Isaia 40
1 Ampionony, ampionony ny oloko, Hoy Andriamanitrareo;
My puple, be ye coumfortid, be ye coumfortid, seith youre Lord God.
2 Mitoria teny soa mahafaly amin’ i Jerosalema, ka lazao aminy fa vita ny adiny, sady voavela ny helony, ary efa nandray indroa heny tamin’ ny tànan’ i Jehovah izy ho valin’ ny fahotana rehetra nataony.
Speke ye to the herte of Jerusalem, and clepe ye it, for the malice therof is fillid, the wickidnesse therof is foryouun; it hath resseyued of the hond of the Lord double thingis for alle hise synnes.
3 Injany! misy feon’ ny miantso hoe: Manamboara lalana any an-efitra ho an’ i Jehovah, manaova lalambe any an-tany foana ho an’ Andriamanitsika.
The vois of a crier in desert, Make ye redi the weie of the Lord, make ye riytful the pathis of oure God in wildirnesse.
4 Aoka hasandratra ny lohasaha rehetra, Aoka haetry ny tendrombohitra sy ny havoana rehetra; Aoka ny be havoana ho tonga lembalemba, ary ny tany saro-dalana ho tonga lemaka;
Ech valey schal be enhaunsid, and ech mounteyn and litil hil schal be maad low; and schrewid thingis schulen be in to streiyt thingis, and scharpe thingis schulen be in to pleyn weies.
5 Dia hiseho ny voninahitr’ i Jehovah, ary ny nofo rehetra hiara-mahita izany; Fa ny vavan’ i Jehovah no efa niteny.
And the glorie of the Lord schal be schewid, and ech man schal se togidere, that the mouth of the Lord hath spoke.
6 Injany! misy miteny hoe: Miantsoa. Ary hoy izy: Ahoana anefa no antso hataoko? Ahitra ny nofo rehetra, ary ny hatsaran-tarehiny rehetra dia tahaka ny vonin-javatra any an-tsaha;
The vois of God, seiynge, Crie thou. And Y seide, What schal Y crie? Ech fleisch is hei, and al the glorie therof is as the flour of the feeld.
7 Maina ny ahitra, malazo ny voniny, satria tsofin’ ny fofonain’ i Jehovah ireny; Eny, ahitra tokoa ny olona.
The hei is dried vp, and the flour felle doun, for the spirit of the Lord bleew therynne.
8 Maina ny ahitra, malazo ny voniny; Fa ny tenin’ Andriamanitsika dia haharitra mandrakizay.
Verely the puple is hey; the hey is dried vp, and the flour felle doun; but the word of the Lord dwellith with outen ende.
9 Ry Ziona, izay mitondra teny soa mahafaly ô, miakara any an-tendrombohitra avo; Ry Jerosalema izay mitondra teny soa mahafaly ô, Asandrato mafy ny feonao, asandrato, fa aza matahotra; Lazao amin’ ny tanànan’ ny Joda hoe. Indro Andriamanitrareo!
Thou that prechist to Sion, stie on an hiy hil; thou that prechist to Jerusalem, enhaunse thi vois in strengthe; enhaunse thou, nyle thou drede; seie thou to the citees of Juda, Lo! youre God.
10 Indro, Jehovah Tompo ho avy amin’ ny heriny, ka ny sandriny ihany no hanapaka; indro, ny valim-pitia hatolony dia eny aminy, ary ny valin’ asa homeny dia eo anoloany.
Lo! the Lord God schal come in strengthe, and his arm schal holde lordschipe; lo! his mede is with hym, and his werk is bifore hym.
11 Hiandry ny ondriny tahaka ny mpiandry ondry Izy; Ny sandriny no hanangonany ny zanak’ ondry, ka hotrotroiny eo an-tratrany ireny, ary horoahiny miadana ny ampianahany.
As a scheepherd he schal fede his flok, he schal gadere lambreen in his arm, and he schal reise in his bosom; he schal bere scheep `with lomb.
12 Iza no namatra ny rano teo am-pelatanany, ary nanjehy ny lanitra tamin’ ny zehiny, sy namory ny vovo-tany tamin’ ny vata, ary nandanja ny tendrombohitra tamin’ ny fandanjana sy ny havoana tamin’ ny mizana?
Who mat watris in a fist, and peiside heuenes with a spanne? Who peiside the heuynesse of the erthe with thre fyngris, and weide mounteyns in a weihe, and litle hillis in a balaunce?
13 Iza no nanome hevitra ny Fanahin’ i Jehovah, ary iza no mpanolo-tsaina nampianatra Azy?
Who helpide the Spirit of the Lord, ether who was his councelour, and schewide to hym?
14 Iza no nidinihany ka nanome saina Azy sy nanoro Azy ny lalan’ ny fitsarana ary nampianatra fahalalana Azy sy nampahafantatra Azy ny lalan’ ny fahendrena?
With whom took he councel, and who lernyde hym, and tauyte hym the path of riytfulnesse, and lernyde hym in kunnyng, and schewyde to him the weie of prudence?
15 Indro, ny firenena dia tahaka ny rano indray mitete avy amin’ ny siny ary atao ho tahaka ny vovoka madinika amin’ ny mizana; Indro, ny nosy dia tsintsininy tahaka ny zavatra bitika indrindra.
Lo! folkis ben as a drope of a boket, and ben arettid as the tunge of a balaunce; lo!
