Ezekiela 37
1 Tao amiko ny tànan’ i Jehovah, ary ny Fanahy no nitondran’ i Jehovah ahy nivoaka, dia napetrany teo amin’ ny lohasaha feno taolana aho.
And the hand of the Lord came upon me, and the Lord brought me forth by the Spirit, and set me in the midst of the plain, and it was full of human bones.
2 Ary nitondra ahy nandehandeha teny amin’ ireo Izy; ary, indreo, betsaka dia betsaka teny amin’ ny lohasaha ireo, ary, indreo, maina dia maina Ireo.
And he led me round about them every way: and, behold, [there were] very many on the face of the plain, very dry.
3 Ary hoy Jebovah tamiko: Ry zanak’ olona, moa mety ho velona ihany va ireto taolana ireto? Ary hoy izaho: Jehovah Tompo ô, Hianao no mahalala.
And he said to me, Son of man, will these bones live? and I said, O Lord God, thou knowest this.
4 Dia hoy indray Izy tamiko: Maminania amin’ ireto taolana ireto, ka ataovy aminy hoe: Ry taola-maina, mihainoa ny tenin’ i Jehovah!
And he said to me, Prophesy upon these bones, and thou shalt say to them, Ye dry bones, hear the word of the Lord.
5 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo amin’ ireto taolana ireto: Indro, hasiako fofonaina ianareo ka ho velona;
Thus saith the Lord to these bones; Behold, I [will] bring upon you the breath of life:
6 ary hasiako ozatra ianareo ka hampaniriko nofo; ary hosaronako hoditra ianareo; ary hasiako fofonaina ianareo ka ho velona; ka dia ho fantatrareo fa Izaho no Jehovah.
and I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and will spread skin upon you, and will put my Spirit into you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I am the Lord.
7 Dia naminany aho araka izay efa nandidiana ahy, ary nony efa naminany aho, dia injany! nisy feo, ary, indreo, nihetsiketsika sady nifanatonatona ny taolana, samy nanatona ny taolana namany avy.
So I prophesied as [the Lord] commanded me: and it came to pass while I was prophesying, that, behold, [there was] a shaking, and the bones approached each one to his joint.
8 Ary hitako fa, indro, naniry ny ozatra sy ny nofo, ary nisarona hoditra izy, nefa tsy mbola nisy fofonaina tao aminy.
And I looked, and behold, sinews and flesh grew upon them, and skin came upon them above: but there was not breath in them.
9 Dia hoy Izy tamiko: Maminania amin’ ny fofonaina, eny, maminania, ry zanak’ olona, ka ataovy amin’ ny fofonaina hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Manatona avy amin’ ny rivotra efatra, ry fofonaina, ka tsotsofy ireo voavono ireo, mba ho velona izy.
And he said to me, Prophesy to the wind, prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord; Come from the four winds, and breathe upon these dead [men], and let them live.
10 Dia naminany araka izay efa nandidiany ahy aho, ka dia nidiran’ ny fofonaina ireo ka velona, dia nijoro tamin’ ny tongony izy maro be dia maro be tokoa.
So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath entered into them, and they lived, and stood upon their feet, a very great congregation.
11 Dia hoy Izy tamiko: Ry zanak’ olona, ireto taolana ireto dia ny taranak’ Isiraely rehetra; indreo izy manao hoe: Maina ny taolanay, levona ny fanantenanay, fongotra izahay.
And the Lord spoke to me, saying, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: and they say, Our bones are become dry, our hope has perished, we are quite spent.
12 Koa maminania, ka ataovy aminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Indro, ry oloko, Izaho no hanokatra ny fasanareo, ary hampiakariko avy amin’ ny fasanareo ianareo, ka ho entiko ho any amin’ ny tanin’ ny Isiraely;
Therefore prophesy and say, Thus saith the Lord; Behold, I [will] open your tombs, and will bring you up out of your tombs, and will bring you into the land of Israel.
13 ka dia ho fantatrareo fa Izaho no Jehovah, raha manokatra ny fasanareo Aho, ry oloko, ka mampiakatra anareo hiala amin’ ny fasanareo.
And ye shall know that I am the Lord, when I have opened your graves, that I may bring up my people from [their] graves.
14 Ary hataoko ao anatinareo ny Fanahiko, dia ho velona ianareo, ary hamponeniko any amin’ ny taninareo ianareo; ka dia ho fantatrareo fa Izaho Jehovah no efa niteny sady nahatanteraka izany, hoy Jehovah.
And I will put my Spirit within you, and ye shall live, and I will place you upon your own land: and ye shall know that I [am] the Lord; I have spoken, and will do [it], saith the Lord.
