Isaiah 51
1 “Listen to me, you who follow after righteousness, you who seek the LORD. Look to the rock you were cut from, and to the quarry you were dug from.
Mihanoa Ahy, ianareo izay miezaka mitady fahamarinana, dia izay mitady an’ i Jehovah: Tsarovy ny vatolampy izay nakana anareo sy ny ati-lavaka izay nihadiana anareo.
2 Look to Abraham your father, and to Sarah who bore you; for when he was but one I called him, I blessed him, and made him many.
Eny, tsarovy Abrahama rainareo sy Saraha, izay niteraka anareo; fa fony mbola tokana izy, dia nantsoiko sy notahiko ary nohamaroiko.
3 For the LORD has comforted Zion. He has comforted all her waste places, and has made her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of the LORD. Joy and gladness will be found in them, thanksgiving, and the voice of melody.
Fa Jehovah mampionona an’ i Ziona; Eny, mampionona izay rava rehetra ao Izy Ka manao ny efitra ao ho tahaka an’ i Edena. Ary ny tany foana ao ho tahaka ny sahan’ i Jehovah; Hafaliana sy haravoana no hita ao mbamin’ ny fisaorana sy ny feo fiderana.
4 “Listen to me, my people; and hear me, my nation, for a law will go out from me, and I will establish my justice for a light to the peoples.
Mihainea Ahy, ry vahoakako, ary atongilano amiko ny sofinareo, ry oloko; fa hisy lalàna hivoaka avy amiko, ary ny fitsipiko dia hampitoeriko ho fanazavana ny firenena.
5 My righteousness is near. My salvation has gone out, and my arms will judge the peoples. The islands will wait for me, and they will trust my arm.
Akaiky ny fahamarinako, efa nivoaka ny famonjeko, ary ny sandriko no hitsara ny firenena; izaho no hantenain’ ny nosy, ary ny sandriko no andrasany.
6 Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look at the earth beneath; for the heavens will vanish away like smoke, and the earth will wear out like a garment. Its inhabitants will die in the same way, but my salvation will be forever, and my righteousness will not be abolished.
Andrandrao ho amin’ ny lanitra ny masonareo, ary jereo ny tany ambany; fa ny lanitra ho levona tahaka ny setroka, ary tany ho tahaky ny lamba mangarahara, ary ny mponina ao dia ho faty tampoka; fa ny famonjena kosa haharitra mandrakizay, ary ny fahamarinako tsy mba ho rava.
7 “Listen to me, you who know righteousness, the people in whose heart is my law. Don’t fear the reproach of men, and don’t be dismayed at their insults.
Mihainoa ahy, ianareo izay mahalala ny fahamarinana, dia ianao, ry firenena izay manana ny lalàko ao am-ponao; aza matahotra ny latsa ataon’ ny zanak’ olombelona, na manahy noho ny faharatsiany.
8 For the moth will eat them up like a garment, and the worm will eat them like wool; but my righteousness will be forever, and my salvation to all generations.”
Fa ny kalalao hihinana azy tahaka ny fihinan-damba, ary lolo fotsy hihinana azy tahaka ny fihinam-bolon’ ondry; fa ny fahamarinako haharitra mandrakizay, ary famonjena hihatra amin’ ny taranaka fara-mandimby.
9 Awake, awake, put on strength, arm of the LORD! Awake, as in the days of old, the generations of ancient times. Isn’t it you who cut Rahab in pieces, who pierced the monster?
Mifohaza, mifohaza, ry sandrin’ i Jehovah, mitafia hery! Mifohaza tahaka ny tamin’ ny andro fahiny! dia tamin’ ny taranaka lasa ela. Tsy Hianao va Ilay nitetitetika an-dRahaba sy nitomboka ny dragona?
10 Isn’t it you who dried up the sea, the waters of the great deep; who made the depths of the sea a way for the redeemed to pass over?
Tsy Hianao va Ilay nahamaina ny ranomasina, dia ny rano ao amin’ ny lalina indrindra, ka nanao ny ranomasina lalina ho lalana halehan’ ny navotana?
11 Those ransomed by the LORD will return, and come with singing to Zion. Everlasting joy shall be on their heads. They will obtain gladness and joy. Sorrow and sighing shall flee away.
Eny, ny navotan’ i Jehovah hiverina ka hankany Ziona amin’ ny fihobiana, ary ny fifaliana mandrakizay no ho eny an-dohany; hahazo fifaliana mandrakizay no ho eny an-dohany; hahazo fifaliana faharavoravoana izy, ka dia handositra ny alahelo sy ny fisentoana.
