Isaia 14
1 Fa Jehovah hamindra fo amin’ i Jakoba, ary mbola hifidy ny Isiraely indray ka hamponina azy ao amin’ ny taniny; ary ny vahiny hikambana aminy, ary ny taranak’ i Jakoba ho namany
For Jehovah will have compassion upon Jacob, And will again set his love upon Israel, And cause them to rest in his own land. And strangers shall join themselves to them, And cleave to the house of Jacob.
2 Dia haka azy ny firenena ka hanatitra azy hody; ary ny taranak’ Isiraely hanana azy ho ankizilahiny sy ankizivaviny ao amin’ ny tanin’ i Jehovah; dia ho tonga mpamabo izay namabo azy izy; ary hampanompo izay nampahory azy.
The nations shall take them and bring them to their own place; And the house of Israel shall possess them, in the land of Jehovah, As servants and as handmaids; They shall take captive their captors, And they shall rule over their oppressors.
3 Ary amin’ ny andro hanomezan’ i Jehovah fitsaharana anao ho afaka amin’ ny fahorianao sy ny fitebitebin’ ny fonao ary ny fanompoana mafy izay nampanompoana anao,
So when Jehovah shall have given thee rest From thy sorrow and thy distress, And from the hard bondage Which was laid upon thee,
4 dia hataonao izao oha-teny ny amin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona izao: Hià! mitsahatra ilay mpampahory! Eny, tsy ao intsony ilay tanàna volamena!
Then shall thou utter this song over the king of Babylon, and say, “How hath the tyrant fallen, The oppression ceased!
5 Jehovah efa nanapatapaka ny tehin’ ny ratsy fanahy. Dia ny tehina fanapahan’ ny mpanapaka,
Jehovah hath broken the staff of the wicked, The rod of the tyrants,
6 Izay namely firenena tamin’ ny fahatezerana, tamin’ ny famelezana tsy nanam-pitsaharana, sady nampanompo firenena tamin’ ny fahatezerana, tamin’ ny fanenjehana tsy misy antra.
That smote the people in anger, With a continual stroke, That lorded it over the nations in wrath With unremitted oppression.
7 Miadana ka mandry fahizay ny tany rehetra; Velominy ao ny hoby,
The whole earth is at rest, is quiet; They break forth into singing.
8 Eny, ny hazo kypreso sy ny sedera any Libanona hifaly anao hoe: Hatrizay niambohoanao izay dia tsy nisy mpikapa niakatra tatỳ aminay.
Even the cypress-trees exult over thee, And the cedars of Lebanon: 'Since thou art fallen, No feller cometh up against us.'
9 Taitra ny fiainan-tsi-hita any ambany noho ny aminao mba hitsena anao amin’ ny fihavianao; Mamoha ny matoatoa hitsena anao izy, dia ireny bibilahy rehetra tambonin’ ny tany; Aingainy hiala amin’ ny seza fiandrianana ny mpanjakan’ ny firenena rehetra. (Sheol h7585)
The under-world is in commotion on account of thee, To meet thee at thy coming; It stirreth up before thee the shades, all the mighty of the earth; It arouseth from their thrones all the kings of the nations; (Sheol h7585)
10 Izy rehetra samy hiteny aminao hoe: Hay! ianao koa mba efa osa tahaka anay! Efa tonga tahaka anay ianao!
They all accost thee, and say, 'Art thou, too, become weak as we? Art thou become like us?'
11 Efa navarina ho etỳ amin’ ny fiainan-tsi-hita ny tabihanao mbamin’ ny feon’ ny valihanao; Kankana no ilafihanao, ary olitra no mandrakotra anao. (Sheol h7585)
Thy pomp is brought down to the grave, And the sound of thy harps. Vermin have become thy couch, And worms thy covering. (Sheol h7585)
12 Endrey! latsaka avy tany an-danitra ianao, ry ilay fitarik’ andro, zanaky ny maraina; Voakapa hianjera amin’ ny tany ianao, ry ilay mpandripaka firenena.
How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How art thou cast down to the ground, Thou that didst trample upon the nations!
13 Ary ianao efa nanao anakampo hoe: Any an-danitra no hiakarako, ary ambonin’ ny kintan’ Andriamanitra no hanandratako ny seza fiandrianako; Dia hipetraka eo an-tendrombohitra; fivoriana any am-parany avaratra aho;
Thou saidst in thy heart, 'I will ascend to heaven, Above the stars of God will I exalt my throne; I will sit upon the mount of assembly in the recesses of the north.
14 Hiakatra ho any ambonin’ ny havoan’ ny rahona aho ka ho tahaka ny Avo Indrindra;
I will ascend above the height of the clouds; I will be like the Most High.'
15 Kanjo hampidinina hatrany amin’ ny fiainan-tsi-hita ho any ampara-vodilavaka ianao. (Sheol h7585)
But thou art brought down to the grave, To the depths of the pit. (Sheol h7585)
16 Izay mahita anao hibanjina anao sy hihevitra anao hoe: Moa io va ilay lehilahy nampihorohoro ny tany sy nampihozongozona ny fanjakana
They that see thee gaze upon thee, and view thee attentively, (and say, ) 'Is this the man that made the earth tremble, That shook kingdoms,
17 Ary nanao izao tontolo izao ho efitra sy nandrava ny tanànany Ary tsy nandefa ny mpifatotra hody?
That made the world a wilderness, And laid waste its cities, And sent not his captives to their homes?'
