Isaiah 55
1 “Hey! Come, everyone who thirsts, to the waters! Come, he who has no money, buy, and eat! Yes, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.
He! ianareo rehetra izay mangetaheta, mankanesa amin’ ny rano! Ary ianareo izay tsy manam-bola, avia, mividia, ka homàna! Eny, avia, mividia divay sy ronono, nefa tsy amim-bola, na amin-karena.
2 Why do you spend money for that which is not bread, and your labor for that which does not satisfy? Listen diligently to me, and eat that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in richness.
Nahoana ianareo no mandany vola amin’ izay tsy hanina, ary ny vokatry ny fisasaranareo amin’ izay tsy mahavoky? Mihainoa dia mihainoa Ahy, ka hano izay tsara, dia aoka hiravoravo amin’ ny matavy ny fanahinareo.
3 Turn your ear, and come to me. Hear, and your soul will live. I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David.
Atongilano ny sofinareo, ka mankanesa atỳ amiko, mihainoa, dia ho velombelona ny fanahinareo; ary hanao fanekena mandrakizay aminareo Aho, dia ny famindram-po mahatoky nampanantenaina an’ i Davida.
4 Behold, I have given him for a witness to the peoples, a leader and commander to the peoples.
Indro, nataoko vavolombelona ho an’ ny firenena Izy, ho mpanapaka sy komandy amin’ ny firenena.
5 Behold, you shall call a nation that you do not know; and a nation that did not know you shall run to you, because of the LORD your God, and for the Holy One of Israel; for he has glorified you.”
Indro, firenena izay tsy fantatrao no hantsoinao, ary firenena izay tsy nahalala Anao no hihazakazaka ho aminao noho ny amin’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao, sy ny Iray Masin’ ny Isiraely, fa nomeny voninahitra Hianao.
6 Seek the LORD while he may be found. Call on him while he is near.
Mitadiava an’ i Jehovah, dieny mbola hita Izy, Miantsoa Azy, dieny mbola akaiky Izy.
7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts. Let him return to the LORD, and he will have mercy on him, to our God, for he will freely pardon.
Aoka ny ratsy fanahy hahafoy ny lalany, ary ny tsy marina hahafoy ny heviny; ary aoka hiverina ho amin’ i Jehovah ireny, fa hamindra fo aminy Izy, Eny, ho amin’ Andriamanitsika, fa hamela heloka dia hamela heloka tokoa Izy.
8 “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, and your ways are not my ways,” says the LORD.
Fa ny fihevitro tsy fihevitrareo ary ny lalanareo kosa tsy mba lalako, hoy Jehovah.
9 “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
Fa tahaka ny hahavon’ ny lanitra noho ny tany no hahavon’ ny lalako noho ny lalanareo sy ny fihevitro noho ny fihevitrareo.
10 For as the rain comes down and the snow from the sky, and does not return there, but waters the earth, and makes it grow and bud, and gives seed to the sower and bread to the eater;
Fa toy ny ranonorana sy ny oram-panala milatsaka avy any an-danitra ka tsy miverina any raha tsy efa nahavonto ny tany ka nampaniry sy nampahavokatra azy, mba hahatonga voa ho an’ ny mpamafy sy hanina ho an’ ny mpihinana,
11 so is my word that goes out of my mouth: it will not return to me void, but it will accomplish that which I please, and it will prosper in the thing I sent it to do.
Dia ho tahaka izany ny teniko izay aloaky ny vavako: Tsy hiverina amiko foana izy, raha tsy efa mahatanteraka izay sitrako ary ambinina amin’ izay ampandehanako azy.
12 For you shall go out with joy, and be led out with peace. The mountains and the hills will break out before you into singing; and all the trees of the fields will clap their hands.
Fa amin’ ny fifaliana no hivoahanareo, ary amin’ ny fiadanana no hitondrana anareo; ny tendrombohitra sy ny havoana hahavelona hoby eo alohanareo, ary ny hazo rehetra any an-tsaha hitehatanana.
13 Instead of the thorn the cypress tree will come up; and instead of the brier the myrtle tree will come up. It will make a name for the LORD, for an everlasting sign that will not be cut off.”
Ny hazo kypreso haniry ho solon’ ny tsilo, ary ny rotra ho solon’ ny sampivato; ary ho anarana ho an’ i Jehovah izany, dia ho famantarana mandrakizay izay tsy hesorina.
