Isaia 25
1 Ry Iehovà, Andrianañahareko irehe, hañonjoñ’Azo iraho, ho bangoeko ty tahina’o, ty amo fitoloña’o fanjàkao; ihe nisafiry haehae am-pigahiñañe naho an-katò.
O Jehovah, thou art my God; I will exalt thee, I will praise thy name; for thou hast done wonderful things, [even] counsels of old, in faithfulness [and] truth.
2 Fa nanoe’o votre ty rova, naho fianto i rova fatra-piaroy; tsy rova ka i anjomban’ ambahiniy, vaho tsy hamboareñe ka.
For thou hast made of a city a heap, of a fortified city a ruin, a palace of strangers to be no city; it shall never be built.
3 Aa le hañonjoñe Azo ondaty manjofakeo, hañeveñe ama’o o rovam-pifeheañe mitromoroñeo.
Therefore shall a strong people glorify thee; a city of terrible nations shall fear thee.
4 Fa nifipalira’ o rarakeo irehe, fitsoloha’ o misotrio, fiampirañe an-tio bey, fialofañe amy hatrovohañey; naho hoe tio-bey an-kijoly ty fikofoha’ o maharevendreveñeo.
For thou hast been a stronghold to the poor, a stronghold to the needy in his distress, a refuge from the storm, a shade from the heat, when the blast of the terrible ones is as a storm against the wall.
5 Manahake ty hatrevohañe an-tane maike eo, ty hampitsiña’o ty fikoraha’ o ambahinio; hambañe ami’ty talinjon-drahoñe amy fipisañañey, ty hampijomohoñe ty fibekoa’ o mangosasàkeo.
As the heat in a dry place wilt thou bring down the noise of strangers; as the heat by the shade of a cloud, the song of the terrible ones shall be brought low.
6 Ami’ty vohitse toy ty hañalankaña’ Iehovà’ i Màroy sabadidake amo raha mafirio ze kila ondaty, takataka aman-divay natadrètse, ty vondrake pea’ ty betron-taolañe, vaho divay soa-filomboke.
And in this mountain will Jehovah of hosts make unto all peoples a feast of fat things, a feast of wines on the lees, of fat things full of marrow, of wines on the lees well refined.
7 Le hagedra’e ami’ty vohitse toy ty fikolopofañe ami’ty vinta’ ze kila-ondaty naho ty marerarera mandrongoñe o fifeheañeo.
And he will destroy in this mountain the face of the covering that covereth all peoples, and the veil that is spread over all nations.
8 Hatele’e ho mongotse ty havilasy, vaho ho faohe’ i Rañandria Iehovà amy ze hene laharañe ty ranompihaino; hafaha’e ami’ty tane toy ty sirika’ondati’eo; izay ty nitsarà’ Iehovà.
He hath swallowed up death for ever; and the Lord Jehovah will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the reproach of his people will he take away from off all the earth: for Jehovah hath spoken it.
9 Ho tseizeñe amy andro zay, ty hoe: Toe Ie t’i Andrianañaharentika nitamañe handrombake an-tikañey, Ie Iehovà niliñisan-tikañey, antao hifale naho hirebeke amy fandrombaha’ey.
And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this is our God; we have waited for him, and he will save us: this is Jehovah; we have waited for him, we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation.
10 Fa ami’ty vohitse toy ty hitofà’ ty fità’ Iehovà, vaho ho lialiàñe an-toe’e eo t’i Moabe, hambañe ami’ty fandialiàñe ty ahetse an-ditsake ao.
For in this mountain will the hand of Jehovah rest; and Moab shall be trodden down in his place, even as straw is trodden down in the water of the dunghill.
11 Le ho velare’e añivo’iareo o fità’eo, manahake ty famelara’ ty pilaño hilañoa’e, fe harèke ty firengevoha’e rekets’ o taña-politì’eo
And he shall spread forth his hands in the midst thereof, as he that swimmeth spreadeth forth [his hands] to swim; but [Jehovah] will lay low his pride together with the craft of his hands.
12 naho harotsa’e ambane o kijoli’o fatratse mitiotiotseo, eka, halama’e; hazevo’e an-tane, toe an-deboke ao.
And the high fortress of thy walls hath he brought down, laid low, and brought to the ground, even to the dust.
