< Isaia 14 >

1 Aa ie tretreze’ Iehovà t’Iakobe, naho joboñe’e t’Israele, vaho hampimoneñe’e an-tane’ iareo eo; le hirekets’ am’ iereo ty renetane, hipitek’ amy anjomba’ Iakobey.
For Yahweh will have compassion on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel, and set them in their own land. The foreigner will join himself with them, and they will unite with the house of Jacob.
2 Ho rambese’ o kilakila’ ndatio naho hasese’iareo mb’an-toe’ iareo mb’eo; ie ho fanaña’ i anjomba’ Israeley ho mpitoroñe lahy naho ampela an-tane’ Iehovà ao; naho ho tsepahe’iareo o namahotse iareoo; vaho ho fehè’ iareo ­ o namorekeke iareoo.
The peoples will take them, and bring them to their place. The house of Israel will possess them in Yahweh’s land for servants and for handmaids. They will take as captives those whose captives they were; and they shall rule over their oppressors.
3 Ho tendreke amy andro hampanintsiña’ Iehovà anahareo amo fioremeña’ areoo, naho amo haorea’ areoo, naho amo fitromahañe namorekekeañe anahareoo,
It will happen in the day that Yahweh will give you rest from your sorrow, from your trouble, and from the hard service in which you were made to serve,
4 t’ie ho ente’ areo amy mpanjaka’ i Baveley añe ty tafatoño toy, ami’ty hoe: akore te nijihetse i mpamorekekey! naho nipendreñe i fidabadoañey!
that you will take up this parable against the king of Babylon, and say, “How the oppressor has ceased! The golden city has ceased!”
5 Fa pinoza’ Iehovà ty fitoño’ o lo-tserekeo, ty kobai’ o mpifeheo,
Yahweh has broken the staff of the wicked, the scepter of the rulers,
6 I nitolom-pamofoke ondatio ami’ty haboseha’ey, i nameleke ondatio ami’ty haviñera’e an-tsarerake tsy nimete kalañeñey.
who struck the peoples in wrath with a continual stroke, who ruled the nations in anger, with a persecution that no one restrained.
7 Manintsiñe iaby ty tane toy, vaho mitsiñe; ie ampipoñafan-tsabo.
The whole earth is at rest, and is quiet. They break out in song.
8 Eka mirebeke ty ama’o o sohihio, naho o mendorave’ i Lebanoneo: Kanao nazevoñ’ ambane irehe, tsy mitroatse ama’ay ty mpamira.
Yes, the cypress trees rejoice with you, with the cedars of Lebanon, saying, “Since you are humbled, no lumberjack has come up against us.”
9 Mangetseketseke ty ama’o ty tsikeokeoke hifanalaka ama’o amy figodaña’oy; ampibarakaofe’e ty ama’o o angatseo, o nifeleke tan-tane atoio; songa miongake amo fiambesa’eo o mpanjakam-pifeheañeo. (Sheol h7585)
Sheol from beneath has moved for you to meet you at your coming. It stirs up the departed spirits for you, even all the rulers of the earth. It has raised up from their thrones all the kings of the nations. (Sheol h7585)
10 Songa mifañontane ama’e manao ty hoe: Toe maleme manahake anay irehe! Ihe hambañe ama’ay!
They all will answer and ask you, “Have you also become as weak as we are? Have you become like us?”
11 Fa nampanjotso azo mb’an-kibory mb’atoy ty firegevoha’o, reketse ty fikoraha’ o karara’oo; Nalamake ambane’o ao o oletseo, vaho mañohoñe azo o kànkañeo. (Sheol h7585)
Your pomp is brought down to Sheol, with the sound of your stringed instruments. Maggots are spread out under you, and worms cover you. (Sheol h7585)
12 Akore ty nideboña’o boak’ andikerañey, ry vasian-kandro, ana’ ty fanjirik’andro! Finira mb’an-tane, ihe nimpamotsake o fifeheañeo.
How you have fallen from heaven, shining one, son of the dawn! How you are cut down to the ground, who laid the nations low!
13 Nanoe’o an-tro’o ao ty hoe: Hionjoñe mb’andikerañe mb’eo iraho, ambone’ o vasian’ Añahareo ty hañonjonako ty fiambesako, vaho hiambesatse am-bohim-pivory eo, amo ila’e avaratseo;
You said in your heart, “I will ascend into heaven! I will exalt my throne above the stars of God! I will sit on the mountain of assembly, in the far north!
14 Hionjoñe ambonen-dikera’ o rahoñeo iraho, hihambañako amy Abo-Tia.
I will ascend above the heights of the clouds! I will make myself like the Most High!”
