¹The word that hath been unto Jeremiah concerning all the people of Judah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah, — it [is] the first year of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, —

¹[Ny handravan'i Babylona ny Joda sy ny firenena manodidina, ary ny loza hanelezana an'i Babylona sy ny firenena hafa rehetra] Izao no teny tonga tamin'i Jeremia ny amin'ny Joda rehetra tamin'ny taona fahefatra nanjakan'i Joiakima, zanak'i Josia, mpanjakan'ny Joda dia ny taona voalohany nanjakan'i Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan'i Babylona

²Which Jeremiah the prophet hath spoken concerning all the people of Judah, even unto all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, saying:

²dia izay nolazain'i Jeremia mpaminany tamin'ny Joda rehetra sy tamin'ny mponina rehetra tany Jerosalema hoe:

³`From the thirteenth year of Josiah son of Amon king of Judah, and unto this day — this three and twentieth year — hath the word of Jehovah been unto me, and I speak unto you, rising early and speaking, and ye have not hearkened;

³Hatramin'ny taona fahatelo ambin'ny folo nanjakan'i Josia, zanak'i Amona, mpanjakan'ny Joda, ka mandraka androany, dia mandritra ny telo amby roa-polo taona izao, no nahatongavan'ny tenin'i Jehovah tamiko, ary nolazaiko taminareo, eny, nifoha maraina koa aho ka nilaza; nefa tsy nihaino ianareo.

⁴And Jehovah hath sent unto you all His servants, the prophets, rising early and sending, and ye have not hearkened, nor inclined your ear to hear, saying:

⁴Ary Jehovah naniraka ny mpaminany mpanompony rehetra ho any aminareo, eny, nifoha maraina koa Izy ka naniraka nefa tsy nihaino ianareo, na nanongilan-tsofina hihaino hoe:

⁵`Turn back, I pray you, each from his evil way, and from the evil of your doings, and dwell on the ground that Jehovah hath given to you and to your fathers from age unto age,

⁵Samia miala amin'ny lalan-dratsinareo avy ianareo sy amin'ny ratsy fanaonareo, ka dia honina any amin'ny tany izay nomen'i Jehovah anareo sy ny razanareo hatrizay ka ho mandrakizay.

⁶And ye do not go after other gods to serve them, and to bow yourselves to them, nor do ye provoke Me to anger with the work of your hands, and I do no evil to you;

⁶Ary aza manaraka andriamani-kafa hanompo azy sy hiankohoka eo anatrehany, ary aza mampahatezitra Ahy amin'ny asan'ny tananareo, fandrao hahatonga loza aminareo Aho.

⁷And ye have not hearkened unto Me — an affirmation of Jehovah — so as to provoke Me to anger with the work of your hands for evil to you.

⁷Nefa tsy nihaino Ahy ianareo, hoy Jehovah, mba hampahatezeranareo Ahy tamin'ny asan'ny tananareo hahitanareo loza.

⁸`Therefore thus said Jehovah of Hosts, Because that ye have not obeyed My words,

⁸Koa izao no lazain'i Jehovah, Tompon'ny maro: Noho ny tsy nihainoanareo ny teniko,

⁹Lo, I am sending, and have taken all the families of the north — an affirmation of Jehovah — even unto Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, My servant, and have brought them in against this land, and against its inhabitants, and against all these nations round about, and have devoted them, and appointed them for an astonishment, and for a hissing, and for wastes age-during.

⁹dia, indro, hampanalaiko ny firenena rehetra any avaratra sy Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan'i Babylona, mpanompoko, hoy Jehovah, ary ho entiko hamely ity lany ity sy ny mponina eto mbamin'ireto firenena manodidina rehetra ireto izy, ary haringako tokoa ireo ka hataoko ho figagana sy zavatra mampisitrisitra sady ho rava mandrakizay.[Heb. hataoko herema]

¹⁰And I have destroyed from them the voice of rejoicing, and the voice of joy, voice of bridegroom and voice of bride, noise of millstones, and the light of lamps.

¹⁰Ary hatsahatro eo aminy ny feo mifaly sy ny feo miravoravo, dia ny feon'ny mpampakatra sy ny feon'ny ampakarina, ny feon'ny vato fikosoham-bary ary ny fahazavan'ny jiro.

¹¹And all this land hath been for a waste, for an astonishment, and these nations have served the king of Babylon seventy years.

¹¹Ary ity tany rehetra ity dia ho foana sy lao, ary ireto firenena rehetra ireto hanompo ny mpanjakan'i Babylona fito-polo taona.

¹²`And it hath come to pass, at the fulness of seventy years, I charge against the king of Babylon, and against that nation — an affirmation of Jehovah — their iniquity, and against the land of the Chaldeans, and have appointed it for desolations age-during.

