Joel 2
1 Sound the trumpet in Sion, make a proclamation in my holy mountain, and let all the inhabitants of the land be confounded: for the day of the Lord is near;
Popòho e Tsione ao ty antsiva, koiho an-kaboako miavake ey ty hazolava; ee te hihondrahondra iaby ondaty an-tane atoio, fa hitsatoke ty andro’ Iehovà; toe fa an-titotse;
2 for a day of darkness and gloominess is near, a day of cloud and mist: a numerous and strong people shall be spread upon the mountains as the morning; there has not been from the beginning one like it, and after it there shall not be again even to the years of many generations.
Andro maieñe naho mimoromoroñe, andro mandrahoñe naho aman-talinjo mihanake am-bohitsey manahake t’ie manjirik’andro; ondaty mifamorohotse naho fàtratse; mboe lia’e tsy niañ’ohatse; vaho le lia’e tsy ho limbezañe, ampara’ ty taon-tariratse maro añe.
3 Before them is a consuming fire, and behind them is a flame kindled: the land before them is as a paradise of delight, and behind them a desolate plain: and there shall none of them escape.
Mamorototo aolo’e eo ty afo, vaho mivoly ama’e ty soba miforehetse, ie hoe golobo’ i Edene ty aolo’e eo le liolio, mangoakoake ty amboho’e; tsy eo ty mahaborifitse ama’e.
4 Their appearance is as the appearance of horses; and as horsemen, so shall they pursue.
Manahake o soavalao iereo, naho o mpiningi-tsoavalao, zay ty fitsondemboha’ iareo.
5 As the sound of chariots on the tops of mountains shall they leap, and as the sound of a flame of fire devouring stubble, and as a numerous and strong people setting themselves in array for battle.
Manahake ty fitrakotrakon-tsarete mitrantràñe an-dengom-bohitse ey, hoe ty fikosisiha’ ty lel’afo mipilotse ahetse, naho ondaty maozatse miriritse hialy.
6 Before them shall the people be crushed: every face [shall be] as the blackness of a caldron.
Mampalorè ondatio te zoeñe; fonga mikò-foty o laharañeo.
7 As warriors shall they run, and as men of war shall they mount on the walls; and each shall move in his [right] path, and they shall not turn aside from their tracks:
Manahake o fanalolahio ty filaisa’ iareo, anganiha’ iareo o kijolio hoe lahin-defoñe, songa mandrodo amy lala’ey, tsy eo ty mivitsok’ am-pidadaña’e.
8 and not one shall stand aloof from his brother: they shall go on weighed down with their arms, and they fall upon their weapons, yet shall they in no wise be destroyed.
Tsy mifampikititse iereo fa songa mitrokotroko amy lala’ey; aa ndra te mipenkañe ty singa ipaoha’e, ie tsy fere.
9 They shall seize upon the city, and run upon the walls, and go up upon the houses, and enter in through the windows as thieves.
Herereafe’ ty rova, mirimatse an-drindriñe, manganike mb’anjomba ao; mitsoropoke an-dalan-kede hoe malaso.
10 Before them the earth shall be confounded, and the sky shall be shaken: the sun and the moon shall be darkened, and the stars shall withdraw their light.
Manginikinik’ aolo’e eo ty tane, miozoñozoñe o likerañeo; mikò-mainte i àndroy naho i volañey, le asita’ o vasiañeo o fimilemile’eo.
11 And the Lord shall utter his voice before his host: for his camp is very great: for the execution of his words is mighty: for the day of the Lord is great, very glorious, and who shall be able to [resist] it?
Mampipoña-piarañanañañe añatrefa’ o lahindefo’eo t’Iehovà; amy te ra’elahy o lahindefo’eo, fatratse o mañorike o tsara’eoo; toe jabajaba ty andro’ Iehovà vaho mampangebahebake, Ia ty mahafifeak’ ama’e?
12 Now therefore, says the Lord your God, turn to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with lamentation:
Ie amy zao, hoe t’Iehovà, itoliho an-kaliforan’arofo, naho am-pililarañe, am-pirovetañe, vaho am-pangololoihañe.
13 and rend your hearts, and not your garments, and turn to the Lord your God: for he is merciful and compassionate, longsuffering, and plenteous in mercy, and repents of evils.
Mandrovita arofo fa tsy sikiñe, le mitoliha am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo, fa matarike naho miferenaiñe, malaon-kaviñerañe naho ra’elahy an-kafatraram-pikokoañe, vaho teñene’e ty fametsahan-kankàñe.
14 Who knows if he will return, and repent, and leave a blessing behind him, even a meat-offering and a drink-offering to the Lord your God?
Ia ty mahafohiñe, hera hibalike re naho hiheve, vaho hamopoke fañanintsiñe am-boho’e eo, añengao mahakama naho enga-rano am’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo.
15 Sound the trumpet in Sion, sanctify a fast, proclaim a [solemn] service:
Popoho e Tsione ao i antsivay, añamasiño lilitse, koiho ty fivory miavake;
16 gather the people, sanctify the congregation, assemble the elders, gather the infants at the breast: let the bridegroom go forth of his chamber, and the bride out of her closet.
Atontono ondatio; hamasiño ty fivory, arokandrokaño o androanavio, atolaho o ajajao rekets’ o milomolomo am-patroao, ampiakaro an-kivoho’e i mpañengay, boak’ an-kiboho’e ao i enga-vaoy.
