Isaia 2
1 Ny teny izay hitan’ Isaia, zanak’ i Amoza, ny amin’ ny Joda sy Jerosalema.
This is the vision that Isaiah, son of Amoz, saw about Judah and Jerusalem.
2 Ary izao no ho tonga any am-parany: Ny tendrombohitra misy ny tranon’ i Jehovah dia haorina eo an-tampon’ ny tendrombohitra Ary hasandratra ho avo noho ny havoana; Ary ny jentilisa rehetra hitanjozotra hankany.
In the last days the mountain where the Lord's Temple stands will be recognized as the highest of all mountains, rising above other hills. Many from the other nations will travel to it.
3 Eny, maro ny firenena no hiainga ka hanao hoe: Andeha isika hiakatra any an-tendrombohitr’ i Jehovah, Ho any an-tranon’ Andriamanitr’ i Jakoba, Mba hampianarany antsika ny amin’ ny lalany, Ka handehanantsika amin’ ny atorony; Fa avy any Ziona no hivoahan’ ny lalàna, Ary avy any Jerosalema ny tenin’ i Jehovah.
People will come and say, “Let's go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the Temple of the God of Jacob. There God will teach us his ways and we will follow his directions. God's teachings will spread out from Zion, his word from Jerusalem.”
4 Ary hitsara ny adin’ ny jentilisa Izy Ka hampiaiky firenena maro; Dia hanefy ny sabany ho fangady ireny, Ary ny lefony ho fanetezam-boaloboka; Ny firenena tsy hanainga sabatra hifamely Na hianatra ady intsony
The Lord will decide the cases of the nations; he will settle arguments between nations. They will hammer their swords and turn them into plough blades, and their spears into pruning hooks. Nations will not fight against each other anymore; they will no longer learn methods of warfare.
5 Ry taranak’ i Jakoba, Avia, ary aoka isika handeha amin’ ny fahazavan’ i Jehovah.
Come, you Israelites, let's walk in the Lord's light.
6 Fa efa nanary ny taranak’ i Jakoba olonao Hianao, Satria feno ny fanao avy any atsinanana izy Ary efa mpanandro tahaka ny Filistina Sady efa be zana-bahiny.
For you, Lord, have given up on your people the Israelites, because they have adopted pagan practices from the East, they use spells like the Philistines, and make friends with foreigners.
7 Ary ny taniny dia feno volafotsy sy volamena. Sady tsy hita lany ny hareny; Ary ny taniny dia feno soavaly, Sady tsy hita isa ny kalesiny;
Their country is full of silver and gold, and endless wealth. Their land is full of horses; and they have an endless amount of chariots.
8 Ny taniny dia feno andriamani-tsi-izy koa; Eo anatrehan’ ny asan’ ny tanany no iankohofany, Dia izay nataon’ ny rantsan-tanany;
Their country is full of idols; they bow down and worship what they have made themselves—produced by their own hands!
9 Koa ny zanak’ olombelona hatao mitanondrika, Ary ny olona haetry, Ary aza mamela ny helony Hianao!
These people will be brought down and humiliated—Lord, don't forgive them!
10 Midìra ao amin’ ny vatolampy, Ary miere ao amin’ ny vovoka Noho ny tahotra avy amin’ i Jehovah Sy ny voninahitry ny fahalehibiazany.
Run away into rock caves, hide underground from the terrifying presence of the Lord, from the glory of his majesty.
11 Ny fiandranandran’ ny mason’ ny zanak’ olombelona dia haetry, Ary ny fiavonavonan’ ny olona hatao mitanondrika; Fa Jehovah ihany no hisandratra amin’ izany andro izany.
Those who look with arrogance will be brought low; those who are proud will be humbled. On that day only the Lord will be lifted high.
12 Fa misy andron’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Hitsarana izay avo sy ambony toetra rehetra Ary izay misandratra rehetra, Ka dia haetry ireny,
The Lord has set aside a day when he will deal with the proud and arrogant. He will end all self-glorification, bringing it down.
13 Dia ny sedera rehetra any Libanona, izay avo sady andrandraina, Sy ny hazo ôka rehetra any Basana
He will cut down the cedars of Lebanon, tall and high, and all the great oaks of Bashan,
14 Sy ny tendrombohitra avo rehetra Sy ny havoana andrandraina
He will bring down the tall mountains and the high hills.
15 Sy ny tilikambo miringiringy rehetra Sy ny manda mafy rehetra
He will tear down every high tower and every defensive wall.
16 Sy ny sambon’ i Tarsisy rehetra Sy ny tao-zavatra tsara tarehy rehetra;
He will wipe out all the commercial ships of Tarshish as well as the pleasure vessels.
17 Ary ny fireharehan’ ny zanak’ olombelona hatao mitanondrika, Ary ny fiavonavonan’ ny olona haetry; Fa Jehovah ihany no hisandratra amin’ izany andro izany.
The arrogant will be humbled; the proud will be brought low. On that day only the Lord will be lifted high.
18 Ary ny andriamani-tsi-izy dia ho foana avokoa.
Idols will completely vanish away.
19 Ary hiditra ao amin’ ny zohy sy ny lava-bato ny olona Noho ny tahotra avy amin’ i Jehovah sy ny voninahitry ny fahalehibiazany, Rehefa mitsangana hampihorohoro ny tany Izy.
People will run away into rock caves and holes in the ground to try and hide from the terrifying presence of the Lord, from the glory of his majesty, when he arrives to shake the earth.
20 Amin’ izany andro izany dia harian’ ny olona Ho an’ ny voalavo sy ny manavy Ny andriamani-bolafotsiny sy ny andriamani-bolamenany Izay nataony hiankohofany eo anatrehany
On that day the people will take the idols of silver and gold that they made to worship and throw them away to the rats and the bats.
21 Mba hidirany eo amin’ ny fitriatry ny vatolampy sy eo an-tsefatsefaky ny harambato Noho ny tahotra avy amin’ i Jehovah Sy ny voninahitry ny fahalehibiazany, Rehefa mitsangana hampihorohoro ny tany Izy.
They will run to cracks in the rocks and gaps on the cliffs to try and hide from the terrifying presence of the Lord, from the glory of his majesty, when he arrives to shake the earth.
22 Mitsahara, fa aza mitoky amin’ ny olona; Fa fofonaina foana no eo am-bavorony, Ka hatao zinona izy?
Don't bother trusting human beings who only live for a while. How much do they count?
