¹Ary ianao, ry zanak'olona, makà kapila tanimanga, ary apetraho eo anoloanao, dia manorata sarin-tanàna eo aminy, dia sarin'i Jerosalema;

¹`And thou, son of man, take to thee a brick, and thou hast put it before thee, and hast graven on it a city — Jerusalem,

²ary ataovy fahirano izy, ka manaova tilikambo hamelezana azy, ary manandrata tovon-tany manodidina azy; ary asio toby hamelezana azy, ary asio lohondry vy fandravana manodidina azy.

²and hast placed against it a siege, and builded against it a fortification, and poured out against it a mount, and placed against it camps, yea, set thou against it battering-rams round about.

³Ary makà lapoely, ka ataovy manda vy eo anelanelanao sy ny tanàna, dia banjino tsara io, ary aoka hatao fahirano, eny, aoka hataonao fahirano io. Famantarana ho amin'ny taranak'Isiraely izany.

³And thou, take to thee an iron pan, and thou hast made it a wall of iron between thee and the city; and thou hast prepared thy face against it, and it hath been in a siege, yea, thou hast laid siege against it. A sign it [is] to the house of Israel.

⁴Ary ataovy ambany mandry ny ilanao ankavia, ka ataovy eo aminy ny fahotan'ny taranak'Isiraely; koa araka ny isan'ny andro handrianao toy izany no hitondranao ny helony.

⁴`And thou, lie on thy left side, and thou hast placed the iniquity of the house of Israel on it; the number of the days that thou liest on it, thou bearest their iniquity.

⁵Fa Izaho dia manao fetr'andro ho anao mitovy amin'ny taonan'ny helony, dia sivi-folo amby telon-jato andro, ka ho entinao ny heloky ny taranak'Isiraely.

⁵And I — I have laid on thee the years of their iniquity, the number of days, three hundred and ninety days; and thou hast borne the iniquity of the house of Israel.

⁶Ary rehefa tapitrao ireo, dia ataovy ambany mandry kosa ny ilanao ankavanana, ary aoka hitondra ny heloky ny taranak'i Joda efa-polo andro ianao; ny indray andro no nataoko solon'ny herintaona ho anao.

⁶And thou hast completed these, and hast lain on thy right side, a second time, and hast borne the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days — a day for a year — a day for a year I have appointed to thee.

⁷Dia banjino tsara io fahirano an'i Jerosalema io, ary aoka hiseho sandry ianao ka haminany hamely azy.

⁷`And unto the siege of Jerusalem thou dost prepare thy face, and thine arm [is] uncovered, and thou hast prophesied concerning it.

⁸Ary, indro, hafatotro ianao ka tsy hahavadi-mandry ambara-pahatapitrao ny andron'ny fahiranonao.

⁸And lo, I have put on thee thick bands, and thou dost not turn from side to side till thy completing the days of thy siege.

⁹Ary mangalà vary tritika sy vary hordea sy tsaramaso sy voanemba sy ampemby sy spelta ianao, ary ataovy am-bilia iray ireo, ka anaovy mofo ho anao; araka ny isan'ny andro izay handrianao amin'ny ilanao, dia sivi-folo amby telon-jato andro, no hihinananao azy. [Heb. nangidy]

⁹`And thou, take to thee wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentiles, and millet, and spelt, and thou hast put them in one vessel, and made them to thee for bread; the number of the days that thou art lying on thy side — three hundred and ninety days — thou dost eat it.

¹⁰Ary an-danjany no hihinananao ny haninao, dia roa-polo sekely isan'andro; asio elanelany ny fihinanao azy.

¹⁰And thy food that thou dost eat [is] by weight, twenty shekels daily; from time to time thou dost eat it.

¹¹Ary rano afàtra no hosotroinao, dia ampahenin'ny hina; asio elanelany koa ny fisotronao azy.

¹¹`And water by measure thou dost drink, a sixth part of the hin; from time to time thou dost drink [it].

¹²Ary hatao toy ny mofo vary hordea no ho fihinanao azy, ary diky no hataonao kitay hanendasanao azy eo imasony.

¹²A barley-cake thou dost eat it, and it with dung — the filth of man — thou dost bake before their eyes.

¹³Ary hoy Jehovah: Toy izany no hihinanan'ny zanak'Isiraely ny mofony voaloto any amin'ny firenena izay handroahako azy.

¹³And Jehovah saith, `Thus do the sons of Israel eat their defiled bread among the nations whither I drive them.`

¹⁴Dia hoy izaho: Indrisy Jehovah Tompo ô, indro tsy voaloto ny fanahiko; fa hatry ny fony aho mbola tanora ka mandraka ankehitriny dia tsy mba nihinana izay fatin-javatra na izay noviraviraim-biby akory aho; ary tsy mbola nikasika ny vavako akory izay nofo fahavetavetana.

¹⁴And I say, `Ah, Lord Jehovah, lo, my soul is not defiled, and carcase, and torn thing, I have not eaten from my youth, even till now; nor come into my mouth hath abominable flesh.`

¹⁵Dia hoy Izy tamiko: Indro, tain'omby no omeko anao hisolo ny dity, ka izany no hataonao kitay hanendasanao ny mofonao.

¹⁵And He saith unto me, `See, I have given to thee bullock`s dung instead of man`s dung, and thou hast made thy bread by it.`

¹⁶Ary hoy koa Izy tamiko: Ry zanak'olona, indro, hotapahiko any Jerosalema ny mofo, tohan'aina, ka an-danjany amin'ny fanahiana no hihinanany mofo; ary rano afàtra no hosotroiny amin'ny fahatahorana.Ka dia ho mosare-mofo sy rano izy, ary samy ho raiki-tahotra sady hihalevona noho ny helony.

¹⁶And He saith unto me, `Son of man, lo, I am breaking the staff of bread in Jerusalem, and they have eaten bread by weight and with fear; and water by measure and with astonishment, they do drink;

¹⁷Ka dia ho mosare-mofo sy rano izy, ary samy ho raiki-tahotra sady hihalevona noho ny helony.

¹⁷so that they lack bread and water, and have been astonished one with another, and been consumed in their iniquity.
