< Jeremiah 6 >

1 Flee for safety, ye sons of Benjamin, out of the midst of Jerusalem. And blow the trumpet in Tekoa, and raise up a signal on Beth-haccherem. For evil looks forth from the north, and a great destruction.
Birukenyo ti pagtalgedanyo, tattao ti Benjamin, babaen iti panangpanawyo iti Jerusalem. Mangpaunikayo iti tangguyob idiay Tekoa. Mangipangatokayo iti pagilasinan idiay Bet-Hakerem, agsipud ta agparparang ti kinadangkes manipud amianan; sumungsungaden ti dakkel a pannakadadael.
2 The comely and delicate one, the daughter of Zion, I will cut off.
Ti anak a babai ti Sion, ti napintas ken makaay-ayo a balasang, ket madadaelto.
3 Shepherds with their flocks shall come to her. They shall pitch their tents against her round about. They shall feed every one in his place.
Mapanto kadakuada dagiti agpaspastor agraman dagiti arbanda; agpatakderdanto kadagiti tolda iti aglawlaw daytoy; agpastorto ti tunggal tao baben iti bukodna nga ima.
4 Prepare ye war against her. Arise, and let us go up at noon. Woe to us! For the day declines; for the shadows of the evening are stretched out.
Kunanto dagiti ari, “Idatonyo dagiti bagbagiyo kadagiti dios para iti gubat. Tumakderkayo, rumauttayo iti tengnga ti aldaw. Saan a nasayaat a lumneken ti init ket sumipngeten.
5 Arise, and let us go up by night, and let us destroy her palaces.
Ngem rumauttayo iti rabii ket dadaelentayo dagiti sarikedkedna.''
6 For thus has Jehovah of hosts said: Hew ye down trees, and cast up a mound against Jerusalem. This is the city to be visited. She has oppression completely in the midst of her.
Ta kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin: Pukanenyo dagiti kayo ti Jerusalem, ken pagtutuonenyo a panglakub iti Jerusalem. Daytoy ti umisu a siudad a rautentayo, gapu ta napnoan daytoy iti panangidadanes.
7 As a well casts forth its waters, so she casts forth her wickedness. Violence and destruction is heard in her. Continually before me is sickness and wounds.
Kas iti bubon nga agtultuloy a mangmangted iti danum, kasta met ti panangparparnuay daytoy a siudad iti kinadakes. Kinaranggas ken riribuk ket mangmangngeg kenkuana. Agtultuloy ti panagsagaba ken didigra iti sangoanak.
8 Be thou instructed, O Jerusalem, lest my soul be alienated from thee, lest I make thee a desolation, a land not inhabited.
Awatem ti panangiwanwan, Jerusalem, ta no saan, tallikudanka ket dadaelenka, pagbalinenka a maysa a langalang a daga.'”
9 Thus says Jehovah of hosts: They shall thoroughly glean the remnant of Israel as a vine. Turn again thy hand as a grape gatherer into the baskets.
Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Manakabalin-amin, “Awan duadua nga umayda tudtoden a kas iti kaubasan dagiti nabatbati iti Israel. Igaw-atyo manen ti imayo a mangpuros iti bunga ti ubas manipud kadagiti sanga ti ubas.
10 To whom shall I speak and testify, that they may hear? Behold, their ear is uncircumcised, and they cannot hearken. Behold, the word of Jehovah has become to them a reproach; they have no delight in it.
Siasino ti rumbeng a pangipakaammoak ken pangiballaagak tapno dumngegda? Kitaem! Saan a nakugit dagiti lapayagda; saanda a kabaelan ti mangipangag! Kitaem! Immay ti sao ni Yahweh kadakuada a mangiwanwan kadakuada, ngem saanda a kayat daytoy.”
11 Therefore I am full of the wrath of Jehovah. I am weary with holding in. Pour it out upon the sons in the street, and upon the assembly of young men together. For even the husband with the wife shall be taken, the aged with him who is full of days.
Ngem napnoanak iti pungtot ni Yahweh, Nabannogakon a mangib-ibtur iti daytoy. Kinunana kaniak, “Ibuyatmo daytoy kadagiti ubbing kadagiti kalsada ken kadagiti bunggoy dagiti agtutubo a lallaki. Ta maipanaw ti tunggal lalaki a kadduana ti asawana; ken tunggal nataengan a tao kasta met dagiti adun iti tawenna.
12 And their houses shall be turned to others, their fields and their wives together. For I will stretch out my hand upon the inhabitants of the land, says Jehovah.
Maitedto iti sabali dagiti balayda, agraman dagiti taltalonda ken dagiti assawada. Ta rautekto dagiti agnanaed iti daga babaen iti imak-daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh-
13 For from the least of them even to the greatest of them everyone is given to covetousness. And from the prophet even to the priest everyone deals falsely.
ta manipud iti kanunumoan kadakuada agingga kadagiti katatan-okan – agar-aramid ti tunggal maysa kadakuada iti saan a nalinteg a pamusmusan tapno makakuarta. Manipud iti profeta agingga iti padi- manangallilaw ti tunggal maysa kadakuada.
14 They have also lightly healed the hurt of my people, saying, Peace, peace, when there is no peace.
Ngem agasanda dagiti sugsugat dagiti tattaok iti parparawpaw laeng, no kasta a kunaenda, ‘Kappia! Kappia!' idinto nga awan iti kappia.
15 Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? No, they were not at all ashamed, nor could they blush. Therefore they shall fall among those who fall. At the time that I visit them they shall be cast down, says Jehovah.
