< Isaiah 60 >

1 [You people of] Jerusalem [PRS], stand up! Yahweh has done glorious things for you, and he has acted powerfully for you; so show others that he is very great!
Miongaha, miloeloea; fa totsake o hazava’oo fa nanjirik’ ama’o ty enge’ Iehovà.
2 [But spiritual] darkness has covered [all the other people-groups on] the earth, complete darkness, but Yahweh will show you how great he is, and other people will also see it.
Toe hanaroñe ty tane toy ty hamoromoroñañe naho amo kilakila ondatio ty ieñe ngeo’e, fe hitosàke ama’o t’Iehovà vaho ho oniñe ama’o ty enge’e.
3 By seeing what he has done for you, [people of all] people-groups will see that he is very great, and kings will come to see the wonderful things that have happened to you.
Hañavelo mb’amo hazava’oo o kilakila ondatio, naho mb’ami’ty fireandream-panjiriha’o o mpanjakao.
4 [Yahweh says], “Look around and you will see the people who will be returning from (exile/countries to which they have been forced to go)! Your sons will come from distant countries; others will carry your [little] daughters home.
Ampiandrao mb’eo mb’eo o fihaino’oo, le mahaoniña, hene mifanontoñe, mivovotse mb’ama’o mb’eo boak’e tsietoitane añe o ana-dahi’oo, vaho hotroñe’ o mpiatrak’ azeo o anak’ ampela’oo.
5 When you look at this happening, you will be very joyful [DOU], because people will bring valuable goods to you [from all around the world]. They will bring in ships valuable things from [many] nations.
Ho oni’o amy zao naho haviake, hitepotepo vaho hienatse ty arofo’o; Fa hasese ama’o ty havokara’ i riakey, hitotsake ama’o ty vara’ o fifeheañeo.
6 People will [also] bring valuable goods to you on herds/caravans of camels: Camels from the Midian and Ephah [areas of northern Arabia]. And from Sheba [in southern Arabia] they will come, bringing gold and frankincense; they will all come to praise [me], Yahweh.
Handrakotse’ azo ty rameva añ’aleale; hikararake boake Seba añe o rameva tora’ i Midiane naho Eifàeo ro hanese volamena naho rame, hitalily ty enge’ Iehovà.
7 They will bring flocks [of sheep and goats] from Kedar [in northern Arabia and give them] to you. [They will bring] [PRS] rams from Nebaioth for you [to sacrifice] on my altars, and I will accept them [happily]. [At that time] I will cause my temple to be very beautifully decorated.
Sindre hatontoñe ama’o ze lia-rai’ i Kedare, songa hitoroñe azo ty añondrilahi’ i Nebaiote, hionjom-b’an’ kitreliko mb’eo fa mañeva; ho rengèko ty akibam-bolonaheko.
8 And what are those things that are moving swiftly like [SIM] clouds? They resemble [SIM] doves [returning] to their nests.
Ia o mitiliñe hoe rahoñeo? hoe deho mamonje o traño’eo.
9 But they are really ships from Tarshish that are bringing your people back here. When your people come, they will bring with them [all] the valuable possessions that they have acquired, and [they will do that] to honor [me], Yahweh, your God, the Holy One of Israel, because I will have greatly honored you.
Toe handiñe ahy o tokonoseo, naho hiaolo hinday o ana-dahi’oo boake lavitse añe o sambo’ i Tarsosio, reketse ty volafoti’iareo vaho ty volamena’iareo, mb’amy tahina’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’o, naho mb’amy Masi’ Israeley, fa ie ro hanolotse’ engeñe ama’o.
10 Foreigners will [come and] rebuild the walls of your [cities], and their kings will serve/help you. Although I punished you because I was angry with you, these things will happen now because I will act mercifully toward you because I am kind.
Harafi’ o renetaneo o kijoli’oo, naho hiatrak’azo o mpanjaka’eo; toe linafako an-kabosehan-drehe, fe am-pañosihañe ty niferenaiñako.
11 The gates of your [cities] will be open during the day and [also] during the night, in order that people will be able to bring into your cities valuable things from [many] countries, with their kings being led to you in the processions.
Hisokake nainai’e o lalam-bei’oo, tsy harindriñe handro ndra hale, hañendesa’ ondaty ama’o ty vara’ o kilakila’ ndatio, vaho hivovora’ o mpanjaka’eo.
