< Jeremia 49 >

1 Ty amo nte-Amoneo. Hoe t’Iehovà: Tsy amañ’ana-dahy hao t’Israele? Tsy amam-pandova hao re? Inoñ’ arè ty itavana’ i Meleke i Gade? naho ty imoneña’ ondati’eo an-drova’ iareo ao?
Of the children of Ammon. Yahweh says: “Has Israel no sons? Has he no heir? Why then does Malcam possess Gad, and his people dwell in its cities?
2 Aa le ho tondroke ty andro, hoe t’Iehovà, te hampijanjiñeko koin’aly e Rabà’ o ana’ i Amoneo; ie ho votre mangoakoake le ho hotomomoheñe añ’afo o anak’ ampela’eo; naho hapitso’ Israele o nampipitsok’ azeo, hoe t’Iehovà.
Therefore behold, the days come,” says Yahweh, “that I will cause an alarm of war to be heard against Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and it will become a desolate heap, and her daughters will be burned with fire; then Israel will possess those who possessed him,” says Yahweh.
3 Mangoihoia ry Kesbone, fa rotsake t’i Aia; mikoeakoeaha ry anak’ ampela’ i Rabà, misikina gony, mandalà, miheloheloa amo goloboñeo, fa homb’am-pandrohizañe añe t’i Meleke, o mpisoro’eo rekets’ o roandria’eo.
“Wail, Heshbon, for Ai is laid waste! Cry, you daughters of Rabbah! Clothe yourself in sackcloth. Lament, and run back and forth among the fences; for Malcam will go into captivity, his priests and his princes together.
4 Ino ty irengea’o am-bavatane ao, i vavatane’o mitsiritsiokey, ry anak’ ampela midisa-volio? Ihe miato vara, manao ty hoe: Ia ty haname ahy?
Why do you boast in the valleys, your flowing valley, backsliding daughter? You trusted in her treasures, saying, ‘Who will come to me?’
5 Inao, hampangebahebak’azo raho, hoe t’i Talè, Iehovà’ i Màroy, boak’ amo mañohok’ azo iabio; naho songa haronje’ ty roake mb’eo, tsy eo ty hanontoñe ty mibaratsake.
Behold, I will bring a terror on you,” says the Lord, Yahweh of Armies, “from all who are around you. All of you will be driven completely out, and there will be no one to gather together the fugitives.
6 Fa ie añe, le hampoliko boak’ an-drohy añe o ana’ i Amoneo, hoe t’Iehovà.
“But afterward I will reverse the captivity of the children of Ammon,” says Yahweh.
7 Ty amy Edome; hoe’Iehovà’ i Màroy: Fa kapaike hao ty hihitse e Temane ao? Fa mongotse hao ty veren-tsoa’ o maharendrekeo? Fa nilosotse am’ iareo hao ty hilala?
Of Edom, Yahweh of Armies says: “Is wisdom no more in Teman? Has counsel perished from the prudent? Has their wisdom vanished?
8 Miridaridà, mibalintoà, mitoboha an-dalek’ ao, ry mpimone’ i Dedaneo; fa hapoko ama’e ty feh’oha’ i Esave, ty andro andilovako aze.
Flee! Turn back! Dwell in the depths, inhabitants of Dedan; for I will bring the calamity of Esau on him when I visit him.
9 Aa naho nimb’ama’o mb’eo ty mpanontoñe valoboke, tsy ho nisisà’ iareo hao ty ho tsindroheñe? Naho ty malaso an-kaleñe, tsy ho namaok’ am-para’ te nieneñe?
If grape gatherers came to you, would they not leave some gleaning grapes? If thieves came by night, wouldn’t they steal until they had enough?
10 F’ie finaopaoko t’i Esave, nampikorendaheko o fikafira’eo, le tsy ho lefe’e ty hietake; fa tinavañe o tiri’eo, songa tsy eo o rolongo’eo, naho o rañe’eo, vaho i vata’ey.
But I have made Esau bare, I have uncovered his secret places, and he will not be able to hide himself. His offspring is destroyed, with his brothers and his neighbors; and he is no more.
11 Fario o anam-bode-rae’oo, fa ho velomeko; naho angao hiato amako o ramavoi’oo.
Leave your fatherless children. I will preserve them alive. Let your widows trust in me.”
12 Fa hoe t’Iehovà: Ingo, ndra te tsy tinendre hinoñe amy fitoviy ty ila’e, toe hinoñe ama’e avao; aa le tsy ho lilovañe ka v’iheo? Tsy hapoke tsy ho lilovan-drehe, toe tsy mahay tsy hinoñe.
For Yahweh says: “Behold, they to whom it didn’t pertain to drink of the cup will certainly drink; and are you he who will altogether go unpunished? You won’t go unpunished, but you will surely drink.
