Jeremiah 10
1 Hear the word which the LORD speaks to you, house of Israel!
Henoy ny teny izay lazain’ i Jehovah aminareo, ry taranak’ Isiraely!
2 The LORD says, “Don’t learn the way of the nations, and don’t be dismayed at the signs of the sky; for the nations are dismayed at them.
Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Aza mianatra ny fanaon’ ny jentilisa; Ary aza matahotra ireo famantarana eny amin’ ny lanitra; Fa ny jentilisa no matahotra izany.
3 For the customs of the peoples are vanity; for one cuts a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman with the axe.
Fa ny fanaon’ ny firenena dia zava-poana; Fa hazo nokapaina tany an’ ala ireny, dia asan-tànan’ ny mpiasa amin’ ny famaky;
4 They deck it with silver and with gold. They fasten it with nails and with hammers, so that it can’t move.
Volafotsy sy volamena no an-dravahany azy, ary hombo sy tantanana no entiny manamafy azy, mba tsy hihetsiketehany.
5 They are like a palm tree, of turned work, and don’t speak. They must be carried, because they can’t move. Don’t be afraid of them; for they can’t do evil, neither is it in them to do good.”
Toy ny hazo voasana ho sari-drofia izy, fa tsy mahateny; Ary entina ihany izy, fa tsy mba afa-mandeha; Aza matahotra azy, fa tsy mahatonga loza izy sady tsy mahay manisy soa.
6 There is no one like you, LORD. You are great, and your name is great in might.
Tsy misy tokoa izay tahaka Anao, Jehovah ô; Lehibe Hianao, ary lehibe amin’ ny hery ny anaranao.
7 Who shouldn’t fear you, King of the nations? For it belongs to you. Because amongst all the wise men of the nations, and in all their royal estate, there is no one like you.
Iza no tsy hatahotra Anao, ry Mpanjakan’ ny firenena! Fa Hianao no iendrehan’ izany, eny, amin’ ny hendry rehetra amin’ ny firenena sy amin’ ny fanjakany rehetra dia tsy misy tahaka Anao.
8 But they are together brutish and foolish, instructed by idols! It is just wood.
Fa ketrina sy adala avokoa izy rehetra; He! fananaram-poana! fa tapa-kazo ihany.
9 There is silver beaten into plates, which is brought from Tarshish, and gold from Uphaz, the work of the engraver and of the hands of the goldsmith. Their clothing is blue and purple. They are all the work of skilful men.
Volafotsy voafisaka nalaina avy tany Tarsisy sy volamena avy tany Ofaza Izany, asan-tanan’ ny mpiasa sy ny mpanefy volamena; Lamba manga sy volomparasy ny fitafiany; Asan’ ny mahay zavatra izy rehetra.
10 But the LORD is the true God. He is the living God, and an everlasting King. At his wrath, the earth trembles. The nations aren’t able to withstand his indignation.
Fa Jehovah no Andriamanitra tokoa, eny, Izy no Andriamanitra velona sy Mpanjaka mandrakizay. Izay mampihorohoro ny tany amin’ ny fahatezerany, ka tsy tantin’ ny firenena ny fahavinirany
11 “You shall say this to them: ‘The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth will perish from the earth, and from under the heavens.’”
(Izao no holazainareo amin’ ireny; Ny amin’ ny andriamanitra izay tsy mba nanao ny lanitra sy ny tany, dia ho levona tsy ho amin’ ny tany na ho atỳ ambanin’ ny lanitra ireny)
12 God has made the earth by his power. He has established the world by his wisdom, and by his understanding has he stretched out the heavens.
Dia Ilay nanao ny tany tamin’ ny heriny sy nampiorina izao tontolo izao tamin’ ny fahendreny ary namelatra ny lanitra tamin’ ny fisainany.
13 When he utters his voice, the waters in the heavens roar, and he causes the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth. He makes lightnings for the rain, and brings the wind out of his treasuries.
