Ezekiela 35

1 Ary tonga tamiko ny tenin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:

And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:

2 Ry zanak’ olona, manandrifia ny tendrombohitra Seïra, ka maminania ny hamelezana azy,

“Son of man, set your face against mount Seir, and you shall prophesy about it, and you shall say to it:

3 dia ataovy aminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Indro, avy hamely anao Aho, ry tendrombohitra Seïra, ary hahinjitro aminao ny tanako, ka hataoko foana sy lao ianao.

Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against you, mount Seir, and I will extend my hand over you, and I will make you desolate and deserted.

4 Ny tanànanao hataoko korontam-bato, ary ianao ho lao; Ka dia ho fantatrao fa Izaho no Jehovah.

I will tear down your cities, and you will be deserted. And you shall know that I am the Lord.

5 Noho ny fandrafianao hatry ny fony ela sy ny nanoloranao ny zanak’ Isiraely ho fatin’ ny sabatra, fony tamin’ ny andro nahitany loza, dia ny fotoan’ ny heloka mahafaty,

For you have been a continual adversary, and you have enclosed the sons of Israel, by the hands of the sword, in the time of their affliction, in the time of extreme iniquity.

6 Dia izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Raha velona koa Aho, dia hataoko manjary rà ianao, ary rà no hanenjika anao; Satria tsy nankahalainao ny rà, dia rà kosa no hanenjika anao.

Because of this, as I live, says the Lord God, I will hand you over to blood, and blood will pursue you. Even though you have hated blood, blood will pursue you.

7 Hataoko foana sy lao ny tendrombohitra Seïra, sady hataoko tsy misy intsony ny mandroso sy ny miverina,

And I will make mount Seir desolate and deserted. And I will take away from it the one who departs and the one who returns.

8 Ary hofenoiko ny olony voavono ny tendrombohiny; Eny, ao amin’ ny havoananao sy ny lohasahanao Ary amoron’ ny lohasahan-driakanao rehetra no hiampatramparan’ izay voatrabaky ny sabatra.

And I will fill up its mountains with its slain. In your hills, and in your valleys, as well as in your torrents, the slain will fall by the sword.

9 Hataoko rava mandrakizay ianao, ary tsy honenana intsony ny tanànanao; Ka dia ho fantatrareo fa Izaho no Jehovah.

I will hand you over to everlasting desolations, and your cities will not be inhabited. And you shall know that I am the Lord God.

10 Ary noho ny nanaovanao hoe: Ireto firenena roa ireto sy ireto tany roa ireto dia ho ahy avokoa, Ka hanana azy izahay kanefa teo ihany Jehovah

For you have said, ‘Two nations and two lands will be mine, and I will possess them as an inheritance,’ though the Lord was in that place.

11 Dia izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Raha velona koa Aho, dia hanao araka ny fahatezeranao sy ny fialonanao Aho, izay nataonao noho ny fandrafianao azy; Ary hampahafantariko ao aminy ny tenako amin’ ny hitsarako anao.

Because of this, as I live, says the Lord God, I will act in accord with your own wrath, and in accord with your own zeal, by which you have acted with hatred toward them. And I will be made known by them, when I will have judged you.

12 Ka dia ho fantatrao fa Izaho Jehovah no efa nandre ny fanaratsiana, izay nolazainao ny amin’ ireny tendrombohitry ny Isiraely hoe: Foana ireny ka nomena anay ho fivelomanay.

And you shall know that I, the Lord, have heard all your disgraces, which you have spoken about the mountains of Israel, saying: ‘They are deserted. They have been given to us to devour.’

13 Ary nanao teny miavonavona namely Ahy ianareo sy nanamaro ny teninareo namely Aha; efa reko izany.

And you rose up against me with your mouth, and you disparaged against me with your words. I have heard.

14 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Rehefa mifaly ny tany rehetra, dia hofoanako kosa ianao,

Thus says the Lord God: When the whole earth will rejoice, I will reduce you to solitude.

15 Toy ny nifalianao ny amin’ ny lovan’ ny taranak’ Isirady, satria nofoanana ireny, dia toy izany kosa no hataoko aminao: Ho foana ianao, ry tendrombohitra Seïra sy Edoma rehetra; Ka dia ho fantatra fa Izaho no Jehovah.

Just as you have rejoiced over the inheritance of the house of Israel, when it was laid waste, so will I act toward you. You will be laid waste, O mount Seir, with all of Idumea. And they shall know that I am the Lord.”
