< Habakkuk 2 >
1 I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will look out to see what He will speak by me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved.
Hitsangana eo ambonin’ ny fitazanako aho Ary hijoro eo ambonin’ ny manda, Hiandry hahitako izay holazainy amiko Sy izay havaliko amin’ ny fitarainako.
2 And the LORD answered me, and said: 'Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that a man may read it swiftly.
Dia namaly ahy Jehovah ka nanao hoe: Soraty ny fahitana, ka ataovy velona tsara ny soratra eo amin’ ny fàfana, Mba ho azon’ ny mihazakazaka hovakina aza.
3 For the vision is yet for the appointed time, and it declareth of the end, and doth not lie; though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not delay.'
Fa ny fahitana dia mbola ho amin’ ny fotoan’ andro, Ary mikendry ny farany izy ka tsy ho diso; Eny, na dia mitaredretra aza izy, andraso ihany, Fa ho avy tokoa izy ka tsy hijanona.
4 Behold, his soul is puffed up, it is not upright in him; but the righteous shall live by his faith.
Indro, feno avonavona ny fanahin’ ireny, fa tsy mahitsy ao anatiny, Fa ny marina ho velon’ ny finoany.
5 Yea, moreover, wine is a treacherous dealer; the haughty man abideth not; he who enlargeth his desire as the nether-world, and is as death, and cannot be satisfied, but gathereth unto him all nations, and heapeth unto him all peoples. (Sheol )
Ary koa, mamitaka ny divay; Ny olona miavonavona tsy mba mahatoetra, Dia ilay mitanatana vava tahaka ny fiainan-tsi-hita, Eny, toy ny fahafatesana, ka tsy mety voky, Fa manangona ny firenena rehetra ho ao aminy Sy mamory ny olona rehetra ho ao aminy. (Sheol )
6 Shall not all these take up a parable against him, and a taunting riddle against him, and say: 'Woe to him that increaseth that which is not his! how long? and that ladeth himself with many pledges!'
Tsy hanao oha-teny hamelezana azy va ireto rehetra ireto? Tsy hanao eson-teny sy fitenenana hanoherana azy va izy ka hanao hoe: Lozan’ izay mahery mandroaka ny tsy azy! Mandra-pahoviana! dia ilay mivesatra ny zavatra nalaina ho tsatòka
7 Shall they not rise up suddenly that shall exact interest of thee, and awake that shall violently shake thee, and thou shalt be for booties unto them?
Tsy hitsangana tampoka va izay hanaikitra anao, Ary tsy hifoha va izay hanaitaitra anao, Ka ho babony ianao?
8 Because thou hast spoiled many nations, all the remnant of the peoples shall spoil thee; because of men's blood, and for the violence done to the land, to the city and to all that dwell therein.
Fa efa namabo firenena maro ianao, Ka dia mba hobaboin’ ny sisa rehetra amin’ ny firenena kosa, Noho ny ran’ ny olona sy ny fandozana natao tamin’ ny tany, Dia tamin’ ny tanàna sy ny mponina rehetra ao aminy.
9 Woe to him that gaineth evil gains for his house, that he may set his nest on high, that he may be delivered from the power of evil!
Lozan’ izay fatra-pila harena amin’ ny tsy marina ho an’ ny taranany, Hanaovany ny akaniny any amin’ ny avo, Mba tsy ho tratry ny tanan’ ny loza
10 Thou hast devised shame to thy house, by cutting off many peoples, and hast forfeited thy life.
Efa namoron-tsaina izay hahatonga henatra ho an’ ny taranakao ianao, Dia ny handringanana firenena maro; Ary nankahà-doza hihatra amin’ ny ainao ianao.
11 For the stone shall cry out of the wall, and the beam out of the timber shall answer it.
Fa hitaraina ny vato ao amin’ ny rindrina, Ary ny sakamandimby ao amin’ ny trano no hamaly azy.
12 Woe to him that buildeth a town with blood, and establisheth a city by iniquity!
Lozan’ izay manao vohitra amin’ ny fandatsahan-drà Sy manorina tanàna amin’ ny heloka!
13 Behold, is it not of the LORD of hosts that the peoples labour for the fire, and the nations weary themselves for vanity?
Indro, tsy avy amin’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, va no hiasan’ ny olona ho an’ ny afo, Sy hisasaran’ ny firenena noho ny zava-poana?
14 For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.
Fa ny tany ho feno ny fahalalana ny voninahitr’ i Jehovah, Toy ny fanaron’ ny rano ny fanambanin’ ny ranomasina.
15 Woe unto him that giveth his neighbour drink, that puttest thy venom thereto, and makest him drunken also, that thou mayest look on their nakedness!
Lozan’ izay mampisotro divay ny namany Dia ianao izay manampy fahatezerana ka mampahamano azy, Mba hijery ny fitanjahany;
16 Thou art filled with shame instead of glory, drink thou also, and be uncovered; the cup of the LORD'S right hand shall be turned unto thee, and filthiness shall be upon thy glory.
Efa feno henatra ianao, fa tsy voninahitra; Mba sotroy koa, ka mitanjaha; Hatolotra anao ny kapoaka eny an-tanana ankavanan’ i Jehovah, Ary fahamenarana no ho amin’ ny voninahitrao.
17 For the violence done to Lebanon shall cover thee, and the destruction of the beasts, which made them afraid; because of men's blood, and for the violence done to the land, to the city and to all that dwell therein.
Fa hanody anao ny loza natao tamin’ i Libanona Sy ny fandringanana mahatahotra namelezana ny biby, Noho ny ran’ ny olona sy ny loza natao tamin’ ny tany, Dia tamin’ ny tanàna sy ny mponina rehetra ao aminy.
18 What profiteth the graven image, that the maker thereof hath graven it, even the molten image, and the teacher of lies; that the maker of his work trusteth therein, to make dumb idols?
Mahasoa inona ny sarin-javatra voasokitra, No misokitra azy ny mpanao azy? Na ny sarin-javatra an-idina sy ny mpampianatra lainga, No matoky azy izay namorona azy Tamin’ ny nanaovany sampy moana?
19 Woe unto him that saith to the wood: 'Awake', to the dumb stone: 'Arise!' Can this teach? Behold, it is overlaid with gold and silver, and there is no breath at all in the midst of it.
Lozan’ izay manao amin’ ny hazo hoe: Mifohaza! Ary amin’ ny vato moana hoe: Mitsangàna! Hampianatra va ireo? He! voapetaka takela-bolamena sy volafotsy ihany izy, Nefa tsy misy fanahy akory ao anatiny.
20 But the LORD is in His holy temple; let all the earth keep silence before Him.
Jehovah dia ao amin’ ny tempoliny masìna; Mangìna eo anatrehany, ry tany rehetra!
