Isaia 20

1 Tamin’ ny taona nankanesan’ i Tartana tany Asdoda, raha nirahin’ i Sargona, mpanjakan’ i Asyria, izy ka namely an’ i Asdoda ary nahafaka azy,

‌ʻI he taʻu naʻe haʻu ai ʻa Tatani ki ʻAsitoti, (i he kuonga naʻe fekau ia ʻe Sakone ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia, ) ʻo ne tauʻi ʻa ʻAsitoti, pea lavaʻi ia;

2 tamin’ izany andro izany no nampitondran’ i Jehovah teny an’ Isaia, zanak’ i Amoza, hoe: Andeha, borahy ny lamba fisaonana ho afaka amin’ ny valahanao, ary esory ny kiraronao hiala amin’ ny tongotrao. Dia nanao izany izy ka nandeha tsy nitafy sady tsy nikiraro.

‌ʻI he kuonga pe ko ia naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia ʻIsaia ko e foha ʻo ʻAmosi, ʻo pehē, “ʻAlu ʻo vete ʻae tauangaʻa mei hoʻo noʻotanga vala, pea toʻo ʻae topuvaʻe mei ho vaʻe. Pea naʻa ne fai ia, ʻo ʻeveʻeva taʻehakofu pea taʻetopuvaʻe.

3 Ary hoy Jehovah: Tahaka ny nandehanan’ Isaia mpanompoko telo taona sady tsy nitafy no tsy nikiraro mba ho famantarana sy ho fahagagana ny amin’ i Egypta sy Etiopia,

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova, ʻO hangē kuo ʻeveʻeva telefua pea taʻehatopuvaʻe ʻa ʻeku tamaioʻeiki ko ʻIsaia ʻi he taʻu ʻe tolu ko e fakaʻilonga mo e meʻa fakaofo ki ʻIsipite pea ki ʻItiopea;

4 dia ho toy izany no hitondran’ ny mpanjakan’ i Asyria ny Egyptiana ho babo sy ny Etiopiana ho sambotra, na tanora na antitra, samy tsy hitafy sady tsy hikiraro no tsy hisarom-pe, ho henatr’ i Egypta.

‌ʻE pehē ʻae taki pōpula ʻe he tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia ʻae kakai ʻo ʻIsipite, pea mo e kakai pōpula ʻo ʻItiopea, ʻae talavou mo e mātuʻa, ʻae telefua mo e taʻehatopuvaʻe, ʻio, ʻi he taʻekofu honau kongaloto, ko e fakamā ʻoe kakai ʻIsipite.

5 Ary ho raiki-tahotra sy ho menatra ny Isiraely noho ny amin’ i Etiopia fanantenany sy Egypta reharehany.

Pea te nau manavahē pea mā ki ʻItiopea ko ʻenau ʻamanaki, pea mo ʻIsipite ko honau vikivikiʻanga.

6 Ary amin’ izany andro izany ny mponina etỳ amoron-dranomasina dia hanao hoe: He! ity manjo ilay nantenaintsika sady nandosirantsika ho famonjena antsika ho afaka amin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Asyria! Aiza intsony re no handosirantsika?

Pea ʻe pehē ʻae tangata ʻoe fonua ni ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, ‘Vakai ʻoku pehē ʻemau ʻamanaki, ʻaia naʻa mau hola ki ai ke maʻu ʻae tokoni ke mau hao ai mei he tuʻi ʻo ʻAsilia: pea ʻe fēfē koā ʻemau hao?’”
