< Jeremiah 23 >

1 Woe to the shepherds who destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! says Jehovah.
“Asi pay dagiti agpaspastor a mangdadael ken mangiwarawara kadagiti karnero ti pagpaarabak— kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.”
2 Therefore thus says Jehovah, the God of Israel, against the shepherds who feed my people: Ye have scattered my flock, and driven them away, and have not visited them. Behold, I will visit upon you the evil of your doings, says Jehovah.
Isu a kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, a Dios ti Israel maipapan kadagiti agpaspastor a mangay-aywan kadagiti tattaona, “Warwaraenyo dagiti arbanko ken pagtaltalawenyo ida. Awan a pulos iti panangisakityo kadakuada. Ammoenyo daytoy! Supapakankayonto gapu kadagiti dakes nga ar-aramidyo—daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh.
3 And I will gather the remnant of my flock out of all the countries where I have driven them, and will bring them again to their folds, and they shall be fruitful and multiply.
Siak a mismo ti mangurnong kadagiti nabatbati nga arbanko manipud kadagiti amin a dagdaga a nangipaturongak kadakuada, ket isublikto ida iti lugar a pagaraban, a sadiay ket agbalindanto a nabunga ken umaduda.
4 And I will set up shepherds over them who shall feed them. And they shall fear no more, nor be dismayed. Neither shall any be lacking, says Jehovah.
Ket mangpataudakto kadagiti agpaspastor a mangaywan kadakuada a mangaywan ket saandanton nga agbuteng wenno agamak. Awanto kadakuada iti mapukaw— kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.
5 Behold, the days come, says Jehovah, that I will raise to David a righteous Branch, and he shall reign as king and deal wisely, and shall execute justice and righteousness in the land.
Kitaenyo, dumteng dagiti al-aldaw— kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh— Inton mangisaadak iti nalinteg a sanga maipaay kenni David. Agturayto isuna a kas ari; mangiyegto isuna iti kinarang-ay ken ipatungpalna ti hustisia ken kinalinteg iti daga.
6 In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely. And this is his name by which he shall be called: Jehovah our righteousness.
Kadagiti al-aldawna ket maispalto ti Juda, ken agbiagto a sitatalged ti Israel. Ket kastoy ti nagan a maiyawagto kenkuana; Ni Yahweh ti Kinalintegtayo.
7 Therefore, behold, the days come, says Jehovah, that they shall no more say, As Jehovah lives, who brought up the sons of Israel out of the land of Egypt,
Ngarud kitaenyo, dumtengto dagiti al-aldaw—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—inton saandanton pulos nga ibaga, 'Iti nagan ni Yahweh nga adda iti agnanayon, a nangiruar kadagiti tattao ti Israel manipud iti daga ti Egipto.'
8 but, As Jehovah lives, who brought up and who led the seed of the house of Israel out of the north country, and from all the countries where I had driven them. And they shall dwell in their own land.
Ngem ketdi kunadanto, 'Iti nagan ni Yahweh nga adda iti agnanayon, a nangiruar ken nangisubli kadagiti kaputotan iti balay ti Israel manipud iti akin-amianan a daga ken kadagiti amin a dagdaga a naipananda.' Ket agnaeddanto iti bukodda a daga.”
9 Concerning the prophets: My heart within me is broken. All my bones shake. I am like a drunken man, and like a man whom wine has overcome, because of Jehovah, and because of his holy words.
Maipapan kadagiti profeta, nadagsen ti barukongko iti kaunggak, ken agpigerger amin a tultulangko. Kayarigak ti lalaki a nabartek, lalaki nga inturayan ti arak, gapu kenni Yahweh ken iti nasantoan a sasaona.
10 For the land is full of adulterers. For because of swearing the land mourns. The pastures of the wilderness are dried up. And their course is evil, and their might is not right.
Ta napunno ti daga kadagiti mannakikamalala. Gapu iti daytoy ket agdung-aw ti daga. Magango dagiti ruot iti pagaraban idiay let-ang. Nadangkes ti daldalan dagitoy a profeta; saan a nausar iti umno a wagas ti kinabilegda.
11 For both prophet and priest are profane. Yea, in my house I have found their wickedness, says Jehovah.
Ta agpadpada a narugitan dagiti profeta ken dagiti papadi. Nasarakak pay ti kinadangkesda iti uneg ti balayko! —kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—
12 Therefore their way shall be to them as slippery places in the darkness. They shall be driven on, and fall in it. For I will bring evil upon them, even the year of their visitation, says Jehovah.
isu a dagiti daldalanda ket kaslanto iti maysa a nagalis a lugar iti kasipngetan. Maitublakdanto. Matuangdanto iti daytoy. Ta mangiyegakto kadakuada ti didigra iti tawen a pannakadusada— kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—
13 And I have seen folly in the prophets of Samaria. They prophesied by Baal, and caused my people Israel to err.
ta adda nakitak a kinadakes kadagiti profeta iti Samaria. Nagipadtoda iti nagan ni Baal ket inturongda dagiti tattaok nga Israel iti nakillo a pagnaan.
