< Isaia 45 >
1 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah amin’ ny voahosony, dia Kyrosy, izay notantanako tamin’ ny tànany ankavanana, mba handreseko firenena eo anoloany sy hamahako ny fehin-kibon’ ny mpanjaka, mba hamohako varavarana eo anoloany, ka tsy hirindrina intsony ny vavahady:
Thus saith the LORD to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have held to subdue nations before him; and I will loose the loins of kings, to open before him the two-leaved gates, and the gates shall not be shut;
2 Handroso eo alohanao Aho ary handravona ny mikitoantoana sy hanorotoro ny varavarana varahina ary hanapatapaka ny hidy vy;
I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut asunder the bars of iron:
3 Dia homeko anao ny rakitra ao amin’ ny maizina sy ny harena nafenina ao amin’ ny mangingina, mba hahafantaranao fa Izaho no Jehovah Izay miantso anao amin’ ny anaranao, dia Andriamanitry ny Isiraely.
And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the LORD, who call [thee] by thy name, [am] the God of Israel.
4 Noho ny amin’ i Jakoba mpanompoko sy Isiraely voafidiko no niantsoako anao tamin’ ny anaranao sy nanomezako anarana malaza ho anao, na dia tsy nahafantatra Ahy aza ianao.
For Jacob my servant's sake, and Israel my elect, I have even called thee by thy name: I have surnamed thee, though thou hast not known me:
5 Izaho no Jehovah, fa tsy misy hafa: Tsy misy Andriamanitra afa-tsy Izaho; Izaho efa nampisikina anao, kanefa tsy nahafantatra Ahy ianao,
I [am] the LORD, and [there is] none else, [there is] no God besides me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me:
6 Mba hahafantarana hatrany amin’ ny fiposahan’ ny masoandro ka hatrany amin’ ny filentehany fa tsy misy afa-tsy Izaho: Izaho no Jehovah, fa tsy misy hafa,
That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that [there is] none besides me. I [am] the LORD, and [there is] none else.
7 Dia Izaho Izay mamorona ny mazava sy mahary ny maizina, manao ny fiadanana sy mahary ny loza; Izaho Jehovah no manao izany rehetra izany.
I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these [things].
8 Manateteva avy any ambony, ry lanitra, ary aoka ny habakabaka hampilatsaka fahamarinana; Aoka ny tany hisosatra, Ary aoka ho vokatra avy amin’ ireo ny famonjena; Ary aoka hitsimoka miaraka amin’ izay ny fahamarinana. Izaho Jehovah no efa nahatonga izany.
Drop down, ye heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness: let the earth open, and let them bring forth salvation, and let righteousness spring up together; I the LORD have created it.
9 Lozan’ izay miady amin’ ny namorona azy! Tavim-bilany isan’ ny tavim-bilany amin’ ny tany ihany ireny! Ny tanimanga va hilaza amin’ ny mpanefy azy hoe: Inona no ataonao? Na ny asanao va hanao hoe: Tsy manan-tanana izy?
Woe to him that contendeth with his Maker! [Let] the potsherd [contend] with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou? or thy work, He hath no hands?
10 Lozan’ izay miteny amin-drainy hoe: Inona no aterakao? Na amin-dreniny hoe: Inona no aloaky ny kibonao?
Woe to him that saith to [his] father, What begettest thou? or to the woman, What hast thou brought forth?
11 Izao no lazan’ i Jehovah ny Iray Masin’ ny Isiraely, dia ny namorona azy: Ny amin’ ny zavatra ho avy no anontanio Ahy; ary ny zanako sy ny asan’ ny tanako dia aoka ho adidiko ihany.
Thus saith the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, Ask me of things to come concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands command ye me.
12 Izaho no nanao ny tany sy nahary ny olona eo amboniny; ny tanako ihany no namelatra ny lanitra sy nandahatra ny eny aminy rehetra.
I have made the earth, and created man upon it: I, [even] my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded.
13 Izaho no nanaitra azy io tamin’ ny fahamarinana, ary ny lalany rehetra dia haravoko avokoa; izy no hanao ny tanànako, ary ny oloko voababo dia halefany, nefa tsy amim-bola amin-karena, hoy Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro.
I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will direct all his ways: he shall build my city, and he shall let go my captives, not for price nor reward, saith the LORD of hosts.
