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 was ready to be sought out by those who did not ask; I was ready to be found by those who did not seek. I said, 'Here I am! Here I am!' to a nation that did not call on 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 have spread out my hands all day to a stubborn people, who walk in a way that is not good, who have walked after their own thoughts and plans!
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,
They are a people who continually offend me, offering sacrifices in gardens, and burning incense on brick tiles.
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,
They sit among the graves and keep watch all night, and eat pork with the broth of foul meat in their dishes.
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.
They say, 'Stand away, do not come near to me, for I am holier than you.' These things are smoke in my nose, a fire that burns all day long.
6 Indro, izao no voasoratra eo anatrehako: Tsy hangina Aho mandra-pamaliko anareo eny, mandra-pamaliko ho ao an-tratranareo
Look, it is written before me: I will not keep quiet, for I will pay them back; I will repay them into their laps,
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.
for their sins and the sins of their fathers together,” says Yahweh. “I will repay them for burning incense on the mountains and for mocking me on the hills. I will therefore measure out their past deeds into their laps.”
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.
This is what Yahweh says, “As when juice is found in a cluster of grapes, when one says, 'Do not ruin it, for there is good in it,' this is what I will do for my servants' sake: I will not ruin them all.
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.
I will bring descendants from Jacob, and from Judah ones who will possess my mountains. My chosen ones will possess the land, and my servants will live there.
10 Sarona ho tonga fiandrasana ondry ary ny lohasaha akora ho fandrian’ omby, ho an’ ny oloko izay nitady Ahy.
Sharon will become a pasture for the flocks, and the Valley of Achor a resting place for herds, for my people who seek 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 you who abandon Yahweh, who forget my holy mountain, who prepare a table for Fortune, and fill wine glasses of mixed wine for Destiny.
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.
I will appoint you for the sword, and you will all bow down to the slaughter, because when I called, you did not answer; when I spoke, you did not listen. But you did what was evil in my sight and and chose to do what displeases me.”
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;
This is what the Lord Yahweh says, “Look, my servants will eat, but you will be hungry; look, my servants will drink, but you will be thirsty; look, my servants will rejoice, but you will be put to shame.
14 Indro, ny mpanompoko hihoby noho ny faharavoam-po, fa ianareo kosa hitoloko noho ny alahelom-po sy hidradradradra noho ny fahoriam-panahy.
Look, my servants will shout with joy because of gladness of heart, but you will cry because of the pain of the heart, and will wail because of the crushing of the spirit.
15 Ary hamela ny anaranareo ho fiozonana amin’ ireo voafidiko ianareo, ary hahafaty anao Jehovah Tompo; fa ny mpanompony kosa dia homeny anaram-baovao;
You will leave behind your name as a curse for my chosen ones to speak; I, the Lord Yahweh, will kill you; I will call my servants 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 pronounces a blessing on the earth will be blessed by me, the God of truth. Whoever takes an oath on the earth will swear by me, the God of truth, because the former troubles will be forgotten, for they will be 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 see, I am about to create new heavens and a new earth; and the former things will not be remembered or be brought to 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 you will be glad and rejoice forever in what I am about to create. See, I am about to create Jerusalem as a joy, and her people as a delight.
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.
I will rejoice over Jerusalem and be glad over my people; weeping and cries of distress will no longer be heard in her.
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.
Never again will an infant live there only a few days; nor will an old man die before his time. One who dies at one hundred years old will be considered a young person. Anyone who fails to reach the age of one hundred years old will be considered cursed.
21 Hanao trano ny olona ka hitoetra ao; Ary hanao tanim-boaloboka ny olona ka hihinana ny vokatra aminy.
They will build houses and inhabit them, and they will 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.
No longer will they build a house and another live in it; they will not plant, and another eat; for as the days of trees will be the days of my people. My chosen will fully outlive the work of their hands.
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 will not labor in vain, nor give birth to dismay. For they are the children of those blessed by Yahweh, and their descendants with them.
24 Raha tsy mbola miantso aza izy dia hamaly Aho; Ary raha mbola miteny izy, dia hihaino Aho.
Before they call, I will answer; and while they are still speaking, I will 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 will graze together, and the lion will eat straw like the ox; but dust will be the serpent's food. They will no longer hurt nor destroy on all my holy mountain,” says Yahweh.
