¹And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,

¹[Ny nasain'Andriamanitra nataon'i Ezekiela hahalalan'ny Isiraely fa samy ho lasan-ko babo, na ny mpanjaka, na ny vahoaka] Ary tonga tamiko ny tenin'i Jehovah nanao hoe:

²Son of man, thou dwellest in the midst of a rebellious house, which have eyes to see, and see not, which have ears to hear, and hear not; for they are a rebellious house.

²Ry zanak'olona, ianao monina eto amin'ny taranaka maditra, izay mana-maso hahitana, nefa tsy mahita, ary manan-tsofina handrenesana, nefa tsy mandre fa taranaka maditra izy.

³And thou, son of man, prepare thee a captive's baggage, and go captive by day in their sight; and thou shalt go captive from thy place to another place in their sight. It may be they will consider, though they are a rebellious house.

³Koa ianao, ry zanak'olona, mifeheza entana handeha hifindra ho any amin'ny fahababoana, ka miaingà antoandro eo imasony; ary mialà eo imasony eo amin'izay itoeranao ho any amin'ny fitoerana hafa; angamba mba ho fantany fa taranaka maditra izy.

⁴And bring forth thy baggage by day in their sight, as a captive's baggage, and thou thyself, go forth at even in their sight as they that go forth into captivity.

⁴Dia havoakanao antoandro eo imasony ny entanao, toy ny entan'ny olona handeha ho any amin'ny fahababoana; fa ny tenanao kosa dia hivoaka hariva eo imasony toy ny fivoaky ny handeha ho any amin'ny fahababoana.

⁵Dig thou through the wall in their sight, and carry out thereby.

⁵Boroboahy eo imasony ny manda, ka ao no amoahy ny entanao.

⁶In their sight shalt thou bear [it] upon [thy] shoulder, and carry it forth in the dark; thou shalt cover thy face, and thou shalt not see the ground: for I have appointed thee for a sign unto the house of Israel.

⁶Ataovy an-tsoroka eo imasony no fitondranao azy, ka ento mivoaka, rehefa maizina dia maizina ny andro; sarony ny tavanao mba tsy hahitanao ny tany; fa efa nataoko ho famantarana mahagaga ho an'ny taranak'Isiraely ianao.

⁷And I did so as I was commanded: I brought forth my baggage by day, as a captive's baggage, and in the even I digged through the wall with my hand; I brought it forth in the dark, [and] bore it upon [my] shoulder, in their sight.

⁷Dia nanao araka izay efa nandidiana ahy aho, ka nentiko nivoaka antoandro ny entako, toy py entan'ny olona handeha ho any amin'ny fahababoana, ary nony hariva dia noboroboahako tamin'ny tanako ny manda, ka nony efa maizina dia maizina ny andro, dia nentiko nivoaka izany ka teny an-tsoroka no nitondrako azy teo imasony.

⁸And in the morning the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,

⁸Ary nony maraina dia tonga tamiko ny tenin'i Jehovah nanao hoe:

⁹Son of man, hath not the house of Israel, the rebellious house, said unto thee, What doest thou?

⁹Ry zanak'olona, moa ny taranak'Isiraely, izay taranaka maditra, tsy manontany aminao hoe va: Inona izao ataonao izao?

¹⁰Say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: This burden [concerneth] the prince in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel that are among them.

¹⁰Ambarao aminy hoe: Izao no lazain'i Jehovah Tompo: Ity faminaniana ny loza ity dia ho amin'ny mpanjakan'i Jerosalema sy ny taranak'Isiraely rehetra izay ao aminy.

¹¹Say, I am your sign: as I have done, so shall it be done unto them: they shall go into exile, into captivity.

¹¹Lazao hoe: Izaho dia famantarana mahagaga ho anareo, koa tahaka izay ataoko no hatao amin'ireo; hifindra sy ho lasan-ko babo izy.

¹²And the prince that is among them shall bear upon [his] shoulder in the dark, and shall go forth; they shall dig through the wall to carry out thereby; he shall cover his face, that he see not the land with [his] eyes.

¹²Ary ny mpanjaka, izay ao aminy dia hitondra ny entany eny an-tsorony nony efa maizina dia maizina ny andro ka hivoaka; hoboroboahan'ny olona ny manda hamoahana azy; hanarona ny tavany izy mba tsy ho hitan'ny masony ny tany.

¹³And I will spread my net upon him, and he shall be taken in my snare; and I will bring him to Babylon to the land of the Chaldeans; but he shall not see it, and there shall he die.

¹³Ary ny fandrika haratoko dia hovelariko aminy, ka ho voan'ny fandrika izy; dia ho entiko any Babylona any amin'ny tanin'ny Kaldeana izy, ary tsy hahita izany, nefa ho faty any ihany.

¹⁴And I will scatter toward every wind all that are about him to help him, and all his troops; and I will draw out the sword after them.

