Joel 1

Ny tenin'i Jehovah, izay tonga tamin'i Joela, zanak'i Petoela.

The word of the LORD that came to Joel the son of Pethuel.

Henoy izao, ry anti-panahy! Ary mandrenesa, ianareo mponina rehetra amin'ny tany! Moa mba efa nisy tamin'ny andronareo na tamin'ny andron'ny razanareo, va izao?

Hear this, ye old men, and give ear, all ye inhabitants of the land. Hath this been in your days, or even in the days of your fathers?

Lazao amin'ny zanakareo izao, ary aoka ny zanakareo hilaza amin'ny zanany kosa, ary ny zanak'ireo kosa indray amin'ny taranaka mandimby azy.

Tell ye your children of it, and let your children tell their children, and their children another generation.

Izay sisan'ny kijeja dia nohanin'ny koraika; Ary izay sisan'ny koraika dia nohanin'ny valalavao: Ary izay sisan'ny valalavao dia nohanin'ny sompanga.

That which the palmerworm hath left hath the locust eaten; and that which the locust hath left hath the cankerworm eaten; and that which the cankerworm hath left hath the caterpiller eaten.

Mifohaza, ianareo mpimamo, ka mitomania, eny, midradradradrà, ianareo mpisotro divay rehetra, noho ny ranom-boaloboka, satria tapaka tsy ho amin'ny vavanareo izany.

Awake, ye drunkards, and weep; and howl, all ye drinkers of wine, because of the new wine; for it is cut off from your mouth.

Fa misy firenena mahery sady tsy hita isa miakatra hamely ny taniko; Ny nifiny dia nifin-diona, ary ny vazany dia vazan'ny liom-bavy.

For a nation is come up upon my land, strong, and without number, whose teeth are the teeth of a lion, and he hath the cheek teeth of a great lion.

Nataony simba tokoa ny voaloboko, ary notapatapahiny ny aviaviko; Nataony nakiky tokoa ireny ka nariany, eny, tonga fotsy ny rantsany.

He hath laid my vine waste, and barked my fig tree: he hath made it clean bare, and cast it away; the branches thereof are made white.

Midradradradrà toy ny virijina misikindamba fisaonana noho ny amin'ny vadin'ny fahatanorany.

Lament like a virgin girded with sackcloth for the husband of her youth.

Efa tapaka tsy ho ao amin'ny tranon'i Jehovah ny fanatitra hohanina sy ny fanatitra aidina; Mitomany ny mpisorona, mpanao fanompoam-pivavahana ho an'i Jehovah.

The meat offering and the drink offering is cut off from the house of the LORD; the priests, the LORD'S ministers, mourn.

Mariry ny saha, misaona ny tany fambolena; Fa simba ny vary, ritra ny ranom-boaloboka, mihena ny diloilo.

The field is wasted, the land mourneth; for the corn is wasted: the new wine is dried up, the oil languisheth.

Aoka ho menatra ianareo mpiasa tany; midradradradrà, ianareo mpamboatra tanim-boaloboka, noho ny vary tritika sy ny vary hordea; Fa majifa ny vokatry ny saha;

Be ye ashamed, O ye husbandmen; howl, O ye vinedressers, for the wheat and for the barley; because the harvest of the field is perished.

Maina ny voaloboka, malazo ny aviavy, ary malazo koa ny ampongaben-danitra sy ny rofia ary ny poma aza, dia ny hazo rehetra any an-tsaha; Eny, malazo ny fifalian'ny zanak'olombelona.

The vine is dried up, and the fig tree languisheth; the pomegranate tree, the palm tree also, and the apple tree, even all the trees of the field, are withered: because joy is withered away from the sons of men.

Misikina sy mitomania, ianareo mpisorona; midradradradrà, ianareo mpanao fanompoam-pivavahana eo amin'ny alitara; Andeha mandry amin'ny lamba fisaonana mandritra ny alina, ianareo mpanao fanompoam-pivavahana ho an'Andriamanitro, fa tapaka tsy ho ao amin'ny tranon'Andriamanitra ny fanatitra hohanina sy ny fanatitra aidina.

Gird yourselves, and lament, ye priests: howl, ye ministers of the altar: come, lie all night in sackcloth, ye ministers of my God: for the meat offering and the drink offering is withholden from the house of your God.

Manamasina andro fifadian-kanina, miantsoa fivoriana masina, angòny ny loholona sy ny mponina rehetra amin'ny tany ho ao an-tranon'i Jehovah Andriamanitrareo, koa andeha mitaraina amin'i Jehovah.

Sanctify ye a fast, call a solemn assembly, gather the elders and all the inhabitants of the land into the house of the LORD your God, and cry unto the LORD,

Indrisy ny andro! Fa efa antomotra ny andron'i Jehovah, ka tahaka ny loza tsy toha avy amin'ny Tsitoha no fihaviny.

Alas for the day! for the day of the LORD is at hand, and as a destruction from the Almighty shall it come.

Moa tsy efa tapaka teo imasontsika va ny hanina, eny, ny fifaliana sy ny faharavoravoana tsy ho ao an-tranon'Andriamanitsika?

Is not the meat cut off before our eyes, yea, joy and gladness from the house of our God?

Matimaso ao ambanin'ny baingan-tany ny vary nafafy, foana ny sompitra, mirodana ny trano fitehirizam-bary; Fa nalazo ny vary.

The seed is rotten under their clods, the garners are laid desolate, the barns are broken down; for the corn is withered.

Indrisy, ny fitoreon'ny biby! Very hevitra ny omby andiany, satria tsy misy ahitra ho azy; Eny, na dia ny andian'ny ondry aman'osy aza dia mijaly noho ny heloka.

How do the beasts groan! the herds of cattle are perplexed, because they have no pasture; yea, the flocks of sheep are made desolate.

Jehovah ô, Hianao no itarainako, fa efa levon'ny afo ny kijana any an-efitra, ary nisy lelafo efa nandoro ny hazo rehetra any an-tsaha.

O LORD, to thee will I cry: for the fire hath devoured the pastures of the wilderness, and the flame hath burned all the trees of the field.

Na dia ny biby any an-tsaha aza dia mihanahana miandrandra Anao, satria ritra ny renirano, ary efa levon'ny afo ny kijana any an-efitra.

The beasts of the field cry also unto thee: for the rivers of waters are dried up, and the fire hath devoured the pastures of the wilderness.
