Isaia 18
1 Hankàñe, ty tane aman’elatse miñiñiñìñe, alafe’ o toraha’ i Koseo;
Oh, the lande shadowing with winges, which is beyond the riuers of Ethiopia,
2 Ie mampañitrike sorotà mb’an-driake, an-dakam-binda lava ambone’ o ranoo! Dàñe ry mpihitrike, masikà, mb’ an-tane’ ondaty abo naho aman-kolitse mendoo; ondaty mampangebahebake ty ao naho ty añe; ondaty gañe vaho mandialia, i tane’ iareo zarazaraen-torahañey.
Sending ambassadours by the Sea, euen in vessels of reedes vpon the waters, saying, Go, ye swift messengers, to a nation that is scattered abroade, and spoyled, vnto a terrible people from their beginning euen hitherto: a nation by litle and litle, euen troden vnder foote, whose land the floods haue spoyled.
3 Ry hene mpimoneñe ami’ty voatse toio, ry mpitoboke an-tane ao, ie mitroatse an-kaboa’ o vohitseo ty viloñe, le mahaisaha; naho mipopò i antsivay, mijanjiña.
Al ye the inhabitants of ye world and dwellers in the earth, shall see when he setteth vp a signe in the mountaines, and when he bloweth the trumpet, ye shall heare.
4 Fa hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà amako: hitàn-kahendrean-dRaho, vaho hijilojilo boak’am- pimoneñako atoy, hoe hatrevohan-tsingilingilieñe an-tariñandroke, manahake raho-mika an-katrovoham-pitatahañe,
For so the Lord saide vnto me, I will rest and beholde in my tabernacle, as the heate drying vp the rayne, and as a cloude of dewe in the heate of haruest.
5 aolo’ i fitatahañey, ie fa nihintsam-boñe, ie mihamatoe i valoboke makiray, le ho hitsikitsifem-pibira miporengotse o singa’eo, handrantsañe o tsampa’e mandrevakeo.
For afore the haruest when the floure is finished, and the fruite is riping in the floure, then he shall cut downe the branches with hookes, and shall take away, and cut off the boughes:
6 Harongoñe eo iereo ho a o voro-pitsindroke am-bohitseo, naho ho a o bibin-kivokeo; le ho ama’e o voro-pitsindrokeo naho asara, vaho hiasotry ama’e ze hene bibi’ ty tane toy.
They shall be left together vnto the foules of the mountaines, and to the beastes of the earth: for the foule shall sommer vpon it, and euery beast of the earth shall winter vpon it.
7 Ie amy andro zay, hanese ravoravo am’ Iehovà’ i Màroy ondaty abo naho aman-kolitse mendoo, ondaty mampangebahebake ao naho añeo; foko gañe vaho mandialia, an-tane zarazaraen-torahañe; mb’an-toen-tahina’ Iehovà i Màroy: mb’ambohi-Tsione mb’eo.
At that time shall a present be brought vnto the Lord of hostes, (a people that is scattered abroade, and spoyled, and of a terrible people from their beginning hitherto, a nation, by litle and litle euen troden vnder foote, whose land the riuers haue spoyled) to the place of the Name of the Lord of hostes, euen the mount Zion.
