Isaiah 8
1 Moreover, the Lord sayd vnto me, Take thee a great roll, and write in it with a mans penne, Make speede to the spoyle: haste to the praye.
Le hoe t’Iehovà amako: Mandrambesa takelake bey vaho sokiro an-tsokitse lahi’e ty hoe: Malisa ty fikopake, masika ty tsindroke,
2 Then I tooke vnto me faithfull witnesses to recorde, Vriah the Priest, and Zechariah the sonne of Ieberechiah.
le ho rambeseko ho amako ty valolombelo matoe hamolily, i Orià mpisoroñe naho i Zekarià ana’ Ieberekiaho.
3 After, I came vnto the Prophetesse, which conceiued, and bare a sonne. Then sayd the Lord to me, Call his name, Mahershalalhash-baz.
Aa le nimb’amy rakemba mpitokiy iraho; niaren-dre vaho nisamak’ ana-dahy. Le hoe t’Iehovà amako, Itokavo ty hoe Maher-salal-kas-baze,
4 For before the childe shall haue knowledge to crye, My father, and my mother, he shall take away the riches of Damascus and the spoyle of Samaria, before the King of Asshur.
amy te aolo’ ty aharendreha’ i ajajay ty hikoike ty hoe ‘Raeko’ naho ‘Reneko,’ le fa nasese’ i mpanjaka’ i Asorey añe ty vara’ i Damesèke naho ty fikopahañe i Somerone.
5 And the Lord spake yet againe vnto me, saying,
Nitsara amako indraike t’Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
6 Because this people hath refused the waters of Shiloah that runne softly, and reioyce with Rezin, and the sonne of Remaliah,
Kanao nitsambolitio’ondaty retiañe ty rano’ i Siloake mitsiritsioke moray, vaho mirebeke amy Retsine naho ty ana’ i Remaliaho;
7 Nowe therefore, beholde, the Lord bringeth vp vpon them the waters of the Riuer mightie and great, euen the King of Asshur with all his glory, and he shall come vp vpon all their riuers, and goe ouer all their banks,
Inao arè te hampandipore’ i Talè am’iareo ty rano’ i Saka maozatse naho beiy: i mpanjaka’ i Asorey amy ze hene enge’e; hanginahina amo talaha’e iabio, hitoabotse ambone’ ze hene fitroara’e;
8 And shall breake into Iudah, and shall ouerflowe and passe through, and shall come vp to the necke, and the stretching out of his wings shall fill the breadth of thy land, O Immanu-el.
Hifaoke mb’e Iehodà re, handopatse vaho hiranga mb’eo, Eka ho takare’e ty fititia; hibànatse hañatseke i tane’oy ami’ty fivela’ o ela’eo, ry Imanoele.
9 Gather together on heapes, O ye people, and ye shalbe broken in pieces, and hearken all ye of farre countreys: gird your selues, and you shalbe broken in pieces: gird your selues, and you shalbe broken in pieces.
Mijeñajeñafa ry ondaty; Midemoha! Manolora ravembia, ry an-tsietoitane añe; miteveha sadia f’ie ho demoheñe; misadia fe ho demoheñe;
10 Take counsell together, yet it shall be brought to nought: pronounce a decree, yet shall it not stand: for God is with vs.
Misafiria safiry, fe tsy hanjofake; mañotsohotso firefeañe, f’ie tsy hijadoñe fa ama’ay t’i Andrianañahare.
11 For the Lord spake thus to me in taking of mine hand, and taught me, that I should not walke in the way of this people, saying,
Nametse amako t’Iehovà am-pità’e maozatse, nañeretse ahy tsy hanjotike ami’ ty lala’ ondaty retiañe, ami’ty hoe:
12 Say ye not, A confederacie to all them, to whome this people sayth a confederacie, neither feare you their feare, nor be afrayd of them.
Ko ano ty hoe: ‘Kilily,’ o raha iaby atao’ ondaty retiañe ho fikililiañeo; ko hembañe’o ty fihembaña’ iareo, le ko ihebakebaha’o.
13 Sanctifie the Lord of hostes, and let him be your feare, and let him be your dread,
Hamasiño t’Iehovà’ i Màroy, ie ty ihembaña’ areo, ie ty añeveña’ areo.
14 And he shalbe as a Sanctuarie: but as a stumbling stone, and as a rocke to fall vpon, to both the houses of Israel, and as a snare and as a net to the inhabitants of Ierusalem.
Ho fitsolohañe re, fe ho vato fikotroforañe naho lamilamy fitsikapiañe amy anjomba roe’ Israele rey; ho fandrike naho koboñe amo mpimoneñe e Ierosalaimeo.
15 And many among them shall stumble, and shall fall and shalbe broken and shalbe snared and shalbe taken.
Hitotohitse ty maro, hikorovoke ho sèrañe, ho fandriheñe vaho ho tsepake.
16 Binde vp the testimonie: seale vp the Law among my disciples.
Vahoro i fañinay, liteo ho a o mpiamakoo ty fañòha’e.
17 Therefore I will waite vpon the Lord that hath hid his face from the house of Iaakob, and I wil looke for him.
Le handiñe Iehovà iraho, I mañeta-daharañe amy anjomba’ Iakobey: Ama’e ao ty fitamàko.
18 Beholde, I and the children whome the Lord hath giuen me, are as signes and as wonders in Israel, by the Lord of hostes, which dwelleth in mount Zion.
Intoy iraho naho o anake natolo’ Iehovà ahikoo! Viloñe naho halatsañe e Israele atoy boak’ am’ Iehovà’ i Màroy, I mimoneñe am-Bohi-Tsioney.
19 And when they shall say vnto you, Enquire at them that haue a spirit of diuination, and at the soothsayers, which whisper and murmure, Should not a people enquire at their God? from the liuing to the dead?
Ie sigihe’iereo ami’ty hoe: Ipaiao amo jinio naho amo doany miñeoñeoñe naho mitreontreoñeo; Aa tsy ho paiae’ ondatio hao t’i Andrianañahare’e? Hantsaka fañahin-dolo hao o veloñeo?
20 To the Law, and to the testimonie, if they speake not according to this worde: it is because there is no light in them.
Mb’an-Kàke naho i fañinay! Naho tsy milahatse ami’ty tsara toy ty enta’ iareo, le tsy nanjirihan’ andro.
21 Then he that is afflicted and famished, shall go to and from in it: and when he shalbe hungry, he shall euen freat himselfe, and curse his King and his gods, and shall looke vpward.
Hiranga aze iereo, am-poheke naho hasalikoañe, aa ie milingoa, le ho boseke vaho hamatse i mpanjaka’ iareoy naho ty’ndrahare’ iareo. Aa ke hiandrandra iereo,
22 And when he shall looke to the earth, beholde trouble, and darkenes, vexation and anguish, and he is driuen to darkenes.
hera hitolike an-tane, le haronje am-paloviloviañe naho am-pigodoñañe, an-kamoromoroñañe naho an-kaferenaiñañe vaho añ’ ieñe ao.
