Isaiah 56
1 Thus says the Lord: Preserve judgment, and accomplish justice. For my salvation is close to its arrival, and my justice is close to being revealed.
Hoe t’Iehovà: Mifahara ami’ty hatò, naho ano ty havantañañe; toe mitotoke mb’eo ty fandrombahako, vaho ho bentareñe ty havañonako.
2 Blessed is the man who does this, and the son of man who holds to this, keeping the Sabbath and not profaning it, guarding his hands and not doing any evil.
Haha t’indaty manao zao naho ty ana’ondaty mivontititse ama’e; te ambena’e i Sabotsey tsy hañotà’e faly, vaho tana’e ty fità’e tsy hanoe’e raty.
3 And let not the son of the new arrival, who adheres to the Lord, speak, saying, “The Lord will divide and separate me from his people.” And let not the eunuch say, “Behold, I am a dry tree.”
Tsy apo’e hanao ty hoe, i renetane mpirekets’ am’ Iehovày: Toe havi’ Iehovà am’ondati’eo raho; vaho tsy hado’e hanao ty hoe ty vositse: Inao! Hatae maike raho.
4 For thus says the Lord to the eunuchs: They will keep my Sabbaths, and they will choose the things that I will, and they will hold to my covenant.
Fa hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà: O vositse mpitañ’ o Sabatakoo, naho mijoboñe o mahafale ahikoo, vaho mifahatse amy fañinakoy:
5 I will give them a place in my house, within my walls, and a name better than sons and daughters. I will give them an everlasting name, which will never perish.
Ho tolorako lily naho tahinañe an-trañoko ao naho am-po’ o rindrikoo ambone’ ze atao anadahy naho anak’ ampela: hitolorako tahinañe tsy ho modo, tsy haitoañe nainai’e
6 And the sons of the new arrival, who adhere to the Lord so as to worship him and to love his name, shall be his servants: all who keep the Sabbath without profaning it, and who hold to my covenant.
Le o renetane mpirekets’ am’ Iehovà hiatrak’ Aze, hikoko ty tahina’ Iehovà ho mpitoro’eo, ze mañambeñe i Sabotsey tsy haniva aze, vaho mifahatse amy fañinakoy:
7 I will lead them to my holy mountain, and I will gladden them in my house of prayer. Their holocausts and their victims will be pleasing to me upon my altar. For my house will be called the house of prayer for all peoples.
Ie ro hendeseko mb’amy vohiko miavakey mb’eo, vaho hampifalèko an-kivohom- pitalahoako ao; ho rambeseñe amy kitrelikoy ty enga’ holora’ iareo naho o fisoroña’ iareoo; amy te hatao: Anjombam-pitalahoa’ ze kila ondaty ty kivohoko.
8 The Lord God, who gathers the dispersed of Israel, says: Even now, I will gather his congregation to him.
Hoe t’i Talè, Iehovà, Mpanontone o naitoañe amo ana’ Israeleo, Mbe eo ty havoriko ho ama’e amo fa natontoko.
9 All beasts of the field, all the beasts of the forest: approach and devour!
O ry biby an-kivok’ ao, mb’etoa hampibotseke, eka ry hene biby añ’ala ao.
10 His watchmen are all blind. They are all ignorant. They are mute dogs without the ability to bark, seeing empty things, sleeping and loving dreams.
Goa o mpijilo’eo, Songa tsy aman-kilala; Sindre amboa bobo tsy maha-hiake; mañinofy t’ie mibabòfoke, mpitea-roro.
11 And these very imprudent dogs have never known satisfaction. The shepherds themselves do not know understanding. All have turned aside in their own way, each one to his own avarice, from the highest even to the least:
Eka matity o amboao, tsy apota’iareo ty atao etsake, toe mpiarak’añondry tsy mahafohiñe, o retiañe; songa mitsile mb’an-dala’e mb’eo sindre mampitombo ty aze avao pak’ an-tsitso’e.
12 “Come, let us take wine, and be filled by inebriation. And as it is today, so shall it be tomorrow and for a long time.”
Antao, hoe iereo, Hangalake divay, hampiboboke ty tron-tika an-toake; le hanahake ty andro toy avao ty hamaray, fe ampitoaboreñe.
