Jeremiah 2
1 And the word of Jehovah came to me, saying,
Immay ti sao ni Yahweh kaniak a kinunana,
2 Go and cry in the ears of Jerusalem, saying, Thus says Jehovah, I remember for thee the kindness of thy youth, the love of thine espousals, how thou went after me in the wilderness, in a land that was not sown.
“Mapanmo iwaragawag kadagiti lapayag ti Jerusalem. Kunaem, 'Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh: Linagipko para iti apgsayaatam ti kinapudnom iti katulaganta idi agtutuboka, ti ayatmo idi tiempo a nagtulagta nga agasawata, idi sinurotnak idiay let-ang, a daga a saan a namulaan.
3 Israel was holiness to Jehovah, the first-fruits of his increase. All who devour him shall be held guilty. Evil shall come upon them, says Jehovah.
Naidaton kenni Yahweh ti Israel, ti immuna a bunga ti apit! Amin a nangan manipud kadagiti immuna a bunga ket nakabasol! Dakesto ti mapagtengda—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.'”
4 Hear ye the word of Jehovah, O house of Jacob, and all the families of the house of Israel.
Denggenyo ti sao ni Yahweh, O balay ni Jacob ken tunggal pamilia iti balay ti Israel.
5 Thus says Jehovah: What unrighteousness have your fathers found in me, that they have gone far from me, and have walked after vanity, and have become vain?
Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, “Ania aya ti biddut a nasarakan dagiti ammayo kaniak, ta immadayoda iti panangsurotda kaniak? Ta sinurotda dagiti awan serserbina a didiosen ket nagbalinda met nga awan serserbina?
6 Nor did they say, Where is Jehovah who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, who led us through the wilderness, through a land of deserts and of pits, through a land of drought and of the shadow of death, through a land that none passed through, and where no man dwelt?
Saanda man laeng a sinaludsod, 'Sadino ti ayan ni Yahweh, a nangiruar kadatayo iti daga ti Egipto? Sadino ti ayan ni Yahweh, a nangidalan kadatayo idiay let-ang, iti daga ti Araba, iti abut iti daga a namaga ken kasta unay ti kinasipngetna, daga nga awan iti lumablabas ken awan iti agnanaed?'
7 And I brought you into a plentiful land, to eat the fruit of it and the goodness of it. But when ye entered, ye defiled my land, and made my heritage an abomination.
Ngem impankayo iti daga ti Carmel, tapno kanenyo ti bunga daytoy ken dagiti dadduma a nasayaat a banbanag! Ngem idi immaykayo, tinulawanyo ti dagak, pinagbalinyo a makarimon ti tawidko!
8 The priests did not say, Where is Jehovah? And those who handle the law did not know me. The rulers also transgressed against me. And the prophets prophesied by Baal, and walked after things that do not profit.
Saan a sinaludsod ti padi, 'Sadino ti ayan ni Yahweh?' ken saan nga inkankano dagiti nalalaing iti linteg! Nagbasol kaniak dagiti agpaspastor. Nagipadto dagiti profeta para kenni Baal ken nagdaydayawda kadagiti awan mamaayna a banbanag.
9 Therefore I will yet contend with you, says Jehovah, and I will contend with your son's sons.
Isu nga akusarankayo latta—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—ken akusarak dagiti annak dagiti annakyo.
10 For pass over to the isles of Kittim, and see, and send to Kedar, and consider diligently, and see if there has been such a thing.
Ta bumallasiwkayo kadagiti igid ti baybay ti Kitim ket kitaenyo. Mangibaonkayo kadagiti mensahero a mapan idiay Kedar ket ammoen ken kitaenyo no adda iti kas iti daytoy a napasamak idi.
11 Has a nation changed its gods, which yet are no gods? But my people have changed their glory for that which does not profit.
Adda aya nasion a nangisukat kadagiti diosna, nupay saan a pudno a dios dagitoy? Ngem insukat dagiti tattaok ti dayagda iti awan maitulongna kadakuada.
12 Be astonished, O ye heavens, at this, and be horribly afraid. Be ye very desolate, says Jehovah.
Agkintayegkayo, dakayo a langlangit gapu iti daytoy! Makigtot ken agbutengkayo—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.
13 For my people have committed two evils: They have forsaken me, the fountain of living waters, and hewed them out cisterns, broken cisterns, that can hold no water.
Ta nakaaramid kaniak dagiti tattaok iti dua a kita iti kinadakes: Pinanawanda dagiti ubbog iti sibibiag a danum gapu iti panagkalida kadagiti bubon para kadakuada, nadadael a bubon a saan a makargaan iti danum!
