< Jeremia 17 >

1 Fa sinokitse am-panokiram-by ty hakeo’ Iehodà, safira masioñe ty loha’e, pinatetse an-takelan’arofo’ iareo, naho ami’ty tsifan-kitreli’ iareo eo.
Cursed is the man who trusts in man, and will lean his arm of flesh upon him, while his heart departs from the Lord.
2 Ie tiahi’iereo o ana’ iareoo, le ho tiahi’iareo ka ty kitreli’ iareo naho o Asere’ iareo añ’ila’ ze hatae antsetra an-kaboañe eio.
3 O ry vohiko an-kivoke ey, hatoloko ho fikopake o fanaña’oo naho ze fonga vara’o, rekets’ o toem-pisoroña’o amo haboañe manitsike ty tane’oo.
4 Le ihe, toe o vata’oo, ro hapitsok’ amy lova natoloko azoy; vaho hampitoroñeko o rafelahi’o an-tane tsy fohi’oo; amy te namiaña’o afo hilebaleba nainai’e ty an-doak’oroko ao,
5 Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà: Fatse t’indaty miato ama’ ondaty, naho manao ty nofotse ho haozara’e, vaho misitak’ am’ Iehovà ty arofo’e.
6 Ho hambañe ami’ty rongoñe an-dratraratra añe, tsy ho oni’e ty fitotsaha’ ty soa; amy t’ie himoneñe am-paimpaiñe an-diolio añe, an-tane sira tsy amam-pimoneñe.
And he shall be as the wild tamarisk in the desert: he shall not see when good comes; but he shall dwell in barren [places], and in the wilderness, in a salt land which is not inhabited.
7 Haha t’indaty miato am’Iehovà; naho Iehovà ro fiantofa’e.
But blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord shall be.
8 Hanahake ty hatae namboleñe añ’olon-drano eo re, mamelatse o vaha’eo marine rano ao, ie tsy ho tendre-tariñandroke, fa handrevake o rave’eo; naho tsy ho mahimahin-dre an-taom-paosa, vaho le lia’e tsy hijihetse o voa’eo.
And he shall be as a thriving tree by the waters, and he shall cast forth his root toward a moist place: he shall not fear when heat comes, and there shall be upon him shady branches: he shall not fear in a year of drought, and he shall not fail to bear fruit.
9 Milikoatse ze he’e ty famañahia’ o arofoo, losotse ty hasilo’e— ia ty mahafohiñe aze?
The heart is deep beyond all things, and it is the man, and who can know him?
10 Izaho Iehovà ty mpitsikarak’ arofo, mpitsò-troke, mpanambe ondatio mira amo sata’eo, tsahatse ty havokara’ o fitoloña’eo.
I the Lord try the hearts, and prove the reins, to give to every one according to his ways, and according to the fruits of his devices.
11 Hambañe amo hatrakatrake mamana anake tsy natera’eo, ty manontom-bara tsy an-kahiti’e; hieng’ aze irezay añivo’ o andro’eo, ie ho dagola ampara’e.
The partridge utters her voice, she gathers [eggs] which she did not lay; [so is a man] gaining his wealth unjustly; in the midst of his days [his riches] shall leave him, and at his latter end he will be a fool.
12 Ry fiambesan-engeñe nonjoneñe tam-baloha’e añe, ry toe’ay miavakeo,
An exalted throne of glory is our sanctuary.
13 ry fitamà’ Israeleo, ry Iehovà! Hene ho salatse ze mieng’Azo; ho sokireñe an-tane eo ze mivik’ ama’o, amy te naforintse’ iareo t’Iehovà, loharano veloñey.
O Lord, the hope of Israel, let all that have left thee be ashamed, let them that have revolted be written on the earth, because they have forsaken the fountain of life, the Lord.
14 Afaho ry Iehovà le ho jangan-draho; rombaho vaho ho rombake; amy te Ihe ro fandrengeako.
Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved; for thou art my boast.
15 Inao ty fatao’ iareo amako: Aia ty tsara’ Iehovà, ampombao mb’etoa henaneo.
Behold, they say to me, Where is the word of the Lord? let it come.
16 Fa naho izaho, tsy nalisa hisitake ami’ty maha-piarak’ahy ama’o; tsy nirieko ka ty andron-kankàñe; arofoana’o te nalange añatrefa’o eo ze niakatse an-tsoñiko.
But I have not been weary of following thee, nor have I desired the day of man; thou knowest; the [words] that proceed out of my lips are before thy face.
17 Ko mamangebahebak’ ahy, amy te Ihe ro fipalirako añ’andron-kankàñe.
Be not to me a stranger, [but] spare me in the evil day.
