Esias 42
1 Jacob is my servant, I will help him: Israel is my chosen, my soul has accepted him; I have put my Spirit upon him; he shall bring forth judgment to the Gentiles.
Indro ny Mpanompoko, Izay tantanako, dia Ilay voafidiko sady sitraky ny foko Napetrako tao aminy ny Fanahiko; Hamoaka fitsipika ho an’ ny jentilisa Izy.
2 He shall not cry, nor lift up [his voice], nor shall his voice be heard without.
Tsy hiantsoantso Izy, na hanandratra ny feony, na hanao izay handrenesana ny feony eny an-dalana.
3 A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench; but he shall bring forth judgment to truth.
Tsy hotapahiny ny volotara torotoro, ary tsy hovonoiny ny lahin-jiro manetona; Hamoaka izay tena rariny tokoa Izy.
4 He shall shine out, and shall not be discouraged, until he have set judgment on the earth: and in his name shall the Gentiles trust.
Tsy ho reraka na ho kivy Izy, Mandra-panoriny ny rariny amin’ ny tany, ary ny nosy hiandry ny lalàny.
5 Thus saith the Lord God, who made the heaven, and established it; who settled the earth, and the things in it, and gives breath to the people on it, and spirit to them that tread on it:
Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Andriamanitra, Izay nahary ny lanitra sy nanenjana azy, Izay namelatra ny tany sy ny vokatra avy aminy, Izay manome fofonaina ny olona eo aminy sy fanahy ho an’ izay mandeha eo aminy:
6 I the Lord God have called thee in righteousness, and will hold thine hand, and will strengthen thee: and I have given thee for the covenant of a race, for a light of the Gentiles:
Izaho Jehovah efa niantso Anao tamin’ ny fahamarinana sy nitantana ny tananao, Ary hiaro Anao Aho ka hanome Anao ho fanekena ho an’ ny olona, Ho fanazavana ny jentilisa,
7 to open the eyes of the blind, to bring the bound and them that sit in darkness out of bonds and the prison-house.
Hampahiratra ny mason’ ny jamba, hamoaka ny mpifatotra hiala ao an-trano-maizina ary izay mipetraka ao amin’ ny maizina hiala ao an-trano famatorana.
8 I am the Lord God: that is my name: I will not give my glory to another, nor my praises to graven images.
Izaho no Jehovah, izany no anarako, ka ny voninahitro tsy homeko ny hafa, na ny fiderana Ahy ho an’ ny sarin-javatra voasokitra.
9 Behold, the ancient things have come to pass, and [so will] the new things which I tell you: yea, before I tell [them] they are made known to you.
Ny amin’ ny zavatra taloha, dia indreo, efa miseho; Ary zava-baovao kosa no toriko izao; Na dia tsy mbola miposaka aza ireny, dia ambarako aminareo.
10 Sing a new hymn to the Lord: ye [who are] his dominion, glorify his name from the end of the earth: ye that go down to the sea, and sail upon it; the islands, and they that dwell in them.
Hianareo izay midìna any amin’ ny ranomasina sy ny ao aminy rehetra, dia ianareo nosy sy ny mponina ao aminy, samia mihira fihiram-baovao ho an’ i Jehovah, dia ny fiderana Azy hatramin’ ny faran’ ny tany.
11 Rejoice, thou wilderness, and the villages thereof, the hamlets, and the dwellers in Kedar: the inhabitants of the rock shall rejoice, they shall shout from the top of the mountains.
Aoka ny efitra sy ireo tanàna eny aminy hanandratra ny feony, dia ny vohitra izay onenan’ i Kedara; Aoka hihoby ny mponina any Sela; Ary aoka hanao feo avo any an-tampon’ ny tendrombohitra izy.
12 They shall give glory to God, [and] shall proclaim his praises in the islands.
Aoka hanome voninahitra an’ i Jehovah izy Ary hitory ny fiderana Azy any amin’ ny nosy.
13 The Lord God of hosts shall go forth, and crush the war: he shall stir up jealousy, and shall shout mightily against his enemies.
