Jeremiah 29

Now these are the words of the letter that Jeremiah the prophet sent from Jerusalem unto the residue of the elders which were carried away captives, and to the priests, and to the prophets, and to all the people whom Nebuchadnezzar had carried away captive from Jerusalem to Babylon;

Ary izao no fitenin'ny taratasy izay nampitondrain'i Jeremia mpaminany avy tany Jerosalema ho any amin'ny sisa amin'ny loholona voababo sy ho amin'ny mpisorona sy ny mpaminany ary ny vahoaka rehetra, izay nobaboin'i Nebokadnezara ka nentiny avy tany Jerosalema ho any Babylona

(After that Jeconiah the king, and the queen, and the eunuchs, the princes of Judah and Jerusalem, and the carpenters, and the smiths, were departed from Jerusalem;)

(rehefa lasa niala tany Jerosalema Jekonia mpanjaka sy ny reniny sy ny tandapa sy ny mpanapaka ny Joda sy Jerosalema mbamin'ny mahay tao-zavatra sy ny mpanefy vy),

By the hand of Elasah the son of Shaphan, and Gemariah the son of Hilkiah, (whom Zedekiah king of Judah sent unto Babylon to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon) saying,

dia ilay teny nampitondrainy an'i Elasa, zanak'i Safana, sy Gemaria, zanak'i Hilkia, izay nirahin'i Zedekia, mpanjakan'ny Joda, ho any Babylona, ho any amin'i Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan'i Babylona, nanao hoe:

Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, unto all that are carried away captives, whom I have caused to be carried away from Jerusalem unto Babylon;

Izao no lazain'i Jehovah, Tompon'ny maro, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, amin'ny babo rehetra izay natolotro ho babo avy tany Jerosalema ho any Babylona:

Build ye houses, and dwell in them; and plant gardens, and eat the fruit of them;

Manaova trano ianareo, ka mitoera aminy; ary manaova tanimboly, ka hano ny vokatra avy aminy.

Take ye wives, and beget sons and daughters; and take wives for your sons, and give your daughters to husbands, that they may bear sons and daughters; that ye may be increased there, and not diminished.

Manambadia, ka miteraha zazalahy sy zazavavy; analao vady ny zanakalahinareo, ary ampanambadio ny zanakavavinareo, mba hiterahany zazalahy sy zazavavy, ka hihamaro anie ianareo, fa tsy hihavitsy.

And seek the peace of the city whither I have caused you to be carried away captives, and pray unto the LORD for it: for in the peace thereof shall ye have peace.

Ary katsaho izay hiadanan'ny tanàna izay nampandehanako anareo ho babo, ary mivavaha amin'i Jehovah ho azy; fa raha miadana izy, dia mba hiadana koa ianareo.

For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Let not your prophets and your diviners, that be in the midst of you, deceive you, neither hearken to your dreams which ye cause to be dreamed.

Fa izao no lazain'i Jehovah, Tompon'ny maro, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely: Aza mety hofitahin'ny mpaminaninareo sy ny mpanao fankatovanareo, izay ao aminareo, ary aza mino ny nofinareo izay nofisinareo.

For they prophesy falsely unto you in my name: I have not sent them, saith the LORD.

Fa lainga no vinaniny aminareo amin'ny anarako; tsy naniraka azy Aho, hoy Jehovah.

For thus saith the LORD, That after seventy years be accomplished at Babylon I will visit you, and perform my good word toward you, in causing you to return to this place.

Fa izao no lazain'i Jehovah: Rehefa tapitra ny fito-polo taona ny amin'i Babylona, dia hamangy anareo Aho, fa hotanterahiko aminareo ny teniko tsara, ka hampodiko ho amin'ity tany ity ianareo.

For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.

Fa Izaho mahalala ny hevitra iheverako anareo, hoy Jehovah, dia hevitra hahatonga fiadanana, fa tsy loza, mba hanome anareo fanantenana ny amin'ny farany.

Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you.

Ary hiantso Ahy ianareo ka handeha sy hivavaka amiko, dia hihaino anareo Aho.

And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.

Ary hitady Ahy ianareo, dia ho hitanareo Aho, raha katsahinareo amin'ny fonareo rehetra.

And I will be found of you, saith the LORD: and I will turn away your captivity, and I will gather you from all the nations, and from all the places whither I have driven you, saith the LORD; and I will bring you again into the place whence I caused you to be carried away captive.

Eny, ho hitanareo Aho, hoy Jehovah; ary hampodiko avy amin'ny fahababoana ianareo, ka hangoniko avy any amin'ny firenena rehetra sy avy any amin'ny tany rehetra izay nandroahako anareo, hoy Jehovah, ka hampodiko ho any amin'ilay tany efa nanolorako anareo hobaboina.

Because ye have said, The LORD hath raised us up prophets in Babylon;

Fa hoy ianareo: Jehovah nanangana mpaminany ho anay eto Babylona.

Know that thus saith the LORD of the king that sitteth upon the throne of David, and of all the people that dwelleth in this city, and of your brethren that are not gone forth with you into captivity;

Fa izao no lazain'i Jehovah ny amin'ny mpanjaka izay mipetraka eo amin'ny seza fiandrianan'i Davida sy ny amin'ny vahoaka rehetra izay monina amin'ity tanàna ity, dia ny rahalahinareo izay tsy mba lasan-ko babo niaraka taminareo.

Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Behold, I will send upon them the sword, the famine, and the pestilence, and will make them like vile figs, that cannot be eaten, they are so evil.

izao no lazain'i Jehovah, Tompon'ny maro: Indro, hampameleziko azy ny sabatra sy ny mosary ary ny areti-mandringana, ka hataoko toy ny aviavy ratsy dia ratsy izay tsy azo hanina noho ny haratsiny izy.

And I will persecute them with the sword, with the famine, and with the pestilence, and will deliver them to be removed to all the kingdoms of the earth, to be a curse, and an astonishment, and an hissing, and a reproach, among all the nations whither I have driven them:

Ary henjehiko amin'ny sabatra sy ny mosary ary ny areti-mandringana izy ka hatolotro ho mpanjenjena any amin'ny fanjakana rehetra ambonin'ny tany, ho fanozonana sy figagana sy zavatra mampisitrisitra sy fandatsa ho an'ny firenena izay nandroahako, azy

Because they have not hearkened to my words, saith the LORD, which I sent unto them by my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them; but ye would not hear, saith the LORD.

noho ny tsy nihainoany ny teniko, hoy Jehovah, izay nampitondraiko ny mpaminany mpanompoko ho any aminy, teny, nifoha maraina koa Aho ka naniraka azy, nefa tsy nihaino ianareo, hoy Jehovah.

Hear ye therefore the word of the LORD, all ye of the captivity, whom I have sent from Jerusalem to Babylon:

Koa mihainoa ny tenin'i Jehovah, ianareo babo rehetra izay nesoriko tany Jerosalema ho atỳ Babylona.

Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, of Ahab the son of Kolaiah, and of Zedekiah the son of Maaseiah, which prophesy a lie unto you in my name; Behold, I will deliver them into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon; and he shall slay them before your eyes;

Izao no lazain'i Jehovah, Tompon'ny maro, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, ny amin'i Ahaba, zanak'i Kolaia, sy ny amin'i Zedekia, zanak'i Mahaseia, izay maminany lainga aminareo amin'ny anarako: Indro, hatolotro eo an-tanan'i Nebokadnezara, mpanjakan'i Babylona, izy, ka dia hovonoiny eo imasonareo.

