1 Hankàñe amo mpiarake manjamañe naho mampibaibay o añondrim-piandrazakoo! hoe t’Iehovà.
“Woe to shepherds destroying, And scattering the flock of My pasture,” A declaration of YHWH.
2 Aa le hoe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele amo mpiarake mamahañe ondatikoo: Fa nampivarakaihe’ areo i lia-raikoy, vaho rinoa’ areo añe; tsy sinari’ areo; aa le hisariako ty amo haloloam-pitoloña’ areo, hoe t’Iehovà.
Therefore, thus said YHWH, God of Israel, Against the shepherds who feed My people: “You have scattered My flock, and drive them away, And have not inspected them, Behold, I am charging on you the evil of your doings,” A declaration of YHWH.
3 Le izaho ty hanontoñe ty sehanga’ i lia-raikoy boak’ amo fifeheañe nandroahako iareoo, le hampoliko mb’ an-golobo’e mb’eo; vaho hiraorao vaho hanaranake.
“And I gather the remnant of My flock Out of all the lands to where I drove them, And have brought them back to their fold, And they have been fruitful, and multiplied.
4 Le hampitroareko mpiarake hisary iareo naho hamahañe iareo; ie tsy ho hembañe ka, tsy hiroreke, vaho tsy ama’e ty hirereke, hoe t’Iehovà.
And I have raised shepherds for them, And they have fed them, And they no longer fear, nor are frightened, Nor are they lacking,” A declaration of YHWH.
5 Ingo ho tondroke ty andro, hoe t’Iehovà, t’ie hampitirieko amy Davide ty tora-mionjo-bantañe, ie ty ho mpanjaka hifeleke naho hiraorao, vaho hizaka amy taney an-katò naho an-kavañonañe.
“Behold, days are coming,” A declaration of YHWH, “And I have raised a righteous shoot to David, And a king has reigned and acted wisely, And done judgment and righteousness in the earth.
6 Ho rombaheñe amo andro’eo t’Iehodà, vaho hiaiñañoleñañe t’Israele; le zao ty tahina’e hikanjiañe aze: Iehovà Havantaña’ay.
Judah is saved in His days, and Israel dwells confidently, And this [is] His Name that YHWH proclaims Him: Our Righteousness.
7 Aa le ingo ho tondroke ty andro hoe t’Iehovà, te tsy hanoe’ iereo ty hoe: Kanao veloñe t’Iehovà nañakatse o ana’ Israeleo boak’ an-tane’ Mitsraime añe;
Therefore, behold, days are coming,” A declaration of YHWH, “And they no longer say, YHWH lives who brought up The sons of Israel out of the land of Egypt,
8 fe: Kanao veloñe t’Iehovà nañavotse naho niaolo ty tirin’ anjomba’ Israele boak’an-tane avaratse añe, hirik’amo hene fifeheañe nandroahako iareo, le himoneña’ iareo ty tane’iareo.
But—YHWH lives, who brought up, And who brought in, the seed of the house of Israel, From the land of the north, And from all the lands to where I drove them, And they have dwelt on their own ground!”
9 Aa ty amo mpitokio: Rofotse ty troko añ’ovako ao, miripidripike iaby o taolakoo, hoe te ondaty jike, manahake t’indaty nimamoe’ ty divay, ty am’ Iehovà naho o tsara’e masiñeo.
In reference to the prophets: My heart has been broken in my midst, All my bones have fluttered, I have been as a man—a drunkard, And as a man—wine has passed over him, Because of YHWH, and of His holy words.
10 Amy te manitsike i taney o mpañakarapiloo; itañia’ i taney i fatsey, mikantañe o fiandrazañe am-patrambeio; mengoke am-pañaveloañe iareo naho vàlañe an-kaozarañe;
For the land has been full of adulterers, For the land has mourned because of these, The pleasant places of the wilderness have dried up, And their course is evil, and their might—not right.
11 Tsy aman-Kàke ndra mpitoky ndra mpisoroñe; eka, ndra añ’akibako ao ty nahatreavako ty haloloa’ iareo, hoe t’Iehovà.
“For both prophet and priest have been profane, Indeed, I found their wickedness in My house,” A declaration of YHWH.
12 Aa le halama o lala’ iareoo, haronje ami’ty haleñe iereo vaho hivarinjonjok’ ao; fa hafetsako am’ iereo ty hankàñe, eka, ty taom-pitilihañe iareo, hoe t’Iehovà.
“Therefore their way is as slippery places to them, They are driven into thick darkness, And they have fallen in it, For I bring in calamity against them, The year of their inspection,” A declaration of YHWH.
13 Mbore nahatrea hativañe amo mpisoro’ i Someroneo iraho: i Baale ty fitokia’ iareo, mampanan-kakeo Israele ondatikoo.
“And I have seen folly in prophets of Samaria, They have prophesied by Ba‘al, And cause My people—Israel—to err.