14 In the prophets of Jerusalem also I have seen a horrible thing. They commit adultery, and walk in lies. And they strengthen the hands of evildoers, so that none returns from his wickedness. They have all of them become to me as Sodom, and the inhabitants thereof as Gomorrah.
Ket kadagiti profeta iti Jerusalem, nakakitaak kadagiti nakarimrimon a banbanag: Makikamkamalalada ken agbibiagda iti kinamangallilaw. Papigsaenda dagiti im-ima dagiti managdakdakes; awan ti mangtallikod iti kinadakesna. Nagbalinda amin kaniak a kas iti Sodoma ken dagiti agnanaed iti daytoy ket kas iti Gomora!”
15 Therefore thus says Jehovah of hosts concerning the prophets: Behold, I will feed them with wormwood, and make them drink the water of gall. For from the prophets of Jerusalem ungodliness has gone forth into all the land.
Isu a kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh maipapan kadagiti profeta, “Kitaenyo, ngannganin ti panangpakanko kadakuada iti napait a makan ken painumek ida iti danum a makasabidong, ta manipud kadagiti profeta ti Jerusalem rimmuar ti kinarugit iti amin a daga.”
16 Thus says Jehovah of hosts: Hearken not to the words of the prophets who prophesy to you. They teach you vanity. They speak a vision of their own heart, and not out of the mouth of Jehovah.
Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin, “Saankayo a dumngeg kadagiti sasao dagiti profeta nga agipadpadto kadakayo. Ta iyaw-awandakayo! Ta agiwaragawagda kadagiti sirmata manipud kadagiti bukodda a panunot, saan a nagtaud iti ngiwat ni Yahweh.
17 They say continually to those who despise me, Jehovah has said, Ye shall have peace. And to everyone who walks in the stubbornness of his own heart they say, No evil shall come upon you.
Kankanayonda nga ibagbaga kadagiti saan nga agraem kaniak, 'Ipakpakaammo ni Yahweh nga addanto talna kadakayo.' Ken kuna ti tunggal maysa nga agbibiag segun iti bukodda a pagayatan, 'Awanto ti dumteng a didigra kadakayo.'
18 For who has stood in the council of Jehovah, that he should perceive and hear his word? Who has marked my word, and heard it?
Ngem siasino kadi ti nakitaripnong iti konseho ni Yahweh? Siasino kadi ti mangsuksukimat ken mangdengngeg iti saona? Siasino kadi ti dumdumngeg ken mangipangpangag iti saona?
19 Behold, the tempest of Jehovah, wrath, has gone forth, yea, a whirling tempest. It shall burst upon the head of the wicked.
Kitaenyo, adda bagio nga aggapu kenni Yahweh! Ti rungsot ti pungtotna ket rummuar, ken adda kasla alipugpog nga agliklikaw. Agliklikaw daytoy kadagiti ulo dagiti nadangkes.
20 The anger of Jehovah shall not return until he has executed, and till he has performed the intents of his heart. In the latter days ye shall understand it perfectly.
Ti pungtot ni Yahweh ket saanto nga agsardeng agingga a maaramidna daytoy ken maipatungpalna dagiti pinanggep ti pusona. Kadagiti maud-udi nga al-aldaw, maawatanyonto daytoy.
21 I did not send these prophets, yet they ran. I did not speak to them, yet they prophesied.
Saanko nga imbaon dagitoy a profeta. Nagparangda lattan. Awan iti impakaammok kadakuada, ngem nagipadtoda latta.
22 But if they had stood in my council, then they would have caused my people to hear my words, and would have turned them from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings.
Ta no nakitaripnongda koma iti panaguumong ti konsehok, ti soak koma ti imbagada kadagiti tattaok; ket pinagtallikudda koma dagitoy manipud iti kinadangkesda ken kadagiti dakes nga ar-aramidda.
23 Am I a God at hand, says Jehovah, and not a God afar off?
Maysaak kadi laeng a Dios nga adda iti asideg—kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh - ken saan aya a siak ket Dios nga adda met laeng iti adayo?
24 Can any man hide himself in secret places so that I shall not see him? says Jehovah. Do I not fill heaven and earth? says Jehovah.
Mabalin kadi nga aglemmeng ti maysa a tao iti nalemmeng a lugar tapno saanko a makita? — kastoy iti pakaammo ni Yahweh— ken saan aya a pinunnok ti daga ken ti langit? — kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.
25 I have heard what the prophets have said, who prophesy lies in my name, saying, I have dreamed, I have dreamed.
Nangngegko dagiti imbaga dagiti profeta, dagidiay agipadpadto iti naganko iti inaallilaw. Kinunada, ‘Adda tagtagainepko! Adda tagtagainepko!'
26 How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets who prophesy lies, even the prophets of the deceit of their own heart?
Kasanonto pay kabayag ti panagtultuloy daytoy, dagiti profeta nga agipadpadto iti inuulbod manipud kadagiti panunotda, ken agipadpadto manipud iti panangallilaw kadagiti puspusoda?
