Isaia 22
1 Faminaniana ny amin’ ny lohasahan’ ny Fahitana. Inona re izato manjo anareo, no dia miakatra eny an-tampon-trano avokoa ianareo,
This is the burden against the Valley of Vision: What ails you now, that you have all gone up to the rooftops,
2 Ry ilay be horakoraka, tanàna be tabataba, vohitra miravoravo? Ny faty eo aminao dia tsy mba novonoin-tsabatra, na maty an’ ady.
O city of commotion, O town of revelry? Your slain did not die by the sword, nor were they killed in battle.
3 Niara-nandositra ny lehibenao, nafatotra tsy amin-tsipìka izy; Izay rehetra hita tao aminao dia niara-nafatotra, na dia nitady handositra lavitra aza.
All your rulers have fled together, captured without a bow. All your fugitives were captured together, having fled to a distant place.
4 Koa izany no anaovako hoe: Mihodìna tsy hijery ahy, fa hitomany mafy dia mafy aho; Aza dia fatra-pampionona ahy noho ny fandringanana ny oloko zanakavavy
Therefore I said, “Turn away from me, let me weep bitterly! Do not try to console me over the destruction of the daughter of my people.”
5 Fa ao amin’ ny lohasahan’ ny fahitana dia misy andron’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, andro fitabatabana sy fanosihosena sy fahaverezan-kevitra, ary fandravana ny manda sy fidradradradrana manako hatrany an-tendrombohitra
For the Lord GOD of Hosts has set a day of tumult and trampling and confusion in the Valley of Vision— of breaking down the walls and crying to the mountains.
6 Ary Elama mitondra ny tranon-jana-tsipìka mbamin’ ny kalesy misy olona sy ny mpitaingin-tsoavaly; Ary Kira manaisotra ny fonon’ ampinga
Elam takes up a quiver, with chariots and horsemen, and Kir uncovers the shield.
7 Izay tsara indrindra amin’ ny lohasahanao dia feno kalesy, ary ny mpitaingin-tsoavaly milahatra eo am-bavahady
Your choicest valleys are full of chariots, and horsemen are posted at the gates.
8 Dia alana ny fisalobonan’ i Joda, ary mijery ny fiadiana ao an-Tranoala ianao amin’ izany andro izany.
He has uncovered the defenses of Judah. On that day you looked to the weapons in the House of the Forest.
9 Ary hilanareo fa banga be ihany ny tanànan’ i Davida; Ary mamory ny rano avy amin’ ny kamory ambany ianareo.
You saw that there were many breaches in the walls of the City of David. You collected water from the lower pool.
10 Isainareo ny trano any Jerosalema, ka dia ravanareo ny trano ho enti-manamafy ny manda.
You counted the houses of Jerusalem and tore them down to strengthen the wall.
11 Mihady lavaka famorian-drano eo anelanelan’ ny manda roa ianareo halenan ny rano avy amin’ ny kamory ela; Kanefa tsy mijery Izay efa nanomana izao zavatra izao ianareo, na mahita Izay nikasa azy hatry ny fony ela.
You built a reservoir between the walls for the waters of the ancient pool, but you did not look to the One who made it, or consider Him who planned it long ago.
12 Ary amin’ izany andro izany Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Hiantso fitomaniana sy fioriana sy fiharatana ary fisikinana lamba fisaonana.
On that day the Lord GOD of Hosts called for weeping and wailing, for shaven heads and the wearing of sackcloth.
13 Kanjo he izato hafaliana sy halavoravoana! Sy famonoana omby sy ondry aman’ osy ary fihinanan-kena sy fisotroan-divay! Aoka isika hihinana sy hisotro, fa rahampitso dia ho faty.
But look, there is joy and gladness, butchering of cattle and slaughtering of sheep, eating of meat and drinking of wine: “Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die!”
14 Dia nambaran’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, teo an-tsofiko izao: Tsy havela mihitsy ambara-pahafatinareo izao helokareo izao, hoy Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro.
The LORD of Hosts has revealed in my hearing: “Until your dying day, this sin of yours will never be atoned for,”
15 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro: Andeha mankao amin’ ilay mpanolo-tsaina io, dia ao amin’ i Sebna, lehiben’ ny ao an-dapa, ka ataovy hoe:
This is what the Lord GOD of Hosts says: “Go, say to Shebna, the steward in charge of the palace:
16 Manao inona etỳ ianao, ary inonao moa no etỳ, No manao fasana etỳ ianao, dia manao fasana ho anao etỳ amin’ ny hantsana sy mandoaka fonenana ho anao etỳ amin’ ny harambato?
What are you doing here, and who authorized you to carve out a tomb for yourself here—to chisel your tomb in the height and cut your resting place in the rock?
17 Indro, Jehovah hanipy mafy anao, eny, hofiazany mafy ianao,
Look, O mighty man! The LORD is about to shake you violently. He will take hold of you,
18 Dia hovolavolainy toy ny kodiarana ka hahodiadiany ho any amin’ ny tany malalaka; Dia any no hahafaty anao, ary ho any koa ny kalesin’ ny voninahitrao ry ilay henatry ny mpianakavin’ ny tomponao.
roll you into a ball, and sling you into a wide land. There you will die, and there your glorious chariots will remain—a disgrace to the house of your master.
19 Ary horoahiko hiala amin’ ny fitoeranao ianao sy haongako hiala amin’ ny raharahanao
I will remove you from office, and you will be ousted from your position.
20 Ary amin’ izany andro izany dia hantsoiko kosa Eliakima mpanompoko, zanak’ i Hilkia;
On that day I will summon My servant, Eliakim son of Hilkiah.
21 Ary hampiakanjoiko azy ny akanjonao, sady hosikinako amin’ ny fehin-kibonao izy; Ka dia hatolotro eo an-tànany ny fanapahanao, ary dia ho tonga rain’ ny mponina eto Jerosalema sy ny taranak’ i Joda izy.
I will clothe him with your robe and tie your sash around him. I will put your authority in his hand, and he will be a father to the dwellers of Jerusalem and to the house of Judah.
22 Ary hapetrako eo an-tsorony ny fanala hidin’ ny tranon’ i Davida; Dia hamoha izy, ka tsy hisy handrindrina; Ary handrindrina izy, ka tsy hisy hamoha.
I will place on his shoulder the key to the house of David. What he opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no one can open.
23 Ary hatsatoko toy ny fihantonan-javatra eo amin’ ny fitoerana mafy izy ka ho sezam-boninahitra ho an’ ny mpianakavin-drainy.
I will drive him like a peg into a firm place, and he will be a throne of glory for the house of his father.
24 Ary hahantona eo aminy ny havesatry ny voninahitry ny mpianakavin-drainy rehetra, izay zanaka sy tera-drainy rehetra, dia ny fanaka madinita rehetra hatramin’ ny lovia ka hatramin’ ny siny samy hafa rehetra.
So they will hang on him the whole burden of his father’s house: the descendants and the offshoots—all the lesser vessels, from bowls to every kind of jar.
25 Amin’ izany andro izany, hoy Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Dia hiala ilay fihantonan-javatra voatsatoka teo amin’ ny fitoerana mafy; Eny, hokapaina izy ka hianjera, dia ho simba ny entana izay nihantona teo aminy; Fa Jehovah no efa niteny.
In that day, declares the LORD of Hosts, the peg driven into a firm place will give way; it will be sheared off and fall, and the load upon it will be cut down.” Indeed, the LORD has spoken.
