< 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 YHWH has risen on 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, the darkness covers the earth, And thick darkness the peoples, And YHWH rises on you, And His glory is seen on you.
3 Ary ny firenena manatona ny fahazavanao, ary ny mpanjaka mankeo amin’ ny famirapiratan’ ny fiposahanao.
And nations have come to your light, And kings to the brightness of your rising.
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 around and see, All of them have been gathered, they have come to you, Your sons come from afar, And your daughters are supported on the side.
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 see, and have become bright, And your heart has been afraid and enlarged, For the multitude of the sea turn to you, The forces of nations 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.
A multitude of camels covers you, Dromedaries of Midian and Ephah, All of them from Sheba come, They carry gold and frankincense, And they proclaim the praises of YHWH.
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 flock of Kedar are gathered to you, The rams of Nebaioth serve you, They ascend My altar for acceptance, And I beautify the house of My beauty.
8 Iza moa ireto manidina tahaka ny rahona ary tahaka ny voromailala ho amin’ ny varavarankeliny?
Who [are] these—they fly as a thick cloud, And as doves to their windows?
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 islands wait for Me, And ships of Tarshish first, To bring your sons from afar, Their silver and their gold with them, To the Name of your God YHWH, And to the Holy One of Israel, Because He has beautified 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,
And sons of a stranger have built your walls, And their kings serve you, For in My wrath I have struck you, And in My good pleasure I have pitied you.
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.
And your gates have continually opened, They are not shut by day and by night, To bring the force of nations to you, Even their kings are led.
12 Fa ho levona izay firenena sy fanjakana tsy hanompo anao; eny, ireny firenena ireny hofongorana tokoa.
For the nation and the kingdom that does not serve you perishes, Indeed, the nations are utterly desolated.
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 comes to you, Fir, pine, and box together, To beautify the place of My sanctuary, And I make the place of My feet honorable.
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.
And the sons of those afflicting you Have come to you, bowing down, And all despising you Have bowed themselves to the soles of your feet, And they have cried to you: The City of YHWH, 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.
Instead of your being forsaken and hated, And none passing through, I have made you for a continuous excellence, A joy of generation and generation.
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.
And you have sucked the milk of nations, Indeed, you suckle the breast of kings, And you have known that I, YHWH, Your Savior, and Your Redeemer, [Am] 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 the bronze I bring in gold, And instead of the iron I bring in silver, And instead of the wood bronze, And instead of the stone iron, And I have made your inspection peace, And your exactors righteousness.
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.
Violence is not heard in your land anymore, Spoiling and destruction in your borders, And you have called 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.
The sun is no longer your light by day, And for brightness the moon does not give light to you, And YHWH has become to you A continuous light, and your God your beauty.
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 goes in no more, And your moon is not removed, For YHWH becomes a continuous light to you. And the days of your mourning have been completed.
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.
And all your people [are] righteous, They possess the earth for all time, A branch of My planting, A work of My hands, to be beautified.
22 Ny kely ho tonga arivo, ary ny malemy ho tonga firenena mahery; Izaho Jehovah no hanafaingana izany amin’ ny fotoany.
The little one becomes a chief, And the small one a mighty nation, I, YHWH, hurry it in its own time!”
