Isaia 30
1 Lozan’ ny zaza maditra, izay maka saina, nefa tsy avy amiko, hoy Jehovah, ary manao fanekena, nefa tsy avy amin’ ny Fanahiko, mba hanampy ota amin’ ny ota,
Woe to the rebellious children, says the LORD, that take counsel, but not of me; and that cover with a covering, but not of my spirit, that they may add sin to sin:
2 Dia izay mandeha hidina any Egypta, nefa tsy nanadina tamin’ ny vavako, handositra ho any amin’ ny fiarovana mafin’ i Farao sy hialokaloka ao amin’ ny alokalok’ i Egypta.
That walk to go down into Egypt, and have not asked at my mouth; to strengthen themselves in the strength of Pharaoh, and to trust in the shadow of Egypt!
3 Kanjo ho tonga henatra ho azy ny fiarovana mafin’ i Farao, ary ho fanalam-baraka azy ny fialokalofany ao amin’ ny alokalok’ i Egypta.
Therefore shall the strength of Pharaoh be your shame, and the trust in the shadow of Egypt your confusion.
4 Fa tonga any Zoana ireo lehibeny, ary tonga any Hanesa ny irany.
For his princes were at Zoan, and his ambassadors came to Hanes.
5 Izy rehetra dia samy hahazo henatra noho ny amin’ ny firenena tsy mahasoa azy, dia izay tsy mahavonjy na mahasoa, fa tonga henatra sy latsa kosa.
They were all ashamed of a people that could not profit them, nor be an help nor profit, but a shame, and also a reproach.
6 Faminaniana ny amin’ ny behemota any amin’ ny tany atsimo. Any amin’ ny tany mampahory sy mahaporiporitra, izay ihavian’ ny liom-bavy sy ny lion-dahy ary ny menarana sy ny menaran’ afo manidina, no nitondrany ny hareny teny an-damosin’ ny boriky tanora ary ny fananany teo amin’ ny trafon’ ny rameva ho any amin’ ny firenena tsy mahasoa azy.
The burden of the beasts of the south: into the land of trouble and anguish, from where come the young and old lion, the viper and fiery flying serpent, they will carry their riches on the shoulders of young asses, and their treasures on the bunches of camels, to a people that shall not profit them.
7 Nefa zava-poana sy tsinontsinona ny famonjen’ ny Egyptiana; Koa izany no nanaovako azy hoe: Ilay be rehaka tsy mety manao na inona na inona!
For the Egyptians shall help in vain, and to no purpose: therefore have I cried concerning this, Their strength is to sit still.
8 Mandehana ankehitriny soraty amin’ ny fàfana eo anatrehany izany, ary soraty amin’ ny taratasy mba haharitra amin’ ny andro any aoriana mandrakizay doria izany.
Now go, write it before them in a table, and note it in a book, that it may be for the time to come for ever and ever:
9 Fa firenena maditra izy, zaza mandainga, dia zaza izay tsy mety mihaino ny lalàn’ i Jehovah,
That this is a rebellious people, lying children, children that will not hear the law of the LORD:
10 Izay manao amin’ ny mpahita hoe: Aza mahita, ary amin’ ny mpaminany: Aza maminany zavatra marina aminay: Manaova vava malefaka aminay, maminania fitaka,
Which say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not to us right things, speak to us smooth things, prophesy deceits:
11 Mialà amin’ ny lalana, mivilia amin’ ny aleha; Atsaharo ny Iray Masin’ ny Isiraely tsy ho eo anoloanay intsony.
Get you out of the way, turn aside out of the path, cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us.
12 Koa izao no lazain’ ny Iray Masin’ ny Isiraely: Satria mandà izany teny izany ianareo ary matoky ny fanaovana an-keriny sy ny fiolakolahana ka miankina amin’ izany,
Why thus says the Holy One of Israel, Because you despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and stay thereon:
13 Dia ho aminareo ity heloka ity, tahaka izay mivava efa mila hianjera sy izay mibohitra amin’ ny manda avo, ka ho tampoka dia tampoka no haharavany.
Therefore this iniquity shall be to you as a breach ready to fall, swelling out in a high wall, whose breaking comes suddenly at an instant.
