< Jeremia 2 >
1 Le niheo amako ty tsara’ Iehovà, nanao ty hoe:
Moreover, the woorde of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
2 Akia mikoiha an-dravembia’ Ierosalaime ao ty hoe: Hoe t’Iehovà: tiahiko ty hatea’ i hatora’oy, ty fikokoa’o, ihe nienga-vao; i fireketa’o amako an-dratraratray an-tane mboe tsy nitongisañe añe.
Goe, and crie in the eares of Ierusalem, saying, Thus sayeth the Lord, I remember thee, with the kindenes of thy youth and the loue of thy marriage, when thou wentest after me in the wildernes in a lande that was not sowen.
3 Niavake am’ Iehovà t’Israele, ty lohavoan-kavokara’e; hanan-kakeo ze mampibotseke ama’e, hankàñe ty hizò iareo, hoe t’Iehovà.
Israel was as a thing halowed vnto the Lord, and his first fruits: all they that eat it, shall offend: euil shall come vpon them, saith the Lord.
4 Mijanjiña ty tsara’ Iehovà, ry anjomba’ Iakobe, naho ry hene fifokoan’anjomba’ Israele;
Heare ye the word of the Lord, O house of Iaakob, and all the families of the house of Israel.
5 Hoe t’Iehovà: Ino ty tsi-havañonañe nizoe’ o roae’ areoo amako, kanao nihankaña’e, naho nañorike ty tsy jefa’e, vaho nifotsake ho kafoake?
Thus sayeth the Lord, What iniquitie haue your fathers founde in mee, that they are gone farre from mee, and haue walked after vanitie, and are become vaine?
6 Mbore tsy nanao ty hoe iereo: Aia t’Iehovà nanese antika niakatse an-tane Mitsraime, niranga i fatram-beiy, i tanen-diolio naho koboñey, i tanem-paosa an-talinjon-kavilasiy, tane mb’e lia’e tsy nitsahe ‘ondaty, vaho tsy fimoneña’ ty ana’ ondaty.
For they saide not, Where is the Lord that brought vs vp out of the lande of Egypt? that led vs through the wildernesse, through a desert, and waste land, through a drie land, and by the shadow of death, by a land that no man passed through, and where no man dwelt?
7 Nendesako mb’an-tane mamokatse, hikama’ areo ty hasoa’e; fa ie nizilik’ ao te mone tiniva’ areo i tanekoy, vaho vineta’ areo i lovakoy.
And I brought you into a plentifull countrey, to eat the fruit thereof, and the commodities of the same: but when yee entred, yee defiled my land, and made mine heritage an abomination.
8 Tsy nanao ty hoe o mpisoroñeo: Aia t’Iehovà? Namoea’ o mpamandroñe Hàke iabio iraho, nandilatse ahy o mpiarakeo, nitoky añamy Baale o mpitokio, vaho nañorike raha tsy vara.
The priests said not, Where is the Lord? and they that should minister the Lawe, knewe me not: the pastours also offended against me, and the Prophets prophesied in Baal, and went after things that did not profite.
9 Aa le hiatreatreako, hoe t’Iehovà, vaho hatreatrèko o anan’ana’ areoo.
Wherefore I wil yet plead with you, saith the Lord, and I will pleade with your childrens children.
10 Mitsahà mb’an-tokonosen’ te-Kitìmeo añe naho mandrendreha naho ampañitrifo mb’e Kedare mb’eo vaho mitsoeha, hera ho oni’ areo te fa teo, o hoe zao:
For goe ye to the yles of Chittim, and beholde, and sende vnto Kedar. and take diligent heede, and see whether there be such things.
11 Tane aia ty nañova o ‘ndrahare’eo, ie toe ‘ndrahare tsie avao? fe nasolo’ ondatiko raha tsy manjofake ty enge’ iareo.
Hath any nation changed their gods, which yet are no gods? but my people haue chaged their glorie, for that which doeth not profite.
12 Ilatsao ry likerañeo, minevenevèra naho mijehàra, hoe t’Iehovà.
O yee heauens, be astonied at this: bee afraid and vtterly confounded, sayeth the Lord.
13 Nanao hakeo roe ondatikoo: Nifarie’ iareo iraho, i Rano Veloñe migoangoañey, hihalia’iareo kadaha, kadaha señake tsy mahatan-drano.
