< Isaia 65 >
1 Notadiavin’ zay tsy naniry Aho sy hitan’ izay tsy nitady; hoy Izaho tamin’ ny firenena izay tsy nantsoina tamin’ ny anarako: Inty Aho! Inty Aho!
I allowed myself to be sought by those that asked not; I let myself be found by those that sought me not: I said, Here am I, here am I, unto a nation that called itself not by my name.
2 Namelatra ny tanako mandritra ny andro Aho tamin’ ny firenena miodina, izay mandeha amin’ ny lalana tsy tsara araka ny fisainany ihany,
I spread out my hands all the time unto a rebellious people, that walk in the way which is not good, after their own thoughts;
3 Dia firenena izay nahatezitra ahy mandrakariva na dia eo imasoko aza, izay mamono zavatra hatao fanatitra eo amin’ ny tanimboly Ary mandoro ditin-kazo manitra eny ambonin’ ny tanimanga,
[To] the people that provoke me to anger to my face continually; that sacrifice in gardens and burn incense upon [altars of] brick,
4 Dia izay mipetraka any amin’ ny fasana ary mitoetra mandritra ny alina ao am-pierena, sady mihinana henan-kisoa, ary ny ron’ ny hena fahavetavetana no ao amin’ ny loviany,
That sit about among the graves, and lodge in the vaults, that eat the flesh of the swine, and [have] broth of abominations [in] their vessels;
5 Izay manao hoe: Mihataha, fa aza manakaiky ahy, fa izaho no masìna, fa tsy ianao, ireny dia setroka ao am-bavoroko, eny, afo mirehitra mandritra ny andro.
That say, Stand by thyself, come not near to me; for I am holier than thou. These are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burneth all the time.
6 Indro, izao no voasoratra eo anatrehako: Tsy hangina Aho mandra-pamaliko anareo eny, mandra-pamaliko ho ao an-tratranareo
Behold, it is written before me; I will not keep silence, till I have recompensed, yea, recompensed into their bosom.—
7 Ny helokareo sy ny heloky ny razanareo koa, hoy Jehovah, dia izay olona nandoro ditin-kazo manitra teny an-tendrombohitra ary nihaika Ahy teny amin’ ny havoana; eny, hamatra ny valin’ ny asany ho ao an-tratrany Aho aloha.
Your iniquities and the iniquities of your fathers together, saith the Lord, who have burnt incense upon the mountains, and upon the hills have blasphemed me: and I will measure out their work at first into their bosom.
8 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Tahaka ny ranom-boaloboka hita ao antsampahony ka ataon’ ny olona hoe: Aza simbana, fa misy fitahiana ao anatiny dia toy izany no hataoko noho ny amin’ ny mpanompoko, ka tsy hanimba azy rehetra Aho.
Thus hath said the Lord, As the new wine is found in the cluster of grapes, and one saith, Destroy it not, for a blessing is in it; so will I do for the sake of my servants, that I will not destroy the whole;
9 Hahatonga taranaka avy amin’ i Jakoba Aho sy mpandova ny tendrombohitro avy amin’ i Joda; Ary ireo voafidiko no handova azy, eny, ny mpanompoko no honina ao.
And I let come forth out of Jacob a seed, and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains; and my elect shall inherit it, and my servants shall dwell there.
10 Sarona ho tonga fiandrasana ondry ary ny lohasaha akora ho fandrian’ omby, ho an’ ny oloko izay nitady Ahy.
And Sharon shall become a fold of flocks, and the valley of 'Achor a resting-place for herds, for my people that have sought me.
11 Fa ny aminareo izay mahafoy an’ i Jehovah sy manadino ny tendrombohitro masìna, sady mamelatra latabatra ho an’ i Gada sy mampidina divay noharoharoan-javatra ho an’ i Meny,
But ye who forsake the Lord, who forget my holy mountain, that set out a table for the god of Fortune, and that fill for Destiny the drink-offering.—
12 Dia hotendreko ho voan’ ny sabatra ianareo ka hankohofina hovonoina avokoa, satria niantso Aho, fa tsy namaly ianareo, niteny Aho, fa tsy nihaino ianareo, fa nanao izay ratsy eo imasoko, ary izay tsy sitrako no nofidinareo.
Yea, I will destine you to the sword, and all of you shall kneel down to the slaughter; because when I called, ye did not answer; when I spoke, ye did not hear; but ye did what is evil in my eyes, and that wherein I had no delight did ye choose.
