Isaiah 5
1 I will sing for my beloved a song of his vineyard: My beloved had a vineyard on a very fertile hill.
Aoka aho hihira ny amin’ ny Malalako, dia hiran’ ny Malalako ny amin’ ny tanim-boalobony. Ny Malalako nanana tanim-boaloboka tao an-kavoana lonaka;
2 He dug it up and cleared the stones and planted the finest vines. He built a watchtower in the middle and dug out a winepress as well. He waited for the vineyard to yield good grapes, but the fruit it produced was sour!
Dia nasainy io, ka nesoriny ny vato, Ary novoleny karazam-boaloboka tsara, Sady nanao tilikambo teo afovoany Izy Ary nandavaka famiazam-boaloboka teo; Dia nanantena azy hamoa voaloboka tsara Izy, Kanjo namoa voalobo-dratsy.
3 “And now, O dwellers of Jerusalem and men of Judah, I exhort you to judge between Me and My vineyard.
Koa noho izany, ry mponina any Jerosalema sy ry lehilahy amin’ ny Joda, Masìna ianareo, tsarao Aho sy ny tanim-boaloboko.
4 What more could I have done for My vineyard than I already did for it? Why, when I expected sweet grapes, did it bring forth sour fruit?
Inona moa no mbola azo natao tamin’ ny tanim-boaloboko, Ka tsy efa nataoko taminy? Koa raha nanantena azy hamoa voaloboka tsara Aho, Nahoana no namoa voalobo-dratsy izy?
5 Now I will tell you what I am about to do to My vineyard: I will take away its hedge, and it will be consumed; I will tear down its wall, and it will be trampled.
Koa noho izany dia aoka hambarako anareo izay hataoko amin’ ny tanim-boaloboko: Hesoriko ny fefy tsilony, ka dia holevonina izy; Ary harodako ny fefy vatony, ka dia ho voahitsakitsaka izy;
6 I will make it a wasteland, neither pruned nor cultivated, and thorns and briers will grow up. I will command the clouds that rain shall not fall on it.”
Ary hataoko simba dia simba izy; Tsy hohetezana ny sakeli-boalobony, ary tsy hohevoina izy, Fa ho rakotry ny hery sy ny tsilo; Ary hodidiako ny rahona tsy hampilatsaka ranonorana aminy.
7 For the vineyard of the LORD of Hosts is the house of Israel, and the men of Judah are the plant of His delight. He looked for justice, but saw bloodshed; for righteousness, but heard a cry of distress.
Fa ny taranak’ i Isiraely no tanim-boalobok’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Ary ny lehilahy amin’ ny Joda no voly tiany; Dia nanantena fitsarana marina Izy, kanjo fandatsahan-drà; Niandry fahamarinana Izy, kanjo, indro, fitarainana.
8 Woe to you who add house to house and join field to field until no place is left and you live alone in the land.
Lozanareo izay mangorona trano lalandava Sady mampiharo vala ny saha amin’ ny saha, Ambara-paha-tsy hisy hitoeran’ ny sasany intsony, Mba ho tonga mponina manirery eo amin’ ny tany ianareo!
9 I heard the LORD of Hosts declare: “Surely many houses will become desolate, great mansions left unoccupied.
Izao no ren’ ny sofiko avy amin’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro: Marina tokoa fa ho foana ny trano maro, Eny, na dia izay lehibe sady tsara aza dia tsy hisy mpitoetra.
10 For ten acres of vineyard will yield but a bath of wine, and a homer of seed only an ephah of grain.”
Ary bata iray monja no ho vokatry ny tanim-boaloboka folo Zemeda, Ary rehefa iray monja no ho vokatry ny voan-javatra eran’ ny homera.
11 Woe to those who rise early in the morning in pursuit of strong drink, who linger into the evening, to be inflamed by wine.
Lozan’ izay mifoha maraina koa ka mitady toaka! Izay miboboka mandra-paharivan’ ny andro ka ampirehetin’ ny divay!
12 At their feasts are the lyre and harp, tambourines and flutes and wine. They disregard the actions of the LORD and fail to see the work of His hands.
Ary ny lokanga sy ny valiha, ny ampongatapaka sy ny sodina ary ny divay no foto-panasany; Fa ny asan’ i Jehovah tsy mba jereny, Ary ny ataon’ ny tanany tsy mba hitany.
13 Therefore My people will go into exile for their lack of understanding; their dignitaries are starving and their masses are parched with thirst.
Ary noho izany dia ho lasan-ko babo ny oloko noho ny tsi-fahalalany, Ary ny olona ambony ho mosarena, Ary ny valalabemandry ho main’ ny hetaheta.
14 Therefore Sheol enlarges its throat and opens wide its enormous jaws, and down go Zion’s nobles and masses, her revelers and carousers! (Sheol h7585)
Koa izany no mampitanatana vava ny fiainan-tsi-hita Hanao teli-moka an’ i Jerosalema; Ary any no hivarinan’ ny voninahiny sy ny fihahohahony ary ny tabatabany mbamin’ izay mifalifaly ao aminy; (Sheol h7585)
15 So mankind will be brought low, and each man humbled; the arrogant will lower their eyes.
Ary ny zanak’ olombelona dia hatao mitanondrika, Ary ny olona haetry, Ary ny mason’ ny miandranandrana dia haidina.
