< Jeremiah 9 >

1 Oh that my head were waters, and my eyes a fountain of tears, that I might weep day and night for the slain of the daughter of my people!
No makapaadda laeng koma ti ulok iti danum, ken agbalin dagiti matak a burayok dagiti lulua! Ta kayatko koma nga agsangit iti aldaw ken rabii gapu kadagiti adda iti anak a babai dagiti tattaok, a napapatay.
2 Oh that I had in the wilderness a lodging-place of wayfaring men, that I might leave my people, and go from them! For they are all adulterers, an assembly of treacherous men.
No adda laeng koma iti mangted kaniak iti lugar a pagianan dagiti agdaldaliasat idiay let-ang, a mabalinko a papanan tapno panawak dagiti tattaok. No mabalinko laeng koma ida a panawan, agsipud ta mannakikamalalada amin, bunggoy dagiti mangliliput!
3 And they bend their tongue-their bow-for falsehood, and they have grown strong in the land, but not for truth. For they proceed from evil to evil, and they do not know me, says Jehovah.
Imbaga ni Yahweh, “Agibagbagada kadagiti palso a banbanag babaen kadagiti dilada, nga isu dagiti manangallilaw a baida, ngem saanda a nabileg iti kinapudno iti rabaw ti daga. Agtultuloy ti panagtignayda iti dinadangkes. Saandak nga am-ammo.”
4 Take ye heed each one of his neighbor, and trust ye not in any brother, for every brother will utterly supplant, and every neighbor will go about with slanders.
Tunggal maysa kadakayo, agannadkayo iti kaarrubayo ken saankayo nga agtalek iti siasinoman a kabsat. Ta tunggal kabsat ket maysa a manangallilaw ken tunggal kaarruba ket mamarpardaya.
5 And they will deceive each one his neighbor, and will not speak the truth. They have taught their tongue to speak lies. They weary themselves to commit iniquity.
Laisen ti tunggal lalaki ti kaarrubana ken saan nga agsao iti pudno. Mangisuro dagiti dilada kadagiti makaallilaw a banbanag. Nabannogda manipud iti panagaramid iti nakaro a basol.
6 Thy habitation is in the midst of deceit. Through deceit they refuse to know me, says Jehovah.
Agbibiagka iti tengnga ti panangallilaw; iti panangallilawda ket agkedkedda a mangbigbig kaniak— kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.”
7 Therefore thus says Jehovah of hosts: Behold, I will melt them, and try them, for how else should I do, because of the daughter of my people?
Isu a kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin amin, “Kitaem, dandanikon ida a suboken. Sukimatek ida. Kasano pay ti rumbeng a panagtignayko para kadagiti annak a babai dagiti tattaok?
8 Their tongue is a deadly arrow; it speaks deceit. He speaks peaceably to his neighbor with his mouth, but in his heart he lies wait for him.
Dagiti dilada ket kasla natiradan a pana; saan a pudno dagiti ibagbagada. Kadagiti ngiwatda ket iwaragawagda ti kappia kadagiti kaarrubada, ngem kadagiti pusoda ket padpadaananda ida.
9 Shall I not visit them for these things? says Jehovah. Shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?
Saan kadi a rumbeng a dusaek ida gapu kadagitoy a banbanag— kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh— ken saan kadi a rumbeng a balsek ti nasion a kas iti daytoy?
10 For the mountains I will take up a weeping and wailing, and for the pastures of the wilderness a lamentation, because they are burned up, so that none passes through, nor can men hear the voice of the cattle. Both the birds of the heavens and the beasts have fled; they are gone.
Agkantaak iti kanta a panagladingit ken panagdung-aw para kadagiti banbantay, ken maikantanto ti kanta a pangdung-aw para kadagiti pagaraban. Ta napuoran dagitoy isu nga awan iti mabalin a lumasat kadagitoy. Saandanto a mangngeg ti emmak ti aniaman a baka. Pimmanaw amin dagiti billit iti tangatang ken dagiti ayup.
11 And I will make Jerusalem heaps, a dwelling-place of jackals. And I will make the cities of Judah a desolation, without inhabitant.
Isu a pagbalinekto ti Jerusalem a gabsuon iti pannakadadael, a pagnaedan dagiti atap nga aso. Pagbalinek dagiti siudad ti Juda a nadadael a lugar nga awan iti agnanaed.
12 Who is the wise man, who may understand this, and he to whom the mouth of Jehovah has spoken, that he may declare it? Why has the land perished and burned up like a wilderness, so that none passes through?
Siasino ti masirib a tao a makaawat iti daytoy? Ania ti iwaragawag kenkuana ti ngiwat ni Yahweh tapno mabalinna nga ipadamag daytoy? Apay a nadadael ti daga? Nadadael daytoy a kas iti let-ang, nga awan iti siasinoman a mabalin a lumasat iti daytoy.
13 And Jehovah says, Because they have forsaken my law which I set before them, and have not obeyed my voice, nor walked in it,
Kuna ni Yahweh, “Daytoy ket gapu ta tinallikudanda dagiti lintegko nga intedko a tungpalenda, gapu ta saanda a dumngeg iti timekko wenno agbiag babaen iti daytoy.
