< Isaiah 50 >

1 Thus said YHWH: “Where [is] this—the bill of your mother’s divorce, Whom I sent away? Or to which of My creditors have I sold you? Behold, you have been sold for your iniquities, And for your transgressions Your mother has been sent away.
Hoe t’Iehovà: Aia ty takelam-panarahañe naneseako an-drene’ areo? Ia amo mpampisongo amakoo ty nandetahako anahareo? Toe niletahañe ty amo tahi’ areoo, vaho o fiolà’ areoo ty naneseañe ty rene’ areo.
2 Why have I come, and there is no one? I called, and there is none answering, Has My hand been at all short of redemption? And is there not power in Me to deliver? Behold, by My rebuke I dry up a sea, I make rivers a wilderness, Their fish stink, for there is no water, And die with thirst.
Akore te tsy teo ty ondaty, te izaho nimb’eo? Ie nikaike, tsy teo ty ho nanoiñe? Bory hao ty sirako tsy hahafijebañe? Aa vaho po-kaozarañe hao raho tsy haharombake? Heheke maiheko i riakey te endahako; anoeko ratraratra o sakao; mantiñe o fia’eo kanao tsy an-drano, mate’ ty arandrano.
3 I clothe the heavens [with] blackness, And I make their covering sackcloth.”
Sikinako mainte o likerañeo, añombeako gony ho saroñe.
4 Lord YHWH has given to Me The tongue of taught ones, To know to aid the weary [by] a word, He awakens [Me] morning by morning, He awakens [My] ear to hear as taught ones.
Fa natolo’ i Talè, Iehovà ahiko ty famele’ o nanàrañeo, hampanintsiñako an-drehake o mondetseo; barakakaofe’e boa-maraiñe tsekafe’e o sofikoo hitsanoñe hoe t’ie mpioke.
5 Lord YHWH opened My ear, And I did not rebel—I did not move backward.
Fa nisokafe’ i Talè, Iehovà o sofikoo, le tsy nanjehatse, tsy niamboho.
6 I have given My back to those striking, And My cheeks to those plucking out, I did not hide My face from shame and spitting.
Natoloko amo mpandafao ty lambosiko, naho amo mpañono-boloo ty fifiko; tsy naetako ami’ty ònjitse naho ami’ty rora ty tareheko.
7 And Lord YHWH gives help to Me, Therefore I have not been ashamed, Therefore I have set My face as a flint, And I know that I am not ashamed.
Hañolotse ahy t’i Talè, Iehovà, aa le tsy nisalatse; nampigañeko hoe vato-paike ty tareheko, le fantako te tsy ho meñatse;
8 Near [is] He who is justifying Me, Who contends with Me? We stand together, who [is] My opponent? Let him come near to Me.
fa marine ao i Mpañatò ahikoy. Ia ty hifañotake amako? Antao songa hiongake; Ia ty rafelahiko? Angao re hitotoke amako.
9 Behold, Lord YHWH gives help to Me, Who [is] he that declares Me wicked? Behold, all of them wear out as a garment, A moth eats them.
I Talè, Iehovà ro mpañolotse ahy; ia ka ty hamatse ahy? Fonga hihamodo hoe tsirodea; ho vazañem-pizara.
10 “Who [is] among you, fearing YHWH, Listening to the voice of His Servant, That has walked in dark places, And there is no brightness for him? Let him trust in the Name of YHWH, And lean on his God.
Ia ama’ areo ty mañeveñe am’ Iehovà, naho mañorike ty feo’ i mpitoro’ey? Aa ndra t’ie mañavelo añ’ieñe ie tsy aman-kazavàñe, le hiatoa’e ty tahina’ Iehovà, vaho hirampia’e t’i Andrianañahare’e.
11 Behold, all you kindling a fire, girding on sparks, Walk in the light of your fire, And in the sparks you have caused to burn, This has been to you from My hand, You lie down in grief!”
O ry mpamiañe afoo, o mpisikiñe vaen-afoo, mandià amo lebaleban’ afo’ areoo, amo vaen’afo niviañe’ areoo. zao ty hizò anahareo an-tañako t’ie handre an-anahelo.
