< Zakaria 9 >

1 Teny faminaniana avy tamin’ i Jehovah ny amin’ ny loza hanjo ny tany Hadraka, Ary Damaskosy no hiharany ― Fa ny mason’ i Jehovah mandinika ny olombelona Mbamin’ ny firenena rehetra amin’ ny Isiraely ―
The burden of the word of the LORD. In the land of Hadrach, and in Damascus shall be His resting-place; for the LORD'S is the eye of man and all the tribes of Israel.
2 Sy Hamata koa, izay mifanolotra aminy, Ary Tyro sy Sidona koa, satria hendry izy.
And Hamath also shall border thereon; Tyre and Zidon, for she is very wise.
3 Ary Tyro nanao manda mafy ho azy Ka nanangona volafotsy hoatra ny vovoka Sy volamena tsara hoatra ny fotaka eny an-dalambe.
And Tyre did build herself a stronghold, and heaped up silver as the dust, and fine gold as the mire of the streets.
4 Indro, hofoanan’ ny Tompo ny fananany, Sady hasiany koa ny heriny ao amin’ ny ranomasina; Ary ny tenany ho levon’ ny afo.
Behold, the Lord will impoverish her, and He will smite her power into the sea; and she shall be devoured with fire.
5 Askelona hahita izany ka ho raiki-tahotra, Gaza koa, ka ho toran-kovitra indrindra, Ary Ekrona, fa ho tonga henatra ny fanantenany; Tsy hisy mpanjaka intsony ao Gaza, Ary Askelona tsy honenana.
Ashkelon shall see it, and fear, Gaza also, and shall be sore pained, and Ekron, for her expectation shall be ashamed; and the king shall perish from Gaza, and Ashkelon shall not be inhabited.
6 Zazasary no ho mpanjaka ao Asdoda, Ary hofoanako ny reharehan’ ny Filistina.
And a bastard shall dwell in Ashdod, and I will cut off the pride of the Philistines.
7 Hesoriko eny am-bavany ny ràny, Sy ny fahavetavetany tsy ho eny anelanelan’ ny nifiny; Ary izy koa ho sisa ho an’ Andriamanitsika Sy ho toy ny lohany amin’ ny firenen’ i Joda, Ary Ekrona ho toy ny Jebosita.
And I will take away his blood out of his mouth, and his detestable things from between his teeth, and he also shall be a remnant for our God; and he shall be as a chief in Judah, and Ekron as a Jebusite.
8 Ary hitoby Aho hiaro ny tranoko noho ny miaramila betsaka, Dia noho izay mandroso sy miverina; Ary tsy hisy mpampahory handeha hamaky eo aminy intsony, Fa ankehitriny dia efa hitan’ ny masoko.
And I will encamp about My house against the army, that none pass through or return; and no oppressor shall pass through them any more; for now have I seen with Mine eyes.
9 Mifalia indrindra, ry Ziona zanakavavy; Manaova feo fifaliana, ry Jerosalema zanakavavy; Indro, ny Mpanjakanao avy ho anao; Marina Izy sady manam-pamonjena, Malemy fanahy sady mitaingina boriky Dia zana-boriky tanora.
Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion, shout, O daughter of Jerusalem; behold, thy king cometh unto thee, he is triumphant, and victorious, lowly, and riding upon an ass, even upon a colt the foal of an ass.
10 Ary hofoanako tsy hisy kalesy intsony Efraima, Na soavaly any Jerosalema, Hofoanana koa ny tsipìka fiadiana, Ary hiteny fiadanana amin’ ny jentilisa Izy; Ny fanapahany dia hatramin’ ny ranomasina ka hatramin’ ny ranomasina Ary hatramin’ ny Ony ka hatramin’ ny faran’ ny tany.
And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem, and the battle bow shall be cut off, and he shall speak peace unto the nations; and his dominion shall be from sea to sea, and from the River to the ends of the earth.
11 Ny aminao koa, noho ny ran’ ny fanekena taminao No efa namoahako ny mpifatotrao avy tao an-davaka tsy misy rano.
As for thee also, because of the blood of thy covenant I send forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water.
12 Miverena ho amin’ ny fiarovana mafy, ianareo mpifatotra manana ny fanantenana! Anio no hanambarako hoe: Hanonitra roa heny ho anao Aho.
Return to the stronghold, ye prisoners of hope; even to-day do I declare that I will render double unto thee.
13 Fa nohenjaniko ho Ahy Joda, Efraima nataoko zana-tsipìka; Ary hotairiko ny zanakao, ry Ziona, hiady amin’ ny zanakao, ry Grisia, Ary hataoko toy ny sabatry ny lehilahy mahery ianao,
For I bend Judah for Me, I fill the bow with Ephraim; and I will stir up thy sons, O Zion, against thy sons, O Javan, and will make thee as the sword of a mighty man.
14 Ary Jehovah hiseho ao aminy, Ka handeha toy ny helatra ny zana-tsipìkany, Jehovah Tompo hitsoka anjomara Ka handeha amin’ ny tafio-drivotra any atsimo.
And the LORD shall be seen over them, and His arrow shall go forth as the lightning; and the Lord GOD will blow the horn, and will go with whirlwinds of the south.
15 Ary Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, no hiaro ireny; Dia hihinana ireny ka hanitsakitsaka vaton’ antsamotady; Ary hisotro ireny ka hihorakoraka tahaka ny azon’ ny divay, Ary ho feno toy ny lovia famafazana ireny, dia toy ny zoron’ ny alitara.
The LORD of hosts will defend them; and they shall devour, and shall tread down the sling-stones; and they shall drink, and make a noise as through wine; and they shall be filled like the basins, like the corners of the altar.
16 Ary hovonjen’ i Jehovah Andriamaniny ireny amin’ izany andro izany Toy ny olona izay ondriny; Fa ho toy ny vaton-tsatro-boninahitra Mamirapiratra eny amin’ ny taniny ireny.
And the LORD their God shall save them in that day as the flock of His people; for they shall be as the stones of a crown, glittering over His land.
17 Fa akory ny hasoany! ary akory ny hatsaran-tarehiny! Vary no hampaharoroka ny zatovo, Ary ranom-boaloboka kosa ny zazavavy.
For how great is their goodness, and how great is their beauty! Corn shall make the young men flourish, and new wine the maids.
