Ezekiela 17
1 Le niheo amako ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
And the worde of the Lord came vnto mee, saying,
2 O ana’ondatio, taroño ty razan-drehake, naho saontsio tafatoño ty anjomba’ Israele,
Sonne of man, put foorth a parable and speake a prouerbe vnto the house of Israel,
3 ami’ty hoe, Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè, Nivotrake e Libanone ao ty vantio ra’elahy, amañ’ elatse jabajaba naho elatse lava, nohoñem-bolo maro-volo vaho nipetake an-tsampa’ ty mendorave loho abo;
And say, Thus saith the Lord God, The great eagle with great wings, and long wings, and ful of fethers, which had diuers colours, came vnto Lebanon, and tooke the highest branch of the cedar,
4 tsinongo’e ty lengo’e naho nente’e mb’ an-tane bey tsena mb’eo; vaho navotra’e an-drovam-pampibalibalik’ ao.
And brake off the toppe of his twigge, and caried it into the land of marchants, and set it in a citie of marchants.
5 Nangala’e ka ty tabiri’ i taney naho tinongi’e an-teteke kobokara ao; napo’e marine rano bei-henehene eo, vaho najado’e hoe solohotse.
Hee tooke also of the seede of the lande, and planted it in a fruitfull ground: hee placed it by great waters, and set it as a willowe tree.
6 Nibotiboty re, ninjare vahe maro tsampa’e nandrevake naho petrake, vaho nitolike ama’e o singa’eo, fe ambane’e ao o vaha’eo. Aa le ninjare vahe re; nitirian-tora’e naho nampitakare’e mb’eo mb’eo o singa’eo.
And it budded vp, and was like a spreading vine of low stature, whose branches turned toward it, and the rootes thereof were vnder it: so it became a vine, and it brought foorth branches, and shot foorth buds.
7 Teo ka ty vantio ra’elahy amañ’ elatse jabajaba naho volo maro; le heheke te natola’ i vahey mb’ama’e o vaha’ eo, vaho nahiti’e mb’ama’e o tora’eo boak’ amy vavahaly namboleañe aze hanondraha’ey.
There was also another great eagle with great wings and many feathers, and beholde, this vine did turne her rootes toward it, and spred foorth her branches toward it, that she might water it by the trenches of her plantation.
8 Toe nitongise’e an-tane soa marine rano mihenehene, hitiria’ o tora’eo, hiegoego ho vahe soa.
It was planted in a good soyle by great waters, that it should bring forth branches, and beare fruite, and be an excellent vine.
9 Ano ty hoe: Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè, Hiraorao v’izay? Tsy hombota’e hao o vaha’eo naho hampiantoe’e o voa’eo vaho hapo’e hiforejeje—le sindre hiheatse o raven-doha-tao’eo? Le ndra haozaram-bey ndra ondaty mitozantozañe tsy hahafitroats’ aze boak’ ambahatse.
Say thou, Thus saith the Lord God, Shall it prosper? shall he not pull vp the rootes thereof, and destroy the fruite thereof, and cause them to drie? all the leaues of her bud shall wither without great power, or many people, to plucke it vp by the rootes thereof.
10 Oniño, t’ie aketsa eo, hihaveloñe hao? Tsy hiheatse amy zao hao naho iozà’ i tiok’atiñanañey? Toe hiforejeje amo vavahaly nitiria’eo.
Beholde, it was planted: but shall it prosper? shall it not be dried vp, and wither? when the East winde shall touch it, it shall wither in the trenches, where it grewe.
11 Niheo amako indraike ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
Moreouer, the worde of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
12 Saontsio henaneo i anjomba miolay: Fohi’ areo hao ty ango’ i taliliy? Taroño am’ iereo ty hoe: Hehe fa nivotrake e Ierosalaime ty mpanjaka’ i Bavele, naho rinambe’e i mpanjaka’ey naho o roandria’eo, vaho nasese’e mindre ama’e mb’e Bavele mb’eo;
Say now to this rebellious house, Know ye not, what these things meane? tell them, Behold, the King of Babel is come to Ierusalem, and hath taken the King thereof, and the princes thereof, and led them with him to Babel,
13 le rinambe’e ty tiri’ i fifeheañey naho nifañina’e vaho nampifanta’e; fa rinambe’e ka o fanalolahi’ i taneio,
And hath taken one of the Kings seede, and made a couenant with him, and hath taken an othe of him: he hath also taken the princes of the land,
14 soa te hafotsak’ ambane i fifeheañey tsy hiongake ka, soa te ho tana’e ty nifañina’e vaho hirekets’ ama’e.
