Jeremiah 38

Ary Safatia, zanak'i Matana, sy Gedalia, zanak'i Pasora, sy Jokala, zanak'i Semelia, ary Pasora, zanak'i Malkia, dia nandre ny teny izay efa nolazain'i Jeremia tamin'ny vahoaka rehetra nanao hoe:

Then Shephatiah the son of Mattan, and Gedaliah the son of Pashur, and Jucal the son of Shelemiah, and Pashur the son of Malchiah, heard the words that Jeremiah had spoken unto all the people, saying,

Izao no lazain'i Jehovah: Izay mitoetra amin'ity tanàna ity dia ho fatin-tsabatra sy mosary ary areti-mandringana; fa izay mivoaka hanatona ny Kaldeana kosa no ho velona; fa ny ainy no ho babony, ka ho velona izy.

Thus saith the LORD, He that remaineth in this city shall die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence: but he that goeth forth to the Chaldeans shall live; for he shall have his life for a prey, and shall live.

Izao no lazain'i Jehovah: Ity tanàna ity dia hatolotra eo an-tànan'ny miaramilan'ny mpanjakan'i Babylona tokoa ka ho afany.

Thus saith the LORD, This city shall surely be given into the hand of the king of Babylon's army, which shall take it.

Dia hoy ny mpanapaka tamin'ny mpanjaka: Trarantitra ianao, aoka hovonoina ity lehilahy ity; fa mampiraviravy tanana ny miaramila izay sisa amin'ity tanàna ity mbamin'ny olona rehetra izy noho ny nitenenany taminy araka izany teny izany; fa ity lehilahy ity tsy mba mitady izay hiadanan'ity firenena ity, fa izay hahatonga loza aminy kosa.

Therefore the princes said unto the king, We beseech thee, let this man be put to death: for thus he weakeneth the hands of the men of war that remain in this city, and the hands of all the people, in speaking such words unto them: for this man seeketh not the welfare of this people, but the hurt.

Dia hoy Zedekia mpanjaka: Indro, eo an-tananareo izy; fa ny mpanjaka tsy mahefa na inona na inona hisakana anareo.

Then Zedekiah the king said, Behold, he is in your hand: for the king is not he that can do any thing against you.

Ary naka an'i Jeremia izy ka nandatsaka azy tao amin'ny lavaka famorian-dranon'i Malkia, zanak'andriana, izay tao amin'ny kianjan'ny trano fiambenana; ary nampidininy tamin'ny mahazaka Jeremia. Ary tsy nisy rano tao amin'ny lavaka, fa fotaka fotsiny ihany, ka dia nilentika tamin'ny fotaka Jeremia.

Then took they Jeremiah, and cast him into the dungeon of Malchiah the son of Hammelech, that was in the court of the prison: and they let down Jeremiah with cords. And in the dungeon there was no water, but mire: so Jeremiah sunk in the mire.

Ary Ebeda-meleka Etiopiana, tandapa anankiray tao amin'ny tranon'ny mpanjaka, raha nandre ny nandatsahany an'i Jeremia tao amin'ny lavaka (nipetraka teo amin'ny vavahadin'ny Benjamina ny mpanjaka androtr'iny),

Now when Ebed–melech the Ethiopian, one of the eunuchs which was in the king's house, heard that they had put Jeremiah in the dungeon; the king then sitting in the gate of Benjamin;

dia nivoaka avy tao an-tranon'ny mpanjaka izy ka nanao tamin'ny mpanjaka hoe:

Ebed–melech went forth out of the king's house, and spake to the king, saying,

Ry tompokolahy mpanjaka, ratsy avokoa izay rehetra nataon'ity firenena ity tamin'i Jeremia mpaminany, fa nataony tao an-davaka izy ka ho faty mosary ao amin'izay itoerany, satria tsy misy mofo intsony ato an-tanàna.

My lord the king, these men have done evil in all that they have done to Jeremiah the prophet, whom they have cast into the dungeon; and he is like to die for hunger in the place where he is: for there is no more bread in the city.

