¹Woe to her who is rebellious and polluted, the oppressing city!

¹Lozan'ny tanàna miodina sady voaloto, Dia ilay mampahory!

²She didn’t obey the voice. She didn’t receive correction. She didn’t trust in Yahweh. She didn’t draw near to her God.

²Tsy nihaino ny feo izy, Na nino anatra; Jehovah tsy nitokiany, Andriamaniny tsy nohatoniny.

³Her princes in the midst of her are roaring lions. Her judges are evening wolves. They leave nothing until the next day.

³Liona mierona ao aminy ireo lehibeny; Amboadia hariva ny mpitsarany Ka tsy mamela ho tra-maraina. [Lopa] [Na: tsy mamela taolana]

⁴Her prophets are arrogant and treacherous people. Her priests have profaned the sanctuary. They have done violence to the law.

⁴Vavana sady mpamitaka ny mpaminaniny; Mandoto izay masina ny mpisorony, Eny, mamadika ny lalàna izy.

⁵Yahweh, in the midst of her, is righteous. He will do no wrong. Every morning he brings his justice to light. He doesn’t fail, but the unjust know no shame.

⁵Jehovah no marina ao afovoany, Tsy manao izay tsy marina Izy; Isa-maraina isa-maraina no amoahany ny fitsarany ho amin'ny mazava, ka tsy diso izany. Fa ny tsy marina tsy mba mahalala henatra.

⁶I have cut off nations. Their battlements are desolate. I have made their streets waste, so that no one passes by. Their cities are destroyed, so that there is no man, so that there is no inhabitant.

⁶Efa nahafongana firenena Aho, Rava ny tilikambo eny amin'ny zorony; Nosimbako ny lalany tsy hisy mpandeha; Rava ny tanànany, ka tsy misy olona, Eny, tsy misy mponina.

⁷I said, “Just fear me. Receive correction, so that her dwelling won’t be cut off, according to all that I have appointed concerning her.” But they rose early and corrupted all their doings.

⁷Hoy Izaho: Hatahotra Ahy tokoa ianao ka hino anatra, Dia tsy ho rava ny fonenanao, Araka izay rehetra voatendriko hamelezana anao; Kanefa nifoha maraina koa izy ka nanao Izay ratsy rehetra.[Heb. fonenany] [Heb. azy]

⁸“Therefore wait for me,” says Yahweh, “until the day that I rise up to the prey, for my determination is to gather the nations, that I may assemble the kingdoms, to pour on them my indignation, even all my fierce anger, for all the earth will be devoured with the fire of my jealousy.

⁸Koa miandrasa Ahy ianareo, hoy Jehovah, Ambara-pihavin'ny andro hitsanganako haka babo; Fa izao no kasaiko hatao: Hamory firenena sy hanangona fanjakana Aho, Hanidinako ny fahatezerako amin'ireo, dia ny firehetan'ny fahatezerako rehetra, Ka ho levon'ny afon'ny fahasaro-piaroko ny tany rehetra.

⁹For then I will purify the lips of the peoples, that they may all call on the name of Yahweh, to serve him shoulder to shoulder.

⁹[Ny amin'ny hibebahan'ny jentilisa, sy ny hanomezam-boninahitra ny Isiraely] Fa amin'izany dia hovako ho madio ny molotry ny firenena, Hiantsoan'izy rehetra ny anaran'i Jehovah, hanompoany Azy amin'ny firaisan-kina. [Heb. soroka iray]

¹⁰From beyond the rivers of Cush, my worshipers, even the daughter of my dispersed people, will bring my offering.

¹⁰Avy any an-dafin'ny onin'i Etiopia no hitondrana ny mpivavaka amiko, Dia ny zanakavavin'izay naeliko, ho fanatitra ho Ahy. [Na: hitondran'ny mpivavaka amiko ... ny fanatitra ho ahy]

¹¹In that day you will not be disappointed for all your doings, in which you have transgressed against me; for then I will take away out of the midst of you your proudly exulting ones, and you will no more be haughty in my holy mountain.

