Ezekiela 16
1 Tonga tamiko indray ny tenin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
2 Ry zanak’ olona, ampahafantaro an’ i Jerosalema ny fahavetavetany,
“Son of man, make known to Jerusalem her abominations.
3 ka ataovy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo amin’ i Jerosalema: Ny tany Kanana no nahaterahanao sy nahabe anao; Amorita no rainao, ary Hetita no reninao.
And you shall say: Thus says the Lord God to Jerusalem: Your root and your lineage is from the land of Canaan; your father was an Amorite, and your mother was a Cethite.
4 Ary ny amin’ ny nahaterahanao, dia tsy voatapaka akory ny tadim-poitrao tamin’ ny andro nahaterahanao, ary tsy voampandro tamin’ ny rano ianao, na voahosotra sira, na voahodidina lamban-jaza akory.
And when you were born, on the day of your nativity, your umbilical cord was not cut, and you were not washed with water for health, nor salted with salt, nor wrapped with cloths.
5 Tsy nisy maso niantra anao hanao izany aminao, na dia iray akory amin’ ireo zavatra ireo aza, mba hamindra fo aminao; fa nariana tany an-tsaha ianao, satria natao ho zava-maharikoriko ianao tamin’ ny andro nahaterahanao.
No eye took pity on you, so as to do even one of these things to you, out of compassion for you. Instead, you were cast upon the face of the earth, in the abjection of your soul, on the day when you were born.
6 Ary raha nandalo Aho ka nahita anao nihosinkosina teo amin’ ny rànao, dia hoy Izaho taminao, raha mbola tamin’ ny rànao ianao: Ho velona anie ianao; eny, hoy Izaho taminao, raha mbola tamin’ ny rànao ianao: Ho velona anie ianao.
But, passing by you, I saw that you were wallowing in your own blood. And I said to you, when you were in your blood: ‘Live.’ I tell you that I said to you, in your blood: ‘Live.’
7 Efa nataoko alinalina, toy ny zava-maniry any an-tsaha, ny isanao, ka nitombo sy nihalehibe ary tonga tsara tarehy tokoa ianao; naniry nono ianao sady naniry volo, nefa mbola nitanjaka sy nihanjahanja ihany
I multiplied you like the seedling of the field. And you were multiplied and became great, and you advanced and arrived at the ornament of a woman. Your breasts rose up, and your hair grew. And you were naked and full of shame.
8 Ary raha nandalo Aho ka nijery anao, dia hitako fa izay no fotoanao, dia ny fotoam-pitiavana: ary narakotro anao ny lambako, ka nosaronako ny fitanjahanao; eny, nianiana taminao Aho ka nanao fanekena taminao, hoy Jehovah Tompo, ka dia efa Ahy ianao.
And I passed by you and saw you. And behold, your time was the time of lovers. And I spread my garment over you, and I covered your disgrace. And I swore to you, and I entered into a covenant with you, says the Lord God, and you became mine.
9 Dia nampandroiko rano ianao, eny, nosasako tsara ho afaka tamin’ ny rànao, dia nohosorako diloilo.
And I washed you with water, and I cleansed you of your blood. And I anointed you with oil.
10 Notafiako lamba misoratsoratra koa ianao sy nokiraroako hoditakasy, ary nampisikiniko rongony fotsy madinika sy notafiako amparasily.
And I covered you with embroidery, and I put violet shoes upon you, and I wrapped you in fine linen, and I clothed you with delicate garments.
11 Noravahako firavaka koa ianao, ka nasiako haba ny tananao ary rojo ny vozonao
I adorned you with ornaments, and I put bracelets upon your hands and a necklace around your neck.
12 Ary nasiako kavina ny oronao sy ny sofinao ary satro-boninahitra tsara tarehy ny lohanao,
And I put gold upon your face, and earrings in your ears, and a beautiful crown upon your head.
13 ka dia niravaka volamena sy volafotsy ianao, ary rongony fotsy madinika sy amparasily ary lamba misoratsoratra ny fitafianao; koba tsara toto sy tantely ary diloilo no fihinanao; ary efa nihatsara tarehy dia nihatsara tarehy ianao sady nambinina ho miendrik’ andriana
And you were adorned with gold and silver, and you were clothed in fine linen, woven with many colors. You ate fine flour, and honey, and oil. And you became very beautiful. And you advanced to royal power.
