Isaia 58

1 Mikoiha, ko mifoneñe, mipoñafa-feo hoe antsiva, vaho taroño am’ondatikoo ty fiolà’ iareo, naho am’ Iakobe o tahi’eo.

“Cry aloud! Don’t spare! Lift up your voice like a trumpet! Declare to my people their disobedience, and to the house of Jacob their sins.

2 Boak’andro iereo manao te mipay ahy, le mintse mifale handrendreke o satakoo, manahake t’ie fifeheañe mpanao havantañañe, hoe mbe lia’e tsy naforintse’e o fañèn’ Añahare’eo, vaho mipay zaka to amako, inao mahafale iareo ty mañarine aman’Añahare.

Yet they seek me daily, and delight to know my ways. As a nation that did righteousness, and didn’t forsake the ordinance of their God, they ask of me righteous judgements. They delight to draw near to God.

3 Ino ty nililira’ay, ihe tsy mahavazoho anay? Akore te nijoie’ay o tro’aio fe tsy nihaoñe’o? Inao! amy androm-pililira’ areoy ro mbore mitolon-draha, naho mampifanehake mpitoroñe.

‘Why have we fasted,’ they say, ‘and you don’t see? Why have we afflicted our soul, and you don’t notice?’ “Behold, in the day of your fast you find pleasure, and oppress all your labourers.

4 Isao te fañòlañe naho fifandierañe avao ty fililira’ areo, hanjevoña’ areo an-­komondron-kalo-tserehañe. Tsy ho janjiñeñe an-dindimoneñe ey i fililira’ areo anindroaniy.

Behold, you fast for strife and contention, and to strike with the fist of wickedness. You don’t fast today so as to make your voice to be heard on high.

5 Zao hao o fililirañe jinoboko ho androm-pilieram-batañeo? T’ie ho fihohòfañe hoe bararata hao, naho ho fandafihañe gony naho lavenoke ambane eo? Izay hao ty atao’ areo ho lilitse, ho andro no’ Iehovà?

Is this the fast that I have chosen? A day for a man to humble his soul? Is it to bow down his head like a reed, and to spread sackcloth and ashes under himself? Will you call this a fast, and an acceptable day to the LORD?

6 Tsy itoy hao o fililirañe joboñekoo? ty fañahàñe o silisilin-­kalo-tserehañeo naho ty hampibalahañe o tali-randran-jokao, ty hamotsorañe o forekekèñeo naho ty hampipozahañe ze hene ana-joka?

“Isn’t this the fast that I have chosen: to release the bonds of wickedness, to undo the straps of the yoke, to let the oppressed go free, and that you break every yoke?

7 Tsy ty handivàñe ty mahakama’o amo salikoeñeo hao, naho ty hampihovàñe añ’anjomba’o ao i mavomavo natao’o soike rezay, naho ty hanikinañe ty miboridañe te oni’o, vaho tsy iambohoa’o ty nofots’aman-dio’o?

Isn’t it to distribute your bread to the hungry, and that you bring the poor who are cast out to your house? When you see the naked, that you cover him; and that you not hide yourself from your own flesh?

8 Ie amy zao hipelatse ty hazavà’o manahake te manjirik’ andro, le halisa ty fijangaña’o, hiaolo azo ty havañona’o, vaho hanehak’ azo ty enge’ Iehovà.

Then your light will break out as the morning, and your healing will appear quickly; then your righteousness shall go before you, and the LORD’s glory will be your rear guard.

9 Hikanjy irehe henane zay, le hanoiñe azo t’Iehovà; hikaik’olotse le hanoe’e ty hoe: Intoy iraho. Naho asita’o añivo’o ao i jokay, i tondro-soñiy naho o tambaitambaiñeo,

Then you will call, and the LORD will answer. You will cry for help, and he will say, ‘Here I am.’ “If you take away from amongst you the yoke, finger pointing, and speaking wickedly;

10 Le ie ferenaiña’o o salikoo naho eneñe’o o foreforèñeo, le hanjirike añ’ieñe ao ty hazavà’o vaho hivalike ho tsipinde-mena ty fimoromoroña’o.

and if you pour out your soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul, then your light will rise in darkness, and your obscurity will be as the noonday;

11 Hiaolo azo nainai’e t’Iehovà, le ho eneñe’e ty fiai’o an-tsan-kerè, vaho hampaozare’e o taola’oo. Ho goloboñe soa-tondrake irehe, naho torahañe tsy mai-drano.

and the LORD will guide you continually, satisfy your soul in dry places, and make your bones strong. You will be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water whose waters don’t fail.

12 Hamboare’ o boak’ama’oo o tanàn-taoloo le hatroa’o o fahan-tariratse maroo, vaho hatao mpamboatse jebañe irehe, mpanomonty o lalam-pimoneñañeo.

Those who will be of you will build the old waste places. You will raise up the foundations of many generations. You will be called Repairer of the Breach, Restorer of Paths with Dwellings.

13 Aa naho avì’o amy Sabatay ty fandia’o tsy hañeañe o tolon-draha’oo amy androko masiñey; naho tokave’o ty hoe ‘mahafale’ o Sabotseo, ty andro masi’ Iehovà, naho amañ’engeñe, le iasia’o, tsy hañorike o lala’oo, naho tsy hipay ty mahafale azo, vaho tsy hisaontsy o enta’oo;

“If you turn away your foot from the Sabbath, from doing your pleasure on my holy day, and call the Sabbath a delight, and the holy of the LORD honourable, and honour it, not doing your own ways, nor finding your own pleasure, nor speaking your own words,

14 Ie hifale am’ Iehovà, le hampiningirako azo o haboa’ ty tane toio, vaho ho fahanako ami’ty lova’ Iakobe rae’o; izay ty nitsaraem-palie’ Iehovà.

then you will delight yourself in the LORD, and I will make you to ride on the high places of the earth, and I will feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father;” for the LORD’s mouth has spoken it.
