< Isaia 63 >

1 Iza moa Ity avy any Edoma, dia avy any Bozra, ka mena mangatrakatraka ny fitafiany, dia Ity Izay mareva-pitafiana sy miandranandrana amin’ ny haben ny heriny? Izaho Izay mitory fahamarinana sady manan-kery hamonjy.
Who [is] this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? this [that is] glorious in his apparel, travelling in the greatness of his strength? I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save.
2 Nahoana no mena ny fitafianao, ary ny akanjonao no tahaka ny an’ izay manosihosy ny famiazam-boaloboka?
Wherefore [art thou] red in thine apparel, and thy garments like him that treadeth in the winefat?
3 Nanosihosy ny famiazam-boaloboka irery Aho; fa tsy mba nisy niaraka tamiko ny avy tamin’ ny firenena na dia iray akory aza; nanitsaka ireny tamin’ ny fahatezerako Aho sy nanosihosy azy tamin’ ny fahavinirako, dia nipitipitihan’ ny ràny ny fitafiako, ka voalotoko ny akanjoko rehetra.
I have trodden the winepress alone; and of the people [there was] none with me: for I will tread them in mine anger, and trample them in my fury; and their blood shall be sprinkled upon my garments, and I will stain all my raiment.
4 Fa efa ato am-poko ny andro hamaliako, ary tonga ny taonan’ ny voavotro.
For the day of vengeance [is] in mine heart, and the year of my redeemed is come.
5 Nitsinjo Aho, nefa tsy nisy hamonjy, ary talaniona Aho, satria tsy nisy hanohana, ka dia ny sandriko ihany no nanao famonjena ho Ahy, ary ny fahavinirako no nanohana Ahy.
And I looked, and [there was] none to help; and I wondered that [there was] none to uphold: therefore mine own arm brought salvation unto me; and my fury, it upheld me.
6 Nanitsaka firenena tamin’ ny fahatezerako Aho sady nampahaleony azy tamin’ ny fahavinirako ary nandatsaka ny ràny tamin’ ny tany.
And I will tread down the people in mine anger, and make them drunk in my fury, and I will bring down their strength to the earth.
7 Ny famindram-pon’ i Jehovah no hambarako, dia ny fiderana an’ i Jehovah araka izay rehetra nataony tamintsika sy ny haben’ ny fahasoavana tamin’ ny taranak’ Isiraely. Izay nomeny azy araka ny fiantrany sy araka ny haben’ ny famindram-pony.
I will mention the lovingkindnesses of the LORD, [and] the praises of the LORD, according to all that the LORD hath bestowed on us, and the great goodness toward the house of Israel, which he hath bestowed on them according to his mercies, and according to the multitude of his lovingkindnesses.
8 Fa hoy Izy: Oloko tokoa ireo, dia zanaka tsy mba handainga; ka dia tonga Mpamonjy azy Izy.
For he said, Surely they [are] my people, children [that] will not lie: so he was their Saviour.
9 Tamin’ ny fahoriany rehetra dia niory koa Izy, ary Ilay Anjelin’ ny tavany no namonjy ireo; ny fitiavany sy ny famindram-pony no nanavotany azy sy nivimbinany azy ary nitondrany azy tamin’ ny andro taloha ela rehetra.
In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel of his presence saved them: in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; and he bare them, and carried them all the days of old.
10 Fa ireo kosa dia niodina ka nanome alahelo ny Fanahy Masiny; dia tonga fahavalony Izy ka niady taminy.
But they rebelled, and vexed his holy Spirit: therefore he was turned to be their enemy, [and] he fought against them.
11 Ary ny olony dia nahatsiaro ny andro taloha ela, dia ny tamin’ i Mosesy. Aiza Ilay nitondra azy mbamin’ ny mpiandry ondriny niakatra avy tamin’ ny ranomasina? Aiza Ilay nametraka ny Fanahy Masiny tao aminy,
Then he remembered the days of old, Moses, [and] his people, [saying], Where [is] he that brought them up out of the sea with the shepherd of his flock? where [is] he that put his holy Spirit within him?
12 Dia Ilay nampandeha ny sandriny be voninahitra teo ankavanan’ i Mosesy ka nampisaraka ny ranomasina teo anoloany, mba hanaovany anarana mandrakizay ho Azy,
That led [them] by the right hand of Moses with his glorious arm, dividing the water before them, to make himself an everlasting name?
13 Dia Ilay nitondra azy nita ny rano lalina, tahaka ny fandehan’ ny soavaly eny an-tany lemaka, ka tsy tafintohina izy?
That led them through the deep, as an horse in the wilderness, [that] they should not stumble?
14 Tahaka ny fidinan’ ny biby fiompy ho any an-dohasaha no nanomezan’ ny Fanahin’ i Jehovah fitsaharana ho azy: Tahaka izany no nitondranao ny olonao, Mba hanaovana anarana be voninahitra ho Anao.
As a beast goeth down into the valley, the Spirit of the LORD caused him to rest: so didst thou lead thy people, to make thyself a glorious name.
15 Mitsinjova eny an-danitra, ary mijere eny amin’ ny fonenan’ ny fahamasinanao sy ny voninahitrao; aiza ny fahasaro-piaronao sy ny asanao lehibe? Ny fandevilevin’ ny kibonao sy ny famindram-ponao dia voasakana tsy ho amiko.
Look down from heaven, and behold from the habitation of thy holiness and of thy glory: where [is] thy zeal and thy strength, the sounding of thy bowels and of thy mercies toward me? are they restrained?
16 Kanefa Hianao no Rainay, fa Abrahama tsy mahalala anay, Ary Isiraely tsy mahafantatra anay, Jehovah ô, Hianao no Rainay, ary Mpanavotra anay no anaranao hatrizay hatrizay.
Doubtless thou [art] our father, though Abraham be ignorant of us, and Israel acknowledge us not: thou, O LORD, [art] our father, our redeemer; thy name [is] from everlasting.
17 Jehovah ô, nahoana no nampiala anay tamin’ ny lalanao Hianao ka nampaniasia anay sady nanamafy ny fonay tsy hatahotra Anao? Miverena noho ny amin’ ny mpanomponao, dia ny firenena lovanao.
O LORD, why hast thou made us to err from thy ways, [and] hardened our heart from thy fear? Return for thy servants’ sake, the tribes of thine inheritance.
18 Vetivety foana no nananan’ ny olonao masìna ny tany; ny fahavalonay efa nanitsaka ny fitoeranao masìna.
The people of thy holiness have possessed [it] but a little while: our adversaries have trodden down thy sanctuary.
19 Efa tonga hoatra izay tsy notapahinao hatrizay hatrizay izahay sady tsy mba nantsoina tamin’ ny anaranao akory.
We are [thine: ] thou never barest rule over them; they were not called by thy name.
