< Isaiah 31 >

1 Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help, and rely on horses, and trust in chariots because they are many, and in horsemen because they are very strong, but they look not to the Holy One of Israel, nor seek Jehovah!
Asi pay dagiti sumalog idiay Egipto tapno agpatulong ken dagiti agtalek kadagiti kabalio, ken dagiti agtalek kadagiti karwahe (gapu ta adu dagitoy) ken kadagiti agkabkabalio (gapu ta saan a mabilang dagitoy). Ngem saanda a pakaseknan ti maipapan iti Nasantoan ti Israel, wenno saanda a sapulen ni Yahweh!
2 Yet he also is wise, and will bring evil, and will not call back his words, but will arise against the house of the evildoers, and against the help of those who work iniquity.
Ngem nasirib isuna, ket idissuornanto ti didigra ken saannanto a baliwan dagiti saona. Ket busurennanto ti balay ti dakes ken dagiti mangtultulong kadagiti agar-aramid iti basol.
3 Now the Egyptians are men, and not God, and their horses flesh, and not spirit. And when Jehovah shall stretch out his hand, both he who helps shall stumble, and he who is helped shall fall, and they shall all be consumed together.
Ti Egipto ket tao saan ket a Dios, lasag laeng dagiti kabalioda saan ket nga espiritu. Inton igaw-at ni Yahweh ti imana, dagiti mangtultulong ket maitublakto, ken dagiti matultulongan ket matumbanto; agpadada a mapukaw.
4 For thus says Jehovah to me, As the lion and the young lion growling over his prey, even if a multitude of shepherds are called forth against him, he will not be dismayed at their voice, nor abase himself for the noise of them, so Jehovah of hosts will come down to fight upon mount Zion, and upon the hill of it.
Kastoy ti kinuna ni Yahweh kaniak, “Kas iti leon, uray ti urbon a leon ket ngerngeranna ti kinemmegna a kanenna, no pukkawan daytoy ti maysa a bunggoy dagiti agpaspastor, saan daytoy nga agbuteng kadagiti timekda, wenno agtaray gapu iti pukkawda; kastanto met ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin inton umulog a makiranget idiay tapaw ti Bantay Sion, iti dayta a turod.
5 As birds hovering, so Jehovah of hosts will protect Jerusalem. He will protect and deliver. He will pass over and preserve.
Kas kadagiti billit a tumaytayab, salaknibanto ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin ti Jerusalem; salakniban ken ispalennanto inton lumabas isuna iti daytoy, ken ikanawana daytoy.
6 Turn ye to him from whom ye have deeply revolted, O sons of Israel.
Agsublikayo kenkuana, dakayo a tattao ti Israel a timmallikod kenkuana.
7 For in that day they shall cast away every man his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which your own hands have made to you for a sin.
Ta iti dayta nga aldaw, tunggal maysa ket ibellengnanto dagiti didiosenna a pirak ken balitok a sibabasol nga inaramid dagiti imayo.
8 And the Assyrian shall fall by the sword, not of man, and the sword, not of men, shall devour him. But he shall flee from the sword, and his young men shall become subject to task work.
Mapasagto ti Asiria babaen iti kampilan; maysa a kampilan a saan nga inaramid ti tao ti mangdadael iti daytoy. Aglibasto daytoy manipud iti kampilan, ket mapilitto dagiti agtutubo daytoy nga agtrabaho iti nadagsen.
9 And his rock shall pass away because of terror, and his rulers shall be dismayed at the ensign, says Jehovah, whose fire is in Zion, and his furnace in Jerusalem.
Mapukawdanto ti amin a talekda gapu iti buteng, ket agbutengto dagiti prisipena iti imatang ti bandera ni Yahweh.” — Daytoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh, a ti apuyna ket adda idiay Sion ken ti urnona ket adda idiay Jerusalem.
