Isaiah 1
1 The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah.
Ny fahitan’ Isaia, zanak’ i Amoza, izay hitany ny amin’ ny Joda sy Jerosalema tamin’ ny andron’ i Ozia sy Jotama sy Ahaza ary Hezekia, izay samy mpanjakan’ ny Joda.
2 Hear, heavens, and listen, earth; for Jehovah has spoken: I have nourished and brought up children, and they have rebelled against me.
Mandrenesa, ry lanitra, ary mihainoa, ry tany, Fa Jehovah no miteny hoe: Efa nitaiza sy nahalehibe zaza Aho, Kanjo niodina tamiko ireo.
3 The ox knows his owner, and the donkey his master's crib; but Israel doesn't know, my people do not understand.
Ny omby mahalala ny tompony, Ary ny boriky ny fihinanam-bilon’ ny tompony; Fa ny Isiraely tsy mahalala, Ny oloko tsy misaina.
4 Ah sinful nation, a people loaded with iniquity, offspring of evildoers, children who deal corruptly. They have forsaken Jehovah. They have despised the Holy One of Israel. They are estranged and backward.
Indrisy! firenena mpanota, olona mavesa-keloka, Taranaka mpanao ratsy, zanaka mpanao meloka! Efa nahafoy an’ i Jehovah izy, Efa nanamavo ny Iray Masin’ ny Isiraely. Efa nihodina izy.
5 Why should you be beaten more, that you revolt more and more? The whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint.
Nahoana no mbola ta-hasiana ihany ianareo noho izao fiodinanareo lalandava izao? Henika aretina avokoa ny loha rehetra, Ary marary ny fo rehetra.
6 From the sole of the foot even to the head there is no soundness in it: wounds, welts, and open sores. They haven't been closed, neither bandaged, neither soothed with oil.
Hatramin’ ny faladia ka hatramin’ ny loha dia tsy misy izay tsy marary, Fa ratra sy dian-kapoka ary fery vao; Tsy mbola voaporitra, na voafehy, na voalemin’ ny diloilo izy.
7 Your country is desolate. Your cities are burned with fire. Strangers devour your land in your presence, and it is desolate, as overthrown by strangers.
Ny taninareo dia efa lao; Ny tanànanareo dia voadotra tamin’ ny afo; Ny tany volenareo dia lanin’ ny fahavalo eo imasonareo, ary lao izy toy ny efa noravan’ ny fahavalo.
8 The daughter of Zion is left like a shelter in a vineyard, like a hut in a field of cucumbers, like a besieged city.
Ary Ziona zanakavavy dia nilaozana tahaka ny trano rantsan-kazo ao anaty tanim-boaloboka, Sy tahaka ny fandriana mihantona an’ ny mpiandry voly ao anaty tanimbolim-boantango, Dia tahaka ny tanàna atao fahirano.
9 Unless Jehovah of hosts had left us a few survivors, we would have been as Sodom, and we would have been like Gomorrah.
Raha tsy nosisan’ i Jehovah. Tompon’ ny maro, olona vitsivitsy isika, Dia efa tonga tahaka an’ i Sodoma Ary nitovy tamin’ i Gomora.
10 Hear the word of Jehovah, you rulers of Sodom. Listen to the law of our God, you people of Gomorrah.
Mandrenesa ny tenin’ i Jehovah, ry mpitsaran’ i Sodoma; Mihainoa ny lalàn’ Andriamanitsika, ry vahoakan’ i Gomora.
11 "What are the multitude of your sacrifices to me?," says Jehovah. "I have had enough of the burnt offerings of rams, and the fat of fed animals. I do not delight in the blood of bulls, or of lambs, or of male goats.
Hataoko inona ny zavatra betsaka vonoinareo ho fanatitra? hoy Jehovah; Efa tofoka ny ondrilahy atao fanatitra dorana sy ny saboran’ ny zanak’ omby mifahy Aho, Ary tsy sitrako ny ran’ ny vantotr’ ombilahy sy ny an’ ny zanak’ ondry ary ny an’ ny osilahy.
12 When you come to appear before me, who has required this at your hand, to trample my courts?
Raha avy miseho eo anatrehako ianareo, Iza moa no nitady anareo hanitsakitsaka ny kianjako?
13 Bring no more vain offerings. Incense is an abomination to me; new moons, Sabbaths, and convocations: I can't bear with evil assemblies.
Aza mitondra fanati-poana intsony; Fofona fahavetavetana amiko izany! Ny voaloham-bolana sy ny Sabata ary ny fiantsoam-piangonana Tsy zakako ny fivoriana masìna haroharoam-paharatsiana!
14 My soul hates your New Moons and your appointed feasts. They are a burden to me. I am weary of bearing them.
Ny voaloham-bolanareo sy ny fotoam-pivavahanareo dia halan’ ny fanahiko, Mavesatra amiko izany, Ka sasatra mitondra azy Aho.
