< Jeremiah 47 >

1 The LORD’s word that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning the Philistines, before Pharaoh struck Gaza.
Ny tenin’ i Jehovah izay tonga tamin’ i Jeremia mpaminany ny amin’ ny Filistina, fony Farao tsy mbola namely an’ i Gaza.
2 The LORD says: “Behold, waters rise up out of the north, and will become an overflowing stream, and will overflow the land and all that is therein, the city and those who dwell therein. The men will cry, and all the inhabitants of the land will wail.
Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Indro, misy rano mizotra avy any avaratra ka ho tonga ony maria manafotra ny tany mbamin’ izay rehetra ao aminy, dia ny tanàna mbamin’ izay monina ao aminy; Ka dia hitaraina ny olona, ary hidradradradra ny mponina rehetra amin’ ny tany.
3 At the noise of the stamping of the hoofs of his strong ones, at the rushing of his chariots, at the rumbling of his wheels, the fathers do not look back for their children because their hands are so feeble,
Noho ny fikatrokatroky ny kitron’ ny soavaliny matanjaka sy ny fikorodondrodon’ ny kalesiny ary ny fikotrototroky ny kodiany ny ray dia tsy miherika ny zanany, fa efa miraviravy tanana,
4 because of the day that comes to destroy all the Philistines, to cut off from Tyre and Sidon every helper who remains; for the LORD will destroy the Philistines, the remnant of the isle of Caphtor.
Noho ny hihavian’ ny andro handravana ny Filistina rehetra sy handringanana izay sisa rehetra amin’ ny mpamonjy an’ i Tyro sy Sidona; Fa horavan’ i Jehovah ny Filistina, dia ny sisa avy any amin’ ny nosy Kaftora.
5 Baldness has come on Gaza; Ashkelon is brought to nothing. You remnant of their valley, how long will you cut yourself?
Voaharatra Gaza, ringana Askelona mbamin’ ny sisa amin’ ny lohasahany; Mandra-pahoviana no mbola hitetika ny tenanao ianao?
6 “‘You sword of the LORD, how long will it be before you are quiet? Put yourself back into your scabbard; rest, and be still.’
Indrisy ry sabatr’ i Jehovah! Mandra-pahoviana no tsy hitsaharanao? Midìra ao amin’ ny tranonao ihany; Mitsahara, ka mijanòna.
7 “How can you be quiet, since the LORD has given you a command? Against Ashkelon, and against the seashore, there he has appointed it.”
Hataony ahoana no fitsahatra. Fa Jehovah no nandidy azy, eny, hamely an’ i Askelona mbamin’ ny eny amoron-dranomasina no efa nanendreny azy.