¹²Ary rehefa tapitra ny fito-polo taona, hoy Jehovah, dia hovaliako kosa ny mpanjakan'i Babylona sy izany firenena izany noho ny helony, ary ny tanin'ny Kaldeana koa dia hataoko rava mandrakizay.

¹³And I have brought in on that land all My words that I have spoken against it, all that is written in this book, that Jeremiah hath prophesied concerning all the nations.

¹³Ary hotoviko amin'izany tany izany ny teniko rehetra, izay efa nambarako hamelezana azy, dia izay rehetra voasoratra ato amin'ity boky ity, izay novinanin'i Jeremia hamely ny firenena rehetra.

¹⁴For laid service on them — also them — have many nations and great kings, and I have given recompence to them according to their doing, and according to the work of their hands.

¹⁴Fa ireo kosa indray dia hampanompoin'ny firenena maro sy ny mpanjaka lehibe, ary hovaliako araka ny ataony sy araka ny asan'ny tànany avy izy.

¹⁵`For thus said Jehovah God of Israel unto me, Take the wine cup of this fury out of My hand, and thou hast caused all the nations to drink it unto whom I am sending thee;

¹⁵Fa izao no nolazain'i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, tamiko: Raiso etỳ an-tanako ity kapoaky ny divay fahatezerana mirehitra ity, ka ampisotroy ny firenena rehetra izay anirahako anao.

¹⁶And they have drunk, and shaken themselves and shewn themselves foolish, because of the sword that I am sending among them.

¹⁶Ary hisotro izy ka hirepirepy sy ho very saina noho ny sabatra izay hampameleziko azy.

¹⁷`And I take the cup out of the hand of Jehovah, and cause all the nations to drink unto whom Jehovah sent me:

¹⁷Dia noraisiko ny kapoaka teny an-tànan'i Jehovah, ka nampisotroako ny firenena rehetra izay nanirahan'i Jehovah ahy,

¹⁸Jerusalem, and the cities of Judah, And its kings, its heads, To give them to waste, to astonishment, To hissing, and to reviling, as [at] this day.

¹⁸dia Jerosalema sy ny tanànan'ny Joda sy ny mpanjakany ary ny mpanapaka, mba hanao azy ho tany lao sy ho figagana sy zavatra mampisitrisitra ary fanozonana tahaka ny amin'izao anio izao;

¹⁹Pharaoh king of Egypt, and his servants, And his heads, and all his people,

¹⁹ary Farao, mpanjakan'i Egypta, sy ny mpanompony sy ny mpanapaka mbamin'ny vahoakany rehetra,

²⁰And all the mixed people, And all the kings of the land of Uz, And all the kings of the land of the Philistines, And Ashkelon, and Gazzah, and Ekron, And the remnant of Ashdod,

²⁰ary ny olona samy hafa firenena rehetra sy ny mpanjaka rehetra amin'ny tany Oza sy ny mpanjaka rehetra amin'ny tanin'ny Filistina sy Askelona sy Gaza sy Ekrona ary ny sisa any Asdoda;

²¹Edom, and Moab, and the sons of Ammon,

²¹ary Edoma sy Moaba sy ny taranak'i Amona,

²²And all the kings of Tyre, And all the kings of Zidon, And the kings of the isle that [is] beyond the sea,

²²ary ny mpanjaka rehetra any Tyro sy ny mpanjaka rehetra any Sidona ary ny mpanjakan'ny nosy any an-dafin'ny ranomasina;[Na: amoron-tsiraka]

²³Dedan, and Tema, and Buz, And all cutting the corners [of the beard],

²³ary Dedana sy Tema sy Boza ary izay rehetra voahety sisim-bolo,

²⁴And all the kings of Arabia, And all the kings of the mixed people, Who are dwelling in the wilderness,

²⁴ary ny mpanjaka rehetra any Arabia sy ny mpanjaka rehetra amin'ny firenena maro samy hafa izay monina any an-efitra;

²⁵And all the kings of Zimri, And all the kings of Elam, And all the kings of Media,

²⁵ary ny mpanjaka rehetra any Zimry sy ny mpanjaka rehetra any Elama ary ny mpanjaka rehetra any Media,

²⁶And all the kings of the north, The near and the far off, one unto another, And all the kingdoms of the earth, That [are] on the face of the ground, And king Sheshach drinketh after them.

²⁶ary ny mpanjaka rehetra any avaratra, na ny lavitra na ny akaiky, na iza na iza, ary ny fanjakana rehetra amin'izao tontolo izao, izay etỳ ambonin'ny tany; ary ny mpanjakan'i Sesaka koa dia hisotro manaraka ireo.[Sesaka = Babela]

²⁷And thou hast said unto them: Thus said Jehovah of Hosts God of Israel, Drink ye, yea drink abundantly, And vomit, and fall, and rise not, Because of the sword that I am sending among you.

