Jeremiah 23
1 “Woe to the shepherds who destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture!” says the LORD.
Lozan’ ireo mpiandry izay manimba sy mampihahaka ny ondry fiandriko, hoy Jehovah
2 Therefore the LORD, the God of Israel, says against the shepherds who feed my people: “You have scattered my flock, driven them away, and have not visited them. Behold, I will visit on you the evil of your doings,” says the LORD.
Koa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, ny amin’ ireo mpiandry izay miandry ny oloko: Hianareo efa nampihahaka ny ondriko sy nandronjindronjina azy, fa tsy nanolokolo azy; Koa, indro, hovaliako ianareo noho ny faharatsian’ ny ataonareo, hoe Jehovah
3 “I will gather the remnant of my flock out of all the countries where I have driven them, and will bring them again to their folds; and they will be fruitful and multiply.
Ary Izaho hanangona ny ondriko sisa avy any amin’ ny tany rehetra izay nandroahako azy ka hampodiko ho any amin’ ny saha niandrasana azy, dia hitombo sy hihamaro izy
4 I will set up shepherds over them who will feed them. They will no longer be afraid or dismayed, neither will any be lacking,” says the LORD.
Ary hanendry mpiandry ho azy Aho, ka dia hiandry azy ireo; Ka tsy hatahotra na hivadi-po intsony izy, sady tsy hisy tsy ho voavory, hoy Jehovah.
5 “Behold, the days come,” says the LORD, “that I will raise to David a righteous Branch; and he will reign as king and deal wisely, and will execute justice and righteousness in the land.
Indro, avy ny andro, hoy Jehovah, izay hananganako Rantsana marina ho an’ i Davida, ka hanjaka Izy sady ho hendry ary hanao fitsarana sy fahamarinana amin’ ny tany.
6 In his days Judah will be saved, and Israel will dwell safely. This is his name by which he will be called: The LORD our righteousness.
Amin’ ny androny no hamonjena ny Joda, sy handrian’ ny Isiraely fahizay, ary izao no anarany izay hanononana Azy: Jehovah Fahamarinantsika.
7 “Therefore, behold, the days come,” says the LORD, “that they will no more say, ‘As the LORD lives, who brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;’
Koa, indro, avy ny andro, hoy Jehovah, Izay tsy hanaovana intsony hoe: Raha velona koa Jehovah, Izay nitondra ny Zanak’ Isiraely niakatra avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta;
8 but, ‘As the LORD lives, who brought up and who led the offspring of the house of Israel out of the north country, and from all the countries where I had driven them.’ Then they will dwell in their own land.”
Fa izao kosa: Raha velona koa Jehovah, Izay nitondra ny taranak’ Isiraely niakatra sady nitarika azy avy tany amin’ ny tany avaratra sy avy tany amin’ ny tany rehetra izay nandroahako azy; Dia honina ao amin’ ny taniny izy.
9 Concerning the prophets: My heart within me is broken. All my bones shake. I am like a drunken man, and like a man whom wine has overcome, because of the LORD, and because of his holy words.
Ny amin’ ireo mpaminany. Montsamotsana ato anatiko ny foko, mangozohozo ny taolako rehetra, toy ny olona mamo aho, ary toy ny lehilahy leon-divay, noho ny amin’ i Jehovah sy noho ny teniny masìna.
10 “For the land is full of adulterers; for because of the curse the land mourns. The pastures of the wilderness have dried up. Their course is evil, and their might is not right;
Fa feno mpijangajanga ny tany; Ary noho ny ozona no isaonan’ ny tany, efa maina ny kijana any an-efitra; Ary efa ratsy ny fanaon’ ny olona, sady ny tsi-fahamarinana no heriny.
11 for both prophet and priest are profane. Yes, in my house I have found their wickedness,” says the LORD.
Fa na mpaminany na mpisorona dia samy mpihatsaravelatsihy avokoa; Na dia tao an-tranoko aza dia mbola hitako ihany ny haratsiany, hoy Jehovah.
12 Therefore their way will be to them as slippery places in the darkness. They will be driven on, and fall therein; for I will bring evil on them, even the year of their visitation,” says the LORD.
Koa dia ho toy ny lala-malama amin’ ny aizim-pito ny lalany; Haronjina izy, ka dia ho potraka ao; Fa hahatonga loza aminy Aho amin’ ny taona hamaliana azy, hoy Jehovah.
13 “I have seen folly in the prophets of Samaria. They prophesied by Baal, and caused my people Israel to err.
