Isaia 3
1 Hehek’ arè te afaha’ Iehovà Talè’ i màroy am’ Iehodà naho am’ Ierosalaime ty fitoñoñe naho ty kobay, ze mahakama an-driha ao iaby, naho ze hene haja rano,
For, behold, the Lord, the LORD of hosts, doth take away from Jerusalem and from Judah stay and staff, the whole stay of bread, and the whole stay of water;
2 Ty fanalolahy naho ty lahindefoñe, ty mpizaka naho ty mpitoky, ty mpisikily naho ty androanavy,
the mighty man, and the man of war; the judge, and the prophet, and the diviner, and the ancient;
3 Ty mpifeleke limampolo naho ty manan-kasy, ty mpanolo-kevetse, ty kalitake vaho ty mahay lañonañe.
the captain of fifty, and the honourable man, and the counsellor, and the cunning artificer, and the skilful enchanter.
4 Ho tolorako ajaja ho roandria’e, ho felehe’ o anak’ajajao iereo.
And I will give children to be their princes, and babes shall rule over them.
5 Ho forekekèñe ondatio, sindre ondaty ami’ty ilae’e, songa ami’ty rañe’e hijiajia amo androanavio ty ajaja, naho amo vañoñeo ty tembo.
And the people shall be oppressed, every one by another, and every one by his neighbour: the child shall behave himself proudly against the ancient, and the base against the honourable.
6 Le hangazoñe t’indaty ty rahalahi’e añ’anjomban-drae’e ao: Manan-tsikin-drehe: feheo zahay, le angao ho ambane’ fità’o eo ty fianto toy.
When a man shall take hold of his brother in the house of his father, [saying], Thou hast clothing, be thou our ruler, and let this ruin be under thy hand:
7 Hifanta amy andro zay re: Izaho tsy ho mpanaha; amy te tsy ama-mahakama ndra saroñe ty an-trañoko ao, aa le ko ampifehè’o ahy ondatio.
in that day shall he lift up [his voice], saying, I will not be an healer; for in my house is neither bread nor clothing: ye shall not make me ruler of the people.
8 Amy te nikoletra t’Ierosalaime nihotrake t’Iehodà: songa mandietse Iehovà ty fameleke naho ty fitoloñañe, hanigike o fihainon-enge’eo.
For Jerusalem is ruined, and Judah is fallen: because their tongue and their doings are against the LORD, to provoke the eyes of his glory.
9 Manisý iareo ty vintan-dahara’ iareo; ie misenge hakeo manahak’ i Sedome, tsy aeta’ iareo. Hekoheko amo tro’ iareoo, fa nikai-kankàñe am-bata’e.
The shew of their countenance doth witness against them; and they declare their sin as Sodom, they hide it not. Woe unto their soul! for they have rewarded evil unto themselves.
10 Misaontsia amo vantañeo ty hoe, Soa! fa ho kamae’e o vokam-pitoloña’eo.
Say ye of the righteous, that [it shall be] well [with him]: for they shall eat the fruit of their doings.
11 Feh’ohatse amo lo-tserekeo: ho silofeñe: fa havahañe ama’e o satam-pità’eo.
Woe unto the wicked! [it shall be] ill [with him]: for the reward of his hands shall be given him.
12 Le ty am’ondatikoo, ty ajaja ro talè’e, naho ampela ro mpifeleke. O ry ondatikoo, ampandilare’ o mpifehe’areoo, abotse’iereo o lala ho norihe’areoo.
As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths.
13 Miongake t’Iehovà hitaroñe, mijohañe eo hizaka ondatio.
The LORD standeth up to plead, and standeth to judge the peoples.
14 Ho zakae’ Iehovà o androanavi’ondati’eoo naho o roandria’eo; Amy te nabea’ areo i tanem-balobokey; añ’anjomba’areo ao o tinavañe amo rarakeo.
The LORD will enter into judgment with the elders of his people, and the princes thereof: It is ye that have eaten up the vineyard; the spoil of the poor is in your houses:
15 Ino ty atao’ areo, kanao mampidemoke ondatikoo, vaho mandisañe ty lahara’ o rarakeo? hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà Talè’ i màroy.
what mean ye that ye crush my people, and grind the face of the poor? saith the Lord, the LORD of hosts.
16 Mbore tinovo’ Iehovà ty hoe: Kanao mitoandratoandra o anak’ampela’ i Tsioneo, naho miebotsebotse am-bozo midagarìtse naho ama-maso mikiroke, ie mitsapiotsapiok’ am-piotroñañe, vaho am-pikantsakantsañañe ty tombo’ iareo,
Moreover the LORD said, Because the daughters of Zion are haughty, and walk with stretched forth necks and wanton eyes, walking and mincing as they go, and making a tinkling with their feet:
17 le ho silofe’ i Talè lañao ty an-gadon-doha’ o anak’ampela’ i Tsioneo, vaho habora’ Iehovà ty fimeñara’ iareo.
therefore the Lord will smite with a scab the crown of the head of the daughters of Zion, and the LORD will lay bare their secret parts.
18 Hafaha’ i Talè amy andro zay o mohara soa’ iareo mikorìñeo, o ravak’ an-doha’eo, o tsiandetse bontolio,
In that day the Lord will take away the bravery of their anklets, and the cauls, and the crescents;
19 o rojoo, o bangebangeo o saron-doha mihofahofao,
the pendants, and the bracelets, and the mufflers;
20 o satro-beio, o ravam-pandiao, o ravan-dohao, o fibandian’arañañeo, o kiviroo,
the headtires, and the ankle chains, and the sashes, and the perfume boxes, and the amulets;
21 o bangeo naho o kavin’ oroñeo,
the rings, and the nose jewels;
22 o saravio, naho o salampiñeo, o kitambio naho o haro-pitintiñañeo,
the festival robes, and the mantles, and the shawls, and the satchels;
23 o hetsoroo, o lamba leny marerarerao, o sabakao vaho o tsingarakarakeo.
the hand mirrors, and the fine linen, and the turbans, and the veils.
24 Ho tondroke te ho limbeze’ ty fitrotrotse ty harifondrifoñe; handimbe ty fiètse ty hàfotse; handimbe ty volo mirandra ty loha peake; handimbe ty marerarera ty gony; hisolo ty montramontra ty soba.
And it shall come to pass, that instead of sweet spices there shall be rottenness; and instead of a girdle a rope; and instead of well set hair baldness; and instead of a stomacher a girding of sackcloth: branding instead of beauty.
25 Ho zamaneñe am-pibara o lahilahi’oo, an-kotakotak’ ao o lahindefo’oo.
Thy men shall fall by the sword, and thy mighty in the war.
26 Handala naho hangololoike o lalam-bei’eo; ho farien-dre le hitozoke an-tane eo.
And her gates shall lament and mourn; and she shall be desolate and sit upon the ground.
