¹Gather yourselves together, yes, gather together, you nation that has no shame,

¹[Anatra ho fampibebahana ny olona, dieny mbola tsy mihatra ny loza]Miangona, eny, mivoria ianareo Ry firenena tsy manan-kenatra, [Na: tsy manina]

²before the appointed time when the day passes as the chaff, before the fierce anger of Yahweh comes on you, before the day of Yahweh’s anger comes on you.

²Dieny tsy mbola mihatra ny didy (Mihelina toy ny akofa ny andro!), Dieny tsy mbola tonga aminareo ny fahatezerana mafin'i Jehovah, Eny, dieny tsy mbola tonga aminareo ny andro firehetan'ny fahatezeran'i Jehovah.

³Seek Yahweh, all you humble of the land, who have kept his ordinances. Seek righteousness. Seek humility. It may be that you will be hidden in the day of Yahweh’s anger.

³Mitadiava an'i Jehovah, ianareo mpandefitra rehetra amin'ny tany, Izay efa nanaraka ny fitsipiny: Tadiavo ny fahamarinana, Tadiavo ny fandeferana; Angamba ho voafina ianareo amin'ny andro fahatezeran'i Jehovah.

⁴For Gaza will be forsaken, and Ashkelon a desolation. They will drive out Ashdod at noonday, and Ekron will be rooted up.

⁴Fa hafoy Gaza, Ary ho lao Askelona; Horoahiny mitataovovonana Asdoda, Ary hofongorana Ekrona.

⁵Woe to the inhabitants of the sea coast, the nation of the Cherethites! The word of Yahweh is against you, Canaan, the land of the Philistines. I will destroy you, that there will be no inhabitant.

⁵Lozan'ny mponina any amoron-tsiraka, Dia ny firenen'ny Keretita! Mihatra aminareo ny tenin'i Jehovah, Ry Kanana, tanin'ny Filistina! Haringako tsy hisy mponina eo aminao,

⁶The sea coast will be pastures, with cottages for shepherds and folds for flocks.

⁶Ary ny any amoron-tsiraka dia ho tonga tany fiandrasana ondry, izay misy zohy fialofan'ny mpiandry ondry, Sy ho valan'ondry aman'osy, [Na: trano-bongon']

⁷The coast will be for the remnant of the house of Judah. They will find pasture. In the houses of Ashkelon, they will lie down in the evening, for Yahweh, their God The Hebrew word rendered “God” is “Elohim.” , will visit them, and restore them.

⁷Ary ho tanin'ny sisa amin'ny taranak'i Joda izany, Ka any no hiandrasany ondry; Ny tranon'i Askelona no handriany amin'ny hariva; Fa Jehovah Andriamaniny no hamangy azy Ka hampody azy avy amin'ny fahababoany.

⁸I have heard the reproach of Moab, and the insults of the children of Ammon, with which they have reproached my people, and magnified themselves against their border.

⁸Efa reko ny fandatsan'i Moaba Sy ny fanaratsian'ny taranak'i Amona, Izay nandatsany ny oloko Sy nireharehany teny amin'ny sisin-taniny.

⁹Therefore as I live, says Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, surely Moab will be as Sodom, and the children of Ammon as Gomorrah, a possession of nettles, and salt pits, and a perpetual desolation. The remnant of my people will plunder them, and the survivors of my nation will inherit them.

⁹Koa raha velona koa Aho, hoy Jehovah, Tompon'ny maro, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, Dia ho tahaka an'i Sodoma tokoa Moaba, Ary ny taranak'i Amona ho tahaka an'i Gomora, Dia ho alan'amiana sy lava-tsira ary tany lao mandrakizay; Ny sisa amin'ny oloko no hamabo azy, ary ny sisa amin'ny oloko no hahalasa azy.

¹⁰This they will have for their pride, because they have reproached and magnified themselves against the people of Yahweh of Armies.

¹⁰Izany no ho valin'ny avonavony, Satria nandatsa ny olon'i Jehovah, Tompon'ny maro, sy nirehareha taminy izy.

¹¹Yahweh will be awesome to them, for he will famish all the gods of the land. Men will worship him, everyone from his place, even all the shores of the nations.

¹¹Hahatsiravina azy Jehovah, Satria hahamosarena ireo andriamanitra rehetra ambonin'ny tany Izy, Mba hiankohofan'ny any amoron-tsiraky ny jentilisa rehetra eo anatrehan'i Jehovah, Samy any amin'ny fitoerany avy.

¹²You Cushites also, you will be killed by my sword.

¹²Hianareo Etiopiana koa, Ho voatrabaky ny sabatro ianareo. [Heb. izy]

¹³He will stretch out his hand against the north, destroy Assyria, and will make Nineveh a desolation, as dry as the wilderness.

¹³Ary haninjitra ny tànany hamely ny avaratra Izy Ka handringana an'i Asyria; Ary hahalao an'i Ninive ho karankaina tahaka ny efitra Izy.

¹⁴Herds will lie down in the midst of her, all the animals of the nations. Both the pelican and the porcupine will lodge in its capitals. Their calls will echo through the windows. Desolation will be in the thresholds, for he has laid bare the cedar beams.

¹⁴Ary hisy andiany handry ao aminy, Dia fivorian'ny karazam-biby samy hafa, Ny sama sy ny sokina hitoetra ao amin'ny kapitaliny; Feo mikiririoka no ho re ao am-baravarankely, Ary fandravana no ho eo an-tokonana, Fa hendahany ny rafitra sedera.Izany no tanàna niravoravo sady nandry fahizay, Izay nanao anakampo hoe: Izaho no izy, ary tsy misy hafa; Endrey! efa tonga lao izy, eny, fandrian'ny biby! Izay rehetra mandalo azy dia hisitrisitra sy hanondro tanana.

¹⁵This is the joyous city that lived carelessly, that said in her heart, “I am, and there is none besides me.” How she has become a desolation, a place for animals to lie down in! Everyone who passes by her will hiss, and shake their fists.

¹⁵Izany no tanàna niravoravo sady nandry fahizay, Izay nanao anakampo hoe: Izaho no izy, ary tsy misy hafa; Endrey! efa tonga lao izy, eny, fandrian'ny biby! Izay rehetra mandalo azy dia hisitrisitra sy hanondro tanana.
