Isaia 66
1 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Ny lanitra no seza fiandrianako, Ary ny tany no fitoeran-tongotro; Trano manao ahoana no hataonareo ho Ahy? Ary fitoerana manao ahoana no ho fitsaharako?
Yahweh says: “Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool. What kind of house will you build to me? Where will I rest?
2 Fa izao zavatra izao no nataon’ ny tanako. Ka dia ary izao rehetra izao, hoy Jehovah; Nefa izao no olona hotsinjoviko, Dia izay malahelo sy torotoro fanahy Sady mangovitra noho ny teniko.
For my hand has made all these things, and so all these things came to be,” says Yahweh: “but I will look to this man, even to he who is poor and of a contrite spirit, and who trembles at my word.
3 Izay mamono omby dia hoatra ny mamono olona; Izay mamono ondry hatao fanatitra dia hoatra ny mamolaka ny vozon’ alika; Izay manatitra fanatitra hohanina dia hoatra ny manatitra ran-kisoa; Izay mandoro ditin-kazo mani-pofona ho fanati-pahatsiarovana dia hoatra ny misaotra ny sampy. Eny, tahaka ny nifidianan’ ireny ny halehany, Sy ny nifalian’ ny fanahiny tamin’ ny fahavetavetany,
He who kills an ox is as he who kills a man; he who sacrifices a lamb, as he who breaks a dog’s neck; he who offers an offering, as he who offers pig’s blood; he who burns frankincense, as he who blesses an idol. Yes, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delights in their abominations.
4 Dia tahaka izany kosa no hifidianako ny fampahoriana azy, Sy handatsahako ny fahatahorany ho aminy, Satria niantso Aho, fa tsy nisy namaly, Niteny Aho, fa tsy nihaino izy; Fa nanao izay ratsy eo imasoko, Ary izay tsy sitrako no nofidiny.
I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears on them, because when I called, no one answered; when I spoke, they didn’t listen, but they did that which was evil in my eyes, and chose that in which I didn’t delight.”
5 Mihainoa ny tenin’ i Jehovah, Hianareo izay mangovitra noho ny teniny! Hoy ny rahalahinareo izay mankahala anareo, Ka mandroaka anareo noho ny amin’ ny anarako: Hampiseho ny voninahiny anie Jehovah, Mba ho faly mahita ny fifalianareo izahay! Kanefa ireny ho menatra kosa.
Hear Yahweh’s word, you who tremble at his word: “Your brothers who hate you, who cast you out for my name’s sake, have said, ‘Let Yahweh be glorified, that we may see your joy;’ but it is those who shall be disappointed.
6 Injany! horakoraka any an-tanàna, Ary feo ao amin’ ny tempoly, Dia feon’ i Jehovah izay mamaly ny ataon’ ny fahavalony.
A voice of tumult from the city, a voice from the temple, a voice of Yahweh that repays his enemies what they deserve.
7 Fony mbola tsy nihetsi-jaza aza izy, dia niteraka; Fony mbola tsy nanaintaina aza izy, dia velon-jazalahy.
“Before she travailed, she gave birth. Before her pain came, she delivered a son.
8 Iza akory no efa nandre zavatra toy izany? Iza no efa nahita zavatra toy izany? Hisy tany hateraka indray andro va, Na firenena azo atao indray miteraka? Fa raha vao narary hiteraka Ziona, dia velon-jaza izy.
Who has heard of such a thing? Who has seen such things? Shall a land be born in one day? Shall a nation be born at once? For as soon as Zion travailed, she gave birth to her children.
9 Izaho moa hahatonga ho eo amin’ ny fiterahana ka tsy hampiteraka va? hoy Jehovah; Izaho hampiteraka, nefa hampikombona indray va? hoy Andriamanitrao.
Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to be delivered?” says Yahweh. “Shall I who cause to give birth shut the womb?” says your God.
10 Miaraha mifaly amin’ i Jerosalema, Ary miravoravoa aminy ianareo rehetra izay tia azy; Aoka hiara-mifaly aminy tokoa Hianareo rehetra izay malahelo noho ny aminy,
“Rejoice with Jerusalem, and be glad for her, all you who love her. Rejoice for joy with her, all you who mourn over her;
11 Mba hinonoanareo sy hivokisanareo amin’ ny nonony mahafaly, Eny, mba higoka ianareo, Ka hiravoravo amin’ ny haben’ ny voninahiny.
that you may nurse and be satisfied at the comforting breasts; that you may drink deeply, and be delighted with the abundance of her glory.”
12 Fa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Indro, hitarihako fiadanana tahaka ny ony izy, Ary ny voninahitry ny firenena tahaka ny renirano tondraka, Ka hinono ianareo; Ary hosakalehina ianareo sady hohindrahindraina eo ambony lohalika.
