Fitomaniana 1
1 Indrisy, mitoetra manirery izao ilay tanàna feno olona! Efa tonga toy ny mpitondratena izy! Ilay nalaza tamin’ ny firenena sy andriambavy tamin’ ny tany samy hafa dia efa miankin-doha kosa izao!
HOW DOTH the city sit solitary, that was full of people! How is she become as a widow! She that was great among the nations, and princess among the provinces, how is she become tributary!
2 Mitomany dia mitomany izy nony alina, ary ny ranomasony dia eny an-takolany; Izay rehetra tia azy dia tsy misy mampionona azy; Ny sakaizany rehetra efa nivadika taminy ka tonga fahavalony.
She weepeth sore in the night, and her tears are on her cheeks; she hath none to comfort her among all her lovers; all her friends have dealt treacherously with her, they are become her enemies.
3 Lasan-ko babo ny Joda noho ny fahoriana sy ny haben’ ny fanompoana; Mipetraka ao amin’ ny jentilisa izy, nefa tsy mahita fitsaharana; Izay rehetra nanenjika azy dia nahatratra azy teo an-ketena.
Judah is gone into exile because of affliction, and because of great servitude; she dwelleth among the nations, she findeth no rest; all her pursuers overtook her within the straits.
4 Ireo lalana mankany Ziona dia mitomany, satria tsy misy miakatra ho amin’ ny fotoam-pivavahana; Lao ny vavahadiny rehetra, misento ny mpisorony; Ory ny virijinany, ary Ziona dia efa azon’ ny fahoriana mangidy.
The ways of Zion do mourn, because none come to the solemn assembly; all her gates are desolate, her priests sigh; her virgins are afflicted, and she herself is in bitterness.
5 Ny rafiny no mpanapaka, ny fahavalony no miadana, Satria Jehovah no efa nampahory azy noho ny hamaroan’ ny fahotany; Ny zanany madinika dia lasan-ko babo eo anoloan’ ny fahavalony,
Her adversaries are become the head, her enemies are at ease; for the LORD hath afflicted her for the multitude of her transgressions; her young children are gone into captivity before the adversary.
6 Ary ny voninahitr’ i Ziona zanakavavy rehetra dia efa tsy ananany intsony; Ny mpanapaka azy dia toy ny diera tsy mahita ahitra, Ary mandeha reraka eo anoloan’ ny mpanenjika azy izy.
And gone is from the daughter of Zion all her splendour; her princes are become like harts that find no pasture, and they are gone without strength before the pursuer.
7 Tsaroan’ i Jerosalema amin’ ny andro fahoriany sy fanjenjenany ny zava-tsoa rehetra izay nananany hatry ny ela; Fa nony naripaky ny fahavalo ny olony, ka tsy nisy namonjy azy, dia nahita azy ny fahavalo ka nihomehy ny faharavany.
Jerusalem remembereth in the days of her affliction and of her anguish all her treasures that she had from the days of old; now that her people fall by the hand of the adversary, and none doth help her, the adversaries have seen her, they have mocked at her desolations.
8 Efa nanota dia nanota Jerosalema, ka izany no nahatonga azy ho fahavetavetana; izay rehetra nanaja azy dia mamingavinga azy, satria efa nahita ny fitanjahany ireny; Eny, na ny tenany aza dia miferinaina sady miamboho.
Jerusalem hath grievously sinned, therefore she is become as one unclean; all that honoured her despise her, because they have seen her nakedness; she herself also sigheth, and turneth backward.
9 Ny lotony dia teo amin’ ny moron-tongotr’ akanjony, tsy nitsapa farany izy; Dia mahagaga ny fietreny, tsy misy mampionona azy. Jehovah ô, jereo ny fahoriako, fa mirehareha ny fahavalo.
Her filthiness was in her skirts, she was not mindful of her end; therefore is she come down wonderfully, she hath no comforter. 'Behold, O LORD, my affliction, for the enemy hath magnified himself.'
10 Ny fahavalo naninjitra ny tànany naka ny zava-tsoany rehetra; Fa ny jentilisa, izay noraranao tsy hiditra amin’ ny fiangonanao, dia hitany tafiditra ao amin’ ny fitoerany masìna.
The adversary hath spread out his hand upon all her treasures; for she hath seen that the heathen are entered into her sanctuary, concerning whom Thou didst command that they should not enter into Thy congregation.
11 Misento ny olony rehetra, mitady hanina; Eny, atakalony hanina ny zava-tsoany hamelombelona ny ainy; Jehovah ô, jereo ka diniho, fa vingavingaina aho.
All her people sigh, they seek bread; they have given their pleasant things for food to refresh the soul. 'See, O LORD, and behold, how abject I am become.'