13 Koa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Indro, ny mpanompoko hihinana, fa ianareo kosa ho mosarena; Indro, ny mpanompoko hisotro, fa ianareo kosa ho main-tenda; indro, ny mpanompoko hifaly, fa ianareo kosa ho menatra;
Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, my servants shall eat, but ye shall be hungry; behold, my servants shall drink, but ye shall be thirsty; behold, my servants shall rejoice, but ye shall be made ashamed;
14 Indro, ny mpanompoko hihoby noho ny faharavoam-po, fa ianareo kosa hitoloko noho ny alahelom-po sy hidradradradra noho ny fahoriam-panahy.
Behold, my servants shall sing for joy of heart, but ye shall cry out from pain of heart, and from a broken spirit shall ye howl;
15 Ary hamela ny anaranareo ho fiozonana amin’ ireo voafidiko ianareo, ary hahafaty anao Jehovah Tompo; fa ny mpanompony kosa dia homeny anaram-baovao;
And ye shall leave behind your name for an oath unto my elect ones, when the Lord Eternal will slay thee; but his servants will he call by another name.
16 Ka izay miarahaba tena etỳ ambonin’ ny tany dia hanao izany amin’ ny anaran’ Andriamanitry ny Amena; ary izay mianiana etỳ ambonin’ ny tany dia hianiana amin’ Andriamanitry ny Amena, satria efa hadino ny fahoriana taloha, sady voafina izany ka tsy hitan’ ny masoko.
Whoever there be that blesseth himself on the earth shall bless himself by the true God; and that sweareth on the earth shall swear by the true God; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hidden from my eyes.
17 Fa, indro, Izaho mahary lanitra vaovao sy tany vaovao, ka dia tsy hotsarovana intsony ny taloha, na ho mby ao an-tsaina akory aza.
For, behold, I will create new heavens and a new earth; and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind;
18 Fa mifalia kosa sy miravoravoa mandrakizay, satria mahary izany Aho; fa, indro, mahary an’ i Jerosalema ho fifaliana Aho ary ny olony ho firavoravoana.
But be ye glad and rejoice unto all eternity in what I create; for, behold, I will create Jerusalem for rejoicing, and her people for gladness.
19 Dia ho faly amin’ i Jerosalema Aho sy ho ravoravo amin’ ny oloko; ary ny feo mitomany tsy ho re any intsony, na ny feo mitaraina.
And I will rejoice over Jerusalem, and be glad in my people: and there shall not be heard in her any more the voice of weeping, nor the voice of complaint.
20 Ary na dia ny zaza minono any aza dia tsy ho fohy andro, ary tsy hisy anti-panahy izay tsy nahatapitra ny androny; fa mbola zatovo ihany izay maty na dia efa zato taona aza, ary ny mpanota aza, dia hahatratra zato taona vao hozonina.
There shall no more come thence an infant of few days, nor an old man that shall not have the full length of his days; for as a lad shall one die a hundred years old; and as a sinner shall be accursed he who [dieth] at a hundred years old.
21 Hanao trano ny olona ka hitoetra ao; Ary hanao tanim-boaloboka ny olona ka hihinana ny vokatra aminy.
And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat their fruit.
22 Tsy hanao trano hitoeran’ olon-kafa izy, Na hamboly zavatra hohanin’ olon-kafa; Fa ho tahaka ny andron’ ny hazo ny andron’ ny oloko, Ary ireo voafidiko dia hanaram-po amin’ ny asan’ ny tanany.
They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat; for as the days of a tree are the days of my people, and the work of their hands shall my elect wear out.
23 Tsy hisasatra foana izy, na hitera-jaza ho tratry ny loza tampoka; Fa taranak’ izay notahin’ i Jehovah ireo, Ary ny terany ho ao aminy.
They shall not toil in vain, nor bring forth unto an early death; for the seed of the blessed of the Lord are they, and their offspring with them.
24 Raha tsy mbola miantso aza izy dia hamaly Aho; Ary raha mbola miteny izy, dia hihaino Aho.
And it shall come to pass, that before yet they call will I answer; and while they are still speaking will I hear.
25 Ny amboadia sy ny zanak’ ondry hiara-komana, Ary ny liona hihina-mololo tahaka ny omby, Ary ny menarana, dia vovoka no ho fihinany; Ary tsy handratra na hanimba eran’ ny tendrombohitro masìna izy, hoy Jehovah.
The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall like the bullock eat straw: and the serpent—dust shall be his food. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, saith the Lord.