That the kingdome might be in subiection, and not lift it selfe vp, but keepe their couenant, and stand to it.
15 F’ie niola ami’te nirahe’e mb’e Mitsraime mb’eo o sorotà’eo, hañomeza’ iareo soavala naho ondaty maro. Hiraorao hao re? Hapoke hipoliotse hao ty manao zay? Hadoñe hivongaritse hao i nivalik’ amy fañina’eiy?
But he rebelled against him, and sent his ambassadours into Egypt, that they might giue him horses, and much people: shall hee prosper? shall he escape, that doeth such things? or shall he breake the couenant, and be deliuered?
16 Aa kanao velon-dRaho hoe t’Iehovà Talè, le amy fimoneña’ i mpanjaka’ nañoreñ’ aze ho mpanjakay, ie tsinambolitio’e i nifantà’ey naho nifotera’e i fañina’ey, le añivo’ i Bavele ao ty hihomaha’e.
As I liue, saith the Lord God, he shall die in the middes of Babel, in the place of the King, that had made him King, whose othe he despised, and whose couenant made with him, he brake.
17 Le tsy hahafañolotse aze t’i Parò amo lahin-defoñe mitozantozañeo naho amy valobohò’ey, ie amotria’ iareo tamboho, naho andranjia’e fikalañe fatratse hañitoa’e t’indaty maro,
Neither shall Pharaoh with his mightie hoste, and great multitude of people, mainteine him in the warre, when they haue cast vp mounts, and builded ramparts to destroy many persons.
18 ie nañamavo i fantay, nivalike amy fañinay, naho nanolo-pitàñe mbore nanao ieaby rezay, toe tsy hipoliotse.
For he hath despised the othe, and broken ye couenant (yet lo, he had giuen his hand) because he hath done all these things, he shall not escape.
19 Aa le hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè; Kanao velon-dRaho, le hafoteko añ’ambone’e eo i nifantàko nitsambolitio’ey naho i fañinako navali’ey.
Therefore, thus sayth the Lord God, As I liue, I wil surely bring mine othe that he hath despised, and my couenant that he hath broken vpon his owne head.
20 Le halafiko ama’e ty haratoko, naho ho tsepaheñe an-koboko ao, le Zaho ty hanese aze mb’e Bavele añe, hizaka aze amo fandilarañe niolà’e amakoo.
And I wil spread my net vpon him, and he shalbe taken in my net, and I wil bring him to Babel, and will enter into iudgement with him there for his trespas that he hath committed against me.
21 Sindre hampikorovohe’ ty fibara o gike ama’eo naho o fonga lahin-defo’eo, naho songa hampiparatsaheñe mb’amo tiokeo mb’eo ze sehanga’e; ho fohi’ areo te Zaho Iehovà ty nitsara.
And all that flee from him with all his hoste, shall fall by the sword, and they that remaine, shalbe scattered towarde all the windes: and ye shall know that I the Lord haue spoken it.
22 Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè; Ho tsongoeko ka ty tora’e an-tiotio’ i talý aboy, naho haoreko; ho harateko boak’ an-tora’e fatratse ty lengo’e maleme, vaho haketsako an-tamboho abo mininginingy ey;
Thus saith the Lord God, I wil also take off the top of this hie cedar, and wil set it, and cut off the top of the tender plant thereof, and I wil plant it vpon an hie mountaine and great.
23 amy vohitse abo’ Israeley ty hamboleako aze le hitiry tsampa’e naho hamoa voa vaho hinjare talý fanjaka; le sindre himoneñ’ ambane’e ao ze karazam-boroñe; naho songa hitsolok’ an-kalo’ o tora’eo ze raha mitiliñe.
Euen in the hie mountaine of Israel will I plant it: and it shall bring forth boughes and beare fruite, and be an excellent cedar, and vnder it shall remaine all birds, and euery foule shall dwell in the shadow of the branches thereof.
24 Le ho rendre’ ze hene hatae am-patrañe ao te Zaho Iehovà ty nampideboñe i hatae nijoalay, naho naonjoko ty hatae bory; nampiforejejèko ty hatae leñe vaho nampiraoraoeko ty hatae maike; Zaho Iehovà ty nitsara naho nanao.
And all the trees of the fielde shall knowe that I the Lord haue brought downe the hie tree, and exalted the lowe tree, that I haue dried vp the greene tree, and made the drie tree to florish: I the Lord haue spoken it, and haue done it.
