Ezekiela 31
1 Ary tamin’ ny andro voalohany tamin’ ny volana fahatelo tamin’ ny taona fahiraika ambin’ ny folo dia tonga tamiko ny tenin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:
And in the eleuenth yeere, in the third moneth, and in the first day of the moneth the worde of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
2 Ry zanak’ olona, ataovy amin’ i Farao, mpanjakan’ i Egypta, sy amin’ ny vahoakany maro be hoe: Tahaka an’ iza moa ianao amin’ ny fahalehibiazanao?
Sonne of man, speake vnto Pharaoh King of Egypt, and to his multitude, Whom art thou like in thy greatnesse?
3 Indro, Asyria dia sedera tsara rantsana any Libanona ary misandrahaka manalokaloka sady mijoroaka avo, ka mitehika amin’ ny rahona matevina ny tendrony.
Beholde, Asshur was like a cedar in Lebanon with faire branches, and with thicke shadowing boughes, and shot vp very hye, and his toppe was among the thicke boughes.
4 Ny rano no nahalehibe azy, eny, ny rano lalina no nampijoroaka azy, ary ny ranovelona no nandeha manodidina ny tany nambolena azy ka nampandeha ny lakan-dranony hankamin’ ny hazo rehetra any an-tsaha.
The waters nourished him, and the deepe exalted him on hie with her riuers running round about his plants, and sent out her litle riuers vnto all the trees of the fielde.
5 Koa dia nijoroaka ho avo noho ny hazo rehetra any an-tsaha izy, ary nihamaro ny sampany sady nihalava ny rantsany noho ny habetsahan’ ny rano tamin’ ny fisandrahany.
Therefore his height was exalted aboue all the trees of the fielde, and his boughes were multiplied, and his branches were long, because of the multitude of the waters, which the deepe sent out.
6 Teo amin’ ny sampany no nanaovan’ ny voro-manidina rehetra akany; Ary teo ambanin’ ny rantsany no niterahan’ ny bibi-dia rehetra; Sady teo amin’ ny alokalony no nitoeran’ ny firenena malaza rehetra.
All the foules of the heauen made their nestes in his boughes, and vnder his branches did all the beastes of the fielde bring foorth their yong, and vnder his shadowe dwelt all mightie nations.
7 Ka dia tsara tarehy tamin’ ny fahalehibiazany sy ny halavan’ ny sampany izy; Fa tany amin’ ny rano maro ny fakany.
Thus was he faire in his greatnesse, and in the length of his branches: for his roote was neere great waters.
8 Tsy nahatakona azy ny sedera tao amin’ ny sahan’ Andriamanitra; Tsy mba nahatoraka ny sampany ny hazo kypreso, tsy mba nanana rantsana tahaka azy ny hazo platana; Ary tsy nisy tsara tarehy tahaka azy ny hazo rehetra tany amin’ ny sahan’ Andriamanitra.
The cedars in the garden of God coulde not hide him: no firre tree was like his branches, and the chessenut trees were not like his boughes: all the trees in the garden of God were not like vnto him in his beautie.
9 Nohatsaraiko tamin’ ny haben’ ny rantsany ny tarehiny; Ka dia nialona azy ny hazo rehetra tany Edena, dia ireo tany amin’ ny sahan’ Andriamanitra.
I made him faire by the multitude of his branches: so that all the trees of Eden, that were in the garden of God, enuied him.
10 Koa izany no nanaovan’ i Jehovah Tompo hoe: Satria nijoroaka avo izy ka nanandratra ny lohany teo amin’ ny rahona matevina, ary nirehareha ny fony noho ny hahavony,
Therefore thus sayeth the Lord God, Because he is lift vp on high, and hath shot vp his toppe among the thicke boughes, and his heart is lift vp in his height,
11 Dia hatolotro eo an-tànan’ ilay mahery amin’ ny firenena izy; Hamely azy tokoa io; Noho ny faharatsiany no nandroahako azy.
I haue therefore deliuered him into the handes of the mightiest among the heathen: he shall handle him, for I haue cast him away for his wickednesse.
