Isaiah 23
1 The Burden of Tyre. Howl, you ships of Tarshish, For it has been destroyed, Without house, without entrance, From the land of Chittim it was revealed to them.
Faminaniana ny amin’ ny loza hanjo an’ i Tyro. Midradradradrà ianareo, ry sambon’ i Tarsisy ô! Fa rava Tyro, ka tsy misy trano sady tsy azo idirana intsony ao; Avy tany amin’ ny tany Kitima no nanambarana izany taminy.
2 Be silent, you inhabitants of the island, Trader of Sidon, passing the sea, they filled you.
Mangìna, ianareo mponina amoron-tsiraka! Ny mpandranto avy any Sidona, Izay mandeha eny ambonin’ ny ranomasina, no efa nampanan-karena anao.
3 And the seed of Sihor [is] in many waters, Her increase [is] the harvest of the brook, And she is a market of nations.
Teny amin’ ny rano be ny varin’ i Sihora, dia ny vokatr’ i Neily, ka nampiditra harena ho azy; Ary tonga tsenan’ ny firenena izy.
4 Be ashamed, O Sidon; for the sea spoke, The strength of the sea, saying, “I have not been pained, nor have I brought forth, Nor have I nourished young men, [nor] brought up virgins.”
Aoka ho menatra ianao, ry Sidona; Fa ny ranomasina, dia ny fiarovana mafy ao an-dranomasina, efa niteny hoe: Tsy mbola nihetsi-jaza aho, na niteraka, tsy mbola nitaiza zatovo aho, na namelona virijina.
5 As they are pained [at] the report of Egypt, So [at] the report of Tyre.
Rehefa re tany Egypta izany, Dia toran-kovitra izy noho ny nanjo an’ i Tyro.
6 Pass over to Tarshish, howl, you inhabitants of the island,
Mità ho any Tarsisy ianareo; Midradradradrà, ry mponina amoron-tsiraka.
7 Is this your exulting one? Her antiquity [is] from the days of old, Her own feet carry her far off to sojourn.
Izao va no manjo anao, ry ilay niravoravo, izay efa naorina hatry ny fony fahagola sady nentin’ ny tongony hivahiny any lavitra any?
8 Who has counseled this against Tyre, The crowning one, whose traders [are] princes, Her merchants—the honored of earth?
Iza no nikasa izany hamelezana an’ i Tyro, mpanome satro-boninahitra, izany? Mpanapaka ny mpandrantony, Olo-malaza amin’ ny tany ny mpivarony.
9 YHWH of Hosts has counseled it, To defile the excellence of all beauty, To make light all the honored of earth.
Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, no nikasa izany, mba hampietreny ny fiavonavonan’ ny voninahitra rehetra, sy hanalany ny voninahitry ny olo-malaza rehetra amin’ ny tany.
10 Pass through your land as a brook, Daughter of Tarshish, There is no longer a girdle.
Ry Tarsisy zanakavavy, aoka ianao hanafotra ny taninao tahaka an’ i Neily; Fa tsy misy fifehezana intsony.
11 He has stretched out His hand over the sea, He has caused kingdoms to tremble, YHWH has charged concerning the merchant one, To destroy her strong places.
Ny tànan’ i Jehovah nahifiny tambonin’ ny ranomasina; Nampihorohoroiny ny fanjakana; Jehovah efa nandidy ny amin’ i Kanana, mba horavana ny fiarovany mafy.
12 And He says, “You do not add to exult anymore, O oppressed one, virgin daughter of Sidon, To Chittim arise, pass over, Even there—there is no rest for you.”
Ary hoy Izy: Tsy hiravoravo intsony ianao, ry virijina afa-baraka, Sidona zanakavavy; Miaingà, mità ho any Kitima; Kanefa na dia any aza tsy hahita fitsaharana tsy akory ianao.
13 Behold, the land of the Chaldeans—this people was not, Asshur founded it for desert-dwellers, They raised its watchtowers, They lifted up her palaces—He has appointed her for a ruin!
Indro ny tanin’ ny Kaldeana! Tsy firenena intsony izy, fa nataon’ ny Asyriana fonenan’ ny bibi-dia any an-efitra; Manao tilikambo fitiliana izy ka mandrava ny lapan’ ny mpanjaka ao ary mampody azy ho korontam-bato.
14 Howl, you ships of Tarshish, For your strength has been destroyed.
Midradradradrà ianareo, ry sambon’ i Tarsisy ô! Fa rava ny fiarovanareo mafy.
15 And it has come to pass in that day, That Tyre is forgotten seventy years, According to the days of one king. At the end of seventy years there is to Tyre as the song of the harlot.
Ary amin’ izany andro izany dia hohadinoina fito-polo taona Tyro, toy ny andron’ ny mpanjaka iray; Ary rehefa afaka fito-polo taona, Tyro dia hiharan’ ilay tonon-kalon’ ny janga manao hoe:
16 Take a harp, go around the city, O forgotten harlot, play well, Multiply song that you may be remembered.
“Makà lokanga, ka miveziveze eran’ ny tanàna ianao, ry kala janga hadino; Mitendre tsara, ka mahereza mivazovazo, mba hahatsiarovana anao.”
17 And it has come to pass, At the end of seventy years YHWH inspects Tyre, And she has returned to her wage, And she committed fornication With all kingdoms of the earth on the face of the ground.
Ary rehefa afaka fito-polo taona, Jehovah hamangy an’ i Tyro, ka dia hiverina amin’ ny filan-tangy izy sy hijangajanga amin’ ny fanjakana rehetra manerana izao tontolo izao.
18 And her merchandise and her wage have been holy to YHWH, Not treasured up nor stored, For her merchandise is to those sitting before YHWH, To eat to satiety, and for a lasting covering!
Ary ny varony sy ny tangy azony dia hohamasinina ho an’ i Jehovah; Tsy hotehirizina na horaketina izany; Fa ny varony dia ho an’ izay mitoetra eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah, ho hanina mahavoky sy ho fitafiana mendrika.