Jehovah mivoaka tahaka ny lehilahy mahery, tahaka ny fanaon’ ny mpiady no amohazany ny fahatezerany; Miantsoantso Izy, eny, mihiaka mafy; Mampiseho hery haharesy ny fahavalony Izy.
14 I have been silent: shall I also always be silent and forbear: I have endured like a travailing [woman]: I will [now] amaze and wither at once.
Efa tsy niteny Aho hatrizay hatrizay, nangina ihany Aho ka nanindry fo; Fa izao Aho dia mitaraina tahaka ny vehivavy raha miteraka, eny, miehakehaka tsy avy miaina.
15 I will make desolate mountains and hills, and will dry up all their grass; and I will make the rivers islands, and dry up the pools.
Hataoto mariry ny tendrombohitra sy ny havoana, hataoko maina ny ahitra rehetra ao aminy, ary ny ony ho tonga nosy, Ary hataoko tankina ny farihy.
16 And I will bring the blind by a way that they knew not, and I will cause them to tread paths which they have not known: I will turn darkness into light for them, and crooked things into straight. These things will I do, and will not forsake them.
Hitarika ny jamba amin’ izay lalana tsy fantany Aho; ary amin’ ny lalana tsy fantany no hitondrako azy; Ny maizina dia hataoko mazava eo anoloany, ary ny mikitoantoana halamako tsara; Izany zavatra izany no hataoko aminy ka tsy hamelako.
17 But they are turned back: be ye utterly ashamed that trust in graven [images], who say to the molten [images], Ye are our gods.
Hihemotra sady ho menatra tokoa izay matoky ny sarin-javatra voasokitra, dia izay manao amin’ ny sarin-javatra an-idina hoe: Hianareo no andriamanitray.
18 Hear, ye deaf, and look up, ye blind, to see.
Mihainoa ianareo, ry marenina; Ary mijere, ry jamba, mba hahita.
19 And who is blind, but my servants? and deaf, but they that rule over them? yea, the servants of God have been made blind.
Iza no jamba, afa-tsy ny mpanompoko? Ary iza no marenina tahaka ny iraka izay irahiko? Iza no jamba tahaka ny sakaizan’ i Jehovah, ary jamba tahaka ny mpanompony?
20 Ye have often seen, and have not taken heed; [your] ears have been opened, and ye have not heard.
Mahita zavatra maro ianao, nefa tsy mitandrina; Manongilana ny sofiny izy, nefa tsy mihaino.
21 The Lord God has taken counsel that he might be justified, and might magnify [his] praise.
Sitrak’ i Jehovah noho ny fahamarinany ny hahalehibe ny lalàna sy ny hahabe voninahitra azy.
22 And I beheld, and the people were spoiled and plundered: for [there is] a snare in the secret chambers everywhere, and in the houses also, where they have hidden them: they became a spoil, and there was no one that delivered the prey, and there was none who said, Restore.
Kanefa ity dia firenena nobaboina sy norobaina; Voafandrika ao an-davaka avokoa izy rehetra ary voàfina ao an-trano-maizina; Voababo izy, ka tsy misy mamonjy; Voasambotra izy, ka tsy misy manao hoe: Ampodio.
23 Who [is there] among you that will give ear to these things? hearken ye to the things which are coming to pass.
Iza aminareo no hihaino iza-ny? Iza no handre, dia hitandrina izany amin’ ny andro ho avy?
24 For what did he give to Jacob up to spoil, and Israel to them that plundered him? Did not God [do it] against whom they sinned? [and] they would not walk in his ways, nor hearken to his law.
Iza no nanolotra an’ i Jakoba hosamborina, ary Isiraely ho an’ ny mpamabo? Tsy Jehovah, Izay efa nanotantsika va? Satria tsy nety nandeha tamin’ ny lalany ireo, sady tsy nety nihaino ny lalàny;
25 So he brought upon them the fury of his wrath; and the war, and those that burnt round about them, prevailed against them; yet no one of them knew [it], neither did they lay [it] to heart.
Ka dia nalatsany taminy ny firehitry ny fahatezerany sy ny halozan’ ny ady; Dia nampirehitra azy manodidina izany nefa tsy fantany; Ary nandoro azy, nefa tsy noheverin’ ny fony
