Ezekiela 36
1 Ary ianao, ry zanak’ olona, maminania amin’ ny tendrombohitry ny Isiraely, ka ataovy hoe: Ry tendrombohitry ny Isiraely, mihainoa ny tenin’ i Jehovah:
You, son of man, prophesy to the mountains of Israel, and say, “You mountains of Israel, hear the LORD’s word.
2 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Noho ny nanaovan’ ny fahavalo anareo hoe: Hià! efa lasanay ny havoana fahagola!
The Lord GOD says: ‘Because the enemy has said against you, “Aha!” and, “The ancient high places are ours in possession!”’
3 Dia maminania, ka lazao hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Noho ny nandravany anareo sy ny nisafoahany nanenjika anareo avy amin’ ny tany manodidina, ka dia efa lasan’ ny jentilisa sisa ho fananany ianareo, sady efa nataon’ ny molotry ny mpibedibedy fitenenana ka efa ambentinteny amin’ ny firenena,
therefore prophesy, and say, ‘The Lord GOD says: “Because, even because they have made you desolate, and swallowed you up on every side, that you might be a possession to the residue of the nations, and you are taken up in the lips of talkers, and the evil report of the people;”
4 Dia mihainoa ny tenin’ i Jehovah Tompo, ry tendrombohitry ny Isiraely: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo amin’ ny tendrombohitra sy ny havoana, ny lohasahan-driaka sy ny lohasaha ary amin’ ny korontam-bato sy ny tanàna haolo, izay efa babo sy fandatsa ho an’ ny firenena sisa amin’ ny manodidina,
therefore, you mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord GOD: The Lord GOD says to the mountains and to the hills, to the watercourses and to the valleys, to the desolate wastes and to the cities that are forsaken, which have become a prey and derision to the residue of the nations that are all around;
5 Eny, izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Tamin’ ny afon’ ny fahasaro-piaroko no nitenenako tokoa Namely ny firenena sisa sy Edoma rehetra, Izay nahalasa ny taniko ho fananany Tamin’ ny hafalian’ ny fony tokoa sy tamin’ ny fanahy mamingavinga, mba hangoronany azy ho babo.
therefore the Lord GOD says: “Surely in the fire of my jealousy I have spoken against the residue of the nations, and against all Edom, that have appointed my land to themselves for a possession with the joy of all their heart, with despite of soul, to cast it out for a prey.”’
6 Koa maminania ny amin’ ny tanin’ ny Isiraely, ka lazao amin’ ny tendrombohitra sy ny havoana ary ny lohasahan-driaka sy ny lohasaha hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: (Indro, tamin’ ny fahasaro-piaroko sy ny fahatezerako no nitenenako): Noho ny nitondranareo latsa tamin’ ny firenena,
Therefore prophesy concerning the land of Israel, and tell the mountains, the hills, the watercourses and the valleys, ‘The Lord GOD says: “Behold, I have spoken in my jealousy and in my wrath, because you have borne the shame of the nations.”
7 Dia izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Izaho efa nanangan-tanana nanao hoe; Ny firenena manodidina anareo no hitondra henatra.
Therefore the Lord GOD says: “I have sworn, ‘Surely the nations that are around you will bear their shame.’
8 Fa ianareo kosa, ry tendrombohitry ny Isiraely, dia hisandrahaka sy hahavokatra ho an’ ny Isiraely oloko; Fa efa antomotra ny hihavian’ ireny.
“‘“But you, mountains of Israel, you shall shoot out your branches and yield your fruit to my people Israel; for they are at hand to come.
9 Fa, indro, hitodika ho aminareo Aho ka hanatrika anareo; Dia hasaina sy hofafazana ianareo;
For, behold, I am for you, and I will come to you, and you will be tilled and sown.
10 Ary hahamaro ny olona eny aminareo Aho, dia ny taranak’ Isiraely rehetra rehetra, ary honenana ny tanàna, ka haorina indray ny efa rava;
I will multiply men on you, all the house of Israel, even all of it. The cities will be inhabited and the waste places will be built.
11 Dia hampitombo olona sy biby fiompy eny aminareo Aho, ka hitombo sy hiteraka ireo; Hametrahako mponina tahaka ny taloha any aminareo, ary hanisy soa anareo mihoatra noho ny tamin’ ny niandohanareo Aho; Ka dia ho fantatrareo fa Izaho no Jehovah.
