< Isaiah 32 >

1 Behold, a king shall reign in righteousness, and as for princes, they shall rule in justice.
Oniño te hifelek’ an-kavañonañe ty mpanjaka, vaho hifehe an-katò o roandriañeo.
2 And a man shall be as in a hiding-place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest; as by the watercourses in a dry place, as in the shadow of a great rock in a weary land.
Le hanahake ty fipalirañe ami’ty tioke t’indaty, naho hoe fitampiñañe ami’ty lihits’ orañe, hoe rano mitsiritsioke an-tane kànkañe, hambañe ami’ty tevam-bato ialofañe an-tane kirikintañe ao.
3 And the eyes of them that see shall not be closed, and the ears of them that hear shall attend.
Le tsy hakipe ty fihaino’ o mahaisakeo; vaho hitsendreñe ty ravembia mahajanjiñe.
4 The heart also of the rash shall understand knowledge, and the tongue of the stammerers shall be ready to speak plainly.
Haharendre-kilala ty fivetsevetse bei-àreke, hiaren-tsaontsy ty famele’ o mènekeo.
5 The vile person shall be no more called liberal, nor the churl said to be noble.
Tsy hatao vañoñe ka ty dagola, le tsy hatao matarike ty tsivokatse;
6 For the vile person will speak villainy, and his heart will work iniquity, to practise ungodliness, and to utter wickedness against the LORD, to make empty the soul of the hungry, and to cause the drink of the thirsty to fail.
Amy te mivolam-­borosode ty gege, mikitro-draha raty ty tro’e, hitoloñe tsy aman-Kake, hivolañ’ ota am’ Iehovà, kefohe’e ty tro’ i saliko, vaho kapaihe’e ty fitovi’ i taliñiereñey.
7 The instruments also of the churl are evil; he deviseth wicked devices to destroy the poor with lying words, and the needy when he speaketh right.
Tsy vente’e ty harao’ o tsivokatseo; kiniae’e loza an-tambaimbaiñe o rarakeo, ndra te mivolan-to i misotriy.
8 But the liberal deviseth liberal things; and by liberal things shall he stand.
Misafiry fatarihañe ty matarike, naho i fatariha’e ty ijadoña’e.
9 Rise up, ye women that are at ease, and hear my voice; ye confident daughters, give ear unto my speech.
Miongaha ry rakemba miagarègañeo, janjiño o feokoo; ry anak’ampela mitabonìtseo anoloro sofiñe o lañonakoo.
10 After a year and days shall ye be troubled, ye confident women; for the vintage shall fail, the ingathering shall not come.
Ho ampoheke nahareo te peake ty taoñe tovoñañ’ andro ry tsidaredareo; fa tsy hamokatse o vaheo, tsy ho toly i fanontonañey.
11 Tremble, ye women that are at ease; be troubled, ye confident ones; strip you, and make you bare, and gird sackcloth upon your loins,
Mititititiha, ry miaiñañoleñañeo, mimahimahiña ry miandrañandrañeo; maña­metsametsà, miboridaña, misikina gony an-tohake
12 Smiting upon the breasts for the pleasant fields, for the fruitful vine;
Mikabokaboha araña ty amo tonda nisoao, naho amo vahe niregoregoo,
13 For the land of my people whereon thorns and briers come up; yea, for all the houses of joy and the joyous city.
ty amy tane-hoba’ ondatikoy, ie itiriam-patike naho hisatse; eka, ty amo anjomba mitsinjakeo vaho i rova mandia taròbay.
14 For the palace shall be forsaken; the city with its stir shall be deserted; the mound and the tower shall be for dens for ever, a joy of wild asses, a pasture of flocks;
Fa kòake i anjombam-panjakay, babangoañe i rova ­nitsi­tsike ondatiy; fa lakato nainai’e ty haboa naho ty fijilovañ’abo fa fitsamboañam-birike lý naho fiandraza’ o lia-raikeo
15 Until the spirit be poured upon us from on high, and the wilderness become a fruitful field, and the fruitful field be counted for a forest.
ampara’ te adoañe amantika ty Arofo boak’ añ’abo, ie ho tete-­kobokara ty ratraratra, vaho atao ty hoe ala ty tonda vokatse.
16 Then justice shall dwell in the wilderness, and righteousness shall abide in the fruitful field.
Himoneñe am-patrambey ao amy zao ty hatò, vaho hañialo an-tonda kobokara ao ty havantañañe.
17 And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and confidence for ever.
Hamokatse fierañerañañe ty havañonañe, hahatoly fianjiñañe naho fatokisañe nainai’e ty hamarentane.
18 And my people shall abide in a peaceable habitation, and in secure dwellings, and in quiet resting-places.
Hitoboke añ’akibam-pañanintsiñe ondatikoo, naho am-pipaliran-tsoa, vaho am-pitofàñe mipendreñe.
19 And it shall hail, in the downfall of the forest; but the city shall descend into the valley.
Manahake te mihotrake ty amy havandray i alay; t’ie harèke ambane i rovay.
20 Happy are ye that sow beside all waters, that send forth freely the feet of the ox and the ass.
Haha nahareo mpitongy añ’olon-drano iabio, o mampidada ty tombo’ o añombeo naho o borìkeo.
