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
Yahweh will have compassion on Jacob; he will again choose Israel and restore them into their own land. Foreigners will join with them and attach themselves 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 will bring them to their own place. Then the house of Israel will take them in the land of Yahweh as male and female servants. They will take captive those who had captured them, and they will 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,
On the day that Yahweh gives you rest from your suffering and anguish, and from the hard labor which you were required to perform,
4 dia hataonao izao oha-teny ny amin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Babylona izao: Hià! mitsahatra ilay mpampahory! Eny, tsy ao intsony ilay tanàna volamena!
you will sing this taunt song against the king of Babylon, “How the oppressor has come to an end, the proud fury ended!
5 Jehovah efa nanapatapaka ny tehin’ ny ratsy fanahy. Dia ny tehina fanapahan’ ny mpanapaka,
Yahweh has broken the staff of the wicked, the scepter of those rulers,
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 struck the peoples in wrath with unceasing blows, that ruled the nations in anger, with an attack that was unrestrained.
7 Miadana ka mandry fahizay ny tany rehetra; Velominy ao ny hoby,
The whole earth is at rest and is quiet; they begin celebrating with 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 rejoice over you with the cedars of Lebanon; they say, 'Since you are laid low, no woodcutter comes up to cut us down.'
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)
Sheol below is eager to meet you when you go there. It arouses the dead for you, all the kings of the earth, making them rise up 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 will speak and say to you, 'You have become as weak as us. You have 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)
Your pomp has been brought down to Sheol with the sound of your string instruments. Maggots are spread under you, and worms cover you.' (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 you are fallen from heaven, daystar, son of the morning! How you are cut down to the ground, you who conquered 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;
You had said in your heart, 'I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God, and I will sit on the mount of assembly, in the far reaches of the north.
14 Hiakatra ho any ambonin’ ny havoan’ ny rahona aho ka ho tahaka ny Avo Indrindra;
I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High God.'
15 Kanjo hampidinina hatrany amin’ ny fiainan-tsi-hita ho any ampara-vodilavaka ianao. (Sheol h7585)
Yet you are now brought down to Sheol, 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
Those who see you will gaze at you and they will pay attention to you. They will say, 'Is this the man who made the earth tremble, who shook kingdoms,
17 Ary nanao izao tontolo izao ho efitra sy nandrava ny tanànany Ary tsy nandefa ny mpifatotra hody?
who made the world like a wilderness, who overthrew its cities and did not let his prisoners go home?'
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, all of them lie down in honor, each one in his own tomb.
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 you are cast out of your grave like a branch thrown away. The dead cover you like a garment, those pierced by the sword, who go down to the stones of the pit.
20 Tsy halevina tahaka ireny ianao, satria efa nanimba ny taninao sady efa namono ny olonao; tsy hotononina mandrakizay ny taranaky ny mpanao ratsy!
You will not join them in burial, because you have destroyed your land and killed your people. The offspring of evildoers will never be mentioned again.”
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 your slaughter for his children, for the iniquity of their ancestors, so they will not rise up and possess the earth and fill the whole world with cities.
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.
“I will rise up against them”—this is the declaration of Yahweh of hosts. “I will cut off from Babylon name, descendant, and posterity”—this is Yahweh's declaration.
23 Ary hataoko fonenan’ ny sokina sy fihandronan’ ny rano izy, ary hofafako kifafa fandringanana izy, hoy Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro.
“I will also make her into a possession of owls, and into pools of water, and I will sweep her with the broom of destruction”—this is the declaration of Yahweh of hosts.
24 Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, efa nianiana hoe: Araka izay noheveriko no hatao aminy ary araka izay nokasaiko no hotovina aminy,
Yahweh of hosts has sworn, “Surely, as I have intended, so it will come about; and as I have purposed, so it will be:
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
I will break the Assyrian in my land, and on my mountains trample him underfoot. Then his yoke will be lifted from off them and his burden from off their shoulder.” Then his yoke will be lifted from off them and his burden from off their shoulder.”
26 Izany no fikasana ny amin’ ny tany rehetra, ary izany no tanana ahinjitra amin’ ny firenena rehetra.
This is the plan that is intended for the whole earth, and this is the hand that is raised 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 Yahweh of hosts has planned this; who will stop him? His hand is raised, and who will turn it back?
28 Tamin’ ny taona nahafatesan’ i Ahaza mpanjaka no nisy izao faminaniana ny loza hanjo izao:
In the year that king Ahaz died this declaration came:
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.
Do not rejoice, all you Philistines, that the rod that struck you is broken. For out of the serpent's root will grow out an adder, and his offspring will be a fiery flying 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.
The firstborn of the poor will graze their sheep in my pastures, and the needy will lie down in safety. I will kill your root with famine that will put to death all your survivors.
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, gate; cry, city; all of you will melt away, Philistia. For out of the north comes a cloud of smoke, and there is no straggler in his ranks.
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.
How will they respond to the messengers of that nation? “Yahweh has founded Zion, and in her the afflicted of his people will find refuge.”
