Isaiah 29
1 Alas for Ariel, Ariel, The city against which, David encamped, —Add ye a year to a year. Let the festivals, come round;
Hekoheko ry Ariele, ry Ariele, ty rova nitobea’ i Davide! Tovoño taoñe an-taoñe, ampitoitoio o sabadidakeo!
2 Yet will I bring Ariel into straits, —And she shall become a bewailing and wailing, Yea she shall become to me a veritable Hearth of God.
Le handesako haemberañe ty Ariele, le ho fandalàñe naho firovetañe ty ao, ie hanahake Ariele amako.
3 And I will encamp round about against thee, —And lay siege against thee with a fort, And raise against thee siege-works;
Le ho arikatohako irehe; ho arikoboñako votre abo, hatroako ama’o ty rafi-panameañe
4 And thou shalt be brought low—Out of the earth, shalt thou speak, And out of the dust, shalt thou lower thine utterance, —And as one that hath a familiar spirit, Out of the earth, shall come thy voice, And out of the dust, thy speech shall chirp;
Le hafotsak’ ambane irehe, hisaontsy boak’an-tane ao, hirik’an-deboke itsalalampa’o ao ty hipetropetroha’o, hanahake ty feon’ angatse boak’ an-tane ao ty antseñàntseña’o, vaho higeongeoñe boak’ an-demboke ao ty filañona’o.
5 Then shall be as fine dust the multitude of thy foreigners, —And as chaff that passeth away, the multitude of tyrants; And it shall come to pass, in a twinkling, Suddenly,
Fa hanahake ty deboke mibò o rafelahi’o maroo, le hoe kafo mihofa o mampangebahebake tsifotofotoo— eka, hafetsak’ aniany, ami’ty manao zao.
6 From Yahweh of hosts, shalt thou be visited, With thunder, and with earthquake and a great noise, hurricane and storm and flame of fire devouring;
Hitilike anahareo t’Iehovà’ i Màroy reketse hotroke naho fanginikinihañe, naho fitromoroñañe, naho tangololahy, naho tiobey vaho ty lel-afo mamorototo.
7 And it shall be like the dream of a night vision, With the multitude of all the nations who have been making war against Ariel, —Even with all who have been making war against her and her stronghold and who have been laying siege to her;
Le ty valobohò’ o fifeheañe iaby mialy amy Arieleo, o mifandrapake ama’eo, naho o rafem-pañarikatohañe azeo, naho o mampalovilovy azeo, le hanahake ty nofy, ty aroñaroñe an-kaleñe;
8 Yea it shall be As when the hungry man dreameth and lo! he is eating, But he awaketh, and his soul, is empty, Or as when the thirsty man dreameth and lo! he is drinking, But he awaketh and lo! he is faint and his soul, is craving, So, shall it be with the multitude of all the nations, that have come forth to war against Mount Zion.
Le ho hambañe ami’ty saliko mañinofy, heheke t’ie mikama, f’ie tsekake, mbe mikolempa ty tro’e; naho ty fañinofisa’ ty taliñiereñe, heheke t’ie minon-drano, ie mibarakaoke hehe te mbe miheahea, tsy afake i harandrano’ey, hanahake izay ty valobohò’ o fifeheañe iaby haname i vohi-Tsioneio.
9 Stand ye stock still and stare, Besmear your eyes and be blind, —They are drunken but not with wine, They reel, but not with strong drink;
Mijimejimeña naho midebedebea, migoà vaho mitambara ho fèy! jike iereo, fa tsy an-divay! mivembeñe fa tsy an-toake!
10 For Yahweh, hath poured out upon you, a spirit of deep sleep, Yea hath tightly shut your eyes—the prophets, —And, your heads—the seers, hath he covered,
Fa nadoa’ Iehovà ama’ areo ty fañahy mampilañake an-droro; fa nakipe’e ty fihaino’ areo, (o mpitokio); naho fa kinolopo’e ty añambone’ areo (o mpioniñeo).
11 And so all vision hath become unto you as the words of a writing that is sealed, Which is delivered unto one acquainted with writing, saying, Pray thee read this, And he saith, I cannot, for it is sealed;
I hene aroñaroñey le ho ama’areo hoe tsara am-boke linite, ie atolo’areo ami’ty mahay mamaky, ami’ty hoe: Ehe, vakio toy, le hoe ty hatoi’e: Tsy mete fa linite.
12 And then the writing is delivered to one unacquainted with writing, saying, Pray thee read this, And he saith I am not acquainted with writing.