14 Ary dia niely tany amin’ ny jentilisa aza ny lazanao noho ny hatsaran-tarehinao; fa tanteraka izany noho ny voninahitro izay nataoko taminao, hoy Jehovah Tompo.
And your renown went forth among the Gentiles, because of your beauty. For you were perfected by my beauty, which I had placed upon you, says the Lord God.
15 kanjo natoky ny hatsaran-tarehinao ianao ka nijangajanga noho ny lazanao sady nanaram-po nijangajanga tamin’ ny mpandalo rehetra, ka nafoy ho azy izany
But, having confidence in your own beauty, you fornicated in your fame. And you presented your fornication to every passer-by, so as to become his.
16 Ary nangalanao ny fitafianao, dia nanaovanao fitoerana avo ho anao ka noravahanao sora-damba, ka nijangajanga teo aminy ianao; dia zavatra izay tsy tokony hiseho na hisy akory.
And taking from your garments, you made for yourself exalted things, having sewed together disparate pieces. And you fornicated upon them, in a way that has not been done before, nor will be in the future.
17 Ary nalainao koa ny firavakao tamin’ ny volamenako sy ny volafotsiko, izay nomeko anao, dia nataonao sarin-dehilahy ho anao ka nijangajanganao;
And you took your beautiful items, made of my gold and my silver, which I gave to you, and you made for yourself images of men, and you fornicated with them.
18 nalainao koa ny fitafianao misoratsoratra ka natatinao ireo; ary ny diloiloko sy ny ditin-kazo manitro dia napetrakao teo anoloany
And you used your multicolored vestments to cover these things. And you placed my oil and my incense before them.
19 Ary ny haniko izay nomeko anao koa, dia ny koba tsara toto sy ny diloilo ary ny tantely, izay nafahako anao, dia napetrakao teo anoloan’ ireo ho hanitra ankasitrahana; teo tokoa izany, hoy Jehovah Tompo.
And my bread, which I gave to you, the fine flour, and the oil, and the honey, by which I nourished you, you placed in their sight as a sweet fragrance. And so it was done, says the Lord God.
20 Ary nentinao ny zanakao-lahy sy ny zanakao-vavy, izay naterakao ho Ahy, dia novonoinao ho fanatitra ho an’ ireo mba hohanina. Moa zavatra kely va izany fijangajanganao izany?
And you took your sons and your daughters, whom you bore for me, and you immolated them to be devoured. Is your fornication a small matter?
21 Ary novonoinao ny zanakao, fa natolotrao ka nampandehaninao namaky ny afo ho an’ ireo.
You have immolated my sons, and you have consecrated and delivered my sons to them.
22 Ary tamin’ ny fahavetavetanao sy ny fijangajanganao rehetra dia tsy nahatsiaro ny andro fahakelezanao ianao, fony ianao nitanjaka sy nihanjahanja sady nihosinkosina teo amin’ ny rànao.
And after all your abominations and fornications, you have not remembered the days of your youth, when you were naked and full of shame, wallowing in your own blood.
23 Ary rehefa vitanao izany faharatsianao rehetra izany (lozanao! lozanao! hoy Jehovah Tompo),
And it happened that, after all your wickedness, (woe, woe to you, says the Lord God)
24 dia nanao trano fijangajangana ho anao ianao sady nanao fitoerana avo ho anao teny an-kalalahana rehetra teny.
you built for yourself a brothel, and you made for yourself a place of prostitution in every street.
25 Ary teny an-tsampanan-dalana rehetra no nanaovanao ny fitoerana avonao, ary novetavetainao ny hatsaran-tarehinao, ka nabahanao ho amin’ ny mpandalo rehetra ny tongotrao, ary nampitomboinao ny fijangajanganao.
At the head of every way, you set up a banner of your prostitution. And you caused your beauty to become abominable. And you distributed your feet to every passer-by. And you multiplied your fornications.
26 Hianao efa nijangajanga tamin’ ny zanak’ i Egypta be nofo izay mifanila fonenana aminao; ary nampitomboinao ny fijangajanganao ka nampahatezitra Ahy.
And you fornicated with the sons of Egypt, your neighbors, who have large bodies. And you multiplied your fornications, so as to provoke me.
