¹Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name.

¹[Ny amin'ny Mpanompon'i Jehovah, Izay voatendry hamory sy hamonjy ny Isiraely sy ny firenena rehetra] Mihainoa Ahy, ry nosy, ary atongilano ny sofinareo, ry firenena lavitra; Jehovah efa niantso Ahy hatrany am-bohoka; Hatry ny fony Aho mbola tao an-kibon'ineny no efa nankalazainy ny anarako.

²And he hath made my mouth like a sharp sword; in the shadow of his hand hath he hid me, and made me a polished shaft; in his quiver hath he hid me;

²Ary nataony tahaka ny sabatra maranitra ny vavako; tao amin'ny aloky ny tànany no nanafenany Ahy. Ary nataony zana-tsipìka voalambolambo tsara Aho; teo amin'ny tranon-jana-tsipìkany no nanafenany Ahy.

³And said unto me, Thou art my servant, O Israel, in whom I will be glorified.

³Ary hoy Izy tamiko: Mpanompoko Hianao, ry Isiraely ô. Izay entiko mampiseho ny voninahitro.

⁴Then I said, I have laboured in vain, I have spent my strength for nought, and in vain: yet surely my judgment is with the LORD, and my work with my God.

⁴Fa hoy kosa Aho: Foana ny nisasarako, zava-poana sy tsinontsinona no nandaniako ny heriko; kanefa ao amin'i Jehovah ny rariny tokony ho Ahy, Ary ny valin'ny asako dia ao amin'Andriamanitro.

⁵And now, saith the LORD that formed me from the womb to be his servant, to bring Jacob again to him, Though Israel be not gathered, yet shall I be glorious in the eyes of the LORD, and my God shall be my strength.

⁵Ary ankehitriny, hoy Jehovah, Izay namorona Ahy hatrany am-bohoka ho Mpanompony, hampodiana ny Jakoba ho ao aminy indray sy hamoriana ny Isiraely ho ao aminy, (Fa mahazo voninahitra eo imason'i Jehovah Aho, Ary Andriamanitro no heriko),

⁶And he said, It is a light thing that thou shouldest be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved of Israel: I will also give thee for a light to the Gentiles, that thou mayest be my salvation unto the end of the earth.

⁶Eny, hoy Izy: Mbola zavatra kely foana, raha tonga Mpanompoko hanandratra ny firenen'i Jakoba Hianao sy hampody ny Isiraely sisa voaro; Fa homeko ho fanazavana ny jentilisa koa Hianao, mba ho famonjeko hatrany amin'ny faran'ny tany.

⁷Thus saith the LORD, the Redeemer of Israel, and his Holy One, to him whom man despiseth, to him whom the nation abhorreth, to a servant of rulers, Kings shall see and arise, princes also shall worship, because of the LORD that is faithful, and the Holy One of Israel, and he shall choose thee.

⁷Izao no lazain'i Jehovah, Mpanavotra ny Isiraely, dia ny Iray Masiny, Amin'Ilay hamavoin'ny olona sy halan'ny firenena ka tonga mpanompon'ny mpanapaka: Ny mpanjaka hahita ka hitsangana, ary ny mpanapaka koa, ka dia hiankohoka noho ny amin'i Jehovah, Izay mahatoky dia ny Iray Masin'ny Isiraely, izay efa nifidy Anao.

⁸Thus saith the LORD, In an acceptable time have I heard thee, and in a day of salvation have I helped thee: and I will preserve thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, to establish the earth, to cause to inherit the desolate heritages;

⁸Izao no lazain'i Jehovah: Tamin'ny taona fankasitrahana no nihainoako Anao. Ary tamin'ny andro famonjena no namonjeko Anao; Dia hiaro Anao Aho ka hanome Anao ho fanekena ho an'ny olona, mba hanangana ny tany indray sy hampandova ny lova izay efa rava

⁹That thou mayest say to the prisoners, Go forth; to them that are in darkness, Shew yourselves. They shall feed in the ways, and their pastures shall be in all high places.

⁹ka hanao amin'ny mpifatotra hoe: Mivoaha, Ary amin'izay ao amin'ny maizina hoe: Misehoa; hihinana eny an-dalana izy, ary na dia any an-tendrombohitra mangadihady aza dia hisy ahitra ho azy ihany; .

¹⁰They shall not hunger nor thirst; neither shall the heat nor sun smite them: for he that hath mercy on them shall lead them, even by the springs of water shall he guide them.

¹⁰Tsy ho noana na hangetaheta izy, ary tsy hamely azy ny hainandro migaingaina na ny masoandro; fa Izay mamindra fo aminy no hitarika azy, ary any amin'ny loharano miboiboika no hitondrany azy.

¹¹And I will make all my mountains a way, and my highways shall be exalted.

¹¹Hataoko lalana ny tendrombohitro rehetra, ary hasandratra ny lalambeko.

¹²Behold, these shall come from far: and, lo, these from the north and from the west; and these from the land of Sinim.

¹²Indreo, tonga avy lavitra ireto; ary, indreo, avy any avaratra sy andrefana ireto, ary avy any amin'ny tany Sinima ireto.

¹³Sing, O heavens; and be joyful, O earth; and break forth into singing, O mountains: for the LORD hath comforted his people, and will have mercy upon his afflicted.

