Isaia 33
1 Hankàñe ama’o ty mpandrotsake, ihe tsy rinotsake; ty mpamañahy, ihe tsy nifañahieñey! ie migadoñe ty fikopaha’o, le ho kopaheñe, ie itroara’o o famañahia’oo, le ho fañahieñe.
Woe to thee, thou spoiler, who hast not been spoiled! Thou plunderer, who hast not been plundered! When thou hast ceased to spoil, thou shalt be spoiled; When thou hast finished plundering, they shall plunder thee.
2 O ry Iehovà, toloro arofo zahay; fa mandiñe Azo; ehe te Ihe ho fità’ iareo boa’ maraiñe, naho ty fandrombahañe anay an-tsan-koheke.
O Jehovah, have mercy upon us! in thee do we trust; Be thou our strength every morning, Our salvation in the time of trouble.
3 Mampitriban-day ondatio i feon-koràkey; mibaibay o fifeheañeo ami’ty fiongaha’o.
At the voice of thy thunder the people flee; When thou dost arise, the nations are scattered.
4 Ahoro’e ty kinopa’areo manahake ty añoroña’ ty beañe; hoe fifamorohotan-kijeja ty ifamorohota'iareo.
Your spoil shall be gathered, as the locust gathereth; As the locust runneth, so shall they run upon it.
5 Onjoneñe t’Iehovà an-tiotiots' añe ty fimoneña’e; fa natsafe'e hatò naho havantanañe t’i Tsione.
Jehovah is exalted; Yea, he dwelleth on high; He filleth Zion with justice and righteousness.
6 Ie ty hampijadoñe o tao’oo an-kakaliforam-pandrombahañe; ty hihitse naho ty hilala vaho ty fañeveñañe am’ Iehovà ro toe vara’e.
There shall be security in thy times; Wisdom and knowledge shall be thy store of prosperity, And the fear of Jehovah, this shall be thy treasure!
7 Inao! mangoihoy an-tameañe ey ty lahitsiai’ iareo, mangololoike o sorotàm-pañanintsiñeo.
Behold, the mighty men cry without: The ambassadors of peace weep bitterly.
8 Vahiny o lalañeo tsy amam-pañavelo, nifotera’e i fañinay, tsinambolitio’e o rovao, tsy haoñe’e ondatio.
The highways are desolate; The traveller ceaseth; He breaketh the covenant; he despiseth the cities; Of men he maketh no account.
9 Mandala o taneo vaho miforejeje; salatse ty Lebanone, miheatse; hoe fatran-tane ty Sarone mihintsam-boa ty Karmele naho i Basane.
The land mourneth and languisheth; Lebanon is put to shame, and withered away; Sharon is like a desert, And Bashan and Carmel are stripped of their leaves.
10 Hiongake amy zao iraho, hoe t’Iehovà; honjonen-dRaho henaneo, ho rengen-dRaho henane zao.
Now will I arise, saith Jehovah, Now will I exalt myself, Now will I lift myself up.
11 Mampiareñe kafo’e nahareo, hisamake forompotse; hamorototo anahareo hoe afo ty kofò’areo.
Ye shall conceive chaff, and bring forth stubble; Your own wrath is the fire which shall devour you.
12 Ho tomomoheñe hoe sokày ondatio, hoe fatike finira, nitomontoñe añ’afo,
The nations shall be burnt into lime; Like thorns cut down, they shall be consumed with fire.
13 Mijanjiña ry an-tsietoitane añe, ino o nanoekoo? Ry marine eo, iantofo o haozarakoo.
Hear, ye that are far off, what I have done; Mark, ye that are near, my power!
14 Mirevendreveñe o mpanan-kakeo e Tsioneo fihine’ ty fihitikitike ty tsy aman-Kake. ia aman-tika ty hahafitoboke amo afo mamorototoo, ia aman-tika ty hahafimoneñe amo afo manòba nainai’eo?
The sinners in Zion are struck with dread; Terror hath seized upon the unrighteous: “Who among us can dwell in devouring fire? Who among us can dwell in everlasting flames?”
15 I mpañavelo an-kavantañañe, naho misaontsy an-kavañonañey; ie tsy mañaoñe ty varam-pikatramoañe, i mañelahela fitàñe tsy handrambesa’e vokàñey, ty manjenjen-dravembia tsy ho janjiña’e ze o fampiorihan-dio zao, ie mikipe fihaino tsy hahaisaha’e ty raty.
He that walketh in righteousness, And speaketh that which is right, That despiseth the gain of oppression, And shaketh his hands from bribery, That stoppeth his ears, so as not to hear of blood, And shutteth his eyes, so as not to behold iniquity.
16 Himoneñe an-kaboañe ey re, kijolim-bato ty ho fipalira’e, hazotso ama’e ty mahakama’e, tsy hisike ty rano’e.
He shall dwell on high; The strongholds of rocks shall be his defence; His bread shall be given him; His water shall not fail.
17 Ho isam-pihaino’o ami’ty hatsomerentsere’e i mpanjakay; ho oni’ iareo ty tane mitakatse añe.
Thine eyes shall see the king in his glory They shall survey a wide-extended land.
18 Hañerehere ty tro’o ty fangebahebahañe: Aia i mpamoliliy, aia i mpandanjay? Aia i mpañiake o fitalakesañ’abooy?
Thy heart shall meditate on the past terror: “Where now is the scribe? Where the weigher of tribute? Where he that numbered the towers?”
19 Tsy ho isa’o ka ondaty mangosasàkeo; ondaty aman-tsaontsy miheotse tsy fohiñeo, o amam-pameleke mibedobedo tsy rendre’o.
Thou shalt see no more a fierce people, A people of a dark language, which thou couldst not hear, And of a barbarous tongue, which thou couldst not understand;
20 Vazohò t’i Tsione, i rovam-pamantaña-masin-tikañey; ho isam-pihaino’o te fimoneñañe mierañerañe t’Ierosalaime, kijoly tsy hahoroñe, amam-pàntake tsy hombotañe, aman-taly tsy ho tampaheñe.
Thou shalt see Zion, the city of our solemn feasts; Thine eyes shall behold Jerusalem, as a quiet habitation. A tent that shall never be moved, Whose stakes shall never be taken away, And whose cords shall never be broken.
21 Hindre aman-tikañe ami’ty volonahe’e, t’Iehovà, an-toetse amañ’oñe naho torahañe mibànatse; tsy handenà’ ty lakañ’ am-pivey, tsy ho rangaen-tsambo.
For there the glorious Jehovah will be to us Instead of rivers and broad streams, Which no oared galley shall pass, And no gallant ship go through.
22 Toe mpizakan-tika t’Iehovà Mpandily antika t’Iehovà, Mpanjakan-tika t’Iehovà; Ie ty handrombake an-tika.
For Jehovah is our judge; Jehovah is our lawgiver; Jehovah is our king; it is he that will save us.
23 Fa migebañe o talin-tsambo’oo, tsy mitàñe i fahan-daiy, tsy mamela-day; Akore ty habei’ o kinopake zaraeñeo kanao andivañe amo kepekeo.
Thy ropes hang loose; They cannot hold the mast-socket, Nor can they spread the sail. Then shall a great spoil be divided; Even the lame shall take the prey.
24 Tsy hanao ty hoe ty mpitoboke ao: Siloke iraho; Hafahan-kakeo ondaty mimoneñe aoo.
No inhabitant shall say, I am sick; The people that dwell therein shall be forgiven their iniquity.
