< Isaia 19 >
1 Indro, Jehovah mitaingina rahona miriotra mafy ka mankany Egypta; Ary ny andriamani-tsi-izy any Egypta dia mangorohoro eo anatrehany, ary ny fon’ i Egypta dia ketraka ao anatiny.
The burden of Egypt. Behold, the LORD rideth upon a swift cloud, and will come into Egypt: and the idols of Egypt shall be moved at his presence, and the heart of Egypt shall melt in the midst of it.
2 Ary hamporisihiko hiady izy samy Egyptiana, ka samy hiady amin’ ny rahalahiny avy sy amin’ ny namany avy izy; Ny tanàna hiady amin’ ny tanàna, ary ny fanjakana amin’ ny fanjakana.
And I will set the Egyptians against the Egyptians: and they shall fight every one against his brother, and every one against his neighbor; city against city, [and] kingdom against kingdom.
3 Ary ho very hevitra ny Egyptiana; Eny, hofoanako ny saina ataony; Ary hila saina amin’ ny andriamani-tsi-izy sy amin’ ny mpibitsibitsika amin’ ny odiny izy sy amin’ ny manao azy ho tsindrian-javatra ary amin’ ny mpanao sikidy.
And the spirit of Egypt shall fail in the midst of her, and I will destroy her counsel: and they shall seek to the idols, and to the charmers, and to them that have familiar spirits, and to the wizards.
4 Ary Egypta dia hatolotro hogiazana amin’ izay fitondrana mafy, ary mpanjaka masiaka no hanjaka aminy, hoy Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro.
And the Egyptians will I give over into the hand of a cruel lord; and a fierce king shall rule over them, saith the Lord, the LORD of hosts.
5 Ny rano amin’ ny ranomasina ho tankina, ary ny ony ho ritra ka ho maina;
And the waters shall fail from the sea, and the rivers shall be wasted and dried up.
6 Ho maimbo ny sampantsampan’ ny ony; Ary ny lahin-dranon’ i Egypta hihena ka ho maina; Ny volotara sy ny zozoro halazo;
And they shall turn the rivers far away; [and] the brooks of defense shall be emptied and dried up: the reeds and flags shall wither.
7 Ny tany eny amoron’ i Neily sy ny tanimbary rehetra eny amoron’ i Neily samy ho maina sy hanjary vovoka ka tsy ho eo intsony.
The paper-reeds by the brooks, by the mouth of the brooks, and every thing sown by the brooks, shall wither, be driven away, and be no [more].
8 Dia hitomany ny mpaka hazandrano, ary hisaona ny mpamintana rehetra ao Neily, Ary ho reraka ny mpandatsaka harato amin’ ny rano.
The fishers also shall mourn, and all they that cast angle into the brooks shall lament, and they that spread nets upon the waters shall languish.
9 Ho very fanantenana izay mandraotra rongony amin’ ny fihogo sy izay manenona hariry.
Moreover they that work in fine flax, and they that weave net-works shall be confounded.
10 Ny andrin’ ny tany ho torotoro, ary ny mpikarama rehetra halahelo.
And they shall be broken in the purposes thereof, all that make sluices [and] ponds for fish.
11 Efa adala mihitsy ny mpanapaka any Zoana; Hevi-poana no avoak’ izay hendry indrindra amin’ ny mpanolotsain’ i Farao; Ahoana no ilazanareo amin’ i Farao hoe: Zanak’ olon-kendry aho sady taranak’ ireo mpanjaka fahagola?
Surely the princes of Zoan [are] fools, the counsel of the wise counselors of Pharaoh is become brutish: how say ye to Pharaoh, I [am] the son of the wise, the son of ancient kings?
12 Aiza ary ireo olon-kendrinao ireo? Aoka hanambara aminao izy, ary aoka ho fantany izay nokasain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, hatao amin’ i Egypta.
Where [are] they? where [are] thy wise [men]? and let them tell thee now, and let them know what the LORD of hosts hath purposed upon Egypt.
13 Efa adala ny mpanapaka any Zoana, efa voafitaka ny mpanapaka any Memfisa; Ary efa nampivembena an’ i Egypta ireo fehizoron’ ny fireneny.
The princes of Zoan are become fools, the princes of Noph are deceived; they have also seduced Egypt, [even they that are] the support of its tribes.
