Isaiah 42

1 Behold my servant, whom I uphold; mine elect, in whom my soul delighteth; I have put my spirit upon him: he shall bring forth judgment to the Gentiles.

Intoy ty mpitoroko tohañako, ty jinoboko toe mahafale troke, le nakofòko ama’e ty troko ie ty hinday ty hatò amo kilakila’ ndatio.

2 He shall not cry, nor lift up, nor cause his voice to be heard in the street.

Tsy hikoikoike re tsy hampipoña-peo, le tsy hampijanjiñe’e an-dalañey ty fiarañanaña’e;

3 A bruised reed shall he not break, and the smoking flax shall he not quench: he shall bring forth judgment unto truth.

tsy ho potora’e ty vinda pineke vaho tsy hakipe’e ty lamese miliriliry; hampiboaha’e ty hatò ami’ty figahiña’e.

4 He shall not fail nor be discouraged, till he have set judgment in the earth: and the isles shall wait for his law.

Tsy ho toiran-dre, tsy ho demoke, ampara’ te najado’e an-tane atoy ty hatò; naho hitamà i Hake o olon-taneo.

5 Thus saith God Yhwh, he that created the heavens, and stretched them out; he that spread forth the earth, and that which cometh out of it; he that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein:

Hoe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare Mpamboatse o likerañeo naho nandafike iareo, I namelatse ty tane toy naho ze miboak’ ama’ey, ie mampikofòke ondaty ama’eo vaho manolotse arofo amo midraidraitse aoo.

6 I Yhwh have called thee in righteousness, and will hold thine hand, and will keep thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles;

Izaho Iehovà, ty nitok’azo an-kavañonañe, nitintineko ty taña’o naho nampitsoloheko, vaho natoloko ho fañina am’ondatio, ho hazavàñe amo kilakila’ ndatio,

7 To open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the prison, and them that sit in darkness out of the prison house.

hanokake ty fihaino fey hañakatse o mpirohy am-balabeio naho o mitozòke alafem-porozò añ’ieñeo.

8 I am Yhwh: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.

Izaho Iehovà, izay ty añarako; tsy hatoloko ami’ty ila’e o volonahekoo, ndra amo hazomangao ty engeko.

9 Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare: before they spring forth I tell you of them.

Heheke fa nihelañe o raha haehaeo, o raha vaoo o tseizeko henaneo; Ie mbe tsy mipoteake ty ho taroñeko ama’ areo.

10 Sing unto Yhwh a new song, and his praise from the end of the earth, ye that go down to the sea, and all that is therein; the isles, and the inhabitants thereof.

Misaboa sabo vao am’ Iehovà, ibangò ry añ’olo-tane añeo; ie mizotso mb’an-driakey, naho ze he’e ama’e ao, o tokonoseo, vaho o mpimoneñe ama’eo.

11 Let the wilderness and the cities thereof lift up their voice, the villages that Kedar doth inhabit: let the inhabitants of the rock sing, let them shout from the top of the mountains.

Hampionjonem-peo ty fatram-bey naho o rova ama’eo, o tanàñe añialoa’ i Kedareo, naho hañonjo Hake t’i Selà, vaho hipaza-­kafaleañe boak’ ankaboa’ o vohitseo.

12 Let them give glory unto Yhwh, and declare his praise in the islands.

Ho rengè’ iereo t’Iehovà, vaho hitsey ty enge’e amo tokonoseo.

13 Yhwh shall go forth as a mighty man, he shall stir up jealousy like a man of war: he shall cry, yea, roar; he shall prevail against his enemies.

Hionjom-b’eo hoe ­fanalolahy t’Iehovà, ho troboe’e am-pamarahiañe hoe lahin-defoñe; hikaikaike naho hisehaseha, hisenge amo rafelahi’eo ty haozara’e.

14 I have long time holden my peace; I have been still, and refrained myself: now will I cry like a travailing woman; I will destroy and devour at once.

Loho ela ty nitsiñako, nihendre vaho nifoneñe; f’ie henane zao, hikoiake hoe ampela mitsongo; hisañasaña naho hisehaseha.

15 I will make waste mountains and hills, and dry up all their herbs; and I will make the rivers islands, and I will dry up the pools.

Ho koaheko o vohitseo naho o haboañeo, vaho ho forejejeko o ahe’eo; hanoeko tokonose o oñe’eo, naho ho riteko o antara’eo.

16 And I will bring the blind by a way that they knew not; I will lead them in paths that they have not known: I will make darkness light before them, and crooked things straight. These things will I do unto them, and not forsake them.

Hendeseko mb’an-dalañe tsy nifohi’ iareo o goao; hiaoloako añ’oloñoloñe tsy nahazatse iareo; hanoeko hazavàñe aolo’ iereo eo ty ieñe, hampiraeko ze tomoantoañe. hanoeko iaby vaho tsy hapoko ampara’ t’ie fonitse.

17 They shall be turned back, they shall be greatly ashamed, that trust in graven images, that say to the molten images, Ye are our gods.

Hampiambohoeñe an-kasalarañe, o miato an-tsamposampo sinokitseo, ze manao amo sare nitranaheñeo, ‘ndrahare’ay nahareo’.

18 Hear, ye deaf; and look, ye blind, that ye may see.

Mijanjiña ry kareñeñeo, mahaisaha ry fey, hahavazohoa’ areo.

19 Who is blind, but my servant? or deaf, as my messenger that I sent? who is blind as he that is perfect, and blind as Yhwh's servant?

Ia ty goa naho tsy i mpitorokoy? ndra kareñe manahake i irako nafantokoy? Ia ty fey mandikoatse i nampanintsiñekoy, naho goa te amy mpitoro’ Iehovày?

20 Seeing many things, but thou observest not; opening the ears, but he heareth not.

Mahaisake raha maro nahareo fe tsy mahaoniñe, misokake o raven-tsofio fe tsy mahatsendreñe.

21 Yhwh is well pleased for his righteousness’ sake; he will magnify the law, and make it honourable.

Niehake t’Iehovà, ty amy havañona’ey, honjoñe’e naho ho renge’e i Tsara’ey.

22 But this is a people robbed and spoiled; they are all of them snared in holes, and they are hid in prison houses: they are for a prey, and none delivereth; for a spoil, and none saith, Restore.

Fe ondaty nikamereñe naho nivoloseñe retoa, songa tsinepake an-koboñe ao, naetake am-balabey ao; natao ho fitsatsàñe tsy amam-pandrombake, fikopahañe, le tsy eo ty manao: Ampolio.

23 Who among you will give ear to this? who will hearken and hear for the time to come?

Ia ama’ areo ty hanolo-ravembia amy zay? Ia ty hitsendreñe naho hijanjiñe amy ze añe zay?

24 Who gave Jacob for a spoil, and Israel to the robbers? did not Yhwh, he against whom we have sinned? for they would not walk in his ways, neither were they obedient unto his law.

Ia ty nanolotse Iakobe ho kopaheñe, naho Israele ho amo mpamaokeo? tsy Iehovà hao? I nanoantika hakeoy, tsy nete nañavelo amo lala’eo iereo, tsy norihe’ iareo o Tsara’eo.

25 Therefore he hath poured upon him the fury of his anger, and the strength of battle: and it hath set him on fire round about, yet he knew not; and it burned him, yet he laid it not to heart.

Aa le nadoa’e ama’e ty haforoforon-kaviñera’e, naho ty hafatraran-kotakotake; naho namiaña’e afo nañarikatok’aze fe tsy hinao’e, vaho nampiforehete’e, tsy rinambe’ ty arofo’e.