¹¹Amin'izany andro izany dia tsy ho menatra ianao tamin'izay nataonao rehetra, Izay nanotanao tamiko; Ka dia hesoriko aminao ireo mibitaka amim-pireharehana, Ary tsy hiavonavona eo an-tendrombohitro masina intsony ianao.

¹²But I will leave in the midst of you an afflicted and poor people, and they will take refuge in the name of Yahweh.

¹²Nefa hamelako olona ory sy malahelo ihany ao aminao, Ary ny anaran'i Jehovah no hialofany,

¹³The remnant of Israel will not do iniquity, nor speak lies, neither will a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth, for they will feed and lie down, and no one will make them afraid.”

¹³Ny sisa amin'ny Isiraely dia tsy hanao meloka na handainga, Ary tsy hisy lela mamitaka eo am-bavany; Fa hihinana sy handry izy, ka tsy hisy hanaitaitra azy.

¹⁴Sing, daughter of Zion! Shout, Israel! Be glad and rejoice with all your heart, daughter of Jerusalem.

¹⁴Mihobia, ry Ziona zanakavavy; Manaova feo fifaliana, ry Isiraely; Mifalia sy miravoravoa amin'ny fonao rehetra, ry Jerosalema zanakavavy.

¹⁵Yahweh has taken away your judgments. He has thrown out your enemy. The King of Israel, Yahweh, is in the midst of you. You will not be afraid of evil any more.

¹⁵Jehovah efa nampitsahatra ny fitsarana anao ka nandroaka ny fahavalonao; Jehovah, Mpanjakan'ny Isiraely, no ao aminao; Tsy hahita loza intsony ianao.

¹⁶In that day, it will be said to Jerusalem, “Don’t be afraid, Zion. Don’t let your hands be weak.”

¹⁶Amin'izany andro izany dia holazaina amin'i Jerosalema hoe: Aza matahotra Ary aza miraviravy tanana, ry Ziona.

¹⁷Yahweh, your God, is in the midst of you, a mighty one who will save. He will rejoice over you with joy. He will calm you in his love. He will rejoice over you with singing.

¹⁷Jehovah Andriamanitrao no ao aminao, Mahery Izy ka hamonjy; Hiravoravo anao amin'ny fifaliana Izy; Ho sondriana amin'ny fitiavany Izy; Hifaly anao amin'ny fihobiana Izy. [Heb. hangina]

¹⁸I will remove those who grieve about the appointed feasts from you. They are a burden and a reproach to you.

¹⁸Hangoniko izay manina ny fotoam-pivavahana; Avy aminao ihany ireny, Ary itambesaran'ny latsa izy. [Na: efa lavitra] [Na: Ary mitambesatra aminy ny fandatsana anao (Heb. fandatsana azy); na: Avy taminao izay itambesaran'ny latsa ireny]

¹⁹Behold, at that time I will deal with all those who afflict you, and I will save those who are lame, and gather those who were driven away. I will give them praise and honor, whose shame has been in all the earth.

¹⁹Indro, hasiako amin'Izany andro izany izay rehetra nampahory anao; Hovonjeko ny mandringa, ary hovoriko ny noroahina, Eny, hataoko ho fiderana sy ho anarana ireny izay efa nitondra henatra tany amin'ny tany rehetra. [Na: any amin'ny tany rehetra izay efa nitondrany henatra]Amin'izany andro izany no hitondrako anareo miditra, Eny, amin'izany andro izany no hanangonako anareo; Fa hataoko ho anarana sy ho fiderana any amin'ny firenena rehetra amin'ny tany ianareo, Raha hampodiko avy amin'ny fahababoana ianareo, ka ho hitan'ny masonareo izany, hoy Jehovah.

²⁰At that time will I bring you in, and at that time will I gather you; for I will give you honor and praise among all the peoples of the earth, when I restore your fortunes before your eyes, says Yahweh.

²⁰Amin'izany andro izany no hitondrako anareo miditra, Eny, amin'izany andro izany no hanangonako anareo; Fa hataoko ho anarana sy ho fiderana any amin'ny firenena rehetra amin'ny tany ianareo, Raha hampodiko avy amin'ny fahababoana ianareo, ka ho hitan'ny masonareo izany, hoy Jehovah.
