< Ezekiela 16 >
1 Tonga tamiko indray ny tenin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:
And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
2 Ry zanak’ olona, ampahafantaro an’ i Jerosalema ny fahavetavetany,
Son of man, make known unto 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 thou shalt say, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal unto Jerusalem, Thy origin and thy birth are out of the land of Canaan: thy father was an Emorite, and thy mother a Hittite.
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 as for thy birth, on the day thou wast born thy navel was not cut, nor wast thou washed in water to he cleansed; and thou wast not rubbed with salt, nor wrapt in swaddling clothes.
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 looked with pity on thee, to do any of these things unto thee, to have compassion upon thee; but thou wast cast out on the open field, with a loathing of thy body, on the day that thou wast 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 I passed then by thee, and I saw thee stained with thy own blood, and I said unto thee, In thy blood, live; yea, I said unto thee, In thy 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
Myriads, like the vegetation of the field, did I make of thee, and thou didst increase and become great, and thou attainedst the highest attractions: with thy breasts developed, and thy hair full grown; but thou wast still naked and bare.
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.
But I passed then by thee, and saw thee, and, behold, thy time was the time of love; and I spread the skirt of my garment over thee, and covered thy nakedness: yea, I swore unto thee, and entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord Eternal, and thou becamest mine.
9 Dia nampandroiko rano ianao, eny, nosasako tsara ho afaka tamin’ ny rànao, dia nohosorako diloilo.
Then did I bathe thee with water, yea, I thoroughly washed away thy blood from thee; and I anointed thee with oil.
10 Notafiako lamba misoratsoratra koa ianao sy nokiraroako hoditakasy, ary nampisikiniko rongony fotsy madinika sy notafiako amparasily.
I clothed thee also with broidered work, and made thee shoes of badger's skin, and I placed on thy head a turban of fine linen, and I covered thee with silk.
11 Noravahako firavaka koa ianao, ka nasiako haba ny tananao ary rojo ny vozonao
And I decked thee with ornaments, and I placed bracelets upon thy hands, and a chain around thy neck.
12 Ary nasiako kavina ny oronao sy ny sofinao ary satro-boninahitra tsara tarehy ny lohanao,
And I placed a ring on thy nose, and earrings in thy ears, and a crown of splendor on thy 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
Thus wast thou ornamented with gold and silver; and thy garments were of fine linen, and silk, and broidered work; fine flour, and honey, and oil didst thou eat: and thou wast exceedingly beautiful, and thou didst succeed to acquire dominion.
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 thy fame went forth among the nations because of thy beauty; for it was perfect through my glorious ornament, which I had put upon thee, saith the Lord Eternal.
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 thou didst trust in thy beauty, and play the harlot because of thy fame, and lavish thy lewd caresses on every one that passed by—on him they were bestowed.
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 thou didst take from thy garments, and deck thee high-places with divers colors, and play the harlot thereupon: never should the like come to pass, and never should it be so.
17 Ary nalainao koa ny firavakao tamin’ ny volamenako sy ny volafotsiko, izay nomeko anao, dia nataonao sarin-dehilahy ho anao ka nijangajanganao;
And thou didst take thy elegant ornaments of my gold and of my silver, which I had given thee, and make for thyself male images, and play the harlot with them;
18 nalainao koa ny fitafianao misoratsoratra ka natatinao ireo; ary ny diloiloko sy ny ditin-kazo manitro dia napetrakao teo anoloany
And thou didst take thy broidered garments, and cover them: and my oil and my incense didst thou place 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 had given thee, fine flour, and oil, and honey, which I had let thee eat, even this didst thou set before them for a sweet savour: yes, so was it, saith the Lord Eternal.
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 thou didst take thy sons and thy daughters, whom thou hadst born unto me, and didst slaughter these unto them to be devoured; [but] were thy acts of lewdness not yet enough?
21 Ary novonoinao ny zanakao, fa natolotrao ka nampandehaninao namaky ny afo ho an’ ireo.
That thou didst slay my children, and give them up to cause them to pass through the fire for 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 in all thy abominations and thy acts of lewdness thou didst not remember the days of thy youth, when thou wast naked and bare, when thou wast stained with thy blood.
