Esias 47
1 Come down, sit on the ground, O virgin daughter of Babylon: sit on the ground, O daughter of the Chaldeans: for you shall no more be called tender and luxurious.
Mialà, ka mipetraha amin’ ny vovoka, ry Babylona, zanakavavy virijina! Mipetraha eo amin’ ny tany, fa tsy amin’ ny seza fiandrianana, ry Kaldea zanakavavy! Fa tsy hatao hoe vehivavy malemilemy sy mihantahanta intsony ianao.
2 Take a millstone, grind meal: remove your veil, uncover your white hairs, make bare the leg, pass through the rivers.
Alao ny vato fikosoham-bary, ka kosohy ny koba; esory ny fisalobonanao, akaro ny moron-tongotr’ akanjonao; aoka hiseho ny fenao, ka miroboha mita ny ony.
3 Your shame shall be uncovered, your reproaches shall be brought to light: I will exact of you due vengeance, I will no longer deliver you to men.
Hiseho ny fitanjahanao, eny, ho hita ny fahamenaranao; hitondra famaliana Aho ka tsy hiantra olona.
4 Your deliverer is the Lord of hosts, the Holy One of Israel is his name.
Ny anaran’ ny Mpanavotra anay dia Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Iray Masin’ ny Isiraely.
5 Sit you down pierced with woe, go into darkness, O daughter of the Chaldeans: you shall no more be called the strength of a kingdom.
Mipetraha mangingina, ka midìra ao amin’ ny maizina, ry Kaldea zanakavavy! Fa tsy hatao hoe Tompovavin’ ny fanjakana intsony ianao.
6 I have been provoked with my people; you have defiled mine inheritance: I gave them into your hand, but you did not extend mercy to them: you made the yoke of the aged man very heavy,
Tezitra tamin’ ny oloko Aho; navelako holotoina ny lovako, ka natolotro ho eo an-tananao izy, tsy mba namindranao fo izy, fa na dia ny antitra aza dia nasianao zioga mavesatra dia mavesatra.
7 and said, I shall be a princess for ever: you did not perceive these things in your heart, nor did you remember the latter end.
Ary hoy ianao: Ho tompovavy mandrakizay Aho; ka dia tsy nandatsaka am-po izany zavatra izany ianao, na nitsapa izay hiafarany.
8 But now hear these words, you luxurious one, [who are] the one that sits [at ease], that is secure, that says in her heart, I am, and there is not another; I shall not sit a widow, neither shall I know bereavement.
Koa mihainoa, ianao izay mihantahanta sady mipetraka tsy manana ahiahy ka manao anakampo hoe: Izaho no izy, ary tsy misy hafa; tsy hipetraka ho mpitondratena aho, na hahita fahafoanan’ anaka.
9 But now these two things shall come upon you suddenly in one day, the loss of children and widowhood shall come suddenly upon you, for your sorcery, for the strength of your enchantments,
Kanjo hanjo anao tampoka amin’ ny indray andro monja ireto zavatra roa ireto, dia ny fahafoanan’ anaka sy ny fananoan-tena; Hotanterahina aminao avokoa izany, na dia maro aza ny fankatovanao, ary na dia be dia be aza ny odinao.
10 for your trusting in wickedness: for you said, I am, and there is not another: know you, the understanding of these things and your harlotry shall be your shame; for you said in your heart, I am, and there is not another.
Fa nitoky tamin’ ny faharatsianao ianao ka nanao hoe: Tsy misy mahita ahy. Ny fahendrenao sy ny fahalalanao dia nampivily anao, ka dia nanao anakampo ianao hoe: Izaho no izy, fa tsy misy afa-tsy izaho.
11 And destruction shall come upon you, and you shall not be aware; [there shall be a] pit, and you shall fall into it: and grief shall come upon you, and you shall not be able to be clear; and destruction shall come suddenly upon you, and you shall not know.
Kanjo hanjo anao ny fahoriana, nefa tsy ho fantatrao izay fanafany; Ary hahazo anao ny loza, nefa tsy ho hainao ny fanàlany; eny, hanjo anao tampoka ny fandringanana izay tsy ampoizinao.
12 Stand now with your enchantments, and with the abundance of your sorcery, which you have learnt from your youth; if you can be profited.
Arosoy ary ny odinao sy ny hamaroan’ ny fankatovanao, izay efa nisasaranao hatry ny fony ianao mbola kely; Angamba hahavita izay mahasoa ianao; angamba ho tonga mahatahotra ianao.
13 You are wearied in your counsels. Let now the astrologers of the heaven stand and deliver you, let them that see the stars tell you what is about to come upon you.
Sasatra noho ny hamaroan’ ny fisainanao ianao; aoka hitsangana ankehitriny ireo mpamantatra ny lanitra sy mpandinika ny kintana ireo hamonjy anao, dia ireo mpanambara isaky ny tsinam-bolana izay zavatra ho tonga aminao.
14 Behold, they all shall be burnt up as sticks in the fire; neither shall they at all deliver their life from the flame. Because you have coals of fire, sit you upon them;
Indro, fa ho tahaka ny vodivary ireo; ho main’ ny afo izy ka tsy hahavonjy ny tenany amin’ ny herin’ ny lelafo akory; tsy misy vainafo hamindroana, na afo hitaninana aza.
15 these shall be your help. You have wearied yourself with traffic from your youth: every man has wandered to his own home, but you shall have no deliverance.
Ho toy izany aminao ireo efa nisasaranao ireo, dia ireo nifampivarotra taminao hatry ny fony ianao mbola kely; samy hipariaka mandositra ho any amin’ ny fonenany avy izy, ka tsy hisy hahavonjy anao.