And of them shall be taken up a curse by all the captivity of Judah which are in Babylon, saying, The LORD make thee like Zedekiah and like Ahab, whom the king of Babylon roasted in the fire;

Ary izy roa lahy dia hataon'ny babo rehetra amin'ny Joda izay any Babylona ho fanozonana hoe: Hataon'i Jehovah tahaka an'i Zedekia sy Ahaba, izay nodoran'ny mpanjakan'i Babylona tamin'ny afo, anie ianao,

Because they have committed villany in Israel, and have committed adultery with their neighbours' wives, and have spoken lying words in my name, which I have not commanded them; even I know, and am a witness, saith the LORD.

noho ny nanaovany izay fady indrindra tao amin'ny Isiraely sy ny nijangajangany tamin'ny vadin'ny namany ary ny nitenenany lainga tamin'ny anarako, izay tsy nandidiako azy; Izaho no mahalala, ka ho vavolombelona Aho, hoy Jehovah.

Thus shalt thou also speak to Shemaiah the Nehelamite, saying,

Ary Semaia Nehelamita dia hilazanao hoe:

Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, saying, Because thou hast sent letters in thy name unto all the people that are at Jerusalem, and to Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah the priest, and to all the priests, saying,

Izao no lazain'i Jehovah, Tompon'ny maro, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely: Noho ny nampitondranao taratasy tamin'ny anaranao ho amin'ny vahoaka rehetra izay any Jerosalema sy amin'i Zefania mpisorona, zanak'i Mahaseia, ary amin'ny mpisorona rehetra hafa koa nanao hoe:

The LORD hath made thee priest in the stead of Jehoiada the priest, that ye should be officers in the house of the LORD, for every man that is mad, and maketh himself a prophet, that thou shouldest put him in prison, and in the stocks.

Jehovah efa nanao anao ho mpisorona ho solon'i Joiada mpisorona, mba hanendry izay ho mpiandraikitra ny tranon'i Jehovah, hisakana izay rehetra very saina sy manao azy ho mpaminany, ka dia hasianao boloky hazo ny vozony sy ny tongony;

Now therefore why hast thou not reproved Jeremiah of Anathoth, which maketh himself a prophet to you?

koa nahoana ianao no tsy nananatra mafy an'i Jeremia avy any Anatota, izay manao azy ho mpaminany aminareo?

For therefore he sent unto us in Babylon, saying, This captivity is long: build ye houses, and dwell in them; and plant gardens, and eat the fruit of them.

Fa naniraka ho aminay any Babylona izy nanao hoe: Mbola haharitra ela izao, koa manaova trano ianareo, dia mitoera aminy, ary manaova tanimboly, ka hano ny vokatra aminy.

And Zephaniah the priest read this letter in the ears of Jeremiah the prophet.

Ary Zefania mpisorona namaky izany taratasy izany teo anatrehan'i Jeremia mpaminany.

Then came the word of the LORD unto Jeremiah, saying,

Dia tonga tamin'i Jeremia ny tenin'i Jehovah hoe:

Send to all them of the captivity, saying, Thus saith the LORD concerning Shemaiah the Nehelamite; Because that Shemaiah hath prophesied unto you, and I sent him not, and he caused you to trust in a lie:

Maniraha ho any amin'ny babo rehetra, ka lazao aminy hoe: Izao no lazain'i Jehovah ny amin'i Semaia Nehelamita: Noho ny naminanian'i Semaia taminareo, kanefa tsy nirahiko izy tsinona, fa nampitoky anareo tamin'ny lainga

Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will punish Shemaiah the Nehelamite, and his seed: he shall not have a man to dwell among this people; neither shall he behold the good that I will do for my people, saith the LORD; because he hath taught rebellion against the LORD.

dia izao no lazain'i Jehovah: Indro, efa hamaly an'i Semaia Nehelamita sy ny taranany Aho: tsy hanana zanakalahy honina amin'ity firenena ity izy sady tsy hanam-pifaliana amin'ny hahitana ny soa izay hataoko amin'ny oloko, hoy Jehovah, satria fiodinana tamin'i Jehovah no notoriny.