14 Toe vata’e haloloañe ty nitreako amo mpitoky e Ierosalaimeo: ie mpañarapilo naho mpañavelo an-dañitse, ampahozare’ iareo ty fità’ o lo-tserekeo, soa tsy eo ty hibalintoa amy hatsivokara’ey; songa hanahake Sedome amako iereo, manahak’ i Amorà o mpimone’eo.
And I have seen a horrible thing in prophets of Jerusalem, Committing adultery, and walking falsely, Indeed, they strengthened the hands of evildoers, So that they have not turned back, Each from his wickedness, All of them have been as Sodom to me, And its inhabitants as Gomorrah.”
15 Aa le hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy ty amo mpitokio: Ingo hifahanako vahontsoy, ampinomeko manahin-afero; fa boak’ amo mpitoki’ Ierosalaimeo ty namelaran-katemboañe nahatsitsike ty tane.
Therefore, thus said YHWH of Hosts, concerning the prophets: “Behold, I am causing them to eat wormwood, And have caused them to drink water of gall, For from prophets of Jerusalem Profanity has gone forth to all the land.”
16 Hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy: Ko haoñe’ areo ty lañona’ o mpitoky mitoky ama’ areoo, o mitarik’ anahareo mb’an-koakeo; ty aroñaron-tro’e avao ty saontsie’ iereo f’ie tsy boak’am-palie’ Iehovà.
Thus said YHWH of Hosts: “You do not listen to the words Of the prophets who are prophesying to you, They are making you vain things, They speak a vision of their own heart, Not from the mouth of YHWH.
17 Mitolom-panao ty hoe amo malaiñe Ahio iereo: inao ty tsara’ Iehovà: Hierañerañe nahareo; naho amo manjotik’ am-panjeharan-tro’eo ty hoe: Tsy ho tendrek’ ama’ areo ty hekoheko.
Diligently saying to those despising, The word of YHWH: Peace is for you, And [to] everyone walking in the stubbornness of his heart, they have said: Evil does not come to you.”
18 Fa ia ty nijohañe am-pivori’ Iehovà ao hahaoniñe, hijanjiñe o tsara’eo? Ia ty nañaoñe i nafè’ey, naho nahafitsendreñ’aze?
For who has stood in the counsel of YHWH, And sees and hears His word? Who has regarded My word, and listens?
19 Ingo fa nionjoñe am-piforoforoa’e ty tio-bei’ Iehovà, eka, hiviombio an-doha’ o lo-tserekeo ty tangololahy.
Behold, a whirlwind of YHWH—Fury has gone out, even a piercing whirlwind, It stays on the head of the wicked.
20 Tsy himpoly ty haviñera’ Iehovà ampara’ t’ie mahaheneke, ampara’ te fonire’e i satrie’ey, ho fohi’ areo do’e izay amo andro honkahonka’eo.
The anger of YHWH does not turn back Until His doing, and until His establishing, The thoughts of His heart, In the latter end of the days You attend to it with understanding.
21 Tsy nafantoko o mpitoky retoa, f’ie mihitrihitry; tsy nivolañeko, f’ie mitoky avao.
“I have not sent the prophets, and they have run, I have not spoken to them, and they have prophesied.
22 Aa naho nijohañ’ ampivoriko ao, le ho nampijanjiñe’ iareo ondatikoo o entakoo, himpolia’iareo boak’amy lalan-kelokelo’iareoy vaho hiambohoa’ iareo o sata’ rati’ iareoo,
But if they stood in My counsel, Then they cause My people to hear My words, And they turn them back from their evil way, And from the evil of their doings.
23 Andrianañahare atoañe avao hao iraho, hoe t’Iehovà, fa tsy Andrianañahare añe ka?
[Am] I a God near,” A declaration of YHWH, “And not a God far off?
24 Eo hao ty mahafietake am-pipalira’e ao tsy ho treako? hoe t’Iehovà. Tsy manitsike i likerañey naho ty tane toy hao iraho? hoe t’Iehovà.
Is anyone hidden in secret places, And I do not see him?” A declaration of YHWH, “Do I not fill the heavens and the earth?” A declaration of YHWH.

“I have heard that which the prophets said, Who prophesy falsehood in My Name, saying, I have dreamed, I have dreamed.
26 Ampara’ te mb’ia te ho an-tro’ i mpitoky vilañey ty hitokia’e vande, ty hitoky ty famañahian-tro’e avao.
Until when is it in the heart of the prophets? The prophets of falsehood, Indeed, prophets of the deceit of their heart,
27 Fisafiria’ iareo ty hampañaliñoañe ondatikoo ty añarako amo nofi’ iareo ifampisaontsia’ iareoo, manahake ty nandikofa’ o roae’eo ty añarako ty amy Baale.
