< Isaiah 64 >

1 Oh that thou wouldest rend the heavens, that thou wouldest come down, that the mountains might flow down at thy presence,
Enga anie ka hotriarinao ny lanitra mba hidinanao, ka hihorohoro eo anoloanao ny tendrombohitra,
2 As [when] the melting fire burneth, the fire causeth the waters to boil, to make thy name known to thine adversaries, [that] the nations may tremble at thy presence!
Dia tahaka ny fandevon’ ny afony tapa-kazo maina sy ny fampangotraky ny afo ny rano mba hampahafantatra ny fahavalonao ny anaranao ka hangovitra eo anoloanao ny jentilisa.
3 When thou didst terrible things [which] we looked not for, thou camest down, the mountains flowed down at thy presence.
Raha nanao zava-mahatahotra izay tsy nantenainay Hianao, dia nidina, ka nihorohoro teo anoloanao ny tendrombohitra.
4 For since the beginning of the world [men] have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen, O God, beside thee, [what] he hath prepared for him that waiteth for him.
Fa hatrizay hatrizay dia tsy mbola ren’ ny olona, na nohenoiny, Na hitan’ ny masony, Izay Andriamanitra miasa ho an’ ny miandry Azy afa-tsy Hianao.
5 Thou meetest him that rejoiceth and worketh righteousness, [those that] remember thee in thy ways: behold, thou art wroth; for we have sinned: in those is continuance, and we shall be saved.
Mitsena izay mifaly hanao ny marina Hianao, dia izay mahatsiaro Anao amin’ ny lalanao; indro, Hianao dia tezitra, ary hita fa meloka izahay; Hatramin’ ny ela dia izany no toetray, ka dia hovonjena va?
6 But we are all as an unclean [thing], and all our righteousnesses [are] as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
Fa samy efa tahaka ny olo-maloto izahay rehetra, ary tahaka ny lamba mihosin-drà ny fahamarinanay rehetra; Malazo tahaka ny ravina izahay rehetra, ary ny helokay mipaoka anay tahaka ny rivotra,
7 And [there is] none that calleth upon thy name, that stirreth up himself to take hold of thee: for thou hast hid thy face from us, and hast consumed us, because of our iniquities.
Tsy misy miantso ny anaranao, na mifoha hifikitra aminao; fa efa nanafina ny tavanao taminay Hianao ka nandevona anay noho ny helokay.
8 But now, O LORD, thou [art] our father; we [are] the clay, and thou our potter; and we all [are] the work of thy hand.
Fa ankehitriny, Jehovah ô, rainay Hianao; izahay dia tanimanga, ary Hianao no mpanefy anay, ary asan’ ny tananao izahay rehetra.
9 Be not wroth very sore, O LORD, neither remember iniquity for ever: behold, see, we beseech thee, we [are] all thy people.
Aza dia tezitra mafy loatra, Jehovah ô. Ary aza dia mahatsiaro heloka mandrakizay; masìna Hianao, tsinjovy, fa olonao izahay rehetra.
10 Thy holy cities are a wilderness, Zion is a wilderness, Jerusalem a desolation.
Tonga efitra ireo tanànanao masìna, Eny, tany lavavolo Ziona, ary efa lao Jerosalema.
11 Our holy and our beautiful house, where our fathers praised thee, is burned up with fire: and all our pleasant things are laid waste.
Ny tranonay masìna sady mendrika, Izay nideran’ ny razanay Anao, dia voadotry ny afo, ary rava ny zavatray mahafinaritra rehetra.
12 Wilt thou refrain thyself for these [things], O LORD? wilt thou hold thy peace, and afflict us very sore?
Ary mbola mahatsindry fo amin’ izany zavatra izany ihany va Hianao, Jehovah ô? Hangina va Hianao ka hampahory anay mafy loatra?
