Jeremia 21
1 Ty tsara’ Iehovà am’Iirmeà, ie nirahe’ i Tsidkià ama’e t’i Paskore ana’ i Malkià naho i Tsefanià ana’ i Maaseia mpisoroñe nanao ama’e ty hoe:
The word that has been to Jeremiah from YHWH, in King Zedekiah’s sending to him Pashhur son of Malchiah and Zephaniah son of Maaseiah the priest, saying,
2 Ehe, mihalalia ho anay am’ Iehovà; amy te maname aly aman-tika t’i Nebokadnetsare mpanjaka’ i Bavele; hera hitoloñe ho antika t’Iehovà manahake i hene fitoloña’e fanjaka rezay, hampihakañe aze aman-tika.
“Please inquire of YHWH for us, for Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has fought against us; perhaps YHWH deals with us according to all His wonders, and causes him to go up from off us.”
3 Le hoe t’Iirmeà am’ iereo: Ty hoe ty ho saontsie’ areo amy Tsidkià:
And Jeremiah says to them, “Thus you say to Zedekiah,
4 Hoe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele: Inao! hafoteko o fialiañe ampità’ areoo, o fialia’ areo amy mpanjaka’ i Baveleio, naho amo nte-Kasdy mamalañe anahareo alafe’ o kijolioo, fa hatontoko an-drova atoy iereo.
Thus said YHWH, God of Israel: Behold, I am turning around the weapons of battle That [are] in your hand, With which you fight the king of Babylon, And the Chaldeans, who are laying siege against you, At the outside of the wall, And I have gathered them into the midst of this city,
5 Le Izaho avao ty hialy ama’ areo am-pità’ natorakìtsy naho an-tsirañe maozatse, naho an-kaboseke mileveleve, vaho am-pifombo miforoforo.
And I have fought against you, With an outstretched hand, and with a strong arm, And in anger, and in fury, and in great wrath,
6 Le ho lafaeko o mpimone’ ty rova toio, ndra ondaty ndra biby; hampihomahe’ ty angorosy jabajaba.
And I have struck the inhabitants of this city, Both man and beast, They die by a great pestilence.
7 Ie heneke, hoe t’Iehovà, le haseseko am-pità’ i Nebokadnetsare mpanjaka’ i Bavele naho am-pità’ o rafelahi’eo, naho am-pità’ o mipay ty fiai’eo t’i Tsidkià mpanjaka’Iehodà naho o mpitoro’eo, naho ze ondati’ an-drova atoy sinisa’ i angorosiy naho i fibaray, naho i hasalikoañey; vaho ho lafae’e an-kasiom-pibara, le tsy hihevea’e, tsy hiferenaiña’e, vaho tsy hitretreza’e.
And after this,” A declaration of YHWH, “I give Zedekiah king of Judah, And his servants, and the people, And those left in this city, From the pestilence, from the sword, and from the famine, Into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, And into the hand of their enemies, And into the hand of those seeking their life, And he has struck them by the mouth of the sword, He has no pity on them, Nor does he spare, nor does he have mercy.”
8 Le hoe ty hatao’o am’ondaty retoa: Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà: Hehe te apoko aolo’ areo eo ty lalan-kaveloñe naho ty lalam-pikoromahañe.
“And you say to this people, Thus said YHWH: Behold, I am setting before you the way of life, And the way of death!
9 Ze tambatse an-drova atoy ho vonoe’ ty fibara naho ty kerè, vaho ty angorosy; fe ho veloñe ze miakatse, miambane amo nte-Kasdy mañarikatok’ anahareoo, le ho tamben-ali’e ty fiai’e.
Whoever is abiding in this city—dies, By sword, and by famine, and by pestilence, And whoever is going forth, And has fallen to the Chaldeans, Who are laying siege against you—lives, And his life has been for a spoil to him.
10 Fe nampiatrefeko ami’ty rova toy ty tareheko ho hekoheko fa tsy hasoa, hoe t’Iehovà; ie hatolotse am-pità’ i mpanjaka’ i Baveley, vaho ho forototoe’e amañ’afo.
For I have set My face against this city for calamity, And not for good,” A declaration of YHWH. “It is given into the hand of the king of Babylon, And he has burned it with fire.
11 Le i anjombam-panjaka’ Iehodày, janjiño ty tsara’ Iehovà;
And as for the house of the king of Judah,” Hear a word of YHWH;
12 Ry anjomba’ i Davide, hoe t’Iehovà: Ano ty hatò boak’andro, vaho avotsoro am-pità’ ty mpamorekeke i nikamereñey, tsy mone hionjoñe hoe afo ty habosehako, hamorototoako tsy ho lefe vonoeñe, ty amo haloloam-pitoloña’ areoo.
O house of David, thus said YHWH: “Decide judgment in the morning, And deliver the plundered from the hand of the oppressor, Lest My fury go forth as fire, And has burned, and none is quenching, Because of the evil of your doings.
13 Hehe te miatrek’azo raho ry mpimoneñe am-bavatane ao, hoe t’ie vato a montoñe ey, hoe t’Iehovà: amy ty fatao’ areo ty hoe: Ia ty hizotso haname anay? ndra ia ty himoak’ añ-akiba’ay atoa.
Behold, I [am] against you,” A declaration of YHWH, “O inhabitant of the valley, rock of the plain, Who are saying, Who comes down against us? And who comes into our habitations?
14 Toe ho liloveko ty amo vokam-pitoloña’ areoo, hoe t’Iehovà; naho hamiañako afo i ala’ey, vaho fonga ho tomontoñe ze mañohok’ aze.
And I have laid a charge against you, According to the fruit of your doings,” A declaration of YHWH, “And I have kindled a fire in its forest, And it has consumed all its outskirts!”
