Ezekiel 17
1 And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
Le niheo amako ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
2 “Son of man, put forth a riddle, and use an allegory to the house of Israel,
O ana’ondatio, taroño ty razan-drehake, naho saontsio tafatoño ty anjomba’ Israele,
3 and you have said, Thus said Lord YHWH: The great eagle, great-winged, long-pinioned, Full of feathers, that has diverse colors, Has come to Lebanon, And he takes the foliage of the cedar,
ami’ty hoe, Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè, Nivotrake e Libanone ao ty vantio ra’elahy, amañ’ elatse jabajaba naho elatse lava, nohoñem-bolo maro-volo vaho nipetake an-tsampa’ ty mendorave loho abo;
4 He has cropped the top of its tender twigs, And he brings it to the land of Canaan. He has placed it in a city of merchants.
tsinongo’e ty lengo’e naho nente’e mb’ an-tane bey tsena mb’eo; vaho navotra’e an-drovam-pampibalibalik’ ao.
5 And he takes of the seed of the land, And puts it in a field of seed, He took [it] by many waters, He has set it in a conspicuous place.
Nangala’e ka ty tabiri’ i taney naho tinongi’e an-teteke kobokara ao; napo’e marine rano bei-henehene eo, vaho najado’e hoe solohotse.
6 And it springs up, and becomes a spreading vine, humble of stature, To turn its thin shoots toward itself, And its roots are under it, And it becomes a vine, and makes boughs, And sends forth beautiful branches.
Nibotiboty re, ninjare vahe maro tsampa’e nandrevake naho petrake, vaho nitolike ama’e o singa’eo, fe ambane’e ao o vaha’eo. Aa le ninjare vahe re; nitirian-tora’e naho nampitakare’e mb’eo mb’eo o singa’eo.
7 And there is another great eagle, Great-winged, and abounding with feathers, And behold, this vine has bent its roots toward him, And it has sent out its thin shoots toward him, To water it from the furrows of its planting,
Teo ka ty vantio ra’elahy amañ’ elatse jabajaba naho volo maro; le heheke te natola’ i vahey mb’ama’e o vaha’ eo, vaho nahiti’e mb’ama’e o tora’eo boak’ amy vavahaly namboleañe aze hanondraha’ey.
8 On a good field, by many waters, it is planted, to make branches, and to bear fruit, to be for a good vine.
Toe nitongise’e an-tane soa marine rano mihenehene, hitiria’ o tora’eo, hiegoego ho vahe soa.
9 Say, Thus said Lord YHWH: It prospers—does he not draw out its roots, And cut off its fruit, and it is withered? [In] all the leaves of its springing it withers, And not by great strength, or by numerous people, To lift it up by its roots.
Ano ty hoe: Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè, Hiraorao v’izay? Tsy hombota’e hao o vaha’eo naho hampiantoe’e o voa’eo vaho hapo’e hiforejeje—le sindre hiheatse o raven-doha-tao’eo? Le ndra haozaram-bey ndra ondaty mitozantozañe tsy hahafitroats’ aze boak’ ambahatse.
10 And behold, the planted thing—does it prosper? When the east wind comes against it, does it not utterly wither? On the furrows of its springing it withers.”
Oniño, t’ie aketsa eo, hihaveloñe hao? Tsy hiheatse amy zao hao naho iozà’ i tiok’atiñanañey? Toe hiforejeje amo vavahaly nitiria’eo.
11 And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
Niheo amako indraike ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
12 “Now say to the house of rebellion, Have you not known what these [are]? Say, Behold, the king of Babylon has come to Jerusalem, And he takes its king, and its princes, And brings them to himself to Babylon.
Saontsio henaneo i anjomba miolay: Fohi’ areo hao ty ango’ i taliliy? Taroño am’ iereo ty hoe: Hehe fa nivotrake e Ierosalaime ty mpanjaka’ i Bavele, naho rinambe’e i mpanjaka’ey naho o roandria’eo, vaho nasese’e mindre ama’e mb’e Bavele mb’eo;
13 And he takes of the seed of the kingdom, And makes a covenant with him, And brings him into an oath, And he has taken the mighty of the land,
le rinambe’e ty tiri’ i fifeheañey naho nifañina’e vaho nampifanta’e; fa rinambe’e ka o fanalolahi’ i taneio,
14 That the kingdom may be humble, That it may not lift itself up, To keep his covenant—that it may stand.
soa te hafotsak’ ambane i fifeheañey tsy hiongake ka, soa te ho tana’e ty nifañina’e vaho hirekets’ ama’e.
