< Isaiah 56 >
1 Thus says Jehovah, Keep ye justice, and do righteousness. For my salvation is near to come, and my righteousness to be revealed.
Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, “Ammoenyo ti nasayaat, aramidenyo ti nalinteg; ta asidegen ti panangisalakanko, ken maipakaammonto ti kinalintegko.
2 Blessed is the man who does this, and the son of man who holds it fast, who keeps the sabbath from profaning it, and keeps his hand from doing any evil.
Nagasat ti tao a mangar-aramid iti daytoy, ken ti siasinoman a mangsalsalimetmet iti daytoy. Ngilngilinenna ti Aldaw a Panaginana, saanna daytoy a tulawan, ken likliklikanna nga agaramid iti kinadakes.”
3 Neither let the foreigner, who has joined himself to Jehovah, speak, saying, Jehovah will surely separate me from his people, nor let the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree.
Saan koma nga ibaga ti gangannaet a nagbalin nga adipen ni Yahweh nga, “Ilaksidnakto ni Yahweh manipud kadagti tattaona.” Masapul a saan nga ibaga ti eunoko a, “Kitaenyo, maysaak a nagango a kayo.”
4 For thus says Jehovah of the eunuchs who keep my sabbaths, and choose the things that please me, and hold fast my covenant:
Ta kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, “Kadagiti eunoko nga agngilngilin iti Aldaw ti Panaginana ken mangpilpili iti makaay-ayo kaniak, ken mangsalimetmet iti tulagko—
5 To them I will give in my house and within my walls a memorial and a name better than of sons and of daughters. I will give them an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off.
Para kadakuada, ikabilkonto iti uneg ti balayko ken iti uneg dagiti paderko ti maysa a pakalaglagipan a nasaysayaat ngem iti addaan kadagiti annak a lallaki ken babbai; ikkakto ida iti agnanayon a pakalaglagipan a saanto a mapukaw.”
6 Also the foreigners who join themselves to Jehovah, to minister to him, and to love the name of Jehovah, to be his servants, everyone who keeps the sabbath from profaning it, and holds fast my covenant,
Kasta met dagiti gangannaet a makipagmaymaysa kenni Yahweh, tapno agserbi kenkuana, ken dagiti mangipatpateg iti nagan ni Yahweh, a mangidayaw kenkuana, amin nga agngilngilin iti Aldaw ti Panagina ken dagiti mangliklik a mangtulaw iti daytoy, ken dagiti mangsalsalimetmet iti tulagko,
7 even them I will bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer. Their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon my altar, for my house shall be called a house of prayer for all peoples.
“Ipankonto ida iti nasantoan a bantayko ken pagrag-oekto ida iti balayko a pagkararagan; maawatto dagiti datonda a maipuor ken dagiti sakripisioda iti altarko. Ta maawaganto ti balayko iti balay ti kararag nga agpaay kadagiti amin a nasion,
8 The lord Jehovah, who gathers the outcasts of Israel, says, Yet I will gather to him, besides his own who are gathered.
kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh nga Apo, a mangum-ummong kadagiti napapanaw iti Israel—Ummongekto pay dagiti dadduma a mainayon kadakuada.”
9 All ye beasts of the field, come to devour, yea, all ye beasts in the forest.
Dakayo amin a narungsot nga ayup iti tay-ak, umaykayo a mangalun-on, dakayo amin a narungsot nga ayup iti kabakiran!
10 His watchmen are blind. They are all without knowledge. They are all mute dogs. They cannot bark, dreaming, lying down, loving to slumber.
Bulsek amin a taga-bantayda; saanda a makaawat; kasda la aso nga awan am-ammona; saanda a makataul: agtagtagainep, agid-idda, pagaayatna ti maturog.
11 Yea, the dogs are greedy; they can never have enough. And these are shepherds who cannot understand. They have all turned to their own way, each one to his gain, from every quarter.
Narawet dagiti aso; saanda pulos a mapnek; kasda la agpaspastor nga awanan pannakaawat; nagturongda amin iti bukodda a dalan, ag-aguman ti tunggal maysa dagiti awan serserbina.
12 Come ye, they say, I will fetch wine, and we will fill ourselves with strong drink. And tomorrow shall be as this day, great beyond measure.
“Umayka” kunada, “Aginumtayo iti arak ken naingel a mainum; kastoyto manen inton bigat, maysa nga aldaw nga awan pakaiyaspinganna.”