15 When you spread forth your hands, I will hide my eyes from you. Yes, when you make many prayers, I will not hear. Your hands are full of blood.
Raha mananty tanana ianareo, Dia hitampi-maso tsy hijery anareo Aho; Eny, na dia manao vavaka be aza ianareo, dia tsy hihaino Aho; Feno ran’ olona ny tananareo.
16 Wash yourselves, make yourself clean. Put away the evil of your doings from before my eyes. Cease to do evil.
Misasà ianareo, diovy ny tenanareo, Esory tsy ho eo anoloan’ ny masoko ny ratsy fanaonareo; Mitsahara, fa aza manao ratsy;
17 Learn to do well. Seek justice. Relieve the oppressed. Judge the fatherless. Plead for the widow."
Mianara hanao ny tsara, Diniho izay rariny, anaro ny mpampahory, Omeo rariny ny kamboty, tsarao ny adin’ ny mpitondratena.
18 "Come now, and let us reason together," says Jehovah: "Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow. Though they are red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
Avia ary hifandahatra isika, hoy Jehovah: Na dia tahaka ny jaky aza ny fahotanareo, Dia ho fotsy tahaka ny oram-panala, Na dia mangatrakatraka tahaka ny sily aza, Dia ho tahaka ny volon’ ondry fotsy.
19 If you are willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land;
Raha manaiky sy mankatò ianareo, dia hihinana ny voka-tsoa amin’ ny tany;
20 but if you refuse and rebel, the sword shall devour you; for the mouth of Jehovah has spoken it."
Fa raha mbola mandà sy miodina ihany ianareo, Dia ho lanin’ ny sabatra: Fa ny vavan’ i Jehovah no efa niteny.
21 How the faithful city has become a prostitute. She was full of justice; righteousness lodged in her, but now murderers.
Indrisy! tonga janga ity tanàna mahatoky Izay feno ny rariny taloha Sady nitoeran’ ny fahamarinana, Fa ankehitriny kosa mpamono olona no ao.
22 Your silver has become dross, your wine mixed with water.
Ny volafotsinao efa tonga tain-drendrika; Ny divainao efa voatsatso rano;
23 Your rulers are rebellious, companions of thieves. Everyone loves a bribe, chasing after payoffs. They do not judge the fatherless, neither does the cause of the widow come to them.
Ny lehibenao dia mpiodina sady naman’ ny mpangalatra; Samy tia kolikoly sy fatra-nitady tambitam-by avokoa izy rehetra; Ny kamboty tsy mba omeny rariny, Ary ny adin’ ny mpitondratena tsy avelany ho entina eo anatrehany.
24 Therefore Jehovah of hosts, the Mighty One of Israel, says: "Ah, I will get relief from my adversaries, and avenge myself of my enemies;
Ka dia hoy Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Ilay Maherin’ ny Isiraely: E! hiala fo amin’ ny mandrafy Ahy Aho Ary hamaly ny fahavaloko.
25 and I will turn my hand against you, and I will purge away your dross, and I will take away all your slag.
Dia hamerina ny tanako ho aminao Aho, Ka hodioviko amin’ ny lavenona ianao hahafahan’ ny tain-drendrikao, ary hesoriko ny firaka rehetra aminao.
26 I will restore your judges as at the first, and your counselors as at the beginning. Afterward you shall be called 'The city of righteousness, a faithful town.'
Dia hampodiko ho toy ny teo aloha ny mpitsaranao, Ary ny mpanolo-tsainao ho toy ny tamin’ ny voalohany; Ary rehefa afaka izany, ianao dia hantsoina hoe: Tanànan’ ny fahamarinana, Tanàna mahatoky.
27 Zion shall be redeemed with justice, and her converts with righteousness.
Ziona havotana amin’ ny fitsarana, ary izay efa mibebaka ao dia havotana amin’ ny fahamarinana;
28 But the destruction of transgressors and sinners shall be together, and those who forsake Jehovah shall be consumed.
Ary samy haringana avotoa ny mpiodina sy ny mpanota, Eny, ho lany ritra izay mahafoy an’ i Jehovah.
29 For they shall be ashamed of the oaks which you have desired, and you shall be confounded for the gardens that you have chosen.
Fa hahazo henatra ianareo noho ny amin’ ny hazo terebinta izay nifalianareo, ary hangaihay ianareo noho ny amin’ ny saha izay natokanareo.
30 For you shall be as an oak whose leaf fades, and as a garden that has no water.
Fa ho tahaka ny hazo terebinta malazo ravina ianareo, Sy ho tahaka ny saha tsy misy rano.
31 The strong will be like tinder, and his work like a spark. They will both burn together, and no one will quench them."
Ny mahery ho tahaka ny vohavoha, Ary ny asany ho tahaka ny kilalaon’ afo, Dia hiaraka hodorana izy roa tonta, Ka tsy hisy hamono ny afo.
