Isaiah 29
1 Ah altar, altar of the citie that Dauid dwelt in: adde yere vnto yere: let them kill lambs.
Lozan’ i Ariela’, lozan’ i Ariela, Tanàna nitoeran i Davida! Ampio taona ny taona, aoka ho tafatsingeringerina ny andro firavoravoana;
2 But I wil bring the altar into distresse, and there shalbe heauines and sorowe, and it shall be vnto me like an altar.
Dia hampahory an’ i Ariela Aho, ka hisy fisentoana sy fitarainana ao aminy; Ary ho tonga Ariela tokoa amiko izy.
3 And I wil besiege thee as a circle, and fight against thee on a mount, and will cast vp ramparts against thee.
Ary hanao fahiranao anao Aho, ka hasiako miaramila hanemitra anao, ary hananganako manda hamelezana anao.
4 So shalt thou be humbled, and shalt speake out of the ground, and thy speach shalbe as out of the dust: thy voyce also shall be out of the ground like him that hath a spirite of diuination, and thy talking shall whisper out of the dust.
Dia haetry ianao ka hiteny ao amin’ ny tany, ary ao amin’ ny vovoka no hibitsibitsihanao, eny, ny feonao hivoaka avy amin’ ny tany tahaka ny an’ ny manao azy ho tsindrian-javatra, ary avy ao amin’ ny vovoka no ikiakiahan’ ny teninao.
5 Moreouer, the multitude of thy strangers shalbe like small dust, and the multitude of strong men shalbe as chaffe that passeth away, and it shall be in a moment, euen suddenly.
Kanefa ny fahavalonao betsaka ho tonga tahaka ny vovoka madinika, ary ny olon-dozabe maro ho tahaka ny akofa indaosina; Eny, ho avy tampoka dia tampoka izany.
6 Thou shalt be visited of the Lord of hostes with thunder, and shaking, and a great noyse, a whirlewinde, and a tempest, and a flame of a deuouring fire.
Avy amin’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, no hihavian’ ny famaliana, dia kotrokorana sy horohoron-tany ary rohondrohona mafy, tadio sy tafio-drivotra ary lelafo mandevona.
7 And the multitude of all the nations that fight against the altar, shalbe as a dreame or vision by night: euen all they that make the warre against it, and strong holdes against it, and lay siege vnto it.
Ary ho tahaka ny fahitana eo amin’ ny nofy amin’ ny alina Ireo firenena betsaka rehetra ireo, izay mivory hamely an’ i Ariela, dia izay rehetra mivory hamely azy sy ny mandany ka hampahatahotra azy.
8 And it shalbe like as an hungry man dreameth, and beholde, he eateth: and when he awaketh, his soule is emptie: or like as a thirsty man dreameth, and loe, he is drinking, and when he awaketh, beholde, he is faint, and his soule longeth: so shall the multitude of all nations be that fight against mount Zion.
Ary ho tahaka ny olona noana manonofy, fa, indro, mihinana izy; kanjo nony mahatsiaro, dia noana ihany izy; Na ho tahaka ny olona mangetaheta manonofy, fa, indro, misotro izy; kanjo nony mahatsiaro, indro, ana ihany izy, ary ny fanahiny mbola maniry ihany: Dia ho tahaka izany ireo firenena betsaka rehetra ireo Izay mivory hamely ny tendrombohitra Ziona.
9 Stay your selues, and wonder: they are blinde, and make you blinde: they are drunken but not with wine: they stagger, but not by strong drinke.
Mijanona ianareo, ka mitalanjona, Tampeno ny masonareo, koa aoka ho jamba ianareo! Mamo ireo, nefa tsy tamin’ ny divay; Mivembena izy, nefa tsy tamin’ ny toaka.
10 For the Lord hath couered you with a spirite of slumber, and hath shut vp your eyes: the Prophets, and your chiefe Seers hath he couered.
Fa Jehovah efa nampidina fanahy mahasondrian-tory ao aminareo, ary efa nakimpiny ny masonareo (dia ny mpaminany izany), ary efa nosaronany ny lohanareo (dia ny mpahita izany).
11 And the vision of them all is become vnto you, as the wordes of a booke that is sealed vp, which they deliuer to one that can reade, saying, Reade this, I pray thee. Then shall he say, I can not: for it is sealed.
Ary ny fahitana ny amin’ izany rehetra izany raha aminareo dia tahaka ny teny amin’ ny taratasy voaisy tombo-kase, izay atolotra olona mahavaky teny ka atao hoe: Masìna ianao, vakio ity; Fa hoy izy: Tsy azoko vakina, fa efa voaisy tombo-kase izy;
12 And the booke is giuen vnto him that can not reade, saying, Reade this, I pray thee. And he shall say, I can not reade.
