Isaiah 38
1 In those days Hezekiah was sick unto death. And the prophet Isaiah the son of Amoz came to him, and said to him, Thus saith Jehovah: Set thy house in order; for thou shalt die, and not live.
Ie amy andro rezay, natindry fa heta’e t’Iekizkia; le nimb’ama’e mb’eo t’Iesaià ana’ i Amotse, nanao ty hoe: Hoe t’Iehovà: Hajario ty anjomba’o fa toe hivetrake, tsy ho veloñe.
2 And Hezekiah turned his face to the wall, and prayed to Jehovah,
Nampitolihe’ Iekizkia mb’ an-drindriñe ty lahara’e vaho nihalaly am’ Iehovà,
3 and said, Ah, Jehovah, remember, I beseech thee, how I have walked before thee in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in thy sight. And Hezekiah wept much.
ty hoe: Mihalaly ama’o, ry Iehovà, tiahio henaneo ty fandenàko añatrefa’o an-kavantañañe naho an-kaliforan-troke, vaho nanao ze mahity am-pahaoniña’o; aa ie nangololoike ty rovetse,
4 And the word of Jehovah came to Isaiah, saying,
nivotrak’ am’ Iesaià ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
5 Go and say to Hezekiah, Thus saith Jehovah, the God of David thy father: I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will add to thy days fifteen years.
Akia saontsio am’ Iekizkia ty hoe: Hoe t’Iehovà, Andrianañaharen-drae’o Davide. Fa jinanjiko i halali’oy, nitreako o ranom-pihaino’oo; ingo ho tovoñako taoñe folo lim’ amby o andro’oo.
6 And I will deliver thee and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria, and I will defend this city.
Ho hahako am-pitàm-panjaka’ i Asore irehe naho ty rova toy vaho harovako ty rova toy;
7 And this [shall be] the sign to thee from Jehovah, that Jehovah will do this thing that he hath spoken:
le zao ty ho viloñe ama’o boak’am’ Iehovà, te ho henefa’ Iehovà i raha tsinara’ey:
8 behold, I will bring again the shadow of the degrees which hath gone down with the sun on the dial of Ahaz, ten degrees backward. So the sun returned on the dial ten degrees, by which it had gone down.
Heheke te hampibaliheko soritse folo amo soritse fa nilia’eo ty talinjom-panondro-andro’ i Akhaze. Aa le nibalik’ amy soritse folo fa nomba’ey i àndroy.
9 The writing of Hezekiah king of Judah, when he had been sick and had recovered from his sickness:
Inao ty sinoki’ Iekizkia mpanjaka’ Iehodà, t’ie natindry an-tihy vaho nijangañe amy arete’ey.
10 I said, In the meridian of my days I shall go to the gates of Sheol: I am deprived of the rest of my years. (Sheol h7585)
Hoe iraho: Ami’ty tsipinde-mena’ o androkoo ty ijoñako an-dalambein-tsikeokeoke eo; kinalañ’ amako o andro tsy nirikoo. (Sheol h7585)
11 I said, I shall not see Jah, Jah in the land of the living. With those who dwell where all has ceased to be, I shall behold man no more.
Hoe iraho: tsy ho treako t’Ià, Eka, Ià an-tane’ o veloñeo; tsy ho isako ka t’indaty mindre amo mpimone’ ty tane toio.
12 Mine age is departed, and is removed from me as a shepherd's tent. I have cut off like a weaver my life. He separateth me from the thrum: — from day to night thou wilt make an end of me.
Nombotañe vaho nasitake amako hoe kibohom-piarak’ añondry ty kijàko; nahoronkoroñe hoe te asam-panenoñe ty fiaiko: tinampa’e amy tenoñey iraho, handro an-kaleñe ty hamongora’o ty fiaiko.
13 I kept still until the morning; ...as a lion, so doth he break all my bones. From day to night thou wilt make an end of me.
Nifeahako pak’ami’ty maraiñe, manahake ty liona, fe mbe nipozapozake iaby o taolakoo, añivo ty handro naho ty haleñe ty nampigadoña’o ahy.
14 Like a swallow [or] a crane, so did I chatter; I mourned as a dove; mine eyes failed [with looking] upward: Lord, I am oppressed; undertake for me.
Mikora hoe tivoke naho aliotse iraho; mikò hoe deho; nimokore’ ty fiandrandràko o masokoo. O ry Iehovà, voatindry iraho, Ihe abey ro tsoako.
15 What shall I say? He hath both spoken unto me, and himself hath done [it]. I shall go softly all my years in the bitterness of my soul.
Ino ty ho volañeko? Nametse amako re mbore nanoe’e; hiezañe amo hene androkoo iraho, ami’ty hafairam-piaiko.
16 Lord, by these things [men] live, and in all these things is the life of my spirit; and thou hast recovered me, and made me to live.
O Talè, irezay o mahajangañe ondatio, mampanintsiñe ty troko irehe; vaho mameloñ’ ahy.
17 Behold, instead of peace I had bitterness upon bitterness; but thou hast in love delivered my soul from the pit of destruction; for thou hast cast all my sins behind thy back.
Tsy nanjo fañanintsin-draho te mone haaferon’ aiko; fe o fikokoa’o ahikoo ro nañaha’o ahy amy kobon-kamodoañey; vaho fonga nahifi’o amboho’o ao o hakeokoo.
18 For not Sheol shall praise thee, nor death celebrate thee; they that go down into the pit do not hope for thy truth. (Sheol h7585)
Tsy mahafandrenge Azo ty tsikeokeoke, tsy hañonjoñe azo ty havilasy; tsy mahafitamà ty figahiña’o ty migodañe mb’an-koak’ ao. (Sheol h7585)
19 The living, the living, he shall praise thee, as I this day: the father to the children shall make known thy truth.
O veloñeo, o veloñeo, ie ro mandrenge Azoo, manahake ty anoeko henaneo; ampandrendrehen-drae amo keleia’eo ty figahiña’o.
20 Jehovah was [purposed] to save me. — And we will play upon my stringed instruments all the days of our life, in the house of Jehovah.
Handrombak’ ahy t’Iehovà; le hititiha’ay ami’ty marovany añ’anjomba’ Iehovà ao o sabokoo, amo hene andro hiveloma’aio.
21 Now Isaiah had said, Let them take a cake of figs, and lay it for a plaster upon the boil, and he shall recover.
Fa hoe ty natao’ Iesaià: Ampangalao garaton-tsakoa hapakotse amy honay himeara’e.
22 And Hezekiah had said, What is the sign that I shall go up into the house of Jehovah?
Nanao ty hoe ka t’Iekizkia: Ino ty viloñe hampionjoñ’ ahy mb’ añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà mb’eo?
