< Jeremia 3 >
1 Saontsieñe te, ie mitsey valy t’indaty naho mifanarak’ ama’e i rakembay, naho engae’ t’indaty ila’e, ho mete hao te himpolie’e i valoha’ey? Tsy haniva i taney hao? F’ihe nanao hakarapiloañe ami’ty mpikoko maro, mbore te himpoly amako! hoe t’Iehovà.
“Saying, Behold, one sends his wife away, And she has gone from him, And she has been to another man, Does he return to her again? Is that land not greatly defiled? And you have committed whoredom with many lovers, And turn to Me again,” A declaration of YHWH.
2 Ampiandrao mb’an-kaboañe liolio ey o fihaino’oo le mahaisaha: Aia irehe te tsy niolorañe? Nitoboke añ’olon-dalañe eo nitsinginiotse am’iareo, manahake ty Arabe am-babangoañe añe; vaho nandeora’o amy hatsimirira’o naho ami’ty haloloa’o i taney.
“Lift your eyes to the high places, and see, Where have you not been lain with? You have sat for them on the ways, As an Arab in a wilderness, And you defile the land, By your fornications, and by your wickedness.
3 Toly ndra nahànkañe i orañey, naho tsy nahavy ora-mamaratse; toe nanao laharan-kalalijake irehe, mifoneñe tsy ho salatse.
And showers are withheld, and there has been no spring rain. You have the forehead of a whorish woman, You have refused to be ashamed.
4 Aa tsy nitoreova’o aniany ami’ty hoe: Ry Aba, Nirañeko irehe te izaho nitora’e.
Have you not from now on called to Me, My Father, You [are] the leader of my youth?
5 Ho tana’e nainai’e hao ty kabo’e? ifahara’e pak’an-kamodoañe añe hao? Inay ty saontsi’o, fe nitoloñe’o raha raty vaho i nipaia’oy avao ty norihe’o.
Does He keep for all time? Watch forever? Behold, you have spoken these things, And you do evil, and prevail.”
6 Le hoe t’Iehovà amako tañ’andro Iosià, mpanjaka: Niisa’o hao i nanoe’ Israele mpidisa-voliy? Songa vinonje’e ze vohitse abo naho ambane’ ze hatae mandrevake, vaho nanao hakarapiloañe ao.
And YHWH says to me, in the days of Josiah the king, “Have you seen that which backsliding Israel has done? She is going on every high mountain, and to the place of every green tree, and commits fornication there.
7 Le hoe iraho, Ie fonga nanoe’e, le himpoly amako; f’ie tsy nimpoly, vaho nahatrea izay ka t’Iehodà rahavave’e mpahay fañahy.
And I say, after her doing all these, Return to Me, and she has not returned, and her treacherous sister Judah sees it.
8 Le nitreako te ndra t’ie tsineiko reke-takelam-pisarahañe ty amo fonga fañarapiloa’ Israele mpidisa-volio, le tsy nañembañe Iehodà, rahavave’e mpiolay izay; ie nimb’eo nañarapilo ka.
And I see that for all the causes whereby backsliding Israel committed adultery, I have sent her away, and I give the bill of her divorce to her; and her treacherous sister Judah has not feared, and goes and commits fornication—she also.
9 Ty amy fitsihelatsihela’ i reñeley, fonga nileore’e i taney, vaho niolora’e ze hatae naho vato;
And it has come to pass, from the vileness of her fornication, that the land is defiled, and she commits fornication with stone and with wood.
10 Ie amy zay, mboe tsy nimpoly amako ami’ty haliforan’arofo’e i rahavave’e Iehodà mpamañahiy fa an-kalitake avao, hoe t’Iehovà—
And even in all this her treacherous sister Judah has not turned back to Me with all her heart, but with falsehood,” a declaration of YHWH.
11 Le hoe t’Iehovà amako, Niventè’ Israele mpidisa-voliy te mbe ambone’ Iehodà mpamañahiy ty havañona’e.
And YHWH says to me: “Backsliding Israel has justified herself, More than treacherous Judah.
12 Akia, tseizo mañavaratse o tsara zao ami’ty hoe: Mimpolia ry Israele mpidisa-volio, hoe t’Iehovà; Tsy hibosehako, fa hitretrezako, hoe t’Iehovà, tsy ho tanako nainai’e ty farahiko.
Go, and you have proclaimed these words toward the north, and have said, Return, O backsliding Israel,” A declaration of YHWH! “I do not cause My anger to fall on you, for I [am] kind,” A declaration of YHWH, “I do not watch for all time.
13 Iantofo avao o hakeo’oo, o nandilara’o am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’oo, ie naboele’o amy ze hene ambahiny ambane’ ze hatae mandrevake o sata’o, naho tsy nihaoñe’o ty feoko, hoe t’Iehovà.
