Isaiah 61
1 The Spirit of the lord Jehovah is upon me, because Jehovah has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to heal the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, and the opening of bonds to those who are bound,
Ny Fanahin’ i Jehovah Tompo no ato amiko, satria Jehovah efa nanosotra Ahy hitory teny soa mahafaly amin’ ny mpandefitra, efa naniraka Ahy hahasitrana ny torotoro fo Izy, ary hitory fanafahana amin’ ny babo sy hamoaka ny ao an-trano-maizina ho amin’ ny mazava,
2 to proclaim the acceptable year of Jehovah, and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn,
Hitory taona ankasitrahan’ i Jehovah sy andro famalian’ Andriamanitsika, hampionona ny malahelo rehetra,
3 to appoint to those who mourn in Zion, to give to them a garland for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness, that they may be called trees of righteousness, the planting of Jehovah, that he may be glorified.
Hanolotra ho an’ ny malahelo ao Ziona, eny, hanome azy namama ho solon’ ny lavenona, sy diloilo fifaliana ho solon’ ny fahalahelovana, ary fitafiana fiderana ho solon’ ny fanahy reradreraka, mba hanaovana azy hoe Hazon’ ny fahamarinana, nambolen’ i Jehovah ho fampisehoam-boninahitra.
4 And they shall build the old wastes. They shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the waste cities, the desolations of many generations.
Koa hatsangana ny efa rava hatry ny fony fahagola, ary hamboarina ny efa lao hatramin’ ny fahiny, dia hohavaozina indray ny tanàna rava, Izay efa lao hatramin’ ny taranaka lasa ela.
5 And strangers shall stand and feed your flocks, and foreigners shall be your plowmen and your vinedressers.
Ary ny vahiny honina ao ka hiandry ny ondry aman’ osinareo, ary ny hafa firenena ho mpiasa tany sy ho mpamboatra tanim-boaloboka ho anareo,
6 But ye shall be named the priests of Jehovah. Men shall call you the ministers of our God. Ye shall eat the wealth of the nations, and in their glory ye shall boast yourselves.
Fa ianareo kosa no hatao hoe mpisoron’ i Jehovah, Mpanao fanompoam-pivavahana ho an’ Andriamanitsika no hilazana anareo ho lasanareo ny haren’ ny firenena, ary handimby voninahitra azy ianareo.
7 Instead of your shame ye shall have double, and instead of dishonor they shall rejoice in their portion. Therefore in their land they shall possess double. Everlasting joy shall be to them.
Ny henatrareo hosoloana avy roa heny, ary ny tondromaso hosoloana hoby amin’ ny anjara-lovany; ary noho izany dia hahazo indroa heny ao amin’ ny taniny izy, fifaliana mandrakizay no ho azy.
8 For I, Jehovah, love justice. I hate robbery with iniquity. And I will give them their recompense in truth. And I will make an everlasting covenant with them.
Fa Izaho Jehovah dia tia rariny; halako ny fandrombahana amin’ ny faharatsiana; homeko ny valin’ asany amin’ ny fahamarinana izy, ary fanekena mandrakizay no hataoko aminy.
9 And their seed shall be known among the nations, and their offspring among the peoples. All who see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the seed which Jehovah has blessed.
Ny taranany ho fantatra any amin’ ny jentilisa ary ny terany any amin’ ny firenena; Izay rehetra mahita azy dia hahafantatra azy ho taranaka notahin’ i Jehovah.
10 I will greatly rejoice in Jehovah. My soul shall be joyful in my God, for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation. He has covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decks himself with a garland, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
Hifaly dia hifaly amin’ i Jehovah aho, ny fanahiko ho ravoravo amin’ Andriamanitro; fa notafiany fitafiana famonjena aho, ary nakanjoiny akanjo fahamarinana, toy ny mpampakatra misatroka hamama tahaka ny mpisorona, ary toy ny ampakarina miravaka ny firàvany.
11 For as the earth brings forth its bud, and as the garden causes the things that are sown in it to spring forth, so the lord Jehovah will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations.
Fa tahaka ny tany mampitsimoka izay ao aminy, ary tahaka ny tanimboly mampaniry izay nafafy tao aminy, dia toy izany no hampisehoan’ i Jehovah Tompo fahamarinana sy fiderana eo anatrehan’ ny firenena rehetra.
