Isaiah 24
1 Lo, Jehovah is emptying the land, And is making it waste, And hath overturned [it on] its face, And hath scattered its inhabitants.
Indro, Jehovah mahafoana ny tany ka mahalao azy ary mampihohoka azy ka manely izay mponina ao aminy.
2 And it hath been — as a people so a priest, As the servant so his master, As the maid-servant so her mistress, As the buyer so the seller, As the lender so the borrower, As the usurer so he who is lifting [it] on himself.
Koa ho sahala ihany ny hanjo ny mpisorona sy ny vahoaka, ny tompolahy sy ny mpanompolahiny, ny tompovavy sy ny mpanompovaviny, ny mpivarotra sy ny mpividy, ny mpampisambotra sy ny mpisambotra, ny mpampanàna vola sy ny mpanana vola.
3 Utterly emptied is the land, and utterly spoiled, For Jehovah hath spoken this word:
Hatao foana dia foana ny tany, ary hobaboina dia hobaboina tokoa izy, fa Jehovah no efa niteny.
4 Mourned, faded hath the land, Languished, faded hath the world, Languished have they — the high place of the people of the land.
Misaona sy malazo ny tany; Milofika sy malazo izao tontolo izao; Milofika ny lehibe indrindra amin’ ny olona etỳ an-tany.
5 And the land hath been defiled under its inhabitants, Because they have transgressed laws, They have changed a statute, They have made void a covenant age-during.
Ary ny tany dia efa voavetavetan’ ny mponina ao aminy, satria nandika ny lalàna sy nanota ny didy izy ary nivadika ny fanekena mandrakizay.
6 Therefore a curse hath consumed the land, And the inhabitants in it are become desolate, Therefore consumed have been inhabitants of the land, And few men have been left.
Ary noho izany dia ozona no mandevona ny tany, ary ny mponina ao dia valiana noho ny helony, sady voadotra ny mponina amin’ ny tany ka dia olona vitsy foana no sisa ao.
7 Mourned hath the new wine, languished the vine, Sighed have all the joyful of heart.
Misaona ny ranom-boaloboka, milofika ny taro-boaloboka, misento avokoa ilay nifaly am-po;
8 Ceased hath the joy of tabrets, Ceased hath the noise of exulting ones, Ceased hath the joy of a harp.
Mitsahatra ny firavoravoana amin’ ny ampongatapaka, tapitra ny fitabataban’ ny niravoravo; Mitsahatra ny fifaliana amin-dokanga;
9 With a song they drink not wine, Bitter is strong drink to those drinking it.
Tsy mihira eo am-pisotroan-divay intsony izy, mangidy amin’ izay misotro azy ny toaka;
10 It was broken down — a city of emptiness, Shut hath been every house from entrance.
Rava ny tanana be fikorontanana, mirindrina ny trano rehetra ka tsy azo idiran’ olona;
11 A cry over the wine [is] in out-places, Darkened hath been all joy, Removed hath been the joy of the land.
Misy fitarainana divay eny an-tsaha, tafalentika toy ny masoandro ny fifaliana rehetra; Voaroaka ny faharavoravoan’ ny tany.
12 Left in the city [is] desolation, And [with] wasting is the gate smitten.
Fahafoanana ihany no sisa ao an-tanàna, satria rava sady montsamontsana ny vavahady,
13 When thus it is in the heart of the land, In the midst of the peoples, As the compassing of the olive, As gleanings when harvest hath been finished,
Fa ao amin’ ny tany, ao amin’ ny olona, dia hisy toy ny amin’ ny fikapohana hazo oliva sy ny fitsimpontsimponam-boaloboka, rehefa tapitra ny andro fiotazana azy.
14 They — they lift up their voice, They sing of the excellency of Jehovah, They have cried aloud from the sea.
Ireo dia hanandratra ny feony ka hihoby; Noho ny fahalehibiazan’ i Jehovah dia hiantso mafy eny amin’ ny ranomasina izy hoe:
15 Therefore in prosperity honour ye Jehovah, In isles of the sea, the name of Jehovah, God of Israel.
Mankalazà an’ i Jehovah any amin’ ny tany atsinanana, dia ny anaran’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, any amin’ ny amoron-dranomasina.
16 From the skirt of the earth we heard songs, The desire of the righteous. And I say, 'Leanness [is] to me, Leanness [is] to me, woe [is] to me.' Treacherous dealers dealt treacherously, Yea, treachery, treacherous dealers dealt treacherously.
Hatrany am-paran’ ny tany no nandrenesanay hira hoe: Voninahitra ho an’ ny marina. Fa hoy izaho: Indrisy izato halevonako! Indrisy ity halevonako! Ny mpamitaka dia mamitaka; Eny, ny mpamitaka dia mamitaka fatratra.
17 Fear, and a snare, and a gin, [Are] on thee, O inhabitant of the land.
Tahotra sy longoa ary fandrika no mahazo anao, ry mponina amin’ ny tany.
18 And it hath come to pass, He who is fleeing from the noise of the fear Doth fall into the snare, And he who is coming up from the midst of the snare, Is captured by the gin, For windows on high have been opened, And shaken are foundations of the land.
Ary izay mandositra noho ny fandrenesana ny tahotra dia ho latsaka any an-davaka; Ary izay miakatra avy ao anatin’ ny lavaka dia ho voan’ ny fandrika; Fa misy varavarana mivoha any amin’ ny avo, ary mihorohoro ny fanorenan’ ny tany.
19 Utterly broken down hath been the land, Utterly broken hath been the land, Utterly moved hath been the land.
Rava dia rava ny tany; Mitresaka dia mitresaka ny tany; Mihorohoro dia mihorohoro ny tany;
20 Stagger greatly doth the land as a drunkard, And it hath been moved as a lodge, And heavy on it hath been its transgression, And it hath fallen, and addeth not to rise.
Mivembena dia mivenbena tahaka ny mamo ny tany ka mitsingevaheva toy ny fandriana mihantona; ary mitambesatra aminy ny fahadisoany, dia potraka izy ka tsy ho tafarina intsony.
21 And it hath come to pass, in that day, Jehovah layeth a charge on the host of the high place in the high place, And on the kings of the land on the land.
Ary amin’ izany andro izany dia any an-danitra no hamalian’ i Jehovah ny antokon’ ny lanitra, ary etỳ an-tany kosa ny mpanjakan’ ny tany.
22 And they have been gathered — A gathering of bound ones in a pit, And shut up they have been in a prison, And after a multitude of days are inspected.
Dia hangonina ao an-davaka tahaka ny mpifatotra ireny ka hohidiana ao an-trano-maizina, ary rehefa afaka andro maro, dia hovangiana ihany izy.
23 And confounded hath been the moon, And ashamed hath been the sun, For reigned hath Jehovah of Hosts In mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, And over-against His elders — honour!
Dia hivoara-mena ny volana, ary hivaloarika ny masoandro, fa Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, no Mpanjaka ao an-tendrombohitra Ziona sy any Jerosalema, ary eo anatrehan’ ny loholony dia misy voninahitra.
