Isaia 27
1 Amin’ izany andro izany ny sabatr’ i Jehovah, izay mafy sady lehibe no mahery, no ho entiny mamaly ny leviatana, dia ilay menarana mandositra, sy ny leviatana, dia ilay menarana miforoporotra, Ary hovonoiny ilay dragona ao an-dranomasina.
In that day will Jehovah punish with his sword, His hard, and great, and strong sword, The leviathan, that fleet serpent, Even the leviathan, that winding serpent; Yea, he will slay the monster, that is in the sea.
2 Amin’ izany andro izany no hihiranareo ny amin’ ny tanim-boaloboka ahazoana divay mahery hoe:
In that day, sing ye thus concerning the vineyard:
3 Izaho Jehovah no mpiaro io; Isaky ny indray mipi-maso no andemako azy, Fandrao misy manimba azy; Na andro na alina dia miaro azy aho.
“I, Jehovah, am its guardian; I will water it every moment; That no one may assault it, I will watch it day and night.
4 Tsy misy fahatezerana ato amiko; Enga anie ka hisy hery sy tsilo eto anatrehako hiadiako. Dia hiroatako ireo ka hodorako avokoa!
There is no fury in me; But let me find the thorns and thistles in battle. I will go against them, And burn them up together,
5 Fa raha tsy izany, dia aoka hifikitra amin’ ny heriko kosa izy ka hihavana amiko; Eny, aoka hihavana amiko izy.
Unless they take hold of my protection, And with me make peace, And make peace with me.”
6 Amin’ ny andro ho avy dia hamaka tsara Jakoba; Ary Isiraely hamony sy hitsimoka ka hameno izao tontolo izao amin’ ny fahavokarany.
In coming days shall Jacob take root, And Israel flourish and bud forth, And fill the world with fruit.
7 Moa tahaka ny namelezana izay namely azy va no moa namelezany azy koa? Ary tahaka ny namonoana izay novonoiny va no mba namonoana azy koa?
Did he smite Israel, as he smote those that smote him? Was he slain as those that slew him?
8 Tamin’ ny nandroahany azy dia voafetra no niadiany taminy; Nokororohiny tamin’ ny rivony mahery izy tamin’ ny andron’ ny rivotra avy any atsinanana.
In measure, by sending her away, didst thou punish her, Taking her away in the rough tempest, in the day of the east wind.
9 Ka izao no hamelana ny helok’ i Jakoba, Ary izao ihany no vokatry ny nanesorana ny fahotany, dia amin’ ny anaovany ny vato rehetra amin’ ny alitara ho tahaka ny vato sokay voatorotoro, ary ny Aseraha sy ny tsangan-kazo ho an’ ny masoandro dia tsy hitsangana intsony.
By this, therefore, is the iniquity of Jacob expiated, And this is wholly the fruit of the removal of his sin, That He has made the stones of the altar like limestones broken in pieces, And that the images of Astarte and the sun-pillars no more stand.
10 Fa ho foana ny tanàna mimanda, ka dia ho fonenana afoy sy ilaozana tahaka ny efitra: Ao no hihinanan’ ny zanak’ omby, ary ao no handriany sy handaniany ny rantsan-kazony.
For the fortified city is desolate, A habitation forsaken, deserted like a wilderness; There doth the calf feed, and there doth he lie down, And consume her branches.
11 Raha malazo ny rantsany, dia hotapatapahina, ka ho avy ny vehivavy hitaina azy, satria firenena tsy manam-pahalalana izy, dia tsy hiantra azy ny Mpanao azy, ary tsy hamindra fo aminy ny Mpamorona azy.
When her boughs are withered, they are broken off; Women come, and burn them; For it was a people of no understanding; Therefore he that made him had not mercy on him, And he that formed him showed him no favor.
12 Ary amin’ izany andro izany dia hisy fampihintsanana ataon’ i Jehovah hatramin’ ny ony mandriaka ka hatramin’ ny lohasahan-driak’ i Egypta; Ary ianareo samy hotsimponina tsirairay, ry Zanak’ Isiraely.
But it shall come to pass in that day, That Jehovah shall gather fruit From the stream of the Euphrates to the river of Egypt, And ye shall be gathered, one by one, ye children of Israel!
13 Ary amin’ izany andro izany koa no hitsofana anjomara lehibe, dia ho avy izay very tany amin’ ny tany Asyria sy izay efa voaroaka tany amin’ ny tany Egypta, ka hiankohoka eo anatrehan’ i Jehovah ao amin’ ny tendrombohitra masìna any Jerosalema.
In that day shall a great trumpet be sounded, And they shall come who are lost in the land of Assyria, And are outcasts in the land of Egypt, And shall worship Jehovah upon the holy mountain in Jerusalem.
