Isaia 22
1 Ty nibangoeñe i Vavatanem- Pahaoniñañey: Ino ty maniloke azo henaneo gea, t’ie miañambone mb’an-tafo mb’eo iaby!
The burden of the Valley of Vision. What — to thee, now, that thou hast gone up, All of thee — to the roofs?
2 Atsa-koràke irehe, Ty rova mivalitsikotake, ty positse mirebeke tia! Toe tsy zinamam-pibara o nibaibay ama’ areoo, tsy nitsingoro an-kotakotake!
Full of stirs — a noisy city — an exulting city, Thy pierced are not pierced of the sword, Nor dead in battle.
3 Fonga nitrao-pivoratsake ty mpifehe’ areo, f’ie tsinepake tsy am-pale, hene miharo-rohy ze nitendreke ndra te niherereake añe.
All thy rulers fled together from the bow, Bound have been all found of thee, They have been kept bound together, Afar off they have fled.
4 Aa le hoe iraho, Aviho amako o fihaino’oo; apoho hangololoike ty tañy; ko imanea’o hohò, ty amy fandrotsahañe i anak’ampela’ ondatikooy.
Therefore I said, 'Look ye from me, I am bitter in my weeping, Haste not to comfort me, For the destruction of the daughter of my people.'
5 Fa ho andron-kankàñe, fandialiañe naho ampoheke, am-bavatanem-Pahoniñañe ao boak’ amy Talè Iehovà’ i Màroy; ty fandrotsahan-kijoly, vaho ty fikaikaihañe o vohitseo.
For a day of noise, and of treading down, And of perplexity, [is] to the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts, In the valley of vision, digging down a wall, And crying unto the mountain.
6 Nitintiñe i trañon’ana-paley t’i Elame reketse sarete naho ondaty naho mpiningi-tsoavala, vaho nañafake i sarom-pikalan- defoñey t’i Kire.
And Elam hath borne a quiver, In a chariot of men — horsemen, And Kir hath exposed a shield.
7 Ho tondroke te ho tsitsike sarete o vavatane’ areo fanjàkao, vaho hilahatse an-dalam-bey eo o mpiningi-tsoavalao.
And it cometh to pass, The choice of thy valleys have been full of chariots, And the horsemen place themselves diligently at the gate.
8 Hinalo’e ty saro’ Iehodà. Nitolihe’o amy andro zay o fialiañe añ’anjomban’alao;
And one removeth the covering of Judah, And thou lookest in that day Unto the armour of the house of the forest,
9 Nisamba’ areo o jeba’e an-drova’ i Davideo t’ie maro; vaho nitoha rano añ’antara ambane ey nahareo.
And the breaches of the city of David ye have seen, For they have become many, And ye gather the waters of the lower pool,
10 Nivolilie’ areo o anjomba’ Ierosalaimeo, vaho nakoroma’ areo ty anjomba ila’e hanosohañe i kijoliy.
And the houses of Jerusalem ye did number, And ye break down the houses to fence the wall.
11 Nandranjia’ areo talaha añivo’ i kijoly roe rey hitañe ty rano’ i antara antetsey—fe tsy niatoa’ areo i namboats’azey, tsy nihaoñe’ areo i nisafiry aze haehaey.
And a ditch ye made between the two walls, For the waters of the old pool, And ye have not looked unto its Maker, And its Framer of old ye have not seen.
12 Amy andro zay nikoike fangololoihañe, naho fandalàñe, t’i Talè, Iehovà’ i Màroy, naho fampikovohan-doha, vaho fisikinan-gony;
And call doth the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts, In that day, to weeping and to lamentation, And to baldness and to girding on of sackcloth,
13 Te mone: rebeke naho hafaleañe, tombok’añombe naho fandentàñ’ añondry, fikamàn-kena naho finoman-divay: Antao hikama naho hinoñe, ke ho mate maray!
And lo, joy and gladness, slaying of oxen, And slaughtering of sheep, Eating of flesh, and drinking of wine, Eat and drink, for to-morrow we die.
