< Jeremia 31 >
1 Amy andro zay, hoe t’Iehovà, le ho Andrianañahare’ ze hene fifokoa’ Israele iraho, vaho h’ondatiko iereo.
“In that time, says the Lord, I will be the God of all the families of Israel, and they will be my people.”
2 Hoe t’Iehovà: Nitendreke falalàñe am-patrambey añe ondaty nasisa’ i fibaraio, fa naseseko mb’am-pitofa’e mb’eo t’Israele.
Thus says the Lord: “The people who had remained after the sword, found grace in the desert. Israel will go to his rest.”
3 Niheo amako t’Iehovà boak’ an-tsietoitane añe. nanao ty hoe: Eka, fa nikokoako irehe am-pikokoañe tsy ho modo; izay ty nitaonako azo an-kafatraram-pikokoañe.
The Lord appeared to me from a distance: “And I have loved you in perpetual charity. Therefore, showing pity, I have drawn you.
4 Hamboareko indraike le ho fonireñe irehe ry somondrara’ Israele; ho tintine’o indraike o kantsà’oo, naho hionjo-mb’an-tsinjake mindre amo mpifaleo.
And I will build you up again. And you shall be built up, O virgin of Israel. Still shall you be adorned with your timbrels, and still shall you go forth to the singing of those who play.
5 Hambole vahe amo vohi’ i Someroneo indraike nahareo; hitongy o mpitongio, vaho hifale t’ie mahatoly sabo.
Still shall you plant vineyards on the mountains of Samaria. The planters will plant, and they will not gather the vintage until the time arrives.
6 Ho tondroke ty andro, te ho koihe’ ty mpijilo ambohi’ i Efraime ey, ty hoe: Miavota, antao hionjo mb’e Tsione, mb’am’ Iehovà Andrianañaharen-tika mb’eo.
For there will be a day on which the guardians on mount Ephraim will cry out: ‘Arise! And let us ascend on Zion to the Lord our God!’”
7 Fa hoe t’Iehovà: Misabòa an-kafaleañe r’Iakobe, vaho mikoiha añivo o beim-pifeheañeo; Mitaroña, mandrengea, le ano ty hoe: Ry Iehovà, rombaho ondati’oo, i sehanga’ Israeley.
For thus says the Lord: “Exult in the joy of Jacob, and neigh before the head of the Gentiles. Shout, and sing, and say: ‘O Lord, save your people, the remnant of Israel!’
8 Oniño t’ie hendeseko boak’an-tane avaratse añe, hatontoko boak’añ’olo’ ty tane toy, rekets’ o goao naho o kepekeo, o savereñe rekets’ ana’eo, vaho o mitsongo fa hisamakeo— valobohòke jabajaba ty himpoly mb’atoy.
Behold, I will lead them from the land of the north, and I will gather them from the ends of the earth. Among them will be the blind and the lame, she who is with child, together with she who is giving birth: a great assembly returning to this place.
9 Ie homb’ atoy an-kololoike, le hiaoloako an-kohò; hampombako mb’añolon-torahañe mikararake mb’eo, an-dalam-bantañe tsy hahatsikapy; amy te rae’ Israele iraho, naho tañoloñoloñako t’i Efraime.
They will approach with weeping. And I will lead them back with mercy. And I will lead them through the torrents of water, by an upright way, and they will not stumble in it. For I have become Father to Israel, and Ephraim is my firstborn.”
10 Mahajanjiña ty tsara’ Iehovà, ry fifeheañeo, vaho tseizo amo tokonose tsietoitaneo ty hoe: I nampivarakaike Israeley ro manontoñe aze, naho mañotroñ’aze manahake ty fañotroña’ ty mpiarake i lia-rai’ey.
Listen to the word of the Lord, O Gentiles, and announce it amid the islands that are far away, and say: “Whoever has scattered Israel will gather him, and he will guard him as a shepherd guards his flock.”
11 Amy te vinili’ Iehovà ty fiai’Iakobe, naho jineba’e am-pità’ i maozatse te ama’ey.
For the Lord has redeemed Jacob, and he has freed him from the hand of one more powerful.
12 Aa le homb’ atoy iereo hisabo an-kaboa’ i Tsione ey, naho hiloeloe ami’ty hasoa’ Iehovà; ami’ty mahakama, naho ami’ty divay naho ami’ty menake, ami’ty tora’ o lia-raike naho mpirai-trokeo; le ho goloboñe soa tondrake ty fiai’ iareo, vaho tsy hinike ka.
And they will arrive and give praise on Mount Zion. And they will flow together, to the good things of the Lord, over grain, and wine, and oil, and the offspring of cattle and herds. And their soul will be like an irrigated garden, and they will no longer be hungry.
13 Ie amy zay, hisalale an-tsinjake ty somondrara, naho hitraok’ ami’ty bey ty ajalahy; ie hafoteko ho hafaleañe ty fioremeña’ iareo, naho hohoñeko, vaho ho limbezeko firebehañe ty fihontofa’ iareo.