Le ie atolo’areo ami’ty tsy mahay, ami’ty hoe: Vakio toy, le hanoa’e ty hoe: Tsy mahay iraho.
13 Wherefore My Lord hath said, —Because this people, hath drawn near with their mouth, And with their lips, have honoured me, But their heart, have they moved far from me, And so their reverence of me hath become A commandment of men in which they have been schooled,
Hoe t’i Talè: Kanao mañarine ahy am-palie, ondaty retoañe naho miasy ahy am-pivimby, ie ahanka’ iareo lavits’ahy o arofo’iareoo, vaho lili’ ondaty avao ty añoha’iareo ho fañeveñañe amako;
14 Therefore, behold me! again dealing wonderfully with this people, doing wonderfully a wonderful thing, —So shall perish, the wisdom of their wise men, And the intelligence of their intelligent men, shall vanish!
Inao, hanoeko raha mampañeveñe indraike ondatio: halatsañe mahadaba; ho mongotse ty hihi’ o mahihi’ iareoo naho hikafitse ty hilala’ o mahilala’ iareoo.
15 Alas! for them who would fain have been too deep for Yahweh by giving secret counsel, —and therefore in the dark, have been their doings, and they have said Who can see us? and—Who can understand us?
Hankàñe amo mañetake ty fikinià’iareo laleke tsy ho oni’ Iehovào, amo mikitroke raha añ’ieñeio, naho manao ty hoe: Ia ty mahavazoho’ antika? ndra: Ia ty maharofoanañe antika?
16 Your perverseness! As if like clay, the potter could be reckoned; For shall, the thing made say of him that made it, he made me not? Or hath the thing fashioned ever said of him that fashioned it, He hath no understanding.
Hete! akore ty hamengoha’ areo! Hasiñeñe manahake i mpanao valàñe taney hao i litsakey? hanao ty hoe amy namboatsey hao i namboareñey: Tsy ihe ty namboatse ahy. Ndra hanao amy nandrafitse azey ty hoe: Tsy mahilala irehe.
17 Is it not yet a very little while, And Lebanon shall be turned, into garden land, —And garden land, for a forest, be reckoned?
Tsy aniany avao hao te havalike ho tonda kobokara ty Lebanone, vaho hatao ala i teteke kobokaray?
18 Therefore, in that day, shall the deaf hear the words of a book, —And out of gloom and darkness, the eyes of the blind shall see;
Amy andro zay, ho janjiñe’ o kareñeñeo ty tsara am-boke ao, le boak’ami’ty fimoromoroña’e naho ty fanalinjoña’e ao ty hahaisaha’ ty fihaino’ o feio.
19 And again shall the humbled in Yahweh, have joy, —And the needy of mankind in the Holy One of Israel, exult;
Hañonjon-karebehañe am’ Iehovà o tretram-poo, naho handia taroba amy Masi’Israeley o rarake am’ondatio.
20 For the tyrant, hath vanished, And the scoffer, is no more, Yea cut off are all who watch for iniquity: —
Fa hihelañe añe i mpitrotrofiakey, naho hijihetse i mpañìnjey, toe fonga haitoañe o mahimbam-panao ratio;
21 Who bring a man into condemnation with a rumour, And for him that decideth in the gate, lay a snare, —And have driven away, for a thing of nought, one who was righteous.
O mampandilatse ondaty an-tsaontsy, naho mamandrike i mizaka an-dalam-beiy, vaho mikatramo ty vantañe an-dreha-borosodeo.
22 Therefore, Thus, saith Yahweh, concerning the house of Jacob, [even he saith it] who redeemed Abraham, —Not now, shall, Jacob turn pale, And, not now, shall their faces whiten;
Aa le hoe t’Iehovà mpijebañe i Avrahame, ty amy anjomba’ Iakobey: Tsy ho salatse t’Iakobe henane zao, vaho tsy hiko-mavo i lahara’ey,
23 For, when he seeth his children the work of my hands, in his midst, They will hallow my Name, —Yea they will hallow the Holy One of Jacob, And the God of Israel, will they regard with awe.
Ie isa’ o ana’eo o satan-tañako añivo’eo, le havahe’iereo ty añarako Eka! hiasia’ iareo i Masi’ Iakobey, vaho hañeveñe amy Andrianañahare’ Israele.
24 Then will they who erred in spirit comprehend, And the murmurers, accept instruction.
Le hahilala o mandilatse an-trokeo, vaho hañaom-pañanarañe o miñeoñeoñeo.
