¹ Naho nirehake raho, narian'Agnahare vao ty ndatine? Sagnatria anie zay. Fa zaho avao kea le Israelita, foko Abrahama, bakamity foko Benjamina. ² Zagnahare le tsy nagnary ty ndatine, te le fa haine taloha. Tsy hainareo vao ty voatalily ty Soratre Masy miomba Elia, le ty fitaraignane tamin'Agnahare namofoke Israely? ty hoe: ³ Tompo, iereo le namono reo mpamisavisanao, namoteke ty alitaranao. Zaho arere sisa tavela, naho mipay ty fiaiko iereo." ⁴ Fa ino ro valen-drehake nambaran'Agnahare aze?" Nanoka fito arivo lahy hoahy ty vatako Raho te tsy nandohalehako teo amy Bala." ⁵ Le hoe zay, amizao henanezao avao kea le misy sisa avao naho ty fifilia amity hasoava. ⁶ Fa laha bakamity hasoava zay, le tsy bakamity asa sase. Fa laha zay le tsy hasoava sase ty hasoava.( Fagnamare: Ty tara-tasy ilane taloha le mamaky ty hoe:"Kanefa laha bakamireo asa zay, le tsy hasoava sase; fa laha zay le tsy asa sase ty asa.") ⁷ Ino re? Ty zaka ze pinay Israely, le tsy azona, fa ty voafily ro nahazo zay, naho nihamasigne reo sisane. ⁸ Zay le arake ty le fa voasoratre ty hoe:" Zagnahare le nagnomea iereo ty fagnahy ty koronta, maso mba tsy hahita iereo, naho sofy mba tsy hahareiza iereo, zisike androany." ⁹ Naho hoe Davida ty hoe:" Ao ty latabane ho harato vaho fandrike, ho vato maminga vaho valefate hoa iereo. ¹⁰ Ao ty maso iereo haieke mba tsy hahita, naho ao hiondreke zisikagne ty lambosy iereo." ¹¹ Le hoe raho ty hoe:"Feie vao tafintohy reo mba ho lavo?" Sagnatria anie zay. Fa kea, bakamity fahavalo iereo, ro nahavia ty famonjea teo amireo Jentilisa, mba hampialo iereo. ¹² Naho laha ty fahavalo iereo ro harea zao iaby zao, naho laha ty harobaha iereo ro harea reo jentilisa, le manao akore ty habey ty halefea iereo? ¹³ Fa henanezao le mirehake aminareo Jentilisa raho, naho laha mboe apositoly reo jentilisa raho, le tea ty fanompoako. ¹⁴ Asa hampialo reo ze bakamity nofoko arere raho. Asa hamonje ty ilane amiereo tika. ¹⁵ Fa laha midika fampilongoa zao iaby zao ty faniera iereo, le ino ro handraesa iereo zay fa havelo bakamity fate? ¹⁶ Laha voa-toka ty vokatre voalohane, le ty agnilane amity kobam-bare kea. Laha voatoka ty tahone, le hoe zay avao kea reo tahone. ¹⁷ Fa laha tinampake ty tahone ilane, naho laha riha, tahon-olivanala, ro naharo teo amiereo, naho laha nifampizara tamiereo ty taho-mamokatre ty hetae oliva riha, ¹⁸ ko mirehareha amireo tahone. Fa laha mirehareha riha, le tsy riha ro manday ty tahone, fa ty tahone ro manday anao. ¹⁹ Le hirehake riha ty hoe:"Tinampake hiala reo tahone mba hahafahako mifandray amine." ²⁰ Mare zay. Naho ty tsy finoa iereo le tinampake hiala iereo, fa nareo le mitsanga soa naho ty finoanareo. Ko manao ty vatanareo ho ambone, fa matahora. ²¹ Fa laha ty vatane tahone aza tsy nengan'Agnahare, le tsy ho engane avao kea riha. ²² Naho, Henteo, ty hamoram-po vaho ty hasarom-pon'Agnahare. Ty agnilane, ty hasarom-po le niavy amireo Jiosy ze nilavo. Fa ty eroa kea, ty hasoampagnahin'Agnahare le avy aminareo, laha maharetre ao amity hasoam-pagnahine nareo. Fa laha tsy zay le ho tampahe kea nareo. ²³ Naho ndra rey aza, laha tsy manohy amity tsy finoane iereo, le haharo. Fa Zagnahare le afake magnere mangaro iereo ndraike. ²⁴ Fa laha tinampake tamity hetae oliva-le nareo, ka naharo tamity hetae oliva soa, le hoe ty akore ty fihoara ty hamaro reo Jiosy, te sampagna voajagnahare, naharo tamity hetae oliva iereo arere? ²⁵ Fa tsy teako tsy hahay nareo, ry rahalahy, ty amize zaka-mihaja zay, mba tsy haha-hendre anareo amity eretrerenareo arere. Ze zaka mihaja zay le fa nahamafe loha ty ambaky Israely, mandrampahavy ty hafenoa reo Jentilisa. ²⁶ Laha zao le ho vonje iaby ty Israely iaby, arake ty voasoratre ty hoe:" Hiakatre bakagne Ziona ty mpagnafake. Hagnafake ty haratiam-pagnahy amy Jakoba Re, ²⁷ naho zay ro ho fagnen-keam-pilongoako amiereo, laha fa hagnafake ty hadisoa iereo Raho." ²⁸ Amity lafine raike mikasike ty zaka-soa, le fahavalo iereo naho ty aminareo. Amity lafine raike hafa arake ty safidin'Agnahare, le malala iereo naho reo raza. ²⁹ Fa reo fagnomea vaho kain'Agnahare le tsy miova. ³⁰ Fa nareo le tsy nagnenke an'Agnahare taloha, kanefa amizao nareo le nandrae ty fandefera naho ty tsy fagnenkea iereo. ³¹ Tahake zay avao kea, henanezao reo Jiosy le tsy nagnenke. Ty vokane le tamity alala ty fandefera ze natoro anareo ro mete handraesa iereo ty fandefera avao kea amizao. ³² Fa Zagnahare le fa nagnily ty tsy fagnenkea iaby, mba hahafahane manoro fandefera amiaby. ³³ Hehe, ty halale reo harea ty hamarea vaho fahaian'Agnahare! Tsy taka ty say reo fitsarane, naho reo lalane le tsy hay metare! ³⁴ "Fa ia ro mahay ty dine Tompo ndra ia ro hoavy ho mpagnomea-hevetre Aze? ³⁵ Ndra ia ro nagnomea zaka an'Agnahare aloha, ka tsy mahaintsy hagnoregnan'Agnahare aze ndraike?" ³⁶ Fa bakamine avo amity alalane naho ho Aze ty zaka iaby. Ho Aze zisikagne ty hasy. Amena.