Ary tamin’ ny mpaminanin’ i Samaria no nahitako zavatra mahaloiloy: Naminany tamin’ i Bala izy ka nampivily ny Isiraely oloko,
14 In the prophets of Jerusalem I have also seen a horrible thing: they commit adultery and walk in lies. They strengthen the hands of evildoers, so that no one returns from his wickedness. They have all become to me as Sodom, and its inhabitants as Gomorrah.”
Ary tamin’ ny mpaminanin’ i Jerosalema koa no nahitako zavatra mahatsiravina; Mijangajanga sy mandeha araka ny lainga izy sady mampahery ny tanan’ ny mpanao ratsy, ka samy tsy miala amin’ ny faharatsiany; Eny, izy rehetra dia tonga tahaka an’ i Sodoma raha amiko, ary ny mponina ao dia tonga tahaka an’ i Gomora.
15 Therefore the LORD of Hosts says concerning the prophets: “Behold, I will feed them with wormwood, and make them drink poisoned water; for from the prophets of Jerusalem ungodliness has gone out into all the land.”
Koa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, ny amin’ ireo mpaminany ireo: Indro, hofahanako zava-mahafaty izy sy hampisotroiko rano mangidy, satria avy tamin’ ny mpaminanin’ i Jerosalema no nivoahan’ ny faharatsiana ho any amin’ ny tany rehetra.
16 The LORD of Hosts says, “Don’t listen to the words of the prophets who prophesy to you. They teach you vanity. They speak a vision of their own heart, and not out of the mouth of the LORD.
Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro: Aza mihaino ny tenin’ ny mpaminany izay maminany aminareo, fa manadala anareo ireo; Ny fahitana avy ao am-pony ihany no lazainy, fa tsy izay aloaky ny vavan’ i Jehovah.
17 They say continually to those who despise me, ‘The LORD has said, “You will have peace;”’ and to everyone who walks in the stubbornness of his own heart they say, ‘No evil will come on you.’
Milaza mandrakariva amin’ izay manamavo Ahy izy hoe: Jehovah nanao hoe: Hahita fiadanana ianareo, ary amin’ izay rehetra mandeha araka ny ditry ny fony hoe: Tsy hisy loza hanjo anareo.
18 For who has stood in the council of the LORD, that he should perceive and hear his word? Who has listened to my word, and heard it?
Fa iza moa no efa isan’ ny mpihevitra teo amin’ i Jehovah ka nahita sy nandre ny teniny? Iza no nanongilana ny sofiny taminy ka nihaino ny teniny?
19 Behold, the LORD’s storm, his wrath, has gone out. Yes, a whirling storm! It will burst on the head of the wicked.
He! ny tadion’ i Jehovah! Mivoaka ny fahatezerana sy ny tadio mitambolimbolina ka miantonta amin’ ny lohan’ ny ratsy fanahy.
20 The LORD’s anger will not return until he has executed and performed the intents of his heart. In the latter days, you will understand it perfectly.
Ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah tsy ho afaka ambara-panefany sy ambara-panatanterany ny hevitry ny fony; Mbola ho fantatrareo marimarina izany any am-parany.
21 I didn’t send these prophets, yet they ran. I didn’t speak to them, yet they prophesied.
Tsy naniraka ireo mpaminany ireo Aho, kanefa nidodododo ihany izy, tsy niteny taminy Aho, kanefa naminany ihany izy.
22 But if they had stood in my council, then they would have caused my people to hear my words, and would have turned them from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings.
Fa raha isan’ ny mpihevitra teo amiko izy, dia ho nitory ny teniko tamin’ ny oloko izy ka namerina azy hiala tamin’ ny lalany ratsy sy tamin’ ny faharatsian’ ny nataony.
23 “Am I a God at hand,” says the LORD, “and not a God afar off?
Moa Andriamanitra etỳ akaiky ihany va Aho? hoy Jehovah. Fa tsy Andriamanitra any lavitra any koa?
24 Can anyone hide himself in secret places so that I can’t see him?” says the LORD. “Don’t I fill heaven and earth?” says the LORD.
Moa misy olona mahafin-tena ao amin’ ny fierena va ka tsy ho hitako? hoy Jehovah. Tsy manerana ny lanitra sy ny tany va Aho? hoy Jehovah.
25 “I have heard what the prophets have said, who prophesy lies in my name, saying, ‘I had a dream! I had a dream!’
Efa reko ny nolazain’ ny mpaminany, Izay naminany lainga tamin’ ny anarako hoe: Nanonofy aho, nanonofy aho.
26 How long will this be in the heart of the prophets who prophesy lies, even the prophets of the deceit of their own heart?
Mandra-pahoviana? Moa ao am-pon’ ireo mpaminany izay maminany lainga sy maminany araka ny fitaky ny fony va?
27 They intend to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they each tell his neighbour, as their fathers forgot my name because of Baal.
