< Isaia 11 >

1 Ary hisy Solofo mitsimoka eo amin’ ny fototr’ i Jese, ary hisy mitrebona avy eo amin’ ny fakany;
A shoot will grow from the stump of Jesse, and a branch from his roots will produce fruit.
2 Ary ny fanahin’ i Jehovah hitoetra ao aminy, dia ny Fanahin’ ny fahendrena sy ny fahazavan-tsaina; Ny Fanahin’ ny fanoloran-tsaina sy ny faherezana; Ny Fanahin’ ny fahalalana sy ny fahatahorana an’ i Jehovah;
The Spirit of the Lord will rest on him, which is Spirit of wisdom and understanding, a Spirit of advice and power, a Spirit of knowledge and awe of the Lord.
3 Ary ho hanitra ankasitrahana aminy ny fahatahorana an’ i Jehovah, ka tsy hitsara araka ny hitan’ ny masony izy, na hampiaiky araka ny ren’ ny sofiny;
His happiness will be in giving reverence to the Lord. He will not judge by what he sees, and he will not make decisions based on what he hears.
4 Fa hotsarainy amin’ ny fahamarinana ny malahelo; Ary homeny rariny ny mpandefitra amin’ ny tany; hamely ny tany amin’ ny tsorakazon’ ny vavany Izy, ary ny fofonain’ ny molony no hamonoany ny ratsy fanahy.
Instead, he will judge the poor justly, and make decisions fairness on behalf of the destitute people of the earth. He will strike the earth when he pronounces judgment, and he will execute the wicked with just a word from his lips.
5 Fahamarinana no ho fisikinany, ary fanahy mahatoky no ho fehin-kibony
He will wear goodness like a sash and trustworthiness like a belt.
6 Ary ny amboadia hiara-mitoetra amin’ ny zanak’ ondry; Ny leoparda hiara-mandry amin’ ny zanak’ osy; Ary ny zanak’ omby sy ny liona tanora sy ny ombikely mifahy hiray toerana, Ary ny zazakely no hiroaka azy.
Wolves will live with lambs; leopards will lie down with young goats, calves and young lions and young livestock will be together, and a small child will lead them along.
7 Ary ny ombivavy sy ny bera hiara-komana; Ny zanany hiara-mandry; Ary ny liona hihina-mololo tahaka ny omby;
Cows and bears will graze side by side; young lions will eat straw like cattle.
8 Ny zaza minono hilalao amin’ ny lavaky ny vipera, ary ny zaza mitsaha-nono haninjitra ny tànany ao amin’ ny lavaky ny menarana.
Babies will be able to play safely near snake holes, little children will be able to put their hands into a vipers' den.
9 Ary tsy handratra na hanimba eran’ ny tendrombohitro masìna izy; Fa ny tany ho henika ny fahalalana an’ i Jehovah, tahaka ny anaronan’ ny rano ny fanambanin’ ny ranomasina.
Nothing will cause any harm or damage anywhere on my holy mountain, for the earth will be full of the knowledge of the Lord in the same way that water fills the sea.
10 Ary amin’ izany andro izany ny solofon’ i Jese, Izay hitsangana ho fanevan’ ny firenena, dia Izy no hotadiavin’ ny jentilisa; Ary ny fitoerany dia ho voninahitra.
At that time the root of Jesse will stand like a banner for the nations. Foreigners will come to him, and the place of where he lives will be glorious.
11 Ary amin’ izany andro izany ny Tompo dia mbola haninjitra ny tànany fanindroany hanavotra ny olony, izay mbola sisa, avy any Syria sy Egypta sy Patrosa sy Etiopia sy Elama sy Sinara sy Hamata Ary ny avy any amin’ ny moron-dranomasina.
At that time the Lord will act a second time to bring back the remnant of His people from Assyria, Egypt, Pathros, Ethiopia, Elam, Babylonia, Hamath, and from the Mediterranean islands.
12 Dia hanangana faneva ho an’ ny jentilisa Izy ka hamory ny Isiraely izay voaroaka sy hanangona ny Joda izay voaely Avy any amin’ ny vazan-tany efatra.
He will raise a banner for the nations and gather the exiled people of Israel; he will bring together the scattered people of Judah from the ends of the earth.
13 Ary hitsahatra ny fialonan’ i Efraima, ary hofongorana ny fandrafiana’ an i Joda: Efraima tsy hialona an’ i Joda, Ary Joda tsy handrafy an’ i Efraima.
Ephraim's jealousy will disappear, and Judah's enemies will be destroyed; Ephraim won't be jealous of Judah, and Judah won't treat Ephraim as an enemy.
14 Fa hipaoka ny tanin’ ny Filistina any andrefana ireo sy hiara-mamabo ny zanaky ny atsinanana; amin’ i Edoma sy Moaba no haninjirany ny tanany, ary ny taranak’ i Amona hanoa azy.
Together they will fly downhill to attack the Philistines to the west; they will plunder the people of the east. They will defeat Edom and Moab, and the Ammonites will become their subjects.
15 Ary Jehovah handritra ny sakeli-dranomasina Egyptiana ary haninjitra ny tànany amin’ ny ony ka hamely azy amin’ ny rivony mahamay Ka hampisaraka azy hisampana fito Ary hahatafita ny olona tsy miala kapa.
The Lord will divide the Gulf of Suez; he will wave his hand over the Euphrates River creating a scorching wind. He will split into seven streams that people can cross easily on foot.
16 Ary hisy lalana voavoatra halehan’ ny olony sisa, izay sisa avy any Asyria, dia toy ny ho an’ ny Isiraely tamin’ ny andro niakarany avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta.
There will be a highway from Assyria for the remnant of his people that are left, just as there was for Israel when they left the land of Egypt.
