< Isaiah 13 >
1 The burden of Babylon that Isaiah son of Amoz hath seen:
Nibekoe’ Iesaià ana’ i Amotse i Bavele amy nioni’ey.
2 'On a high mountain lift ye up an ensign, Raise the voice to them, wave the hand, And they go in to the openings of nobles.
Ampitroaro viloñe am-bohits’abo ey, ipoñafo feo, mañelahelà fitañe, himoaha’ iareo an-dalam-bein-droandriañe ao.
3 I have given charge to My sanctified ones, Also I have called My mighty ones for Mine anger, Those rejoicing at Mine excellency.'
Fa liniliko o neferakoo naho kinoiko o manjofakoo, o mahimbañe naho rototseo ty amy habosehakoy.
4 A voice of a multitude in the mountains, A likeness of a numerous people, A voice of noise from the kingdoms of nations who are gathered, Jehovah of Hosts inspecting a host of battle!
Inay ty rehoreho am-bohitse eñe, hoe ondaty mitozantozañe! Inao ty fikoraha’ ty fitontona’ o fifehea’ o kilakila ‘ndatio! Tehafe’ Iehovà’ i Màroy o valobohòkeo hihotakotake.
5 They are coming in from a land afar off, From the end of the heavens, Jehovah and the instruments of His indignation, To destroy all the land.
Boak’ an-tsietoitane añe iereo, boak’ am-pigadoña’ i likerañey añe, —Iehovà, naho o fialiam-pifombo’eo— handrotsake i tane iabiy.
6 Howl ye, for near [is] the day of Jehovah, As destruction from the Mighty it cometh.
Mangololoiha; fa antitotse ty andro’ Iehovà; toe fandrotsahañe boak’ amy El-Sadai ty hivotraha’e;
7 Therefore, all hands do fail, And every heart of man doth melt.
Hene higebañe amy zao o fitañeo, vaho songa hitranake ty arofo’ ondaty.
8 And they have been troubled, Pains and pangs they take, As a travailing woman they are pained, A man at his friend they marvel, The appearance of flames — their faces!
Hangebahebake iereo; hamihiñe iareo ty hativontivoñe naho ty fisintosintoñe; le hanahake ty fitsongoan-ampela ty fanaintaiña’ iareo; ho veren-draha hifampitorìtotse; ho tarehe mibelabela-afo ty lahara’ iareo.
9 Lo, the day of Jehovah doth come, Fierce, with wrath, and heat of anger, To make the land become a desolation, Yea, its sinning ones He destroyeth from it.
Inao, antitotse ty andro’ Iehovà, hasarerahañe, filoroloro naho fifombo miforoforo, hampangotomomoke i taney, vaho hamongotse o lo-tsereke ama’eo.
10 For the stars of the heavens, and their constellations, Cause not their light to shine, Darkened hath been the sun in its going out, And the moon causeth not its light to come forth.
Le tsy hañomey ty hazavà’e o vasian-dikerañeo naho o fitoboroña’eo, ho maieñe i àndroy te manjirike, vaho tsy hampaviahe’ i volañey ty hazavà’e.
11 And I have appointed on the world evil, And on the wicked their iniquity, And have caused to cease the excellency of the proud, And the excellency of the terrible I make low.
Ho liloveko ty tane toy ty amo hakeo’ iareoo, o tsy vokatseo ty amo tahi’ iareoo, le haziko ty firengevoha’ o mpiebotsebotseo, vaho hazevoko ambane ty fireñeta’ o mpamorekekeo.
12 I make man more rare than fine gold, And a common man than pure gold of Ophir.
Hanoeko loho sarotse ta ty volamena hiringiri’e t’indaty; le ambone’ ty vongam-bolamena’ i Ofirey ondatio.
13 Therefore the heavens I cause to tremble, And the earth doth shake from its place, In the wrath of Jehovah of Hosts, And in a day of the heat of his anger.
Aa le hampiezeñezeñeko o likerañeo, naho hahifikifike tsy ho amy toe’ey ty tane toy, ty ami’ty fifombo’ Iehovà’ i Màroy, amy andron-kaviñera’e miloroloroy.
14 And it hath been, as a roe driven away, And as a flock that hath no gatherer, Each unto his people — they turn, And each unto his land — they flee.
Ho tondroke amy zay t’ie hanahake ty farasy rinoake naho ty añondry tsy amam-pamory sindre milay mb’an-tane’e mb’eo, songa himpoly mb’am’ondati’eo.
15 Every one who is found is thrust through, And every one who is added falleth by sword.
Ho tomboheñe iaby ze zoeñe, vaho hene hampikorovohem-pibara ze tsinepake.
16 And their sucklings are dashed to pieces before their eyes, Spoiled are their houses, and their wives lain with.
Ho demodemoheñe añatrefam- pihaino’iareo o anak’ajaja’ iareoo; ho kopaheñe ty anjomba’ iareo, vaho ho vahorañe ty rakemba’ iareo.
17 Lo, I am stirring up against them the Medes, Who silver esteem not, And gold — they delight not in it.
Eka, ho troboheko am’ iareo o nte-Madaio, o tsy mañaom-bolafotio; ndra volamena tsy ifalea’e.
18 And bows dash young men to pieces, And the fruit of the womb they pity not, On sons their eye hath no pity.
Ho trofatrofahem-pale o ajalahio; tsy ho ferenaiña’ iareo ty vokan-koviñe; tsy ho tretrezem-pihaino’e o ajajao.
19 And Babylon, the beauty of kingdoms, The glory, the excellency of the Chaldeans, Hath been as overthrown by God, With Sodom and with Gomorrah.
I Bavele amy zao, i volonahe’ o fifeheañeoy, i fisengea’ o nte-Kasdio fanjakay: le hanahake ty fandrotsahan’Añahare i Sedome naho i Amorà.
20 She doth not sit for ever, Nor continueth unto many generations, Nor doth Arab pitch tent there, And shepherds lie not down there.
Le lia’e tsy ho amam-pimoneñe, vaho tsy hañialo ao o tariratse mifandimbeo; tsy hañoren-kivoho eo t’i nte-Arabe, tsy hamahetse goloboñe ao o mpiarakeo.
21 And Ziim have lain down there, And full have been their houses of howlings, And dwelt there have daughters of an ostrich, And goats do skip there.
Toe ho fandrea’ o fanalokeo; ho àtseke ty ontsoñontsoñe o anjomba’ iareoo, himoneñe ao o voron-tsatrañeo, vaho hitsinjake ao o lolo miogogoo.
22 And Aiim have responded in his forsaken habitations, And dragons in palaces of delight, And near to come [is] her time, And her days are not drawn out!
Hañaolo añ’anjomba-hara’ iareo ao o maràmboloo naho o amboa sirasirao an-toe’ iareo fanjakao; fa antitotse ty amotoañañe aze, vaho tsy haesoñe o andro’eo.
