Jeremiah 10

Hear ye the word which the LORD speaketh unto you, O house of Israel:

Henoy ny teny izay lazain'i Jehovah aminareo, ry taranak'Isiraely!

Thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen 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.

For the customs of the people are vain: for one cutteth 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;

They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not.

Volafotsy sy volamena no an-dravahany azy, ary hombo sy tantanana no entiny manamafy azy, mba tsy hihetsiketehany.

They are upright as the palm tree, but speak not: they must needs be borne, because they cannot go. Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do evil, neither also 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.

Forasmuch as there is none like unto thee, O LORD; thou art great, and thy name is great in might.

Tsy misy tokoa izay tahaka Anao, Jehovah ô; Lehibe Hianao, ary lehibe amin'ny hery ny anaranao.

Who would not fear thee, O King of nations? for to thee doth it appertain: forasmuch as among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their kingdoms, there is none like unto thee.

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.

But they are altogether brutish and foolish: the stock is a doctrine of vanities.

Fa ketrina sy adala avokoa izy rehetra; He! fananaram-poana! fa tapa-kazo ihany.

Silver spread into plates is brought from Tarshish, and gold from Uphaz, the work of the workman, and of the hands of the founder: blue and purple is their clothing: they are all the work of cunning 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.

But the LORD is the true God, he is the living God, and an everlasting king: at his wrath the earth shall tremble, and the nations shall not be able to abide 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

Thus shall ye say unto them, The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth, even they shall perish from the earth, and from under these 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)

He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and hath stretched out the heavens by his discretion.

Dia Ilay nanao ny tany tamin'ny heriny sy nampiorina izao tontolo izao tamin'ny fahendreny ary namelatra ny lanitra tamin'ny fisainany.

When he uttereth his voice, there is a multitude of waters in the heavens, and he causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth; he maketh lightnings with rain, and bringeth forth the wind out of his treasures.

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.

Every man is brutish in his knowledge: every founder is confounded by the graven 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.

They are vanity, and the work of errors: in the time of their visitation they shall perish.

Zava-poana ireny, dia asa mahatsikaiky foana; Amin'ny andro hamaliana azy dia ho levona izy.

The portion of Jacob is not like them: for he is the former of all things; and Israel is the rod 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.

Gather up thy wares out of the land, O inhabitant of the fortress.

Angony ny korontan'entanao, ka ento hiala amin'ny tany, ry ilay mipetraka ao amin'ny haterena!

For thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will sling out the inhabitants of the land at this once, and will distress them, that they may find it so.

Fa izao no lazain'i Jehovah: Indro, hatorako ho indray misidina toy ny vaton'antsamotady ny mponina amin'ny tany, ary hataoko tery izy mba hahitany.

Woe is me for my hurt! my wound is grievous: but I said, Truly this is a 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.

My tabernacle is spoiled, and all my cords are broken: my children are gone forth of me, and they are not: there is none to stretch forth my tent any more, and 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.

For the pastors are become brutish, and have not sought the LORD: therefore they shall not prosper, and all their flocks shall be 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.

Behold, the noise of the bruit is come, and a great commotion out of the north country, to make the cities of Judah desolate, and a den of dragons.

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.

O LORD, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps.

Jehovah ô, fantatro fa tsy an'ny olombelona ny lalan-kalehany, na an'ny mpandeha ny hahalavorary ny diany

O LORD, correct me, but with judgment; not in thine anger, lest thou bring me to nothing.

Jehovah ô, anaro aho, nefa araka ny antonony ihany, fa tsy amin'ny fahatezeranao, fandrao hataonao tonga tsinontsinona aho.

Pour out thy fury upon the heathen that know thee not, and upon the families that call not on thy name: for they have eaten up Jacob, and devoured him, and consumed him, and have made his habitation desolate.

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.