Fa raha atolotra izay tsy mahavaky teny kosa izany ka atao hoe: Masìna ianao, vakio ity, dia hoy izy: Tsy mahavaky teny aho.
13 Therefore the Lord sayd, Because this people come neere vnto me with their mouth, and honour me with their lips, but haue remooued their heart farre from me, and their feare toward me was taught by the precept of men,
Ary hoy ny Tompo: Satria manatona Ahy amin’ ny vavany ity firenena ity ary mankalaza Ahy amin’ ny molony, nefa ampanalaviriny Ahy kosa ny fony, ka ny fahatahorany Ahy dia didin’ olombelona ampianarina azy ihany,
14 Therefore behold, I wil againe doe a marueilous worke in this people, euen a marueilous worke, and a wonder: for the wisdome of their wise men shall perish, and the vnderstanding of their prudent men shalbe hid.
Dia, indro koa, mbola hanao zava-mahagaga amin’ ity firenena ity Aho, dia zava-mahagaga sy mahatalanjona; Ka ho foana ny fahendrena kendriny, ary tsy ho hita ny fahalalan’ ny mazava sainany.
15 Wo vnto them that seeke deepe to hide their counsell from the Lord: for their workes are in darkenes, and they say, Who seeth vs? and who knoweth vs?
Lozan’ izay manafina lalina ny saina ataony mba tsy ho hitan’ i Jehovah, sady ao amin’ ny maizina ny asany, ka dia hoy izy: Iza no mahita antsika, ary iza no mahalala antsika?
16 Your turning of deuises shall it not be esteemed as the potters clay? for shall the worke say of him that made it, Hee made me not? or the thing formed, say of him that facioned it, He had none vnderstanding?
Endrey izato fahadalanareo! Moa ny mpanefy tanimanga va no hoheverina ho tahaka ny tanimanga, ka ny natao va hilaza izay nanao azy hoe: Tsy nanao ahy izy? Na ny zavatra voaforona va hilaza izay namorona azy hoe: Tsy manam-pahalalana izy?
17 Is it not yet but a litle while, and Lebanon shall be turned into Carmel? and Carmel shall be counted as a forest?
Tsy vetivety foana va dia hovana ho saha mahavokatra Libanona, Ary ny saha mahavokatra hoheverina ho ala?
18 And in that day shall the deafe heare the wordes of the booke, and the eyes of the blinde shall see out of obscuritie, and out of darkenesse.
Amin’ izany andro izany dia ho ren’ ny marenina ny tenin’ ny taratasy, ary na dia ao amin’ ny aizina sy ny aizim-pito aza dia hahita ihany ny mason’ ny jamba.
19 The meeke in the Lord shall receiue ioye againe, and the poore men shall reioyce in the holy one of Israel.
Ny mpandefitra hitombo hafaliana amin’ i Jehovah; Ary ny malahelo ao amin’ ny olona hifaly amin’ ny Iray Masin’ ny Isiraely,
20 For the cruel man shall cease, and the scornefull shalbe consumed: and all that hasted to iniquitie, shalbe cut off:
Fa lasa ny olon-dozabe, tsy ao intsony ny mpaniratsira; Ary fongotra izay rehetra miari-torin-tsaina amin’ ny ratsy,
21 Which made a man to sinne in ye worde, and tooke him in a snare: which reproued them in the gate, and made the iust to fall without cause.
Dia ireo manameloka olona amin’ ny teny ary mamandrika izay mananatra eo am-bavahady sy mamadika ny marina amin’ ny lainga foana.
22 Therefore thus sayth the Lord vnto the house of Iaakob, euen hee that redeemed Abraham, Iaakob shall not now be confounded, neither now shall his face be pale.
Koa ny amin’ ny taranak’ i Jakoba dia izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Izay nanavotra an’ i Abrahama: Tsy ho menatra intsony Jakoba, ary tsy hivaloarika intsony ny tavany.
23 But when he seeth his children, the worke of mine hands, in the mids of him, they shall sanctifie my Name, and sanctifie the holy one of Iaakob, and shall feare the God of Israel.
Fa raha ny zanany mahita ny asan’ ny tanako ao aminy, Dia hanamasina ny anarako izy, eny, hanamasina ny Iray Masin’ i Jakoba izy ary hangovitra eo anatrehan’ Andriamanitry ny Isiraely.
24 Then they that erred in spirit, shall haue vnderstanding, and they that murmured, shall learne doctrine.
Ary izay mivily fanahy dia mbola hahazo fahalalana; Ary izay mimonomonona dia mbola hianatra fahendrena.