15 Te mone hazotso mb’an-tsikeokeoke ao irehe, pak’am-para’ i halale’ i koboñeiy. (Sheol h7585)
Yet you shall be brought down to Sheol, to the depths of the pit. (Sheol h7585)
16 Hisamb’ azo o hahaisake azoo, hañarahara ty hoe: Itiañe hao indaty nampiezeñezeñe ty tane toiy, i ­nampihondrahondra o fifeheañeoy;
Those who see you will stare at you. They will ponder you, saying, “Is this the man who made the earth to tremble, who shook kingdoms,
17 Ty nanao ty tane toy ho ratraratra, naho nandrotsake o rova’eo; vaho tsy nanokake ty vala-bei’e himpolia’ o narohi’eo?
who made the world like a wilderness, and overthrew its cities, who didn’t release his prisoners to their home?”
18 Songa mirotse ami’ty enge’e o mpanjaka’ o fifeheañeoo, ie iabikey, sindre an-kibori’e ao.
All the kings of the nations sleep in glory, everyone in his own house.
19 F’ihe ka, ro navokovoko boak’ an-kibori’o ao hoe tsampañe tiva, an-tsaro’ ty vinono, tinomboke fibara, mihotrake mb’amo vato an-koboñeo hoe lolo linialiam-pandia.
But you are cast away from your tomb like an abominable branch, clothed with the slain who are thrust through with the sword, who go down to the stones of the pit; like a dead body trodden under foot.
20 Tsy hitrao-pileveñe am’ iereo, amy te narotsa’o ty tane’o vaho zinama’o ondati’oo; toe tsy ho tiahieñe ka ty tarira’ o lo-tserekeo.
You will not join them in burial, because you have destroyed your land. You have killed your people. The offspring of evildoers will not be named forever.
21 Mihentseña hanjamañe o ana’eo ty amo hakeon-droae’ iareoo; tsy mone hitroatse hitavañe ty voatse toy iereo, hanitsike o rova an-tane atoio.
Prepare for slaughter of his children because of the iniquity of their fathers, that they not rise up and possess the earth, and fill the surface of the world with cities.
22 Izaho, hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy, ty hitroatse am’ iereo, vaho haitoako amy Bavele ty añarañe naho ty sehanga’e, ty tariratse naho ty tamingañe, hoe t’Iehovà.
“I will rise up against them,” says Yahweh of Armies, “and cut off from Babylon name and remnant, and son and son’s son,” says Yahweh.
23 Hatoloko ho fanaña’ ty trandrake, ho babangoa-mangenakenake; le ho piopioheko am-pamafa- karotsahañe, hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy.
“I will also make it a possession for the porcupine, and pools of water. I will sweep it with the broom of destruction,” says Yahweh of Armies.
24 Nifanta’ Iehovà’ i Màroy ty hoe: Toe ho tondroke ze fitsakoreako; hijadon-ko do’e ze aereñereko.
Yahweh of Armies has sworn, saying, “Surely, as I have thought, so shall it happen; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand:
25 Ho folaheko an-taneko ao ty Asore, ho lialiàko am-bohiko eo; habalake ty joka’e am’ iareo, vaho havotsotse an-tsoro’ iareo ty kilanka’e.
that I will break the Assyrian in my land, and tread him under foot on my mountains. Then his yoke will leave them, and his burden leave their shoulders.
26 Izay ty safiry nalahatse ho a’ ty tane bey toy vaho itoy ty taña natora-kitsike amo fifeheañe iabio.
This is the plan that is determined for the whole earth. This is the hand that is stretched out over all the nations.
27 Naereñere’ Iehovà’ i Màroy, ia ty hahakalañe aze? Napololotse ty fità’e, ia ty hampipoly aze?
For Yahweh of Armies has planned, and who can stop it? His hand is stretched out, and who can turn it back?”
28 Tamy taoñe nahavilasy i Akhaze mpanjaka, ty niheova’ ty entañe toy.
This burden was in the year that King Ahaz died.
29 Ko mandia-taroba, ry Pilistý iabio, amy te pinozake ty kobaiñe nandafa azo, fa boak’ am-baha’ ty mereñe ty hitiria’ ty lapetake, ie ka ty hamoa fandrefeala mibela, mitiliñe.
Don’t rejoice, O Philistia, all of you, because the rod that struck you is broken; for out of the serpent’s root an adder will emerge, and his fruit will be a fiery flying serpent.
30 Hikama o loho rarakeo, naho hàndre am-pipalirañe ao o poi’eo; ho vonoeko ami’ty kerè o vaha’oo, izay ty hanjamanañe ty honka’o.
The firstborn of the poor will eat, and the needy will lie down in safety; and I will kill your root with famine, and your remnant will be killed.
31 Mañaoloa ry lalambey, mikoiha ry rova; mitranaha ry Pilistý, nahareo iaby; hehe te boak’ avaratse añe ty hatoeñe, tsy ama’e ty mitakàtrotse am-pirimboña’e.
Howl, gate! Cry, city! You are melted away, Philistia, all of you; for smoke comes out of the north, and there is no straggler in his ranks.
32 Akore arè ty hamaleañe o ira’ i fifeheañeio? T’ie naore’ Iehovà t’i Tsione le hitsoloke ama’e ondati’e misotrio.
What will they answer the messengers of the nation? That Yahweh has founded Zion, and in her the afflicted of his people will take refuge.