Only, know your iniquity, For you have transgressed against your God YHWH, And you scatter your ways to strangers, Under every green tree, And you have not listened to My voice,” A declaration of YHWH.
14 Mimpolia ry anake mpidisa-volio, hoe t’Iehovà; fa Tañanjomba’areo iraho, naho hengaeko boak’an-drova ao ty raik’ ama’ areo, ty roe boak’ am-pifokoañ’ ao, vaho haseseko mb’e Tsione mb’eo;
“Return, O backsliding sons,” A declaration of YHWH. “For I have ruled over you, And taken you—one from a city, and two from a family, And have brought you to Zion,
15 Le ho tolorako mpiarake milahatse ami’ty troko, hamahana’e hilala naho hihitse.
And I have given shepherds to you According to My own heart, And they have fed you with knowledge and understanding.
16 Ho tondroke t’ie nanaranake vaho nanitsike i taney amo andro añeo, hoe t’Iehovà, te tsy hanao ty hoe ka iereo: Ty vatam-pañina’ Iehovà; tsy ho tendreke an-tsaiñe; tsy ho saontsieñe; tsy ho tiliheñe; vaho tsy hanoeñe ka.
And it has come to pass, when you are multiplied, And have been fruitful in the land, In those days,” A declaration of YHWH, “They no longer say, The Ark of the Covenant of YHWH, Nor does it go up on the heart, Nor do they remember concerning it, Nor do they inspect, nor is it made again.
17 Amy andro zay, hatao’ iareo ty hoe fiambesa’ Iehovà t’Ierosalaime; le kila fifeheañe ty hifanontone mb’amy tahina’ Iehovày mb’e Ierosalaime mb’eo; vaho tsy hañaveloa’ iareo ka i fanjeharan-tron-kaloloañey.
At that time they cry to Jerusalem, O throne of YHWH, And all the nations have been gathered to her, For the Name of YHWH, to Jerusalem, Nor do they go after the stubbornness of their evil heart anymore.
18 Hiharo-lia ami’ty anjomba’ Israele ty anjomba’ Iehodà amy andro zay, vaho hindre lia boak’ an-tane avaratse añe pak’ amy tane natoloko an-droae’ areo ho lovay.
In those days the house of Judah Goes to the house of Israel, And they come together from the land of the south, To the land that I caused your fathers to inherit.
19 Le hoe iraho: Akore t’ie havotrako amo anakoo, naho hatoloko tane soa, ty lova loho fanjaka amo fifeheañeo? Le ho tokave’oo ty hoe: Raeko, iraho, vaho tsy hivike ami’ty fañorihañe ahy.
And I have said, How do I put you among the sons, And give a desirable land to you, A beautiful inheritance of the hosts of nations, And I say, You call Me—My Father, And you do not turn back from after Me.
20 Toe manahake ty rakemba misita-baly am-pamañahiañe ty namañahia’o ahy, ry anjomba’ Israele! hoe t’Iehovà.
But a woman has deceived her friend, So you have dealt treacherously with Me, O house of Israel,” A declaration of YHWH.
21 Inay ty fiarañanañañe boak’ an-kaboañe maliolio eñe, ty fangoihoia’ o ana’ Israele misolohoo, amy te nimengohe’ iereo ty lala’ iareoy, nandikofa’ iereo t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ iareo:
A voice is heard on high places—weeping, Supplications of the sons of Israel, For they have made their way perverse, They have forgotten their God YHWH.
22 Mimpolia ry anake manjehatseo, le ho jangañeko ty fanjehara’ areo. Itoan-jahay mb’ama’o, amy te Ihe ro Iehovà Andrianañahare’ay.
“Return, O backsliding sons, I cause your backslidings to cease.” “Behold us, we have come to You, For You [are] our God YHWH.
23 Toe sahàtse avao o vohitseo, o fifandragaragàñe an-kaboañeo. Toe am’ Iehovà Andrianañahe’ay ty fandrombahañe Israele.
Surely in vain—from the heights, The multitude of mountains—Surely the salvation of Israel [is] in our God YHWH.
24 Fa nabea’ i hameñarañey mifototse ami’ty nahatora anay o raha nitoloñan-droae’aio, o lia-rai’eo, o mpirai-tro’eo, naho o ana-dahi’eo vaho o anak’ampela’eo.
And the shameful thing has devoured The labor of our fathers from our youth, Their flock and their herd, Their sons and their daughters.
25 Antao hibabok’ an-keñatse, hisaron-tsalatse; fa nanao hakeo am’ Iehovà Andrianañaharentika tika naho o raentikañeo, boak’ ami’ty naha-ajaja antika pake henane, vaho tsy norihentika ty fiarañanaña’ Iehovà Andrianañaharentika.
We have lain down in our shame, and our confusion covers us, For we have sinned against our God YHWH, We, and our fathers, from our youth even to this day, Nor have we listened to the voice of our God YHWH!”