14 Is Israel a servant? Is he a homebred one? Why has he become a prey?
Tagabu kadi ni Israel? Saan kadi a naipasngay isuna iti pagtaengan? Apay ngarud a nagbalin isuna a samsam?
15 The young lions have roared upon him, and yelled, and they have made his land waste. His cities are burned up, without inhabitant.
Nagngernger dagiti urbon a leon kenkuana. Nagariwawada iti kasta unay ket pinagbalinda a nakabutbuteng ti dagana! Nadadael dagiti siudadna ket awan ti agnanaed.
16 The sons also of Memphis and Tahpanhes have broken the crown of thy head.
Kasta met a kinalboandaka dagiti tattao ti Memfis ken Tafanes ken pinagbalindaka a tagabu!
17 Have thou not procured this to thyself, in that thou have forsaken Jehovah thy God when he led thee by the way?
Saan kadi a sika met laeng ti nangaramid iti daytoy iti bagim idi immadayoka kenni Yahweh a Diosmo, kabayatan nga idaldalannaka?
18 And now what have thou to do in the way to Egypt, to drink the waters of the Shihor? Or what have thou to do in the way to Assyria, to drink the waters of the River?
Ita ngarud, apay a magnaka iti dalan nga agturong idiay Egipto ken uminomka iti danum ti Sihor? Apay a magnaka iti dalan nga agturong idiay Asiria ken uminomka iti danum ti Karayan Eufrates?
19 Thine own wickedness shall correct thee, and thy backslidings shall reprove thee. Know therefore and see that it is an evil thing and a bitter, that thou have forsaken Jehovah thy God, and that my fear is not in thee, says the Lord, Jehovah of hosts.
Matubtubngarka gapu iti kinadangkesmo, ken madusdusaka gapu iti panangtallikudmo kaniak. Isu a panunotem ti maipapan iti daytoy ket amirisem a nadangkes ken nasaem ti ipaay kenka ti panangtallikudmo kaniak, Siak, a ni Yahweh a Diosmo, ken ti saanmon a panagbuteng kaniak—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh nga Apo a Mannakabalin amin.
20 For from old time I have broken thy yoke, and burst thy bonds. And thou said, I will not serve, for upon every high hill and under every green tree thou bowed thyself, playing the harlot.
Ta dinadaelko ti sangol nga adda kenka idi un-unana nga al-aldaw; pinugsatko dagiti kawarmo. Ngem kinunam latta, 'Saanak nga agserbi!' agsipud ta nagrukbabka iti tunggal nangato a turod ken iti sirok ti tunggal nalangto a kayo, sika a mannakikamalala.
21 Yet I had planted thee a noble vine, wholly a right seed. How then have thou turned into the degenerate branches of a foreign vine to me?
Ngem siak a mismo ti nangimula kenka a kas iti napili nga ubas, maysa a napintas a bukel. Ngem anian ta nagbalbaliwka kaniak, nagbalinka a kasla nalungtot nga ubas nga awan serserbina!
22 For though thou wash thee with lye, and take thee much soap, yet thine iniquity is marked before me, says the lord Jehovah.
Ta uray no dalusam ti bagim iti karayan wenno agusarka iti napigsa a sabon, ti basolmo ket mansa latta iti sangoanak—daytoy ti pakaammo ti Apo a ni Yahweh.
23 How can thou say, I am not defiled; I have not gone after the Baalim? See thy way in the valley. Know what thou have done, a swift dromedary traversing her ways,
Kasano a maibagam, 'Saanak a natulawan! Saanak a nagdayaw kadagiti Baal?' Kitaem ti kababalinmo kadagiti tanap! Ammirisem ti inaramidmo, sika a napartak a kamelio a taray a taray!
24 a wild donkey used to the wilderness, that sniffs up the wind in her desire. In her time of estrus who can turn her away? All those who seek her will not weary themselves. In her month they shall find her.
Naatapka nga asno, a naruam iti let-ang, agtartarigagay iti biag ken agal-al-al iti awan serserbina nga angin! Siasino ti makapasardeng iti daytoy inton agmaya? Siasinoman nga agsapul iti daytoy ket saan a mabannog. Mapanda iti daytoy iti kabulanan ti panagmayana.
25 Withhold thy foot from being unshod, and thy throat from thirst. But thou said, It is in vain. No, for I have loved strangers, and after them I will go.