14 Ary hovakivakina izy tahaka ny fahavakivakin’ ny vilanin’ ny mpanefy tanimanga, raha montsamontsaniny ka tsy itondrany roa; Koa rehefa montsamontsana izy, dia tsy hisy vakiny ho azo atao fangalana afo ao am-patana, na ho azo atao fangalan-drano ao an-davaka famorian-drano aza.
And he shall break it as the breaking of the potters’ vessel that is broken in pieces; he shall not spare: so that there shall not be found in the bursting of it a shard to take fire from the hearth, or to take water with out of the pit.
15 Fa izao no lazain’ ny Tompo, dia Jehovah, ny Iray Masin’ ny Isiraely: Amin’ ny fiverenana sy ny fitsaharana no hamonjena anareo, amin’ ny fanginana sy ny fahatokiana no hisian’ ny herinareo; Nefa tsy nety ianareo;
For thus says the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel; In returning and rest shall you be saved; in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength: and you would not.
16 Fa hoy kosa ianareo: Tsia, fa handositra mitaingin-tsoavaly izahay; Koa noho izany dia handositra tokoa ianareo; Ary hoy ianareo: Hitaingina ny faingan-tongotra izahay; Ka dia ho faingan-tongotra koa ny manenjika anareo.
But you said, No; for we will flee on horses; therefore shall you flee: and, We will ride on the swift; therefore shall they that pursue you be swift.
17 Ny arivo handositra, raha rahonan’ ny anankiray, eny, handositra ianareo, raha rahonan’ ny dimy, Mandra-pahatongan’ ny sisa aminareo ho tahaka ny to-kazo avo any an-tampon’ ny tendrombohitra sy tahaka ny faneva any amin’ ny havoana.
One thousand shall flee at the rebuke of one; at the rebuke of five shall you flee: till you be left as a beacon on the top of a mountain, and as an ensign on an hill.
18 Koa Jehovah dia mbola hiandry mandra-pamindrany fo aminareo, ary mbola hitoetra any amin’ ny avo Izy mandra-piantrany anareo, fa Andriamanitry ny fahamarinana Jehovah; Sambatra izay rehetra miandry Azy.
And therefore will the LORD wait, that he may be gracious to you, and therefore will he be exalted, that he may have mercy on you: for the LORD is a God of judgment: blessed are all they that wait for him.
19 Fa ianao, ry firenena mitoetra ao Ziona any Jerosalema, dia tsy hitomany intsony; Fa hamindra fo aminao tokoa Izy, raha reny ny fitarainanao; Eny, raha vao reny izany, dia hamaly anao Izy.
For the people shall dwell in Zion at Jerusalem: you shall weep no more: he will be very gracious to you at the voice of your cry; when he shall hear it, he will answer you.
20 Ary homen’ ny Tompo mofo fahoriana sy ny rano fahalahelovana ianao; Ary tsy hiery intsony ny mpampianatra anao; Ny masonao hahita ny mpampianatra anao;
And though the Lord give you the bread of adversity, and the water of affliction, yet shall not your teachers be removed into a corner any more, but your eyes shall see your teachers:
21 Fa na mivily ho amin’ ny ankavanana ianao, na mivily ho amin’ ny ankavia, ny sofinao dia handre teny ao ivohonao manao hoe: Ity no lalana, ka andehano.
And your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, This is the way, walk you in it, when you turn to the right hand, and when you turn to the left.
22 Ary holotoinao ny takela-bolafotsy voapetaka amin’ ny sampinao voasokitra sy ny takela-bolamena voapetaka amin’ ny sampinao an-idina, ka harianao tahaka ny lamba maloto izany; Mialà amiko! no teny hataonao aminy.
You shall defile also the covering of your graven images of silver, and the ornament of your molten images of gold: you shall cast them away as a menstruous cloth; you shall say to it, Get you hence.
23 Ary dia hanome ranonorana ho an’ ny voa nafafinao any an-tsaha Izy, sy mofo vokatry ny tany sady tsara no vokatra; Ary amin’ izany andro izany ny ombinao dia hihinana eny amin’ ny tany malalaka;
Then shall he give the rain of your seed, that you shall sow the ground with; and bread of the increase of the earth, and it shall be fat and plenteous: in that day shall your cattle feed in large pastures.