23 Ary rehefa vitanao izany faharatsianao rehetra izany (lozanao! lozanao! hoy Jehovah Tompo),
And it came to pass after all thy wickedness, —[woe, woe unto thee! saith the Lord Eternal; ]—
24 dia nanao trano fijangajangana ho anao ianao sady nanao fitoerana avo ho anao teny an-kalalahana rehetra teny.
That thou didst build unto thyself eminences, and make thyself elevations 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.
On the corner of every road didst thou build thy elevations, and make thy beauty abominable, and spread out thy feet to every one that passed by, and multiply thy acts of lewdness.
26 Hianao efa nijangajanga tamin’ ny zanak’ i Egypta be nofo izay mifanila fonenana aminao; ary nampitomboinao ny fijangajanganao ka nampahatezitra Ahy.
And thou didst play the harlot with the Egyptians, thy neighbors, with large limbs, and multiply thy acts of lewdness, to provoke me to anger.
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.
And, behold, I stretched out my hand over thee, and diminished thy stated portion; and I gave thee up unto the will of those that hate thee, the daughters of the Philistines, who were made to blush for thy incestuous course.
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.
Then didst thou play the harlot with the sons of Asshur, because thou wast unsatiable: yea, thou didst play the harlot with them, and wast even then 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 thou didst multiply thy lewdness with the traders' land as far as Chaldea; and even with this wast thou not satisfied.
30 Akory ny fahamaimain’ ny fonao! hoy Jehovah Tompo, tamin’ ny nanaovanao ireo rehetra ireo, dia ny fanaon’ ny janga tsivalahara!
How very corrupt is thy heart, saith the Lord Eternal, seeing thou didst all these things, deeds of an abandoned lewd woman;
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.
Seeing that thou didst build thy eminences at the corner of every road, and make thy elevations in every street; and wast not like a harlot, as thou scornedst the wages.
32 Ny vadin’ olona mijangajanga dia maka olon-kafa ho solon’ ny vadiny!
O thou adulterous wife! who, while bound to her husband, receiveth strangers!
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.
Unto all harlots they give presents; but thou hast given thy presents to all thy lovers, and hast bribed them, that they might come unto thee from every side in thy acts of lewdness.
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 the reverse was the case with thee from [other] women in thy acts of lewdness, that men did not follow thee to seek thy lewd caresses; and because thou gavest the wages, and no wages were given thee: so was it the reverse with thee.
35 Koa mihainoa ny tenin’ i Jehovah, ry kala janga:
Therefore, O harlot, hear 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 hath said the Lord Eternal, Whereas thy wealth was squandered, and thy nakedness was uncovered through thy lewd acts with thy lovers, and with all thy abominable idols, and for the blood of thy children, whom thou didst give unto 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;
Therefore, behold, I will gather all thy lovers, whom thou hast given pleasure, and all whom thou hast loved, together with all whom thou hast hated, —yea, I will gather them all round about thee, and will uncover thy nakedness unto them, that they may see all thy nakedness.
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 thee, as adulteresses and women that shed blood are judged; and I will bring upon thee the blood of fury and jealousy.
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 also give thee up into their hand, and they shall pull down thy eminences, and shall break down thy elevations; and they shall strip thee of thy clothes, and they shall take thy elegant ornaments, and leave thee naked and bare.
40 Dia hitondra vahoaka maro be hiakatra hamely anao koa izy ka hotorahany vato sady hotetitetehiny amin’ ny sabany ianao.
And they shall bring up against thee an assembly, and they shall stone thee with stones, and thrust thee through 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 shall burn thy houses with fire, and execute punishments on thee before the eyes of many women: and I will cause thee to cease from being a harlot, and also the wages [of sin] shalt thou not give any more.
42 Toy izany no hialako fo aminao, ary ho afaka ny fahasaro-piaroko aminao, dia hionona Aho ka tsy ho tezitra intsony.
And then will I assuage my fury on thee, and my jealousy shall depart from thee, and I will be quiet, and will be no more 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?
