< Joel 3 >

1 For, behold, in those days and at that time, when I shall have turned the captivity of Juda and Jerusalem,
Fa, indro, amin’ ireo andro ireo sy amin’ izany fotoana izany, raha hampodiko ny Joda sy Jerosalema avy amin’ ny fahababoany,
2 I will also gather all the Gentiles, and bring them down to the valley of Josaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and my heritage Israel, who have been dispersed among the Gentiles; and [these Gentiles] have divided my land,
Dia hangoniko ny jentilisa rehetra ka ho entiko midìna ao amin’ ny Lohasahan’ i Josafata, ary ao no hifandaharako aminy noho ny amin’ ny Isiraely, oloko sy lovako, izay naeliny tany amin’ ny jentilisa; Ary nozarazarainy ny taniko,
3 and cast lots over my people, and have given [their] boys to harlots, and sold [their] girls for wine, and have drunk.
Sady nanaovany loka ny oloko, dia zazalahy no nataony takalon’ ny vehivavy janga, ary zazavavy no namidiny divay ka nosotroiny.
4 And what have ye to do with me, O Tyre, and Sidon, and all Galilee of the Gentiles? do ye render me a recompense? or do ye bear malice against me? quickly and speedily will I return your recompense on your own heads:
Ary ianareo koa, ry Tyro sy Sidona, sy ry tany Filistia rehetra, moa mampaninona Ahy akory ianareo? Hamaly Ahy va ianareo, sa hanahoana Ahy? Faingana dia faingana no hanatsingerenako ny nataonareo ho eo an-dohanareo,
5 because ye have taken my silver and my gold, and ye have brought my choice ornaments into your temples;
Noho ny natanareo ny volafotsiko sy ny volamenako, sy ny nitondranareo ny zava-tsoako mahafinaritra ho ao amin’ ny tempolinareo;
6 and ye have sold the children of Juda and the children of Jerusalem to the children of the Greeks, that ye might expel them from their coasts.
Ary ny zanak’ i Joda sy ny zanak’ i Jerosalema dia namidinareo tamin’ ny zanaky ny Grika, hamindranareo azy hanalavitra ny taniny.
7 Therefore, behold, I [will] raise them up out of the place whither ye have sold them, and I will return your recompense on your own heads.
Indro, hofohaziko izy hiala ny amin’ ny tany Izay nahaverezany noho ny nahalafosanareo azy, ary hatsingeriko ho eo an-dohanareo ny nataonareo,
8 And I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hands of the children of Juda, and they shall sell them into captivity to a far distant nation: for the Lord has spoken [it].
Ka hamidiko ho lasan’ ny zanak’ i Joda kosa ny zanakalahinareo sy ny zanakavavinareo, ary hamidiny amin’ ny Sabeana kosa ireny, dia ho an’ izay firenena lavitra; Fa Jehovah no efa niteny.
9 Proclaim these things among the Gentiles; declare war, arouse the warriors, draw near and go up, all ye men of war.
Antsoy any amin’ ny jentilisa izany, miantsoa hanao ady masìna, fohazy ny lehilahy mahery, aoka handroso ny mpiady rehetra ka hiakatra;
10 Beat your ploughshares into swords, and your sickles into spears: let the weak say, I am strong.
Tefeo ho sabatra ny fangadinareo, ary ho lefona ny antsinareo fanetezam-boaloboka; Aoka izay kelikely aina hihiaka hoe: Mahery aho!
11 Gather yourselves together, and go in, all ye nations round about, and gather yourselves there; let the timid become a warrior.
Avia faingana, ianareo jentilisa rehetra avy eny manodidina eny, dia ento midìna ao ny maherinao, Jehovah ô.
12 Let them be aroused, let all the nations go up to the valley of Josaphat: for there will I sit to judge all the Gentiles round about.
Hifoha ny jentilisa ka hiakatra ho ao amin’ ny Lohasahan’ i Josafata; Fa ao no hipetrahako hitsara ny jentilisa rehetra avy eny manodidina eny.
13 Bring forth the sickles, for the vintage is come: go in, tread [the grapes], for the press is full: cause the vats to overflow; for their wickedness is multiplied.
Arosoy ny fijinjana, fa masaka ny vokatra; Avia ianareo, ka manosihose, fa feno ny famiazam-boaloboka, mihoatra ny vata fanantazana, fa be ny faharatsiany.
14 Noises have resounded in the valley of judgment: for the day of the Lord is near in the valley of judgment.
He izany vahoaka mireondreona ao amin’ ny lohasaha fitsarana! Fa efa antomotra ny andron’ i Jehovah ao amin’ ny lohasaha fitsarana.
15 The sun and the moon shall be darkened, and the stars shall withdraw their light.
Ny masoandro sy ny volana ho tonga maizina, ary ny kintana tsy hamirapiratra,
16 And the Lord shall cry out of Sion, and shall utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the heaven and the earth shall be shaken, but the Lord shall spare his people, and shall strengthen the children of Israel.
Jehovah mierona ao Ziona, ary mampikotroka ao Jerosalema, ka hihorohoro ny tany aman-danitra; Fa Jehovah no fialofan’ ny olony sy fiarovana mafy ho an’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely.
17 And ye shall know that I am the Lord your God, who dwell in Sion my holy mountain: and Jerusalem shall be holy, and strangers shall not pass through her anymore.
Ary dia ho fantatrareo fa Izaho no Jehovah Andriamanitrareo, Izay monina ao Ziona, tendrombohitro masìna; Dia ho masìna Jerosalema, ary ny hafa firenena tsy mba handeha hamaky eo intsony.
18 And it shall come to pass in that day [that] the mountains shall drop sweet wine, and the hills shall flow with milk, and all the fountains of Juda shall flow with water, and a fountain shall go forth of the house of the Lord, and water the valley of flags.
Amin’ izany andro izany dia hipoipoitra ranom-boaloboka ny tendrombohitra, handriaka ronono ny havoana, ho feno rano ny lohasahan-driak’ i Joda rehetra, ary hisy loharano hivoaka avy ao an-tranon’ i Jehovah ka handena ny lohasahan-driak’ i Sitima.
19 Egypt shall be a desolation, and Idumea shall be a desolate plain, because of the wrongs of the children of Juda, because they have shed righteous blood in their land.
Egypta kosa ho tonga tany lao, ary Edoma ho efitra foana, noho ny fampahoriana ny taranak’ i Joda, dia ny nandatsahany rà marina teo amin’ ny taniny.
20 But Judea shall be inhabited for ever, and Jerusalem to all generations.
Fa Joda honenana mandrakizay, ary Jerosalema hatramin’ ny taranaka fara mandimby.
21 And I will make inquisition for their blood, and will by no means leave it unavenged: and the Lord shall dwell in Sion.
Ary hamaly ny rà marina izay tsy mbola novaliako Aho; Fa Jehovah monina ao Ziona.