12 Ary izay fahavalo masiaka indrindra amin’ ny firenena no nanapaka azy sady nanary azy; Teny an-tendrombohitra sy teny amin’ ny lohasaha rehetra no nihahafan’ ny sampany, ary notapatapahina teny amoron’ ny ony rehetra amin’ ny tany ny rantsany; Ary nidina niala tamin’ ny alokalony ny firenena rehetra ka nahafoy avy.
And the strangers haue destroyed him, euen the terrible nations, and they haue left him vpon the mountaines, and in all the valleis his branches are fallen, and his boughes are broken by all the riuers of the land: and all the people of the earth are departed from his shadowe, and haue forsaken him.
13 Mipetraka eo amin’ ny vatany nianjera ny voro-manidina rehetra, ary eny amin’ ny sampany ny bibi-dia rehetra,
Vpon his ruine shall all the foules of the heauen remaine, and all the beastes of the fielde shall be vpon his branches,
14 Mba tsy hisy hiavonavona intsony noho ny hahavony ny hazo rehetra eny amoron’ ny rano, na hanandratra ny lohany ho eo amin’ ny rahona matevina, sady tsy hisy hitoky amin’ ny hahavony intsony ny hazo mifo-drano rehetra; Fa voatolotra ho faty izy rehetra ho any ambanin’ ny tany, ho ao amin’ ny zanak’ olombelona, dia any amin’ izay midìna any an-davaka.
So that none of all the trees by the waters shalbe exalted by their height, neither shall shoote vp their toppe among the thicke boughes, neither shall their leaues stand vp in their height, which drinke so much water: for they are all deliuered vnto death in the nether partes of the earth in the middes of the children of men among them that goe downe to the pit.
15 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Tamin’ ny andro nidinany ho any amin’ ny fiainan-tsi-hita dia nampanao fisaonana Aho: Nanarona ny rano lalina noho ny aminy Aho sady nanampina ny ony avy aminy, ka dia najanona ny rano maro; Nampisaoniko Libanona noho ny aminy, ka nalazo noho izany ny hazo rehetra tany an-tsaha. (Sheol h7585)
Thus saith the Lord God, In the day when he went downe to hell, I caused them to mourne, and I couered the deepe for him, and I did restreine the floods thereof, and the great waters were stayed: I caused Lebanon to mourne for him, and all the trees of the fielde fainted. (Sheol h7585)
16 Tamin’ ny fiezinezin’ ny fianjerany dia nampihorohoroiko ny firenena, raha nampidiniko ho any amin’ ny fiainan-tsi-hita izy, ho naman’ izay midìna any an-davaka; Ary ny hazo rehetra any Edena, dia ny nojobonina sady soa indrindra any Libanona, dia izay mifo-drano rehetra, samy nampionona ny tenany any ambanin’ ny tany, (Sheol h7585)
I made the nations to shake at the sound of his fall, when I cast him downe to hell with them that descend into the pit, and all the excellent trees of Eden, and the best of Lebanon: euen all that are nourished with waters, shall be comforted in the nether partes of the earth. (Sheol h7585)
17 Ireo koa dia niara-nidina taminy ho any amin’ ny fiainan-tsi-hita, ho any amin’ izay voatrabaky ny sabatra, mbamin’ ireo izay efa sandriny teo, ka nipetraka teo ambanin’ ny alokalony teo amin’ ny firenena. (Sheol h7585)
They also went downe to hell with him vnto them that be slaine with the sworde, and his arme, and they that dwelt vnder his shadowe in the middes of the heathen. (Sheol h7585)
18 Tahaka an’ iza amin’ ny hazo any Edena moa ianao amin’ izao voninahitra sy fahalehibiazana izao? Hampidinina ho any ambanin’ ny tany miaraka amin’ ny hazo any Edena ianao; Eo amin’ ny tsy voafora no hiamparanao, dia eo amin’ izay voa-trabaky ny sabatra. Farao sy ny vahoakany maro be rehetra izany, hoy Jehovah Tompo.
To whom art thou thus like in glorie and in greatnesse among the trees of Eden? yet thou shalt be cast downe with the trees of Eden vnto the nether partes of the earth: thou shalt sleepe in the middes of the vncircumcised, with them that be slaine by the sworde: this is Pharaoh and all his multitude, sayth the Lord God.
