< Isaiah 7 >

1 And it came to pass in the days of Ahaz, the son of Jotham, the son of Uzziah, king of Judah, [that] Rezin the king of Syria, and Pekah the son of Remaliah, king of Israel, came up to Jerusalem to make war against it, but they were not able to fight against it.
Tondroke tañandro’ i Akhaze ana’ i Otame, ana’ i Ozià, mpanjaka’ Iehodà, te nionjoñe haname Ierosalaime t’i Retsine mpanjaka’ i Arame naho i Pèkae ana’ i Remaliàho, mpanjaka’ Israele, f’ie tsy naharotsake aze.
2 And it was told the house of David saying, Syria is allied with Ephraim. Then his heart and the heart of his people shook, as the trees of the forest are shaken with the wind.
Natalily amy anjomba’ i Davidey ty hoe: Nitraok’ amy Efraime t’i ­Arame. Le ninevenevetse ty arofo’e naho ty arofo’ ondati’eo, manahake ty fañezeñezeñan-tioke o hatae añ’alao.
3 And Jehovah said to Isaiah, Go out now to meet Ahaz, thou and thy son Shear-jashub, at the end of the aqueduct of the upper pool, on the highway of the fuller's field;
Aa le hoe t’Iehovà am’Iesaià, Akia henaneo, mifanalakà amy Akhaze, ihe naho i Sear’iasobe ana’o, am-pigadoña’ ty talaha’ i antara amboney, an-damo’ i tondam-panasay eo;
4 and thou shalt say unto him, Take heed and be quiet; fear not, and let not thy heart faint before these two ends of smoking firebrands, because of the fierce anger of Rezin and Syria, and of the son of Remaliah.
le isaontsio ty hoe: Mitaoa, mianjiña, ko hembañe, ko mangonotse ty amy foroha mahatoeñe roe rey, ami’ty fidabadoà’ i Retsine rekets’ i Arame, naho ty ana’ i Remaliaho.
5 Inasmuch as Syria hath taken evil counsel against thee, Ephraim [also] and the son of Remaliah, saying,
Amy fikiniàn-draty nanoe’ i Arame naho i Efraime vaho ty ana’ i Remaliaho ama’oy, ami’ty hoe:
6 Let us go up against Judah, and harass it, and make a breach therein for us, and set up a king therein — the son of Tabeal;
Antao hionjoñe haname Iehodà, hampalovilovy aze, hamakian-tika jeba vaho hatroan-tika ty ana’ i Tabeale ho mpanjaka añivo’e ao.
7 thus saith the Lord Jehovah: It shall not stand, nor come to pass;
Hoe t’Iehovà Talè: Tsy hitroatse re, vaho tsy ho tondroke izay.
8 for the head of Syria is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin; and within sixty-five years shall Ephraim be broken, so as to be no [more a] people;
I Damesèke ty loha’ i Arame, I Retsine ty loha’ i Damesèke; (le añate ty taoñe enem-polo lim’ amby ty hikorovoha’ i Efraime tsy ho ondaty ka; )
9 and the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remaliah's son. If ye believe not, surely ye shall not be established.
Fehe’ i Someròne t’i Efraime, le fehè’ ty ana’ i Remaliaho ty Someròne. Aa naho tsy gañe ty fatokisa’areo, le toe tsy hioreñe.
10 And Jehovah spoke again to Ahaz, saying,
Aa le nitsara amy Akhaze indraike t’Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
11 Ask for thee a sign from Jehovah thy God; ask for it in the deep, or in the height above. (Sheol h7585)
Mihalalia viloñe am’Iehovà Andrianañahare’o; ke ami’ty halale’ i tsikeokeokey, he ami’ty haabo i likerañey. (Sheol h7585)
12 And Ahaz said, I will not ask, and will not tempt Jehovah.
Aa hoe t’i Akhaze: Izaho tsy hihalaly, tsy hitsoke ­Iehovà.