I will multiply man and animal on you. They will increase and be fruitful. I will cause you to be inhabited as you were before, and you will do better than at your beginnings. Then you will know that I am the LORD.
12 Eny, hampivoivoy olona eny aminareo Aho, dia ny Isiraely oloko; Dia hanana anareo izy ka hahalasa anareo ho lovany, ary tsy hahalany fara azy intsony ianareo.
Yes, I will cause men to walk on you, even my people Israel. They will possess you, and you will be their inheritance, and you will never again bereave them of their children.”
13 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Noho ny nanaovany taminareo hoe: Hianao, ry tany, dia mandany olona, Sady mahalany fara ny firenenao,
“‘The Lord GOD says: “Because they say to you, ‘You are a devourer of men, and have been a bereaver of your nation;’
14 Dia tsy handany olona intsony ianao, na hahalavo ny firenenao intsony, hoy Jehovah Tompo.
therefore you shall devour men no more, and not bereave your nation any more,” says the Lord GOD.
15 Ary hataoko tsy mahare ny latsan’ ny jentilisa intsony ianao Sady tsy hitondra ny fanaratsian’ olona intsony; Ary tsy hahalavo ny firenenao intsony ianao, hoy Jehovah Tompo.
“I won’t let you hear the shame of the nations any more. You won’t bear the reproach of the peoples any more, and you won’t cause your nation to stumble any more,” says the Lord GOD.’”
16 Ary tonga tamiko ny tenin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:
Moreover the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
17 Ry zanak’ olona, ny taranak’ Isiraely nonina tany amin’ ny taniny, dia nandoto izany tamin’ ny fanaony sy tamin’ ny asany izy; fa tahaka ny fahalotoan’ ny vehivavy mararin’ ny fadim-bolana no fahalotoan’ ny fanaony eo anatrehako.
“Son of man, when the house of Israel lived in their own land, they defiled it by their ways and by their deeds. Their way before me was as the uncleanness of a woman in her impurity.
18 Ka dia naidiko ho aminy ny fahatezerako mirehitra noho ny rà nalatsany teo amin’ ny tany sy noho ny nandotoany izany tamin’ ny sampiny.
Therefore I poured out my wrath on them for the blood which they had poured out on the land, and because they had defiled it with their idols.
19 Ary naeliko ho any amin’ ny firenena izy ka nahahaka ho any amin’ ny tany samy hafa; araka ny fanaony sy ny asany no nitsarako azy.
I scattered them amongst the nations, and they were dispersed through the countries. I judged them according to their way and according to their deeds.
20 Ary nony tonga tany amin’ ny firenena izay nalehany izy, dia tonga fandotoana ny anarako masìna tamin’ ny nanaovan’ ny olona azy hoe: Ireo no olon’ i Jehovah, nefa niala tamin’ ny tanin’ i Jehovah izy.
When they came to the nations where they went, they profaned my holy name, in that men said of them, ‘These are the LORD’s people, and have left his land.’
21 Dia namindrako fo ny anarako masìna, izay nolotoin’ ny taranak’ Isiraely tany amin’ ny firenena izay nalehany.
But I had respect for my holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned amongst the nations where they went.
22 Koa atsovy amin’ ny taranak’ Isiraely hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Tsy noho ny aminareo no anaovako izany, ry taranak’ Isiraely, fa noho ny anarako, masìna, izay nolotoinareo tany amin’ ny jentilisa izay nalehanareo.
“Therefore tell the house of Israel, ‘The Lord GOD says: “I don’t do this for your sake, house of Israel, but for my holy name, which you have profaned amongst the nations where you went.
23 Ary hohamasiniko ny anarako lehibe izay efa nolotoinareo tany amin’ ny jentilisa, ka dia ho fantany fa Izaho no Jehovah, hoy Jehovah Tompo, rehefa miseho ho masìna eo imasony Aho amin’ ny ataoko aminareo.
I will sanctify my great name, which has been profaned amongst the nations, which you have profaned amongst them. Then the nations will know that I am the LORD,” says the Lord GOD, “when I am proven holy in you before their eyes.
24 Fa halaiko avy any amin’ ny jentilisa ianareo ary hangoniko avy any amin’ ny tany rehetra ka ho entiko ho any amin’ ny taninareo.
