¹[Ny hanjo ny Isiraely noho ny tsi-fetezany hibebaka] Mihainoa izao teny izao, ianareo vantotr'ombivavin'i Basana, izay eny an-tendrombohitr'i Samaria, dia ianareo izay mampahory ny mahantra sy manorotoro ny malahelo ary manao amin'ny vadinareo hoe: Mitondrà hosotrointsika. [Na: ny tomponareo: Heb. tompony, na vadiny]

¹Hear this word, ye kine of Bashan, Who [are] in the mountain of Samaria, Who are oppressing the poor, Who are bruising the needy, Who are saying to their lords: `Bring in, and we do drink.`

²Jehovah Tompo efa nianiana tamin'ny fahamasinany hoe: Indro, ho avy aminareo ny andro hitarihany anareo amin'ny farango sy izay sisa aminareo amin'ny fintana.

²Sworn hath the Lord Jehovah by His holiness, That lo, days are coming upon you, And he hath taken you away with hooks, And your posterity with fish-hooks.

³Ary avy eo amin'ny banga no hivoahanareo, samy amin'izay hitsiny avy; Ary horoahina ho any Harmona ianareo, hoy Jehovah.[Na: an-tranobe][Na: ary harianareo ny fahefana (?)]

³And [by] breaches ye go forth, A woman [at that] over-against her, And ye have cast down the high place, An affirmation of Jehovah.

⁴Mankanesa any Betela, ka manotà, ary any Gilgala, ka manotà fatratra; Ento isa-maraina ny fanatitrareo alatsa-drà ary isan-kateloana ny fahafolon-karenareo;

⁴Enter ye Beth-El, and transgress, At Gilgal multiply transgression, And bring in every morning your sacrifices, Every third year your tithes.

⁵Mandoroa zavatra misy masirasira ho fanati-pisaorana, ary miantsoa fanati-tsitrapo, eny, ambarao izany! Satria ny toy izany no sitrakareo, ry Zanak'Isiraely, hoy Jehovah Tompo.

⁵And perfume with leaven a thank-offering, And proclaim willing gifts, sound ye! For so ye have loved, O sons of Israel, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.

⁶Fa Izaho dia efa nanome anareo ny mahamavovava tao an-tanànanareo rehetra, sy ny tsi-fahampian-kanina tamin'ny fonenanareo rehetra; Nefa tsy niverina tamiko ihany ianareo, hoy Jehovah.

⁶And I also — I have given to you cleanness of teeth in all your cities, And lack of bread in all your places, And ye have not turned back unto Me, an affirmation of Jehovah.

⁷Ary Izaho koa efa nampihantona ny orana tsy ho aminareo, raha mbola telo volana sisa tsy ho fararano, ka tamin'ny tanàna iray no nampilatsahako orana, ary tamin'ny tanàna iray kosa tsy mba nampilatsahako azy; Ny saha iray nilatsahan'ny orana. Ary ny saha iray kosa tsy mba nilatsahany ka maina.

⁷And I also — I have withheld from you the rain. While yet three months to harvest, And I have sent rain on one city, And on another city I do not send rain, One portion is rained on, And the portion on which it raineth not withereth.

⁸Dia nivembena ny tanàna roa aman-telo nitady rano tany amin'ny tanàna iray, kanjo tsy afa-ketaheta izy; Nefa tsy niverina tamiko ihany ianareo, hoy Jehovah.

⁸And wandered have two or three cities, Unto the same city to drink water, And they are not satisfied, And ye have not turned back unto Me, An affirmation of Jehovah.

⁹Efa nasiako tamin'ny vary main'ny rivotra sy maty fotsy ianareo; Ny habetsahan'ny tanimbolinareo sy ny tanim-boalobokareo sy ny aviavinareo sy ny hazo olivanareo dia nohanin'ny valala; Nefa tsy niverina tamiko ihany ianareo, hoy Jehovah. [Heb. mpikiky]

⁹I have smitten you with blasting and with mildew, The abundance of your gardens and of your vineyards, And of your figs, and of your olives, Eat doth the palmer-worm, And ye have not turned back unto Me, An affirmation of Jehovah.

¹⁰Efa naterako areti-mandringana tahaka ny any Egypta ianareo; Novonoiko sabatra ny zatovonareo sady nobaboina koa ny soavalinareo; Ary nampakariko ho eo am-bavoronareo ny hamaimboan'ny tobinareo; Nefa tsy niverina tamiko ihany ianareo, hoy Jehovah.

¹⁰I have sent among you pestilence by the way of Egypt, I have slain by sword your choice ones, With your captive horses, And I cause the stink of your camps to come up — even into your nostrils, And ye have not turned back unto Me, An affirmation of Jehovah.

¹¹Efa nisy noravako teo aminareo tahaka ny nandravan'Andriamanitra an'i Sodoma sy Gomora, ka efa tahaka ny forohana nosarihana tamin'ny afo ianareo; Nefa tsy niverina tamiko ihany ianareo, hoy Jehovah.

¹¹I have overturned among you, Like the overturn by God of Sodom and Gomorrah, And ye are as a brand delivered from a burning, And ye have not turned back unto Me, An affirmation of Jehovah.

¹²Koa izao no hataoko aminao, sy Isiraely, satria hanao izany aminao Aho, dia miomàna hihaona amin'Andriamanitrao, ry Isiraely ô.Fa indro Ilay mamorona ny tendrombohitra sy manao na rivotra ary mampahafantatra ny olombelona izay heviny, dia Ilay mahatonga ny maraina ho aizina ary mandia ny fitoerana avo amin'ny tany: Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny maro, no anarany.

¹²Therefore, thus I do to thee, O Israel, at last, Because this I do to thee, Prepare to meet thy God, O Israel.

¹³Fa indro Ilay mamorona ny tendrombohitra sy manao na rivotra ary mampahafantatra ny olombelona izay heviny, dia Ilay mahatonga ny maraina ho aizina ary mandia ny fitoerana avo amin'ny tany: Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny maro, no anarany.

¹³For, lo, the former of mountains, and creator of wind, And the declarer to man what [is] His thought, He is making dawn obscurity, And is treading on high places of earth, Jehovah, God of Hosts, [is] His name!