For my people haue committed two euils: they haue forsaken mee the fountaine of liuing waters, to digge them pittes, euen broken pittes, that can holde no water.
14 Ondevo hao t’Israele? Fetrek’oro hao? Aa le ino ty idohirañ’ aze?
Is Israel a seruaunt, or is hee borne in the house? why then is he spoiled?
15 Fa nitroñe ama’e o liona tora’eo, nipoña-peo hampangoakoak’ i tane’ey, kòake iaby o rova’eo, tsy amam-pimoneñe.
The lions roared vpon him and yelled, and they haue made his land waste: his cities are burnt without an inhabitant.
16 Hinara’ o ana’ i Nofe naho i Tak’penkeseo ty hevo’o.
Also the children of Noph and Tahapanes haue broken thine head.
17 Tsy zao hao ty tali’ i raha zay, te naforintse’o t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’o, i niaolo azo amy lalañeiy.
Hast not thou procured this vnto thy selfe, because thou hast forsaken the Lord thy God, when he led thee by the way?
18 Ino mb’arè ty atao’o an-dalam-b’e Mitsraime añe, hitohoke ty ranon-tSikore hao? Ino ka ty hanoe’o an-dalañe mb’e Asore mb’eo, he hitrinike i ranon-tSàkay hao?
And what hast thou now to do in the way of Egypt? to drinke the water of Nilus? or what makest thou in the way of Asshur? to drinke the water of the Riuer?
19 Ty halò-tsere’o avao ty hitrevok’ azo, naho hañendak’ azo ty fidisa-voli’o; mahaoniña arè, vaho mahaisaha te raha raty naho mafaitse ty fitsambolitio’o an’ Andrianañahare’o, naho te tsy ama’o ty fañeveñañe Amako, hoe t’i Talè, Iehovà’ i Màroy.
Thine owne wickednes shall correct thee, and thy turnings backe shall reprooue thee: know therefore and beholde, that it is an euil thing, and bitter, that thou hast forsaken the Lord thy God, and that my feare is not in thee, sayeth the Lord God of hostes.
20 Fa pinozako haehae ty joka’o, rinafadrafako o vahotseo, le hoe irehe: Tsy ho toroñeko, te mone nandrea’o vaho nanao hakarapiloañe ambone’ ze hene haboañe naho ambane’ ze fonga hatae mandrevake
For of olde time I haue broken thy yoke, and burst thy bondes, and thou saidest, I will no more transgresse, but like an harlot thou runnest about vpon al hie hilles, and vnder all greene trees.
21 Ie naketsako am-bahem-panjàka, toe am-boa’e soa do’e; inom-barè ty nifotera’o ho hatae tsy jefa’e, ho vahe alik’amako?
Yet I had planted thee, a noble vine, whose plants were all natural: howe then art thou turned vnto me into the plants of a strange vine?
22 Aa ndra te ihe mikitroñe an-kilìny, vaho milipotse an-tsavony ao, mboe komatrao amako o tahi’oo, hoe t’i Talè, Iehovà.
Though thou wash thee with nitre, and take thee much sope, yet thine iniquitie is marked before me, sayeth the Lord God.
23 Aa vaho ino ty atao’o ty hoe: Tsy aman-kila iraho, izaho tsy nihitrike mb’amo Baaleo? Isao ty sata’o am-bavatane ao, mahafohina o anoe’oo; kiloan-drameva malisa irehe, manivalativala o lala’eo;
Howe canst thou say, I am not polluted, neither haue I followed Baalim? beholde thy waies in the valley, and know, what thou hast done: thou art like a swift dromedarie, that runneth by his waies.
24 tamanam-birike lý zatse am-patrañe ao, mañantson-tioke am-pañirian-tro’e, ia ty mahafikalañe i fitongoña’ey? Tsy ho mokotse ty mipay aze, ho oni’ iareo amy fivola’ey.
And as a wilde asse, vsed to the wildernesse, that snuffeth vp the winde by occasion at her pleasure: who can turne her backe? all they that seeke her, will not wearie themselues, but wil finde her in her moneth.
25 Tano o fandia’oo tsy ho afa-kana, ty tretra’o tsy haran-drano; fe hoe irehe: Tsy aman-ko tamaeñe, Aiy! amy te nikoko ambahiny iraho, le tsy mete tsy heañeko.
