< Isaiah 59 >
1 Lo, the hand of Jehovah Hath not been shortened from saving, Nor heavy his ear from hearing.
Toe tsy nitomoreñe ty fità’ Iehovà tsy haharombake, mbore tsy mavesatse i ravembia’ey, tsy hahajanjiñe;
2 But your iniquities have been separating Between you and your God, And your sins have hidden The Presence from you — from hearing.
Fe nampisitake anahareo aman’Añahare’ areo o tahi’ areoo naho naeta’ o hakeo’ areoo amy lahara’ey nahareo, tsy hahajanjiñe.
3 For your hands have been polluted with blood, And your fingers with iniquity, Your lips have spoken falsehood, Your tongue perverseness doth mutter.
Fa vinetan-dio o fità’oo, naho haratiañe o rambom-pità’oo; fa nireha-bande o soñi’oo, vaho miñeoñeon-kalò-tserehañe o lela’oo.
4 There is none calling in righteousness, And there is none pleading in faithfulness, Trusting on emptiness, and speaking falsehood, Conceiving perverseness, and bearing iniquity.
Tsy eo ty manisý an-kavañonañe, tsy eo ty mihalaly an-kahiti’e; miato an-kafoahañe, naho mivolam-bande, mampiareñe fikitrofañe iareo, mampiboloañe haloloañe.
5 Eggs of a viper they have hatched, And webs of a spider they weave, Whoso is eating their eggs doth die, And the crushed hatcheth a viper.
Ie mañatoly atolim-pañaneñe, mandrare fararotse; mate ty mitsopeke o atoli’eo, vaho ipoñafan-dapetake ze foy.
6 Their webs become not a garment, Nor do they cover themselves with their works, Their works [are] works of iniquity, And a deed of violence [is] in their hands.
Tsy hanoen-tsaroñe o fararo’eo, vaho tsy ho sikina’ondaty o tolom-pità’eo; toe satan-karatiañe ty fifanehafa’ iareo, am-pità’ iareo ty tolom-piaroteñe.
7 Their feet to evil do run, And they haste to shed innocent blood, Their thoughts [are] thoughts of iniquity, Spoiling and destruction [are] in their highways.
Milay mb’an-kaloloañe mb’eo ty fandia’ iareo, naho malisa hampiori-dio màliñe; vetsevetse raty ty fitsakorea’ iareo, an-dala’ iareo ty fangoakoahañe naho ty fandrotsahañe.
8 A way of peace they have not known, And there is no judgment in their paths, Their paths they have made perverse for themselves, No treader in it hath known peace.
Nofi’ iareo ty lalam-pifampilongoañe, vaho tsy vantañe o oloñolo’ iareoo; tsy tendreke fañanintsiñe ze mizilike ao.
9 Therefore hath judgment been far from us, And righteousness reacheth us not, We wait for light, and lo, darkness, For brightness — in thick darkness we go,
Toli-ndra lavits’antika ty havantañañe, vaho tsy mahatratse an-tika ty hatò; mipay hazavàñe tika, fe hehe t’ie hamoromoroñañe.
10 We feel like the blind [for] the wall, Yea, as without eyes we feel, We have stumbled at noon as at twilight, In desolate places as the dead.
Tsapatsapaen-tika i rindriñey manahake te goa, eka mitsapatsapa hoe tsy amam-pihaino; mitotohitse an-tsipinde-mena hoe am-palipalitsieñe; itika hoe lolo an-toetse maieñe ao.
11 We make a noise as bears — all of us, And as doves we coo sorely; We wait for judgment, and there is none, For salvation — it hath been far from us.
Mañaolo hoe dobe tika, mangololoike hoe deho; mipay ty vantañe fa tsy eo; ty fandrombahañe, fe mitòtse aman-tika.
12 For our transgressions have been multiplied before Thee, And our sins have testified against us, For our transgressions [are] with us, And our iniquities — we have known them.
Fa mitoabotse añatrefa’o eo o fiolà’aio, mbore manisý anay o tahi’aio; toe aolo’ay eo o fandilara’aio, vaho fohi’ay o ota-fali’aio:
13 Transgressing, and lying against Jehovah, And removing from after our God, Speaking oppression and apostasy, Conceiving and uttering from the heart Words of falsehood.
mandilatse naho mitety Iehovà miamboho aman’Añahare’ay tsy mañorike Aze, mivolam-pamorekekeañe naho hamengohañe, mikinia naho mañakatse entan-dremborake boak’an-troke ao.
14 And removed backward is judgment, And righteousness afar off standeth, For truth hath been feeble in the street, And straightforwardness is not able to enter,
Naolake ami’ty hatò, midisa-voly naho mijohañe eñe ty havañonañe; mitsikapy an-gadagadañe ey ty fahiti’e, vaho tsy mete mizilik’ ao ty havantañañe.
15 And the truth is lacking, And whoso is turning aside from evil, Is making himself a spoil. And Jehovah seeth, and it is evil in His eyes, That there is no judgment.
Milesa ty havañonañe, ze mienga ty haratiañe manao ty vata’e ho injaheñe; vazoho’ Iehovà, le heje’e t’ie po-kavantañañe.
16 And He seeth that there is no man, And is astonished that there is no intercessor, And His own arm giveth salvation to Him, And His righteousness — it sustained Him.
Nioni’e te tsy eo ty ondaty, vaho nilatsa t’ie tsy am-pañalañàlañe; aa le i fità’ey ty nandrombake ho Aze; i havantaña’ey ty nanozañe Aze.
17 And He putteth on righteousness as a breastplate, And an helmet of salvation on His head, And He putteth on garments of vengeance [for] clothing, And is covered, as [with] an upper-robe, [with] zeal.
Niombea’e ty havañonañe hoe sarom-by naho añambone’e eo ty sabakam-pandrombahañe; nisaroñe lambam-pamaleam-pate ho fisaro’e, vaho nisaravy fahimbañañe ho sarimbo.
18 According to deeds — so He repayeth. Fury to His adversaries, [their] deed to His enemies, To the isles [their] deed He repayeth.
Mira amo sata’ eo, ty havaha’e: Fiforoforoañe amo malaiñe Azeo, Fañondroke amo rafelahi’eo; Fañavahañe amo tokonoseo.
19 And they fear from the west the name of Jehovah, And from the rising of the sun — His honour, When come in as a flood doth an adversary, The Spirit of Jehovah hath raised an ensign against him.
Izay ty añeveña’ o tahandrefañeo ty tahina’ Iehovà, i enge’ey, boak’ am-panjirihan’ andro añe; fa hanao vovòn-tsorotombake ty hankàñe, hasio’ ty kofò’ Iehovà.
20 And come to Zion hath a redeemer, Even to captives of transgression in Jacob, An affirmation of Jehovah.
Le hitotsak’ e Tsione ty mpijebañe ho amo mpiamboho fiolàñe am’ Iakobeo, hoe t’Iehovà.
21 And I — this [is] My covenant with them, said Jehovah, My Spirit that [is] on thee, And My words that I have put in thy mouth, Depart not from thy mouth, And from the mouth of thy seed, And from the mouth of thy seed's seed, said Jehovah, From henceforth unto the age!
Aa naho Izaho, le zao ty fañinako am’ iereo, hoe t’Iehovà: Ty Troko ama’o naho o tsara najoko am-palie’oo, ro tsy hienga am-palie’o, ndra am-palie’ o tiri’oo, ndra am-palie’ o tariran-tiri’oo, henane zao naho nainai’e tsy modo, hoe t’Iehovà.