For Yahweh says, “Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river, and the glory of the nations like an overflowing stream, and you will nurse. You will be carried on her side, and will be dandled on her knees.
13 Tahaka ny olona ampiononin-dreniny No hampiononako anareo; Eny, ao Jerosalema no hampiononana anareo.
As one whom his mother comforts, so I will comfort you. You will be comforted in Jerusalem.”
14 Dia hahita izany ianareo, ka ho faly ny fonareo, Ary ny taolanareo ho tsara fitombo tahaka ny ahi-matiso; Ary ny tànan’ i Jehovah dia ataony fantatry ny mpanompony, Fa ho tezitra amin’ ny fahavalony kosa Izy.
You will see it, and your heart shall rejoice, and your bones will flourish like the tender grass. Yahweh’s hand will be known among his servants; and he will have indignation against his enemies.
15 Fa, indro, Jehovah ho avy amin’ ny afo, Ary tahaka ny tadio ny kalesiny, Mba hanao famaliana amin’ ny fahatezerany mirehitra, Sy ny fitenenany mafy amin’ ny lelafo.
For, behold, Yahweh will come with fire, and his chariots will be like the whirlwind; to render his anger with fierceness, and his rebuke with flames of fire.
16 Fa ny afo sy ny sabany no ho entin’ i Jehovah hifandahatra amin’ ny nofo rehetra; Ary ho maro ny voaringan’ i Jehovah.
For Yahweh will execute judgment by fire and by his sword on all flesh; and those slain by Yahweh will be many.
17 Izay manamasìna sy manadio ny tenany ho ao an-tanimboly, Ka manaraka ny iray ao afovoany, Ary mihinana ny henan-kisoa sy ny zava-betaveta ary ny totozy; Dia hiaraka ho levona avokoa, hoy Jehovah.
“Those who sanctify themselves and purify themselves to go to the gardens, following one in the middle, eating pig’s meat, abominable things, and the mouse, they shall come to an end together,” says Yahweh.
18 Fa Izaho dia hamaly ny asany sy ny heviny, Ho avy ny hamoriana ny jentilisa rehetra sy ny samy hafa fiteny; Dia ho avy ireo ka hahita ny voninahitro.
“For I know their works and their thoughts. The time comes that I will gather all nations and languages, and they will come, and will see my glory.
19 Ary hasiako famantarana eo aminy, Ary izay afaka mandositra dia hirahiko ho any amin’ ny jentilisa, Dia ho any Tarsisy sy Pola ary Lydia, izay manenjana tsipìka, Ary ho any Tobala sy Javana, Dia ho any amin’ ireo nosy lavitra izay tsy mbola nandre ny lazako; Na nahita ny voninahitro, Ary hitory ny voninahitro any amin’ ny jentilisa izy.
“I will set a sign among them, and I will send those who escape of them to the nations, to Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, who draw the bow, to Tubal and Javan, to far-away islands, who have not heard my fame, nor have seen my glory; and they shall declare my glory among the nations.
20 Ary hitondra ny rahalahinareo rehetra izy, Avy any amin’ ny jentilisa rehetra ho fanatitra ho an’ i Jehovah, Mitaingin-tsoavaly sy ao anaty kalesy sy filanjana, Ary mitaingina ampondra sy rameva haingam-pandeha ho any Jerosalema tendrombohitro masìna, hoy Jehovah, Dia tahaka ny fitondran’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely ny fanatitra hohanina ao anatin’ ny vilia madio ho any an-tranon’ i Jehovah;
They shall bring all your brothers out of all the nations for an offering to Yahweh, on horses, in chariots, in litters, on mules, and on camels, to my holy mountain Jerusalem, says Yahweh, as the children of Israel bring their offering in a clean vessel into Yahweh’s house.
21 Ary avy amin’ ireo aza no hakako ho mpisorona sy Levita, hoy Jehovah.
Of them I will also select priests and Levites,” says Yahweh.
22 Fa tahaka ny lanitra vaovao sy ny tany vaovao, izay hataoko, no haharitra eo anatrehako, hoy Jehovah, Dia toy izany ny haharetan’ ny taranakareo sy ny anaranareo.
“For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me,” says Yahweh, “so your offspring and your name shall remain.
23 Ary isaky ny voaloham-bolana sy isan-tsabata; Dia ho avy ny nofo rehetra hiankohoka eo anatrehako, hoy Jehovah.
It shall happen that from one new moon to another, and from one Sabbath to another, all flesh will come to worship before me,” says Yahweh.
24 Ary hivoaka izy ireny ka hijery ny fatin’ ny olona izay efa niodina tamiko; Fa ny kankany tsy ho faty, ary ny afony tsy hovonoina, Ary hataon’ ny nofo rehetra ho fahavetavetana izy.
“They will go out, and look at the dead bodies of the men who have transgressed against me; for their worm will not die, nor will their fire be quenched, and they will be loathsome to all mankind.”