Who are devising to cause My people To forget My Name by their dreams, That they each recount to his neighbor, As their fathers forgot My Name for Ba‘al.
28 Ty mpitoky mañinofy, apoho hitalily i nofi’ey; le ty manañe i entakoy, soa re te hitaroñe am-pigahiñañe. Inoñ’ ami’ty ampemba hao ty ahetse? hoe t’Iehovà;
The prophet with whom [is] a dream, Let him recount the dream, And he with whom [is] My word, Let him truly speak My word. What does the straw [have to do] with the grain?” A declaration of YHWH.
29 Tsy manahake ty afo hao o volakoo? hoe t’Iehovà; naho hoe ana-bato mampikotekoteke ty lamilamy?
“Is it not thus? My word [is] as fire,” A declaration of YHWH. “And as a hammer—it breaks a rock in pieces.
30 Aa le inao! hejeko o mpitokio, hoe t’Iehovà, ie mifampikametse o entakoo.
Therefore, behold, I [am] against the prophets,” A declaration of YHWH, “Each stealing My words from his neighbor.
31 Inao hatreatreko o mpitokio, hoe t’Iehovà ie mañetseke ty famele’e hitoky ty hoe: Hoe ty tsara’e.
Behold, I [am] against the prophets,” A declaration of YHWH, “Who are making their tongue smooth, And they affirm—an affirmation.
32 Inao! toe hejeko o mitoky nofin-dremborakeo, hoe t’Iehovà, ie mitalily vaho mampandilatse ondatikoo amo vande’eo naho amo fikanifoha’eo; ie tsy niraheko, tsy liniliko; mbore tsy mahasoa ondaty retoa, hoe t’Iehovà.
Behold, I [am] against the prophets of false dreams,” A declaration of YHWH, “And they recount them, and cause My people to err, By their falsehoods, and by their instability, And I have not sent them, Nor have I commanded them, And they are not profitable to this people at all,” A declaration of YHWH.
33 Aa naho manao ty hoe ama’o ondaty retoa, ndra ty mpitoky, ndra ty mpisoroñe: Ino ty nafè’ Iehovà? le isaontsio ty hoe, Fetse inoñe! Fa ho farieko nahareo, hoe t’Iehovà.
“And when this people, or the prophet, Or a priest, asks you, saying, What [is] the burden of YHWH? Then you have said to them: You [are] the burden, and I have left you,” A declaration of YHWH.
34 Le ty mpitoky ndra mpisoroñe ndra ze ondaty mete hanao ty hoe: Ty nafè’ Iehovà; toe ho liloveko rekets’ i anjomba’ey indatiy.
“And the prophet, and the priest, and the people, That says, The burden of YHWH, I have seen after that man, and after his house.
35 Fe songa hifanaontsy ty hoe aman-drañe’e naho aman-drahalahi’e: Ino ty navale’ Iehovà? ndra Ino ty nitsa­rae’ Iehovà?
Thus you each say to his neighbor, And each to his brother: What has YHWH answered? And what has YHWH spoken?
36 fe tsy ho tiahi’ areo ty nafè’ Iehovà; fa sambe hisaontsy ty enta’e avao ondatio ho fetse, ie nimengohe’ areo ty tsaran’ Añahare veloñe, Iehovà’ i Màroy, Andrianañaharentikañe.
And you do not mention the burden of YHWH anymore, For the burden to each is His word, And you have overturned the words of the living God, YHWH of Hosts, our God.
37 Ty hoe ka ty hatao’ areo ami’ty mpitoky: Ino ty natoi’ Iehovà azo? naho Ino ty ni­tsarae’ Iehovà?
Thus you say to the prophet, What has YHWH answered you? And what has YHWH spoken?
38 Fe anoe’areo ty hoe: Ty nafè’ Iehovà; le hoe t’Iehovà: kanao taroñe’ areo ty hoe: Ty nafè’ Iehovà, ie nafantoko ama’ areo ty hoe: Tsy ho saontsie’ areo ty hoe: Ty nafè’ Iehovà;
And if you say, The burden of YHWH, Therefore, thus said YHWH: Because of your saying this word, The burden of YHWH, And I send to you, saying, You do not say, The burden of YHWH.
39 Ingo toe handikofako nahareo, haitoako tsy ho añ’ atrefako eo rekets’ i rova natoloko aman-droae’ areoy;
Therefore, behold, I have utterly taken you away, And I have sent you out, And the city that I gave to you, And to your fathers, from before My face,
40 vaho hapoko ama’ areo ty inje tsy ho modo naho ty hasalarañe kitro katroke tsy ho haliño.
And I have put continuous reproach on you, And continuous shame that is not forgotten!”