14 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah; Ny vokatry ny fisasaran’ i Egypta sy ny tombom-barotr’ i Etiopia sy ny Sabeana, olona lava tsanganana, hafindra ao aminao, ka ho anao izany; ary hanaraka anao ireo; avy aman-gadra izy ary hiankohoka handady eo anatrehanao, dia hifona aminao hoe: Ato aminao tokoa Andriamanitra; ary tsy misy Andriamanitra afa-tsy Izy ihany.
Thus saith the LORD, The labor of Egypt, and merchandise of Cush and of the Sabeans, men of stature, shall come over to thee, and they shall be thine: they shall come after thee; in chains they shall come over, and they shall fall down to thee, they shall make supplication to thee, [saying], Surely God [is] in thee; and [there is] none else, [there is] no God.
15 Marina tokoa fa Hianao dia Andriamanitra miafina, ry Andriamanitry ny Isiraely sady Mpamonjy ô.
Verily thou [art] a God that hidest thyself, O God of Israel, the Savior.
16 Ho menatra sy hangaihay izy rehetra; eny, handeha aman-kenatra avokoa ny mpamorona sarin-javatra,
They shall be ashamed, and also confounded, all of them: they shall go to confusion together [that are] makers of idols.
17 Fa ny Isiraely kosa ho voavonjin’ i Jehovah Amin’ ny famonjena mandrakizay; tsy ho menatra na hangaihay mandrakizay mandrakizay ianareo.
[But] Israel shall be saved in the LORD with an everlasting salvation: ye shall not be ashamed nor confounded world without end.
18 Fa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Izay nahary ny lanitra (Izy no Andriamanitra) sady namorona ny tany sy nahavita azy (Izy no nandamina azy; tsy ho tany tsy misy endrika tsy akory no namoronany azy, fa nataony honenana): Izaho no Jehovah, ary tsy misy hafa.
For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I [am] the LORD; and [there is] none else.
19 Tsy tao amin’ ny mangingina, dia tao amin’ ny fitoera-maizina amin’ ny tany no nitenenako; Izaho tsy niantso ny taranak’ i Jakoba hitady Ahy foana; Izaho Jehovah no miteny ny marina sy manambara ny mahitsy.
I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the earth: I have not said to the seed of Jacob, Seek ye me in vain: I the LORD speak righteousness, I declare things that are right.
20 Mivoria, ka avia, ary miaraha manatona, ianareo jentilisa sisa afaka. Tsy manam-pahalalana izay mitondra ny hazo nataony sarin-javatra voasokitra ka mivavaka amin’ izay andriamanitra tsy mahavonjy.
Assemble yourselves and come; draw near together, ye [that have] escaped of the nations: they have no knowledge that set up the wood of their graven image, and pray to a god [that] cannot save.
21 Alaharo, ka asehoy mazava; Eny, aoka hiara-misaina izy: Iza no efa nanambara izany hatrizay hatrizay? Iza no efa nilaza izany hatramin’ ny fahiny? Tsy Izaho Jehovah va? Fa tsy misy Andriamanitra afa-tsy Izaho, dia Andriamanitra marina sady Mpamonjy; Eny, tsy misy afa-tsy Izaho.
Tell ye, and bring [them] near; yes, let them take counsel together: who hath declared this from ancient time? [who] hath told it from that time? [have] not I the LORD? and [there is] no God else besides me; a just God and a Savior; [there is] none besides me.
22 Mijere Ahy, dia ho voavonjy ianareo, ry vazan-tany rehetra! Fa Izaho no Andriamanitra, ka tsy misy hafa.
Look to me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I [am] God, and [there is] none else.
23 Ny tenako no nianianako, nisy teny efa naloaky ny vavako tamin’ ny fahamarinana ka tsy hitsoaka: Izaho no handohalehan’ ny lohalika rehetra, sy hianianan’ ny lela rehetra hoe:
I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth [in] righteousness, and shall not return, That to me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.
24 Ao amin’ i Jehovah ihany no misy fahamarinana be sy hery, ka izy ihany no hohatonin’ ny olona, ary ho menatra izay rehetra tezitra aminy.
Surely, shall [one] say, in the LORD have I righteousness and strength: [even] to him shall [men] come; and all that are incensed against him shall be ashamed.
25 Ao amin’ i Jehovah no hanamarinana ny taranak’ Isiraely rehetra sy hananany rehareha.
In the LORD shall all the seed of Israel be justified, and shall glory.
