Isaia 38
1 Ary tamin’ izany andro izany dia narary saiky maty Hezekia; ary Isaia mpaminany zanak’ i Amoza, nankao aminy ka nilaza taminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Hafaro ny ankohonanao, fa ho faty ianao, fa tsy ho velona.
About that time was Hezekiah sicke vnto the death, and the Prophet Isaiah sonne of Amoz came vnto him, and sayd vnto him, Thus sayth the Lord, Put thine house in an order, for thou shalt dye, and not liue.
2 Dia nitodika nankany amin’ ny rindrina Hezekia ka nivavaka tamin’ i Jehovah
Then Hezekiah turned his face to the wall, and prayed to the Lord,
3 hoe: Jehovah ô, enga anie ka hotsarovanao ny nandehanako teo anatrehanao tamin’ ny fahamarinana sy tamin’ ny foko rehetra ary ny nanaovako izay tsara eo imasonao Dia nitomany mafy dia mafy izy.
And saide, I beseeche thee, Lord, remember nowe howe I haue walked before thee in trueth, and with a perfite heart, and haue done that which is good in thy sight: and Hezekiah wept sore.
4 Dia tonga tamin’ Isaia ny tenin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe:
Then came the worde of the Lord to Isaiah, saying,
5 Mandehana, ka lazao amin’ i Hezekia hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitr’ i Davida rainao: Efa nohenoiko ny fitarainanao, ary efa hitako ny ranomasonao; indro, hampiako dimy ambin’ ny folo taona ny andronao,
Goe, and say vnto Hezekiah, Thus saith the Lord God of Dauid thy father, I haue heard thy prayer, and seene thy teares: behold, I will adde vnto thy dayes fifteene yeeres.
6 sady hamonjy anao sy ity tanàna ity amin’ ny tanan’ ny mpanjakan’ i Asyria Aho; ary hiaro ity tanàna ity Aho.
And I will deliuer thee out of the hand of the King of Asshur, and this citie: for I will defende this citie.
7 Ary izao no ho famantarana ho anao avy amin’ i Jehovah, hahalalanao fa Jehovah hanao izay zavatra nolazainy:
And this signe shalt thou haue of ye Lord, that ye Lord will do this thing that he hath spoken,
8 Indro, hampiverina ny aloka hàdiny folo Aho araka ny nampidinan’ ny masoandro azy teo amin’ ny dialin’ i Ahaza. Ka dia niverina hàdiny folo ny masoandro, dia ilay efa nidinany.
Beholde, I will bring againe the shadowe of the degrees (whereby it is gone downe in the diall of Ahaz by the sunne) ten degrees backeward: so the sunne returned by tenne degrees, by the which degrees it was gone downe.
9 Ny teny nosoratan’ i Hezekia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, raha narary izy ka sitrana tamin’ ny aretiny:
The writing of Hezekiah King of Iudah, when he had bene sicke, and was recouered of his sickenesse.
10 Hoy izaho: Amin’ izao andro mbola iadanako izao no tsy maintsy idirako amin’ ny vavahadin’ ny fiainan-tsi-hita; nesorina tamiko ny androko sisa. (Sheol h7585)
I saide in the cutting off of my dayes, I shall goe to the gates of the graue: I am depriued of the residue of my yeeres. (Sheol h7585)
11 Hoy izaho: Tsy mba hahita an’ i Jehovah intsony aho. Eny, tsy mba hahita an’ i Jehovah ao amin’ ny velona intsony aho; Tsy mba hahita olona intsony aho, fa ho isan’ ny mponina any amin’ ny fiainan-tsi-hita.
I said, I shall not see the Lord, euen the Lord in the land of the liuing: I shall see man no more among the inhabitants of the world.
12 Ny fonenako nesorina ka nafindra tsy ho amiko, tahaka ny lain’ ny mpiandry ondry; Ahoroko tahaka ny tenona ny androko, fa efa hotapahiny ho afaka amin’ ny haraka izy; Indray andro monja no anaperanao ny aiko.
Mine habitation is departed, and is remoued from me, like a shepheards tent: I haue cut off like a weauer my life: he will cut me off from the height: from day to night, thou wilt make an ende of me.
13 Nampionona ny foko aho mandra-pahamarain’ ny andro; Tahaka ny fanapatapaky ny liona no anapatapahany ny taolako rehetra; Indray andro monja no anaperanao ny aiko.
I rekoned to the morning: but he brake all my bones, like a lion: from day to night wilt thou make an ende of me.
14 Ka dia mikoraraika tahaka ny sidintsidina sy ny vano aho. Ary mitolokoloko tahaka ny voromailala. Pahina ny masoko noho ny faniriako ho any amin’ ny avo; Jehovah ô, ory loatra aho, aoka hiantoka ahy Hianao.
Like a crane or a swallow, so did I chatter: I did mourne as a doue: mine eies were lift vp on high: O Lord, it hath oppressed me, comfort me.
15 Ahoana no holazaiko? Sady nilaza tamiko Izy no nahatanteraka koa; Handeha mijoretra aho amin’ ny taonako sisa rehetra noho ny fangidian’ ny aiko.
What shall I say? for he hath said it to me, and he hath done it: I shall walke weakely all my yeeres in the bitternesse of my soule.
16 Tompo ô, izany no iveloman’ ny olona, ary amin’ izany tokoa no iainan’ ny fanahiko, ka dia mahasitrana sy mahavelona ahy Hianao.
O Lord, to them that ouerliue them, and to all that are in them, the life of my spirite shalbe knowen, that thou causedst me to sleepe and hast giuen life to me.
17 Indro, tonga fiadanana ilay fahoriana mangidy dia mangidy nanjo ahy, ary ny fitiavanao no namonjenao ny fanahiko tsy hankany amin’ ny lavaka fahalevonana; Fa narianao teo ivohonao ny fahotako rehetra.
Beholde, for felicitie I had bitter griefe, but it was thy pleasure to deliuer my soule from the pit of corruption: for thou hast cast all my sinnes behinde thy backe.
18 Fa ny fiainan-tsi-hita tsy mba mahasaotra Anao, ny fahafatesana tsy mahadera Anao; Fa izay midìna any an-davaka dia tsy mahazo manantena ny fahamarinanao. (Sheol h7585)
For the graue cannot confesse thee: death cannot praise thee: they that goe downe into the pit, cannot hope for thy trueth. (Sheol h7585)
19 Ny velona dia ny velona ihany no hidera Anao, tahaka izao izaho anio izao; Ny ray hampahalala ny zanany ny fahamarinanao.
But the liuing, the liuing, he shall confesse thee, as I doe this day: the father to the children shall declare thy trueth.
20 Jehovah efa vonona hamonjy Ahy, Ka dia hitendry ny lokangako ao an-tranon’ i Jehovah izahay Amin’ ny andro rehetra iainanay.
The Lord was ready to saue me: therefore we will sing my song, all the dayes of our life in the House of the Lord.
21 Ary hoy Isaia: Makà ampempan’ aviavy, ary apetaho amin’ ny vay izany, mba ho sitrana izy.
Then said Isaiah, Take a lumpe of drye figs and lay it vpon the boyle, and he shall recouer.
22 Ary hoy Hezekia: Inona no famantarana fa hiakatra ao an-tranon’ i Jehovah aho?
Also Hezekiah had said, What is ye signe, that I shall goe vp into the House of the Lord?
