¹Hear ye this, O house of Jacob, Who are called by the name of Israel, And from the waters of Judah came out, Who are swearing by the name of Jehovah, And of the God of Israel make mention, Not in truth nor in righteousness.

¹[Fampahatsiarovana ny lasa, sy filazana ny ho avy, indrindra fa ny hanafahana ny Isiraely avy any Babylona] Mihainoa, ry taranak'i Jakoba, dia ianareo izay antsoina amin'ny anaran'Isiraely sy avy amin'ny loharanon'i Joda, ianareo izay mianiana amin'ny anaran'i Jehovah ary mankalaza ny anaran'Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, kanefa tsy araka ny marina, na araka ny hitsiny;

²For from the Holy City they have been called, And on the God of Israel been supported, Jehovah of Hosts [is] His name.

²Fa milaza ny tenany ho avy amin'ny tanana masina izy ka miankina amin'Andriamanitry ny Isiraely; Jehovah, Tompon'ny maro, no anarany.

³The former things from that time I declared, And from my mouth they have gone forth, And I proclaim them, Suddenly I have done, and it cometh.

³Ny zavatra taloha dia efa voalazako hatramin'ny fahiny, ary naloaky ny vavako izany sady nambarako; Tampoka no nanaovako izany, ary tonga izany.

⁴From my knowing that thou art obstinate, And a sinew of iron thy neck, And thy forehead brass,

⁴Satria fantatro fa maditra ianao, ka ozaby ny hatokao, ary varahina ny handrinao,

⁵And I declare to thee from that time, Before it cometh I have caused thee to hear, Lest thou say, `Mine idol hath done them, And my graven image, And my molten image did command them.

⁵Dia nambarako taminao hatramin'ny fahiny izany, eny, fony tsy mbola tonga aza izany, dia efa nambarako taminao rahateo, fandrao hataonao hoe: Ny sampiko no nanao izany, ary ny sarin-javatra voasokitra sy ny sarin-javatra anidina no nandidy izany.

⁶Thou hast heard, see the whole of it, And ye, do ye not declare? I have caused thee to hear new things from this time, And things reserved that ye knew not.

⁶Efa renao, ka dia jereo izany rehetra izany, moa ianareo tsy hanambara izany va? Mampandre anao zava-baovao kosa Aho hatramin'izao, dia zavatra miafina izay tsy fantatrao.

⁷Now they have been produced and not from that time, Yea, before the day, and thou hast not heard them, Lest thou say, `Lo, I have known them.`

⁷Vao izao no namoronana azy, fa tsy hatramin'ny fahiny, ary tsy mbola nandre azy ianao talohan'ny andro anio, fandrao ianao hanao hoe: Indro, ny efa fantatro ihany izany.

⁸Yea, thou hast not heard, Yea, thou hast not known, Yea, from that time not opened hath thine ear, For I have known thou dealest treacherously, And `Transgressor from the belly,` One is crying to thee.

⁸Fa tsy nandre na nahalala ianao; Eny, hatramin'ny fahiny aza no tsy mbola nisokatra ny sofinao; fa fantatro fa tena mpivadika ianao sady natao hoe mpiodina hatrany an-kibo.

⁹For My name`s sake I defer Mine anger, And My praise I restrain for thee, So as not to cut thee off.

⁹Noho ny anarako dia ononiko ny fahatezerako, ary mba hiderana ahy dia manindry fo aminao Aho, mba tsy hamongorana anao.

¹⁰Lo, I have refined thee, and not with silver, I have chosen thee in a furnace of affliction.

¹⁰Indro, nodioviko ianao, nefa tsy toy ny volafotsy; Efa nizaha toetra anao tao amin'ny memy fahoriana Aho.

¹¹For My sake, for Mine own sake, I do [it], For how is it polluted? And Mine honour to another I give not.

¹¹Noho ny tenako, eny, noho ny tenako ihany no anaovako izany; indrisy, lotoina ny anarako! Ary ny voninahitro tsy homeko ny hafa.

