1How hath the Lord in his anger covered the daughter of Zion with a cloud! He hath cast down from the heavens unto the earth the beauty of Israel, and remembered not his footstool in the day of his anger.
1[Fitomaniana noho ny nanjo an'i Ziona sy ny Joda] Indrisy! Ziona zanakavavy dia saronan'ny Tompo rahona amin'ny fahatezerany; Nazerany avy tany an-danitra ho amin'ny tany ny reharehan'ny Isiraely, Ary tsy tsaroany ny fitoeran-tongony tamin'ny andro fahatezerany!
2The Lord hath swallowed up all the dwellings of Jacob, and hath not spared; he hath thrown down in his wrath the strongholds of the daughter of Judah: he hath brought [them] down to the ground; he hath profaned the kingdom and the princes thereof.
2Nolevonin'ny Tompo ny fonenan'i Jakoba rehetra, fa tsy niantrany; Noravany an-katezerana ny fiarovan'i Joda zanakavavy ka nazerany tamin'ny tany, tsy nohamasininy ny fanjakana sy ny mpanapaka,[Heb. Natelin']
3He hath cut off in fierce anger all the horn of Israel: he hath withdrawn his right hand from before the enemy; and he burned up Jacob like a flaming fire, devouring round about.
3Nokapainy tamin'ny fahatezerany mirehitra ny tandroky ny Isiraely rehetra; Nahemony teo anoloan'ny fahavalo ny tànany ankavanana; Ary nandoro an'i Jakoba Izy toy ny lelafo miredareda izay nandevona manodidina.
4He hath bent his bow like an enemy; he stood with his right hand as an adversary, and hath slain all that was pleasant to the eye: in the tent of the daughter of Zion, he hath poured out his fury like fire.
4Nanenjana ny tsipìkany toy ny fahavalo Izy, nijoro naninjitra ny tànany ankavanana toy ny rafilahy Izy ka nandripaka izay rehetra mahafinaritra ny maso; Ny fahatezerany dia naidiny toy ny afo tamin'ny lain'i Ziona zanakavavy.
5The Lord is become as an enemy: he hath swallowed up Israel; he hath swallowed up all her palaces; he hath destroyed his strongholds, and hath multiplied in the daughter of Judah mourning and lamentation.
5Ny Tompo dia tonga toy ny fahavalo ka nandevona ny Isiraely. Eny, nolevoniny ny lapany rehetra, sady noravany ny fiarovany; Ary nampitomboiny ny fisentoana sy ny fitarainan'i Joda zanakavavy.[Heb. nitelina][Heb. nateliny]
6And he hath violently cast down his enclosure as a garden; he hath destroyed his place of assembly: Jehovah hath caused set feast and sabbath to be forgotten in Zion, and hath despised in the indignation of his anger king and priest.
6Ary noravany an-keriny toy ny tanimboly ilay nofefena ho Azy, sady noravany ny trano fihaonany; Nataon'i Jehovah hadino tao Ziona ny fotoam-pivavahana sy ny Sabata, ka nolaviny tamin'ny fahatezerany mirehitra ny mpanjaka sy ny mpisorona.
7The Lord hath cast off his altar, he hath rejected his sanctuary; he hath given up into the hand of the enemy the walls of her palaces: they have made a noise in the house of Jehovah, as on the day of a set feast.
7Ny alitarany narian'ny Tompo, ny fitoerany masina nolaviny; Natolony ho eo an-tànan'ny fahavalo ny mandan'ny lapa ao Ziona; Nanandratra ny feony tao an-tranon'i Jehovah toy ny amin'ny fotoam-pivavahana ireny.
8Jehovah hath purposed to destroy the wall of the daughter of Zion: he hath stretched out the line, he hath not withdrawn his hand from destroying; and he hath made the rampart and the wall to lament: they languish together.
8Jehovah ninia handrava ny mandan'i Ziona zanakavavy; Nanenjana ny famolaina Izy ka tsy namonkina ny tanany tsy handrava; dia mampitomany ny fiarovany ivelany sy ny manda Izy, ka miara-dreraka ireo.[Heb. hitelina]
9Her gates are sunk into the ground; he hath destroyed and broken her bars. Her king and her princes are among the nations: the law is no [more]; her prophets also find no vision from Jehovah.
9Ny vavahadiny dia tototry ny tany, nosimbany sy notapatapahiny ny hidiny; Ny mpanjakany sy ny mpanapaka azy efa mby any amin'ny firenena; Tsy misy lalàna intsony, fa na ny mpaminaniny aza dia tsy mahita fahitana avy amin'i Jehovah.
10The elders of the daughter of Zion sit upon the ground, they keep silence; they have cast dust upon their heads, they have girded themselves with sackcloth: the virgins of Jerusalem hang down their head to the ground.
10Mipetraka amin'ny tany ny loholon'i Ziona zanakavavy ka mangina; Nasiany vovoka ny lohany, misikina lamba fisaonana izy; Ny virijina any Jerosalema nampitanondrika ny lohany ho amin'ny tany.
11Mine eyes are consumed with tears, my bowels are troubled; my liver is poured upon the earth, because of the ruin of the daughter of my people; because infant and suckling swoon in the streets of the city.
11Pahina ny masoko azon'ny ranomaso, mandevilevy ny foko; Naidina tamin'ny tany ny atiko noho ny fandringanana ny oloko zanakavavy, sy noho ny ankizy madinika sy ny zaza minono izay ana eny an-kalalahana ao an-tanàna.
