Jeremia 9
1 Ee t’ie ni-rano ty lohako, naho niganaganake o masokoo, hirovetako handro an-kaleñe o nizamaneñe amy anak’ ampela’ ondatikoy.
Oh, that mine head were full of water and mine eyes a fountaine of teares, that I might weepe day and night for the slayne of the daughter of my people.
2 Ee te tam-babangoañe añe iraho, an-kialo’ o mpandroakeo, hisitahako ondatikoo, hihankañako lavitse! Fa songa mpañarapilo firimboñam-pamañahy.
Oh, that I had in the wildernes a cottage of wayfaring men, that I might leaue my people, and go from them: for they be all adulterers and an assembly of rebels,
3 Ampibitsohe’ iereo o famele’eo, ie ty falem-pandañira’iareo; maozatse amy tane’ey iareo, fe tsy ami’ty hatò; boak’an-draty mb’an-katsivokarañe; alik’am’ iereo iraho, hoe t’Iehovà.
And they bende their tongues like their bowes for lyes: but they haue no courage for the trueth vpon the earth: for they proceede from euill to worse, and they haue not knowen mee, sayth the Lord.
4 Mifampitaoa ry mpitrao-tanàñeo naho ko miato rahalahy; fa songa kalitake ty mpilongo, vaho sindre mifañosoñe amo mpidramotseo o rañetseo.
Let euery one take heede of his neighbour, and trust you not in any brother: for euery brother will vse deceite, and euery friend will deale deceitfully,
5 Sambe mifamañahy o mpirai-moneñeo, tsy mivolan-to, nanare’ iereo handañitse o famele’ iareoo; mamoza-batañe ami’ty fikitrohan-draty.
And euery one wil deceiue his friende, and wil not speake the trueth: for they haue taught their tongues to speake lies, and take great paynes to do wickedly.
6 Añivom-pamañahiañe ao ty akiba’o; ifoneña’ iareo o fikatramoañeo tsy hañaoñe ahy, hoe t’Iehovà.
Thine habitation is in the middes of deceiuers: because of their deceit they refuse to know me, sayth the Lord.
7 Aa le hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy: Ho tranaheko iereo, ho tsoheko iereo; fa ino ka ty ho nanoeko, amy anak’ampela’ ondatikoy.
Therefore thus sayth the Lord of hostes, Behold, I wil melt them, and trie them: for what should I els do for the daughter of my people?
8 Ana-pale mamono ty famele’ iareo, mivola-pitake; saontsiem-palie’e filongoañe ty mpiama’e, fe ikinia’e an-troke ao.
Their tongue is as an arow shot out, and speaketh deceite: one speaketh peaceably to his neighbour with his mouth, but in his heart hee layeth waite for him.
9 Tsy ho liloveko hao iereo ty amy rezay? hoe t’Iehovà; tsy ho valèko fate hao ty fifelehañe manahak’ itoañe?
Shal I not visit them for these things, saith the Lord? or shall not my soule be auenged on such a nation as this?
10 Hirovetako naho hangololoihako o vohitseo, naho handalàko o fiandrazañe am-patrambeio, fa napoke ho tomontoñe, tsy iranga’ ondaty; tsy ahatsanoñam-pimàn’ añombe; songa niborofotse añe o voron-dikerañeo naho o bibio, nibioñe.
Vpon the mountaines will I take vp a weeping and a lamentation, and vpon the fayre places of the wildernes a mourning, because they are burnt vp: so that none can passe through them, neyther can men heare the voyce of the flocke: both the foule of the aire, and the beast are fled away and gone.
11 Hanoeko votrem-porompotse t’Ierosalaime, lakatom-panaloke; vaho hampangoakoaheko o rova’ Iehodào ho po-pimoneñe.
And I wil make Ierusalem an heape, and a den of dragons, and I will make the cities of Iudah waste, without an inhabitant.
12 Ia ty mahihitse haharendreke zao? Ia ty nitsaram-palie’ Iehovà, hitalilia’e? Ino ty nampangoakoake i taney ho ratraratra tsy firangàñe?
Who is wise, to vnderstande this? and to whome the mouth of the Lord hath spoken, euen he shall declare it. Why doth the land perish, and is burnt vp like a wildernesse, that none passeth through?
13 Le hoe t’Iehovà: Amy t’ie nifary i Hàke napoko aolo’ iereoy, naho tsy nañaoñe ty feoko, vaho tsy nañavelo ama’e;
And the Lord sayeth, Because they haue forsaken my Lawe, which I set before them, and haue not obeyed my voice, neither walked thereafter,
14 te mone nitsontike ami’ty hagàñ’ arofo’ iareo, naho amo Baaleo, i nañanaran-droae’ iareoy;
But haue walked after the stubbernesse of their owne heart, and after Baalims, which their fathers taught them,
15 aa le hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy, i Andrianañahare’ Israeley: Ingo hanjotsoako vahontsoy ondaty retoañe, vaho hampinomeko ranon’ afero.
