Ezekiela 37
1 Tao amiko ny tànan’ i Jehovah, ary ny Fanahy no nitondran’ i Jehovah ahy nivoaka, dia napetrany teo amin’ ny lohasaha feno taolana aho.
The hand of the LORD was upon me, and he brought me out by the Spirit of the LORD, and set me down in the midst of the valley; and it was full of bones.
2 Ary nitondra ahy nandehandeha teny amin’ ireo Izy; ary, indreo, betsaka dia betsaka teny amin’ ny lohasaha ireo, ary, indreo, maina dia maina Ireo.
And he led me walk all around among them. And look, there were very many on the surface of the valley, and look, they were very dry.
3 Ary hoy Jebovah tamiko: Ry zanak’ olona, moa mety ho velona ihany va ireto taolana ireto? Ary hoy izaho: Jehovah Tompo ô, Hianao no mahalala.
And he said to me, "Son of man, can these bones live?" And I answered, "LORD, you know."
4 Dia hoy indray Izy tamiko: Maminania amin’ ireto taolana ireto, ka ataovy aminy hoe: Ry taola-maina, mihainoa ny tenin’ i Jehovah!
Then he said to me, "Prophesy over these bones, and tell them, 'Dry bones, hear the word of the LORD.'
5 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo amin’ ireto taolana ireto: Indro, hasiako fofonaina ianareo ka ho velona;
Thus says the LORD to these bones: 'Look, I will cause breath to enter into you, and you will live.
6 ary hasiako ozatra ianareo ka hampaniriko nofo; ary hosaronako hoditra ianareo; ary hasiako fofonaina ianareo ka ho velona; ka dia ho fantatrareo fa Izaho no Jehovah.
And I will put tendons on you, and make flesh grow on you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and you will live. Then you will know that I am the LORD.'"
7 Dia naminany aho araka izay efa nandidiana ahy, ary nony efa naminany aho, dia injany! nisy feo, ary, indreo, nihetsiketsika sady nifanatonatona ny taolana, samy nanatona ny taolana namany avy.
So I prophesied as I was commanded; and as I prophesied, there was a sound, and look, a rattling, and the bones came together, bone to bone.
8 Ary hitako fa, indro, naniry ny ozatra sy ny nofo, ary nisarona hoditra izy, nefa tsy mbola nisy fofonaina tao aminy.
And I watched, and look, there were tendons on them, and flesh grew and skin covered them. But there was no breath in them.
9 Dia hoy Izy tamiko: Maminania amin’ ny fofonaina, eny, maminania, ry zanak’ olona, ka ataovy amin’ ny fofonaina hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Manatona avy amin’ ny rivotra efatra, ry fofonaina, ka tsotsofy ireo voavono ireo, mba ho velona izy.
Then he said to me, "Prophesy to the breath, prophesy, son of man, and tell the breath, 'Thus says the LORD: Come from the four winds, breath, and breathe on these corpses, that they may live.'"
10 Dia naminany araka izay efa nandidiany ahy aho, ka dia nidiran’ ny fofonaina ireo ka velona, dia nijoro tamin’ ny tongony izy maro be dia maro be tokoa.
So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived and stood up on their feet, an exceedingly great army.
11 Dia hoy Izy tamiko: Ry zanak’ olona, ireto taolana ireto dia ny taranak’ Isiraely rehetra; indreo izy manao hoe: Maina ny taolanay, levona ny fanantenanay, fongotra izahay.
Then he said to me, "Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel. Look, they say, 'Our bones are dried up, and our hope is lost; we are completely cut off.'
12 Koa maminania, ka ataovy aminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Indro, ry oloko, Izaho no hanokatra ny fasanareo, ary hampiakariko avy amin’ ny fasanareo ianareo, ka ho entiko ho any amin’ ny tanin’ ny Isiraely;
Therefore prophesy, and tell them, 'Thus says the LORD: Look, I will open your graves and will raise you from your graves, my people. And I will bring you into the land of Israel.
13 ka dia ho fantatrareo fa Izaho no Jehovah, raha manokatra ny fasanareo Aho, ry oloko, ka mampiakatra anareo hiala amin’ ny fasanareo.
And you will know that I am the LORD, when I have opened your graves and raise you up out of your graves, my people.
14 Ary hataoko ao anatinareo ny Fanahiko, dia ho velona ianareo, ary hamponeniko any amin’ ny taninareo ianareo; ka dia ho fantatrareo fa Izaho Jehovah no efa niteny sady nahatanteraka izany, hoy Jehovah.
And I will put my breath in you and you will live, and I will place you in your own land. Then you will know that I am the LORD; I have spoken it and I will do it,' says the LORD."