13 And he said, Hear then, house of David: Is it a small matter for you to weary men, that ye weary also my God?
Aa le hoe re: Janjiño arè ry anjomba’ i Davide: Loho kede ama’areo hao ty hanosotse ondaty, kanao tsohe’ areo ka ty fahaliñisan’ Añahareko?
14 Therefore will the Lord himself give you a sign: Behold, the virgin shall conceive and shall bring forth a son, and call his name Immanuel.
I Talè arè ro hanolo-biloñe anahareo: Heheke! hiareñe i somondraray, naho hitoly ana-dahy, vaho hatao’e Imanoele ty añara’e.
15 Butter and honey shall he eat, that he may know to refuse the evil, and to choose the good.
Habobo naho tantele ty ho hane’e ampara’ te fohi’e ty mikiho ty raty, vaho hijoboñe ty soa.
16 For before the child knoweth to refuse the evil and to choose the good, the land whose two kings thou fearest shall be forsaken.
Aolo’ ty haharendreha’ i ajajay ty hitribahatse ty raty, hijoboña’e ty soa, le ho farieñe ty tane’ i mpanjaka roe irevendreveña’o rey.
17 Jehovah will bring upon thee, and upon thy people, and upon thy father's house, days which have not come since the day when Ephraim turned away from Judah — [even] the king of Assyria.
Hasese’ Iehovà ama’o naho am’ondati’oo naho aman’ anjomban-droae’o ty mpanjaka’ i Asore, ami’ty andro mbe lia’e tsy nifetsake sikal’ami’ty nienga’ i Efraime t’Iehodà.
18 And it shall come to pass in that day, that Jehovah will hiss for the fly which is at the extremity of the streams of Egypt, and for the bee which is in the land of Assyria;
Ho tendreke amy andro zay te ho tiofe’ Iehovà i laletse añ’olo’ i saka’ i Mitsraimey naho i rene-tantele an-tane’ i Asorey.
19 and they shall come and settle all of them in the desolate valleys, and in the holes of the rocks, and on all thorn-bushes, and on all the pastures.
Homb’eo iereo hipetake amo goledoñe bangiñeo naho an-tsifi’ o vatoo naho amy ze atao fatike vaho amo tane fiandrazañe iabio.
20 In that day will the Lord, with a razor which is hired beyond the river, with the king of Assyria, shave the head and the hair of the feet, yea, the beard also will it take away.
Amy andro zay, le ho hitsifa’ i Talè ami’ty fiharatse nikaramae’e boak’ alafe’ i Sakay añe, (i mpanjaka’ i Asorey ‘nio), ty maroin’añambone naho ty volon-tomboke, vaho hafaha’e ka ty tanteahetse.
21 And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] a man shall nourish a young cow and two sheep,
Ho tondroke amy andro zay te hihare kiloa raike naho añondry roe t’indaty;
22 and it shall come to pass, from the abundance of milk they shall give, [that] he shall eat butter; for every one that remaineth in the midst of the land shall eat butter and honey.
Eka, ho tendreke te, ami’ty hamaro ronono homei’e le hikama deron-kabobo re; toe hikama habobo naho tantele ze hene sehanga’e amy taney.
23 And it shall come to pass in that day, [that] every place, where there were a thousand vines at a thousand silver pieces, shall become briars and thorns:
Ho tondroke amy andro zay te ze toetse amam-bahem-baloboke arivo, mañeva volafoty arivo, ty ho hisatse naho fatike avao.
24 with arrows and with the bow shall they come thither, for the whole land shall become briars and thorns.
Hinday fale rekets’ ana-pale ze homb’eo, amy te ho ropiteke naho fatike avao i taney.
25 And all mountains that have been dug up with the hoe — thither will they not come, from fear of briars and thorns; and they shall be for the sending forth of oxen, and for the treading of small cattle.
Ze hene tamboho nitrabahe’ ty fangaly taolo le tsy homba’o ami’ty fatahora’o fatike naho ahe-draty, le ho fiandrazan’ añombe naho fandialiàn’ añondry ty ao.