27 Ary, indro, nahinjitro taminao ny tanako, ka nahenako ny anjara-haninao, ary natolotro ho amin’ ny sitrapon’ izay mankahala anao ianao, dia ny zanakavavin’ ny Filistina, izay menatra noho ny fahavetavetana fanaonao.
Behold, I will extend my hand over you, and I will take away your justification. And I will give you to the souls of those who hate you, the daughters of the Philistines, who are ashamed of your wicked way.
28 Ary nijangajanga tamin’ ny zanak’ i Asyria koa ianao noho ny tsi-fahafaham-ponao; eny, nijangajanga taminy ianao, nefa mbola tsy afa-po ihany.
You also fornicated with the sons of the Assyrians, for you were not yet done. And after you fornicated, even then, you were not satisfied.
29 Ary mbola nampandrosoinao ihany ny fijangajanganao hatrany amin’ ny tanin’ ny mpandranto. Dia hatrany Kaldea; fa na tia tamin’ izany aza dia mbola tsy afa-po ihany ianao.
And you multiplied your fornications in the land of Canaan with the Chaldeans. And even then, you were not satisfied.
30 Akory ny fahamaimain’ ny fonao! hoy Jehovah Tompo, tamin’ ny nanaovanao ireo rehetra ireo, dia ny fanaon’ ny janga tsivalahara!
With what can I cleanse your heart, says the Lord God, since you do all these things, the works of a woman who is a shameless prostitute?
31 Tamin’ ny nanaovanao ny trano fijangajanganao teny an-tsampanan-dalana rehetra sy ny nanaovanao ny fitoerana avonao teny an-kalalahana rehetra dia tsy mba tahaka ny vehivavy janga ianao, satria tsy nahoanao akory izay tangy.
For you have built your brothel at the head of every way, and you have made your exalted place on every street. And you have not even been like a choosy prostitute, increasing her price,
32 Ny vadin’ olona mijangajanga dia maka olon-kafa ho solon’ ny vadiny!
but instead like a woman who is an adulteress, who prefers strangers to her own husband.
33 Sy vehivavy janga rehetra dia omen-tangy; fa ianao kosa manangy ireo lehilahinao rehetra sady manome azy fanambatambazana hanatonan’ ny ny manodidina rehetra anao mba hijangajangany aminao.
Wages are given to all prostitutes. But you have given wages to all your lovers, and you have given gifts to them, so that they would enter to you from every side, in order to fornicate with you.
34 Ary hafa noho ny amin’ ny vehivavy sasany mihitsy ny fanaonao tamin’ ny fijangajanganao, fa tsy nisy nanaraka anao hijangajanga taminao; eny, satria nanome tangy ianao, fa tsy mba nomena, dia izany indrindra no mahahafa anao
And it is done with you, in your fornications, contrary to the custom of women, and even after you, there will be no such fornication. For in as much as you have given payment, and not taken payment, what has been done in you is the contrary.”
35 Koa mihainoa ny tenin’ i Jehovah, ry kala janga:
Because of this, O harlot, listen to the word of the Lord.
36 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Noho ny nandanianao volabe sy ny nampisehoana ny fitanjahanao tamin’ ny nijangajanganao tamin’ ireny lehilahinao sy ny sampinao rehetra, izay fahavetavetanao, ary noho ny ran’ ny zanakao izay naterinao ho an’ ireo.
Thus says the Lord God: “Because your money has been poured out, and your disgrace has been uncovered, in your fornications with your lovers and with the idols of your abominations, in the blood of your sons, whom you gave to them:
37 dia, indro, hovoriko ireny lehilahinao rehetra ireny, izay mankamany anao sy izay tianao rehetra mbamin’ ireny rehetra izay halanao koa, eny hovoriko avy amin’ ny manodidina ireny mba hamely anao, ka hampisehoiko aminy ny fitanjahanao, dia hahita ny fitanjahanao rehetra izy;
Behold, I will gather all your lovers, with whom you have united, and all those whom you have loved, together with all those whom you have hated. And I will gather them together against you on every side. And I will uncover your disgrace before them, and they will see all your indecency.
38 ary hotsaraiko ianao araka ny fitsara vehivavy mijangajanga sy izay mandatsa-drà, ka halatsako ny rànao noho ny fahatezerana sy ny fahasaro-piaro.
And I will judge you with the judgment of adulteresses and of those who shed blood. And I will give you over to blood, in fury and in zeal.
