< Apokalypsy 18 >

1 Rehefa afaka izany, dia hitako fa indro, nisy anjely izay koa nidina avy tany an-danitra, nanana fahefana lehibe; ary ny tany nohazavain’ ny voninahiny.
And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lighted with his glory.
2 Ary niantso tamin’ ny feo mahery izy ka nanao hoe: Rava! rava Babylona lehibe! ka tonga fonenan’ ny demonia sy fieren’ ny fanahy maloto rehetra ary akanin’ ny vorona rehetra izay maloto sy ankahalaina.
And he cried with a strong voice, saying: Babylon the great has fallen, has fallen, and has become the habitation of demons, and the haunt of every unclean spirit, and the resort of every unclean and hateful bird.
3 Fa tamin’ ny divain’ ny fahatezerana noho ny fijangajangany no nahalavoan’ ny firenena rehetra, ary ny mpanjakan’ ny tany nijangajanga taminy, ary ny mpandranto amin’ ny tany tonga mpanankarena noho ny hafatratry ny nitiavan’ io ny zava-mahafinaritra ny tena.
For she has made all nations drink of the maddening wine of her lewdness; and the kings of the earth have practiced lewdness with her, and the merchants of the earth have become rich by the power of her voluptuousness.
4 Ary nahare feo iray koa avy tany an-danitra aho nanao hoe: Mialà aminy ianareo, ry oloko, mba tsy hiombonanareo ota aminy, ary mba tsy hisy hahazo anareo ny loza manjo azy.
And I heard another voice from heaven, saying: Come out of her, my people, lest you become partakers of her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues.
5 Fa ny fahotany efa nitehika tamin’ ny lanitra, ary Andriamanitra efa nahatsiaro ny ratsy nataony.
For her sins reach even to heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities.
6 Mamalia azy araka izay nataony, ka omeo azy indroa heny toy ny nataony izy; ny kapoaka izay nofenoiny, dia fenoy indroa heny ho azy.
Reward her as she has rewarded you, and render back to her double, according to her works: in the cup that she has mixed, mix for her double.
7 Toraka itsy niderany tena sy nivelomany tamin’ ny zava-mahafinaritra ny tena, dia omeo fanaintainana sy alahelo toraka izany koa izy, satria hoy izy anakampo: Mipetraka ho mpanjakavavy aho, fa tsy mpitondratena, ary tsy mba hahita alahelo mihitsy aho;
As much glory and voluptuousness as she has given to herself, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she says in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow.
8 koa noho izany dia ho tonga indray andro monja izao loza hanjo azy izao, dia fahafatesana sy fisaonana ary mosary, ary ho levon’ ny afo izy; fa mahery ny Tompo Andriamanitra, Izay nitsara azy.
Therefore, her plagues shall come in one day, death and mourning and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judges her.
9 Ary ny mpanjakan’ ny tany, izay nijangajanga taminy sy niara-nanaram-po taminy tamin’ ny zava-mahafinaritra ny tena, dia hiteha-tratra sy hitomany ary, raha mahita ny setroky ny fandoroana azy;
And the kings of the earth, who have practiced lewdness and lived voluptuously with her, shall weep and lament for her, when they see the smoke of her burning,
10 eny, hijanona eny lavitra eny izy noho ny fahatahorana ny fanaintainany ka hanao hoe: Indrisy! Indrisy! Babylona, izay tanàna lehibe! ry ilay tanàna mafy! fa tamin’ ny ora izay monja dia tonga ny fitsarana anao.
standing far off for fear of her torment, saying: Alas, alas, that great city of Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour has your judgment come.
11 Ary ny mpandranto amin’ ny tany dia hitomany sy hisaona azy; fa tsy hisy mpividy intsony ny entany:
And the merchants of the earth shall weep and lament over her, because no one buys their merchandise any more;
12 dia entana volamena sy volafotsy sy vato soa sy perila sy rongony fotsy madinika sy lamba volomparasy sy landy sy jaky sy hazo mani-pofona, sy ny fanaka ivory rehetra mbamin’ ny fanaka rehetra amin’ ny hazo saro-bidy indrindra sy varahina sy vy ary vato sanga,
the merchandise of gold and silver and precious stones, and of pearls, and of fine linen and purple, and of silk and scarlet; and every kind of thyme wood, and every kind of vessel of ivory, and every kind of vessel of most costly wood, and of brass, and of iron, and of marble:
13 sy havozomamy sy zavatra mani-pofona sy ditin-kazo sy menaka manitra sy ditin-kazo mani-pofona, sy divay sy diloilo sy lafarina tsara toto sy vary tritika sy omby sy ondry sy soavaly sy kalesy ary tena sy ain’ olona.
and cinnamon and amomum and incense, and ointment and frankincense, and wine and oil, and fine flour and wheat, and beasts and sheep, and horses and chariots, and bodies and souls of men.