Ary ny mpanjaka nandidy an'i Ebeda-meleta Etiopiana hoe: Mitondrà telo-polo lahy hiaraka aminao hampakatra an'i Jeremia mpaminany hiala ao anaty lavaka, dieny tsy mbola maty izy.

Then the king commanded Ebed–melech the Ethiopian, saying, Take from hence thirty men with thee, and take up Jeremiah the prophet out of the dungeon, before he die.

Ary Ebeda-meleka nitondra ny olona niaraka taminy, ka dia lasa nankany amin'ny tranon'ny mpanjaka eo ambanin'ny trano firaketana, ary naka lamba rovitra sy vorodamba tao izy, ka nampidininy tamin'ny mahazaka ho ao amin'ny lavaka izany ho ao amin'i Jeremia.

So Ebed–melech took the men with him, and went into the house of the king under the treasury, and took thence old cast clouts and old rotten rags, and let them down by cords into the dungeon to Jeremiah.

Dia hoy Ebeda-meleka Etiopiana tamin'i Jeremia: Ataovy eo ambanin'ny helikao ireto lamba rovitra sy vorodamba ireto ho efitry ny mahazaka, dia nataon'i Jeremia izany;

And Ebed–melech the Ethiopian said unto Jeremiah, Put now these old cast clouts and rotten rags under thine armholes under the cords. And Jeremiah did so.

ka dia nosintoniny tamin'ny mahazaka Jeremia ka nakariny avy tao anaty lavaka, ary dia nitoetra teo amin'ny kianjan'ny trano fiambenana izy.

So they drew up Jeremiah with cords, and took him up out of the dungeon: and Jeremiah remained in the court of the prison.

Ary Zedekia mpanjaka naniraka naka an'i Jeremia mpaminany hankao aminy tao amin'ny fidirana fahatelo, izay ao an-tranon'i Jehovah. Dia hoy ny mpanjaka tamin'i Jeremia: Hanontany zavatra kely aminao aho, ka aza anafenana.

Then Zedekiah the king sent, and took Jeremiah the prophet unto him into the third entry that is in the house of the LORD: and the king said unto Jeremiah, I will ask thee a thing; hide nothing from me.

Ary hoy Jeremia tamin'i Zedekia: Raha ambarako anao, dia tsy hovonoinao tokoa va re aho? Fa na dia omeko saina aza ianao, dia tsy hihaino ahy tsinona.

Then Jeremiah said unto Zedekiah, If I declare it unto thee, wilt thou not surely put me to death? and if I give thee counsel, wilt thou not hearken unto me?

Ary Zedekia mpanjaka nianiana mangingina tamin'i Jeremia nanao hoe: Raha velona koa Jehovah, Izay nanao izao fanahintsika izao, dia tsy hamono anao tokoa aho, na hanolotra anao eo an-tànan'ireto olona mitady ny ainao ireto.

So Zedekiah the king sware secretly unto Jeremiah, saying, As the LORD liveth, that made us this soul, I will not put thee to death, neither will I give thee into the hand of these men that seek thy life.

Dia hoy Jeremia tamin'i Zedekia: Izao ary no lazain'i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny maro, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely: Raha mivoaka hanatona ny mpanapaky ny mpanjakan'i Babylona tokoa ianao, dia ho velona ny ainao, sady tsy hodorana amin'ny afo ity tanàna ity, fa ho velona ianao sy ny mpianakavinao;

Then said Jeremiah unto Zedekiah, Thus saith the LORD, the God of hosts, the God of Israel; If thou wilt assuredly go forth unto the king of Babylon's princes, then thy soul shall live, and this city shall not be burned with fire; and thou shalt live, and thine house:

fa raha tsy mivoaka hanatona ny mpanapaky ny mpanjakan'i Babylona kosa ianao, dia hatolotra eo an-tànan'ny Kaldeana ity tanàna ity, sady hodorany amin'ny afo izy, ary tsy ho afa-mandositra ny tànany ianao.

