Lamentations 2
1 Oh how hath the Lord covered in his anger the daughter of Zion with a cloud; he hath cast down from heaven unto the earth the ornament of Israel; and he hath not remembered his footstool on the day of his anger!
Indrisy! Ziona zanakavavy dia saronan’ ny Tompo rahona amin’ ny fahatezerany; Nazerany avy tany an-danitra ho amin’ ny tany ny reharehan’ ny Isiraely, Ary tsy tsaroany ny fitoeran-tongony tamin’ ny andro fahatezerany!
2 The Lord hath destroyed and hath not pitied all the habitation of Jacob: he hath thrown down in his wrath the strong-holds of the daughter of Judah: he hath thrown them down to the ground; he hath defiled the kingdom and its princes.
Nolevonin’ ny Tompo ny fonenan’ i Jakoba rehetra, fa tsy niantrany; Noravany an-katezerana ny fiarovan’ i Joda zanakavavy ka nazerany tamin’ ny tany, tsy nohamasininy ny fanjakana sy ny mpanapaka,
3 He hath hewn away in his fierce anger the whole horn of Israel; he hath drawn back his right hand before the enemy; and he burnt against Jacob like a flaming fire, which devoureth round about.
Nokapainy tamin’ ny fahatezerany mirehitra ny tandroky ny Isiraely rehetra; Nahemony teo anoloan’ ny fahavalo ny tànany ankavanana; Ary nandoro an’ i Jakoba Izy toy ny lelafo miredareda izay nandevona manodidina.
4 He bent his bow like an enemy; he held out his right hand as an adversary, and slew all that were pleasant to the eye: in the tent of the daughter of Zion did he pour out like fire his fury.
Nanenjana ny tsipìkany toy ny fahavalo Izy, nijoro naninjitra ny tànany ankavanana toy ny rafilahy Izy ka nandripaka izay rehetra mahafinaritra ny maso; Ny fahatezerany dia naidiny toy ny afo tamin’ ny lain’ i Ziona zanakavavy.
5 The Lord became like an enemy; he destroyed Israel, he destroyed all her palaces, he ruined her strong-holds, and he increased in the midst of the daughter of Judah groaning and wailing.
Ny Tompo dia tonga toy ny fahavalo ka nandevona ny Isiraely. Eny, nolevoniny ny lapany rehetra, sady noravany ny fiarovany; Ary nampitomboiny ny fisentoana sy ny fitarainan’ i Joda zanakavavy.
6 And he violently wasted, as if it were a garden, his tabernacle; he destroyed his place of assembly: [yea, ] the Lord hath caused to be forgotten in Zion the solemn feast and the day of rest, and hath despised in the indignation of his anger both king and priest.
Ary noravany an-keriny toy ny tanimboly ilay nofefena ho Azy, sady noravany ny trano fihaonany; Nataon’ i Jehovah hadino tao Ziona ny fotoam-pivavahana sy ny Sabata, ka nolaviny tamin’ ny fahatezerany mirehitra ny mpanjaka sy ny mpisorona.
7 The Lord hath cast off his altar, he hath made void his sanctuary, he hath surrendered into the hand of the enemy the walls of her palaces: they have made their voice to resound in the house of the Lord, as on a day of a solemn feast.
Ny alitarany narian’ ny Tompo, ny fitoerany masìna nolaviny; Natolony ho eo an-tànan’ ny fahavalo ny mandan’ ny lapa ao Ziona; Nanandratra ny feony tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah toy ny amin’ ny fotoam-pivavahana ireny.
8 The Lord hath resolved to destroy the wall of the daughter of Zion; he stretched out the measuring-line, he withdrew not his hand from destroying: and he caused the rampart and the wall to mourn; together they languish.
Jehovah ninia handrava ny mandan’ i Ziona zanakavavy; Nanenjana ny famolaina Izy ka tsy namonkina ny tanany tsy handrava; dia mampitomany ny fiarovany ivelany sy ny manda Izy, ka miara-dreraka ireo.
9 Sunk into the ground are her gates, he hath ruined and broken her bars: her king and her princes are among the nations without any law; her prophets also obtain no more any vision from the Lord.
Ny vavahadiny dia tototry ny tany, nosimbany sy notapatapahiny ny hidiny; Ny mpanjakany sy ny mpanapaka azy efa mby any amin’ ny firenena; Tsy misy lalàna intsony, fa na ny mpaminaniny aza dia tsy mahita fahitana avy amin’ i Jehovah.
10 The elders of the daughter of Zion sit upon the ground, they keep silence: they have thrown dust upon their head; they have girt themselves with sackcloth: the virgins of Jerusalem have brought down low their head to the ground.
Mipetraka amin’ ny tany ny loholon’ i Ziona zanakavavy ka mangìna; Nasiany vovoka ny lohany, misikìna lamba fisaonana izy; Ny virijina any Jerosalema nampitanondrika ny lohany ho amin’ ny tany.
11 My eyes do fail with tears, my bowels are heated, my liver is poured upon the earth because of the breach of the daughter of my people; because babes and sucklings faint away in the streets of the town.
Pahina ny masoko azon’ ny ranomaso, mandevilevy ny foko; Naidina tamin’ ny tany ny atiko noho ny fandringanana ny oloko zanakavavy, sy noho ny ankizy madinika sy ny zaza minono izay ana eny an-kalalahana ao an-tanàna.