17 Between the porch and the altar let the priests that minister to the Lord weep, and say, Spare your people, O Lord, and give not your heritage to reproach, that the heathen should rule over them, lest they should say among the heathen, Where is their God?
Ehe te hiharovetse añivo’ i fizilihañey naho i kitreliy o mpisoroñe mpitoro’ Iehovào, hanao ty hoe: Ferenaiño ondati’oo, ry Iehovà, le ko atolo’o ho arinjeñeñe o lova’oo hamokafoka’ o kilakila’ ndatio; aa vaho akore t’ie hampiboele am’ondatio ty hoe: Aia t’i Andrianañahare’ iareo?
18 But the Lord was jealous of his land, and spared his people.
Nikirañe i tane’ey amy zao t’Iehovà, vaho ferenaiña’e ondati’eo,
19 And the Lord answered and said to his people, Behold, I [will] send you corn, and wine, and oil, and you shall be satisfied with them: and I will no longer make you a reproach among the Gentiles.
Hanoiñe t’Iehovà hanao ty hoe am’ondati’eo: Ingo te hampañitrifeko ampemba vao naho divay vao vaho menake, haha-anjañe anahareo, le tsy hanoeko ho fañinjea’ o kilakila’ ondatio ka.
20 And I will chase away from you the northern [adversary], and will drive him away into a dry land, and I will sink his face in the former sea, and his back parts in the latter sea, and his ill savor shall come up, and his stink come up, because he has wrought great things.
Fa hasitako lavitse anahareo o ‘ntavaratseo, naho haronjeko mb’an-tane harake naho bangìñe añe; hitolike mb’amy riak’ atiñanañey o mpiaolo’eo, naho o am-boli’eo mb’an-driak’ ahandrefañey, le hionjoñe ty imbo’e vaho hiambone ty fitrotrora’e, amy te ra’elahy o nanoe’eo.
21 Be of good courage, O land; rejoice and be glad: for the Lord has done great things.
Ko hemban-drehe ry tane; mifalea naho mandià taroba; amy te fanjàka o fitoloña’ Iehovào.
22 Be of good courage, you beasts of the plain, for the plains of the wilderness have budded, for the trees have borne their fruit, the fig tree and the vine have yielded their strength.
Ko matahotse ry bibin-kivokeo; fa mbe haindoñindoñe o fiandrazañe am-patrambeio, mbe hamoa ty voa’e o hatae’eo, songa hamokatse ty sakoa naho ty vahe.
23 Rejoice then and be glad, you children of Sion, in the Lord your God: for he has given you food fully, and he will rain on you the early and the latter rain, as before.
Mirebeha ry ana’ i Tsioneo, mifalea am’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo, fa havantañañe ty mampahavy i ora-mafaitsey, toe hampahavia’e orañe, i aoloy naho i orañ’asotriy manahake te taolo.
24 And the floors shall be filled with corn, and the presses shall overflow with wine and oil.
Ho lifotse ampemba o rihao, vaho handopatse divay naho menake o sajoao.
25 And I will recompense you for the years which the locust, and the caterpillar, and the palmerworm, and the cankerworm have eaten, [even] my great army, which I sent against you.
Havahako ama’ areo o taoñe nabotse’ o valalao, naho o maramboloo, naho o beañeo vaho o voan-taneo, i mpirai-lian-dahin-defoñe niraheko ama’ areoy.
26 And you shall eat abundantly, and be satisfied, and shall praise the name of the Lord your God [for the things] which he has wrought wonderfully with you: and my people shall not be ashamed for ever.
Ho eneñe mahakama nahareo, toe ho anjañe, naho ho rengè’ areo ty tahina’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo, amy hasoa tsitantane nitoloña’ey; vaho tsy ho salatse ka ondatikoo.
27 And you shall know that I am in the midst of Israel, and [that] I am the Lord your God, and [that] there is none else beside me; and my people shall no more be ashamed for ever.
Le ho fohi’ areo te añivo’ Israele ao raho, le Izaho, Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo ro tsy aman-tovo’e, vaho tsy ho salatse ka ondatikoo.
28 And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your old men shall dream dreams, and your young men shall see visions.
Ie heneke zao, hadoako amy ze atao nofotse ty Troko; le hitoky o ana-dahio naho o anak’ampela’ areoo, naho hañinofy o androanavi’ areoo, vaho hahaoniñe aroñaroñe o ajalahi’ areoo;
29 And on my servants and on [my] handmaids in those days will I pour out of my Spirit.
Le hailiko amo mpitoroñeo, naho amo anak’ ampatañeo ty Troko amy andro rezay.
30 And I will show wonders in heaven, and upon the earth, blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke.
Hampiboahako raha tsitantane an-dindiñe ey, naho an-tane atoy, lio naho afo, vaho hatoeñe mijoala.
31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and glorious day of the Lord come.
Hafotetse ho ieñe i àndroy, naho ho lio i volañey, aolo ty fitotsaha’ i andro’ Iehovà jabajaba naho mampangebahebakey.
32 And it shall come to pass [that] whoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved: for in mount Sion and in Jerusalem shall the saved one be as the Lord has said, and they that have glad tidings preached to them, whom the Lord has called.
Ie amy zay, ho rombaheñe ze mikanjy ty tahina’ Iehovà; fa hipolititse an-kaboa’ i Tsione ao naho e Ierosalaime ao ty ila’e amy nafè’ Iehovày, vaho ho kanjie’ Iehovà o sehanga’eo.