12 “I, even I, am he who comforts you. Who are you, that you are afraid of man who shall die, and of the son of man who will be made as grass?
Izaho dia Izaho no mpampionona anareo, koa nahoana ianao no dia matahotra ny zanak’ olombelona mety maty sy ny zanak’ olona hatao tahaka ny ahitra
13 Have you forgotten the LORD your Maker, who stretched out the heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth? Do you live in fear continually all day because of the fury of the oppressor, when he prepares to destroy? Where is the fury of the oppressor?
ka manadino an’ i Jehovah, Mpanao anao, izay namelatra ny lanitra sy nanorina ny tany, sady matahotra lalandava mandritra ny andro ianao noho ny fahatezeran’ ny mpampahory, raha mikendry hamono izy? Fa aiza intsony izay fahatezeran’ ny mpampahory?
14 The captive exile will speedily be freed. He will not die and go down into the pit. His bread won’t fail.
Izay mitanondrika dia ho afaka faingana; Tsy ho faty havarina ao an-davaka izy ary tsy ho diso hanina.
15 For I am the LORD your God, who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar. the LORD of Armies is his name.
Fa Izaho Jehovah no Andriamanitrao, Izay mampanonja ny ranomasina, ka dia mirohondrohona ny onjany; Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, no anarako.
16 I have put my words in your mouth and have covered you in the shadow of my hand, that I may plant the heavens, and lay the foundations of the earth, and tell Zion, ‘You are my people.’”
Ary nataoko eo am-bavanao ny teniko, ary ao amin’ ny aloky ny tanako no nanaronako anao, hanao ny lanitra sy hanorina ny tany Aho ary hanao an’ i Ziona hoe: Oloko ianao.
17 Awake, awake! Stand up, Jerusalem, you who have drunk from the LORD’s hand the cup of his wrath. You have drunken the bowl of the cup of staggering, and drained it.
Mifohaza, mifohaza, mitsangana, ry Jerosalema ô, izay efa nisotro ny kapoaky ny fahatezerana avy tamin’ ny tànan’ i Jehovah; eny, ny kapoaka gobilia mampiraikiraiky dia efa nisotroanao, ka notrohinao mbamin’ ny faikany.
18 There is no one to guide her amongst all the sons to whom she has given birth; and there is no one who takes her by the hand amongst all the sons whom she has brought up.
Tsy misy mitondra azy ny zananilahy rehetra izay naterany; ary tsy misy mitantana azy ny zananilahy rehetra izay notezainy.
19 These two things have happened to you— who will grieve with you?— desolation and destruction, and famine and the sword. How can I comfort you?
Izao zavatra roa Izao no hanjo anao (Iza no hanony ny alahelonao?): Fandravana sy fandringanana ary mosary sy sabatra, koa hataoko ahoana no fampionona anao?
20 Your sons have fainted. They lie at the head of all the streets, like an antelope in a net. They are full of the LORD’s wrath, the rebuke of your God.
Ny zanakao-lahy efa reraka, ka miapokapoka eny an-joron-dalambe rehetra eny izy, tahaka ny diera ao anatin’ ny fandrika harato eny, tahaka ny olona rakotry ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah sy ny teny mafy ataon’ Andriamanitrao.
21 Therefore now hear this, you afflicted, and drunken, but not with wine:
Koa mihainoa izao, ianao ry ilay ory sady mamo tsy amin-divay:
22 Your Lord GOD, your God who pleads the cause of his people, says, “Behold, I have taken out of your hand the cup of staggering, even the bowl of the cup of my wrath. You will not drink it any more.
Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tomponao, dia Andriamanitrao, Izay mandaha-teny ho an’ ny olony: Indro, esoriko eny an-tananao ny kapoaka mampiraikiraiky, dia ny kapoaka gobilian’ ny fahatezerako; Tsy hisotroanao intsony iny,
23 I will put it into the hand of those who afflict you, who have said to your soul, ‘Bow down, that we may walk over you;’ and you have laid your back as the ground, like a street to those who walk over.”
Fa hataoko eo an-tànan’ izay mampahory anao kosa, dia izay efa nilaza taminao hoe: Miankohofa mba hohitsahinay, ka dia nataonao ho tahaka ny tany ny tenanao sy ho tahaka ny lalambe ho an’ izay mandeha eo.