18 Ee te ho salareñe o mampisoañe ahy, fe ko ampisalaren-draho; ee te hembereñe iereo, fe ko ampisosoren-draho, aseseo am’iereo ty andron-kekoheko, vaho rotsaho an-drotsake roe.
Let them that persecute me be ashamed, but let me not be ashamed: let them be alarmed, but let me not be alarmed: bring upon them the evil day, crush them with double destruction.
19 Hoe t’Iehovà amako: Akia, mijohaña an-dalambei’ o ana’ ondatio, am-piziliha’ o mpanjaka’ Iehodào naho am-piengà’ iareo eo, naho amo lalambei’ Ierosalaimeo;
Thus saith the Lord; Go and stand in the gates of the children of thy people, by which the kings of Juda enter, and by which they go out, and in all the gates of Jerusalem:
20 vaho isaontsio ty hoe: Janjiño ty tsara’ Iehovà ry mpanjaka’ Iehodà, naho ry Iehodà iaby, naho ry hene mpimone’ Ierosalaimeo, ze fonga mimoak’ an-dalam-bey retoañe:
and thou shalt say to them, Hear the word of the Lord, ye kings of Juda, and all Judea, and all Jerusalem, [all] who go in at these gates:
21 Hoe t’Iehovà: Mitaoa! ko minday entañe ami’ty andro Sabotse, naho ko mampizilike ndra inoñ’inoñe amo lalambei’ Ierosalaimeo;
thus saith the Lord; Take heed to your souls, and take up no burdens on the sabbath-day, and go not forth [through] the gates of Jerusalem;
22 Ko añakaran-kilankañe ty anjomba’o ami’ty andro Sabata, naho ko mitolon-draha, vaho avaho ty andro Sabotse, amy nandiliako aman-droae’areoy;
and carry forth no burdens out of your houses on the sabbath-day, and ye shall do no work: sanctify the sabbath-day, as I commanded your fathers.
23 Ie tsy nañaoñe, tsy nanokilan-dravembia, te mone nampigam-pititia, tsy hijanjiñe tsy handrambe fanoroañe.
But they hearkened not, and inclined not their ear, but stiffened their neck more than their fathers [did], so as not to hear me, and not to receive correction.
24 Ho tondroke ka te, ie mahafitsendreñe ahy, hoe t’Iehovà, te tsy anjilihañ’ entañe amo lalam-bei’ ty rova toio ami’ty andro Sabotse, fe hambenañe ho masiñe ty andro Sabotse, tsy hitoloñañe;
And it shall come to pass, if ye will hearken to me, saith the Lord, to carry in no burdens through the gates of this city on the sabbath-day, and to sanctify the sabbath-day, so as to do no work [upon it],
25 Ie amy zay himoaham-panjaka naho roandriañe o lalam-bei’ ty rova toio hiambesatse amy fiambesa’ i Davidey, miningitse sarete naho soavala, ie naho o roandria’eo, naho ondati’ Iehodao, naho o mpimone’ Ierosalaimeo; vaho nainai’e ho fimoneñañe ty rova toy.
that there shall enter through the gates of this city kings and princes sitting on the throne of David, and riding on their chariots and horses, they, and their princes, the men of Juda, and the dwellers in Jerusalem: and this city shall be inhabited for ever.
26 Hivovotse boak’amo rova’ Iehodào, naho hirik’ am-paripari’ Ierosalaime, naho boak’an-tane’ i Beniamine, naho boak’an-tane petrake, naho boak’am-bohibohitse, vaho boak’ atimo añe, songa minday enga ho lorañe, naho soroñe naho enga mahakama, naho tsotse vaho engam-pañandriañañe mb’añ’anjomba’ Iehovà mb’eo.
And [men] shall come out of the cities of Juda, and from round about Jerusalem, and out of the land of Benjamin, and out of the plain country, and from the hill country, and from the south [country], bringing whole-burnt-offerings, and sacrifices, and incense, and manna, and frankincense, bringing praise to the house of the Lord.
27 Fe naho mañamatsamatsa ahy nahareo tsy hampiavake o andro Sabatao, ami’ty tsy fimoahañe amo lalam-bei’ Ierosalaimeo reke-kilankañe ami’ty andro Sabotse; le hamiañako afo o lalam-beio, ze hamorototo o anjomba’ Ierosalaimeo, vaho tsy hakipeke.
But it shall come to pass, if ye will not hearken to me to sanctify the sabbath-day, to bear no burdens, nor go in [with them by] the gates of Jerusalem on the sabbath-day; then will I kindle a fire in the gates thereof, and it shall devour the streets of Jerusalem, and shall not be quenched.
