Isaia 54
1 Mihobia, ry momba, ianao izay tsy niteraka, eny, velomy ny hoby, ka manandrata feo, ianao izay tsy mba nihetsi-jaza; fa ny zanaky ny mpitondra tena dia maro noho ny zanaky ny manambady, hoy Jehovah.
“Sing, O barren, she [who] has not borne! Break forth with singing, and cry aloud, She [who] has not brought forth! For more [are] the sons of the desolate, Than the sons of the married one,” said YHWH.
2 Halalaho ny itoeran’ ny lainao, ary aoka hohenjanina ny ambain-dainao, ka aza avela hisy hiketrona; halavao ny kofehinao, ary aoreno mafy ny tsima-dainao;
“Enlarge the place of your tent, And they stretch out the curtains of your dwelling places, Do not restrain—lengthen your cords, And make your pins strong.
3 Fa hitatra any amin’ ny ankavanana sy any amin’ ny ankavia ianao, ary ny taranakao hahazo ny jentilisa, ka dia hasiany mponina ny tanàna lao.
For you break forth right and left, And nations possess your seed,
4 Aza matahotra, fa tsy ho menatra ianao; ary aza mangaihay, fa tsy havela ho afa-baraka ianao; fa ho hadinonao ny henatry ny fahatanoranao, ary tsy ho tsaroanao intsony ny tondromasonao fony mpitondratena.
And they cause desolate cities to be inhabited. Do not fear, for you are not ashamed, Nor blush, for you are not confounded, For you forget the shame of your youth, And the reproach of your widowhood You do not remember anymore.
5 Fa ny Mpanao anao no Vadinao, Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, no anarany; Ary ny Iray Masin’ ny Isiraely no Mpanavotra anao, Andriamanitry ny tany rehetra no anarany.
For your Maker [is] your husband, YHWH of Hosts [is] His Name, And your Redeemer [is] the Holy One of Israel, He is called God of all the earth.
6 Fa Jehovah efa nampody anao, izay tahaka ny vady efa nafoy ka ory am-panahy, ary tahaka ny vady efa novadina hatry ny fony mbola tanora, fa efa napetraka, hoy Andriamanitrao.
For as a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit, YHWH has called you, Even a youthful wife when she is refused,” said your God.
7 Indray mipi-maso monja no nahafoizako anao; fa amin’ ny indrafo lehibe kosa no ampodiako anao.
“In a small moment I have forsaken you, And in great mercies I gather you,
8 Tamin’ ny firehetan’ ny fahatezerako no nanafenako ny tavako taminao indray mipi-maso monja, fa amin’ ny famindram-po mandrakizay kosa no amindrako fo aminao, hoy Jehovah, Mpanavotra anao.
In overflowing wrath I hid My face [for] a moment from you, And in perpetual kindness I have loved you, Said your Redeemer—YHWH!
9 Fa amiko izany dia tahaka ilay ranon’ i Noa, ka toy ny nianianako fa tsy hanafotra ny tany intsony ilay ranon’ i Noa. Dia toy izany no ianianako fa tsy ho tezitra aminao na hiteny mafy anao intsony Aho.
For this [is as] the days of Noah to Me, In that I have sworn that the waters of Noah Do not pass over the earth again—So I have sworn, Wrath is not on you, Nor rebuke against you.
10 Fa na dia hifindra aza ny tendrombohitra ary na dia hihetsika aza ny havoana, tsy mba hiala aminao ny famindram-peko, ary tsy hitsoaka ny faneken’ ny fihavanako, hoy Jehovah, Mpamindra fo aminao.
For the mountains depart, and the hills remove, And My kindness does not depart from you, And the covenant of My peace does not remove,” Says YHWH, your loving one.
11 Hianao, ry ory izay afotofoton’ ny tafiodrivotra sady tsy manana fampiononana, indro, Izaho handatsaka ny vatonao amin’ ny antimony sy hanorina ny fanambaninao amin’ ny safira,
“O afflicted, storm-tossed, not comforted, Behold, I am laying your stones with cement, And have founded you with sapphires,
12 Hataoko robina ny tilikambo madinikao, sy karbonkolo ny vavahadinao, ary vato soa ny faritaninao manodidina.
And have made your pinnacles of agate, And your gates of carbuncle stones, And all your border of stones of delight,
13 Ary ny zanakao rehetra dia ho samy efa nampianarin’ i Jehovah, ka dia ho be ny fiadanan’ ny zanakao.
And all your sons are taught of YHWH, And the peace of your sons [is] abundant.
14 Amin’ ny fahamarinana no hampiorenana anao; aza manahy ny fampahoriana, fa tsy hatahotra ianao, na ny fampahatahorana, fa tsy hanakaiky anao izany.
You establish yourself in righteousness, Be far from oppression, for you do not fear, And from ruin, for it does not come near to you.
15 Na dia misy miara-mioko aza, dia tsy avy amiko izany; ary na iza na iza miara-mioko hamely anao dia ho tonga hiandany aminao kosa.
Behold, he diligently assembles without My desire, Whoever has assembled near you falls by you!
16 Indro, Izaho no nahary ny mpanefy izay mifofotra ny afo amin’ ny arina ka mahavita fiasana hanaovany ny asany; Ary Izaho koa no nahary ny mpandringana mba handringana.
Behold, I have created an artisan, Blowing on a fire of coals, And bringing out an instrument for his work, And I have created a destroyer to destroy.
17 Ny fiadiana rehetra izay voaforona hamelezana anao dia tsy hisy hambinina, ary ny lela rehetra izay miady aminao dia horesenao lahatra. Izany no lovan’ ny mpanompon’ i Jehovah sy fahamarinany avy amiko, hoy Jehovah.
No weapon formed against you prospers, And every tongue rising against you, You condemn in judgment. This [is] the inheritance of the servants of YHWH, And their righteousness from Me,” a declaration of YHWH!
