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.
After these things I saw another angel coming down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened 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: Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great, and is become a habitation of demons, and a hold of every unclean spirit, and a cage 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 all the nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth became rich out of the abundance of her luxury.
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, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues;
5 Fa ny fahotany efa nitehika tamin’ ny lanitra, ary Andriamanitra efa nahatsiaro ny ratsy nataony.
for her sins have reached to heaven, and God hath 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.
Requite her even as she requited, and render to her double according to her works; in the cup which she mixed, mix to 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 as she glorified herself and lived luxuriously, so much torment and mourning give her. For she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no mourning;
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 in one day shall her plagues come, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be burned up with fire; for strong is the Lord God who judged 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 committed fornication and lived luxuriously 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 afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas, the great city! Babylon, the mighty city! for in one hour is thy 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 weep and mourn over her, because no one buyeth 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,
merchandise of gold and of silver, and of precious stones and of pearls, and of fine linen and of purple, and of silk and of scarlet; and all citron wood, and all manner of vessels of ivory, and all manner of vessels of most costly wood, and of brass, and iron, and 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 odors, and ointment, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and cattle, and sheep; and merchandise of horses and chariots and slaves; 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 thy soul desired are departed from thee, and all thy dainty and splendid things are perished from thee, and thou shalt find them no more.
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
The merchants of these things, who became rich by her, shall stand afar off for the fear of her torment, weeping and mourning,
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, the great city, that was clothed in tilde linen and purple and scarlet, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls!
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,
for in one hour so great wealth is made desolate. And every pilot, and every one that saileth to any place, and mariners, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar 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 out 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 cast dust on their heads, and cried out, weeping and mourning, saying: Alas, alas, the great city, whereby were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her wealth! 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, thou heaven, and ye saints and ye apostles and ye prophets! for God hath 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 strong angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall Babylon the great city be thrown down, and shall never more be found.
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 sound of harpers, and of musicians, and of pipers, and of trumpeters shall be heard in thee no more, and no craftsman, of whatever craft, shall be found any more in thee, and the sound of a millstone shall never more be heard in thee,
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 thee, and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard in thee no more; for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorcery were all the 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 have been slain upon the earth.
