Jeremia 44
1 Ty tsara niheo am’ Iirmeà ty amo nte-Iehodà iaby nañialo an-tane Mitsraimeo, o nimoneñe e Migdole naho e Takpanese naho e Nofe vaho an-tane’ i Patroseo, nanao ty hoe:
The word which came to Jeremiah about all the Jews who were living in the land of Egypt, in Migdol and at Tahpanhes and at Noph and in the country of Pathros, saying,
2 Hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy, i Andrianañahare’ Israeley, Fa niisa’ areo i fonga hankàñe nafetsako am’ Ierosalaime naho amo hene rova’ Iehodao; le heheke t’ie mangoakoake henaneo naho tsy imoneña’ ondaty,
The Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: You have seen all the evil which I have sent on Jerusalem and on all the towns of Judah; and now, this day they are waste and unpeopled;
3 ty amy halò-tsereke nanoe’ iereo hampibosek’ ahy, ie niheo mb’amo ndrahare ila’eo, nañenga naho nitoroñe iareo, o tsy nifohi’ iereoo; ie ndra nahareo, ndra o roae’ areoo;
Because of the evil which they have done, moving me to wrath by burning perfumes in worship to other gods, who were not their gods or yours or the gods of their fathers.
4 ndra te nampihitrifeko ama’ areo o mpitoky mpitoroko iabio nañampitso t’ie niraheñe ninday ty hoe: Ehe, ko anoe’ areo o raha tiva hejekoo.
And I sent all my servants the prophets to you, getting up early and sending them, saying, Do not do this disgusting thing which is hated by me.
5 F’ie tsy nañaoñe, tsy nanokilan-dravembia, tsy nibalintoa amo hatsivokarañeo, hijihera’ iareo ty fañembohañe aman-drahare ila’e.
But they gave no attention, and their ears were not open so that they might be turned from their evil-doing and from burning perfume to other gods.
6 Aa le nidoandoañe ty fiforoforoan-kabosehako, vaho namorototo an-drova’ Iehodà ao naho an-damo’ Ierosalaime ey, ampara’ t’ie nangoakoake naho kafoake, vaho ie henaneo.
Because of this, my passion and my wrath were let loose, burning in the towns of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem; and they are waste and unpeopled as at this day.
7 Aa le hoe t’Iehovà, t’i Andrianañahare’ i màroy, t’i Andrianañahare’ Israele; Akore ty anoe’ areo ty haloloañe jabajaba zao hampiantoa’ areo fiaiñe hañitoa’ areo am’ Iehodà ze ondaty naho rakemba, ajaja naho anak’ ajaja minono, soa te leo raike tsy ho sisañe ama’ areo;
So now, the Lord, the God of armies, the God of Israel, has said, Why are you doing this great evil against yourselves, causing every man and woman, little child and baby at the breast among you in Judah to be cut off till not one is still living;
8 amy te sinigi’ areo iraho amo satam-pità’ areoo, ty fañenga’ areo aman-drahare ila’e an-tane Mitsraime ao, i nisesea’ areoy; soa t’ie haitoañe vaho ho fokom-patse naho titse amo kilakila’ ondati’ ty tane toio?
Moving me to wrath with the work of your hands, burning perfumes to other gods in the land of Egypt, where you have gone to make a place for yourselves, so that you may become a curse and a name of shame among all the nations of the earth?
9 Nihaliño’ areo hao ty fitoloñan-dratin-droae’ areo naho ty sata-rati’ o mpanjaka’ Iehodào naho ty sata-rati’ o vali’eo, naho ty sata-rati’ areo naho ty sata-ratin-tañanjomba’ areo, o nanoe’ iereo an-tane’ Iehodà ao naho an-dala’ Ierosalaimeo?
Have you no memory of the evil-doing of your fathers, and the evil-doing of the kings of Judah, and the evil-doing of their wives, and the evil which you yourselves have done, and the evil which your wives have done, in the land of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?
10 Mboe tsy nireke pake henane, mbore tsy mañeveñe, tsy mañavelo an-Kàke ndra amo fañè najadoko aolo’ areo, añatrefan-droae’ areo.
Even to this day their hearts are not broken, and they have no fear, and have not gone in the way of my law or of my rules which I gave to you and to your fathers.