Raha mampirohondrohona ny rano any an-danitra Izy, dia mampiakatra fofona avy any amin’ ny faran’ ny tany; Manao ny helatra ho amin’ ny ranonorana Izy sady mamoaka ny rivotra avy amin’ ny firaketany.
14 Every man has become brutish and without knowledge. Every goldsmith is disappointed by his engraved image; for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them.
Efa ketrina avokoa ny olona rehetra ka tsy manam-pahalalana; Menarina noho ny sarin-javatra voasokitra ny mpanefy volamena rehetra; Fa fitaka ny sarin-javatra an-idina, sady tsy misy fofon’ aina ao aminy.
15 They are vanity, a work of delusion. In the time of their visitation they will perish.
Zava-poana ireny, dia asa mahatsikaiky foana; Amin’ ny andro hamaliana azy dia ho levona izy.
16 The portion of Jacob is not like these; for he is the maker of all things; and Israel is the tribe of his inheritance. The LORD of Hosts is his name.
Tsy mba tahaka ireo ny Anjaran’ i Jakoba; Fa Mpamorona ny zavatra rehetra Izy; Ary ny Isiraely no firenena lovany; Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, no anarany.
17 Gather up your wares out of the land, you who live under siege.
Angony ny korontan’ entanao, ka ento hiala amin’ ny tany, ry ilay mipetraka ao amin’ ny haterena!
18 For the LORD says, “Behold, I will sling out the inhabitants of the land at this time, and will distress them, that they may feel it.”
Fa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Indro, hatorako ho indray misidina toy ny vaton’ antsamotady ny mponina amin’ ny tany, ary hataoko terỳ izy mba hahitany.
19 Woe is me because of my injury! My wound is serious; but I said, “Truly this is my grief, and I must bear it.”
Mahita loza aho, fa torotoro! Tsy azo sitranina ny feriko; Nefa hoy Izaho: Anjara-fahoriako izao, ka dia hozakaiko ihany.
20 My tent has been destroyed, and all my cords are broken. My children have gone away from me, and they are no more. There is no one to spread my tent any more, to set up my curtains.
Rava ny laiko, ary tapaka avokoa ny kofehin-daiko; Lasa ny zanako, ka tsy misy intsony, eny, tsy misy hamelatra ny laiko intsony na hanantona ny ambain-daiko.
21 For the shepherds have become brutish, and have not enquired of the LORD. Therefore they have not prospered, and all their flocks have scattered.
Fa efa ketrina ny mpiandry ondry ka tsy mitady an’ i Jehovah; Izany no tsy mahahendry azy, ka dia miely ny ondry andrasany rehetra.
22 The voice of news, behold, it comes, and a great commotion out of the north country, to make the cities of Judah a desolation, a dwelling place of jackals.
Injany! misy siosion-teny hoe: Indro, tamy izy amin’ ny fihorakorahana be avy any amin’ ny tany avaratra mba hahatonga ny tanànan’ ny Joda ho lao sy ho fonenan’ ny amboadia.
23 LORD, I know that the way of man is not in himself. It is not in man who walks to direct his steps.
Jehovah ô, fantatro fa tsy an’ ny olombelona ny lalan-kalehany, na an’ ny mpandeha ny hahalavorary ny diany
24 LORD, correct me, but gently; not in your anger, lest you reduce me to nothing.
Jehovah ô, anaro aho, nefa araka ny antonony ihany, fa tsy amin’ ny fahatezeranao, fandrao hataonao tonga tsinontsinona aho.
25 Pour out your wrath on the nations that don’t know you, and on the families that don’t call on your name; for they have devoured Jacob. Yes, they have devoured him, consumed him, and have laid waste his habitation.
Aidino amin’ ny jentilisa izay tsy mahalala Anao ny fahatezeranao, dia amin’ ny taranaka Izay tsy miantso ny anaranao. Fa efa nihinana an’ i Jakoba ireo, eny, nihinana sy nahalevona azy ary nahalao ny fonenany.