¹²Hearken to me, O Jacob, and Israel, My called one, I [am] He, I [am] first, and I [am] last;

¹²Mihainoa Ahy, ry Jakoba, sy y Isiraely izay nantsoiko: Tsy miova Aho; Izaho no voalohany, ary Izaho koa no farany.

¹³Also, My hand hath founded earth, And My right hand stretched out the heavens, I am calling unto them, they stand together.

¹³Eny, ny tanako no nanorina ny fanambanin'ny tany, ary ny tanako ankavanana no namelatra ny lanitra; Raha antsoiko ireo, dia indray miseho avokoa.

¹⁴Be gathered all of you, and hear, Who among them did declare these things? Jehovah hath loved him, He doth His pleasure on Babylon, And His arm [is on] the Chaldeans.

¹⁴Mivoria ianareo rehetra, ka mihainoa: Iza moa amin'ireny no mba efa nanambara izany; ilay tian'i Jehovah no hahefa ny sitrapony amin'i Babylona ary ny sandriny ho amin'ny Kaldeana.

¹⁵I — I have spoken, yea, I have called him, I have brought him in, And he hath made prosperous his way.

¹⁵Izaho dia Izaho ihany no miteny sady miantso azy, nitondra azy Aho, ka hambinina ny lalany.

¹⁶Come ye near unto me, hear this, Not from the beginning in secret spake I, From the time of its being, there [am] I, And now the Lord Jehovah hath sent me, and His Spirit.

¹⁶Manatona Ahy ianareo, ka mihainoa; hatramin'ny taloha no efa tsy nitenenako tamin'ny mangingina, hatry ny fony vao nisian'ireo dia teo Aho, ary ankehitriny Jehovah Tompo no naniraka Ahy sy ny Fanahiny.

¹⁷Thus said Jehovah, thy redeemer, The Holy One of Israel, `I [am] Jehovah thy God, teaching thee to profit, Causing thee to tread in the way thou goest.

¹⁷Izao no lazain'i Jehovah, Mpanavotra anao, dia ny Iray Masin'ny Isiraely: Izaho, Jehovah Andriamanitrao, no nampianatra anao hahita soa sady mitarika anao amin'ny lalana tokony halehanao.

¹⁸O that thou hadst attended to My commands, Then as a river is thy peace, And thy righteousness as billows of the sea,

¹⁸Toy izay anie ianao mba nihaino ny didiko! Dia ho tonga tahaka ny ony ny fiadananao, ary ho tahaka ny onjan-dranomasina ny fahamarinanao, [Na: Enga anie ka hihaino ny didiko ianao]

¹⁹And as sand is thy seed, And the offspring of thy bowels as its gravel, Not cut off nor destroyed his name before Me.

¹⁹Ary ho tahaka ny fasika ny taranakao, ary ny aloaky ny kibonao ho tahaka ny sombim-pasika; Ny anarany tsy ho tapaka na ho foana eo anatrehako.

²⁰Go out from Babylon, flee from the Chaldeans, With a voice of singing declare, Cause ye this to be heard, Bring it forth unto the end of the earth, Say, Redeemed hath Jehovah His servant Jacob.

²⁰Mivoaha hiala any Babylona; miezaha avy any amin'ny Kaldeana; torio amin'ny feo mahafaly, ary ambarao, ka aelezo hatrany amin'ny faran'ny tany, lazao hoe: Jehovah efa nanavotra an'i Jakoba mpanompony.

²¹And they have not thirsted in waste places, He hath caused them to go on, Waters from a rock he hath caused to flow to them, Yea, he cleaveth a rock, and flow do waters.

²¹Ary tsy nangetaheta ireo tamin'ny nitondrany azy tany an-efitra; Nampiboiboika rano ho azy avy tamin'ny vatolampy Izy, Eny, nampitresaka ny vatolampy Izy, ka dia nigororoana ny rano.Tsy misy fiadanana ho an'ny ratsy fanahy, hoy Jehovah.

²²There is no peace, said Jehovah, to the wicked!

²²Tsy misy fiadanana ho an'ny ratsy fanahy, hoy Jehovah.
