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.
Then Yahweh said to me, “Though Moses and Samuel stood before me, yet my mind would not turn toward this people. Cast them out of my sight, and let them 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.
It will happen when they ask you, ‘Where shall we go out?’ then you shall tell them, ‘Yahweh says: “Such as are for death, to death; such as are for the sword, to the sword; such as are for the famine, to the famine; and such as 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.
“I will appoint over them four kinds,” says Yahweh: “the sword to kill, the dogs to tear, the birds of the sky, and the animals of the earth, to devour and to destroy.
4 Le hanoeko fangebahebahañe amy ze fifehea’ ty tane toio, ty amy Menasè, ana’ Iekizkia mpanjaka’ Iehodà, o nanoe’e e Ierosalaimeo.
I will cause them to be tossed back and forth among all the kingdoms of the earth, because of Manasseh, the 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 will have pity on you, Jerusalem? Who will mourn you? Who will come 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 rejected me,” says Yahweh. “You have gone backward. Therefore I have stretched out my hand against you and destroyed you. I am weary of showing compassion.
7 Itsongako an-tsikelo an-dalambei’ i taney; ampandalàko anake, vaho ho mongoreko ondatikoo amy te tsy ambohoa’e o sata’eo.
I have winnowed them with a fan in the gates of the land. I have bereaved them of children. I have destroyed my people. They didn’t return 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.
Their widows are increased more than the sand of the seas. I have brought on them against the mother of the young men a destroyer at noonday. I have caused anguish and terrors 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.
She who has borne seven languishes. She has given up the spirit. Her sun has gone down while it was yet day. She has been disappointed and confounded. I will deliver their residue to the sword before their enemies,” says Yahweh.
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 is me, my mother, that you have borne me, a man of strife, and a man of contention to the whole earth! I have not lent, neither have men lent to me; yet every one of them curses me.
11 Hoe t’Iehovà: havotsoko ho an-kasoa irehe; hampihalalieko ama’o ty rafelahy an-tsan-kankàñe naho añ’andron-kasotriañe.
Yahweh said, “Most certainly I will strengthen you for good. Most certainly I will cause the enemy to make supplication to you in the time of evil and in the time of affliction.
12 Mahafolake ty viñe boak’ avaratse hao ty viñe naho ty torisìke?
Can one break iron, even iron from the north, 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 will give your substance and your treasures for a plunder without price, and that for all your sins, even 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.
I will make them to pass with your enemies into a land which you don’t know; for a fire is kindled in my anger, which will burn on 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.
Yahweh, you know. Remember me, visit me, and avenge me of my persecutors. You are patient, so don’t take me away. Know that for your sake I have suffered reproach.
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 were found, and I ate them. Your words were to me a joy and the rejoicing of my heart, for I am called by your name, Yahweh, God of Armies.
17 Tsy nitobohako i fivorim-pitohàkey, tsy nirañaraña an-kobaiñe, fa mitobok’ am-bangiñe ao ty amy fità’oy; ie nilifore’o hatorifihañe.
I didn’t sit in the assembly of those who make merry and rejoice. I sat alone because of your hand, 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 is my pain perpetual, and my wound incurable, which refuses to be healed? Will you indeed be to me as a deceitful brook, like waters that fail?
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 Yahweh says, “If you return, then I will bring you again, that you may stand before me; and if you take out the precious from the vile, you will be as my mouth. They will return to you, but you will 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.
I will make you to this people a fortified bronze wall. They will fight against you, but they will not prevail against you; for I am with you to save you and to deliver you,” says Yahweh.
21 Havotsoko am-pità’ o lo-tserekeo, naho ho jebañeko an-dela-pità’ ty mampangebahebake.
“I will deliver you out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeem you out of the hand of the terrible.”