13 Fa nifanta ami’ty vatako raho, hoe t’Iehovà, te ho hadabàñe ty Botsrà, fañinjeañe, ratraratra, naho fatse; vaho ho koake nainai’e donia o rova’eo.
For I have sworn by myself,” says Yahweh, “that Bozrah will become an astonishment, a reproach, a waste, and a curse. All its cities will be perpetual wastes.”
14 Fa nahatsanon-talily boak’am’ Iehovà raho, fa nampihitrifeñe amo kilakila’ ondatio ty minday ty hoe: Mifanontona, mionjona haname aze, vaho miongaha mb’an-kotakotake mb’eo.
I have heard news from Yahweh, and an ambassador is sent among the nations, saying, “Gather yourselves together! Come against her! Rise up to the battle!”
15 Inao, hafotsako ho kedekedeke amo fifeheañeo rehe, naho ho fañamavoa’ ondatio.
“For, behold, I have made you small among the nations, and despised among men.
16 Fa namañahy azo ty fangebaheba’o: ty firengevohan’ arofo’o, ihe mpimoneñe an-tseratseram-bato ao, mitobok’ an-kaboañe ey; aa ndra te nanoe’o antiotiotse ey, mira ami’ty vantio ty akiba’o, mbe hampizotsoeko boak’ey, hoe t’Iehovà.
As for your terror, the pride of your heart has deceived you, O you who dwell in the clefts of the rock, who hold the height of the hill, though you should make your nest as high as the eagle, I will bring you down from there,” says Yahweh.
17 Ho liolio kòake t’i Edome, hene ho latsa ze mioza ama’e, hikosìk’ amo hekoheko nizoe’eo.
“Edom will become an astonishment. Everyone who passes by it will be astonished, and will hiss at all its plagues.
18 Hanahake ty fandrotsahañe i Sedome naho i Amorà naho o rova nañohoke iareoo, hoe t’Iehovà, tsy himoneña’ ondaty, tsy hañialoa’ ty ana’ondaty.
As in the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah and its neighbor cities,” says Yahweh, “no man will dwell there, neither will any son of man live therein.
19 Ingo hionjoñe hanahake ty liona boak’an-drongoñe matahetse añ’olo’ Iordaney mb’an-goloboñe soa fahetse mb’eo; fa hampitribaheko an-day boak’ ama’e amy zao, vaho ho tendrèko hifehe aze ze nijoboñeñe; fa ia ty hambañ’ amako? Ia ty haneseke ahy? Vaho ia ty mpiarake hahafijohañe hiatrek’ ahiko?
“Behold, he will come up like a lion from the pride of the Jordan against the strong habitation; for I will suddenly make them run away from it, and whoever is chosen, I will appoint him over it. For who is like me? Who will appoint me a time? Who is the shepherd who will stand before me?”
20 Aa le inao ty safiri’ Iehovà, ty nisafirie’e i Edome; naho ty ereñere naereñere’e amo mpimone’ i Temaneo; toe ho kozozote’e añe ndra o kede amy lia-raikeio, vata’e hampangoakoahe’e am’iereo o fiandraza’ iareoo.
Therefore hear the counsel of Yahweh, that he has taken against Edom, and his purposes that he has purposed against the inhabitants of Teman: Surely they will drag them away, the little ones of the flock. Surely he will make their habitation desolate over them.
21 Man­ginikinike ty tane ami’ty fikodoim-pikorovoha’ iareo; inay ty koeake, janjiñe an-dRiake Mena añe ty feo’e.
The earth trembles at the noise of their fall; there is a cry, the noise which is heard in the Red Sea.
22 Ingo t’ie hionjoñe mb’eo naho hitsikefañe hoe vantio vaho havela’e amy Botsrà o ela’eo; le hanahake ty fidebom-pon-drakemba mitsongo ty arofo’ o fanalolahi’ i Edomeo amy andro zay.
Behold, he will come up and fly as the eagle, and spread out his wings against Bozrah. The heart of the mighty men of Edom at that day will be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.
23 I Damesèke: Angoae ty Kamate naho i Arpade; ty amy talili-raty jinanji’ iareo, ie tranahe’ ty hebakebake, mitroñe i riakey tsy mete pendreñeñe.
Of Damascus: “Hamath and Arpad are confounded, for they have heard evil news. They have melted away. There is sorrow on the sea. It can’t be quiet.
24 Niforetrake t’i Damesèke, nitolike re hivoratsake, fe manjitse aze ty fineveneverà’e; fioremeñañe naho teveteveke ty mamihiñe aze, manahake ty ampela mitsongo.
Damascus has grown feeble, she turns herself to flee, and trembling has seized her. Anguish and sorrows have taken hold of her, as of a woman in travail.
25 Akore te hangoakoake i rova nirengèñey, i rova nahafale ahiy?
How is the city of praise not forsaken, the city of my joy?
