Mpitsara 17
1 Nisy lehilahy tany amin’ ny tany havoan’ i Efraima, Mika no anarany.
And he was a man from [the] hill country of Ephraim and name his [was] Micaiah.
2 Ary hoy izy tamin’ ny reniny: Ilay sekely volafotsy zato amby arivo nalaina taminao, izay nasianao ozona sady nolazainao teo anatrehako, indro, ato amiko ny vola; izaho no naka azy. Dia hoy ny reniny: Hotahin’ i Jehovah anie ny zanako.
And he said to mother his one thousand and one hundred the silver which it was taken to you (and you *Q(K)*) you cursed and also you said in ears my here! the silver [is] with me I I took it and she said mother his [be] blessed son my by Yahweh.
3 Ary rehefa naveriny tamin’ ny reniny ny sekely volafotsy zato amby arivo, dia hoy reniny: Atokako ho an’ i Jehovah mihitsy ity vola avy amin’ ny tanako ity ka hatolotro ho anao, ry zanako, hanaovana sarin-javatra voasokitra sy sarin-javatra an-idina, ary ankehitriny dia averiko ho aminao izy.
And he brought back [the] one thousand and one hundred the silver to mother his and she said mother his certainly I consecrate the silver to Yahweh from hand my for son my to make a carved image and a molten image and therefore I will return it to you.
4 Ary rehefa naveriny tamin-dreniny ny volafotsy, dia naka volafotsy roan-jato ny reniny, ka nomeny ny mpanao an-idina hataony sarin-javatra voasokitra sy sarin-javatra an-idina; dia natao tao an-tranon’ i Mika izany.
And he brought back the silver to mother his and she took mother his two hundred silver and she gave it to the silversmith and he made it a carved image and a molten image and it was in [the] house of Micaiah.
5 Ary nanana tranon’ andriamanitra Mika sady efa nanao efoda sy terafima; ary ny zanany anankiray no natokany ka tonga mpisorony.
And the man Micah [belonged] to him a house of God and he made an ephod and teraphim and he filled [the] hand of one from sons his and he became of him a priest.
6 Tamin’ izany andro izany tsy nisy mpanjaka tamin’ ny Isiraely: fa samy nanao izay nataony ho marina avy ny olona rehetra.
In the days those there not [was] a king in Israel everyone the right in view his he did.
7 Ary nisy zatovo avy any Betlehema-joda, tamin’ ny fokon’ i Joda, ary Levita izy sady nivahiny tao.
And he was a young man from Beth-lehem Judah from [the] tribe of Judah and he [was] a Levite and he [was] sojourning there.
8 Ary ralehilahy niala tao an-tanàna Betlehema-joda hivahiny any amin’ izay azony hitoerana; ary nony nandeha izy, dia tonga tany amin’ ny tany havoan’ i Efraima tao an-tranon’ i Mika.
And he went the man from the city from Beth-lehem Judah to sojourn in where he will find and he came [the] hill country of Ephraim to [the] house of Micah to make journey his.
9 Ary hoy Mika taminy: Avy aiza moa ianao? Dia hoy kosa izy taminy: Levita avy any Betlehema-joda aho ka mandeha hivahiny eny amin’ izay azoko hitoerana.
And he said to him Micah from where? do you come and he said to him [am] a Levite I from Beth-lehem Judah and I [am] going to sojourn in where I will find.
10 Dia hoy Mika taminy: Mitoera atỳ amiko ianao, ary aoka ho raiko sy ho mpisoroko, dia homeko sekely folo volafotsy isan-taona sy fitafiana ary hanina. Dia niditra ilay Levita.
And he said to him Micah remain! with me and become of me a father and a priest and I I will give to you ten silver to the days and an order of garments and sustenance your and he went the Levite.
11 Ary nanaiky hitoetra tao amin-dralehilahy ilay Levita, ka dia tonga tahaka ny zanany izy.
And he was willing the Levite to dwell with the man and he was the young man to him like one from sons his.
12 Dia natokan’ i Mika ilay Levita, ka dia tonga mpisorony izy ary nitoetra tao an-tranon’ i Mika.
And he filled Micah [the] hand of the Levite and he became of him the young man a priest and he was in [the] house of Micah.
13 Dia hoy Mika: Fantatro izao fa hanisy soa ahy Jehovah, satria manana ity Levita ity ho mpisoroko aho.
And he said Micah now I know that he will do good Yahweh to me for he has become of me the Levite a priest.
