< Jeremia 20 >

1 Ie jinanji’ i Paskore ana’ Imere, mpisoroñe, loham-pifehe añ’ An­jomba’ Iehovà ao, i nitokie’ Iirmeày,
Now Pashhur, the son of Immer the priest, who was chief officer in the house of Jehovah, heard Jeremiah prophesying these things.
2 le nampandafa’ i Paskore t’Iirmeà, vaho najo’e an-dangoke an-dalam-bei’ i Beniamine añ’ Anjomba’ Iehovà ao.
Then Pashhur smote Jeremiah the prophet, and put him in the stocks that were in the upper gate of Benjamin, which was in the house of Jehovah.
3 Ie amy loak’ àndroy naho nakare’ i Paskore amy longòkey t’Iirmeà, le nanoe’ Iirmeà ty hoe, Tsy Paskore ty nanoe’ Iehovà i tahina’oy fa Magòremisabìbe.
And it came to pass on the morrow, that Pashhur brought forth Jeremiah out of the stocks. Then said Jeremiah unto him, Jehovah hath not called thy name Pashhur, but Magor-missabib.
4 Fa hoe t’Iehovà: Ingo hanoeko harevendreveñañe ami’ty vata’o naho amo hene rañe’oo irehe; le ho isam-pihaino’o ty ho korovohem-pibaran-drafelahi’ iareo, naho fonga hatoloko am-pitàm-panjaka’ i Bavele t’Iehodà naho hasese’e an-drohy mb’e Bavele mb’eo vaho ho zevoñe’e am-pibara.
For thus saith Jehovah, Behold, I will make thee a terror to thyself, and to all thy friends; and they shall fall by the sword of their enemies, and thine eyes shall behold it; and I will give all Judah into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall carry them captive to Babylon, and shall slay them with the sword.
5 Hatoloko iareo ze hene haja’ ty rova toy; o havokara’e iabio, naho o raha sarobili’e iabio, eka, ze fonga vara’ o mpanjaka’ Iehodào ty hatoloko am-pità’ o rafe­lahi’eo; ho kopahe’ iereo, ho rambese’ iereo vaho hendese’ iareo mb’e Bavele añe.
Moreover I will give all the riches of this city, and all the gains thereof, and all the precious things thereof, yea, all the treasures of the kings of Judah will I give into the hand of their enemies; and they shall make them a prey, and take them, and carry them to Babylon.
6 Le ihe, Paskore, naho ze fonga añ’ anjomba’o ao ro hasese mb’am-pandrohizam-b’eo; le ho avy e Bavele añe irehe, naho hihomake añe, vaho haleveñe añe, Ihe rekets’ o rañe’o iaby nitokia’o entam-bìlañeo.
And thou, Pashhur, and all that dwell in thy house shall go into captivity; and thou shalt come to Babylon, and there thou shalt die, and there shalt thou be buried, thou, and all thy friends, to whom thou hast prophesied falsely.
7 Ry Iehovà, nazi’o iraho le nimeteako, niambotraha’o, vaho nahagioke; izaho fitohàfañe lomoñandro, mañabiañe ahy ie abikey.
O Jehovah, thou hast persuaded me, and I was persuaded; thou art stronger than I, and hast prevailed: I am become a laughing-stock all the day, every one mocketh me.
8 Ie mivolan-draho le mitazataza, mikoiake ty hoe: Joy naho fandrotsahañe; aa le sirikaeñe naho injeañe lomoñandro iraho ty amy tsara’ Iehovày
For as often as I speak, I cry out; I cry, Violence and destruction! because the word of Jehovah is made a reproach unto me, and a derision, all the day.
9 Ie anoeko ty hoe, tsy hivolañe aze iraho, tsy hirehak’ ami’ty tahina’e ka, toly ndra afo ty mihoboboke an-troko, migabeñe an-taolako ao, naho mokotse avao iraho t’ie tanañe ao, vaho tsy feleko.
And if I say, I will not make mention of him, nor speak any more in his name, then there is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I am weary with forbearing, and I cannot [contain].
10 Tsinanoko ty tangogo’ i màroy, mangebahebake mb’atia mb’etia: Manirikà, eka ho sirikae’ay; mamandroñ’ahy o rañeko iabio ke hitsikapy: He ho fañahien-dre, hoe iereo, Toe ho felen-tika, ho valen-tikañe.
For I have heard the defaming of many, terror on every side. Denounce, and we will denounce him, [say] all my familiar friends, they that watch for my fall; peradventure he will be persuaded, and we shall prevail against him, and we shall take our revenge on him.
11 Fe mindre amako t’Iehovà hoe fanalolahy; aa le hitsikapy o mpampisoañe ahio, naho tsy hahalefe, akore ty ho fisalara’ iareo kanao tsy zary vaho ho fañonjirañe tsy ho haliño kitro katroke.
But Jehovah is with me as a mighty one [and] a terrible: therefore my persecutors shall stumble, and they shall not prevail; they shall be utterly put to shame, because they have not dealt wisely, even with an everlasting dishonor which shall never be forgotten.
12 Ry Iehovà’ i Màroy, ry Mpitsoke o vantañeo, Mpivazoho añ’ova naho añ’arofo ao, ehe te ho treako ty famalea’o fate iareo; fa Ihe ty nampibentarako ty amako.
But, O Jehovah of hosts, that triest the righteous, that seest the heart and the mind, let me see thy vengeance on them; for unto thee have I revealed my cause.
13 Sabò t’Iehovà, rengeo t’Iehovà; fa hinaha’e am-pità’ o lo-tserekeo ty fiai’ o rarakeo.
Sing unto Jehovah, praise ye Jehovah; for he hath delivered the soul of the needy from the hand of evil-doers.
14 Fatse i andro nahatoly ahikoy; ehe te tsy ho tahieñe i andro niterahan-drenekoy.
Cursed be the day wherein I was born: let not the day wherein my mother bare me be blessed.
15 Ozoñeñe t’indaty ninday talily an-draeko, nanao ty hoe: Nisamake lahilahy irehe, nahafale aze.
Cursed be the man who brought tidings to my father, saying, A man-child is born unto thee; making him very glad.
16 Ehe te hanahake o rova narotsa’ Iehovà tsy mete nisolohoo indaty zay; Ee t’ie hijanjiñe kaikaike te maraiñe, naho hazolava te tsipinde-mena.
And let that man be as the cities which Jehovah overthrew, and repented not: and let him hear a cry in the morning, and shouting at noontime;
17 Amy t’ie tsy vinono’e boak’ an-koviñ’ ao; soa te ho ni-kiboriko ty reneko, ie nainai’e ho ni-bei-troke.
because he slew me not from the womb; and so my mother would have been my grave, and her womb always great.
18 Aa vaho ino ty niakarako i hoviñey hahatreavako haemberañe naho hasotriañe, hampibotsehan-kasalarañe o androkoo?
Wherefore came I forth out of the womb to see labor and sorrow, that my days should be consumed with shame?
