Isaiah 18
1 Ha! land shadowing with wings, which art beyond the rivers of Cush,
Hankàñe, ty tane aman’elatse miñiñiñìñe, alafe’ o toraha’ i Koseo;
2 that sendest ambassadors over the sea, and in vessels of papyrus upon the waters, [saying, ] Go, swift messengers, to a nation scattered and ravaged, to a people terrible from their existence and thenceforth; to a nation of continued waiting and of treading down, whose land the rivers have spoiled!
Ie mampañitrike sorotà mb’an-driake, an-dakam-binda lava ambone’ o ranoo! Dàñe ry mpihitrike, masikà, mb’ an-tane’ ondaty abo naho aman-kolitse mendoo; ondaty mampangebahebake ty ao naho ty añe; ondaty gañe vaho mandialia, i tane’ iareo zarazaraen-torahañey.
3 All ye inhabitants of the world, and dwellers on the earth, when a banner is lifted up on the mountains, see ye, and when a trumpet is blown, hear ye!
Ry hene mpimoneñe ami’ty voatse toio, ry mpitoboke an-tane ao, ie mitroatse an-kaboa’ o vohitseo ty viloñe, le mahaisaha; naho mipopò i antsivay, mijanjiña.
4 For thus hath Jehovah said unto me: I will take my rest, and I will observe from my dwelling-place like clear heat upon herbs, like a cloud of dew in the heat of harvest.
Fa hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà amako: hitàn-kahendrean-dRaho, vaho hijilojilo boak’am- pimoneñako atoy, hoe hatrevohan-tsingilingilieñe an-tariñandroke, manahake raho-mika an-katrovoham-pitatahañe,
5 For before the harvest, when the blossoming is over, and the flower becometh a ripening grape, he shall both cut off the sprigs with pruning-knives, and take away [and] cut down the branches.
aolo’ i fitatahañey, ie fa nihintsam-boñe, ie mihamatoe i valoboke makiray, le ho hitsikitsifem-pibira miporengotse o singa’eo, handrantsañe o tsampa’e mandrevakeo.
6 They shall be left together unto the mountain birds of prey, and to the beasts of the earth; and the birds of prey shall summer upon them, and all the beasts of the earth shall winter upon them.
Harongoñe eo iereo ho a o voro-pitsindroke am-bohitseo, naho ho a o bibin-kivokeo; le ho ama’e o voro-pitsindrokeo naho asara, vaho hiasotry ama’e ze hene bibi’ ty tane toy.
7 In that time shall a present be brought unto Jehovah of hosts of a people scattered and ravaged, — and from a people terrible from their existence and thenceforth, a nation of continued waiting and of treading down, whose land the rivers have spoiled, ...to the place of the name of Jehovah of hosts, the mount Zion.
Ie amy andro zay, hanese ravoravo am’ Iehovà’ i Màroy ondaty abo naho aman-kolitse mendoo, ondaty mampangebahebake ao naho añeo; foko gañe vaho mandialia, an-tane zarazaraen-torahañe; mb’an-toen-tahina’ Iehovà i Màroy: mb’ambohi-Tsione mb’eo.