14 Jehovah efa nampidina fanahy mampandraingiraingy teo Egypta; ka efa nampivembena azy tamin’ ny asany rehetra ireo, dia tahaka ny olona mamo miraingiraingy sady mandoa.
The LORD hath mingled a perverse spirit in the midst of it: and they have caused Egypt to err in every work of it, as a drunken [man] staggereth in his vomit.
15 Samy tsy hahatontosa ny asany ny Egyptiana, na ny loha na ny rambo, na ny sampan-drofia na ny zozoro.
Neither shall there be [any] work for Egypt, which the head or tail, branch or rush, may perform.
16 Amin’ izany andro izany dia ho tahaka ny vehivavy Egypta ka ho toran-kovitra sy ho raiki-tahotra noho ny faninjitr’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, ny tànany, izay ahinjiny hamelezany azy.
In that day shall Egypt be like women: and it shall be afraid and fear because of the shaking of the hand of the LORD of hosts, which he shaketh over it.
17 Ary ny tanin’ ny Joda dia ho fahatahoran’ i Egypta, ka na oviana na oviana no misy miresaka izany aminy dia ho raiki-tahotra izy noho ny fikasan’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, izay kasainy ny amin’ ny hamelezana azy.
And the land of Judah shall be a terror to Egypt, every one that maketh mention of it shall be afraid in himself, because of the counsel of the LORD of hosts, which he hath determined against it.
18 Amin’ izany andro izany dia hisy tanana dimy amin’ ny tany Egypta samy hiteny ny fitenin’ i Kanana sy hianiana ho an’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro; Ny anankiray hatao hoe Ira-haresa.
In that day shall five cities in the land of Egypt speak the language of Canaan, and swear to the LORD of hosts; one shall be called, The city of destruction.
19 Amin’ izany andro izany dia hisy alitara ho an’ i Jehovah eo amin’ ny tany Egypta sy tsangam-bato eo an-tsisiny ho an’ i Jehovah.
In that day shall there be an altar to the LORD in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a pillar at its border to the LORD.
20 Ary ho famantarana sy vavolombelona ho an’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, ao amin’ ny tany Egypta izany; Fa hitaraina amin’ i Jehovah noho ny mpampahory izy, ary haniraka mpamonjy sy mpiaro ho ao aminy Izy ka hamonjy azy.
And it shall be for a sign and for a witness to the LORD of hosts in the land of Egypt: for they shall cry to the LORD because of the oppressors, and he shall send them a savior, and a great one, and he shall deliver them.
21 Ary Jehovah hanao izay hahafantaran’ ny Egyptiana Azy, ary ny Egyptiana kosa hahalala an’ i Jehovah amin’ izany andro izany; Dia hanompo Azy amin’ ny fanatitra alatsa-drà sy amin’ ny fanatitra hohanina izy ka hivoady amin’ i Jehovah sady hanefa ny voadiny.
And the LORD shall be known to Egypt, and the Egyptians shall know the LORD in that day, and shall do sacrifice and oblation; yes, they shall vow a vow to the LORD, and perform [it].
22 Ary Jehovah hamely ny Egyptiana, eny, fa sady hamely Izy no hanasitrana; Dia hiverina ho any amin’ i Jehovah ireo, ka hekeny ny fangatahany, ary hositraniny izy.
And the LORD will smite Egypt: he will smite and heal [it]: and they shall return [even] to the LORD, and he will be entreated by them, and will heal them.
23 Amin’ izany andro izany dia hisy lalambe avy any Egypta mankany Asyria, koa ny Asyriana dia hankany Egypta, ary ny Egyptiana kosa hankany Asyria, ary ny Egyptiana sy ny Asyriana hiara-mivavaka.
In that day shall there be a highway from Egypt to Assyria, and the Assyrian shall come into Egypt, and the Egyptian into Assyria, and the Egyptians shall serve with the Assyrians.
24 Amin’ izany andro izany ny Isiraely no ho fahatelony amin’ i Egypta sy Asyria ho fitahiana eo amin’ ny tany;
In that day shall Israel be the third with Egypt and with Assyria, [even] a blessing in the midst of the land:
25 Fa hotahin’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, ireo ka hataony hoe: Hotahina anie Egypta oloko, sy Asyria, asan’ ny tanako, ary Isiraely lovako.
Whom the LORD of hosts will bless, saying, Blessed [be] Egypt my people, and Assyria the work of my hands, and Israel my inheritance.
