Isaiah 47
1 "Come down, and sit in the dust, virgin daughter of Babylon; sit on the ground without a throne, daughter of the Chaldeans: for you shall no more be called tender and delicate.
Mialà, ka mipetraha amin’ ny vovoka, ry Babylona, zanakavavy virijina! Mipetraha eo amin’ ny tany, fa tsy amin’ ny seza fiandrianana, ry Kaldea zanakavavy! Fa tsy hatao hoe vehivavy malemilemy sy mihantahanta intsony ianao.
2 Take the millstones, and grind meal; remove your veil, strip off the train, uncover the leg, pass through the rivers.
Alao ny vato fikosoham-bary, ka kosohy ny koba; esory ny fisalobonanao, akaro ny moron-tongotr’ akanjonao; aoka hiseho ny fenao, ka miroboha mita ny ony.
3 Your nakedness shall be uncovered, yes, your shame shall be seen: I will take vengeance, and will spare no man,"
Hiseho ny fitanjahanao, eny, ho hita ny fahamenaranao; hitondra famaliana Aho ka tsy hiantra olona.
4 says our Redeemer; the LORD of hosts is his name, the Holy One of Israel.
Ny anaran’ ny Mpanavotra anay dia Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Iray Masin’ ny Isiraely.
5 "Sit in silence, and go into darkness, daughter of the Chaldeans; for you shall no more be called the mistress of kingdoms.
Mipetraha mangingina, ka midìra ao amin’ ny maizina, ry Kaldea zanakavavy! Fa tsy hatao hoe Tompovavin’ ny fanjakana intsony ianao.
6 I was angry with my people, I profaned my inheritance, and gave them into your hand: you showed them no mercy; on the aged you have very heavily laid your yoke.
Tezitra tamin’ ny oloko Aho; navelako holotoina ny lovako, ka natolotro ho eo an-tananao izy, tsy mba namindranao fo izy, fa na dia ny antitra aza dia nasianao zioga mavesatra dia mavesatra.
7 You said, 'I shall be a mistress forever;' so that you did not lay these things to your heart, nor did you remember the latter end of it.
Ary hoy ianao: Ho tompovavy mandrakizay Aho; ka dia tsy nandatsaka am-po izany zavatra izany ianao, na nitsapa izay hiafarany.
8 "Now therefore hear this, you who are given to pleasures, who sit securely, who say in your heart, 'I am, and there is no other besides me; I shall not sit as a widow, neither shall I know the loss of children:'
Koa mihainoa, ianao izay mihantahanta sady mipetraka tsy manana ahiahy ka manao anakampo hoe: Izaho no izy, ary tsy misy hafa; tsy hipetraka ho mpitondratena aho, na hahita fahafoanan’ anaka.
9 but these two things shall come to you in a moment in one day, the loss of children, and widowhood; in their full measure shall they come on you, in spite of your many sorceries and the potency of your spells.
Kanjo hanjo anao tampoka amin’ ny indray andro monja ireto zavatra roa ireto, dia ny fahafoanan’ anaka sy ny fananoan-tena; Hotanterahina aminao avokoa izany, na dia maro aza ny fankatovanao, ary na dia be dia be aza ny odinao.
10 For you have trusted in your wickedness; you have said, No one sees me; your wisdom and your knowledge, it has perverted you, and you have said in your heart, 'I am, and there is no other besides me.'
Fa nitoky tamin’ ny faharatsianao ianao ka nanao hoe: Tsy misy mahita ahy. Ny fahendrenao sy ny fahalalanao dia nampivily anao, ka dia nanao anakampo ianao hoe: Izaho no izy, fa tsy misy afa-tsy izaho.
11 Therefore disaster will come on you; you won't know when it dawns: and calamity will fall on you; you will not be able to put it away: and desolation shall come on you suddenly and unexpectedly.
Kanjo hanjo anao ny fahoriana, nefa tsy ho fantatrao izay fanafany; Ary hahazo anao ny loza, nefa tsy ho hainao ny fanàlany; eny, hanjo anao tampoka ny fandringanana izay tsy ampoizinao.
12 "Stand now with your enchantments, and with the multitude of your sorceries, in which you have labored from your youth; if so be you shall be able to profit, if so be you may prevail.
Arosoy ary ny odinao sy ny hamaroan’ ny fankatovanao, izay efa nisasaranao hatry ny fony ianao mbola kely; Angamba hahavita izay mahasoa ianao; angamba ho tonga mahatahotra ianao.
13 You are wearied in the multitude of your counsels; those who conjure the heavens, the stargazers, the monthly prognosticators, stand up, and save you from the things that shall come on you.
Sasatra noho ny hamaroan’ ny fisainanao ianao; aoka hitsangana ankehitriny ireo mpamantatra ny lanitra sy mpandinika ny kintana ireo hamonjy anao, dia ireo mpanambara isaky ny tsinam-bolana izay zavatra ho tonga aminao.
14 Look, they shall be as stubble; the fire shall burn them; they shall not deliver themselves from the power of the flame: it shall not be a coal to warm at, nor a fire to sit before.
Indro, fa ho tahaka ny vodivary ireo; ho main’ ny afo izy ka tsy hahavonjy ny tenany amin’ ny herin’ ny lelafo akory; tsy misy vainafo hamindroana, na afo hitaninana aza.
15 Thus shall the things be to you in which you have labored: those who have trafficked with you from your youth shall wander everyone to his quarter; there shall be none to save you.
Ho toy izany aminao ireo efa nisasaranao ireo, dia ireo nifampivarotra taminao hatry ny fony ianao mbola kely; samy hipariaka mandositra ho any amin’ ny fonenany avy izy, ka tsy hisy hahavonjy anao.