²⁷Koa lazao aminy hoe: Izao no lazain'i Jehovah, Tompon'ny maro. Andriamanitry ny Isiraely: Misotroa ianareo, ka mimamoa, sy mandoava, ary mianjerà, ka aza miarina intsony noho ny sabatra izay hampameleziko anareo.

²⁸And it hath come to pass, When they refuse to receive the cup out of thy hand to drink, That thou hast said unto them: Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, Ye do certainly drink.

²⁸Ary raha tsy mety mandray ny kapoaka eny an-tananao hosotroiny izy, dia ataovy aminy hoe: Izao no lazain'i Jehovah, Tompon'ny maro: Tsy maintsy misotro ianareo.

²⁹For lo, in the city over which My name is called, I am beginning to do evil, And ye — ye are entirely acquitted! Ye are not acquitted, for a sword I am proclaiming, For all inhabitants of the land, An affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts.

²⁹Fa, indro, ao amin'ny tanàna izay efa niantsoana ny anarako aza no nanombohako ny fahatongavana loza, ka ho afaka va ianareo? Tsy ho afaka mihitsy ianareo, fa hiantso sabatra Aho hamelezana ny mponina rehetra amin'ny tany, hoy Jehovah, Tompon'ny maro.

³⁰And thou, thou dost prophesy unto them all these words, and hast said unto them: Jehovah from the high place doth roar, And from His holy habitation giveth forth His voice, He surely roareth for His habitation, A shout as of treaders down, God answereth all the inhabitants of the land,

³⁰Koa maminania aminy ianao araka izao teny rehetra izao, ka ataovy hoe: Jehovah hierona any ambony ary hanandratra ny feony any amin'ny fitoerany masina, eny, hierona mafy amin'ny sahany fiandrasan-ondry Izy ka hanakora toy ny mpanosihosy voaloboka, hamelezana ny mponina rehetra amin'ny tany.

³¹Wasting hath come unto the end of the earth, For a controversy hath Jehovah with nations, He hath executed judgment for all flesh, The wicked! He hath given them to the sword, An affirmation of Jehovah.

³¹Mihatra amin'ny faran'ny tany ny fihorakorahana; Fa Jehovah manana ady amin'ny firenena; Mifandahatra amin'ny nofo rehetra Izy, ka ny ratsy fanahy dia atolony ho an'ny sabatra, hoy Jehovah.

³²Thus said Jehovah of Hosts: Lo, evil is going out from nation to nation, And a great whirlwind is stirred up from the sides of the earth.

³²Izao no lazain'i Jehovah, Tompon'ny maro: Indro, hisy loza hivoaka hitety ny firenena samy hafa, ary hisy tafio-drivotra mahery hiposaka any amin'ny faran'ny tany;

³³And the pierced of Jehovah have been in that day, From the end of the earth even unto the end of the earth, They are not lamented, nor gathered, nor buried, For dung on the face of the ground they are.

³³Ary amin'izany andro izany Ny voavonon'i Jehovah, dia hiampatrampatra hatramin'ny faran'ny tany anankiray ka hatramin'ny farany koa; Tsy hisaonana, na hangonina, na halevina ireny, fa ho zezika eny ambonin'ny tany.

³⁴Howl, ye shepherds, and cry, And roll yourselves, ye honourable of the flock, For full have been your days, For slaughtering, and [for] your scatterings, And ye have fallen as a desirable vessel.

³⁴Midradradradrà, ianareo mpiandry ondry, ary mitaraina; Eny, mihosinkosena, ianareo zokiny amin'ny ondry! Fa tonga ny andro hamonoana anareo, ary hampieleziko ianareo ka hianjera toy ny fanaka tsara.

³⁵And perished hath refuge from the shepherds, And escape from the honourable of the flock.

³⁵Ny mpiandry ondry tsy hanam-pandosirana, ary ny zokiny amin'ny ondry tsy hanam-pahafahana.

³⁶A voice [is] of the cry of the shepherds, And a howling of the honourable of the flock, For Jehovah is spoiling their pasture.

³⁶Injany! misy feo fitarainan'ny mpiandry ondry sy fidradradradran'ny zokiny aminy! Satria efa nosimban'i Jehovah ny saha fiandrasana azy,

³⁷And the peaceable habitations have been cut down, Because of the fierceness of the anger of Jehovah.

³⁷Ary efa tonga lao ny kijana niadanana noho ny firehetan'ny fahatezeran'i Jehovah.Nandao ny fiereny toy ny liona tanora izy; Fa efa lao ny taniny noho ny fahasiahan'ny mpampahory sy noho ny firehetan'ny fahatezerany.

³⁸He hath forsaken, as a young lion, His covert, Surely their land hath become a desolation, Because of the oppressing fierceness, And because of the fierceness of His anger!

³⁸Nandao ny fiereny toy ny liona tanora izy; Fa efa lao ny taniny noho ny fahasiahan'ny mpampahory sy noho ny firehetan'ny fahatezerany.