Nagbainda kadi idi nagaramidda kadagiti makarimon? Saanda a pulos a nagbain; saanda a napadasan ti nagpakumbaba. Isu a matnagdanto a kadua dagiti matnag iti tiempo a dusaek ida. Maabakdanto,” kuna ni Yahweh.
16 Thus says Jehovah, Stand ye in the ways and see. And ask for the old paths where is the good way. And walk in it, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk.
Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, “Agtakderkayo iti nagsangaan ti dalan ket kitaenyo; damagenyo dagiti nagkauna a pagnaan. Sadino ditoy ti nasayaat a dalan?' Ket mapankayo iti daytoy ket mangsapulkayo iti lugar a paginanaanyo. Ngem kuna dagiti tattao, Saankami a mapan.'
17 And I set watchmen over you, saying, Hearken to the sound of the trumpet. But they said, We will not hearken.
Nangdutokak kadakayo kadagiti agbantay a mangdengngeg iti tangguyob. Ngem kinunada, ' Saankaminto nga agdengngeg.
18 Therefore hear, ye nations, and know, O congregation, what is among them.
Ngarud, dumngegkayo, dakayo a nasion! Kitaenyo, dakayo a saksi, no anianto ti mapasamak kadakuada.
19 Hear, O earth: Behold, I will bring evil upon this people, even the fruit of their thoughts, because they have not hearkened to my words. And as for my law, they have rejected it.
Denggem, daga! Kitaem, dandanikon iyeg ti didigra kadagitoy a tattao- ti bunga dagiti panpanunotda. Saanda nga impangag ti saok wenno ti paglintegak, ngem ketdi, linaksidda daytoy.”
20 To what purpose does there come to me frankincense from Sheba, and the sweet cane from a far country? Your burnt offerings are not acceptable, nor your sacrifices pleasing to me.
Ania ti serbina kaniak daytoy nga insenso a mapupuoran manipud idiay Seba? Wenno dagitoy a nasam-it nga ayamuom manipud iti adayo a daga? Saan a makaay-ayo kaniak dagiti datonyo a maipuor, uray pay dagiti sagutyo.
21 Therefore thus says Jehovah: Behold, I will lay stumbling-blocks before this people, and the fathers and the sons together shall stumble against them. The neighbor and his friend shall perish.
Isu a kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, 'Kitaem, dandaniakon a mangikabil iti maysa a pakaitibkolan a bato kadagitoy a tattao. Maitibkoldanto iti daytoy- dagiti amma ken dagiti annak a lallaki. Mapukawto met dagiti agnanaed ken dagiti kaarrubada.
22 Thus says Jehovah, Behold, a people comes from the north country, and a great nation shall be stirred up from the outermost parts of the earth.
Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, ‘Kitaem, adda tattao nga aggapu iti akin-amianan a daga nga umay. Ta nakasaganan nga umay ti dakkel a nasion manipud iti adayo a daga.
23 They lay hold on bow and spear. They are cruel, and have no mercy. Their voice roars like the sea, and they ride upon horses. Each one set in array, as a man to the battle, against thee, O daughter of Zion.
Pidutendanto dagiti pana ken gayangda. Naulpit ken awan asida. Kasla daranudor ti baybay ti ariwawada, ken nakasakayda kadagiti kabalio a nakasagana a kas kadagiti makiranget a lallaki, dakayo nga annak a babbai ti Sion.”'
24 We have heard the report of it. Our hands grow feeble. Anguish has taken hold of us, and pangs as of a woman in travail.
Nangngegmi dagiti damag maipanggep kadakuada. Kimmapsut dagiti imami gapu iti tuok. Nakariknakami ti ut-ot a kas iti ut-ot ti agpaspasikal a babai.
25 Go not forth into the field, nor walk by the way, for the sword of the enemy, and terror, are on every side.
Saankayo a rummuar kadagiti kataltalunan, ken saankayo a magna kadagiti kalsada, ta kampilan ti kabusor ken nakabutbuteng ti adda iti aglawlaw.
26 O daughter of my people, gird thee with sackcloth, and wallow thyself in ashes. Make thee mourning, as for an only son, a most bitter lamentation. For the destroyer shall suddenly come upon us.
Anak a babai dagiti tattaok, agkaweska iti nakersang a lupot ket agtulidka iti katapukan gapu iti pannakaitabon iti bugbugtong nga anak. Agunnoyka iti nasaem a panagunnoy, ta kellaatto nga umay kadatayo ti mangdadael.
27 I have made thee a prover and a fortress among my people, that thou may know and try their way.
”Pinagbalinka, Jeremias, a mangsubok kadagiti tattaok a kas maysa a manggugor iti landok, isu a sukimaten ken subokemto dagiti wagasda.
28 They are all grievous revolters, going about with slanders. They are brass and iron. They all of them deal corruptly.
Isuda amin ket kasukiran kadagiti tattao, a mangparpardaya kadagiti dadduma. Isuda amin ket gambang ken landok, nga agtigtignay a sidadangkes.
29 The bellows blow fiercely, the lead is consumed of the fire. In vain do they go on refining, for the wicked are not plucked away.
Napigsa ti yuboyuban tapno maparubruban ti apuy a mangguggugor kadakuada; mapupuoran ti buli iti darang. Agtultuloy ti pananggugor kadagitoy, ngem awan serserbina, gapu ta saan a naikkat ti kinadakes.
30 Waste silver, men shall call them, because Jehovah has rejected them.
Maawagandanto a naibelleng a pirak, ta imbelleng ida ni Yahweh.”