11 Aa le hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy, t’i Andrianañahare’ Israele; Inao te hatreatrèko ama’ areo ty tareheko ho ami’ty hankàñe, le fonga haitoako t’Iehodà;
So this is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: See, my face will be turned against you for evil, for the cutting off of all Judah;
12 naho haitoako ty sehanga’ Iehodà niatre-daharañe mbe Mitsraime mb’etoy hitaveañe, naho songa ho mongoreñe, toe hikoromak’ an-tane Mitsraime atoa nahareo, ho zevoñem-pibara naho ty hasalikoañe, fonga hivetrake, ty kede naho ty bey, ami’ty mesolava naho ty kerè; le ho fatse, naho fampangebahebahañe naho fanirañe vaho fañinjeañe.
And I will take the last of Judah, whose minds are fixed on going into the land of Egypt and stopping there, and they will all come to their end, falling in the land of Egypt by the sword and by being short of food and by disease; death will overtake them, from the least to the greatest, death by the sword and by need of food: they will become an oath and a cause of wonder and a curse and a name of shame.
13 Amy te ho liloveko o mañialo an-tane Mitsraimeo, manahake ty nandilovako Ierosalaime, ami’ty fibara naho ty kerè vaho ty angorosy,
For I will send punishment on those who are living in the land of Egypt, as I have sent punishment on Jerusalem, by the sword and by need of food and by disease:
14 leo raike tsy hipotatsake ndra hahatambeloñe amo sehanga’ Iehodà nitaveañe mb’ an-tane Mitsraime hañialo añeo vaho himpoly mb’an-tane’ Iehodà añe, mb’amy fañiria’ iareoy; amy te tsy eo ty himpoly añe naho tsy o tsy ampe mahapolititseo avao.
So that not one of the rest of Judah, who have gone into the land of Egypt and are living there, will get away or keep his life, to come back to the land of Judah where they are hoping to come back and be living again: for not one will come back, but only those who are able to get away.
15 Aa le nanoiñe am’ Iirmeà ondaty nahafohiñe te nañenga amo ‘ndrahare ila’eo o vali’eoo naho o rakemba nizorazora eio naho i valobohòkey vaho ze hene ondaty nimoneñe an-tane Mitsraime e Patrose ao, ami’ty hoe,
Then all the men who had knowledge that their wives were burning perfumes to other gods, and all the women who were present, a great meeting, answering Jeremiah, said,
16 I tsara nisaontsie’o ama’ay ami’ty tahina’ Iehovày: Tsy hañaoñe azo zahay.
As for the word which you have said to us in the name of the Lord, we will not give ear to you.
17 Fa tsy mete tsy hanoe’ay ze fonga enta’ nakare’ o vava’aio, ty hañemboke amy mpanjaka-ampelan-dikerañey, naho ty hampidoañañe enga-rano, fa izay ty sata’ay, zahay naho o roae’aio, o mpanjaka’aio, o roandria’aio an-tane’ Iehodà naho an-dala’ Ierosalaime ao; amy t’ie nienen-kaneñe henane zay, vaho nijangañe, vaho tsy nizo hankàñe.
But we will certainly do every word which has gone out of our mouths, burning perfumes to the queen of heaven and draining out drink offerings to her as we did, we and our fathers and our kings and our rulers, in the towns of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem: for then we had food enough and did well and saw no evil.
18 Fe mifototse ami’ty nampipoha’ay ty fañengañe amy mpanjaka ampelan-dikerañey, naho ty fampidoaña’ay enga rano, le nipo-vara, vaho nizamanem-pibara naho ty kerè.
But from the time when we gave up burning perfumes to the queen of heaven and draining out drink offerings to her, we have been in need of all things, and have been wasted by the sword and by need of food.
19 Aa vaho zahay avao hao ty mañenga amy mpanjakan-dikerañey naho mañiliñe enga-rano ama’e? Mamboatse mofomamy ami’ty vinta’e naho mampidoañe engan-drano ama’e hao zahay naho tsy eo valy?
And the women said, When we were burning perfumes to the queen of heaven and draining out drink offerings to her, did we make cakes in her image and give her our drink offerings without the knowledge of our husbands?
20 Aa le hoe t’Iirmeà am’ondaty iabio, amo lahilahio naho amo rakembao naho amy ze fonga ondaty nanoiñe aze amy hoe zay:
Then Jeremiah said to all the people, to the men and women and all the people who had given him that answer,
21 O tsotse nañemboha’ areo an-drova’ Iehodà naho an-dala’ Ierosalaimeo, inahareo naho o rae’ areoo naho o mpanjaka’ areoo naho o roandria’ areoo naho ondati’ i taneio; tsy niarofoana’ Iehovà hao, tsy nizilik’ am-pitsakorea’e ao hao?
The perfumes which you have been burning in the towns of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, you and your fathers and your kings and your rulers and the people of the land, had the Lord no memory of them, and did he not keep them in mind?