39 Dia hatolotro ho eny an-tànan’ ireny ianao, ka harodany ny trano fijangajanganao, ary horavany ny fitoerana avonao; dia hendahany koa ny fitafianao, ary hesoriny ny firavakao soa, ka havelany hitanjaka sy hiboridana ianao.
And I will deliver you into their hands. And they will destroy your brothel and demolish your place of prostitution. And they will strip you of your vestments. And they will take away the ornaments of your beauty. And they will leave you behind, naked and full of disgrace.
40 Dia hitondra vahoaka maro be hiakatra hamely anao koa izy ka hotorahany vato sady hotetitetehiny amin’ ny sabany ianao.
And they will lead over you a multitude. And they will stone you with stones, and massacre you with their swords.
41 Ary hodorany amin’ ny afo ny tranonao, ka hotanterahiny eo imason’ ny vehivavy maro ny famaliana anao ary hatsahatro tsy hijangajanga ianao ka tsy hanangy intsony.
And they will burn up your houses with fire, and they will carry out judgments against you in the sight of many women. And you will cease from fornication, and no longer give payment.
42 Toy izany no hialako fo aminao, ary ho afaka ny fahasaro-piaroko aminao, dia hionona Aho ka tsy ho tezitra intsony.
And my indignation will be quieted in you. And my zeal will be taken from you. And I will rest, and no longer be angry.
43 Noho ny tsy nahatsiarovanao ny andro fahakelezanao, fa niempo nanohitra Ahy tamin’ ireo rehetra ireo ianao, dia; indro, ny nataonao ihany no hatsingeriko ho eo an-dohanao, hoy Jehovah Tompo. Ary tsy nanao izany ratsy izany ho fanampin’ ny fahavetavetanao rehetra va ianao?
For you have not remembered the days of your youth, and you have provoked me in all these things. Because of this, I also have delivered all your ways upon your head, says the Lord God, but I have not acted in accord with your wickedness in all your abominations.
44 Indro, ny mpanao ohabolana rehetra dia hamely anao amin’ izao ohabolana izao hoe: Manahaka an-dreniny ihany ny zananivavy.
Behold, all who speak a common proverb will take this up against you, saying: ‘Like the mother, so also is her daughter.’
45 Hianao dia zanakavavin-dreninao, izay mahafoy ny vadiny aman-janany; ary ianao dia rahavavin’ ireo rahavavinao, izay nahafoy ny vadiny aman-janany; Hetita no reninareo, ary Amorita no rainareo.
You are your mother’s daughter, for she cast away her husband and her children. And you are the sister of your sisters, for they cast away their husbands and their children. Your mother was a Cethite, and your father was an Amorite.
46 Samaria no zokinao-vavy, dia izy sy ny zananivavy izay monina eo an-kavianao; ary ny zandrinao vavy, izay monina amin’ ny an-kavananao, dia Sodoma sy ny zananivavy.
And your older sister is Samaria, she and her daughters are those who live to your left. But your younger sister, who lives to your right, is Sodom and her daughters.
47 Nefa tsy araka ny alehan’ ireo ihany no nalehanao, ary tsy araka ny fahavetavetan’ ireo ihany no nataonao; fa hoatra ny zavatra kely loatra izany, ka dia nanao ratsy mihoatra noho ireo indray ianao tamin’ ny nalehanao rehetra.
But neither have you walked in their ways. For you have done only a little less compared to their wickedness. You have acted almost more wickedly, in all your ways, than they have acted.
48 Raha velona koa Aho, hoy Jehovah Tompo, na dia Sodoma rahavavinao sy ny zananivavy aza tsy mba nanao tahaka ny nataonao sy ny zanakao-vavy.
As I live, says the Lord God, your sister Sodom herself, and her daughters, have not done as you and your daughters have done.
49 Indro, izao no helok’ i Sodoma rahavavinao: Avonavona sy fahabetsahan-kanina ary fahatokiam-poana no tao aminy sy tao amin’ ny zananivavy, ary tsy mba nitantana ny malahelo sy ny mahantra izy.
Behold, this was the iniquity of Sodom, your sister: arrogance, indulgence in bread and abundance, and the idleness of her and her daughters; and they did not reach out their hand to the needy and the poor.
50 Niavonavona izy ka nanao fahavetavetana teo anatrehako; ary nony nahita izany Aho, dia nanaisotra azy.
And they were exalted, and they committed abominations before me. And so I took them away, just as you have seen.
