< Jeremia 31 >

1 Amy andro zay, hoe t’Iehovà, le ho Andrianañahare’ ze hene fifokoa’ Israele iraho, vaho h’ondatiko iereo.
“At that time,” a declaration of YHWH, “I am the God of all families of Israel, And they are 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 said YHWH: “A people remaining from the sword Have found grace in the wilderness When Israel went to find 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.
YHWH has appeared to me from afar, “I have loved you with perpetual love, Therefore I have drawn you [with] kindness.
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.
I build you again, And you have been built, O virgin of Israel, You put on your tambourines again, And have gone out in the chorus of the playful.
5 Hambole vahe amo vohi’ i Someroneo indraike nahareo; hitongy o mpitongio, vaho hifale t’ie mahatoly sabo.
You plant vineyards in mountains of Samaria again, Planters have planted, and made common.
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 is a day, Watchmen have cried on Mount Ephraim, Rise, and we go up to Zion, to our God YHWH”;
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 said YHWH: “Sing [with] joy for Jacob, And cry aloud at the head of the nations, Sound, praise, and say, Save, O YHWH, 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 am bringing them in from the north country, And have gathered them from the sides of the earth, Blind and lame [are] among them, Conceiving and travailing one—together, A great assembly—they return here.
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 come in with weeping, And I bring them with supplications, I cause them to go to streams of waters, In a right way—they do not stumble in it, For I have been a Father to Israel, And Ephraim—he [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.
Hear a word of YHWH, O nations, And declare among the far off in the islands, and say: He who is scattering Israel gathers him, And has kept His flock as a shepherd,
11 Amy te vinili’ Iehovà ty fiai’Iakobe, naho jineba’e am-pità’ i maozatse te ama’ey.
For YHWH has ransomed Jacob, And redeemed him from a hand stronger than he.
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 have come in, And have sung in the high place of Zion, And flowed to the goodness of YHWH, For wheat, and for new wine, and for oil, And for the young of the flock and herd, And their soul has been as a watered garden, And they do not add to grieve anymore.
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 a virgin rejoices in a chorus, Both young men and old men—together, And I have turned their mourning to joy, And have comforted them, And gladdened them above their sorrow,
14 Ho liporeko solike ty arofo’ o mpisoroñeo, vaho hahaeneñe ondatikoo o hasoakoo, hoe t’Iehovà.
And satisfied the soul of the priests [with] fatness, And My people are satisfied with My goodness,” A declaration of YHWH.
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 said YHWH: “A voice is heard in Ramah, Wailing [and] the weeping of bitterness, Rachel is weeping for her sons, She has refused to be comforted for her sons, 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 said YHWH: “Withhold your voice from weeping, and your eyes from tears, For there is a reward for your work,” A declaration of YHWH, “And they have turned back 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 latter end,” A declaration of YHWH, “And the sons have turned back [to] their border.
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.
I have surely heard Ephraim bemoaning himself, You have disciplined me, And I am disciplined, as a heifer [that is] not taught, Turn me back, and I turn back, For You [are] my God YHWH.
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 my turning back I regretted, And after my being instructed I struck on the thigh, I have been ashamed, I have also blushed, For I have borne the reproach 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.
Is Ephraim a precious son to Me? A child of delights? For since My speaking against him, I still thoroughly remember him, Therefore My bowels have been moved for him, I love him greatly,” A declaration of YHWH.
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.
“Set up signs for yourself, Make heaps for yourself, Set your heart to the highway, the way you went, Turn back, O virgin of Israel, Turn back to these cities of yours.
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.
Until when do you withdraw yourself, O backsliding daughter? For YHWH has prepared a new thing in the land, Woman surrounds 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 said YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel: “Still they say this word in the land of Judah, And in its cities, In My turning back [to] their captivity, YHWH blesses you, habitation of righteousness, Mountain of holiness.
24 Songa hitrao-pimoneñe ao t’Iehodà, vaho amo rova’eo o mpitongio naho o mpiarake lia-raikeo.
And farmers have dwelt in Judah, And in all its cities together, And they have journeyed in order.
25 Fa hanjañeko ty fañova mokotse le hampieneñeko ty sandry mitìke.
For I have satiated the weary soul, And I have filled every grieved soul.”
26 Nitsekak’ amy zao iraho le nañente, vaho nimamy amako i firoroakoy.
On this I have awoken, and I behold, and my sleep has been 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, days are coming,” A declaration of YHWH, “And I have sown the house of Israel, And the house of Judah, With seed of man and seed of beast.
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 it has been, as I watched over them to pluck up, And to break down, and to throw down, And to destroy, and to afflict; So I watch over them to build, and to plant,” A declaration of YHWH.
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 no longer say: Fathers have eaten unripe fruit, And the sons’ teeth are blunted.
30 F’ie fonga hampihomahe’ o hakeo’eo; ze ondaty mikama valoboke mìtsa, le o famotsi’eo ty hangìtsy.
But—each dies for his own iniquity, Every man who is eating the unripe fruit, His teeth are blunted.
31 Inao, ho tondroke ty andro, hoe t’Iehovà te hanoeko fañina vao amy anjomba’ Israeley naho i anjomba’ Iehodày;
Behold, days are coming,” A declaration of YHWH, “And I have made 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 like the covenant that I made with their fathers, In the day of My laying hold on their hand, To bring them out of the land of Egypt, In that they made My covenant void, And I ruled over them,” A declaration of YHWH.
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;
“For this [is] the covenant that I make, With the house of Israel, after those days,” A declaration of YHWH, “I have given My law in their inward part, And I write it on their heart, And I have been their God, And they are 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 do not teach anymore Each his neighbor, and each his brother, Saying, Know YHWH, For they all know Me, from their least to their greatest,” A declaration of YHWH; “For I pardon their iniquity, And I make no more mention of 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 said YHWH, Who is giving the sun for a light by day, The statutes of moon and stars for a light by night, Quieting the sea when its billows roar, YHWH 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 statutes depart from before Me,” A declaration of YHWH, “Even the seed of Israel ceases From being a nation before Me [for] all the days.”
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 said YHWH: “If the heavens above can be measured, And the foundations of earth searched below, Even I kick against all the seed of Israel, For all that they have done,” A declaration of YHWH.
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, days [are coming],” A declaration of YHWH, “And the city has been built for YHWH, From the Tower of Hananeel to the Corner Gate.
39 Mbore ho kozozoteñe mahity mb’an- kaboa’ i Garebe i taly fanjeheañey, vaho hiolake mb’e Goà mb’eo.
And the measuring line has gone out again before it, over the height of Gareb, And it has gone around to 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 all the valley of the carcasses and of the ashes, And all the fields to the Brook of Kidron, To the corner of the Horse Gate eastward, [Are] holy to YHWH, It is not plucked up, Nor is it thrown down anymore for all time!”