14 Ary ny vokatra soa nirin’ ny fanahinao dia efa niala taminao, ary ny zava-tsoa rehetra sy ny zava-malaza rehetra dia efa levona tsy ho anao, ary tsy ho hita intsony mandrakizay ireo.
And the fruits that your soul desired have departed from you; and all things that are dainty and sumptuous have perished from you, and you shall find them no more at all.
15 Ny mpandranto izany zavatra izany, izay efa tonga mpanankarena taminy, dia hijanona eny lavitra eny noho ny fahatahorana ny fanaintainany ka hitomany sy hisaona
Those who traded in these things, who were made rich by her, Shalt stand far off for fear of her torment, weeping and mourning and
16 ary hanao hoe: Indrisy! indrisy! ilay tanàna lehibe, izay nitafy rongony fotsy madinika sy lamba volomparasy sy jaky ary niravaka volamena sy vato soa ary perila!
saying: Alas, alas, that great city, that was clothed in fine linen and purple and scarlet, and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls! for in one hour, so great riches have been brought to ruin.
17 Fa tamin’ ny ora iray monja no nahafoana ny harena be toy izany. Ary ny mpitondra sambo rehetra sy izay rehetra mandeha eny ambonin’ ny ranomasina sy ny matilo ary izay rehetra manao raharaha any an-dranomasina dia nijanona teny lavitra eny,
And every master of a ship, and every one in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood far off,
18 ary raha nahita ny setroky ny fandoroana ary, dia niantso nanao hoe: Aiza intsony re no misy tahaka izany tanàna lehibe izany?
and cried, when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying: What city is like the great city?
19 Ary nanopy vovoka hiraraka tamin’ ny lohany izy, dia niantso sady nitomany sy nisaona ka nanao hoe: Indrisy! indrisy! ilay tanàna lehibe, izay nampanan-karena izay rehetra manan-tsambo eny amin’ ny ranomasina noho ny zava-tsaro-bidy tao aminy; fa tamin’ ny ora iray monja no nahafoana izany.
And they threw dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and mourning and saying: Alas, alas, that great city, by which all that had ships in the sea became rich by means of costly merchandise! for in one hour she is made desolate.
20 Mifalia noho izay zavatra nanjo azy ianao, ry lanitra, sy ianareo olona masìna sy ianareo Apostoly, ary ianareo mpaminany; fa Andriamanitra efa nitsara azy ka namaly azy noho ny taminareo.
Rejoice over her, O heaven, and you saints and apostles and prophets: for God has avenged you on her.
21 Ary nisy anjely mahery anankiray nibata vato tahaka ny vato lehibe fikosoham-bary, dia nanipy izany tany an-dranomasina ka nanao hoe: Hatsipy mafy toy izany no ho fandrava an’ i Babylona, ilay tanàna lehibe, ka tsy ho hita intsony izy.
And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and threw it into the sea, saying: Thus, with violence shall Babylon, that great city, be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all.
22 Ary ny feon’ ny mpitendry lokanga sy ny mpitsoka mozika sy ny mpitsoka sodina ary ny mpitsoka trompetra dia tsy ho re eo aminao intsony; ary ny mpiasa rehetra mahay zavatra na inona na inona tsy ho hita eo aminao intsony; ary ny feon’ ny vato fikosoham-bary tsy ho re eo aminao intsony;
And the voice of harpers and musicians, and of pipers and trumpeters, shall be heard no more at all in you: and no artist of any art whatever, shall be found any more in you: and the sound of the millstone shall be heard no more in you:
23 ary ny fahazavan’ ny jiro tsy mba hahazava eo aminao intsony; ary ny feon’ ny mpampakatra sy ny ampakarina tsy ho re eo aminao intsony; fa lehiben’ ny tany ny mpandrantonao; fa ny ody ratsinao no nentinao namitaka ny firenena rehetra.
and the light of a lamp shall shine no more in you: and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more in you: for your merchants were the great men of the earth: for by your sorcery were all nations deceived.
24 Ary teo anatiny no nahitana ny ran’ ny mpaminany sy ny olona masìna sy itsy rehetra novonoina teny ambonin’ ny tany.
And in her was found the blood of prophets and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.