16 Ary Libanona aza tsy ampy hataina, ary ny biby ao tsy ampy ho fanatitra dorana.
ylis ben as a litil dust, and the Liban schal not suffice to brenne his sacrifice, and the beestis therof schulen not suffice to brent sacrifice.
17 Ny firenena rehetra dia tahaka ny tsinontsinona eo anatrehany, ka ataony ho naman’ ny tsinontsinona sy ny zava-poana izy.
Alle folkis ben so bifore hym, as if thei ben not; and thei ben rettid as no thing and veyn thing to hym.
18 Koa ampitovinareo amin’ iza moa Andriamanitra? Ary endrik’ inona no ampanahafinareo Azy?
To whom therfor maden ye God lijk? ether what ymage schulen ye sette to hym?
19 Ny mpiasa manao sarin-javatra an-idina, ary ny mpanefy volamena mametaka takela-bolamena aminy sy manao tongalika volafotsy an-idina.
Whether a smyth schal welle togidere an ymage, ether a gold smyth schal figure it in gold, and a worchere in siluer schal diyte it with platis of siluer?
20 Izay malahelo ka tsy manan-katerina dia mifidy hazo tsy mety ho lò ary mitady mpiasa mahay zavatra mba hamorona sarin-javatra voasokitra izay tsy hihezongozona.
A wijs crafti man chees a strong tre, and vnable to be rotun; he sekith how he schal ordeyne a symylacre, that schal not be mouyd.
21 Tsy fantatrareo va? Tsy efa renareo va? Tsy efa nambara taminareo fony taloha va? Tsy efa azonareo an-tsaina va ny amin’ ny fanorenan’ ny tany?
Whether ye witen not? whether ye herden not? whether it was not teld to you fro the begynnynge? whether ye vndurstoden not the foundementis of erthe?
22 Izy no mipetraka amin’ ny habakabaka ambonin’ ny tany, ary ny mponina etỳ dia tahaka ny valala; Izy no mamelatra ny lanitra tahaka ny lamba manify kararavina ary manenjana azy tahaka ny lay hitoerana;
Which sittith on the cumpas of erthe, and the dwelleris therof ben as locustis; which stretchith forth heuenes as nouyt, and spredith abrood tho as a tabernacle to dwelle.
23 Izy no mahatsinontsinona ny mpanapaka sy mahatonga ny mpitsara amin’ ny tany ho tahaka ny zava-poana.
Which yyueth the sercheris of priuytees, as if thei be not, and made the iugis of erthe as a veyn thing.
24 Vao nambolena vetivety ireo, vao nafafy ireo, vao namaka tao amin’ ny tany ny fotony, dia notsofin’ Andriamanitra ireo, ka dia nalazo, ary nindaosin’ ny tafio-drivotra tahaka ny vodivary izy.
And sotheli whanne the stok of hem is nether plauntid, nether is sowun, nether is rootid in erthe, he bleew sudenli on hem, and thei drieden vp, and a whirle wynd schal take hem awei as stobil.
25 Koa ampitovinareo amin’ iza moa Aho, hitahako aminy? Hoy ny Iray Masìna.
And to what thing `ye han licned me, and han maad euene? seith the hooli.
26 Asandrato ny masonareo, ka mijere; Iza no nahary ireny? Izy no mamoaka ny antokony araka ny isany sy miantso azy rehetra amin’ ny anarany avy noho ny haben’ ny fahatanjahany sy ny heriny tsy toha, ka tsy misy diso ireny na dia iray akory aza.
Reise youre iyen an hiy, and se ye, who made these thingis of nouyt; which ledith out in noumbre the kniythod of tho, and clepith alle bi name, for the multitude of his strengthe, and stalworthnesse, and vertu; nether o residue thing was.
27 Nahoana no miteny ianao, ry Jakoba ô, ary milaza ianao, ry Isiraely ô, hoe: Miafina tsy hitan’ i Jehovah ny lalako, ary mihelina tsy hitan’ Andriamanitro ny rariny tokony ho ahy?
Whi seist thou, Jacob, and spekist thou, Israel, My weie is hid fro the Lord, and my doom passide fro my God?
28 Tsy fantatrao va? Tsy efa renao va fa Andriamanitra mandrakizay Jehovah, izay namorona ny faran’ ny tany? Tsy mba mety ho reraka na sasatra Izy; Tsy takatry ny saina ny fahalalany.
Whether thou knowist not, ether herdist thou not? God, euerlastynge Lord, that made of nouyt the endis of erthe, schal not faile, nether schal trauele, nether enserchyng of his wisdom is.
29 Mampahatanjaka ny reraka Izy, ary izay kely hery dia omeny hery be.
That yyueth vertu to the weeri, and strengthe to hem that ben not, and multiplieth stalworthnesse.
30 Na dia ny tanora fanahy aza dia ho reraka sy ho sasatra, ary na dia ny zatovo aza dia mety ho tafintohina mafy;
Children schulen faile, and schulen trauele, and yonge men schulen falle doun in her sikenesse.
31 Fa izay miandry an’ i Jehovah dia mandroso hery kosa; Elatra no hiakarany tahaka ny voromahery; Hihazakazaka izy, nefa tsy ho sasatra; Handeha izy, nefa tsy ho reraka.
But thei that hopen in the Lord, schulen chaunge strengthe, thei schulen take fetheris as eglis; thei schulen renne, and schulen not trauele; thei schulen go, and schulen not faile.