Therefore thus sayth the Lord of hostes, the God of Israel, Behold, I will feede this people with wormewood, and giue them waters of gall to drinke:
16 Habaratsàko amo fifeheañeo iereo, amo tsy nifohi’ iareo naho o rae’ iareoo; vaho hampañoridañeko fibara, ampara’ te mongoreko.
I wil scatter them also among the heathen, whom neither they nor their fathers haue knowen, and I will send a sworde after them, til I haue consumed them.
17 Hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy: Tsakoreo, koiho o rakemba mpandalao, homb’atoy; ampañitrifo o rakemba mahafibekoo, hiheo mb’etoa;
Thus sayeth the Lord of hostes, Take heede, and call for the mourning women, that they may come, and send for skilfull women that they may come,
18 Itaentaeño hangoihoy ho antika higanaganaha’ o fihainon-tikañeo, vaho hikararahan-drano o holi-mason-tikañeo.
And let them make haste, and let them take vp a lamentation for vs, that our eyes may cast out teares and our eye liddes gush out of water.
19 Fa janjiñe e Tsione ao ty feom-pirovetañe: Hete! rotsake tika! Vata’e salatse, fa nienga i taney tika, fa narobake o akiban-tikañeo.
For a lamentable noyse is heard out of Zion, Howe are we destroyed, and vtterly confounded, for we haue forsaken the land, and our dwellings haue cast vs out.
20 Ehe, janjiño ty tsara’ Iehovà ry rakembao, le ampitsendreño o ravembia’ areoo ty tsaram-palie’e: Songa anaro fangololoihañe o anak’ ampela’eo, vaho fiojeañe o mpiama’eo.
Therefore heare the worde of the Lord, O ye women, and let your eares regard the words of his mouth, and teach your daughters to mourne, and euery one her neighbour to lament.
21 Fa nizilik’ amo lafinetio ty havilasy, nimoak’ añ’anjomban-tikañ’ao, ho zamane’e an-dalañe eo o anan-tikañeo, naho an-kiririsa ao o ajalahio.
For death is come vp into our windowes, and is entred into our palaces, to destroy the children without, and the yong men in the streetes.
22 Isaontsio: Hoe t’Iehovà— Hiforetrake hoe taik-ombe amontoñe ey ty lolo’ ondatio, naho manahake ty voton-tsako nipoke boak’an-taña’ i mpanatakey, vaho tsy eo ty hanontoñe.
Speake, thus sayth the Lord, The carkeises of men shall lye, euen as the doung vpon the fielde, and as the handfull after the mower, and none shall gather them.
23 Hoe t’Iehovà: Ee te tsy hirenge ami’ty hihi’e ty mahihitse, naho tsy hisenge ty haozara’e ty maozatse, vaho tsy hiebotsebotse ami’ty vara’e ty mpañaleale.
Thus saith the Lord, Let not the wise man glory in his wisedome, nor the strong man glorie in his strength, neyther the riche man glorie in his riches.
24 F’ie zao ty hirengea’ ty mpirenge: t’ie maharendreke naho mahafohiñ’ ahiko, te Izaho Iehovà, Mpanolots’ arofo naho ty hato, vaho ty havantañañe an-tane atoy; fa irezay ty teako, hoe t’Iehovà.
But let him that glorieth, glorie in this, that he vnderstandeth, and knoweth me: for I am the Lord, which shewe mercie, iudgement, and righteousnes in the earth: for in these things I delite, sayth the Lord.
25 Ingo, ho tondroke ty andro, hoe t’Iehovà, te ho fonga liloveko o sinavatse mboe tsy sinavatseo.
Beholde, the dayes come, sayth the Lord, that I wil visite all them, which are circumcised with the vncircumcised:
26 I Mitsraime naho Iehodà, naho i Edome, naho o ana’ i Amoneo naho i Moabe, vaho ze hene mpimoneñe am-patrambey añe mpañitsike ty maròy añ’ilam-panda’e eo; fa songa tsy sinavatse o fifeheañeo, sindre tsy sinavatse añ’arofo ao ty anjomba’ Israele.
Egypt and Iudah, and Edom, and the children of Ammon, and Moab, and all the vtmost corners of them that dwell in the wildernesse: for all these nations are vncircumcised, and al the house of Israel are vncircumcised in the heart.
