Isaiah 13
1 The burden of Babylon, which Isaiah the son of Amoz saw:
Faminaniana hitan’ Isaia, zanak’ i Amoza, ny amin’ ny loza hanjo an’ i Babylona.
2 Set up a banner on the bare mountain. Lift up your voice to them. Wave your hand, that they may go into the gates of the nobles.
Manangàna faneva eo an-tampon’ izay tendrombohitra mangadihady ianareo, manandrata feo hiantso azy, hofay tanana izy hiditra amin’ ny vavahadin’ ireo mpanapaka.
3 I have commanded my consecrated ones; I have also called my mighty men to carry out my anger, my proudly exulting ones.
Izaho efa nandidy ny nohamasiniko, eny, efa niantso ny lehilahy maheriko aho, dia ireo mibitaka amim-pireharehana, hahatanteraka ny fahatezerako.
4 The noise of a multitude is in the mountains, as of a great people; the noise of an uproar of the kingdoms of the nations gathered together. The LORD of hosts is mustering the army for the battle.
Injany! ny horakoraka any an-tendrombohitra, tahaka ny an’ ny vahoaka be! Dia ny fitabataban’ ny fanjakan’ ny firenena efa tafatambatra! Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, no manomana miaramila hiady,
5 They come from a far country, from the uttermost part of heaven, even the LORD, and the weapons of his indignation, to destroy the whole land.
Izay avy any amin’ ny tany lavitra, any amin’ ny faravodilanitra, dia Jehovah sy ireo fitaovan’ ny fahatezerany, ho enti-mandrava ny tany rehetra.
6 Wail; for the day of the LORD is at hand. It will come as destruction from Shaddai.
Midradradradrà ianareo, fa efa antomotra ny andron’ i Jehovah, ka tahaka ny loza tsy toha avy amin’ ny Tsitoha no fihaviny.
7 Therefore all hands will be feeble, and everyone's heart will melt.
Ary noho izany dia hiraviravy ny tanana rehetra, ary ho kivy ny fon’ ny zanak’ olombelona rehetra;
8 They will be dismayed. Pangs and sorrows will seize them. They will be in pain like a woman in labor. They will look in amazement one at another. Their faces will be faces of flame.
Ho toran-kovitra izy; Fanaintainana sy fahoriana no hahazo azy, ka hijalijaly tahaka ny vehivavy mihetsi-jaza izy; samy ho talanjona izy ka hifampijery; Mitarehin-delafo ny tarehiny.
9 Look, the day of the LORD comes, cruel, with wrath and fierce anger; to make the land a desolation, and to destroy its sinners out of it.
Indro, avy ny andron’ i Jehovah, dia loza sy fahavinirana ary firehetan’ ny fahatezerana hanafoanana ny tany sy handringanana ny mpanota tsy ho ao.
10 For the stars of the sky and its constellations will not give their light. The sun will be darkened in its going forth, and the moon will not cause its light to shine.
Fa ny kintan’ ny lanitra, na dia ireo Telonohorefy aza, dia tsy hampamirapiratra ny fahazavany; ny masoandro ho maizina amin’ ny iposahany; Ary ny volana tsy hangarangarana.
11 I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity. I will cause the arrogance of the proud to cease, and will humble the haughtiness of the terrible.
Ary hatsingeriko amin’ izao tany rehetra izao ny faharatsiany, sy amin’ ny ratsy fanahy ny helony; Ary hatsahatro ny fireharehan’ ny mpiavonavona, Ary haetriko ny fiavonavonan’ ny mpampahory.
12 I will make people more rare than fine gold, even a person than the pure gold of Ophir.
Dia hataoko ho saro-tadiavina mihoatra noho ny volamena tsara ny olombelona, eny, noho ny tena volamena avy any Ofira aza.
13 Therefore I will make the heavens tremble, and the earth will be shaken out of its place in the wrath of the LORD of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger.
Ary noho izany dia hampihorohoroiko ny lanitra, ary ny tany hientanentana hiala amin’ ny fitoerany noho ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, sy noho ny andro firehetan’ ny fahatezerany.
14 It will happen that like a hunted gazelle, and like sheep that no one gathers, they will each turn to their own people, and will each flee to their own land.
Ary ho tahaka ny gazela hazaina ny olona, sy ho tahaka ny ondry aman’ osy tsy misy mpamory, ka dia samy ho lasa any amin’ ny fireneny avy izy, eny, samy handositra ho any amin’ ny taniny avy izy.
15 Everyone who is found will be thrust through. Everyone who is captured will fall by the sword.
Izay rehetra azo dia holefonina, ary izay rehetra tratra dia ho lavon’ ny sabatra.
16 Their infants also will be dashed in pieces before their eyes. Their houses will be ransacked, and their wives raped.
Ary ny zanany madinika hotorotoroina eo imasony; Ny tranony hobaboina, ary ny vadiny hosavihina.
17 Look, I will stir up the Medes against them, who will not value silver, and as for gold, they will not delight in it.
Indro, hamporisihiko hamely azy ny Mediana, izay manao ny volafotsy tsy ho zavatra ary tsy mankamamy ny volamena.
18 Their bows will dash the young men in pieces; and they shall have no pity on the fruit of the womb. Their eyes will not spare children.
Ny tsipìkany handripaka ny zatovo, ary izay ateraky ny kibo tsy hamindrany fo, eny, na dia ny zaza aza tsy hiantran’ ny masony.
19 Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldeans' pride, will be like when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.
Ary Babylona, ravaky ny fanjakana maro Tabiha sy reharehan’ ny Kaldeana, Dia ho rava tahaka ny nandravan’ Andriamanitra an’ i Sodoma sy Gomora;
20 It will never be inhabited, neither will it be lived in from generation to generation. The Arabian will not pitch a tent there, neither will shepherds make their flocks lie down there.
Tsy honenana mandrakizay izy ary tsy hitoerana intsony hatramin’ ny taranaka fara mandimby, Tsy hisy Arabo hanorin-day any, na mpiandry ondry hampandry ny ondriny any;
21 But wild animals of the desert will lie there, and their houses will be full of jackals. Ostriches will dwell there, and wild goats will frolic there.
Fa ny bibi-dia any an-efitra no hitoetra any, ho feno vorondolo ny tranony, ny ostritsa no hitoetra any, ary ny osilahy no hitsambikimbikina any,
22 Wolves will cry in their fortresses, and jackals in the pleasant palaces. Her time is near to come, and her days will not be prolonged.
Ny kary no hifampierena ao an-tranobeny, ary ny amboadia ao amin’ ny lapa nanaranam-po; efa antomotra ny fotoany, ary ny androny tsy hatao ela.
