Amosa 9

1 Nitreako nijohañe añ’ila’ i kitreliy t’i Talè, le hoe re: Vangò o tokona’eo, hiezeñezeña’ o tsotsò’eo, hampidemodemohañe o loha’eo; vaho ho zamaneko am-pibara ty sisa’e; tsy ho aman-tsehanga’e hioratse; tsy hipoliotse ty honka’e.

I saw the Lord standing beside the altar, and he said, “Strike the tops of the pillars, that the thresholds may shake. Break them in pieces on the head of all of them. I will kill the last of them with the sword. Not one of them will flee away. Not one of them will escape.

2 Ndra t’ie mihaly mb’an-Tsikeokeok’ ao, le hakare’ ty tañako, ndra t’ie manganike mb’an-dindi-mb’eo, hampizotsoeko. (Sheol h7585)

Though they dig into Sheol, there my hand will take them; and though they climb up to heaven, there I will bring them down. (Sheol h7585)

3 Ndra t’ie mietak’ an-kaboa’ i Karmele ao, ho kodebèko le hakareko boak’ao; ndra t’ie mikafitse am-pahaisahako ambane’ i riakey ao, le ho tokaveko boak’ ao i fañaneñey handrimita’e.

Though they hide themselves in the top of Carmel, I will search and take them out from there; and though they be hidden from my sight in the bottom of the sea, there I will command the serpent, and it will bite them.

4 Aa ndra te misese mb’an-drohy aolo’ o rafelahi’eo mb’eo iereo, boak’ añe ty hitokavako i fibaray hanjamañe; hentea’ o masokoo ho an-kankàñe, fa tsy ho ami’ty hasoa.

Though they go into captivity before their enemies, there I will command the sword, and it will kill them. I will set my eyes on them for evil, and not for good.

5 Ie mipaoke i taney t’Iehovà, Talè’ i màroy, hitranaha’e, le miharovetse iaby o mpimoneñeo; ie hionjoñe manahake ty fisorotombahañe, naho hizetse manahake i Saka’ i Mitsraimeiy.

For the Lord, the GOD of Armies, is he who touches the land and it melts, and all who dwell in it will mourn; and it will rise up wholly like the River, and will sink again, like the River of Egypt.

6 I mpandranjy o fanonga’e andikerañeo, naho nañoreñe i tafo’e bontoly ambone’ ty tane toy; I mikanjy o ranon-driakeo vaho adoandoa’e an-tarehe’ ty tane toiy; Iehovà ty tahina’e.

It is he who builds his rooms in the heavens, and has founded his vault on the earth; he who calls for the waters of the sea, and pours them out on the surface of the earth—the LORD is his name.

7 O ry ana’Israeleo, tsy ho hambañe amo tiri’ i Kosio amako hao nahareo? hoe t’Iehovà. Tsy Izaho hao ty nañakatse Israele an-tane’ i Mitsraime ao? Naho o nte-Pilistio boake Kaftore naho o nte-Arameo boake Kire?

Are you not like the children of the Ethiopians to me, children of Israel?” says the LORD. “Haven’t I brought up Israel out of the land of Egypt, and the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Syrians from Kir?

8 Inao! miatreatre o fifeheañe lifotse hakeoo o fihaino’ Iehovà, Talèo, vaho harotsako an-tarehe’ ty tane toy, fa tsy ho fonga mongoreko ty anjomba’ Iakobe, hoe t’Iehovà.

Behold, the eyes of the Lord GOD are on the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from off the surface of the earth, except that I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob,” says the LORD.

9 Inao te mandily iraho, vaho ho tsararaheko amo kilakila’ ondatio ty anjomba’ Israele manahake ty fitsararahañe tsako an-tsikelo, fa leo voa’e raike tsy hipok’ an-tane.

“For behold, I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel amongst all the nations as grain is sifted in a sieve, yet not the least kernel will fall on the earth.

10 Songa havetram-pibara o mpanan-tahiñe am’ondatikoo, o manao ty hoe: Tsy hitotofa’e, tsy hifanalaka ama’ay ty hankàñe.

All the sinners of my people will die by the sword, who say, ‘Evil won’t overtake nor meet us.’

11 Haonjoko amy andro zay ty kiboho’ i Davide nikoromakey naho hakatoko o vinàkio; naho hatroako o nihotrakeo, vaho hamboareko manahake tañ’andro taolo;

In that day I will raise up the tent of David who is fallen and close up its breaches, and I will raise up its ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old,

12 Le ho fanaña’ iareo ty sehanga’ i Dame naho o kilakila’ ondaty kanjieñe ami’ty añarakoo, hoe t’Iehovà mpanao izay.

that they may possess the remnant of Edom and all the nations who are called by my name,” says the LORD who does this.

13 Inao, ho tondroke ty andro, hoe t’Iehovà, te ho losore’ ty mpitrabake ty mpanatake naho ty mpandia valoboke ty mpitongy tabiry; le hamopoke divay mamy o vohitseo, hikararake boak’an-kaboañeo.

“Behold, the days come,” says the LORD, “that the ploughman shall overtake the reaper, and the one treading grapes him who sows seed; and sweet wine will drip from the mountains, and flow from the hills.

14 Le hafoteko ty fandrohiza’ ondatiko Israeleo, naho haore’ iereo o tanàn-taoloo, himoneña’ iareo; naho hambole tanem-baloboke, naho hinoñe divay ama’e, naho hañalahala golobon-traka, vaho ho kamae’ iareo o voka’eo.

I will bring my people Israel back from captivity, and they will rebuild the ruined cities, and inhabit them; and they will plant vineyards, and drink wine from them. They shall also make gardens, and eat their fruit.

15 Ie hamboleko an-tane’ iareo eo, vaho tsy hombotañe amy tane’ natoloko iareoy ka, hoe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare.

I will plant them on their land, and they will no more be plucked up out of their land which I have given them,” says the LORD your God.