¹⁴Ary izay rehetra manodidina azy, dia ny mpanampy azy sy ny miaramilany rehetra, haeliko ho amin'ny rivotra rehetra, sady hanatsoaka sabatra ho enti-manenjika azy Aho.

¹⁵And they shall know that I [am] Jehovah when I shall scatter them among the nations and disperse them through the countries.

¹⁵Ary dia ho fantany fa Izaho no Jehovah, raha ahahako any amin'ny jentilisa sy ampieleziko any amin'ny tany samy hafa izy.

¹⁶But I will leave a few men of them from the sword, from the famine, and from the pestilence; that they may declare all their abominations among the nations whither they shall come; and they shall know that I [am] Jehovah.

¹⁶Nefa hamelako olom-bitsy ihany izy ho sisa tsy ho ringan'ny sabatra.sy ny mosary sy ny areti- mandringana, mba hisy hitantara ny fahavetavetany rehetra any amin'ny jentilisa izay alehany; ka dia ho fantany fa Izaho no Jehovah.

¹⁷And the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,

¹⁷Tonga tamiko ny tenin'i Jehovah nanao hoe:

¹⁸Son of man, eat thy bread with quaking, and drink thy water with trembling and with anxiety;

¹⁸Ry zanak'olona, hano amin-korohoro ny haninao, ary sotroy amin-kovitra sy amin'ahiahy ny ranonao.

¹⁹and say unto the people of the land, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah concerning the inhabitants of Jerusalem, in the land of Israel: They shall eat their bread with anxiety, and drink their water with astonishment, because her land shall be left desolate of all that is in it, for the violence of all them that dwell therein.

¹⁹Ary lazao amin'ny vahoaka hoe Izao no lazain'i Jehovah Tompo ny amin'ny mponina ao Jerosalema, ao amin'ny tanin'ny Isiraely: Amin'ahiahy no hihinanany ny haniny, ary amim-pahatalanjonana no hisotroany ny ranony, mba ho foana mihitsy ny tany, ka tsy hisy na inona na inona ao, noho ny fandozan'izay rehetra monina ao aminy.

²⁰And the cities that are inhabited shall be laid waste, and the land shall be a desolation; and ye shall know that I [am] Jehovah.

²⁰Dia ho rava ny tanàna onenana, ary ho lao ny tany; ka dia ho fantatrareo fa Izaho no Jehovah.

²¹And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,

²¹Ary tonga tamiko ny tenin'i Jehovah nanao hoe:

²²Son of man, what is that proverb which ye have in the land of Israel, saying, The days shall be prolonged, and every vision faileth?

²²Ry zanak'olona, ahoana moa, izao fitenenana ataonareo ao amin'ny tanin'ny Isiraely izao hoe: Mihaela ny andro, ary tonga tsinontsinona ny fahitana rehetra?

²³Tell them therefore, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: I will make this proverb to cease, and they shall no more use it as a proverb in Israel; but say unto them, The days are at hand, and the accomplishment of every vision.

²³Koa lazao aminy hoe: Izao no lazain'i Jehovah Tompo: Hatsahatro izany fitenenana izany ka tsy hatao fiteny ao amin'ny Isiraely intsony; fa lazao aminy kosa hoe: Akaiky ny andro sy ny tenin'ny fahitana rehetra.

²⁴For there shall be no more any vain vision nor flattering divination in the midst of the house of Israel.

²⁴Fa tsy hisy fahitana foana intsony na faminaniana mandrobo ao amin'ny taranak'Isiraely.

²⁵For I [am] Jehovah; I will speak, and the word that I shall speak shall be performed, it shall be no more deferred. For in your days, O rebellious house, will I speak the word and will perform it, saith the Lord Jehovah.

²⁵Fa Izaho no Jehovah; hiteny Aho, ary ny teny lazaiko dia ho tò tokoa; tsy hajanona ela intsony izany; fa ho amin'ny andronareo, ry taranaka maditra, no hilazako ny teny sy hanatanterahako azy, hoy Jehovah Tompo.

²⁶And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,

²⁶Ary tonga tamiko ny tenin'i Jehovah nanao hoe:

²⁷Son of man, behold, they of the house of Israel say, The vision that he seeth is for many days, and he prophesieth of times that are far off.

²⁷Ry zanak'olona, indro, ny taranak'Isiraely manao hoe: Mbola ho ela izany fahitana hitany izany, ary ny amin'ny fotoana mbola lavitra no vinaniny.Koa lazao aminy hoe: Izao no lazain'i Jehovah Tompo: Tsy hisy hajanona ela intsony ny teniko; fa ny teny izay lazaiko dia hotanterahiko, hoy Jehovah Tompo.

²⁸Therefore say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: There shall none of my words be deferred any more, but the word that I have spoken shall be done, saith the Lord Jehovah.

²⁸Koa lazao aminy hoe: Izao no lazain'i Jehovah Tompo: Tsy hisy hajanona ela intsony ny teniko; fa ny teny izay lazaiko dia hotanterahiko, hoy Jehovah Tompo.
