Habakoka 2
1 Hitsangana eo ambonin’ ny fitazanako aho Ary hijoro eo ambonin’ ny manda, Hiandry hahitako izay holazainy amiko Sy izay havaliko amin’ ny fitarainako.
I will stand on my watch-tower, And set myself on the bulwark, And watch to see what he will say to me, And what I shall answer to my expostulation.
2 Dia namaly ahy Jehovah ka nanao hoe: Soraty ny fahitana, ka ataovy velona tsara ny soratra eo amin’ ny fàfana, Mba ho azon’ ny mihazakazaka hovakina aza.
And Jehovah answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tablets, That he may run that readeth it.
3 Fa ny fahitana dia mbola ho amin’ ny fotoan’ andro, Ary mikendry ny farany izy ka tsy ho diso; Eny, na dia mitaredretra aza izy, andraso ihany, Fa ho avy tokoa izy ka tsy hijanona.
For the vision is yet for an appointed time, But it hasteneth to the end; it shall not deceive; If it tarry, wait for it; For it shall surely come; it shall not long delay.
4 Indro, feno avonavona ny fanahin’ ireny, fa tsy mahitsy ao anatiny, Fa ny marina ho velon’ ny finoany.
Behold, the soul of him that is puffed up shall not be at ease; But the just shall live by his faithfulness.
5 Ary koa, mamitaka ny divay; Ny olona miavonavona tsy mba mahatoetra, Dia ilay mitanatana vava tahaka ny fiainan-tsi-hita, Eny, toy ny fahafatesana, ka tsy mety voky, Fa manangona ny firenena rehetra ho ao aminy Sy mamory ny olona rehetra ho ao aminy. (Sheol h7585)
Behold, the man of wine is outrageous; The proud man remaineth not at rest; He enlargeth his desire as the grave; He is as death, and cannot be satisfied; He gathereth to himself all the nations, And collecteth to himself all the kingdoms. (Sheol h7585)
6 Tsy hanao oha-teny hamelezana azy va ireto rehetra ireto? Tsy hanao eson-teny sy fitenenana hanoherana azy va izy ka hanao hoe: Lozan’ izay mahery mandroaka ny tsy azy! Mandra-pahoviana! dia ilay mivesatra ny zavatra nalaina ho tsatòka
Shall not all of them utter a song against him, Yea, songs of reproach and derision concerning him? And say, Woe to him that heapeth up that which belongeth not to him! For how long a time? That ladeth himself with goods taken in pledge!
7 Tsy hitsangana tampoka va izay hanaikitra anao, Ary tsy hifoha va izay hanaitaitra anao, Ka ho babony ianao?
Shall not they suddenly rise up that will oppress thee, And awake, that will harass thee? Yea, thou shalt be their booty.
8 Fa efa namabo firenena maro ianao, Ka dia mba hobaboin’ ny sisa rehetra amin’ ny firenena kosa, Noho ny ran’ ny olona sy ny fandozana natao tamin’ ny tany, Dia tamin’ ny tanàna sy ny mponina rehetra ao aminy.
Because thou hast plundered many kingdoms, All the residue of the nations shall plunder thee: For the blood of men, and for violence against the land, Against the city and all its inhabitants.
9 Lozan’ izay fatra-pila harena amin’ ny tsy marina ho an’ ny taranany, Hanaovany ny akaniny any amin’ ny avo, Mba tsy ho tratry ny tanan’ ny loza
Woe to him that procureth unjust gain for his house, That he may set his nest on high, That he may be delivered from the evil hand!
10 Efa namoron-tsaina izay hahatonga henatra ho an’ ny taranakao ianao, Dia ny handringanana firenena maro; Ary nankahà-doza hihatra amin’ ny ainao ianao.
Thou hast devised shame for thine house; By destroying many nations, thou hast brought ruin upon thyself.
11 Fa hitaraina ny vato ao amin’ ny rindrina, Ary ny sakamandimby ao amin’ ny trano no hamaly azy.
For the stone from the wall crieth out, And the beam from the timber answereth it.
12 Lozan’ izay manao vohitra amin’ ny fandatsahan-drà Sy manorina tanàna amin’ ny heloka!
Woe to him that buildeth a town by blood, And establisheth a city by iniquity!
13 Indro, tsy avy amin’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, va no hiasan’ ny olona ho an’ ny afo, Sy hisasaran’ ny firenena noho ny zava-poana?
Behold, it is determined by Jehovah of hosts, That nations shall labor for the fire, And kingdoms weary themselves for naught.
14 Fa ny tany ho feno ny fahalalana ny voninahitr’ i Jehovah, Toy ny fanaron’ ny rano ny fanambanin’ ny ranomasina.
For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of Jehovah, As the waters cover the sea.
15 Lozan’ izay mampisotro divay ny namany Dia ianao izay manampy fahatezerana ka mampahamano azy, Mba hijery ny fitanjahany;
Woe to him who giveth his neighbor drink; Who poureth out the strong wine, and maketh him drunken, That he may look upon his nakedness!
16 Efa feno henatra ianao, fa tsy voninahitra; Mba sotroy koa, ka mitanjaha; Hatolotra anao ny kapoaka eny an-tanana ankavanan’ i Jehovah, Ary fahamenarana no ho amin’ ny voninahitrao.
Thou shalt be filled with shame instead of glory; Drink thou also, and show thy foreskin! To thee shall come the cup in the right hand of Jehovah, And foul shame shall be upon thy glory.
17 Fa hanody anao ny loza natao tamin’ i Libanona Sy ny fandringanana mahatahotra namelezana ny biby, Noho ny ran’ ny olona sy ny loza natao tamin’ ny tany, Dia tamin’ ny tanàna sy ny mponina rehetra ao aminy.
For the violence done to Lebanon shall cover thee, And the destruction of the beasts which made them afraid, On account of the blood of men, and violence against the land, Against the city and all its inhabitants.
18 Mahasoa inona ny sarin-javatra voasokitra, No misokitra azy ny mpanao azy? Na ny sarin-javatra an-idina sy ny mpampianatra lainga, No matoky azy izay namorona azy Tamin’ ny nanaovany sampy moana?
What profiteth the graven image, When the maker hath graven it? Or the molten image, and the teacher of lies, That the artificer trusteth in his work, When he maketh dumb idols?
19 Lozan’ izay manao amin’ ny hazo hoe: Mifohaza! Ary amin’ ny vato moana hoe: Mitsangàna! Hampianatra va ireo? He! voapetaka takela-bolamena sy volafotsy ihany izy, Nefa tsy misy fanahy akory ao anatiny.
Woe to him who saith to the wood, Awake! To the dumb stone, Arise! Will it teach? Behold, it is overlaid with gold and silver, And there is no breath within it.
20 Jehovah dia ao amin’ ny tempoliny masìna; Mangìna eo anatrehany, ry tany rehetra!
But Jehovah is in his Holy temple; Be silent before him, all the earth!
