< Isaia 10 >

1 Lozan’ izay mamorona fikasana tsy marina sy izay mpanoratra manoratra fampahoriana,
Woe unto them that decree unrighteous decrees, and to the writers that write perverseness:
2 Hampialany ny mahantra amin’ ny fitsarana sy hanalany ny rariny amin’ izay ory eo amin’ ny oloko, Handrobany ny mpitondratena sy hamaboany ny kamboty!
to turn aside the needy from judgment, and to take away the right of the poor of my people, that widows may be their spoil, and that they may make the fatherless their prey!
3 Ary ahoana no hataonareo amin’ ny andro famaliana sy amin’ ny fandravana izay avy amin’ ny lavitra? Ho any amin’ iza no handosiranareo hamonjy anareo? Ary aiza no hametrahanareo ny harenareo?
And what will ye do in the day of visitation, and in the desolation which shall come from far? to whom will ye flee for help? and where will ye leave your glory?
4 Tsy misy azony atao afa-tsy ny mihohoka voatsindrin’ ny mpifatotra sy ny lavo voatsindrin’ ny voavono. Kanefa, na dia izany rehetra izany aza, dia tsy mbola afaka ihany ny fahatezerany, Fa mbola mihinjitra ihany ny tànany.
They shall only bow down under the prisoners, and shall fall under the slain. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
5 Endrey! ry Asyria, tsorakazon’ ny fahatezerako ô, Eny, tehina eny an-tànany ny fahavinirako!
Ho Assyrian, the rod of mine anger, the staff in whose hand is mine indignation!
6 Hamely firenena mihatsaravelatsihy no anirahako azy, ary hamely ny firenena izay iharan’ ny fahatezerako no andidiako azy, hamabo sy handroba ary hanao azy ho fanitsakitsaka tahaka ny fotaka eny an-dalambe.
I will send him against a profane nation, and against the people of my wrath will I give him a charge, to take the spoil, and to take the prey, and to tread them down like the mire of the streets.
7 Kanjo tsy izany no kasainy, ary tsy izany no heverin’ ny fony; Fa ny handringana sy ny hamongotra firenena tsy vitsy no ao am-pony.
Howbeit he meaneth not so, neither doth his heart think so; but it is in his heart to destroy, and to cut off nations not a few.
8 Fa hoy izy: Tsy mpanjaka avokoa va ireny governorako ireny?
For he saith, Are not my princes all of them kings?
9 Tsy tahaka an’ i Karkemisy va Kalno? Tsy tahaka an’ i Arpada va Hamata? Ary tsy tahaka an’ i Damaskosy va Samaria?
Is not Calno as Carchemish? is not Hamath as Arpad? is not Samaria as Damascus?
10 Tahaka ny nahatraran’ ny tanako ny fanjakan’ ny andriamani-tsi-izy, na dia nihoatra noho ny an’ i Jerosalema sy ny an’ i Samaria aza ny sampin’ ireo,
As my hand hath found the kingdoms of the idols, whose graven images did excel them of Jerusalem and of Samaria;
11 Dia tsy tahaka ny nataoko tamin’ i Samaria sy ny andriamanini-tsi-izy va no hataoko amin’ i Jerosalema sy ny sampiny koa?
shall I not, as I have done unto Samaria and her idols, so do to Jerusalem and her idols?
12 Kanefa rehefa vitan’ ny Tompo ny asany rehetra ao an-tendrombohitra Ziona sy Jerosalema, dia hovaliany kosa ny vokatry ny fiavonavonan’ ny fon’ ny mpanjakan’ i Asyria sy ny reharehan’ ny fiandranandran’ ny masony;
Wherefore it shall come to pass, that when the Lord hath performed his whole work upon mount Zion and on Jerusalem, I will punish the fruit of the stout heart of the king of Assyria, and the glory of his high looks.
13 Fa izy manao hoe: Tamin’ ny herin’ ny tanako no nanaovako izany, sy tamin’ ny fahendreko, fa mahira-tsaina aho; Ary nanaisotra ny faritanin’ ny firenena aho sady namabo ny hareny, ary tahaka ny famotraky ny ombilahy no namotrahako mpanapaka;
For he hath said, By the strength of my hand I have done it, and by my wisdom; for I am prudent: and I have removed the bounds of the peoples, and have robbed their treasures, and I have brought down as a valiant man them that sit [on thrones]:
14 Ary tahaka ny fakàna ny ao amin’ ny akanim-borona no nakan’ ny tanako ny haren’ ny firenena; Ary tahaka ny famory atody nilaozan-dreniny no namoriako ny any amin’ ny tany rehetra, Ka tsy nisy nikopaka elatra, na nisoka-bava, na nikiakiaka.
and my hand hath found as a nest the riches of the peoples; and as one gathereth eggs that are forsaken, have I gathered all the earth: and there was none that moved the wing, or that opened the mouth, or chirped.
15 Ny famaky va hirehareha amin’ izay mikapa aminy? Ny tsofa va hiavonavona amin’ izay manatsofa aminy? Toy ny tsorakazo, raha manetsika izay manainga azy! Ary toy ny tehina, raha manandratra ny tompony!
Shall the axe boast itself against him that heweth therewith? shall the saw magnify itself against him that shaketh it? as if a rod should shake them that lift it up, or as if a staff should lift up [him that is] not wood.
