< Isaia 4 >

1 Amy andro zay, ho fihine’ ty rakemba fito ty lahilahy, hanao ty hoe: Ty mahakama’ay avao ty ho kamae’ay, naho ty saro’ay avao ty hiombea’ay; fe angao ho tokaveñe ami’ty tahina’o zahay, hañafahañe ty hasalara’ay.
In that day shall seven women lay hold of one man saying: We will eat our own bread, And wear our own garments, Only let us be called by thy name, And take away our reproach!
2 Ho fanjàka naho hanañ’engeñe ty tora-mionjo’ Iehovà amy andro zay, vaho ho fisengeañe naho volonahe’ ty nibotitsike am’Israele ty voka’ i taney.
In that day shall the increase of Jehovah be glorious and honorable, And the fruit of the land excellent and beautiful, For them that have escaped of Israel.
3 Ho tondroke te hatao miavake ze sehanga’e amy Tsione ao naho ze honka’e am’ Ierosalaime ao, eka, ze hene sinokitse ho veloñe e Ierosalaime ao,
All that remain in Zion, And all that are left in Jerusalem, Shall be called holy; Every one that is written down for life in Jerusalem.
4 ie fa sinasa’ i Talè amo anak’ampela’ Israeleo ty haleora’e; naho fa nimongore’e ty lio’ Ierosalaime boak’ añ’ate’e ao ami’ty arofon-jaka naho ami’ty arofom-piforehetañe.
When the Lord shall have washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion, And have removed the blood of Jerusalem from the midst of her, By a spirit of judgment and a spirit of destruction,
5 Le hanoe’ Iehovà ambone’ ze akiba ambohi’ i Tsione eo naho ambone’ o firimboña’eo ty rahoñe an-katoeñe te handro, vaho ty fireandreañ’ afo milebaleba te haleñe; le ho ey ty lafike ambone’ o engeñe iabio.
Then shall Jehovah create upon the whole extent of mount Zion, and upon her places of assembly, A cloud and smoke by day, And the brightness of a flaming fire by night; Yea, for all that is glorious there shall be a shelter;
6 Le ho eo ka ty bandrabandra naho antoandro amy hatrevohañey, naho fipalirañe vaho fitampinañe ami’ty tio-bey naho amo orañeo.
There shall be a tent by day for a shadow from the heat, And for a refuge and shelter from the storm and rain.
