Esias 43
1 And now thus says the Lord God that made you, O Jacob, and formed you, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed you, I have called you [by] your name; you are mine.
Aa le hoe t’Iehovà namboatse azo, ry Iakobe, i nitsene azoy, ry Israele; ko hembañe fa nijebañe azo iraho, fa nikoihako ami’ty tahina’o, Ahiko irehe.
2 And if you pass through water, I am with you; and the rivers shall not overflow you: and if you go through fire, you shall not be burnt; the flame shall not burn you.
Ie mitsake o ranoo irehe, hindrezako, ie miranga saka, tsy handipora’e; ie misorok’ afo am-pandia tsy ho mae, le tsy hiviañe ama’o ty firebareba’e.
3 For I am the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, that saves you: I have made Egypt and Ethiopia your ransom, and [given] Soene for you.
Izaho Iehovà Andrianañahare’o, t’i Masi’ Israele, i Mpijebañe azoy; natoloko ho vilin’ai’o ty Mitsraime, i Kose naho i Sebà ho azo.
4 Since you became precious in my sight, you have become glorious, and I have loved you: and I will give men for you, and princes for your life.
Aa kanao sarotse am-pañenteako, naho mañeva asiñe, vaho kokoako; le lahilahy maro ty ho tolorako ho azo, vaho rofoko ho solom-piai’o.
5 Fear not; for I am with you: I will bring your seed from the east, and will gather you from the west.
Ko hembañe, fa indrezako; hendeseko boak’atiñanañe añe ty tiri’o, vaho hatontoko boak’ ahandrefañe añe.
6 I will say to the north, Bring; and to the south, Keep not back; bring my sons from the [land] afar off, and my daughters from the ends of the earth;
Hanao ty hoe iraho amy avaratsey: Hahao, naho ami’ty atimo: Ko tana’o, endeso boak’e tsietoitane añe o ana-dahikoo, naho boak’ añ’olo’ ty tane toy o anak’ampelakoo—
7 [even] all who are called by my name: for I have prepared him for my glory, and I have formed him, and have made him:
ze hene kanjieñe ami’ty añarako, o tsineneko ho ami’ty engekoo, o naoreko vaho namboarekoo.
8 and I have brought forth the blind people; for [their] eyes are alike blind, and they that have ears are deaf.
Akaro boak’ ao ondaty goa am-pihainoo, o giñe an-dravembiao.
9 All the nations are gathered together, and princes shall be gathered out of them: who will declare these things? or who will declare to you things from the beginning? let them bring forth their witnesses, and be justified; and let them hear, and declare the truth.
Hene mifanontone o kilakila’ ndatio, songa mivory ondatio; ia am’ iereo ty mahafitsey izay, hitaroñe aman-tika o raha haehaeo? Ampiboaho o valolombelo’ iareoo hahazoa’ iareo to; hijanjiñañe, hanoañe ty hoe: To izay.
10 Be you my witnesses, and I [too am] a witness, says the Lord God, and my servant whom I have chosen: that you may know, and believe, and understand that I am [he]: before me there was no other God, and after me there shall be none.
Inahareo ro valolombeloko, hoe t’Iehovà, naho ty mpitoroko jinoboko; hahafohina’ areo naho hatokisa’ areo ahy, haharendreke te Ie iraho; tsy eo ty ‘ndrahare niforoñeñe taoloko, vaho tsy eo ty hanonjohy ahy.
11 I am God; and beside me there is no Saviour.
Izaho le Izaho avao t’Iehovà; le naho tsy Izaho, tsy eo ty mpandrombake.
12 I have declared, and have saved; I have reproached, and there was no strange [god] amongst you: you are my witnesses, and I am the Lord God,
Fa nitaroñe iraho, naho nandrombake, naho nañoke, te tsy aman’ Andrianañahare ila’e nahareo; aa le inahareo ro valolombeloko, hoe t’Iehovà, Izaho ro Andrianañahare.
13 even from the beginning; and there is none that can deliver out of my hands: I will work, and who shall turn it back?