Ny hampanadino ny oloko ny anarako amin’ ny nofiny izay lazainy amin’ ny namany avy, toy ny nanadinoan’ ny razany ny anarako noho ny amin’ i Bala?
28 The prophet who has a dream, let him tell a dream; and he who has my word, let him speak my word faithfully. What is the straw to the wheat?” says the LORD.
Ny mpaminany izay manonofy dia aoka hilaza nofy, ary izay manana ny teniko dia aoka hanambara marina ny teniko. Fa moa inona izay mololo, raha oharina amin’ ny vary? hoy Jehovah.
29 “Isn’t my word like fire?” says the LORD; “and like a hammer that breaks the rock in pieces?
Tsy tahaka ny afo va ny teniko? hoy Jehovah, ary tsy tahaka ny kanonta manorotoro ny vatolampy va?
30 “Therefore behold, I am against the prophets,” says the LORD, “who each steal my words from his neighbour.
Koa, indro, fa hasiako ny mpaminany, hoy Jehovah, izay samy mangalatra ny teniko amin’ ny namany avy.
31 Behold, I am against the prophets,” says the LORD, “who use their tongues, and say, ‘He says.’
Indro, hoy Jehovah, hasiako ny mpaminany, izay mampiteny ny lelany hoe: Hoy Izy.
32 Behold, I am against those who prophesy lying dreams,” says the LORD, “who tell them, and cause my people to err by their lies, and by their vain boasting; yet I didn’t send them or command them. They don’t profit this people at all,” says the LORD.
Indro, hasiako izay maminany nofy lainga, hoy Jehovah, ary milaza izany ka mampivily ny oloko amin’ ny laingany sy ny fandokafany tena; Nefa Izaho tsy naniraka azy na nandidy azy tsinona, ka dia tsy mahasoa ity firenena ity akory izy, hoy Jehovah.
33 “When this people, or the prophet, or a priest, asks you, saying, ‘What is the message from the LORD?’ Then you shall tell them, ‘“What message? I will cast you off,” says the LORD.’
Ary raha manontany anao ity firenena ity, na ny mpaminany, na ny mpisorona, ka manao hoe: Inona no entan’ i Jehovah? Dia ataovy aminy hoe: Ny amin’ ny entana hariako ianareo, hoy Jehovah.
34 As for the prophet, the priest, and the people, who say, ‘The message from the LORD,’ I will even punish that man and his household.
Ary ny mpaminany sy ny mpisorona mbamin’ ny vahoaka, izay manao hoe: Ny entan’ i Jehovah. Dia hovaliako izany olona izany mbamin’ ny ankohonany.
35 You will say everyone to his neighbour, and everyone to his brother, ‘What has the LORD answered?’ and, ‘What has the LORD said?’
Samia manontany amin’ ny namany sy ny rahalahiny avy ianareo hoe: Ahoana no navalin’ i Jehovah? Ary ahoana no nolazain’ i Jehovah?
36 You will mention the message from the LORD no more, for every man’s own word has become his message; for you have perverted the words of the living God, of the LORD of Hosts, our God.
Fa ny hoe: Ny entan’ i Jehovah dia tsy hotononinareo intsony; Fa ny tenin’ ny olona avy ihany no ho entan’ ny tenany, satria efa navadikareo ny tenin’ Andriamanitra velona, dia Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Andriamanitsika.
37 You will say to the prophet, ‘What has the LORD answered you?’ and, ‘What has the LORD spoken?’
Izao no hanontanianareo amin’ ny mpaminany; Ahoana no navalin’ i Jehovah anao? Ary ahoana no nolazain’ i Jehovah?
38 Although you say, ‘The message from the LORD,’ therefore the LORD says: ‘Because you say this word, “The message from the LORD,” and I have sent to you, telling you not to say, “The message from the LORD,”
Fa raha hoy ianareo: Entan’ i Jehovah, Dia izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Noho ny nilazanareo ny teny hoe: Ny entan’ i Jehovah, nefa efa nanirahako ihany ianareo nataoko hoe: Aza manao hoe: Ny entan’ i Jehovah,
39 therefore behold, I will utterly forget you, and I will cast you off with the city that I gave to you and to your fathers, away from my presence.
Dia, indro, hanadino anareo tokoa Aho sady hanary anareo mbamin’ ny tanàna izay nomeko anareo sy ny razanareo tsy ho eo anatrehako;
40 I will bring an everlasting reproach on you, and a perpetual shame, which will not be forgotten.’”
Ary hataoko mihatra aminareo ny fahafaham-baraka mandrakizay sy ny fahamenarana mandrakizay izay tsy hohadinoina.
