< Isaia 6 >

1 Tamy taoñe nihomaha’ i Oziày, le nitreako miambesatse am-piambesatse abo naho nonjoneñe t’i Talè vaho nahaatseke i anjombay ty saravi’e.
In the year of the death of king Uzziah, I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up; and his train filled the temple.
2 Nijohañe ambone’e ey o seràfeo; songa aman’ elatse eneñe, ty roe nanakoñe ty lahara’e, ty roe nanaroñe o fandia’eo vaho nitiliñe ty roe.
Seraphim were standing above him: each had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he flew.
3 Ie nifampikoike ty hoe: Masiñe, masiñe, masiñe, t’Iehovà’ i Màroy; lifotse ty enge’e ty tane bey toy.
And one called to the other and said, Holy, holy, holy is Jehovah of hosts; the whole earth is full of his glory!
4 Nampiezeñezeñe o tokonañeo i feon-koikey, vaho natsafe’ ty hatoeñe i anjombay.
And the foundations of the thresholds shook at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke.
5 Le hoe iraho, Hankàñe amako, rebake, fa ondaty maleo-tsoñy, vaho añivo’ ondaty maleo-pivimby ty itobohako; fa nahatrea i Mpanjakay, Iehovà’ i Màroy, o masokoo.
And I said, Woe unto me! for I am undone; for I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, Jehovah of hosts.
6 Niti­liñe mb’ amako amy zao ty seràfe ninday vato mirekake am-pità’e, ie rinambe’e an-tsadrò boak’amy kitreliy ao,
And one of the seraphim flew unto me, and he had in his hand a glowing coal, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar;
7 le natoho’e ami’ty soñiko naho nanao ty hoe: Hehe, tinoho’ ty raha toy o fivim­bi’oo, vaho nijebañańe o tahi’oo.
and he made it touch my mouth, and said, Behold, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin expiated.
8 Tsinanoko ka ty fiarañanaña’ i Talè nanao ty hoe: Ia ty hiraheko, vaho ia ty homb’eo ho anay? Le hoe iraho: Intoy iraho; iraho!
And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? And I said, Here am I; send me.
9 Le hoe re: Akia, le saontsio am’ondaty retoañe: Toe mijanjiñe nahareo fe tsy mahafohiñe, mañente fe tsy mahaoniñe.
And he said, Go; and thou shalt say unto this people, Hearing ye shall hear and shall not understand, and seeing ye shall see and shall not perceive.
10 Ampibobòho ty arofo’ ondaty retoa, le ampivalagìño o ravembia’ iareoo, akipeo o fihaino’ iareoo; tsy mone hahaisake o fihaino’ iareoo, naho hitsendreñe o ravembia’ iareoo, naho hahafohiñe o arofo’ iareoo, vaho himpoly ho jangañeñe.
Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and blind their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and be converted, and healed.
11 Le hoe iraho: O Talè, pak’ombia? Le hoe ty natoi’e: Ampara’ te kòake o rovao tsy amam-pimoneñe, naho tsy ama’ondaty o anjombao, vaho vata’e ratraratra i taney,
And I said, Lord, how long? And he said, Until the cities be wasted, without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land become an utter desolation,
12 ie fa naveve’ Iehovà añe ondatio, vaho maro ty toetse hoakoake añivo’ i taney.
and Jehovah have removed men far away, and the solitude be great in the midst of the land.
13 Aa ndra te i faha-folo’ey ro sehanga’e, mbe habotseke avao; fe manahake te mbe eo ty foto’ o mendoraveñeo naho o kileo t’ie firaeñe, le i tiry miavakey ty ho foto’e.
But a tenth part shall still be therein, and it shall return and be eaten; as the terebinth and as the oak whose trunk [remaineth] after the felling: the holy seed shall be the trunk thereof.
