< Jeremiah 3 >
1 They say, If a man puts away his wife, and she goes from him, and become another man's, will he return to her again? Will not that land be greatly polluted? But thou have played the harlot with many lovers. Yet return again to me, says Jehovah.
“Kunada, 'Adda maysa a lalaki a mangpatpatalaw iti asawana, isu a pimmanaw ti babai ket nagbalin nga asawa ti sabali a lalaki. Rumbeng kadi a sublien ti lalaki ti babai? Saan kadi a naan-anayen a narugit ti babai?' Dayta a babai ket daytoy a daga! Nagtignayka a kas iti balangkantis nga addaan iti adu a kaayan-ayat, ket ita kayatmo ti agsubli kaniak? —kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.
2 Lift up thine eyes to the bare heights, and see. Where have thou not been lain with? By the ways thou have sat for them, as an Arabian in the wilderness, and thou have polluted the land with thy whoredoms and with thy wickedness.
Tumangadka ket kumitaka kadagiti tapaw dagiti turod! Sadino ti saanmo a nakikaiddaan? Nagtugawka kadagiti igid dagiti daldalan a mangur-uray kadagiti kaayan-ayatmo, a kasla ka la tulisan nga agpadpadaan idiay let-ang. Tinulawam ti daga iti kinabalangkantis ken kinadangkesmo.
3 Therefore the showers have been withheld, and there has been no latter rain. Yet thou have a harlot's forehead; thou refused to be ashamed.
Isu a nalapdan dagiti arbis ken saan a nagtinnag ti maudi a tudo. Ngem natangsit ta rupam a kas iti rupa ti balangkantis a babai. Saanmo ng ammo ti agbain.
4 Will thou not from this time cry to me, My Father, thou are the guide of my youth?
Manipud ita a tiempo, saankanto aya nga umawag kaniak a kunam, 'Amak! Sika ti kasingedan a gayyemko manipud pay kinaagtutubok.
5 Will he retain his anger forever? Will he keep it to the end? Behold, thou have spoken, and have done evil things, and have had thy way.
Agnanayon kadi ti ungetmo? Pagtalinaedem kadi a kanayon ti ungetmo?' Dumngegka! Impakaammom nga agaramidka iti dakes, ket inaramidmo dayta. Itultuloymo ngarud nga aramiden dayta!”
6 Moreover Jehovah said to me in the days of Josiah the king, Have thou seen that which backsliding Israel has done? She has gone up upon every high mountain and under every green tree, and there has played the harlot.
Ket kinuna ni Yahweh kaniak kadagidi aldaw ni Josias nga ari, “Makitam kadi ti panangliput ti Israel kaniak? Mapan isuna iti tunggal nangato a bantay ken iti sirok ti tunggal nalangto a kayo, ket sadiay agtignay a kasla balangkantis a babai.
7 And I said after she had done all these things, She will return to me, but she returned not. And her treacherous sister Judah saw it.
Kinunak, 'Kalpasan a maaramidna amin dagitoy a banbanag, agsublinto isuna kaniak,' ngem saan nagsubli. Ket nakita ti nagulib a kabsatna a ni Juda ti inaramidna.
8 And I saw, when, for this very cause that backsliding Israel had committed adultery, I had put her away and given her a bill of divorcement, yet treacherous Judah her sister feared not, but she also went and played the harlot.
Isu a nakitak a gapu kadagitoy amin a nakikamalala isuna. Managsukir nga Israel! Pinagtalawko isuna ket inikkak iti kasuratan ti panagsina. Ngem saan a nagbuteng ti nagulib a kabsatna a ni Juda, ket rimmuar ken nagtigtignay met a kas iti balangkantis a babai!
9 And it came to pass through the frivolity of her whoredom, that the land was polluted, and she committed adultery with stones and with stocks.
Awan aniamanna kenkuana a tinulawanna ti daga, isu a nagaramidda kadagiti bato ken kayo a didiosen.
10 And yet for all this her treacherous sister Judah has not returned to me with her whole heart, but in pretense, says Jehovah.
Ket kalpasan amin dagitoy, uray ti nagulib a kabsatna a ni Juda ket saan a nagsubli kaniak iti amin a pusona, no di ket naginsusubli! —kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.”
11 And Jehovah said to me, Backsliding Israel has shown herself more righteous than treacherous Judah.
Ket kinuna ni Yahweh kaniak, “Nalinlinteg ti mangliliput nga Israel ngem iti nagulib a Juda!
12 Go, and proclaim these words toward the north, and say, Return, thou backsliding Israel, says Jehovah, I will not look in anger upon you, for I am merciful, says Jehovah. I will not keep anger forever.
Mapanmo iwaragawag daytoy iti amianan. Kunaem, ''Agsublika, sika a mangliliput nga Israel! —kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—saanakto a kanayon a makaunget kenka. Agsipud ta napudnoak—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—saanak nga agnanayon a makaunget.”
13 Only acknowledge thine iniquity, that thou have transgressed against Jehovah thy God, and have scattered thy ways to the strangers under every green tree, and ye have not obeyed my voice, says Jehovah.
