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 bowed downe: Nebo is fallen: their idoles were vpon the beastes, and vpon the cattell: they which did beare you, were laden with a wearie burden.
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 bowed downe, and fallen together: for they coulde not rid them of the burden, and their soule is gone into captiuitie.
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:
Heare ye me, O house of Iaakob, and all that remaine of the house of Israel, which are borne of me from the wombe, and brought vp of me from the birth.
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.
Therefore vnto olde age, I the same, euen I will beare you vntill the hoare heares: I haue made you: I will also beare you, and I will cary you and I will deliuer you.
5 Hampitovinareo amin’ iza moa Aho, sy amin’ iza no hanoharanareo Ahy ary iza no hataonareo ho tahaka Ahy mba hitahany amiko?
To whom will ye make me like or make me equall, or copare me, that I should be like him?
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.
They draw gold out of the bagge and weigh siluer in the balance, and hire a goldsmith to make a god of it, and they bowe downe, and worship it.
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 beare it vpon the shoulders: they carie him and set him in his place: so doeth he stand, and cannot remoue from his place. Though one crie vnto him, yet can he not answere, nor deliuer him out of his tribulation.
8 Tsarovy izany ka mahereza ianareo eritrereto tsara izany, ry mpiodina.
Remember this, and be ashamed: bring it againe to minde, O you transgressers.
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 things of old: for I am God, and there is none other God, and there is nothing like 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,
Which declare the last thing from the beginning: and from of olde, the things that were not done, saying, My counsell shall stand, and I will doe whatsoeuer I will.
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.
I call a birde from the East, and the man of my counsell from farre: as I haue spoken, so will I bring it to passe: I haue purposed it, and I will doe it.
12 Mihainoa Ahy ianareo madi-po izay lavitra ny fahamarinana:
Heare me, ye stubburne hearted, that are farre from iustice.
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 bring neere my iustice: it shall not be farre off, and my saluation shall not tarie: for I wil giue saluation in Zion, and my glory vnto Israel.