51 Ary tsy ampy antsasaky ny fahotanao ny nataon’ i Samaria; fa ianao efa nampitombo ny fahavetavetanao mihoatra noho izy, ary nampiseho ny rahavavinao ho toa marina indray tamin’ ny fahavetave-tanao rehetra izay nataonao.
But Samaria has not committed even half of your sins. For you have exceeded them in your wickedness, and you have justified your sisters by all your abominations, which you have wrought.
52 Hianao koa dia aoka hitondra ny henatrao araka ny efa nitsaranao ny rahavavinao. Noho ny fahotanao izay nahatonga anao ho vetaveta mihoatra noho ireo, ka dia miseho ho toa marina noho ianao izy, eny, menara koa ianao, ka mitondrà ny henatrao noho ny nampisehoanao ny rahavavinao ho toa marina.
Therefore, you also bear your shame, for you have exceeded your sisters with your sins, acting more wickedly than they did. So they have been justified above you. By this also, you are confounded, and you bear your disgrace, for you have justified your sisters.
53 Ary hampodiko avy amin’ ny fahababoana ireny, dia Sodoma sy ny zananivavy, ary Samaria sy ny zananivavy mbamin’ izay olonao voababo,
But I will convert and restore them, by converting Sodom with her daughters, and by converting Samaria and her daughters. And I will convert your return in their midst.
54 mba hitondranao ny henatrao sy hangaihaizanao noho izay rehetra nataonao amin’ ny hampiononanao azy.
So may you bear your disgrace and be confounded over all that you have done, consoling them.
55 Ary ny rahavavinao, dia Sodoma sy ny zananivavy, dia hody amin’ ny toetrany taloha, ary Samaria sy ny zananivavy dia hody amin’ ny toetrany taloha, ary ianao sy ny zanakaovavy dia hody amin’ ny toetrareo taloha koa.
And your sister Sodom and her daughters will return to their ancient state. And Samaria and her daughters will return to their ancient state. And you and your daughters will be returned to your ancient state.
56 Nefa tsy mbola mba notononin’ ny vavanao akory ny nanjo an’ i Sodoma rahavavinao tamin’ ny andro niavonavonanao,
Your sister Sodom was not heard from your mouth, then, in the day of your pride,
57 fony tsy mbola niseho ny faharatsianao, toy ny tamin’ ny andro nandatsan’ ny zanakavavin’ i Syria sy izay rehetra manodidina azy ary ny zanakavavin’ ny Filistina, izay namingavinga anao manodidina.
before your malice was revealed, as it is at this time, with the reproach of the daughters of Syria and of all the daughters of Palestine, who surround you, who encircle you on every side.
58 Ny faharatsianao sy ny fahavetavetanao no ho entinao, hoy Jehovah.
You have borne your wickedness and your disgrace, says the Lord God.”
59 Fa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Araka ny nataonao ihany no hataoko aminao, izay namingavinga ny fianianana ka nivadika ny fanekena.
For thus says the Lord God: “I will act toward you, just as you have despised the oath, so that you would make void the covenant.
60 Nefa hotsarovako ny fanekena nataoko taminao, tamin’ ny andro fahakelezanao, ka hanorina fanekena mandrakizay aminao Aho.
And I will remember my covenant with you in the days of your youth. And I will raise up for you an everlasting covenant.
61 Dia hotsarovanao ny nalehanao, ka ho menatra ianao, raha mandray ireo rahavavinao, dia ny zokinao sy ny zandrinao; ka homeko ho zanakao-vavy ireo, na dia tsy mba isan’ ilay nanaovako fanekena taminao aza.
And you shall remember your ways and be confounded, when you will have received your sisters, your elder with your younger. And I will give them to you as daughters, but not by your covenant.
62 Izaho hanorina ny fanekeko aminao, ka dia ho fantatrao fa Izaho no Jehovah,
And I will raise up my covenant with you. And you shall know that I am the Lord.
63 mba hahatsiarovanao sy hangaihainao ary tsy hiloahanao vava intsony noho ny henatrao, raha mamela ny helokao ny amin’ ny nataonao rehetra Aho, hoy Jehovah Tompo.
So may you remember and be confounded. And it will no longer be for you to open your mouth, because of your shame, when I will have been pacified toward you over all that you have done, says the Lord God.”
