Jeremia 40
1 Ty tsara niheo am’Iirmeà boak’ am’ Iehovà, ie navotso’ i Nebozaradane mpifehem-pigaritse e Ramà añe, ie fa nasese’e an-drohy mindre amo mirohy boak’ Ierosalaime naho Iehodào ho mb’ ampandrohizañe e Bavele añe.
And the word of the Lord came to Jeremias the second time, when he was yet bound in the court of the prison, saying,
2 Natola’ i mpifehe mpigaritsey t’Iirmeà vaho hoe ty asa’e ama’e: Iehovà Andrianañahare’o ty nitsara o hankàñe zao ami’ty toetse toy;
Thus says the Lord, who made the earth and formed it, to establish it; the Lord is his name;
3 le ie henanekeo, fa nihenefa’ Iehovà i tsinara’ey amy te nandilatse am’ Iehovà nahareo vaho tsy hinao’ areo ty fiarañanaña’e. Toly ndra nifetsake i nitsaraeñey.
Cry to me, and I will answer you, and I will declare to you great and mighty things, which you know not.
4 F’ie henaneo, Ingo te hahako ama’o aniany o rohy am-pità’oo. Aa ie te hindre lia amako mbe Bavele mb’eo, mihavia vaho hatràko soa, f’ie tsy te hindre amako mb’e Bavele añe le apoho. Inge, añatrefa’o eo o tane iabio; mañaveloa amy ze atao’o ho soa naho mahity.
For thus says the Lord concerning the houses of this city, and concerning the houses of the king of Juda, which have been pulled down for mounds and fortifications,
5 Ie mbe tsy nitolike, le hoe re, Molia amy Gedalia ana’ i Ahikame ana’ i Safan; tinendre’ i mpanjaka’ i Baveley ho mpifeleke o rova’ Iehodaoy, vaho mimoneña ama’e, am’ondatio; he mañaveloa mb’amy ze ereñere’o hombañe. Aa le tinolo’ i mpifehe mpigaritsey anjara mahakama naho ravoravo vaho nampomba’e mb’eo.
to fight against the Chaldeans, and to fill it with the corpses of men, whom I struck in mine anger and my wrath, and turned away my face from them, for all their wickedness:
6 Aa le nimb’amy Gedelia ana’ i Ahikame e Mitspà añe re vaho nitrao-pimoneñe am’ondaty nengañe an-taneo.
Behold, I bring upon her healing and cure, and I will show [myself] to them, and will heal her, and make both peace and security.
7 Ie songa jinanji’ o mpiaolon-dahindefoñe am-patrambeio, ie naho o mpiama’eo, te tinendre’ i mpanjaka’ i Baveley t’i Gedalia ana’ i Ahikame ho mpifeleke i taney, naho nampifeheañe aze ondatio naho o rakembao vaho o ajajao; o loho rarake amy taney tsy nasese mb’e Bavele mb’eoo,
And I will turn the captivity of Juda, and the captivity of Israel, and will build them, even as before.
8 le nimb’ amy Gedalia e Mitspà añe iereo rekets’ Ismaele ana’ i Netania, naho Iohanane naho Ionatane sindre ana’ i Karea, i Seraia ana’ i Tankomete, o ana’ i Ofaý nte-Netofào naho Iezania ana’ty nte-Maakà, ie vaho ondati’iareoo.
And I will cleanse them from all their iniquities, whereby they have sinned against me, and will not remember their sins, whereby they have sinned against me, and revolted from me.
9 Le nanao fanta am’ iereo naho amo lahin-defo’eo t’i Gedalia ana’ i Ahikame ana’ i Safane, ami’ty hoe, Ko ihembaña’ areo ty mitoroñe o nte-Kasdio. Imoneño i taney naho toroño ty mpanjaka’ i Bavele, le ho soa tahy.
And it shall be for joy and praise, and for glory to all the people of the earth, who shall hear all the good that I will do: and they shall fear and be provoked for all the good things and for all the peace which I will bring upon them.
10 Aa naho izaho, le himoneñe e Mitspà hijohañe añatrefa’ o nte-Kasdy hivotrak’ aman-tikañ’ atoio; f’inahareo: anontono divay naho ty vokats’ asotry naho menake, le ahajao an-tsajoa’ areo ao, vaho imoneño o rova felehe’ areoo.
Thus says the Lord; There shall yet be heard in this place, of which you say, it is destitute of men and cattle, in the cities of Juda, and in the streets of Jerusalem, [the places] that have been made desolate for lack of men and cattle,
11 Manahake izay ka, ie jinanji’ o nte-Iehodà e Amone naho Edomeo naho o an-tane ila’eo te nampipoke honka’e e Iehodà ao ty mpanjaka’ i Bavele vaho tinendre’e t’i Gedalia ana’ i Ahikame, ana’ i Safane ho mpifelek’ iareo,
the voice of gladness, and the voice of joy, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, the voice of men saying, Give thanks to the Lord Almighty: for the Lord is good; for his mercy [endures] fore ever: and they shall bring gifts into the house of the Lord; for I will turn all the captivity of that land as before, said the Lord.
12 le nimpoly boak’ amo fonga tane niparatsiaha’ iareoo mb’an-tane’ Iehodà mb’ amy Gedalia e Mitspà ao ze hene nte Iehoda, le nanontoñe divay vaho vokats’ asara tsifotofoto.
Thus says the Lord of hosts; There shall yet be in this place, that is desert for lack of man and beast, in all the cities thereof, resting-places for shepherds causing their flocks to lie down.
13 Niheo mb’amy Gedalia e Mitspà mb’eo t’Iohanane ana’ i Karea naho ze hene mpiaolon-dahin-defo an-kaloke,
In the cities of the hill country, and in the cities of the valley, and in the cities of the south, and in the land of Benjamin, and in the [cities] round about Jerusalem, and in the cities of Juda, flocks shall yet pass under the hand of him that numbers [them], says the Lord.
14 nanao ama’e ty hoe, Tsy fohi’o hao te nafanto’ i Baalise mpanjaka’ o nte-Amoneo t’Ismaele ana’ i Netania hañoho-doza ama’o? F’ie tsy niantofa’ i Gedalia ana’ i Ahikame.
15 Aa le natola’ Iohanane ana’ i Karea t’i Gedalia e Mitspà ao, le nanoe’e ty hoe, Ehe, angao handenàko mb’am’ Ismaele ana’ i Netania mb’eo hamono aze, fa tsy ho fohi’ ondaty. Ino ty hañohofa’e loza ami’ty fiai’o? hampiparaitahañe o hene nte-Iehodao, toe ho mongotse ty sehanga’ Iehodà.
16 Fe hoe t’i Gedelia ana’ i Ahikame am’ Iehonane ana’ i Karea, Ko manao zao, ihe andañira’o Ismaele.