18 Ny mpanjaka rehetra amin’ ny firenena samy mandry amin’ ny voninahitra avokoa, ary samy ao am-pasany avy;
All the kings of the nations, yea, all of them, Lie down in glory, each in his own sepulchre;
19 Fa ianao kosa dia nariana niala lavitra ny fasanao, tahaka ny solofon-kazo ratsy izay ariana, sady voatsindrin’ ny fatin’ ny voavono ianao, dia ireo voatrabaky ny sabatra, ka midìna ho ao amin’ ny vato ao an-davaka, tahaka ny faty hitsakitsahin’ ny tongotra.
But thou art cast forth without a grave, Like a worthless branch; Covered with the slain, who are pierced by the sword, Who go down to the stones of the pit, Like a carcass trampled under foot.
20 Tsy halevina tahaka ireny ianao, satria efa nanimba ny taninao sady efa namono ny olonao; tsy hotononina mandrakizay ny taranaky ny mpanao ratsy!
Thou shalt not be joined with them in the grave, Because thou hast destroyed thy country, And slain thy people; The race of evil-doers shall nevermore be named.
21 Manamboara famonoana hamelezana ny zanany noho ny heloky ny razany; tsy hitsangana hanana ny tany izy, Na hanorina tanana eran’ izao tontolo izao.
Prepare ye slaughter for his children, For the iniquity of their fathers, That they may no more arise, and possess the earth, And fill the world with enemies!”
22 Fa hitsangana hamely azy aho, hoy Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, ary hofoanako ny anaran’ i Babylona sy izay sisa ao mbamin’ ny zanany sy ny taranany, hoy Jehovah.
For I will arise against them, saith Jehovah of hosts, And I will cut off from Babylon the name and remnant, Posterity and offspring, saith Jehovah.
23 Ary hataoko fonenan’ ny sokina sy fihandronan’ ny rano izy, ary hofafako kifafa fandringanana izy, hoy Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro.
I will make her the possession of the porcupine, and pools of water; Yea, I will sweep her away with the besom of destruction, saith Jehovah of hosts.
24 Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, efa nianiana hoe: Araka izay noheveriko no hatao aminy ary araka izay nokasaiko no hotovina aminy,
Jehovah of hosts hath sworn, saying, Surely, as I have devised, so shall it come to pass, The purpose which I have formed, that shall stand,
25 Dia ny hanorotoro ny Asyriana ao amin’ ny taniko, ary ny hanitsakitsaka azy eny an-tendrombohitro; ny zioga fitondrany dia hiala amin’ ireo, ary ny entany ho afaka amin’ ny sorony
To crush the Assyrian in my land, And to trample him on my mountains. Then shall his yoke depart from them, And his burden be removed from their shoulders.
26 Izany no fikasana ny amin’ ny tany rehetra, ary izany no tanana ahinjitra amin’ ny firenena rehetra.
This is the purpose which is formed concerning all the earth, And this the hand which is stretched out over all the nations.
27 Fa Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, no efa nikasa, ka iza indray no hahafoana izany? Ary ny tànany dia voahinjitra, ka iza no hampihemotra izany?
For Jehovah of hosts hath decreed, and who shall disannul it? And his hand is stretched out, and who shall turn it back?
28 Tamin’ ny taona nahafatesan’ i Ahaza mpanjaka no nisy izao faminaniana ny loza hanjo izao:
In the year in which Ahaz the king died came this prophecy.
29 Aza mifaly, ry Filistia rehetra, saingy tapaka ny tsorakazo namely anao; fa avy ao an-kibon’ ny bibilava no hihavian’ ny menarana, ary ny aterany ho tonga menaran’ afo manidina.
Rejoice not, all Philistia, Because the rod that smote thee is broken, For from the root of a serpent shall come forth a basilisk, And his fruit shall be a flying, fiery serpent.
30 Ny faraidina indrindra hihinana, ary ny mahantra handry fahizay; Fa hataoko maty mosary kosa izay tsy ringana aminao, eny, izay sisa aminao ho matiny.
Then shall the most wretched of the poor feed quietly, And the needy shall lie down in security; For I will kill thy root with famine, And thy remnant shall be slain.
31 Midradradradrà, ry vavahady, ary mitaraina, ry tanàna; Aoka ho ketraka avokoa ianao, ry Filistia! Fa misy setroka mitranga avy any avaratra, ary tsy misy miala amin’ ny laharany akory ny miaramilany.
Howl, O gate! cry aloud, O city! O Philistia, thou meltest away in terror! For from the north cometh a smoke, And there is no straggler in their hosts.
32 Ary inona moa no valiny ho entin’ ny iraky ny jentilisa? Izao: Jehovah efa nanorina an’ i Ziona, ary ao no hialofan’ izay olony ory.
What answer shall be given to the messengers of the nations? That Jehovah hath founded Zion, And in her shall the poor of his people find refuge.
