Isaia 19
1 Ty nibekoeñe i Mitsraime. Hehe te mijoñe an-drahoñe mihititioke ty lay t’Iehovà homb’e Mitsraime mb’eo; mitroetroe o hazomanga’ i Mitsraimeo ami’ty fiatrefa’e, mitranake ama’e ao ty arofo’ i Mitsraime.
The burden of Egypt. “Behold, the LORD rides on a swift cloud, and comes to Egypt. The idols of Egypt will tremble at his presence; and the heart of Egypt will melt within it.
2 Hampifañatrefeko amo nte-Mitsraimeo o nte-Mitsraimeo; songa hifandrapake ami’ty rahalahi’e, sindre amy mpitrao-tanàñe ama’ey, rova ami’ty rova, fifeheañe ami’ty fifeheañe.
I will stir up the Egyptians against the Egyptians, and they will fight everyone against his brother, and everyone against his neighbor; city against city, and kingdom against kingdom.
3 Le ho kafoake ama’e ao ty kofò’ i Mitsraime; ho mongoreko ty fikililia’ iareo, vaho ho troboe’ iareo o jinio naho o angatseo, o doanio naho o trombao.
The spirit of the Egyptians will fail within them. I will destroy their counsel. They will seek the idols, the charmers, those who have familiar spirits, and the wizards.
4 Le hatoloko am-pitàm-pifehe mitrotrofiake o nte-Mitsraimeo, mpanjaka tsy tame ty hifehe iareo, hoe t’i Talè, Iehovà’ i Màroy.
I will give over the Egyptians into the hand of a cruel lord. A fierce king will rule over them,” says the Lord, GOD of Armies.
5 Ho ritse ty rano’ i riakey, ho hendatse naho maike i oñey.
The waters will fail from the sea, and the river will be wasted and become dry.
6 Hitrotròtse o sakao; hihakede ampara’ te kànkañe o torahañeo; hiforejeje ty bararata naho ty vinda.
The rivers will become foul. The streams of Egypt will be diminished and dried up. The reeds and flags will wither away.
7 O sale añ’olo’ i Sakaio, o am-binàñe’ i Sakaio, ho kirikitàñe ze teteke an-tamboho’ i Sakay eo, hisaoke, tsy ho eo ka.
The meadows by the Nile, by the brink of the Nile, and all the sown fields of the Nile, will become dry, be driven away, and be no more.
8 Handala amy zao o mpamintañeo, le hangoihoy iaby ze mpanora-binta amy Sakay; vaho hitike ty mpandamake harato amo ranoo.
The fishermen will lament, and all those who fish in the Nile will mourn, and those who spread nets on the waters will languish.
9 Ho salatse ka o mpandrare leny matifio, naho o mpanenoñe hasim-potio;
Moreover those who work in combed flax, and those who weave white cloth, will be confounded.
10 amy te hianto o mananta’eo, fonga ho lonjetse o mpikaramao.
The pillars will be broken in pieces. All those who work for hire will be grieved in soul.
11 Toe seretse o roandria’ i Tsoaneo; tsy manjofake ty fanoroa’ o mpanolo-heve’ mahihi’ i Paròo. Akore ty hatao’o amy Parò: Ana’ o mahihitseo iraho, ana’ o mpanjaka haehaeo?
The princes of Zoan are utterly foolish. The counsel of the wisest counselors of Pharaoh has become stupid. How do you say to Pharaoh, “I am the son of the wise, the son of ancient kings”?
12 Aia v’ iereo? Aia ze ondati’o mahihitse zao? Ampitaroño ama’o, ee te ho fohi’ iareo ty nisafirie’ Iehovà’ i Màroy amy Mitsraime.
Where then are your wise men? Let them tell you now; and let them know what the LORD of Armies has purposed concerning Egypt.
13 Fa nigegèñe o roandria’ i Tsoaneo; fa nifitaheñe o ana-dona’ i Nofeo; fa nampandrihe’ o natao ho vato-kotso’eo o fifokoa’ i Mitsraimeo.
The princes of Zoan have become fools. The princes of Memphis are deceived. They have caused Egypt to go astray, those who are the cornerstone of her tribes.
