Isaia 32
1 Indro, fa araka ny fahamarinana no hanjakan’ ny mpanjaka, ary ny lehibe hanaraka araka ny rariny.
Look, a king will reign in righteousness, and princes will rule in justice.
2 Ary hisy lehilahy ho fierena amin’ ny rivotra sy ho fialofana amin’ ny ranonoram-baratra; Ho ranovelona ao amin’ ny tany karankaina izy, ho alo-batolampy lehibe amin’ ny tany mahana.
Each one will be like a shelter from the wind and a refuge from the storm, like streams of water in a dry place, like the shade of a great rock in a land of weariness.
3 Ary tsy hikimpy ny mason’ izay mahita, ary ny sofin’ izay mandre dia hihaino.
Then the eyes of those who see will not be dim, and the ears of those who hear will hear attentively.
4 Ny fon’ izay maimaika hahazo fahalalana, ary ny lelan’ izay mikodedidedy hahay miteny mahitsy.
The rash will think carefully with understanding, and the stutterer will speak distinctly and with ease.
5 Ny adala tsy holazaina intsony hoe mitoetr’ andriana, ary ny mpifetsy tsy holazaina hoe mahafoy be.
The fool will no longer be called honorable, nor the deceiver called principled.
6 Fa ny adala mbola miteny fahadalana ihany, ary ny fony mamoron-keloka, mba hanaovany fihatsaram-belatsihy sy hitenenany hevi-diso ny amin’ i Jehovah ary hanaovany izay tsy hahazoan’ ny noana hanina sy izay tsy hahazoan’ ny mangetaheta rano hosotroina.
For the fool speaks folly, and his heart plans evil and godless actions, and he speaks wrongly against Yahweh. He makes the hungry empty, and the thirsty he causes to lack drink.
7 Ary ratsy ny hafetsen’ ny mpifetsy; Mamoron-tsain-dratsy izy hanimbany ny ory amin’ ny teny lainga, na dia miteny manan-drariny aza ny malahelo;
The deceiver's methods are evil. He devises wicked schemes to ruin the poor with lies, even when the poor say what is right.
8 Fa ny mitoetr’ andriana kosa dia mamoron-tsaina araka izay mahamendrika andriana, ary izay mahamendrika andriana no ifikirany.
But the honorable man makes honorable plans; and because of his honorable actions he will stand.
9 Mitsangàna, ry vehivavy miadana, ka mandrenesa ny feoko; Ry zazavavy matokitoky foana, mihainoa ny teniko.
Rise up, you women who are at ease, and listen to my voice; you carefree daughters, listen to me.
10 Raha afaka herintaona mahery dia ho raiki-tahotra ianareo, ry vehivavy matokitoky foana; Fa hanjahitra ny taom-piotazam-boaloboka, ary tsy hisy ny fanangonam-boankazo
For in a little more than a year your confidence will be broken, you carefree women, for the grape harvest will fail, the ingathering will not come.
11 Mangovita, ry vehivavy miadana, mangorohoroa, ry vehivavy matokitoky foana; Endaho ny akanjonao, ka mitanjaha, ary misikìna lamba fisaonana.
Tremble, you women who are at ease; be troubled, you confident ones; take off your fine clothes and make yourselves bare; put on sackcloth around your waists.
12 Miteha-tratra izy, fa malahelo ny saha nahafinaritra sy ny voaloboka vokatra.
You will wail for the pleasant fields, for the fruitful vines.
13 Ho rakotry ny tsilo sy ny hery ny tanin’ ny oloko, eny, na dia ny ao amin’ ny trano mahafaly rehetra ao an-tanàna ravoravo aza;
The land of my people will be overgrown with thorns and briers, even in all the once joyful houses in the city of revelry.
14 Fa ho foana ny lapan’ ny mpanjaka; Hitsahatra ny fihorikoriky ny tanàna; Ofela sy ny tilikambo fitazanana ho tonga naman’ ny zohy ho mandrakizay, dia fikarenjen’ ny boriki-dia sy fiandrasana ny andian’ ny ondry aman’ osy,
For the palace will be forsaken, the crowded city will be deserted; the hill and the watchtower will become caves forever, a joy of wild donkeys, a pasture of flocks;
15 Mandra-pandatsaka ny fanahy avy amin’ ny avo ho amintsika, ka ny efitra ho tonga saha mahavokatra, ary ny saha mahavokatra hoheverina ho ala.
until the Spirit is poured on us from on high, and the wilderness becomes a fruitful field, and the fruitful field is considered as a forest.
16 Ary hitoetra any an-efitra ny rariny, Ary ny fahamarinana honina ao amin’ ny saha mahavokatra.
Then justice will reside in the wilderness; and righteousness will live in the fruitful field.
17 Ny asan’ ny fahamarinana ho fiadanana; Ary ny vokatry ny fahamarinana dia ho fiadanana sy fahatokiana mandrakizay;
The work of righteousness will be peace; and the result of righteousness, quietness and confidence forever.
18 Ary ny oloko hitoetra ao amin’ ny fonenana mandry fahizay sy ao amin’ ny fitoerana mahatoky ary ao amin’ ny fialan-tsasatra feno fiadanam-po;
My people will live in a peaceful habitation, in secure homes, and in quiet resting places.
19 Nefa hilatsaka ny havandra, rehefa aripaka ny ala, ary halamaka dia halamaka ny tanàna.
But even if it hails and the forest is destroyed, and the city is completely annihilated,
20 Sambatra izay mamafy eny amoron’ ny rano rehetra sady mampiriaria ny omby sy ny boriky.
you who sow beside all the streams will be blessed, you who send out your ox and donkey to graze.