26 Aa le hikorovok’ an-tameañe ey o ajalahi’eo, vaho fonga hampianjiñeñe amy andro zay o lahin-defoñeo, hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy.
Therefore her young men will fall in her streets, and all the men of war will be brought to silence in that day,” says Yahweh of Armies.
27 Hamiañako afo ty kijoli’ i Damesèke, hampibotseke o anjomba’ i Ben-hadadeo.
“I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus, and it will devour the palaces of Ben Hadad.”
28 Ty amy Kedare naho or fifehea’ i Katsore linafa’ i Nebokadnetsare mpanjaka’ i Baveleo, hoe t’Iehovà; Miongaha, mionjona mb’e Kedare, vaho korendaho o anan-tatiñanañeo.
Of Kedar, and of the kingdoms of Hazor, which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon struck, Yahweh says: “Arise, go up to Kedar, and destroy the children of the east.
29 Ho kopahe’ iereo ty kivoho naho o lia-rai’ iareoo, ho tavane’ iareo ho am-bata’e o lamban-temetseo, naho o vara’ iareoo, naho o rameva’ iareoo; vaho ho koraheñe ama’iareo, ty hoe, Hankàñe mb’etia mb’eroa!
They will take their tents and their flocks. they will carry away for themselves their curtains, all their vessels, and their camels; and they will cry to them, ‘Terror on every side!’
30 Miorata añe, miherereaha! mañialoa an-dalek’ ao, ry mpimoneñe e Katsore ao, hoe t’Iehovà; fa nisafirie’ i Nebokadnetsare mpanjaka’ i Bavele, vaho naereñere’e talin-dia.
Flee! Wander far off! Dwell in the depths, you inhabitants of Hazor,” says Yahweh; “for Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has taken counsel against you, and has conceived a purpose against you.
31 Miongaha, mionjona mb’amy fifeheañe mierañerañey, i miaiñañoleñañey; hoe t’Iehovà; I tsy aman-kijoly, tsy aman-tsikadañey; mpimoneñe am-bangiñe.
Arise! Go up to a nation that is at ease, that dwells without care,” says Yahweh; “that has neither gates nor bars, that dwells alone.
32 Hakopake o rameva’ iareoo, ho tongañe o añombe’ iareo mitozantozañeo; vaho hampiparatsiaheko mb’amo tioke iabio o mihitsike ty am-bala’eo, haseseko hankàñe boak’an -dafi’e iaby, hoe t’Iehovà.
Their camels will be a booty, and the multitude of their livestock a plunder. I will scatter to all winds those who have the corners of their beards cut off; and I will bring their calamity from every side of them,” says Yahweh.
33 Ho poakorom-panaloke ty Katsore, hoakoake nainai’e kitro-katroke, ie ho po-pimoneñe, ndra ty ana’ ondaty tsy hañialo ao.
Hazor will be a dwelling place of jackals, a desolation forever. No man will dwell there, neither will any son of man live therein.”
34 Ty tsara’ Iehovà niheo am’ Iirmeà mpitoky ty amy Elame ami’ty fifotoram-pifehea’ i Tsidkia’ mpanjaka’ Iehodà, manao ty hoe:
Yahweh’s word that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning Elam, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying,
35 Hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy; Inao! ho pekañeko ty fale’ i Elame, ty fiaolon-kaozara’ iareo.
“Yahweh of Armies says: ‘Behold, I will break the bow of Elam, the chief of their might.
36 Le hatreatrèko amy Elame i tiok’efatse boak’ an-kotsok’ efa’ i likerañey rey, naho hampiparaitaheko mb’amy tioke rey iereo; vaho tsy eo ty fifeheañe tsy higodañe’ o naronje boak’ Elameo.
I will bring on Elam the four winds from the four quarters of the sky, and will scatter them toward all those winds. There will be no nation where the outcasts of Elam will not come.
37 Le hampiroreheko añatrefa’ o rafelahi’eo t’i Elame, naho aolo’ o mipay ty fiai’iareoo; naho hametsahako hankàñe, naho ty haboseko miforoforo; hoe t’Iehovà; vaho hañitrifako fibara hañoridañe iareo ampara’ te mongotse;
I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies, and before those who seek their life. I will bring evil on them, even my fierce anger,’ says Yahweh; ‘and I will send the sword after them, until I have consumed them.
38 le hapoko Elame ao ty fiambesako vaho ho rotsaheko boak’ao ze mpanjaka ndra roandriañe, hoe t’Iehovà.
I will set my throne in Elam, and will destroy from there king and princes,’ says Yahweh.
39 Fe ho tondrok’ amo andro honka’eo te hampoliko o ­nasese hirik’ i Elame, hoe t’Iehovà.
‘But it will happen in the latter days that I will reverse the captivity of Elam,’ says Yahweh.”