But if thou wilt not go forth to the king of Babylon's princes, then shall this city be given into the hand of the Chaldeans, and they shall burn it with fire, and thou shalt not escape out of their hand.

Ary hoy Zedekia mpanjaka tamin'i Jeremia: Matahotra ny Jiosy izay efa nanatona ny Kaldeana aho, fandrao hatolony eo an-tànany aho ka hataony fihomehezana.

And Zedekiah the king said unto Jeremiah, I am afraid of the Jews that are fallen to the Chaldeans, lest they deliver me into their hand, and they mock me.

Fa hoy Jeremia: Tsy hanolotra anao izy tsy akory. Trarantitra ianao, ankatoavy ny tenin'i Jehovah, izay lazaiko aminao, mba hahita soa ianao, ka ho velona ny ainao.

But Jeremiah said, They shall not deliver thee. Obey, I beseech thee, the voice of the LORD, which I speak unto thee: so it shall be well unto thee, and thy soul shall live.

Fa raha tsy mety mivoaka kosa ianao, dia izao no teny efa nasehon'i Jehovah ahy:

But if thou refuse to go forth, this is the word that the LORD hath shewed me:

Indreo, ny vehivavy rehetra izay sisa ao an-tranon'ny mpanjakan'ny Joda dia ho entina mivoaka ho any amin'ny mpanapaky ny mpanjakan'i Babylona, ary ireo vehivavy ireo dia hanao hoe: Ireo sakaizanao no nitaona anao sady naharesy anao; Ary latsaka tao amin'ny honahona ny tongotrao, dia nilaozany nihemotra ianao.

And, behold, all the women that are left in the king of Judah's house shall be brought forth to the king of Babylon's princes, and those women shall say, Thy friends have set thee on, and have prevailed against thee: thy feet are sunk in the mire, and they are turned away back.

Ny vadinao rehetra sy ny zanakao dia ho entina mivoaka ho any amin'ny Kaldeana; ary ianao tsy ho afa-mandositra ny tànany, fa ho azon'ny tanan'ny mpanjakan'i Babylona; ary noho ianao no handoroana ity tanàna ity amin'ny afo.

So they shall bring out all thy wives and thy children to the Chaldeans: and thou shalt not escape out of their hand, but shalt be taken by the hand of the king of Babylon: and thou shalt cause this city to be burned with fire.

Dia hoy Zedekia tamin'i Jeremia: Aoka tsy ho ren'olona ary izany teny izany, mba tsy ho faty ianao.

Then said Zedekiah unto Jeremiah, Let no man know of these words, and thou shalt not die.

Fa raha ren'ny mpanapaka fa niresaka taminao aho, ary tonga aminao izy ka manao aminao hoe: Ambarao aminay ankehitriny izay nolazainao tamin'ny mpanjaka, aza afenina anay, fa tsy hamono anao izahay; ary ambarao koa izay nolazain'ny mpanjaka taminao;

But if the princes hear that I have talked with thee, and they come unto thee, and say unto thee, Declare unto us now what thou hast said unto the king, hide it not from us, and we will not put thee to death; also what the king said unto thee:

dia ataovy aminy hoe: Noborahina teo anatrehan'ny mpanjaka ny fifonako, mba tsy hamerenany ahy ho faty any amin'ny tranon'i Jonatana.

Then thou shalt say unto them, I presented my supplication before the king, that he would not cause me to return to Jonathan's house, to die there.

Ary nankany amin'i Jeremia ny mpanapaka rehetra ka nanontany azy; dia nolazainy taminy araka izay teny rehetra nandidian'ny mpanjaka azy. Ary tsy niresaka taminy intsony ireo, ka dia tsy re ny raharaha.

Then came all the princes unto Jeremiah, and asked him: and he told them according to all these words that the king had commanded. So they left off speaking with him; for the matter was not perceived.

Ary Jeremia nitoetra teo amin'ny kianjan'ny trano fiambenana mandra-pahatongan'ny andro nanafahana an'i Jerosalema.

So Jeremiah abode in the court of the prison until the day that Jerusalem was taken: and he was there when Jerusalem was taken.