Keepe thou thy feete from barenes, and thy throte from thirst: but thou saidest desperately, No, for I haue loued strangers, and them will I follow.
26 Hambañe ami’ty hasalara’ ty mpikizo, ie tendreke, ty hameñara’ ty anjomba’ Israele: ie naho o mpanjaka’eo, o roandria’eo, o mpisoro’eo, vaho o mpitoki’eo.
As the theefe is ashamed, when he is foud, so is the house of Israel ashamed, they, their kings, their princes and their Priests, and their Prophets,
27 Ie manao ami’ty hatae ty hoe: Raeko irehe, naho ami’ty vato: Ihe ty niterak’ ahy, toe nampiatre-boho amako iereo fa tsy ty laharañe; fe an-tsa maha am-poheke ro hanoa’iareo ty hoe: Miongaha, rombaho zahay.
Saying to a tree, Thou art my father, and to a stone, Thou hast begotten me: for they haue turned their back vnto me, and not their face: but in ye time of their troble they wil say, Arise, and help vs.
28 Aia heike o ‘ndrahare tsinene’o ho azoo? Angao hiongake iereo, naho mete handrombak’ azo an-tsan-kankà’o ao; fa mira ami’ty hamaro’ o rova’oo ty ndrahare’o, ry Iehodà.
But where are thy gods, that thou hast made thee? let them arise, if they can helpe thee in the time of thy trouble: for according to the nomber of thy cities, are thy gods, O Iudah.
29 Akore t’ie miatreatre ahiko? Ie fonga nanao hakeo amako, hoe t’Iehovà.
Wherefore wil ye pleade with me? ye all haue rebelled against me, sayeth the Lord.
30 Tsy jefa’e ty nandafàko o ana’ areoo, ie tsy mete avohotse; toe nabotsem-pibara’ areo o mpitoki’areoo, hoe namotsahan-diona.
I haue smitten your children in vaine, they receiued no correction: your owne sworde hath deuoured your Prophets like a destroying lyon.
31 Ry tariratseo, inao ty tsara’ Iehovà: Nifatram-bey am’ Israele hao iraho? ndra tane migobon-kaiem-bey? Ino ty atao’ ondatikoo ty hoe: Votsotse zahay; tsy homb’ama’o ka?
O generation, take heede to the worde of the Lord: haue I bene as a wildernesse vnto Israel? or a lande of darkenesse? Wherefore sayeth my people then, We are lordes, we will come no more vnto thee?
32 Handikofa’ ty somondrara hao o rava’eo, ndra ty enga-vao o saro’eo? Fe haliño’ ondatikoo andro tsy fotofoto iraho.
Can a maid forget her ornament, or a bride her attire? yet my people haue forgotten me, daies without number.
33 Ino ty ihamina’o ty lalam-pipaia’o koko? Toe nanare’o amo sata-rati’oo ka o kalalijakeo.
Why doest thou prepare thy way, to seeke amitie? euen therefore will I teach thee, that thy waies are wickednesse.
34 Mbore oniñe an-jipo’o ao ty liom-piai’ o rarake vañoñeo; tsy nirendre’o t’ie niboroboñake ama’o; ie amy hoe rezay
Also in thy wings is founde the bloud of the soules of ye poore innocents: I haue not found it in holes, but vpon all these places.
35 manao ty hoe: Izaho tsy aman-kakeo; fa mitolik’ amako ty haviñera’e— ingo mikai-jaka amako irehe ami’ty atao’o ty hoe: Tsy aman-tahin-draho.
Yet thou saiest, Because I am giltles, surely his wrath shall turne from mee: beholde, I will enter with thee into iudgement, because thou saiest, I haue not sinned.
36 Ie mikanifokanifoke avao ami’ty fiovà’o lalañe; Toe ho salare’ i Mitsraime ka manahake ty hameñara’o amy Asore.
Why runnest thou about so much to change thy waies? for thou shalt be confounded of Egypt, as thou art confounded of Asshur.
37 Boak’ atoy ty hiakara’o, taña-mitan-doha; fa napo’ Iehovà o niatoa’oo, vaho tsy hiraorao am’ iereo irehe.
For thou shalt goe foorth from thence, and thine hands vpon thine head, because the Lord hath reiected thy confidence, and thou shalt not prosper thereby.