Eka, boak’ amy àndro zay, le fa ie iraho, vaho tsy eo ty hahatavañe ty an-tañako; hitoloñe iraho, le ia ty mahasebañe.
14 Thus says the Lord God that redeems you, the Holy One of Israel; for your sakes I will send to Babylon, and I will stir up all that flee, and the Chaldeans shall be bound in ships.
Hoe t’Iehovà mpijebañe anahareo, ty Masi’ Israele: inahareo ro nañitrifako e Bavele añe, le fonga nafotsako ho gike iareo naho o nte-Kasdy mitreñe o laka’eo.
15 I am the Lord God, your Holy One, who have appointed for Israel your king.
Izaho Iehovà, Masi’ areo, i mpamboats’ Israeley, ty Mpanjaka’ areo.
16 Thus says the Lord, who makes a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty water;
Aa hoe t’Iehovà mpamboatse lalañe mitsake i riakey, naho oloñoloñe mitoañe o rano mitroñeo;
17 who brought forth chariots and horse, and a mighty multitude: but they have lain down, and shall not rise: they are extinct, as quenched flax.
I mpañakatse i sarete reke-tsoavalaiy, o lahindefoñe naho haozara’eo— miharo fandreañe ao iereo, tsy hitroatse ka, fa mongotse, nakipeke hoe lamese.
18 Remember you not the former things, and consider not the ancient things.
Ko mitsakore o raha taoloo, ko mañereñere o raha haehaeo.
19 Behold, I [will] do new things, which shall presently spring forth, and you shall know them: and I will make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the dry land.
Heheke te manao raha vao iraho, hitiry ami’ty manao zao; aa tsy ho rendre’ areo hao? hanatahako lalañe ka ty am-patrañe añe, naho saka an-dratraratra ao.
20 the beasts of the field shall bless me, the owls and young ostriches; for I have given water in the wilderness, and rivers in the dry land, to give drink to my chosen race,
Hiasy ahy o biby an-kivokeo, o fanalokeo naho o voron-tsatrañeo, ty amo rano nanoeko am-patrañeo, naho o saka an-dratraratrao, hanjotsoako rano ondaty jinobokoo;
21 my people whom I have preserved to tell forth my praises.
Ho talilie’ ondaty namboareko ho ahikoo, ty engeko.
22 I have not now called you, O Jacob; neither have I made you weary, O Israel.
Fe tsy nikanjy ahy nahareo, ry Iakobe, namokoreko nahareo ry Israele.
23 You have not brought me the sheep of your whole burnt offering; neither have you glorified me with your sacrifices. I have not caused you to serve with sacrifices, neither have I wearied you with frankincense.
Tsy nisoroña’o ty añondri’o; tsy niasia’o amo engaeñeo; tsy nampijinieko engan-kaneñe, tsy nivozaheko ami’ty tsotse.
24 Neither have you purchased for me victims for silver, neither have I desired the fat of your sacrifices: but you did stand before me in your sins, and in your iniquities.
Tsy nibanabana’o fare naho drala, tsy nahaeneñ’ Ahy ty safom-pisoroña’o; te mone nampavesare’o amako o tahi’oo, vaho namokore’o amo hakeo’oo.
25 I, [even] I, am he that blots out your transgressions for mine own sake, and your sins; and I will not remember [them].
Izaho le Izaho avao ty namaoke o fiolà’o amakoo. vaho tsy ho tiahiko ka o hakeo’oo.
26 But do you remember, and let us plead [together]: do you first confess your transgressions, that you may be justified.
Ajoño am-pitiahia’o ao iraho, antao hifaneseke; mitalilia hahazoa’o to.
27 Your fathers first, and your princes have transgressed against me.
Nandilatse i rae’o valoha’ey, vaho manan-kakeo amako ondati-aivo’oo;
28 And the princes have defiled my sanctuaries: so I gave Jacob [to enemies] to destroy, and Israel to reproach.
Aa le vinetako o ana-dona’ i toetse miavakeio, nengaeko am-patse t’Iakobe, vaho an-teratera t’Israele.
