenaiña’oy; mahaoniña te Ihe ro nahafeahako inje.
You, You have known, O YHWH, Remember me, and inspect me, And take vengeance for me of my pursuers, In Your long-suffering do not take me away, Know [that] I have borne reproach for You.
16 Nitendreke o tsara’oo vaho nihaneko; le nahafale ahiko toe naharebeke ty troko o tsara’oo; amy te nitokaveñe ami’ty tahina’o, ry Iehovà Andrianañahare’ i màroy.
Your words have been found, and I eat them, And Your word is to me for a joy, And for the rejoicing of my heart, For Your Name is called on me, O YHWH, God of Hosts.
17 Tsy nitobohako i fivorim-pitohàkey, tsy nirañaraña an-kobaiñe, fa mitobok’ am-bangiñe ao ty amy fità’oy; ie nilifore’o hatorifihañe.
I have not sat in an assembly of deriders, Nor do I exult, because of your hand—I have sat alone, For You have filled me [with] indignation.
18 Akore te silofeñe nainai’e o rarekoo, ie tsy mitsaitsaike o ferekoo, tsy mete ho melañe? Hanao torahañe mamitak’ amako hao irehe, hoe rano misike?
Why has my pain been continuous? And my wound incurable? It has refused to be healed, You are surely as a failing stream to me, Waters [that are] not steadfast.
19 Aa le hoe t’Iehovà: Naho himpoly irehe, le ampibaliheko indraike, hijohaña’o añatrefako eo; aa naho akare’o ami’ty kafoake ty vente’e, le ho sorotàko; adono hitoliha’ iareo, fa ko itoliha’o.
Therefore, thus said YHWH: “If you turn back, then I bring you back, You stand before Me, And if you bring out the precious from the vile, You are as My mouth! They return to you, And you do not return to them.
20 Le hanoeko kijoly torisìke am’ondaty retoa; hialy ama’o iereo, fa tsy hahagioke, Ho ama’o iraho handrombak’ azo naho hañaha azo, hoe t’Iehovà.
And I have made you to this people For a wall—bronze—fortified, And they have fought against you, And they do not prevail against you, For I [am] with you to save you, And to deliver you,” A declaration of YHWH,
21 Havotsoko am-pità’ o lo-tserekeo, naho ho jebañeko an-dela-pità’ ty mampangebahebake.
“And I have delivered you from the hand of evildoers, And I have ransomed you From the hand of the terrible!”
