Isaia 46
1 Mangozohozo Bela, efa miraika Nebo, ny sampiny dia nampitondraina ny biby folahina sy ny biby fiompy; Ny zavatra fitondranareo dia asampy ka tonga enta-mavesatra entin’ ireo biby reraka.
Bel is broken, Nebo is destroyed: their idols are put upon beasts and cattle, your burdens of heavy weight even unto weariness.
2 Miraika sy mangozohozo avokoa izy, ka tsy mahavonjy ny entana akory; Fa na dia ny tenany aza dia lasan-ko babo koa.
They are consumed, and are broken together: they could not save him that carried them, and they themselves shall go into captivity.
3 Mihainoa Ahy, ry taranak’ i Jakoba sy izay sisa rehetra amin’ ny taranak’ Isiraely, izay nobabena hatrany an-kibo sy nentina hatrany am-bohoka:
Hearken unto me, O house of Jacob, all the remnant of the house of Israel, who are carried by my bowels, are borne up by my womb.
4 Na dia mandra-pahantitrareo aza, dia tsy miova Aho, ary mandra-pahafotsy volonareo, dia Izaho ihany no hisahirana mitondra anareo. Izaho no nanao, ka Izaho ihany no hitrotro, eny, izaho no hitondra sy hanafaka.
Even to your old age I am the same, and to your grey hairs I will carry you: I have made you, and I will bear: I will carry and will save.
5 Hampitovinareo amin’ iza moa Aho, sy amin’ iza no hanoharanareo Ahy ary iza no hataonareo ho tahaka Ahy mba hitahany amiko?
To whom have you likened me, and made me equal, and compared me, and made me like?
6 Izay mandraraka volamena avy ao an-kitapo sy mandania volafotsy amin’ ny mizana dia manakarama mpanefy volamena mba hanao izany ho andriamanitra, hiankohofany sy hivavahany.
You that contribute gold out of the bag, and weigh out silver in the scales: and hire a goldsmith to make a god: and they fall down and worship.
7 Dia betainy ho eny an-tsorony iny ka entiny ary apetrany eo amin’ ny fitoerany iny, ka dia mitoetra eo; Tsy mahay miala eo amin’ ny fitoerany iny; ary na dia misy mitaraina aminy aza, dia tsy mahay mamaly izy, na mahavonjy azy amin’ ny fahoriany.
They bear him on their shoulders and carry him, and set him in his piece, and he shall stand, and shall not stir out of his place. Yea, when they shall cry also unto him, he shall not hear: he shall not save them from tribulation.
8 Tsarovy izany ka mahereza ianareo eritrereto tsara izany, ry mpiodina.
Remember this, and be ashamed: return, ye transgressors, to the heart.
9 Tsarovy ny zavatra taloha izay efa lasa ela; Fa Izaho no Andriamanitra, ka tsy misy hafa; Izaho no Andriamanitra, ka tsy misy tahaka Ahy,
Remember the former age, for I am God, and there is no God beside, neither is there the like to me:
10 Izay manambara ny farany hatramin’ ny voalohany, ary nanambara hatramin’ ny ela izay tsy mbola natao akory, dia ilay manao hoe: Ho tò ny fikasako, ary hefaiko ny sitrapoko rehetra,
Who shew from the beginning the things that shall be at last, and from ancient times the things that as yet are not done, saying: My counsel shall stand, and all my will shall be done:
11 Izay miantso vorona mpihaza avy any atsinanana, dia lehilahy avy any an-tany lavitra hahefa ny fikasako; sady efa niteny izany Aho no hahatanteraka azy koa, sady nikasa Aho no hahefa azy.
Who call a bird from the east, and from a far country the man of my own will, and I have spoken, and will bring it to pass: I have created, and I will do it.
12 Mihainoa Ahy ianareo madi-po izay lavitra ny fahamarinana:
Hear me, O ye hardhearted, who are far from justice.
13 Hampanatoniko ny fahamarinako, ka tsy ho lavitra intsony; ary ny famonjeko tsy hitaredretra; fa hametraka famonjena ao Ziona Aho sy ny voninahitro ho an’ ny Isiraely.
I have brought my justice near, it shall not be afar off: and my salvation shall not tarry. I will give salvation in Sion, and my glory in Israel.
