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, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yes, 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.
Why do ye spend money for [that which is] not bread? and your labor for [that which] satisfieth not? hearken diligently to me, and eat ye [that which is] good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.
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 an everlasting covenant with you, [even] the sure mercies of David.
4 Ingo, t’ie nanoeko mpañalañalañe amo kilakila’ndatio, mpiaolo naho mpameleke ondaty.
Behold, I have given him [for] a witness to the people, a leader and commander to the people.
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, thou shalt call a nation [that] thou knowest not, and nations [that] knew not thee shall run to thee because of the LORD thy God, and for 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 the LORD while he may be found, call ye 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: and let him return to the LORD, 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 the LORD.
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 cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, 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 proceedeth from my mouth: it shall not return to me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper [in the thing] for which I sent 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 come up the fir-tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle-tree: and it shall be to the LORD for a name, for an everlasting sign [that] shall not be cut off.