24 Ny omby sy ny boriky tanora, izay miasa ny tany, dia hihinana vilona voaisy sira, izay voatsikerakera amin’ ny sahiratsy sy ny fikororohana.
The oxen likewise and the young asses that ear the ground shall eat clean provender, which has been winnowed with the shovel and with the fan.
25 Ary any amin’ ny tendrombohitra avo rehetra sy ny havoana andrandraina rehetra dia hisy ony sy ranovelona amin’ ny andro lehibe famonoana, dia amin’ ny andro hianjeran’ ny tilikambo.
And there shall be on every high mountain, and on every high hill, rivers and streams of waters in the day of the great slaughter, when the towers fall.
26 Ary ny fahazavan’ ny volana dia ho tahaka ny fahazavan’ ny masoandro, ary ny fahazavan’ ny masoandro dia ho avy fito heny, ka ho tahaka ny fahazavan’ ny hafitoana, Amin’ ny andro hamehezan’ i Jehovah ny fahatorotoroan’ ny olony sy hanasitranany ny fery tamin’ ny namelezana azy.
Moreover the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days, in the day that the LORD binds up the breach of his people, and heals the stroke of their wound.
27 Indro, avy any lavitra any ny anaran’ i Jehovah, mirehitra amin’ ny fahatezerany Izy Sady midonaka amin’ ny setroka be; Ny molony dia feno fahatezerana, ary ny lelany dia tahaka ny afo mandevona;
Behold, the name of the LORD comes from far, burning with his anger, and the burden thereof is heavy: his lips are full of indignation, and his tongue as a devouring fire:
28 Ary ny fofonainy tahaka ny riaka manafotra havozona, hanasivana ny firenena amin’ ny sivana fandevonana, ary hisy lamboridy mampivily eo amin’ ny valanoranon’ ny olona.
And his breath, as an overflowing stream, shall reach to the middle of the neck, to sift the nations with the sieve of vanity: and there shall be a bridle in the jaws of the people, causing them to err.
29 Ary ny hira hataonao dia ho tahaka ny amin’ ny alina fitandremana ny andro firavoravoana, ary ny hafalian’ ny fo dia ho tahaka ny olona mandeha omban’ ny feon-tsodina ho any an-tendrombohitr’ i Jehovah, dia any amin’ ny Vatolampin’ ny Isiraely;
You shall have a song, as in the night when a holy solemnity is kept; and gladness of heart, as when one goes with a pipe to come into the mountain of the LORD, to the mighty One of Israel.
30 Ary Jehovah hanandratra ny feon’ ny fiandrianany sy hampiseho ny fiantefan’ ny sandriny amin’ ny firehetan’ ny fahatezerana sy ny lelafo mandevona sy ny ranonoram-baratra sy ny orana mifafy ary ny havandra vaventy.
And the LORD shall cause his glorious voice to be heard, and shall show the lighting down of his arm, with the indignation of his anger, and with the flame of a devouring fire, with scattering, and tempest, and hailstones.
31 Fa ny feon’ i Jehovah dia haharaiki-tahotra ny Asyriana; Hasiany amin’ ny tsorakazo ireo.
For through the voice of the LORD shall the Assyrian be beaten down, which smote with a rod.
32 Ary na aiza na aiza no amelezan’ ny tsorakazo voatendry, izay amelin’ i Jehovah azy, dia harahina ampongatapaka sy lokanga izany; Ary amin’ ny ady hamelezany mafy no hiadiany aminy.
And in every place where the grounded staff shall pass, which the LORD shall lay on him, it shall be with tabrets and harps: and in battles of shaking will he fight with it.
33 Fa efa voavoatra fahataloha Tofeta; Eny, efa nataony vonona ho an’ ny mpanjaka izany; Efa nataony lalina sady malalaka izy; Ny antontany dia misy afo sy kitay betsaka; Ary ny fofonain’ i Jehovah, izay tahaka ny renirano solifara, no mampirehitra azy.
For Tophet is ordained of old; yes, for the king it is prepared; he has made it deep and large: the pile thereof is fire and much wood; the breath of the LORD, like a stream of brimstone, does kindle it.
