< Isaiah 58 >
1 Cry, cease not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and shew my people their wicked doings, and the house of Jacob their sins.
Mikoiha, ko mifoneñe, mipoñafa-feo hoe antsiva, vaho taroño am’ondatikoo ty fiolà’ iareo, naho am’ Iakobe o tahi’eo.
2 For they seek me from day to day, sad desire to know my ways, as a nation that hath done justice, and hath not forsaken the judgment of their God: they ask of me the judgments of justice: they are willing to approach to God.
Boak’andro iereo manao te mipay ahy, le mintse mifale handrendreke o satakoo, manahake t’ie fifeheañe mpanao havantañañe, hoe mbe lia’e tsy naforintse’e o fañèn’ Añahare’eo, vaho mipay zaka to amako, inao mahafale iareo ty mañarine aman’Añahare.
3 Why have we fasted, and thou hast not regarded: have we humbled our souls, and thou hast not taken notice? Behold in the day of your fast your own will is found, and you exact of all your debtors.
Ino ty nililira’ay, ihe tsy mahavazoho anay? Akore te nijoie’ay o tro’aio fe tsy nihaoñe’o? Inao! amy androm-pililira’ areoy ro mbore mitolon-draha, naho mampifanehake mpitoroñe.
4 Behold you fast for debates and strife. and strike with the fist wickedly. Do not fast as you have done until this day, to make your cry to be heard on high.
Isao te fañòlañe naho fifandierañe avao ty fililira’ areo, hanjevoña’ areo an-komondron-kalo-tserehañe. Tsy ho janjiñeñe an-dindimoneñe ey i fililira’ areo anindroaniy.
5 Is this such a fast as I have chosen: for a man to afflict his soul for a day? is this it, to wind his head about like a circle, and to spread sackcloth and ashes? wilt thou call this a fast, and a day acceptable to the Lord?
Zao hao o fililirañe jinoboko ho androm-pilieram-batañeo? T’ie ho fihohòfañe hoe bararata hao, naho ho fandafihañe gony naho lavenoke ambane eo? Izay hao ty atao’ areo ho lilitse, ho andro no’ Iehovà?
6 Is not this rather the fast that I have chosen? loose the bands of wickedness, undo the bundles that oppress, let them that are broken go free, and break asunder every burden.
Tsy itoy hao o fililirañe joboñekoo? ty fañahàñe o silisilin-kalo-tserehañeo naho ty hampibalahañe o tali-randran-jokao, ty hamotsorañe o forekekèñeo naho ty hampipozahañe ze hene ana-joka?
7 Deal thy bread to the hungry, and bring the needy and the harbourless into thy house: when thou shalt see one naked, cover him, and despise not thy own flesh.
Tsy ty handivàñe ty mahakama’o amo salikoeñeo hao, naho ty hampihovàñe añ’anjomba’o ao i mavomavo natao’o soike rezay, naho ty hanikinañe ty miboridañe te oni’o, vaho tsy iambohoa’o ty nofots’aman-dio’o?
8 Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thy health shall speedily arise, and thy justice shall go before thy face, and the glory of the Lord shall gather thee up.
Ie amy zao hipelatse ty hazavà’o manahake te manjirik’ andro, le halisa ty fijangaña’o, hiaolo azo ty havañona’o, vaho hanehak’ azo ty enge’ Iehovà.
9 Then shalt thou call, and the Lord shall hear: thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am. If thou wilt take away the chain out of the midst of thee, and cease to stretch out the finger, and to speak that which profiteth not.
Hikanjy irehe henane zay, le hanoiñe azo t’Iehovà; hikaik’olotse le hanoe’e ty hoe: Intoy iraho. Naho asita’o añivo’o ao i jokay, i tondro-soñiy naho o tambaitambaiñeo,
10 When thou shalt pour out thy soul to the hungry, and shalt satisfy the afflicted soul then shall thy light rise up in darkness, and thy darkness shall be as the noonday.
Le ie ferenaiña’o o salikoo naho eneñe’o o foreforèñeo, le hanjirike añ’ieñe ao ty hazavà’o vaho hivalike ho tsipinde-mena ty fimoromoroña’o.
11 And the Lord will give thee rest continually, and will fill thy soul with brightness, and deliver thy bones, and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a fountain of water whose waters shall not fail.
Hiaolo azo nainai’e t’Iehovà, le ho eneñe’e ty fiai’o an-tsan-kerè, vaho hampaozare’e o taola’oo. Ho goloboñe soa-tondrake irehe, naho torahañe tsy mai-drano.
12 And the places that have been desolate for ages shall be built in thee: thou shalt raise up the foundations of generation and generation: and thou shalt be called the repairer of the fences, turning the paths into rest.
Hamboare’ o boak’ama’oo o tanàn-taoloo le hatroa’o o fahan-tariratse maroo, vaho hatao mpamboatse jebañe irehe, mpanomonty o lalam-pimoneñañeo.
13 If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, from doing thy own will in my holy day, and call the sabbath delightful, and the holy of the Lord glorious, and glorify him, while thou dost not thy own ways, and thy own will is not found: to speak a word:
Aa naho avì’o amy Sabatay ty fandia’o tsy hañeañe o tolon-draha’oo amy androko masiñey; naho tokave’o ty hoe ‘mahafale’ o Sabotseo, ty andro masi’ Iehovà, naho amañ’engeñe, le iasia’o, tsy hañorike o lala’oo, naho tsy hipay ty mahafale azo, vaho tsy hisaontsy o enta’oo;
14 Then shalt thou be delighted in the Lord, and I will lift thee up above the high places of the earth, and will feed thee with the inheritance of Jacob thy father. For the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it.
Ie hifale am’ Iehovà, le hampiningirako azo o haboa’ ty tane toio, vaho ho fahanako ami’ty lova’ Iakobe rae’o; izay ty nitsaraem-palie’ Iehovà.