14 Aa le naboa’ Iehovà’ i Màroy an-tsofiko ao ty hoe: Toe tsy ho jebaña’o i hakeo zay ampara’ t’ie mihomake, hoe t’i Talè, Iehovà’ i Màroy.
And revealed it hath been in mine ears, [By] Jehovah of Hosts: Not pardoned is this iniquity to you, Till ye die, said the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts.
15 Hoe t’i Talè, Iehovà’ i Màroy: Akia mb’amy mpamandroñey, mb’amy Sebnà, mpifehe’ i trañoy mb’eo:
Thus said the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts: 'Go, enter in unto this steward, Unto Shebna, who [is] over the house:
16 Ino ty zo’o atoy? Ia o azo atoio, te nihalia’o kibory etoa ho am-bata’o, ie andavaha’o lonake an-kaboañe ey, naho kaokaohe’o ho azo ty fimoneña’o an-damilamy ao?
What — to thee here? And who — to thee here? That thou hast hewn out to thee here — a sepulchre? Hewing on high his sepulchre, Graving in a rock a dwelling for himself.
17 Inao! havokovoko’ Iehovà am-pivokovokoam-panalolahy añe irehe; eka ho gore’e an-jitse,
Lo, Jehovah is casting thee up and down, A casting up and down, O mighty one,
18 havarimbari’e vaho havoeboe’e hoe labole mb’an-tane miratraratra añe; añe ty hihomaha’o, ho añe ka o sareten’ enge’oo, ty hasalarañ’ anjomban-talè’o tia.
And thy coverer covering, wrapping round, Wrappeth thee round, O babbler, On a land broad of sides — there thou diest, And there the chariots of thine honour [Are] the shame of the house of thy lord.
19 Ho roaheko irehe tsy ho an-toe’o, le hafotsako ho ambanen-tsaranga’o ao.
And I have thrust thee from thy station, And from thine office he throweth thee down.
20 Ho tondroke amy andro zay te ho kanjieko t’i Eliakime ana’ i Hilkià, mpitoroko.
And it hath come to pass, in that day, That I have called to my servant, To Eliakim son of Hilkiah.
21 Le haombeako ty sarimbo’o, hadiako ama’e ty sadia’o, vaho hapoko am-pità’e eo i nifelehe’oy; ie ty ho rae’ o mpimone’ Ierosalaimeo, naho i anjomba’ Iehodày.
And I have clothed him with thy coat, And with thy girdle I strengthen him, And thy garment I give into his hand, And he hath been for a father to the inhabitant of Jerusalem, And to the house of Judah.
22 Hanoeko an-tsoro’eo i lahin-dakilèn’ anjomba’ i Davidey; ie manokake, tsy eo ty handrindry; ie mandrindriñe tsy eo ty hanokake.
And I have placed the key Of the house of David on his shoulder, And he hath opened, and none is shutting, And hath shut, and none is opening.
23 Haoreko hoe fàntake an-toe’e mafe eo; ie ty ho fiambesam-bolonahetse añ’anjomban-drae’e ao.
And I have fixed him a nail in a stedfast place, And he hath been for a throne of honour To the house of his father.
24 Le hasampe’ iareo ama’e iaby ty engen-anjomban-drae’e, o tariratseo naho o tamingañeo, ze fonga anam-pitiheke naho ze hene fitovy naho o sajoao.
And they have hanged on him All the honour of the house of his father, The offspring and the issue, All vessels of small quality, From vessels of basins to all vessels of flagons.
25 Amy andro añe zay, hoe t’Iehovà’ i Màroy, le hitrànkañe i fantake nazitse an-toe’e mafey, hipoñake le hideboñe, vaho hipitsoke ama’e o kilankañe tama’eo; fa nitsara t’Iehovà.
In that day — an affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts, Moved is the nail that is fixed In a stedfast place, Yea, it hath been cut down, and hath fallen, And cut off hath been the burden that [is] on it, For Jehovah hath spoken!'