“‘“For I will take you from amongst the nations and gather you out of all the countries, and will bring you into your own land.
25 Dia hofafazako rano madio ianareo, ka hadio; ny mba ho afaka amin’ ny fahalotoanareo rehetra sy ny sampinareo rehetra no hanadiovako anareo.
I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you will be clean. I will cleanse you from all your filthiness and from all your idols.
26 Ary homeko fo vaovao ianareo, ary fanahy vaovao no hataoko ao anatinareo, ary hesoriko amin’ ny nofonareo ny fo vato, ka homeko fo nofo ianareo.
I will also give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit within you. I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you a heart of flesh.
27 Ary ny Fanahiko no hataoko ao anatinareo, ka hahatonga anareo handeha araka ny lalàko sy hitandrina ny fitsipiko ka hanaraka azy.
I will put my Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes. You will keep my ordinances and do them.
28 Ary honina any amin’ ny tany izay nomeko ny razanareo ianareo, ka ho oloko ianareo, ary Izaho ho Andriamanitrareo.
You will dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers. You will be my people, and I will be your God.
29 Ary hovonjeko ho afaka amin’ ny fahalotoanareo rehetra ianareo, ary hantsoiko sy hataoko vokatra ny vary, ary tsy hanaterako mosary intsony ianareo;
I will save you from all your uncleanness. I will call for the grain and will multiply it, and lay no famine on you.
30 ary hataoko vokatra koa ny voankazo sy ny vokatry ny saha, mba tsy ho voalatsan’ ny jentilisa amin’ ny mosary intsony ianareo.
I will multiply the fruit of the tree and the increase of the field, that you may receive no more the reproach of famine amongst the nations.
31 Dia hotsarovanareo ny lalan-dratsinareo sy ny fanao tsy metinareo, ka dia haharikoriko anareo ny tenanareo noho ny fahadisoanareo sy ny fahavetavetanareo.
“‘“Then you will remember your evil ways, and your deeds that were not good; and you will loathe yourselves in your own sight for your iniquities and for your abominations.
32 Tsy noho ny aminareo no anaovako izany, hoy Jehovah Tompo aoka ho fantatrareo izany; koa menara sy mangaihaiza ianareo noho ny lalanareo, ry taranak’ Isiraely.
I don’t do this for your sake,” says the Lord GOD. “Let it be known to you. Be ashamed and confounded for your ways, house of Israel.”
33 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Amin’ ny andro hanadiovako anareo ho afaka amin’ ny helokareo rehetra dia hametrahako mponina ao amin’ ny tanana, ary haorina indray ny efa rava.
“‘The Lord GOD says: “In the day that I cleanse you from all your iniquities, I will cause the cities to be inhabited and the waste places will be built.
34 Ary hasaina ny tany efa lao, fa tsy ho lao eo imason’ ny mpandalo rehetra intsony izy.
The land that was desolate will be tilled instead of being a desolation in the sight of all who passed by.
35 Fa holazainy hoe: Ity tany efa lao ity dia tonga tahaka ny saha Edena; ary ny tanàna efa foana sy lao dia misy mponina sady asiana manda;
They will say, ‘This land that was desolate has become like the garden of Eden. The waste, desolate, and ruined cities are fortified and inhabited.’
36 ka dia ho fantatry ny jentilisa sisa manodidina anareo fa Izaho Jehovah no manorina indray ny efa rava sy mamboly izay efa foana. Izaho Jehovah no niteny sady hahatanteraka izany.
Then the nations that are left around you will know that I, the LORD, have built the ruined places and planted that which was desolate. I, the LORD, have spoken it, and I will do it.”
37 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Mbola hotadiavin’ ny taranak’ Isiraely Aho amin’ ny hanaovako izao ho azy; hohamaroiko toy ny ondry ny olony.
“‘The Lord GOD says: “For this, moreover, I will be enquired of by the house of Israel, to do it for them: I will increase them with men like a flock.
38 Toy ny ondry aman’ osy masìna, izay any Jerosalema amin’ ny fotoam-pivavahana, dia toy izany no hahafenoan’ ny tanànany efa lao amin’ ny olona maro toy ny ondry aman’ osy; ka dia ho fantatra fa Izaho no Jehovah.
As the flock for sacrifice, as the flock of Jerusalem in her appointed feasts, so the waste cities will be filled with flocks of men. Then they will know that I am the LORD.’”