Bigbigem ti basolmo, ta nagbasolka kenni Yahweh a Diosmo; nakinaigka kadagiti ganggannaet iti sirok dagiti nalalangto a kayo! Ta saanmo nga impangag ti timekko! —kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.
14 Return, O backsliding sons, says Jehovah, for I am a husband to you. And I will take you, one of a city, and two of a family, and I will bring you to Zion.
Agsublikayo, dakayo a saan a napudno a tattao! —kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—ta inasawakayo! Mangalaak kadakayo iti maysa manipud iti tunggal siudad, dua manipud iti tunggal puli, ket ipankayo idiay Sion!
15 And I will give you shepherds according to my heart, who shall feed you with knowledge and understanding.
Ikkankayto kadagiti agpaspastor nga iti pagayatanna ket ti pagayatak, ken idalandakayonto nga addaan iti pannakaammo ken kinasirib.
16 And it shall come to pass, when ye are multiplied and increased in the land, in those days, says Jehovah, they shall no more say, The ark of the covenant of Jehovah, nor shall it come to mind. Neither shall they remember it, nor shall they miss it. Neither shall it be made any more.
Ket mapasamakto, nga umadu ken maaddaankayonto iti adu a kaputotan iti daytoy a daga kadagidiay nga al-aldaw—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh. Saandanton nga ibaga, “Ti lakasa ti tulag ni Yahweh!” Saandanton a malagip daytoy, ta saandanto a panunoten ti maipanggep iti daytoy wenno ikaskaso daytoy. Daytoy a sao ket saanton a maibaga pay.'
17 At that time they shall call Jerusalem the throne of Jehovah, and all the nations shall be gathered to it, to the name of Jehovah, to Jerusalem. Neither shall they walk any more after the stubbornness of their evil heart.
Iti dayta a tiempo, iwaragawagdanto maipanggep iti Jerusalem, 'Daytoy ti trono ni Yahweh,' ket aguummongto dagiti amin a nasion idiay Jerusalem iti nagan ni Yahweh. Saandanton nga aramiden dagiti dakes a tartarigagayanda.
18 In those days the house of Judah shall walk with the house of Israel, and they shall come together out of the land of the north to the land that I gave for an inheritance to your fathers.
Kadagidiay nga aldaw, makipagkaykaysanto ti balay ti Juda iti balay ti Israel. Agkuyogdanto nga umay manipud iti daga iti amianan ket mapanda iti daga nga intedko a kas tawid kadagiti kapuonanyo.
19 But I said, How I will put thee among the sons, and give thee a pleasant land, a goodly heritage of the hosts of the nations! And I said, Ye shall call me My Father, and shall not turn away from following me.
No kaniak, kinunak, 'Kayatka a padayawan a kas anakko a lalaki ken ikkanka iti nasayaat a daga, maysa a tawid a napinpintas ngem iti adda iti sadinnoman a nasion!' Imbagak koma nga, 'Awagandak nga “amak”.' Imbagak koma a saankanto a sumina iti panangsurotmo kaniak.
20 Surely as a wife treacherously departs from her husband, so ye have dealt treacherously with me, O house of Israel, says Jehovah.
Ngem kas iti babai a saan a napudno iti asawana, liniputannak, sika a balay ti Israel—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.”
21 A voice is heard upon the bare heights, the weeping and the supplications of the sons of Israel, because they have perverted their way; they have forgotten Jehovah their God.
“Adda ariwawa a mangngeg kadagiti patad, ti panagsangit ken panagpakaasi dagiti tattao ti Israel! Ta binaliwanda dagiti wagasda; nalipatandak, Siak a ni Yahweh a Diosda.
22 Return, ye backsliding sons, I will heal your backslidings. Behold, we have come to thee, for thou are Jehovah our God.
Agsublikayo, dakayo a tattao a nangtallikud iti Apo! Paimbagenkayo iti kinamanangallilawyo!” “Adtoy! Umaykami kenka, ta sika ni Yahweh a Diosmi!
23 Truly it is in vain from the heights, the multitude on the mountains. Truly in Jehovah our God is the salvation of Israel.
Ulbod laeng ti agtaud kadagiti turod, manipud kadagiti adu a bantay. Pudno a ti pannakaisalakan ti Israel ket adda laeng kenni Yahweh a Diostayo.
24 But the shameful thing has devoured the labor of our fathers from our youth, their flocks and their herds, their sons and their daughters.
Ngem dagiti nakababain a didiosen ket inalun-onda dagiti nagbannogan dagiti kapuonantayo— dagiti arban iti karnero ken bakada, dagiti annakda a lallaki ken babbai!
25 Let us lie down in our shame, and let our confusion cover us, for we have sinned against Jehovah our God, we and our fathers, from our youth even to this day, and we have not obeyed the voice of Jehovah our God.
Agiddatayo a sibabain. Abbongannatayo koma ti pannakaibabaintayo, ta nagbasoltayo kenni Yahweh a Diostayo! Datayo a mismo ken dagiti kapuonantayo, manipud idi tiempo ti kinaagtutubotayo agingga kadagitoy nga agdama nga aldaw, saantayo a dimngeg iti timek ni Yahweh a Diostayo!”