14 Nilaroe’ Iehovà ty fañahim-piolahañe; naho nampivembe’ iareo ty Mitsraime amo fitoloña’e iabio, hoe mpijike midaleandaleañe amy loa’ey.
The LORD has mixed a spirit of perverseness in the middle of her; and they have caused Egypt to go astray in all of its works, like a drunken man staggers in his vomit.
15 Le tsy ho aman-tolon-draha ty Mitsraime, ze mete hanoe’ ty loha ndra ty ohy, ty ran-tsatrañe ndra ty vinda.
Neither shall there be any work for Egypt, which head or tail, palm branch or rush, may do.
16 Hanahake ty ampela’ i Mitsraime amy andro zay: hititititike vaho ho hembakembañe amy fihelahelam-pità’ Iehovà’ i maroiy, ie ahelahela’e ambone’ iareo ey.
In that day the Egyptians will be like women. They will tremble and fear because of the shaking of the LORD of Armies’s hand, which he shakes over them.
17 Hampangebahebake i Mitsraime ty tane’ Iehodà, ndra ia ia mitalily ro hinevenevetse, ty amy fisafirie’ Iehovà’ i Màroy nañereñere aze.
The land of Judah will become a terror to Egypt. Everyone to whom mention is made of it will be afraid, because of the plans of the LORD of Armies, which he determines against it.
18 Ho lime ty rova an-tane Mitsraime ao ty hisaontsy an-tsaontsi’ i Kanàne amy andro zay, songa hifanta ami’ty tahina’ Iehovà’ i Màroy; hatao Rovam-Pandrotsahañe ty raike.
In that day, there will be five cities in the land of Egypt that speak the language of Canaan, and swear to the LORD of Armies. One will be called “The city of destruction.”
19 Amy andro zay ho añivon-tane’ Mitsraime ao ty kitrely am’ Iehovà, naho ty vatolahy am’ Iehovà amy efe-tane’ey,
In that day, there will be an altar to the LORD in the middle of the land of Egypt, and a pillar to the LORD at its border.
20 ho vilom-pitaliliañe Iehovà’ i Màroy, an-tane Mitsraime ao; fa hitoreo am’ Iehovà iereo ty amo mpanao sarererakeo, vaho hañitrifa’e Mpandrombake naho ty Maozatse hañaha iareo.
It will be for a sign and for a witness to the LORD of Armies in the land of Egypt; for they will cry to the LORD because of oppressors, and he will send them a savior and a defender, and he will deliver them.
21 Hampahafohine’ Iehovà i Mitsraime ty Fañova’e, naho ho fohi’ o nte-Mitsraimeo t’Iehovà amy andro zay; hitalahoa’iereo reke-tsoroñe naho enga, hifanta am’ Iehovà vaho hañavake.
The LORD will be known to Egypt, and the Egyptians will know the LORD in that day. Yes, they will worship with sacrifice and offering, and will vow a vow to the LORD, and will perform it.
22 Ho lafae’ Iehovà t’i Mitsraime, ho fofohe’e naho ho melañe’e; himpoly am’ Iehovà iereo, le hihalaly ama’e vaho ho jangañe’e.
The LORD will strike Egypt, striking and healing. They will return to the LORD, and he will be entreated by them, and will heal them.
23 Ho eo henane zay ty lalan-damoke boake Mitsraime añe pak’ Asore, le homb’e Mitsraime ty nte-Asore, naho homb’Asore ty nte-Mitsraime; vaho hitrao-pitalaho amo nte-Asoreo o nte-Mitsraimeo.
In that day there will be a highway out of Egypt to Assyria, and the Assyrian shall come into Egypt, and the Egyptian into Assyria; and the Egyptians will worship with the Assyrians.
24 Ho rai-toko-telo amy Mitsraime naho amy Asore t’Israele henane zay, fatarihañe añivon-tane ao, amy te
In that day, Israel will be the third with Egypt and with Assyria, a blessing within the earth;
25 nitahie’ Iehovà’ i Màroy, ami’ty hoe: Soatahy t’i Mitsraime ondatikoo, naho i Asore, satan-tañako, naho Israele lovako.
because the LORD of Armies has blessed them, saying, “Blessed be Egypt my people, Assyria the work of my hands, and Israel my inheritance.”