16 But the LORD of Hosts will be exalted by His justice, and the holy God will show Himself holy in righteousness.
Fa Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, no hisandratra amin’ ny fitsarana, Ary Andriamanitra masìna dia hiseho ho masìna amin’ ny fahamarinana.
17 Lambs will graze as in their own pastures, and strangers will feed in the ruins of the wealthy.
Ary ny zanak’ ondry hikania toy ny eny amin’ ny tany fiandrasana azy ihany; Ary ny tany foana izay nipetrahan’ ny matavy, dia mpirenireny no hiandry ondry ao.
18 Woe to those who draw iniquity with cords of deceit and pull sin along with cart ropes,
Lozan’ izay mitari-keloka amin’ ny kofehin’ ny faharatsiana Ary mitarika ota toy ny amin’ ny mahazakan-tsariety,
19 to those who say, “Let Him hurry and hasten His work so that we may see it! Let the plan of the Holy One of Israel come so that we may know it!”
Dia izay manao hoe: Aoka hohafainganiny sy hododonany ny asany, mba ho hitantsika, Ary aoka izay kasain’ ny Iray Masin’ ny Isiraely ho mby akaiky ka ho tanteraka, mba ho fantatsika!
20 Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who turn darkness to light and light to darkness, who replace bitter with sweet and sweet with bitter.
Lozan’ izay milaza ny ratsy ho tsara ary na tsara ho ratsy! Izay manao ny maizina ho mavaza ary ny mazava ho maizina! Izay manao ny mangidy ho mamy ary ny mamy ho mangidy!
21 Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes and clever in their own sight.
Lozan’ izay manao azy ho hendry sy manao azy ho mazava saina!
22 Woe to those who are heroes in drinking wine and champions in mixing beer,
Lozan’ izay fatratra nefa amin’ ny fisotroan-divay ihany, sy izay kanto nefa amin’ ny fampiharoharoana toaka ihany!
23 who acquit the guilty for a bribe and deprive the innocent of justice.
Ary izay manamarina ny meloka noho ny kolikoly sy manala ny rariny amin’ ny marina!
24 Therefore, as a tongue of fire consumes the straw, and as dry grass shrivels in the flame, so their roots will decay and their blossoms will blow away like dust; for they have rejected the instruction of the LORD of Hosts and despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.
Koa toy ny fandevonan’ ny lelafo ny mololo, ary toy ny fifitsaky ny bozaka midedadeda, dia toy izany no hahalovan’ ny fakany sy hijofoan’ ny voniny hanjary vovoka, satria efa nandà ny lalàn’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro izy Sy nanamavo ny tenin’ ny Iray Masin’ ny Isiraely.
25 Therefore the anger of the LORD burns against His people; His hand is raised against them to strike them down. The mountains quake, and the corpses lay like refuse in the streets. Despite all this, His anger is not turned away; His hand is still upraised.
Koa izany no irehetan’ ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah amin’ ny olony sy aninjirany ny tànany aminy ka amelezany azy; Dia mihorohoro ny tendrombohitra, ary ny fatin’ ny olona dia tonga tahaka ny diky eny an-dalambe. Kanefa, na dia izany rehetra izany aza, dia tsy mbola afaka ihany ny fahatezerany, fa mbola mihinjitra ihany ny tànany.
26 He lifts a banner for the distant nations and whistles for those at the ends of the earth. Behold—how speedily and swiftly they come!
Ary hanangana faneva ho amin’ ny firenena lavitra Izy sady hisiaka hiantso ny iray avy any am-paran’ ny tany; Ary, indro, ho avy faingana dia faingana ireo;
27 None of them grows weary or stumbles; no one slumbers or sleeps. No belt is loose and no sandal strap is broken.
Tsy hisy reraka na tafintohina ao aminy; Tsy ho rendrehana na hatory izy: Tsy hiboraka ny fehin-kibony, ary tsy ho tapaka ny fehin-kapany,
28 Their arrows are sharpened, and all their bows are strung. The hooves of their horses are like flint; their chariot wheels are like a whirlwind.
Maranitra ny zana-tsipìkany, Ary voahenjana avokoa ny tsipìkany; Ny kitron-tsoavaliny atao ho tahaka ny afovato; Ary ny kodiany ho tahaka ny tadio;
29 Their roaring is like that of a lion; they roar like young lions. They growl and seize their prey; they carry it away from deliverance.
Ny fierony dia tahaka ny fieron’ ny liom-bavy, Ary mierona tahaka ny liona tanora izy; Eny, manerona izy ka mandrapaka ny toha, Dia lasany, ka tsy azo alaina intsony.
30 In that day they will roar over it, like the roaring of the sea. If one looks over the land, he will see darkness and distress; even the light will be obscured by clouds.
Ary hirohondrohona aminy amin’ izany andro izany izy Tahaka ny firohondrohon’ ny ranomasina; Ary raha mijery ny tany ny olona, dia indro aizina sy fahoriana; Ary ny fahazavana hohamaizinin’ ny rahona.