22 Ampara te tsy nileo’ Iehovà o sata-rati’ areoo, naho o raha tiva nanoe’ areoo; toly ndra ninjare kòake ty tane’ areo, toe halatsañe, vaho fatse, tsy amam-pimoneñe pake henaneo.
And the Lord was no longer able to put up with the evil of your doings and the disgusting things you did; and because of this your land has become a waste and a cause of wonder and a curse, with no one living in it, as at this day.
23 I fañenga’ areo irezay, o hakeo’ areo am’ Iehovào, t’ie tsy nañaoñe ty fiarañanaña’ Iehovà, te tsy nañavelo an-Kàke, ndra amo fañè’eo, ndra amo fitaroña’eo: ie ty nifetsaha’ o hekoheko zao ama’ areo henaneo.
Because you have been burning perfumes, and sinning against the Lord, and have not given ear to the voice of the Lord, or gone in the way of his law or his rules or his orders; for this reason this evil has come on you, as it is today.
24 Tinovo’ Iirmeà ty hoe am’ ondaty iabio, naho amo rakemba iabio: Janjiño ty tsara’ Iehovà, ry hene Iehodà an-tane’ Mitsraime atoio:
Further, Jeremiah said to all the people and all the women, Give ear to the word of the Lord, all those of Judah who are living in Egypt:
25 Hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy, t’i Andrianañahare’ Israele: Fonga nisaontsy am-palie nahareo naho o tañanjomba’ areoo vaho nihenefem-pità’ areo ami’ty hoe, Toe hanoe’ay o fanta nititihe’aio naho hañenga amy mpanjaka-ampelan-dikerañey, naho hañily enga rano ama’e; Toe hajado’ areo o nifantà’ areoo vaho ho henefe’ areo o fititiha’ areoo.
This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: You women have said with your mouths, and with your hands you have done what you said, We will certainly give effect to the oaths we have made, to have perfumes burned to the queen of heaven and drink offerings drained out to her: then give effect to your oaths and do them.
26 Ehe tsendreño ty tsara’ Iehovà, ry Iehodà mpañialo e Mitsraime atoañ’ iabio; Ingo fa nifanta amy añarako ra’elahiy iraho, hoe t’Iehovà, te le lia’e tsy ho toñoneñe am-palie’ ondaty nte-Iehodà an-tane Mitsraime atoao ty añarako ami’ty hoe, Kanao veloñe t’i Talè Iehovà.
And now give ear to the word of the Lord, all you of Judah who are living in the land of Egypt: Truly, I have taken an oath by my great name, says the Lord, that my name is no longer to be named in the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying, By the life of the Lord God.
27 Inao! haratiañe ty añambenako iareo, fa tsy fañasoàñe; vaho fonga ho mongore’ ty fibara naho ty hasalikoañe ze lahilahi’ Iehodà an-tane’ Mitsraime atoy, ampara’ te tsy aman-tsehanga’e.
See, I am watching over them for evil and not for good: all the men of Judah who are in the land of Egypt will be wasted by the sword and by need of food till there is an end of them.
28 Fe hipolititse amy fibaray ty honka’e tsy ampe boak’an-tane Mitsraime atoa homb’an-tane’ Iehodà mb’eo, soa te ho fohi’ i hengaha’ Iehodà nivotrak’ an-tane Mitsraime hañialoa’ey, te, ty tsara’ ia ty ho to, ke ty ahy he ty a iareo?
And those who get away safe from the sword will come back from the land of Egypt to the land of Judah, a very small number; and all the rest of Judah, who have gone into the land of Egypt and are living there, will see whose word has effect, mine or theirs.
29 Le inao, ty viloñe ama’ areo, hoe t’Iehovà, te toe hitilihako an-toetse atoy, hahafohina’ areo te vata’e hijadoñe ama’ areo ho ami’ty hankàñe o entakoo:
And this will be the sign to you, says the Lord, that I will give you punishment in this place, so that you may see that my words will certainly have effect against you for evil:
30 fa hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà: Ingo te hatoloko am-pità’ o rafelahi’eo naho am-pità’ o mipay ty fiai’eo t’i Parò-Kofrà mpanjaka’ i Mitsraime, hambañ’ amy nanolorako i Tsidkia, mpanjaka’ Iehodà, am-pita’ i Nebokadnetsare mpanjaka’ i Bavele, rafalahi’e nipay t’y fiai’e.
The Lord has said, See, I will give up Pharaoh Hophra, king of Egypt, into the hands of those who are fighting against him and desiring to take his life, as I gave Zedekiah, king of Judah, into the hands of Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, his hater, who had designs against his life.
