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.
The sin of Judah is written with a pen of iron, and with the point of a diamond: it is graven upon the tablet of their heart, and upon the horns of your altars;
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.
While their children remember their altars and their groves by the green trees upon the high hills.
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.
O my mountain in the field, I will give thy substance and all thy treasures to the spoil, and thy high places for sin, throughout all thy borders.
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,
And thou, even thyself, shall discontinue from thy heritage that I gave thee; and I will cause thee to serve thy enemies in the land which thou knowest not: for ye have kindled a fire in my anger, which shall burn for ever.
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.
Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.
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.
For he shall be like the heath in the desert, and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land and not inhabited.
7 Haha t’indaty miato am’Iehovà; naho Iehovà ro fiantofa’e.
Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is.
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.
For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be anxious in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.
9 Milikoatse ze he’e ty famañahia’ o arofoo, losotse ty hasilo’e— ia ty mahafohiñe aze?
The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?
10 Izaho Iehovà ty mpitsikarak’ arofo, mpitsò-troke, mpanambe ondatio mira amo sata’eo, tsahatse ty havokara’ o fitoloña’eo.
I the LORD search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.
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.
As the partridge sitteth on eggs, and hatcheth them not; so he that getteth riches, and not by right, shall leave them in the midst of his days, and at his end shall be a fool.
12 Ry fiambesan-engeñe nonjoneñe tam-baloha’e añe, ry toe’ay miavakeo,
A glorious high throne from the beginning is the place of 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, all that forsake thee shall be ashamed, and they that depart from me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters.
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 praise.
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 now.
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.
As for me, I have not hastened from being a shepherd to follow thee: neither have I desired the woeful day; thou knowest: that which was uttered by my lips was right before thee.
17 Ko mamangebahebak’ ahy, amy te Ihe ro fipalirako añ’andron-kankàñe.
Be not a terror to me: thou art my hope in the day of evil.
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 be confounded that persecute me, but let not me be confounded: let them be dismayed, but let not me be dismayed: bring upon them the day of evil, and destroy 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 said the LORD to me; Go and stand in the gate of the children of the people, by which the kings of Judah come in, 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 say to them, Hear ye the word of the LORD, ye kings of Judah, and all Judah, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, that enter by 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 yourselves, and bear no burden on the sabbath day, nor bring it in by 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;
Neither carry forth a burden out of your houses on the sabbath day, neither do ye any work, but hallow ye 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 obeyed not, neither inclined their ear, but made their neck stiff, that they might not hear, nor receive instruction.
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 diligently hearken to me, saith the LORD, to bring in no burden through the gates of this city on the sabbath day, but hallow the sabbath day, to do no work in 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.
Then shall there enter into the gates of this city kings and princes sitting upon the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, they, and their princes, the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem: and this city shall remain 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 they shall come from the cities of Judah, and from the places about Jerusalem, and from the land of Benjamin, and from the plain, and from the mountains, and from the south, bringing burnt offerings, and sacrifices, and meat offerings, and incense, and bringing sacrifices of 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 if ye will not hearken to me to hallow the sabbath day, and not to bear a burden, even entering at the gates of Jerusalem on the sabbath day; then will I kindle a fire in its gates, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem, and it shall not be quenched.