27 Who think to cause my people to forget my name by their dreams which they tell every man to his neighbor, as their fathers forgot my name for Baal.
Ti pananglipat dagiti tattaok iti naganko ti panggepda babaen kadagiti tagtagainep nga ipadpadamagda, tunggal maysa iti karrubana, kas iti pananglipat dagiti kapuonanda iti naganko maigapu iti nagan ni Baal.
28 The prophet who has a dream, let him tell a dream. And he who has my word, let him speak my word faithfully. What is the straw to the wheat? says Jehovah.
Ti profeta nga addaan iti tagtagainep, ipadamagna koma ti tagtagainepna. Ngem ti tao a nangipakaammoak iti maysa a banag, sipupudno koma nga ipakaammona ti sao. Ania koma ti pakainaigan ti garami iti bukel? - kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh —
29 Is not my word like fire? says Jehovah, and like a hammer that breaks the rock in pieces?
ken saan aya a kasla apuy ti saok? - kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh - ken kasla martilio a mangburak iti bato?
30 Therefore, behold, I am against the prophets, says Jehovah, who steal my words each one from his neighbor.
Isu a kitaenyo, kabusorko dagiti profeta— kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh - siasinoman nga agtakaw iti sasao manipud iti sabali a tao ken ibagana a nagtaud kaniak.
31 Behold, I am against the prophets, says Jehovah, who use their tongues, and say, He says.
Kitaenyo, kabusorko dagiti profeta - kastoy iti pakaammo ni Yahweh – a mangus-usar kadagiti dilada a mangipadto kadagiti pakaammo.
32 Behold, I am against those who prophesy lying dreams, says Jehovah, and tell them. And cause my people to err by their lies, and by their vain boasting. Yet I sent them not, nor commanded them, neither do they profit this people at all, says Jehovah.
Kitaenyo, kabusorko dagiti profeta a mangibagbaga nga adda tagtagainepda—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—ket kalpasanna iwaragawagda dagitoy ket iti kastoy a wagas maiyaw-awan dagiti tattaok gapu iti panangallilaw ken panagpannakkelda. Kabusorko ida, ta saanko ida nga imbaon wenno inikkan kadagiti bilbilin. Isu a sigurado a saanda a makatulong kadagitoy a tattao - kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.
33 And when this people, or the prophet, or a priest, shall ask thee, saying, What is the burden of Jehovah? Then thou shall say to them, What burden! I will cast you off, says Jehovah.
Inton agsaludsud kenka dagitoy a tattao, wenno maysa a profeta, wenno maysa a padi a kunada, 'Ania ti pakaammo ni Yahweh? ket masapul a kunaem kadakuada, 'Ania a pakaammo? Gapu ta binaybay-ankayo'— kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.
34 And as for the prophet, and the priest, and the people, who shall say, The burden of Jehovah, I will even punish that man and his house.
No maipapan met kadagiti profeta, papadi, ken tattao a mangibagbaga, 'Kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh,' Dusaekto dayta a tao ken ti balayna.
35 Thus ye shall say each one to his neighbor, and each one to his brother: What has Jehovah answered? and, What has Jehovah spoken?
Itultuloyyo nga ibagbaga, tunggal maysa iti karrubana ken tunggal maysa iti kabsatna, 'Ania ti sungbat ni Yahweh?' ken ‘Ania ti pakaammo ni Yahweh?’
36 And the burden of Jehovah ye shall mention no more, for every man's own word shall be his burden. For ye have perverted the words of the living God, of Jehovah of hosts our God.
Ngem masapul a saanyon a sawen ti maipapan iti pakaammo ni Yahweh, agsipud ta ti tunggal ibaga ti tunggal tao ket agbalin a bukodna a mensahe, ket kinilloyo dagiti sasao ti sibibiag a Dios, ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin, a Diostayo.
37 Thus thou shall say to the prophet: What has Jehovah answered thee? and, What has Jehovah spoken?
Kastoy ti rumbeng a saludsodem iti profeta, 'Ania ti sungbat ni Yahweh kenka? Ania ti imbaga ni Yahweh?'
38 But if ye say, The burden of Jehovah, therefore thus says Jehovah: Because ye say this word, The burden of Jehovah, and I have sent to you, saying, Ye shall not say, The burden of Jehovah,
Ket ipadamagyo ti pakaammo manipud kenni Yahweh, ngem kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, 'Kunayo, “Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh,” uray no nangipatulodak iti bilin kadakayo a kunak, “Saanyo nga ibaga: Kastoy ti pakaammmo manipud kenni Yahweh.”
39 therefore, behold, I will utterly forget you. And I will cast you off, and the city that I gave to you and to your fathers, away from my presence.
Ngarud, kitaenyo, pidutenkayo ken ipurruakkayo a maiyadayo kaniak, kasta met dagaiti siudad nga intedko kadakayo ken kadagiti kapuonanyo.
40 And I will bring an everlasting reproach upon you, and a perpetual shame, which shall not be forgotten.
Kalpasanna ipalak-amkonto kadakayo ti agnanayon a pannakaibabain ken pannakauyaw a saanto a malipatan.'”
