Isaiah 31
1 Woe to those who descend into Egypt for assistance, hoping in horses, and putting their trust in four-horse chariots because they are many, and in horsemen because they are exceedingly strong. And they have not believed in the Holy One of Israel, and they have not sought the Lord.
Lozan’ izay midìna any Egypta hitady famonjena sy miantehitra amin’ ny soavaly ary matoky ny kalesy, satria maro ireny, sy ny mpitaingin-tsoavaly, satria mahery dia mahery ireny, fa tsy manandrandra ny Iray Masin’ ny Isiraely, na mitady an’ i Jehovah.
2 Therefore, being wise, he has permitted harm, and he has not removed his words, and he will rise up against the house of the wicked and against those who assist the workers of iniquity.
Nefa Izy koa dia hendry ka mahatonga loza, ary tsy tsoahany ny teniny; Fa mitsangana Izy hamely ny mpianakavin’ ny mpanao ratsy sy izay manampy ny mpanao meloka.
3 Egypt is man, and not God. And their horses are flesh, and not spirit. And so, the Lord will reach down his hand, and the helper will fall, and the one who was being helped will fall, and they will all be consumed together.
Fa olona ihany ny Egyptiana fa tsy Andriamanitra; Ary nofo ihany ny soavaliny, fa tsy fanahy. Koa raha ahinjitr’ i Jehovah ny tànany, dia ho tafintohina izay manampy, ary ho potraka izay ampiana, ka samy ho levona avokoa izy roa tonta.
4 For the Lord says this to me: In the same way that a lion roars, and a young lion is over his prey, and though a multitude of shepherds may meet him, he will not dread their voice, nor be afraid of their number, so will the Lord of hosts descend in order to battle upon mount Zion and upon its hill.
Fa izao no nolazain’ i Jehovah tamiko: Tahaka ny fieron’ ny liona sy ny liona tanora eo amin’ ny rembiny, ka na dia voangona aza ny mpiandry ondry betsaka hamely azy, Tsy matahotra ny feon’ ireo izy, na mandatsa-dremby noho ny fihorakorahany, dia tahaka izany no hidinan’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Hiady ao an-tendrombohitra Ziona sy ny havoany.
5 Like birds flying, so will the Lord of hosts protect Jerusalem, protecting and freeing, passing over and saving.
Tahaka ny vorona manomba no hiarovan’ i Jehovah, tompon’ ny maro, an’ i Jerosalema, fa sady hiaro no hamonjy Izy, eny, sady hiantra no hanafaka.
6 Be converted to the same depth that you have drawn away, O sons of Israel.
Koa miverena ho amin’ izay efa niodinanareo fatratra, ry zanak’ Isiraely ô.
7 For in that day, a man will cast away his idols of silver and his idols of gold, which your hands have made for you unto sin.
Fa amin’ izany andro izany dia harian’ ny olona rehetra ny andriamani-bolafotsiny sy ny andriamani-bolamenany, izay fahotana nataon’ ny tananareo.
8 And Assur will fall by a sword not of man, and a sword not of man will devour him. And he will not flee from the face of the sword, and his young men will be subject to a penalty.
Ary ny Asyriana ho lavon’ ny sabatra izay tsy mba an’ olombelona, eny, sabatra izay tsy mba an’ olombelona no handringanana azy; Dia handositra ny sabatra izy, ary ny zatovony hampanaovina fanompoana,
9 And his strength will pass away in terror, and his princes will flee in fear. The Lord has said it. His fire is in Zion, and his furnace is at Jerusalem.
Ary ny mpanjakany ho lasa noho ny fahatahorana, Ary mpanapaka azy hivadi-po noho ny faneva, hoy Jehovah, Izay manana ny afony ao Ziona sy ny fatany fandoroana ao Jerosalema.
