< Isaia 60 >
1 Mitsangàna, mihazavà, fa tonga ny fahazavanao, ary ny voninahitr’ i Jehovah efa miposaka aminao.
Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the LORD rises upon you.
2 Fa, indro, ny aizina manarona ny tany, ary ny aizim-pito manarona ny firenena; fa aminao kosa no iposahan’ i Jehovah, ary aminao no isehoan’ ny voninahiny.
For behold, darkness covers the earth, and thick darkness is over the peoples; but the LORD will rise upon you, and His glory will appear over you.
3 Ary ny firenena manatona ny fahazavanao, ary ny mpanjaka mankeo amin’ ny famirapiratan’ ny fiposahanao.
Nations will come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your dawn.
4 Atopazy manodidina ny masonao ka jereo! Izy rehetra dia mivory ka mankaty aminao; Ny zanakao-lahy dia avy lavitra, ny zanakao-vavy dia sakelehina.
Lift up your eyes and look around: They all gather and come to you; your sons will come from afar, and your daughters will be carried on the arm.
5 Ary hahita izany ianao ka ho miramirana, dia hiemponempona sady hohalehibiazina ny fonao; fa ho entina ho anao ny haren’ ny ranomasina, ary hafindra ho anao ny fananan’ ny firenena.
Then you will look and be radiant, and your heart will tremble and swell with joy, because the riches of the sea will be brought to you, and the wealth of the nations will come to you.
6 Ho feno ny rameva betsaka ao aminao, dia ny rameva tanora avy any Midiana sy Efaha, samy avy any Sheba izy rehetra; volamena sy ditin-kazo mani-pofona no ho entiny, ary ny fiderana an’ i Jehovah no teny mahafaly hambarany.
Caravans of camels will cover your land, young camels of Midian and Ephah, and all from Sheba will come, bearing gold and frankincense and proclaiming the praises of the LORD.
7 Ny ondry aman’ osy rehetra any kedara dia hangonina ho ao aminao, ary ny ondrilahin’ i Nebaiota hanompo anao; hiakatra amin’ ny fankasitrahana ho eo ambonin’ ny alitarako ireo, ary hataoko be voninahitra ny tranon’ ny voninahitro.
All the flocks of Kedar will be gathered to you; the rams of Nebaioth will serve you and go up on My altar with acceptance; I will adorn My glorious house.
8 Iza moa ireto manidina tahaka ny rahona ary tahaka ny voromailala ho amin’ ny varavarankeliny?
Who are these who fly like clouds, like doves to their shelters?
9 Fa Izaho no andrasan’ ny nosy, ary ny sambon’ i Tarsisy ho loha-lalana, Hitondra ny zanakao avy lavitra mbamin’ ny volafotsiny sy ny volamenany, ho an’ ny anaran’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao sy ho an’ ny Iray Masin’ ny Isiraely, Satria efa nanome voninahitra anao Izy.
Surely the islands will wait for Me, with the ships of Tarshish in the lead, to bring your children from afar, with their silver and gold, to the honor of the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel, for He has glorified you.
10 Ary ny hafa firenena no hanangana ny mandanao, ary ny mpanjakany hanompo anao; fa tamin’ ny fahatezerako no namelezako anao. Ary amin’ ny fitiavako kosa no amindrako fo aminao,
Foreigners will rebuild your walls, and their kings will serve you. Although I struck you in anger, yet in favor I will show you mercy.
11 Ary hidanadana mandrakariva ny vavahadinao, tsy hirindrina izy na andro na alina, hampidirana ny haren’ ny firenena sy ny mpanjakany izay efa voababo ho ao aminao.
Your gates will always stand open; they will never be shut, day or night, so that the wealth of the nations may be brought into you, with their kings being led in procession.
12 Fa ho levona izay firenena sy fanjakana tsy hanompo anao; eny, ireny firenena ireny hofongorana tokoa.
For the nation or kingdom that will not serve you will perish; it will be utterly destroyed.
13 Ny voninahitr’ i Libanona ho tonga aminao, ny hazo kypreso sy ny pina ary ny bokso koa handravahana ny fitoerako masìna, ary hasiako voninahitra ny fitoeran-tongotro.
The glory of Lebanon will come to you— its cypress, elm, and boxwood together— to adorn the place of My sanctuary, and I will glorify the place of My feet.
14 Ny zanak’ izay nampahory anao dia handeha hiondrika eo anatrehanao, ary hiankohoka amin’ ny faladianao izay rehetra nanamavo anao; ary izy hanao anao hoe Tanànan’ i Jehovah, Zionan’ ny Iray Masin’ ny Isiraely.
The sons of your oppressors will come and bow down to you; all who reviled you will fall facedown at your feet and call you the City of the LORD, Zion of the Holy One of Israel.
15 Ho solon’ ny nahafoizana anao sy ny nankahalana anao ary ny tsy nandehanan’ olona namaky anao, dia hasandratro ho rehareha mandrakizay ianao, eny, ho fifaliana hatramin’ ny taranaka fara mandimby.
Whereas you have been forsaken and despised, with no one passing through, I will make you an everlasting pride, a joy from age to age.
16 Ary hinono amin’ ny jentilisa ianao sady hinono amin’ ny mpanjaka; ka dia ho fantatrao fa Izaho Jehovah no Mpamonjy anao, ary Ilay Maherin’ i Jakoba no Mpanavotra anao.
You will drink the milk of nations and nurse at the breasts of royalty; you will know that I, the LORD, am your Savior and your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.
17 Hahatonga volamena Aho ho solom-barahina, ary hahatonga volafotsy ho solom-by, ary varahina ho solon-kazo, ary vy ho solom-bato; ny fiadanana no hataoko fanapahana anao, ary ny fahamarinana no ho mpampiasa anao.
Instead of bronze I will bring you gold; I will bring silver in place of iron, bronze instead of wood, and iron instead of stones. I will appoint peace as your governor and righteousness as your ruler.
18 Ny fampahoriana tsy ho re eo amin’ ny taninao intsony, na ny fandravana sy ny fandringanana ao anatin’ ny fari-taninao; ny mandanao dia hataonao hoe Famonjena, ary ny vavahadinao hataonao hoe Fiderana.
No longer will violence be heard in your land, nor ruin or destruction within your borders. But you will name your walls Salvation and your gates Praise.
19 Tsy ny masoandro intsony no ho fanazavana anao nony andro; ary tsy ny fangarangaran’ ny volana no hanazava anao; fa Jehovah no ho fanazavana anao mandrakizay, ary Andriamanitrao no ho voninahitrao.
No longer will the sun be your light by day, nor the brightness of the moon shine on your night; for the LORD will be your everlasting light, and your God will be your splendor.
20 Tsy hilentika intsony ny masoandronao, ary ny volanao tsy hisoka; fa Jehovah no ho fanazavana anao mandrakizay, ary ho tapitra ny andro fahalahelovanao.
Your sun will no longer set, and your moon will not wane; for the LORD will be your everlasting light, and the days of your sorrow will cease.
21 Ary ny olonao rehetra ho marina avokoa; hanana ny tany ho mandrakizay izy, eny, ho voly maitso eo amin’ ny sahako. Asan’ ny tanako ho fampisehoam-boninahitra.
Then all your people will be righteous; they will possess the land forever; they are the branch of My planting, the work of My hands, so that I may be glorified.
22 Ny kely ho tonga arivo, ary ny malemy ho tonga firenena mahery; Izaho Jehovah no hanafaingana izany amin’ ny fotoany.
The least of you will become a thousand, and the smallest a mighty nation. I am the LORD; in its time I will accomplish it quickly.
