Isaiah 55
1 Ho! everyone in need, come to the waters, and he who has no strength, let him get food: come, get bread without money; wine and milk without price.
O ry taliñiereñeo! Mb’an-drano mb’etoa! Ry tsy aman-dràlao, mb’etoa mivily, vaho mikama, eka, ikalò divay naho ronono tsy aman-drala, tsy amam-bili’e.
2 Why do you give your money for what is not bread, and the fruit of your work for what will not give you pleasure? Give ear to me, so that your food may be good, and you may have the best in full measure.
Inoñe ty andrita’ areo drala amo tsy mahakamao, naho itoloña’ areo o tsy mañenekeo? Haoño iraho, mitsatsiha, vaho kamao ty soa, ampifaleo ty fiai’ areo ami’ty betro’e.
3 Give ear, and come to me, take note with care, so that your souls may have life: and I will make an eternal agreement with you, even the certain mercies of David.
Atokilaño amako o ravembia’ areoo; Mijanjiña, hahaveloñe ty tro’ areo, vaho hanoako fañina tsy modo, o fiferenaiña’ i Davideo.
4 See, I have given him as a witness to the peoples, a ruler and a guide to the nations.
Ingo, t’ie nanoeko mpañalañalañe amo kilakila’ndatio, mpiaolo naho mpameleke ondaty.
5 See, you will send for a nation of which you had no knowledge, and those who had no knowledge of you will come running to you, because of the Lord your God, and because of the Holy One of Israel, for he has given you glory.
Ingo! ho koihe’o ty tane tsy fohi’o, vaho hilay mb’ama’o mb’eo ty tane tsy mahafohiñe azo, ty am’ Iehovà, Andrianañahare’o, i Masi’ Israeley, ihe nitolora’e engeñe.
6 Make search for the Lord while he is there, make prayer to him while he is near:
Paiao t’Iehovà ie mbe mete ho oniñe, ikanjio te mbe marine eo.
7 Let the sinner give up his way, and the evil-doer his purpose: and let him come back to the Lord, and he will have mercy on him; and to our God, for there is full forgiveness with him.
Ee te hapo’ i tsereheñey o sata rati’eo vaho hado’ i mengokey o fikinià’eo; himpoly mb’am’ Iehovà hitretreza’e, naho mb’aman’ Añahare hilosora’e tàha.
8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, or your ways my ways, says the Lord.
Toe tsy fitsakoreako o vetsevetse’ areoo, vaho tsy lalako o lala’ areoo, hoe t’Iehovà.
9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
Mira ami’ty maha ambone’ ty tane toy o likerañeo ty ha-andikera’ o lalakoo te amo sata’ areoo, naho o ereñerekoo te amo fitsakorean-tro’ areoo.
10 For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, and does not go back again, but gives water to the earth, and makes it fertile, giving seed to the planter, and bread for food;
Hambañe ami’ty fiavi’ o orañeo naho o oram-panala boak’ andindiñeo ie tsy mibalike, naho tsy tondraha’e hey o taneo hampamokara’e naho hampitovoaña’e, hamahana’e doria ami” ty mpitongy naho ampemba ami’ty mikama,
11 So will my word be which goes out of my mouth: it will not come back to me with nothing done, but it will give effect to my purpose, and do that for which I have sent it.
Toe izay ty fiakara’ ty entako am-bavako ao; ie tsy holy mañomaño amako, fa ho fonire’e o satrikoo, vaho ho henefe’e ty namantohako.
12 For you will go out with joy, and be guided in peace: the mountains and the hills will make melody before you, and all the trees of the fields will make sounds of joy.
Hiavotse an-kafaleañe nahareo, vaho hampionjoneñe am-pierañerañañe; ho poñafe’ o vohitseo ty sabo aolo’ areo, le hene hiteha-tañañe ze hatae am-patrañe añe.
13 In place of the thorn will come up the fir-tree, and in place of the blackberry the myrtle: and it will be to the Lord for a name, for an eternal sign which will not be cut off.
Hitovoañe hisolo ty fatike ty mendoraveñe, vaho handimbe ty hisatse ty beifelañe. Ho fitiahiañe Iehovà izay, ho viloñe nainai’e tsy modo, tsy haitoañe.