12 And the kingdoms and nations whose [people] refuse to allow you to rule them will be completely destroyed [DOU].
Hirotsake ty fifeheañe naho ze famelehañe tsy mitoroñe azo; eka ho vata’e fianto i fifeheañe rezay.
13 The glorious/beautiful things in Lebanon will be brought to you— [lumber from] cypress [trees] and fir [trees] and pine [trees]— to be used to make my temple beautiful. When that is done, my temple [MTY] will [truly] be glorious!
Homb’ama’o mb’eo ty volonahe’ i Lebanone, o mendoraveñeo, o harandrantoo, o mañario, naho o kintsiñeo, hampisomontia’ iareo i toeko miavakey; le hanoeko fanjàka ty atimpaheko.
14 The descendants of those who (oppressed you/treated you cruelly) will come and bow down to you; those who despised you will prostrate themselves in front of your feet. They will say that your city on Zion Hill is the City of Yahweh, where the Holy One of Israel lives.
Hidrakadrakake mb’ama’o mb’eo ty ana’ o nampisoañe azoo, hibokoke an-dela-pandia’o eo o nanìtse azoo; vaho hanoa’ iereo ty hoe: ty rova’ Iehovà, ty Tsione’ i Masi’ Israeley.
15 Previously everyone hated you and ignored you, but now your [city] will be majestic/honored forever; and [I will cause you to be] joyful forever.
Aa kanao naforintseñe naho ni-falai’ ondaty irehe, vaho tsy nirangaeñe, le hanoeko fiaintane nainai’e, hafaleañe tariratse an-tariratse.
16 People of all nations and their kings will gladly bring [MET] their wealth to you. And [when that happens], you will realize that I truly am Yahweh, the one who saves you and rescues you [from your enemies], and that I am the mighty one to whom you Israeli people belong.
Ho riote’ areo ty ronono’ o fifeheañeo hinono am-patroam-panjaka vaho ho fohi’o te Izaho Iehovà ro Mpandrombak’ azo, naho Izaho Tsitongerè’ Iakobe ro Mpijebañe azo.
17 Instead of [metals that are not valuable, like] bronze and iron, I will bring to you silver and gold. Instead of wood and stones, I will bring you bronze and iron [for your buildings]. There will be peace in your country, and your rulers will do what is fair/just.
Hindesako volamena hasolo ty torisìke, naho torisìke hasolo ty hatae, naho viñe fa tsy vato; hanoeko fierañerañañe o mpifehe’oo, vaho havantañañe o mpizaka’oo.
18 People in your country will no longer act violently, and people will no longer destroy your land and cause it to become desolate/ruined. The people in the city will be safe, and everyone there will praise me [MTY].
Tsy ho rey an-taneko ao ka ty hotakotake, ndra fangoakoahañe ndra fangomokomohañe am-po fahe’o ao; fa hatao’o ty hoe Fandrombahañe o kijoli’oo, naho fandrengeañe o lalam-beio.
19 And you will no longer need the sun and moon to give you light, because [I], Yahweh, will give you more light [than the sun and moon]; I will be a glorious light for you forever.
Tsy i àndroy ka ty hitsavavàk’ ama’o te handro, vaho tsy ty hadorisa’ i volañey ty himilemiletse ama’o; fa ­hireandreañe ama’o nainai’e t’Iehovà, naho ho enge’o t’i Andrianañahare.
20 [It will seem as though] the sun and moon will always be shining [LIT], because [I], Yahweh, will be an everlasting light for you. You will never again be sad [because of things that happen to you].
Le lia’e tsy hiroñe i àndroy, naho tsy hisitake ka i volañey; fa Iehovà ty ho failo’o nainai’e, vaho ho modo o androm-pandalà’oo.
21 Your people will all be righteous, and they will occupy the land forever, because I myself have put you there [like people plant trees] [MET] in order that you will show others that I am very great.
Hene ho vantañe ondati’oo ho lova’ iareo nainai’e ty tane; ie singa namboleko, ty satan-tañako, handrengeañ’ Ahiko.
22 At that time, the [groups that are] very small now will become [very large] clans, and small clans will become great nations. [All those things will happen because], I, Yahweh, will cause them to happen at the right time.”
Hinjare arivo ty tsitso’e, naho fifeheañe jabajaba ty kede; Izaho Iehovà ty hanaentaeñe aze ami’ty andro’e.