12 To their mothers they say, Where is corn and wine? when they faint away like the deadly wounded in the streets of the city, when their soul is poured out on the bosom of their mother.
Raha ana toy ny voatrobaka eny an-kalalahana ao an-tanana izy, na miala aina eo am-pofoan-dreniny, dia manontany an-dreniny hoe izy: aiza izay vary sy divay?
13 What shall I take to witness for thee? what shall I compare unto thee, O daughter of Jerusalem? what shall I find equal to thee, that I may comfort thee, O virgin daughter of Zion? for great like the sea is thy breach; who can bring healing to thee?
Inona no hataoko vavolombelona ho anao? Inona no hanoharako anao, ry Jerosalema zanakavavy? Inona no hampitahaiko aminao mba hampiononako anao, ry Ziona zanakavavy virijina? Fa lehibe toy ny ranomasina ny faharatranao, iza no mahasitrana anao?
14 Thy prophets foresaw for thee vain and deceptive things; and they did not lay open thy iniquity, to cause thy backsliders to return: but they foresaw for thee prophecies of falsehood and seduction.
Ny mpaminaninao nahita lainga sy fahadalana ho anao; Ary tsy nampiseho ny helokao mba hiaro anao tsy ho babo; Fa nahita faminaniana lainga sy fampiviliana ho anao izy.
15 All that pass by [this] way clap their hands on account of thee; they hiss and shake their head over the daughter of Jerusalem: [saying, ] Is this the city that men called The perfection of beauty. The joy for all the earth?
Miteha-tanana anao izay rehetra mandalo eny an-dalana; Misitrisitra sy mihifikifi-doha amin’ i Jerosalema zanakavavy izy ka manao hoe: Ity va ilay tanàna nataony hoe Tena fahatsaran-tarehy Fifalian’ ny tany rehetra?
16 All thy enemies open wide their mouth against thee; they hiss and gnash their teeth; they say, We have swallowed her up: ah, truly this is the day that we hoped for; we have found, we have seen it.
Misanasana vava aminao ny fahavalonao rehetra; Misitrisitra sy mihidy vazana izy ka manao hoe: Efa nolevoninay! Ity tokoa no andro nandrasanay ka efa azonay sady hitanay.
17 The Lord hath done what he had resolved; he hath accomplished his word which he had ordained already in the days of old; he hath thrown down, and hath not pitied; and he hath caused to rejoice over thee thy enemy, he hath raised on high the horn of thy adversaries.
Jehovah efa nanao izay nosaininy ka nahatanteraka ny teniny izay nandidiany hatramin’ ny andro fahagola; Nandrava Izy, fa tsy niantra; Ary nampifaly ny fahavalo taminao Izy sady nanandratra ny tandroky ny rafilahinao.
18 Their heart crieth unto the Lord, O thou wall of the daughter of Zion, let tears run down like a stream day and night; allow thyself no rest; let not the apple of thy eye be still.
Ny fonao mitaraina amin’ ny Tompo: Ry mandan’ i Ziona zanakavavy! mandrotsaha ranomaso andro aman’ alina toy ny riaka; Aza mangìna, aoka tsy hitsahatra ny anakandriamasonao.
19 Arise, complain aloud in the night, in the beginning of the watches; pour out like water thy heart before the face of the Lord: lift up toward him thy hands because of the life of thy babes, that faint away for hunger at the corner of all the streets.
Mitsangàna, miantsoantsoa amin’ ny alina hatramin’ ny filatsahan’ ny fiambenana, Aidino tahaka ny rano eo anatrehan’ ny Tompo ny fonao! Asandrato aminy ny tananao hifona ho an’ ny ain’ ny zanakao madinika, izay anan’ ny hanoanana eny an-joron-dalambe rehetra eny.
20 See, O Lord, and behold! to whom hast thou ever done the like? Shall women, then, eat their own fruit, the babes they have tenderly nursed? or shall there be slain in the sanctuary of the Lord the priest and the prophet?
Jehovah ô, jereo ka izahao ny amin’ ny olona izay nanaovanao izany. Ny vehivavy va hihinana ny ateraky na kibony, dia ny zanany madinika trotroiny? Hovonoina ao amin’ ny fitoera-masin’ i Jehovah va ny mpisorona sy ny mpaminany?
21 There lie down on the ground in the streets the lad and the ancient: my virgins and my young men are fallen by the sword: thou hast slain on the day of thy anger; thou hast slaughtered, thou hast not pitied.
Miampatrampatra eny an-dalambe ny tanora sy ny antitra; Ny virijinako sy ny zatovoko dia lavon’ ny sabatra, Novonoinao tamin’ ny andro fahatezeranao izy, eny, naripakao, fa tsy niantranao.
22 Thou hast called, as it were on a festive day, my evil neighbors from round about; and there was not on the day of the Lord's anger one that escaped or remained: those that I had tenderly nursed and reared up my enemy brought to their end.
Nantsoinao ny fampangorohoroana manodidina ahy, toy ny amin’ ny fotoam-pivavahana, ka dia tsy nisy sisa afa-nandositra tamin’ ny andro fahatezeran’ i Jehovah; Izay notrotroiko sy notezaiko aza dia lanin’ ny fahavaloko.
