Isaia 7

1 Ary tamin’ ny andron’ i Ahaza, zanak’ i Jotama, zanak’ i Ozia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, no niakaran-dRezina, mpanjakan’ i Syria, sy Pelza, zanak’ i Remalia, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, hanafika an’ i Jerosalema, nefa tsy nahafaka azy izy.

In the time of Ahaz, the son of Jotham, the son of Uzziah, king of Judah, Rezin, king of Syria, and Pekah, the son of Remaliah, king of Israel, came up against Jerusalem to besiege it; but he could not prevail against it.

2 Dia nambara tamin’ ny taranak’ i Davida hoe: Injao ny Syriana efa mitoby any amin’ ny Efraima. Ary nirondrona ny fony sy ny fon’ ny vahoakany toy ny firondronan’ ny hazo any an’ ala, raha asian’ ny rivotra.

And when it was told the house of David, that the Syrians had encamped in Ephraim, his heart was moved, and the hearts of his people, as the trees of the forest are moved with the wind.

3 Ary hoy Jehovah tamin’ Isaia: Mivoaha ianao sy Seara-jasoba zanakao hitsena an’ i Ahaza eo amin’ ny faran’ ny lakan-drano amin’ ny kamory ambony, eo amin’ ny lalambe mankamin’ ny sahan’ ny mpamotsy lamba,

Then said Jehovah to Isaiah, Go forth to meet Ahaz, thou and Shear-Jashub thy son, at the end of the aqueduct of the upper pool, in the way to the fuller's field;

4 ka lazao aminy hoe: Mitandrema, ka aza taitaitra foana; Aza matahotra, ary aoka tsy ho ketraka ny fonao Noho ireto tapa-porohana roa midonaka ireto, Dia ny firehetan’ ny fahatezeran-dRezina sy Syria ary ny zanak’ i Remalia.

and say to him: Take heed, and be quiet! Fear not, neither let thy heart he faint On account of the two tails of these smoking firebrands, On account of the fierce wrath of Rezin with the Syrians, and of the son of Remaliah,

5 Satria efa nanao saina hampidi-doza aminao Syria sy Efraima ary ny zanak’ i Remalia ka nanao hoe:

Because Syria deviseth evil against thee, Ephraim and the son of Remaliah, saying,

6 Andeha isika hananika an’ i Joda ka hampaharaiki-tahotra azy Ary hanafaka azy ho antsika ka hanangana ny zanak’ i Tabeala ho mpanjaka ao afovoany,

“Let us go up against Judah, and besiege the city, And take it, And set a king in the midst of it, Even the son of Tabeal.”

7 Dia izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: Tsy ho tanteraka izany, Ary tsy hisy izany;

Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: “It shall not stand, neither shall it be;

8 Fa ny lohan’ i Syria dia Damaskosy, Ary ny lohan’ i Damaskosy dia Rezina (Ary ao anatin’ ny dimy amby enim-polo taona dia ho rava ny Efraima ka tsy ho vanon-ko firenena intsony),

But the head of Syria shall still be Damascus, And the head of Damascus, Rezin; [[And within threescore and five years shall Ephraim be broken, that he be no more a people.]]

9 Ary ny lohan’ i Efraima dia Samaria, Ary ny lohan’ i Samaria dia ny zanak’ i Remalia. Raha tsy mety mino ianareo, Dia tsy ho tafatoetra.

And the head of Ephraim shall still be Samaria, And the head of Samaria, the son of Remaliah. If ye will not believe, neither shall ye thrive.”

10 Ary Jehovah mbola niteny tamin’ i Ahaza ihany ka nanao hoe:

Jehovah spake also again to Ahaz:

11 Mangataha famantarana amin’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao; eny, mangataha na ho avy amin’ ny lalina ambany, na ho avy amin’ ny avo ambony. (Sheol h7585)

“Ask thee a sign of Jehovah, thy God; Ask it from below, or in the height above!” (Sheol h7585)

12 Fa hoy Ahaza: Tsy hangataka aho, fa tsy haka fanahy an’ i Jehovah

And Ahaz said, I will not ask; I will not tempt Jehovah!

