1Injany! any an-tendrombohitra ny tongotry ny mitondra teny soa mahafaly Sady mitory fiadanana! Tandremo ny andro firavoravoanao, ry Joda, Efao ny voadinao; Fa tsy handeha hamaky eo aminao intsony ilay tena ratsy fanahy, Indray ripaka izy rehetra.
1Come up hath a scatterer to thy face, Keep the bulwark, watch the way, Strengthen the loins, strengthen power mightily.
2Misy mpanorotoro miakatra hamely anao Ambeno ny manda, Tazano ny lalana, Hatanjaho ny valahanao, Hetseho mafy ny herinao!
2For turned back hath Jehovah to the excellency of Jacob, As [to] the excellency of Israel, For emptied them out have emptiers, And their branches they have marred.
3Fa Jehovah efa mampody ny voninahitr'i Jakoba, Toy ny ampodiany ny voninahitr'Isiraely; Fa ny mpandroba efa nandroba azy Ary nanimba ny sampam-boalobony.[Na: miverina ho amin'ilay reharehany][Na: toy ny amin'ny reharehany]
3The shield of his mighty ones is become red, Men of might [are in] scarlet, With fiery torches [is] the chariot in a day of his preparation, And the firs have been caused to tremble.
4Nomenaina ny ampingan'ny lehilahy maheriny, Mitafy jaky ny miaramilany, Ny kalesiny dia misy vy mahery, mamirapiratra toy ny afo, amin'ny andro fiomanany, Ary antsodina ny lefona.
4In out-places shine do the chariots, They go to and fro in broad places, Their appearances [are] like torches, As lightnings they run.
5Ampiezahina eny an-dalambe ny kalesy Ka mifanaretsadretsaka eny an-kalalahana; Tahaka ny harendrina no fijery azy, Mitsoriaka tahaka ny helatra izy.
5He doth remember his honourable ones, They stumble in their goings, They hasten [to] its wall, and prepared is the covering.
6Tsaroany ny lehilahy malazany, Kanjo tafintohina eny am-pandehanana ireny; Mihazakazaka ho any amin'ny manda ireny, Kanjo efa voatsangana sahady ny hamelezana azy.
6Gates of the rivers have been opened, And the palace is dissolved.
7Vohana ny vavahadin-drenirano, Ary reraka ny lapa.[Heb: miempo]
7And it is established — she hath removed, She hath been brought up, And her handmaids are leading as the voice of doves, Tabering on their hearts.
8Izao no voatendry: ampitanjahina izy, dia lasan-ko babo, Ary ny ankizivavy mitoloko azy manao feom-boromailala Sady miteha-tratra.[Na: Hozaba dia nampitanjahina ka]
8And Nineveh [is] as a pool of waters, From of old it [is] — and they are fleeing! `Stand ye, stand;` and none is turning!
9Fa Ninive dia tahaka ny farihy hatrizay nisiany; Nefa handositra ihany ireny, Mijanòna, mijanòna e! Nefa tsy misy miherika.
9Seize ye silver, seize ye gold, And there is no end to the prepared things, [To] the abundance of all desirable vessels.
10Mamaboa volafotsy, Mamaboa volamena! Fa tsy hita lany ny rakitra soa, Dia ny habetsahan'ny fanaka mahafinaritra rehetra.
10She is empty, yea, emptiness and waste, And the heart hath melted, And the knees have smitten together, And great pain [is] in all loins, And the faces of all of them have gathered paleness.
11Indrisy! foana, eny, foana sady lao! Kivy ny fo, miady ny lohalika, Manaintaina ny valahany rehetra, Mivaloarika ny tarehiny rehetra.
11Where [is] the habitation of lionesses? And a feeding-place it [is] for young lions Where walked hath a lion, an old lion, A lion`s whelp, and there is none troubling.
12Aiza ilay lavaky ny liona sy firemben'ny liona tanora ? Ilay nandehanan'ny liona sy ny liom-bavy mbamin'ny zana-diona, Ka tsy nisy nanaitaitra azy,
12The lion is tearing parts [for] his whelps, And is strangling for his lionesses, And he doth fill [with] prey his holes, And his habitations [with] rapine.
13Dia ilay liona namotipotika izay ampy ho an'ny zanany Ary nanenda ho an'ny liombaviny Sady nameno haza ny lavany Sy toha ny fonenany.Indro, hamely anao Aho, hoy Jehovah, Tompon'ny maro, Holevoniko ho setroka ny kalesinao Ary hovonoiko sabatra ny liona tanoranao; Hofonganako amin'ny tany ny hazanao; Ka tsy ho re intsony ny feon'ny irakao.[Heb; kalesiny]
13Lo, I [am] against thee, An affirmation of Jehovah of Hosts, And I have burned in smoke its chariot, And thy young lions consume doth a sword, And I have cut off from the land thy prey, And not heard any more is the voice of thy messengers!
14Indro, hamely anao Aho, hoy Jehovah, Tompon'ny maro, Holevoniko ho setroka ny kalesinao Ary hovonoiko sabatra ny liona tanoranao; Hofonganako amin'ny tany ny hazanao; Ka tsy ho re intsony ny feon'ny irakao.[Heb; kalesiny]