15 Ary tonga tamiko ny tenin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
16 Ary ianao, ry zanak’ olona, dia mangalà tapa-kazo iray, ka asio soratra hoe: Ho an’ ny Joda sy ho an’ ny zanak’ Isiraely namany; dia mangalà tapa-kazo anankiray koa, ka asio soratra hoe: Ho an’ i Josefa dia tapa-kazon’ i Efraima sy ho an’ ny taranak’ Isiraely namany rehetra.
Son of man, take for thyself a rod, and write upon it, Juda, and the children of Israel his adherents; and thou shalt take for thyself another rod, and thou shalt inscribe it for Joseph, the rod of Ephraim, and all the children of Israel that belong to him.
17 Ary ampifanatony izy roa ho tonga tapa-kazo iray ihany, dia ho iray eny an-tananao izy.
And thou shalt joint them together for thyself, so as that they should bind themselves into one stick; and they shall be in thine hand.
18 Ary raha miteny aminao ny zanaky ny firenenao manao hoe: Moa tsy hilaza izay hevitrao amin’ izany va ianao?
And it shall come to pass, when the children of thy people shall say to thee, Wilt thou not tell us what thou meanest by these things?
19 dia ataovy aminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Indro, Izaho haka ny tapa-kazon’ i Josefa, izay eny an-tanan’ i Efraima, sy ny firenen’ ny Isiraely namany, ary hakambako ho eo amin’ ny tapa-kazon’ i Joda izy, ary hataoko tapa-kazo iray ihany izy ka ho tonga iray eny an-tanako.
Then shalt thou say to them, Thus saith the Lord; behold, I will take the tribe of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel that belong to him, and I will add them to the tribe of Juda, and they shall become one rod in the hand of Juda.
20 Ary ny tapa-kazo izay hasianao soratra dia ho eny an-tananao eo imasony.
And the rods on which thou didst write shall be in thine hand in their presence.
21 Dia lazao aminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Indro, Izaho haka ny zanak’ Isiraely avy any amin’ ny jentilisa izay nalehany, eny, hangoniko avy any amin’ ny manodidina any izy ka ho entiko ho any amin’ ny taniny:
And thou shalt say to them, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I [will] take the whole house of Israel out of the midst of the nations, among whom they have gone, and I will gather them from all that are round about them, and I will bring them into the land of Israel.
22 ary hataoko ho firenena iray any amin’ ny tany izy, dia any an-tendrombohitry ny Isiraely, ary mpanjaka iray ihany no ho mpanjakan’ izy rehetra, ka tsy ho firenena roa intsony izy ary tsy hisaraka ho fanjakana roa intsony.
And I will make them a nation in my land, even on the mountains of Israel; and they shall have one prince: and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided any more at all into two kingdoms:
23 Ary tsy handoto tena amin’ ny sampiny, na amin’ ny fahavetavetany, na amin’ ny fahadisoany intsony izy; fa hovonjeko ho afaka amin’ ny fonenany rehetra izay nanotany izy, ary hodioviko izy, ka dia ho oloko, ary Izaho ho Andriamaniny.
that they may no more defile themselves with their idols; and I will deliver them from all their transgressions whereby they have sinned, and will cleanse them; and they shall be to me a people, and I the Lord will be to them a God.
24 Ary Davida Mpanompoko no ho Mpanjakany; ary hiray Mpiandry izy rehetra, dia handeha araka ny fitsipiko izy sady hitandrina ny lalàko sy hankatò izany.
And my servant David [shall be] a prince in the midst of them: there shall be one shepherd of [them] all; for they shall walk in mine ordinances, and keep my judgments, and do them.
25 Ary honina any amin’ ny tany izay nomeko an’ i Jakoba mpanompoko izy, dia ilay efa nonenan’ ny razanareo, ka honina any izy sy ny zanany mbamin’ ny zafiny mandrakizay; ary Davida mpanompoko no ho Mpanapaka azy mandrakizay.
And they shall dwell in their land, which I have given to my servant Jacob, where their fathers dwelt; and they shall dwell upon it: and David my servant [shall be their] prince forever.
26 Ary hanao fanekem-pihavanana ho azy Aho, ka ho fanekena mandrakizay eo aminy any, ary hametraka sy hahamaro azy Aho sady hametraka ny fitoerako masìna eo aminy mandrakizay.
And I will make with them a covenant of peace; it shall be an everlasting covenant with them; and I will establish my sanctuary in the midst of them for ever.
27 Ary ny tabernakeliko ho eo aminy; ary Izaho ho Andriamaniny, ary izy ho oloko.
And my tabernacle shall be among them; and I will be to them a God, and they shall be my people.
28 Ka dia ho fantatry ny jentilisa fa Izaho Jehovah no manamasìna ny Isiraely amin’ ny isian’ ny fitoerako masìna eo aminy mandrakizay.
And the nations shall know that I am the Lord that sanctifies them, when my sanctuary is in the midst of them for ever.