Then the virgin will rejoice with singing, the young and the old together, and I will turn their mourning into gladness, and I will console them and gladden them after their sorrow.
14 Ho liporeko solike ty arofo’ o mpisoroñeo, vaho hahaeneñe ondatikoo o hasoakoo, hoe t’Iehovà.
And I will inebriate the soul of the priests with fatness, and my people will be filled with my good things, says the Lord.”
15 Hoe t’Iehovà: Inay ty fiarañanañañe e Ramà añe, fangololoihañe naho firovetañ’afero, Angoihoie’ i Rakele o amori’eo; tsy mete ohoñen-dre ty amo ana’eo, amy t’ie tsy eo.
Thus says the Lord: “A voice has been heard on high: of lamentation, mourning, and weeping; of Rachel crying for her sons and refusing to be consoled over them, because they are not.”
16 Hoe t’Iehovà: Kalaño ty fiarañanaña’o tsy hirovetse, naho o fihaino’oo tsy hitsirike ranomaso; fa ho tambezañe ty fitromaha’o, hoe t’Iehovà; vaho himpoly boak’ an-tane’ i rafelahiy iereo.
Thus says the Lord: “Let your voice cease from crying and your eyes from tears. For there is a reward for your work, says the Lord. And they will return from the land of the enemy.
17 Aman-ko tamaeñe o herone’oo, hoe t’Iehovà; le himpoly an-tane’ iareo o ana’ areoo.
And there is hope for your very end, says the Lord. And the sons will return to their own borders.
18 Toe tsinanoko ty fikoaiha’ i Efraime: Fa linafa’o, toe finiake hoe dronga tsy folake, ampitoliho iraho le ho tafa-tolike, amy te Ihe ro Iehovà Andrianañahareko.
Listening, I heard Ephraim going into captivity: ‘You have chastised me, and I was instructed, like a young untamed bull. Convert me, and I shall be converted. For you are the Lord my God.
19 Aa ie nampitolihen-draho le nisoloho, ie nanaren-draho le pinaoko ty feko; nisalatse, eka nimeñatse, amy te tsy nivavèko ty injen-katorako.
For after you converted me, I did penance. And after you revealed to me, I struck my thigh. I am confounded and ashamed. For I have endured the disgrace of my youth.’
20 Anak’isoko hao t’i Efraime? Ajaja nahasinda hao re? Fa beteke mivolañe aze iraho, le vata’e tiahiko; mikoritoke ho aze ty troko, vaho ho tretrezeko, hoe t’Iehovà.
Certainly, Ephraim is an honorable son to me; surely, he is a tender child. For I will still remember him, as in the time when I first spoke about him. Because my heart is stirred up over him, surely I will take pity on him, says the Lord.
21 Añoreño fanoroañe, ampijadoño bodam-pamantarañe; reketo mb’amy damokey ty arofo’o, i lalañe nomba’o mb’eoy; mimpolia ry somondrara’ Israele, mibaliha mb’amo rova’o retoañe.
Establish a watchtower for yourself. Place yourself in bitterness. Direct your heart into the upright way, in which you used to walk. Return, return, O virgin of Israel, to these your cities!
22 Ampara’ te ombia t’ie hiamboho, ry anak’ampela midisa-volio? Fa namboatse raha vao an-tane atoy t’Iehovà: Ho tsikarikarie’ ty ampela ty lahilahy.
How long will you be absorbed in delights, O wandering daughter? For the Lord has created something new upon the earth: a woman will encompass a man.”
23 Hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy, t’i Andrianañahare’ Israele: Mbe hindrai’ iareo an-tane’ Iehodà ao naho amo rova’eo, ie hafoteko ty fandrohizañe iareo, ty saontsy manao ty hoe: Hitahy azo t’Iehovà, ry kivohon-kavantañañe, ry vohin-kamasiñañe.
Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: “Still they will speak this word in the land of Judah, and in its cities, when I will convert their captivity: ‘May the Lord bless you, the beauty of justice, the holy mountain.’
24 Songa hitrao-pimoneñe ao t’Iehodà, vaho amo rova’eo o mpitongio naho o mpiarake lia-raikeo.
And they will live in it: Judah together with all its cities, the farmer and those who drive the flocks.
25 Fa hanjañeko ty fañova mokotse le hampieneñeko ty sandry mitìke.
For I have inebriated the weary soul, and I have satisfied every hungry soul.
26 Nitsekak’ amy zao iraho le nañente, vaho nimamy amako i firoroakoy.
Over this, I was awakened, as if from a deep sleep. And I saw, and my sleep became sweet to me.
27 Inao! ho tondroke ty andro, hoe t’Iehovà, te ho tongiseko ami’ty tabiri’ ondaty naho ami’ty tabirin-kare ty anjomba’ Israele naho Iehodà.
Behold, the days are approaching, says the Lord, when I will sow the house of Israel and the house of Judah with the offspring of men and with the offspring of cattle.