15 And he rebels against him, To send his messengers to Egypt, To give to him horses, and many people, Does he prosper? Does he who is doing these things escape? And has he broken covenant and escaped?
F’ie niola ami’te nirahe’e mb’e Mitsraime mb’eo o sorotà’eo, hañomeza’ iareo soavala naho ondaty maro. Hiraorao hao re? Hapoke hipoliotse hao ty manao izay? Hadoñe hivongaritse hao i nivalik’ amy fañina’eiy?
16 [As] I live—a declaration of Lord YHWH, Does he not—in the place of the king who is causing him to reign, Whose oath he has despised, And whose covenant he has broken—die with him in the midst of Babylon?
Aa kanao velon-dRaho hoe t’Iehovà Talè, le amy fimoneña’ i mpanjaka’ nañoreñ’ aze ho mpanjakay, ie tsinambolitio’e i nifantà’ey naho nifotera’e i fañina’ey, le añivo’ i Bavele ao ty hihomaha’e.
17 And not with a great force, and with a numerous assembly, Does Pharaoh maintain him in battle, By pouring out a mound, and in building a fortification, To cut off many souls.
Le tsy hahafañolotse aze t’i Parò amo lahin-defoñe mitozantozañeo naho amy valobohò’ey, ie amotria’ iareo tamboho, naho andranjia’e fikalañe fatratse hañitoa’e t’indaty maro,
18 And he despised the oath—to break covenant, And behold, he has given his hand, And all these he has done—he does not escape.
ie nañamavo i fantay, nivalike amy fañinay, naho nanolo-pitàñe mbore nanao ieaby rezay, toe tsy hipoliotse.
19 Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: [As] I live—My oath that he has despised, And My covenant that he has broken, Have I not put it on his head?
Aa le hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè; Kanao velon-dRaho, le hafoteko añ’ambone’e eo i nifantàko nitsambolitio’ey naho i fañinako navali’ey.
20 And I have spread out My snare for him, And he has been caught in My net, And I have brought him to Babylon, And judged him there [for the] trespass That he has trespassed against Me.
Le halafiko ama’e ty haratoko, naho ho tsepaheñe an-koboko ao, le Izaho ty hanese aze mb’e Bavele añe, hizaka aze amo fandilarañe niolà’e amakoo.
21 And all his fugitives, with all his bands, Fall by sword, and those remaining, They are spread out to every wind, And you have known that I, YHWH, have spoken.
Sindre hampikorovohe’ ty fibara o gike ama’eo naho o fonga lahin-defo’eo, naho songa hampiparatsaheñe mb’amo tiokeo mb’eo ze sehanga’e; ho fohi’ areo te Izaho Iehovà ty nitsara.
22 Thus said Lord YHWH: I have taken of the foliage of the high cedar, And I have set [it], I crop a tender one from the top of its tender shoots, And I have planted [it] on a high and lofty mountain.
Hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè; Ho tsongoeko ka ty tora’e an-tiotio’ i talý aboy, naho haoreko; ho harateko boak’ an-tora’e fatratse ty lengo’e maleme, vaho haketsako an-tamboho abo mininginingy ey;
23 In a mountain—the high place of Israel, I plant it, And it has borne boughs, and yielded fruit, And become a good cedar, And every bird of every [kind of] wing has dwelt under it, They dwell in the shade of its thin shoots.
amy vohitse abo’ Israeley ty hamboleako aze le hitiry tsampa’e naho hamoa voa vaho hinjare talý fanjaka; le sindre himoneñ’ ambane’e ao ze karazam-boroñe; naho songa hitsolok’ an-kalo’ o tora’eo ze raha mitiliñe.
24 And all trees of the field have known That I, YHWH, have made the high tree low, I have set the low tree on high, I have dried up the moist tree, And I have caused the dry tree to flourish, I, YHWH, have spoken, and have done [it]!”
Le ho rendre’ ze hene hatae am-patrañe ao te Izaho Iehovà ty nampideboñe i hatae nijoalay, naho naonjoko ty hatae bory; nampiforejejèko ty hatae leñe vaho nampiraoraoeko ty hatae maike; Izaho Iehovà ty nitsara naho nanao.