Masapul a lappedam dagiti sakam nga agsakasaka ken ti karabukobmo iti pannakawaw! Ngem kinunam, 'Awan namnama! Saan, pagaayatko dagiti ganggannaet ket surotek ida!”
26 As the thief is shamed when he is found, so is the house of Israel shamed, they, their kings, their rulers, and their priests, and their prophets,
Kas iti pannakaibabain iti agtatakaw no kasta a matakuatan isuna, kastanto met ti pannakaibabain ti balay ti Israel—isuda, dagiti arida, dagiti prinsipeda, ken dagiti papadi ken profetada!
27 who say to a block of wood, Thou are my father, and to a stone, Thou have brought me forth. For they have turned their back to me, and not their face. But in the time of their trouble they will say, Arise, and save us.
Isuda dagiti nangibaga iti kayo, 'Sika ti amak,' ken iti bato, 'Impasngaynak.' Gapu ta ti likudda ti nakasango kaniak a saan ket a dagiti rupada. Nupay kasta, ibagbagada iti tiempo ti riribuk, 'Tumakderka ket isalakannakami!'
28 But where are thy gods that thou have made thee? Let them arise, if they can save thee in the time of thy trouble. For according to the number of thy cities are thy gods, O Judah.
Ngem sadino ti ayan dagiti didiosen nga inaramidmo para kenka? Tumakderda koma ngarud a no tarigagayda nga isalakandaka kadagiti tiempo a mariribukanka, ta agpada ti bilang dagiti didiosem kadagiti siudadmo, sika Juda!
29 Why will ye contend with me? Ye have all transgressed against me, says Jehovah.
Isu nga apay nga akusarandak a nakaaramidak iti biddut? Aminkayo ket nagbasol kaniak—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.
30 In vain I have smitten your sons. They received no correction. Your own sword has devoured your prophets like a destroying lion.
Awan serserbina ti panangdusak kadagiti tattaoyo. Saanda nga awaten ti panangiwanwanko. Inalun-on ti kampilanyo dagiti profetayo a kas iti naranggas a leon!
31 O generation, see ye the word of Jehovah. Have I been a wilderness to Israel, or a land of thick darkness? Why do my people say, We have broken loose. We will come no more to thee?
Dakayo a maibilang iti daytoy a henerasion! Ipangagyo ti saok, a sao ni Yahweh! Nagbalinak kadi a let-ang iti Israel? Wenno daga a kasta unay iti kinasipngetna? Apay nga ibaga dagiti tattaok, 'Mapankami iti sadinoman a kaykayatmi, saankamin nga umay kenka'?
32 Can a virgin forget her ornaments, or a bride her attire? Yet my people have forgotten me days without number.
Malipatan kadi ti birhen ti alahasna, ti nobia dagiti belona? Ngem nalipatannak dagiti tattaok iti saan a mabilang nga aldaw!
33 How thou trim thy way to seek love! Therefore even the wicked women thou have taught thy ways.
Anian a panangaramidmo iti amin a kabaelam nga agbirok iti ayat. Insurom pay dagiti wagasmo kadagiti nadangkes a babbai.
34 Also in thy skirts is found the blood of the souls of the innocent poor. Thou did not find them breaking in. But it is because of all these things.
Ti dara nga isu ti biag dagiti awan nakabasolanna, a napanglaw a tattao ket nasarakan kadagiti kawesmo. Dagitoy a tattao ket saan a nasarakan nga agar-aramid iti panagtakaw.
35 Yet thou said, I am innocent. Surely his anger is turned away from me. Behold, I will enter into judgment with thee because thou say, I have not sinned.
Ngem ketdi, iti laksid amin dagitoy a banbanag, ibagbagam latta, 'Awan basolko. Awan duadua a bimmaawen ti pungtot ni Yahweh kaniak.' Ngem kitaem! Maukomkanto agsipud ta kunam, 'Saanak a nagbasol.'
36 Why do thou gad about so much to change thy way? Thou shall be ashamed of Egypt also, as thou were ashamed of Assyria.
Apay a nalag-an laeng ti panangibilangmo iti daytoy a panagbaliw kadagiti wagasmo? Paayennakanto met ti Egipto, a kas iti pannakapaaymo iti Asiria.
37 Thou shall also go forth from there with thy hands upon thy head. For Jehovah has rejected those in whom thou trust. And thou shall not prosper with them.
Rummuarkanto met sadiay a naliday, a nakaparabaw dagiti imam iti ulom, ta linaksid ni Yahweh dagiti pagtaltalkam, isu a saandaka a matulongan dagitoy.”