16 Koa izany no anateran’ ny Tompo, dia ny Tompon’ ny maro, fahahiazana amin’ ny tremalahiny; Ary ao ambanin’ ny voninahiny dia hisy mirehitra toy ny firehitry ny afo.
Therefore shall the Lord, the Lord of hosts, send among his fat ones leanness; and under his glory there shall be kindled a burning like the burning of fire.
17 Ary ny fahazavan’ ny Isiraely ho tonga afo, ary ny Iray Masiny ho tonga lelafo, ka hodorany ho levona indray andro monja ny tsilony sy ny heriny;
And the light of Israel shall be for a fire, and his Holy One for a flame: and it shall burn and devour his thorns and his briers in one day.
18 Ary ny voninahitry ny alany sy ny sahany mahavokatra dia holevoniny, na ny fanahiny, na ny nofony, ka ho tahaka ny fifezak’ izay marary mafy izany.
And he shall consume the glory of his forest, and of his fruitful field, both soul and body: and it shall be as when a standardbearer fainteth.
19 Ary ho vitsy ny hazo sisa any an’ alany, ka na dia izay mbola zaza aza hahasoratra azy.
And the remnant of the trees of his forest shall be few, that a child may write them.
20 Ary amin’ izany andro izany ny Isiraely sisa, izay tsy ringana amin’ ny taranak’ i Jakoba, dia tsy hiankina amin’ izay namely azy intsony; Fa Jehovah, Iray Masin’ ny Isiraely, ihany no hiankinany marina tokoa.
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the remnant of Israel, and they that are escaped of the house of Jacob, shall no more again stay upon him that smote them; but shall stay upon the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, in truth.
21 Ary izay sisa amin’ i Jakoba dia hiverina ho amin’ Andriamanitra Mahery.
A remnant shall return, [even] the remnant of Jacob, unto the mighty God.
22 Fa na dia tahaka ny fasika any amin’ ny ranomasina aza ny isan’ ny Isiraely olonao, dia izay sisa aminy ihany no hiverina; Voatendry ny fandringanana izay hanafotra ho famaliana marina;
For though thy people Israel be as the sand of the sea, [only] a remnant of them shall return: a consumption [is] determined, overflowing with righteousness.
23 Fa fahafonganana voatendry no hataon’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Ao amin’ ny tany.
For a consummation, and that determined, shall the Lord, the LORD of hosts, make in the midst of all the earth.
24 Koa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro: Ry oloko, izay monina any Ziona, Aza matahotra ny Asyriana, raha mamely anao amin’ ny tsorakazo izy ary manainga ny tehina aminao, tahaka ny fanao tany Egypta;
Therefore thus saith the Lord, the LORD of hosts, O my people that dwellest in Zion, be not afraid of the Assyrian: though he smite thee with the rod, and lift up his staff against thee, after the manner of Egypt.
25 Fa rehefa afaka vetivety, dia hitsahatra ny fahavinirana, ary ny fahatezerako dia handringana azy kosa.
For yet a very little while, and the indignation shall be accomplished, and mine anger, in their destruction.
26 Eny, Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, hamely azy amin’ ny kotopia, tahaka ny namelezana ny Midiana teo am-batolampy Oreba; ary ny tsorakazony haingainy eny ambonin’ ny ranomasina ka hatsangany tahaka ny fanao tany Egypta.
And the LORD of hosts shall stir up against him a scourge, as in the slaughter of Midian at the rock of Oreb: and his rod shall be over the sea, and he shall lift it up after the manner of Egypt.
27 Ary amin’ izany andro izany dia ho afaka eo an-tsorokao ny entany ary ny bao fitondrany ho afaka amin’ ny vozonao, ary ho tapaka ny bao fitondrana noho ny fihatavezany.
And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall depart from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing.
28 Injao! tonga any Aiata izy, mamaky an’ i Migrona izy ary mametraka ny entany ao Mikmasy,
He is come to Aiath, he is passed through Migron; at Michmash he layeth up his baggage:
29 Mihoatra ao an-kadilanana izy Ao Geba isika no handry, hoy izy; Mangovitra Rama, mandositra Gibean’ i Saoly;
they are gone over the pass; they have taken up their lodging at Geba: Ramah trembleth; Gibeah of Saul is fled.
30 Mikiakiaha mafy, ry zanakavavin’ i Galima, Mampandria sofina, ry Laisy. Indrisy, ry Anatota mahantra!
Cry aloud with thy voice, O daughter of Gallim! hearken, O Laishah! O thou poor Anathoth!
31 Lasa mandositra Madmena, ny mponina any Gebima mitondra ny entany mandositra.
Madmenah is a fugitive; the inhabitants of Gebim gather themselves to flee.
32 Anio izy mbola mitoetra any Noba, Maninjitra ny tànany manambana ny tendrombohitr’ i Ziona zanakavavy, dia ny havoan’ i Jerosalema.
This very day shall he halt at Nob: he shaketh his hand at the mount of the daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem.
33 Indro, Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, manapaka ny rantsany madinika amin’ ny heriny mahatahotra; Ary izay mijoaka lava no voakapa, ary izay avo no aetry;
Behold, the Lord, the LORD of hosts, shall lop the boughs with terror: and the high ones of stature shall be hewn down, and the lofty shall be brought low.
34 Ary kapaina vy ny ala mikirindro, ary Libanona dia alamaky ny iray Mahery.
And he shall cut down the thickets of the forest with iron, and Lebanon shall fall by a mighty one.