Because that thou didst not remember the days of thy youth, but didst irritate me with all these things: behold, therefore I also will bring thy course upon thy head, saith the Lord Eternal, and thou shalt no more commit incest with all thy [other] abominations.
44 Indro, ny mpanao ohabolana rehetra dia hamely anao amin’ izao ohabolana izao hoe: Manahaka an-dreniny ihany ny zananivavy.
Behold, every one that speaketh in proverbs shall use this proverb against thee, saying, As the mother is, so 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.
Thou art thy mother's daughter, loathing her husband and her children; and thou art the sister of thy sisters, who have loathed their husbands and their children: your mother was a Hittite, and your father an Emorite.
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 thy elder sister is Samaria, she with her daughters, that dwelleth at thy left hand, and thy younger sister, that dwelleth at thy right hand, is Sodom with 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.
Yet not even in their ways didst thou walk, nor act according to their abominations: as though this were quite too little, and thou wast more corrupt than they in all thy ways.
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, saith the Lord Eternal, Sodom thy sister, she with her daughters, hath not done as thou hast done, thou with thy daughters.
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 thy sister Sodom: Pride, abundance of food, and prosperous security were hers and her daughters'; but the hand of the poor and needy did she not strengthen.
50 Niavonavona izy ka nanao fahavetavetana teo anatrehako; ary nony nahita izany Aho, dia nanaisotra azy.
And they became haughty, and committed abominations before me: therefore did I remove them when I saw their course.
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.
And Samaria hath not committed even the half of thy sins; but thou didst multiply thy abominations more than they; and thou hast justified thy sisters through all thy abominations which thou hast done.
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.
Bear then thou also thy own confusion, which thou didst adjudge unto each of thy sisters; through thy sins, which thou hast committed more abominably than they, are they made more righteous than thou: therefore thou also—be ashamed, and bear thy confusion, since thou hast justified thy sisters.
53 Ary hampodiko avy amin’ ny fahababoana ireny, dia Sodoma sy ny zananivavy, ary Samaria sy ny zananivavy mbamin’ izay olonao voababo,
And I will bring back again their captivity, the captivity of Sodom and her daughters, and the captivity of Samaria and her daughters, and the captivity of the captives in the midst of them:
54 mba hitondranao ny henatrao sy hangaihaizanao noho izay rehetra nataonao amin’ ny hampiononanao azy.
In order that thou mayest bear thy confusion, and mayest be confounded because of all that thou hast done, when thou art a comfort unto 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 thy sisters, Sodom and her daughters, shall return to their former state, and Samaria and her daughters shall return to their former state, and thou and thy daughters shall return to your former state.
56 Nefa tsy mbola mba notononin’ ny vavanao akory ny nanjo an’ i Sodoma rahavavinao tamin’ ny andro niavonavonanao,
And was not thy sister Sodom a report in thy mouth in the days of thy 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 yet thy wickedness was discovered, as at the time of the reproach of the daughters of Syria, and all those round about her, the daughters of the Philistines, who taunted thee on all sides?
58 Ny faharatsianao sy ny fahavetavetanao no ho entinao, hoy Jehovah.
Thy incest and thy abominations, —thou thyself hadst to bear them, saith the Lord.
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 hath said the Lord Eternal, I will even deal with thee as thou hast done, thou who hast despised the oath by breaking the covenant.
60 Nefa hotsarovako ny fanekena nataoko taminao, tamin’ ny andro fahakelezanao, ka hanorina fanekena mandrakizay aminao Aho.
Nevertheless will I indeed remember my covenant with thee in the days of thy youth, and I will establish unto thee 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 thou shalt then remember thy ways, and be confounded, when thou receivest thy sisters, both those that are older than thou and younger than thou: and I will give them unto thee for daughters, though not because thou wast faithful to the covenant.
62 Izaho hanorina ny fanekeko aminao, ka dia ho fantatrao fa Izaho no Jehovah,
And I will establish my covenant with thee; and thou shalt 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.
In order that thou mayest remember, and feel ashamed, and never open thy mouth any more because of thy confusion, when I forgive thee for all that thou hast done, saith the Lord Eternal.