12 Moa tsy mampaninona anareo va, ry mpandalo rehetra? Jereo sy izahao raha mba misy fahoriana toy ny fahoriako, izay namelezany ahy, dia ilay nampahorian’ i Jehovah ahy tamin’ ny andro firehetan’ ny fahatezerany.
'Let it not come unto you, all ye that pass by! Behold, and see if there be any pain like unto my pain, which is done unto me, wherewith the LORD hath afflicted me in the day of His fierce anger.
13 Avy tany amin’ ny avo no nandatsahany afo ho amin’ ny taolako handoroany azy; Namela-pandrika harato haningorana ny tongotro Izy ka nampihemotra ahy; Nampahalao sy nampahareraka ahy mandritra ny andro Izy.
From on high hath He sent fire into my bones, and it prevaileth against them; He hath spread a net for my feet, He hath turned me back; He hath made me desolate and faint all the day.
14 Ny ziogan’ ny fahotako nofehezin’ ny tànany; Voaolana ireny ka tonga eo an-katoko; noketrahiny ny heriko; Natolotry ny Tompo ho eo an-tànan izay tsy leoko aho.
The yoke of my transgressions is impressed by His hand; they are knit together, they are come up upon my neck; He hath made my strength to fail; the Lord hath delivered me into their hands, against whom I am not able to stand.
15 Nataon’ ny Tompo tsinontsinona ny maheriko rehetra; Nanendry fotoana hamelezana ahy Izy, handringanana ny zatovoko; Ny Tompo nanosihosy an’ i Joda zanakavavy virijina toy ny eo amin’ ny famiazam-boaloboka.
The Lord hath set at nought all my mighty men in the midst of me; He hath called a solemn assembly against me to crush my young men; the Lord hath trodden as in a winepress the virgin the daughter of Judah.'
16 Izany zavatra izany no mampitomany ahy; e! ny masoko, ny masoko mamarin-dranomaso, fa lavitra ahy ny mpampionona izay tokony hamelombelona ny fanahiko; Ringana ny zanako, fa mahery ny fahavalo.
'For these things I weep; mine eye, mine eye runneth down with water; because the comforter is far from me, even he that should refresh my soul; my children are desolate, because the enemy hath prevailed.'
17 Ziona mananty tanana, nefa tsy misy mampionona azy; Jehovah nandidy ny amin’ i Jakoba mba ho tonga fahavalony ny manodidina azy; Jerosalema dia tonga fahavetavetana eo afovoan’ ireo.
Zion spreadeth forth her hands; there is none to comfort her; the LORD hath commanded concerning Jacob, that they that are round about him should be his adversaries; Jerusalem is among them as one unclean.
18 Marina Jehovah, fa efa nandà ny teniny aho; Ry firenena rehetra, masìna ianareo, mba jereo ny fahoriako; Lasan-ko babo ny virijinako sy ny zatovoko.
'The LORD is righteous; for I have rebelled against His word; hear, I pray you, all ye peoples, and behold my pain: my virgins and my young men are gone into captivity.
19 Nantsoiko ireo tia ahy, fa nofitahiny aho; Ny mpisoroko sy ny loholoko niala aina tao an-tanana, Tamin’ ny nitadiavany hanina hamelombelona ny ainy.
I called for my lovers, but they deceived me; my priests and mine elders perished in the city, while they sought them food to refresh their souls.
20 Izahao, Jehovah ô, fa azom-pahoriana aho, mandevilevy ny foko; Miontana ato anatiko ny foko, fa naditra dia naditra aho; Eny ivelany dia ny sabatra no mahafoana anaka, ary ao an-trano dia toa misy fahafatesana kosa.
Behold, O LORD, for I am in distress, mine inwards burn; my heart is turned within me, for I have grievously rebelled. Abroad the sword bereaveth, at home there is the like of death.
21 Reny fa misento aho; tsy misy mampionona ahy; Ny fahavaloko rehetra nandre ny fahoriako, ka faly izy, satria Hianao no nanao izany; Hahatonga izay andro nantsoinao Hianao, ka dia ho tonga tahaka ahy koa ireo.
They have heard that I sigh, there is none to comfort me; all mine enemies have heard of my trouble, and are glad, for Thou hast done it; Thou wilt bring the day that Thou hast proclaimed, and they shall be like unto me.
22 Aoka ho tonga eo anatrehanao ny faharatsiany rehetra, ary mba ataovy aminy kosa tahaka izay nataonao tamiko noho ny fahotako rehetra; Fa imbetsaka ny fisentoako, ka reraka ny foko.
Let all their wickedness come before Thee; and do unto them, as Thou hast done unto me for all my transgressions; for my sighs are many and my heart is faint.'