¹³Mihobia, ry lanitra! Ary mifalia, ry tany! Ka velomy ny hoby, ry tendrombohitra! Fa Jehovah efa nampionona ny olony sy mamindra fo amin'ny olony mahantra.

¹⁴But Zion said, The LORD hath forsaken me, and my Lord hath forgotten me.

¹⁴Fa hoy Ziona'Jehovah efa nahafoy ahy, ary ny Tompoto efa nanadino ahy.

¹⁵Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee.

¹⁵Mety manadino ny zanany minono va ny vehivavy ka tsy hamindra fo amin'ny zanaka naloaky ny kibony? Eny, mety manadino ihany izy, Fa Izaho kosa tsy mba manadino anao.

¹⁶Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands; thy walls are continually before me.

¹⁶Indro, efa vitako tombo-kavatsa eo am-pelatanako ianao, ary ny mandanao dia eo anatrehako mandrakariva.

¹⁷Thy children shall make haste; thy destroyers and they that made thee waste shall go forth of thee.

¹⁷Tamy faingana ny zanakao; Ary izay nanimba sy nandrava anao dia miala aminao.

¹⁸Lift up thine eyes round about, and behold: all these gather themselves together, and come to thee. As I live, saith the LORD, thou shalt surely clothe thee with them all, as with an ornament, and bind them on thee, as a bride doeth.

¹⁸Atopazy manodidina ny masonao, ka mijere; ireo rehetra ireo dia mivory ka mankeo aminao; raha velona koa Aho, hoy Jehovah, Ireo rehetra ireo dia hihaingoanao tokoa tahaka ny firavaka sy hiravahanao tahaka ny fanaon'ny ampakarina.

¹⁹For thy waste and thy desolate places, and the land of thy destruction, shall even now be too narrow by reason of the inhabitants, and they that swallowed thee up shall be far away.

¹⁹Fa ny taninao rava sy ny fonenanao lao ary ny taninao simba dia tsy ho omby amin'izany noho ny habetsahan'ny mponina, ary ho lasa lavitra ireo nihinana anao.

²⁰The children which thou shalt have, after thou hast lost the other, shall say again in thine ears, The place is too strait for me: give place to me that I may dwell.

²⁰Ny zanakao izay efa lasa teo dia mbola hilaza eo an-tsofinao hoe: Tsy omby ahy loatra ity tany ity, Mikisaha kely mba hitoerako.

²¹Then shalt thou say in thine heart, Who hath begotten me these, seeing I have lost my children, and am desolate, a captive, and removing to and fro? and who hath brought up these? Behold, I was left alone; these, where had they been?

²¹Dia hanao anakampo ianao hoe: Iza no niteraka ireto ho ahy? Fa efa maty ny zanako, ary nitsaha-jaza aho. Babo aho sady noroahina, koa iza no namelona ireto? Indro, nilaozana ho irery aho, fa taiza kosa moa ireto?

²²Thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I will lift up mine hand to the Gentiles, and set up my standard to the people: and they shall bring thy sons in their arms, and thy daughters shall be carried upon their shoulders.

²²Izao no lazain'i Jehovah Tompo; Indro, hanandratra ny tanako amin'ny jentilisa Aho ary hanangana ny fanevako amin'ny firenena; dia hitrotro ny zanakao eo an-tratrany ireo, ary ny zanakaovavy ho entiny eny an-tsorony.

²³And kings shall be thy nursing fathers, and their queens thy nursing mothers: they shall bow down to thee with their face toward the earth, and lick up the dust of thy feet; and thou shalt know that I am the LORD: for they shall not be ashamed that wait for me.

²³Mpanjaka no ho rainao mpitaiza anao, ary zanakavavin'andriana no ho reninao mpampinono anao; hiankohoka amin'ny tany eo anatrehanao izy ka hilelaka ny vovoka amin'ny tongotrao; Dia ho fantatrao fa Izaho no Jehovah, ka tsy ho menatra izay miandry Ahy.

²⁴Shall the prey be taken from the mighty, or the lawful captive delivered?

²⁴Azo alaina eny amin'ny mahery va ny sambotra? Na ho afaka va ny babo marina?

²⁵But thus saith the LORD, Even the captives of the mighty shall be taken away, and the prey of the terrible shall be delivered: for I will contend with him that contendeth with thee, and I will save thy children.

²⁵Nefa izao no lazain'i Jehovah: Na dia ny sambotry ny mahery aza dia halaina ihany, ary ho afaka ny babon'ny mpandrombaka; fa Izaho no hiady amin'izay miady aminao, ary Izaho no hamonjy ny zanakao.Sady hampihinaniko ny nofon'ny tenany ihany izay mampahory anao, ary ho leon'ny ran'ny tenany ihany ireny, toy ny amin'ny ranom-boaloboka; dia ho fantatry ny nofo rehetra fa Izaho Jehovah no Mpamonjy anao, ary Ilay Maherin'i Jakoba no Mpanavotra anao.

²⁶And I will feed them that oppress thee with their own flesh; and they shall be drunken with their own blood, as with sweet wine: and all flesh shall know that I the LORD am thy Saviour and thy Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob.

²⁶Sady hampihinaniko ny nofon'ny tenany ihany izay mampahory anao, ary ho leon'ny ran'ny tenany ihany ireny, toy ny amin'ny ranom-boaloboka; dia ho fantatry ny nofo rehetra fa Izaho Jehovah no Mpamonjy anao, ary Ilay Maherin'i Jakoba no Mpanavotra anao.