13 Dia hoy Isaia: Mihainoa ary, ny taranak’ i Davida: Ataonareo ho zavatra kely foana moa ny hanasatra ny olona, No dia hanasatra an’ Andriamanitro koa ianareo?

Then he said, Hear ye now, O house of David! Is it too small a thing for you to weary men, That ye should weary my God also?

14 Ary noho izany dia ny Tompo no hanome famantarana ho anareo: Indro, hanan’ anaka ny virijina ka hiteraka zazalahy, ary ny anarany hataony hoe Imanoela.

Therefore shall Jehovah himself give you a sign: Behold, the damsel shall conceive, and bear a son, And she shall call his name Immanuel.

15 Rehefa mahalala handà ny ratsy sy hifidy ny tsara izy, Dia rononomandry sy tantely no ho fihinany.

Milk and honey shall he eat, Until he learn to refuse the evil, and choose the good;

16 Fa raha tsy mbola mahalala handà ny ratsy sy hifidy ny tsara izany zaza izany, Dia ho lao ny tanin’ ireo mpanjaka roa maharaiki-tahotra anao ireo.

For before this child shall have learned to refuse the evil and choose the good, The land shall become desolate, On account of whose two kings thou art in terror.

17 Jehovah hahatonga aminao sy ny olonao ary ny mpianakavin-drainao Izay andro tsy mbola nisy toa azy Hatramin’ ny andro nialan’ i Efraima tamin’ ny Joda (Dia ny mpanjakan’ i Asyria);

Yet Jehovah shall bring upon thee, and upon thy people, and upon thy father's house, Days such as have not been Since Ephraim revolted from Judah. [[Even the king of Assyria.]]

18 Ary amin’ izany andro izany Jehovah hisiaka hiantso ny lalitra, izay any amin’ ny faran’ ny onin’ i Egypta, sy ny renitantely, izay any amin’ ny tany Asyria;

And it shall come to pass in that day That Jehovah shall whistle for the fly that is at the end of the streams of Egypt, And the bee that is in the land of Assyria,

19 Dia ho avy ireo, ka samy hipetraka amin’ ny lohasaha lao, sy eny an-tsefatsefaky ny harambato, sy eny amin’ ny fefy tsilo rehetra, ary eny amin’ ny saha fiandrasana rehetra.

And they shall come, and light all of them In the desolate valleys, and fissures of the rocks, And upon all hedges, and upon all pastures.

20 Amin’ izany andro izany koa ny Tompo hanaratra ny loha sy ny volon-tongotra Amin’ ny hareza nohofana any amoron’ ny Ony (Dia ny mpanjakan’ i Asyria); Ary ny volom-bava hokakasana amin’ iny koa.

In that day shall Jehovah shave, with a razor hired beyond the river, [[with the king of Assyria, ]] The head, and the hair of the feet; Yea, even the beard shall he take away.

21 Ary amin’ izany andro izany Dia samy hiompy ombivavy kely sy ondry roa ny olona;

And it shall come to pass in that day, That a man shall keep a young cow, and two sheep;

22 Ary noho ny haben’ ny ronono azo avy amin’ ireo dia hihinana rononomandry izy; Fa rononomandry sy tantely no ho fihinan’ ny olona sisa rehetra ao amin’ ny tany.

And for the abundance of milk which they produce, shall he eat cheese; For milk and honey shall all eat Who are left in the land,

23 Ary amin’ Izany andro izany dia ho rakotry ny hery sy ny tsilo Ny tany rehetra izay nisy voaloboka arivo nahazo sekely arivo.

And it shall come to pass in that day, That every place where stood a thousand vines, worth a thousand shekels of silver, Shall be covered with briers and thorns.

24 Zana-tsipìka sy tsipìka no ho entin’ izay miditra ao, satria rakotry ny hery sy ny tsilo ny tany rehetra.

With arrows and with bows shall men go thither; For all the land shall become briers and thorns.

25 Ary ny tanety rehetra izay nohevoina tamin’ ny angady dia tsy ho azonao diavina noho ny fahatahorana ny hery sy ny tsilo; Fa ho falehan’ ny omby sy ho voahitsakitsaky ny ondry aman’ osy izany.

All the hills that were digged with the mattock Shall no one approach through fear of briers and thorns; They shall be for the pasturage of oxen, And the trampling of sheep.