14 but have walked after the stubbornness of their own heart, and after the Baalim, which their fathers taught them.
Daytoy ket gapu ta nagbiagda a sinurotda dagiti nasukir a pusoda ken nagdayawda kadagiti Baal a kas insuro kadakuada dagiti ammada nga aramidenda.
15 Therefore thus says Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will feed them, even this people, with wormwood, and give them water of gall to drink.
Isu a kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin amin a Dios ti Israel, 'Kitaem, dandanikon pakanen dagitoy a tattao iti ajenjo ken painumen iti nasabidongan a danum.
16 I will scatter them also among the nations, whom neither they nor their fathers have known. And I will send the sword after them, till I have consumed them.
Kalpasanna, iwaraskonto ida kadagiti nasion a saanda nga ammo, saanda nga ammo ken saan met nga ammo dagiti kapuonanda. Mangibaonakto iti kampilan a mangkamat kadakuada agingga a madadaelko ida a naan-anay.”
17 Thus says Jehovah of hosts, Consider ye, and call for the mourning women, that they may come, and send for the skilful women, that they may come.
Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin amin, “Panunotenyo ti maipapan iti daytoy: Mangayabkayo kadagiti kumakanta iti pangdung-aw; paumayenyo ida. Mangibaonkayo iti mapan mangayab kadagiti babbai a nalaing nga agdung-aw; paumayenyo ida.
18 And let them make haste, and take up a wailing for us, that our eyes may run down with tears, and our eyelids gush out with waters.
Apuraenyo ida ket agkantada iti naladingit a kanta kadatayo, tapno agtedted dagiti lua kadagiti matatayo ken agayus ti danum kadagiti kalub iti matatayo.
19 For a voice of wailing is heard out of Zion, How we are ruined! We are greatly confounded, because we have forsaken the land, because they have cast down our dwellings.
Ta ti ikkis ti panagdung-aw ket mangngeg idiay Zion, 'No kasano a nadadaeltayo. Naibabaintayo iti napalalo, ta pinanawantayo ti daga agsipud ta rinebbada dagiti babbalaytayo.'
20 Yet hear the word of Jehovah, O ye women, and let your ear receive the word of his mouth, and teach your daughters wailing, and each one her neighbor lamentation.
Isu a dakayo a babbai, denggenyo ti sao ni Yahweh; ipangagyo dagiti mensahe nga aggapu iti ngiwatna. Kalpasanna, suroanyo dagiti annakyo a babbai iti naladingit a kanta, ken pangdung-aw a kanta iti tunggal kaarruba a babai.
21 For death has come up into our windows. It has entered into our palaces, to cut off the sons from outside, the young men from the streets.
Ta simrek ti patay kadagiti tawatayo; umuneg daytoy kadagiti palasiotayo. Dadaelenna daytoy dagiti ubbing iti ruar, ken dagiti agtutubo kadagiti kalkalsada ti siudad.
22 Speak, Thus says Jehovah: The dead bodies of men shall fall as dung upon the open field, and as the handful after the harvestman, and none shall gather.
Ipakaammom daytoy, 'Kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh— dagiti bangkay dagiti lallaki ket maiwara a kasla rugit kadagiti tay-ak, ken kasla garami a nabati kalpasan dagiti agan-ani, ket awanto ti siasinoman a mangurnong kadakuada.'”
23 Thus says Jehovah: Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, nor let the mighty man glory in his might. Let not the rich man glory in his riches,
Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, “Saan koma ipannakkel ti nasirib a tao ti kinasiribna, wenno ti mannakigubat ti bilegna. Saan koma ipannakkel ti nabaknang a tao iti kinabaknangna.
24 but let him who boasts boast in this, that he has understanding, and knows me, that I am Jehovah who exercises loving kindness, justice, and righteousness, in the earth. For in these things I delight, says Jehovah.
Ta no ipannakkel ti maysa a tao iti aniaman a banag, daytoy koma ti ipannakkelna, ti pannakaaddana iti kinasaririt ken pannakaammo kaniak. Ta siak ni Yahweh, nga agtigtignay nga addaan iti kinapudno iti tulag, hustisia ken kinalinteg iti daga. Ta daytoy dagiti pakaragsakak— kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.”
25 Behold, the days come, says Jehovah, that I will punish all those who are circumcised in their uncircumcision:
“Kitaem, umadanin dagiti aldaw— kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh— inton dusaek amin dagiti nakugit nga iti laeng bagida.
26 Egypt, and Judah, and Edom, and the sons of Ammon, and Moab, and all who have the corners of their hair cut off, who dwell in the wilderness. For all the nations are uncircumcised, and all the house of Israel are uncircumcised in heart.
Dusaekto ti Egipto ken ti Juda, ti Edom, dagiti tattao ti Ammon, ti Moab, ken dagiti amin a tattao a mangpukpukis kadagiti buokda, nga agnanaed idiay disierto. Ta amin dagitoy a nasion ket saan a nakugit, ken amin dagiti balay ti Israel ket addaan iti saan a nakugit a puso.”