12They say to their mothers, Where is corn and wine? when they swoon as the wounded in the streets of the city; when they pour out their soul into their mothers' bosom.
12Raha ana toy ny voatrobaka eny an-kalalahana ao an-tanana izy, na miala aina eo am-pofoan-dreniny, dia manontany an-dreniny hoe izy: aiza izay vary sy divay?
13What shall I take to witness for thee? what shall I liken unto thee, daughter of Jerusalem? What shall I equal to thee, that I may comfort thee, virgin daughter of Zion? For thy ruin is great as the sea: who will heal thee?
13Inona no hataoko vavolombelona ho anao? Inona no hanoharako anao, ry Jerosalema zanakavavy? Inona no hampitahaiko aminao mba hampiononako anao, ry Ziona zanakavavy virijina? Fa lehibe toy ny ranomasina ny faharatranao, iza no mahasitrana anao?
14Thy prophets have seen vanity and folly for thee; and they have not revealed thine iniquity, to turn away thy captivity; but have seen for thee burdens of falsehood and causes of expulsion.
14Ny mpaminaninao nahita lainga sy fahadalana ho anao; Ary tsy nampiseho ny helokao mba hiaro anao tsy ho babo; Fa nahita faminaniana lainga sy fampiviliana ho anao izy.[Na: fandroahana]
15All that pass by clap [their] hands at thee; they hiss and shake their head at the daughter of Jerusalem: Is this the city which they called, The perfection of beauty, The joy of the whole earth?
15Miteha-tanana anao izay rehetra mandalo eny an-dalana; Misitrisitra sy mihifikifi-doha amin'i Jerosalema zanakavavy izy ka manao hoe: Ity va ilay tanàna nataony hoe Tena fahatsaran-tarehy Fifalian'ny tany rehetra ?
16All thine enemies open their mouth against thee, they hiss and gnash the teeth: they say, We have swallowed [her] up; this is forsooth the day that we looked for: we have found, we have seen [it].
16Misanasana vava aminao ny fahavalonao rehetra; Misitrisitra sy mihidy vazana izy ka manao hoe: Efa nolevoninay! Ity tokoa no andro nandrasanay ka efa azonay sady hitanay.[Heb. natelinay]
17Jehovah hath done what he had devised; he hath fulfilled his word which he had commanded from the days of old: he hath thrown down, and hath not spared, and he hath caused the enemy to rejoice over thee; he hath set up the horn of thine adversaries.
17Jehovah efa nanao izay nosaininy ka nahatanteraka ny teniny izay nandidiany hatramin'ny andro fahagola; Nandrava Izy, fa tsy niantra; Ary nampifaly ny fahavalo taminao Izy sady nanandratra ny tandroky ny rafilahinao.
18Their heart cried unto the Lord. O wall of the daughter of Zion, let tears run down like a torrent day and night: give thyself no respite; let not the apple of thine eye rest.
18Ny fonao mitaraina amin'ny Tompo: Ry mandan'i Ziona zanakavavy! mandrotsaha ranomaso andro aman'alina toy ny riaka; Aza mangina, aoka tsy hitsahatra ny anakandriamasonao.[Heb. fony]
19Arise, cry out in the night, in the beginning of the watches; pour out thy heart like water before the face of the Lord: lift up thy hands toward him for the life of thy young children, who faint from hunger at the top of all the streets.
19Mitsangàna, miantsoantsoa amin'ny alina hatramin'ny filatsahan'ny fiambenana, Aidino tahaka ny rano eo anatrehan'ny Tompo ny fonao! Asandrato aminy ny tananao hifona ho an'ny ain'ny zanakao madinika, izay anan'ny hanoanana eny an-joron-dalambe rehetra eny.
20See, Jehovah, and consider to whom thou hast done this! Shall the women eat their fruit, the infants that they nursed? Shall priest and prophet be slain in the sanctuary of the Lord?
20Jehovah ô, jereo ka izahao ny amin'ny olona izay nanaovanao izany. Ny vehivavy va hihinana ny ateraky na kibony, dia ny zanany madinika trotroiny? Hovonoina ao amin'ny fitoera-masin'i Jehovah va ny mpisorona sy ny mpaminany ?
21The child and the old man lie on the ground in the streets; my virgins and my young men are fallen by the sword: thou hast slain [them] in the day of thine anger; thou hast killed, thou hast not spared.
21Miampatrampatra eny an-dalambe ny tanora sy ny antitra; Ny virijinako sy ny zatovoko dia lavon'ny sabatra, Novonoinao tamin'ny andro fahatezeranao izy, eny, naripakao, fa tsy niantranao.Nantsoinao ny fampangorohoroana manodidina ahy, toy ny amin'ny fotoam-pivavahana, ka dia tsy nisy sisa afa-nandositra tamin'ny andro fahatezeran'i Jehovah; Izay notrotroiko sy notezaiko aza dia lanin'ny fahavaloko.
22Thou hast called up, as on the day of a set feast, my terrors on every side; and in the day of Jehovah's anger there was none that escaped or remained: those that I have nursed and brought up hath mine enemy consumed.
22Nantsoinao ny fampangorohoroana manodidina ahy, toy ny amin'ny fotoam-pivavahana, ka dia tsy nisy sisa afa-nandositra tamin'ny andro fahatezeran'i Jehovah; Izay notrotroiko sy notezaiko aza dia lanin'ny fahavaloko.
