< Isaiah 59 >

1 Look, YHWH's hand is not shortened, that it can't save; neither his ear heavy, that it can't hear:
Toe tsy ­nitomoreñe ty fità’ Iehovà tsy haharombake, mbore tsy mavesatse i ravembia’ey, tsy hahajanjiñe;
2 but your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hidden his face from you, so that he will not hear.
Fe nampisitake anahareo aman’Añahare’ areo o tahi’ areoo naho naeta’ o hakeo’ areoo amy lahara’ey nahareo, tsy hahajanjiñe.
3 For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, your tongue mutters wickedness.
Fa vinetan-dio o fità’oo, naho haratiañe o rambom-pità’oo; fa nireha-bande o soñi’oo, vaho miñeoñeon-kalò-tserehañe o lela’oo.
4 None sues in righteousness, and none pleads in truth: they trust in vanity, and speak lies; they conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity.
Tsy eo ty manisý an-kavañonañe, tsy eo ty mihalaly an-kahiti’e; miato an-kafoahañe, naho mivolam-bande, mampiareñe fikitrofañe iareo, mampiboloañe haloloañe.
5 They hatch adders' eggs, and weave the spider's web: he who eats of their eggs dies; and that which is crushed breaks out into a viper.
Ie mañatoly atolim-pañaneñe, mandrare fararotse; mate ty mitsopeke o atoli’eo, vaho ipoñafan-dapetake ze foy.
6 Their webs shall not become garments, neither shall they cover themselves with their works: their works are works of iniquity, and the act of violence is in their hands.
Tsy hanoen-tsaroñe o fararo’eo, vaho tsy ho sikina’ondaty o tolom-pità’eo; toe satan-karatiañe ty fifanehafa’ iareo, am-pità’ iareo ty tolom-piaroteñe.
7 Their feet run to evil, and they are swift to shed innocent blood. Their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity; destruction and calamity are in their paths.
Milay mb’an-kaloloañe mb’eo ty fandia’ iareo, naho malisa hampiori-dio màliñe; vetsevetse raty ty fitsakorea’ iareo, an-dala’ iareo ty fangoakoahañe naho ty fandrotsahañe.
8 The way of peace they do not know; and there is no justice in their goings: they have made them crooked paths; whoever goes in it does not know peace.
Nofi’ iareo ty lalam-pifampilongoañe, vaho tsy vantañe o oloñolo’ iareoo; tsy tendreke ­fañanintsiñe ze mizilike ao.
9 Therefore is justice far from us, neither does righteousness overtake us: we look for light, but, look, darkness; for brightness, but we walk in obscurity.
Toli-ndra lavits’antika ty havantañañe, vaho tsy mahatratse an-tika ty hatò; mipay hazavàñe tika, fe hehe t’ie hamoromoroñañe.
10 We grope for the wall like the blind; yes, we grope as those who have no eyes: we stumble at noonday as in the twilight; among those who are lusty we are as dead men.
Tsapatsapaen-tika i rindriñey manahake te goa, eka mitsapatsapa hoe tsy amam-pihaino; mitotohitse an-tsipinde-mena hoe am-palipalitsieñe; itika hoe lolo an-toetse maieñe ao.
11 We roar all like bears, and moan bitterly like doves: we look for justice, but there is none; for salvation, but it is far off from us.
Mañaolo hoe dobe tika, mangololoike hoe deho; mipay ty vantañe fa tsy eo; ty fandrombahañe, fe mitòtse aman-tika.
12 For our transgressions are multiplied before you, and our sins testify against us; for our transgressions are with us, and as for our iniquities, we know them:
Fa ­mitoabotse añatrefa’o eo o fiolà’aio, mbore manisý anay o tahi’aio; toe aolo’ay eo o fandilara’aio, vaho fohi’ay o ota-fali’aio:
13 transgressing and denying YHWH, and turning away from following our God, speaking oppression and revolt, conceiving and uttering from the heart words of falsehood.
mandilatse naho mitety Iehovà miamboho aman’Añahare’ay tsy mañorike Aze, mivolam-pamorekekeañe naho hamengohañe, mikinia naho mañakatse entan-dremborake boak’an-troke ao.
14 Justice is turned away backward, and righteousness stands afar off; for truth is fallen in the street, and uprightness can't enter.
Naolake ami’ty hatò, midisa-voly naho mijohañe eñe ty havañonañe; mitsikapy an-­gadagadañe ey ty fahiti’e, vaho tsy mete mizilik’ ao ty havantañañe.
15 Yes, truth is lacking; and he who departs from evil makes himself a prey. YHWH saw it, and it displeased him that there was no justice.
Milesa ty havañonañe, ze mienga ty haratiañe manao ty vata’e ho injaheñe; vazoho’ Iehovà, le heje’e t’ie po-kavantañañe.
16 He saw that there was no man, and wondered that there was no intercessor: therefore his own arm brought salvation to him; and his righteousness, it upheld him.
Nioni’e te tsy eo ty ondaty, vaho nilatsa t’ie tsy am-pañalañàlañe; aa le i fità’ey ty nandrombake ho Aze; i havantaña’ey ty nanozañe Aze.
17 He put on righteousness as a breastplate, and a helmet of salvation on his head; and he put on garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a mantle.
Niombea’e ty havañonañe hoe sarom-by naho añambone’e eo ty sabakam-pandrombahañe; nisaroñe lambam-pamaleam-pate ho fisaro’e, vaho nisaravy fahimbañañe ho sarimbo.
18 According to their deeds, accordingly he will repay, wrath to his adversaries, recompense to his enemies; to the islands he will repay recompense.
Mira amo sata’ eo, ty havaha’e: Fiforoforoañe amo malaiñe Azeo, Fañondroke amo rafelahi’eo; Fañavahañe amo tokonoseo.
19 So shall they fear the name of YHWH from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun; for he will come as a rushing stream, which the breath of YHWH drives.
Izay ty añeveña’ o tahandrefañeo ty tahina’ Iehovà, i enge’ey, boak’ am-panjirihan’ andro añe; fa hanao vovòn-tsorotombake ty hankàñe, hasio’ ty kofò’ Iehovà.
20 "A Redeemer will come from Zion, and he will turn away transgression from Jacob," says YHWH.
Le hitotsak’ e Tsione ty mpijebañe ho amo mpiamboho fiolàñe am’ Iakobeo, hoe t’Iehovà.
21 "As for me, this is my covenant with them," says YHWH. "My Spirit who is on you, and my words which I have put in your mouth, shall not depart out of your mouth, nor out of the mouth of your children, nor out of the mouth of your children's children," says YHWH, "from now on and forever."
Aa naho Izaho, le zao ty fañinako am’ iereo, hoe t’Iehovà: Ty Troko ama’o naho o tsara najoko am-palie’oo, ro tsy hienga am-palie’o, ndra am-palie’ o tiri’oo, ndra am-palie’ o tariran-tiri’oo, henane zao naho nainai’e tsy modo, hoe t’Iehovà.