28 Ie amy zao, hambañe amy nisarieko iareo ho voroteñe naho harotsake vaho ho silofeñey; ty hisarieko iareo hamboareñe naho hamboleñe, hoe t’Iehovà.
And just as I have watched over them, so that I may root up, and tear down, and scatter, and destroy, and afflict, so will I watch over them, so that I may build and plant them, says the Lord.
29 Tsy ho saontsie’ iereo ka amy andro zay te Nikama valoboke mìtsa ty roae, vaho mangitsy ty nife’ o ana’eo.
In those days, they will no longer say: ‘The fathers ate a bitter grape, and the teeth of the sons have been affected.’
30 F’ie fonga hampihomahe’ o hakeo’eo; ze ondaty mikama valoboke mìtsa, le o famotsi’eo ty hangìtsy.
Instead, each one will die for his own iniquity. Each man who will have eaten a bitter grape, his own teeth will be affected.
31 Inao, ho tondroke ty andro, hoe t’Iehovà te hanoeko fañina vao amy anjomba’ Israeley naho i anjomba’ Iehodày;
Behold, the days are approaching, says the Lord, when I will form a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah,
32 tsy hanahake i fañina nilahareko an-droae’ iareo tañ’andro nitanako am-pitàñe nañakarako iareo an-tane Mitsraimey; ie nivalik’ amy fañinakoy, ndra t’ie nitañanjomba’ iareo, hoe t’Iehovà.
not according to the covenant which I made with their fathers, in the day when I took them by the hand, so as to lead them away from the land of Egypt, the covenant which they nullified, though I was the ruler over them, says the Lord.
33 Fe zao ty fañina hanoeko amy anjomba’ Israeley naho fa modo i andro rezay, hoe t’Iehovà, hapoko añ’ova’ iareo ao ty Hàke le ho sokireko añ’arofo’ iareo ao; naho ho Andrianañahare’ iareo iraho vaho h’ondatiko iereo;
But this will be the covenant that I will form with the house of Israel, after those days, says the Lord: I will give my law to their inner most being, and I will write it upon their heart. And I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
34 tsy songa hifañoke ka ondatio naho o rañe’eo ami’ty hoe: Mahafohina Iehovà fa hene hahafohiñe ahy, mifotots’ an-tsitso’e pak’ ami’ty bey hoe t’Iehovà; fa hapoko ty tahi’ iareo le tsy ho tiahiko ka o hakeo’ iareoo.
And they will no longer teach, a man his neighbor, and a man his brother, saying: ‘Know the Lord.’ For all will know me, from the littlest of them even to the greatest, says the Lord. For I will forgive their iniquity, and I will no longer remember their sin.
35 Hoe t’Iehovà, mpanolotse i àndroy hañazava ty andro, naho o fepè’ i volañey vaho o vasiañeoo ho failo amo haleñeo, i mpitrobo i riakey, hampitroñañe o onjao, Iehovà’ i Màroy ty tahina’e.
Thus says the Lord, who gives the sun as the light of the day, who puts the moon and the stars in order as the light of the night, who stirs up the sea and makes its waves roar: the Lord of hosts is his name.
36 Naho mienga tsy ho añatrefako i fañè rezay, hoe t’Iehovà, le hijihetse tsy ho fifeheañe aoloko eo ka ty tiri’ Israele.
If these laws fail in my sight, says the Lord, then the offspring of Israel will also fail, so that they will not be a people in my sight for all time.”
37 Hoe t’Iehovà: Naho lefe zeheñe i likerañey, naho mete tsikaraheñe o mananta’ ty tane toio, izay vaho haitoako ka ze hene tiri’ Israele ty amo fonga sata’ iareoo, hoe t’Iehovà.
Thus says the Lord: “If the heavens above are able to be measured, and if the foundations of the earth beneath can be examined, I also will cast aside all the offspring of Israel, because of all that they have done, says the Lord.
38 Inao te ho tondroke ty andro, hoe t’Iehovà, te hamboareñe ho a Iehovà i rovay boak’ am-pitalakesañ’abo i Kanànele, pak’ an-dalambein-kotsokey.
Behold, the days are approaching, says the Lord, when a city will be built for the Lord from the tower of Hananel, even to the Gate of the Corner;
39 Mbore ho kozozoteñe mahity mb’an- kaboa’ i Garebe i taly fanjeheañey, vaho hiolake mb’e Goà mb’eo.
and the measuring line will go on even further in his sight, over the hill of Gareb, and it will encircle Goah
40 Le havaheñe am’ Iehovà i hene vavatanen-dolo naho lavenokey, naho o teteke iaby pak’ an-toraha’ i Kidroney mb’eo, pak’ an-kotso’ i lalambein-tsoavala mianiñanañeio; ie tsy hombotañe ka, tsy hafetsake ambane nainai’e kitro añ’afe’e.
and the entire Valley of dead bodies and ashes, and the entire region of death, even to the torrent of Kedron, and to the corner of the Horse Gate to the east. All this will be the holy place of the Lord. It will not be rooted up, and it will not be torn down, anymore, forever.”