15 Ary tonga tamiko ny tenin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:
And the word of the LORD came again to me, saying,
16 Ary ianao, ry zanak’ olona, dia mangalà tapa-kazo iray, ka asio soratra hoe: Ho an’ ny Joda sy ho an’ ny zanak’ Isiraely namany; dia mangalà tapa-kazo anankiray koa, ka asio soratra hoe: Ho an’ i Josefa dia tapa-kazon’ i Efraima sy ho an’ ny taranak’ Isiraely namany rehetra.
"And you, son of man, take one stick and write on it, 'For Judah, and the people of Israel associated with him.' Then take another stick and write on it, 'For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim and all the house of Israel associated with him.'
17 Ary ampifanatony izy roa ho tonga tapa-kazo iray ihany, dia ho iray eny an-tananao izy.
Then join them one to another for yourself into one stick, that they may become one in your hand.
18 Ary raha miteny aminao ny zanaky ny firenenao manao hoe: Moa tsy hilaza izay hevitrao amin’ izany va ianao?
And when your people ask you, saying, 'Will you not tell us what these things mean?'
19 dia ataovy aminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Indro, Izaho haka ny tapa-kazon’ i Josefa, izay eny an-tanan’ i Efraima, sy ny firenen’ ny Isiraely namany, ary hakambako ho eo amin’ ny tapa-kazon’ i Joda izy, ary hataoko tapa-kazo iray ihany izy ka ho tonga iray eny an-tanako.
tell them, 'Thus says the LORD: "Look, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel associated with him, and I will put them on it, that is, on the stick of Judah, and make them into one stick, and they will be one in my hand."'
20 Ary ny tapa-kazo izay hasianao soratra dia ho eny an-tananao eo imasony.
And the sticks on which you write on will be in your hand in front of them.
21 Dia lazao aminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Indro, Izaho haka ny zanak’ Isiraely avy any amin’ ny jentilisa izay nalehany, eny, hangoniko avy any amin’ ny manodidina any izy ka ho entiko ho any amin’ ny taniny:
"Then say to them, 'Thus says the LORD: Look, I am going to take the people of Israel from among the nations where they are gone, and will gather them from all around, and bring them into their own land.
22 ary hataoko ho firenena iray any amin’ ny tany izy, dia any an-tendrombohitry ny Isiraely, ary mpanjaka iray ihany no ho mpanjakan’ izy rehetra, ka tsy ho firenena roa intsony izy ary tsy hisaraka ho fanjakana roa intsony.
And I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel, and one king will rule over them, and they will no longer be two nations, and no longer be divided into two kingdoms.
23 Ary tsy handoto tena amin’ ny sampiny, na amin’ ny fahavetavetany, na amin’ ny fahadisoany intsony izy; fa hovonjeko ho afaka amin’ ny fonenany rehetra izay nanotany izy, ary hodioviko izy, ka dia ho oloko, ary Izaho ho Andriamaniny.
And they will no longer defile themselves with their idols, or with their detestable things, or with any of their transgressions. But I will save them from all their unfaithfulness in which they have sinned, and will cleanse them. And will they be my people, and I will be their God.
24 Ary Davida Mpanompoko no ho Mpanjakany; ary hiray Mpiandry izy rehetra, dia handeha araka ny fitsipiko izy sady hitandrina ny lalàko sy hankatò izany.
"'"And my servant David will be king over them; and they will all have one shepherd. And they will walk in my ordinances, and observe my statutes, and do them.
25 Ary honina any amin’ ny tany izay nomeko an’ i Jakoba mpanompoko izy, dia ilay efa nonenan’ ny razanareo, ka honina any izy sy ny zanany mbamin’ ny zafiny mandrakizay; ary Davida mpanompoko no ho Mpanapaka azy mandrakizay.
And they will live in the land that I gave to Jacob my servant, in which your fathers lived; and they and their children and their children's children will live there forever, and David my servant will be their prince forever.
26 Ary hanao fanekem-pihavanana ho azy Aho, ka ho fanekena mandrakizay eo aminy any, ary hametraka sy hahamaro azy Aho sady hametraka ny fitoerako masìna eo aminy mandrakizay.
And I will make a covenant of peace with them; it will be an everlasting covenant with them. And I will give to them and increase their numbers, and will set my sanctuary in their midst forever.
27 Ary ny tabernakeliko ho eo aminy; ary Izaho ho Andriamaniny, ary izy ho oloko.
And my dwelling place will be with them; and I will be their God, and they will be my people.
28 Ka dia ho fantatry ny jentilisa fa Izaho Jehovah no manamasìna ny Isiraely amin’ ny isian’ ny fitoerako masìna eo aminy mandrakizay.
Then the nations will know that I am the LORD who sanctifies Israel, when my sanctuary is in their midst forever."'"
