Isaia 55
1 O ry taliñiereñeo! Mb’an-drano mb’etoa! Ry tsy aman-dràlao, mb’etoa mivily, vaho mikama, eka, ikalò divay naho ronono tsy aman-drala, tsy amam-bili’e.
Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters! Even ye that have no money, come ye, buy and eat! Yea, come, buy wine and milk, Without money and without price.
2 Inoñe ty andrita’ areo drala amo tsy mahakamao, naho itoloña’ areo o tsy mañenekeo? Haoño iraho, mitsatsiha, vaho kamao ty soa, ampifaleo ty fiai’ areo ami’ty betro’e.
Wherefore do ye spend your money for that which is not bread, And your substance for that which doth not satisfy? Listen attentively to me; so shall ye eat that which is good, And your soul shall delight itself with delicacies.
3 Atokilaño amako o ravembia’ areoo; Mijanjiña, hahaveloñe ty tro’ areo, vaho hanoako fañina tsy modo, o fiferenaiña’ i Davideo.
Incline your ear, and come to me; Hear, and your soul shall live! And I will make with you an everlasting covenant; I will give you the sure mercies of David.
4 Ingo, t’ie nanoeko mpañalañalañe amo kilakila’ndatio, mpiaolo naho mpameleke ondaty.
Behold, I gave him for a commander to the nations; For a prince, and a lawgiver to the nations.
5 Ingo! ho koihe’o ty tane tsy fohi’o, vaho hilay mb’ama’o mb’eo ty tane tsy mahafohiñe azo, ty am’ Iehovà, Andrianañahare’o, i Masi’ Israeley, ihe nitolora’e engeñe.
Behold, the nation which thou knowest not thou shalt call; And the nation which knew not thee shall run to thee, For the sake of Jehovah, thy God, And of the Holy One of Israel, for he hath glorified thee.
6 Paiao t’Iehovà ie mbe mete ho oniñe, ikanjio te mbe marine eo.
Seek ye Jehovah, while he may be found; Call upon him while he is near;
7 Ee te hapo’ i tsereheñey o sata rati’eo vaho hado’ i mengokey o fikinià’eo; himpoly mb’am’ Iehovà hitretreza’e, naho mb’aman’ Añahare hilosora’e tàha.
Let the wicked forsake his way, And the unrighteous man his thoughts; Let him return to Jehovah, and he will have mercy upon him, And to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
8 Toe tsy fitsakoreako o vetsevetse’ areoo, vaho tsy lalako o lala’ areoo, hoe t’Iehovà.
For my thoughts are not your thoughts, Neither are your ways my ways, saith Jehovah.
9 Mira ami’ty maha ambone’ ty tane toy o likerañeo ty ha-andikera’ o lalakoo te amo sata’ areoo, naho o ereñerekoo te amo fitsakorean-tro’ areoo.
For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are my ways higher than your ways, And my thoughts than your thoughts.
10 Hambañe ami’ty fiavi’ o orañeo naho o oram-panala boak’ andindiñeo ie tsy mibalike, naho tsy tondraha’e hey o taneo hampamokara’e naho hampitovoaña’e, hamahana’e doria ami” ty mpitongy naho ampemba ami’ty mikama,
For as the rain and the snow descend from heaven, And return not thither, But water the earth, and make it bear and put forth its increase, That it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater;
11 Toe izay ty fiakara’ ty entako am-bavako ao; ie tsy holy mañomaño amako, fa ho fonire’e o satrikoo, vaho ho henefe’e ty namantohako.
So shall my word be, that goeth forth from my mouth; It shall not return to me void; But it shall bring to pass that which is my pleasure, And it shall accomplish that for which I send it.
12 Hiavotse an-kafaleañe nahareo, vaho hampionjoneñe am-pierañerañañe; ho poñafe’ o vohitseo ty sabo aolo’ areo, le hene hiteha-tañañe ze hatae am-patrañe añe.
For ye shall go out with joy And be led forth with peace; The mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, And all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.
13 Hitovoañe hisolo ty fatike ty mendoraveñe, vaho handimbe ty hisatse ty beifelañe. Ho fitiahiañe Iehovà izay, ho viloñe nainai’e tsy modo, tsy haitoañe.
Instead of the thorn shall grow up the cypress-tree, And instead of the bramble shall grow up the myrtle-tree, And it shall be to Jehovah for a name; For an everlasting memorial, that shall not pass away.
