< Isaiah 43 >

1 Now this is what the LORD says— He who created you, O Jacob, and He who formed you, O Israel: “Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name; you are Mine!
Ngem ita, kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, a namarsua kenka Jacob, ken nangsukog kenka Israel: “Saanka nga agbuteng, gapu ta sinubotka; Inawaganka babaen iti naganmo, kukuaka.
2 When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you go through the rivers, they will not overwhelm you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be scorched; the flames will not set you ablaze.
No lumasatka iti danum addaakto kenka; ken iti panagballasiwmo kadagiti karayan, saankanto a malipus. Inton magnaka iti apuy saankanto a mauram, wenno madangran iti apuy.
3 For I am the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior; I give Egypt for your ransom, Cush and Seba in your place.
Ta siak ni Yahweh a Diosmo, a Nasantoan a Dios ti Israel, a Mangisalakanmo. Intedko ti Egipto kas pannakasubbotmo, ti Etiopia ken Seba kas kasukatmo.
4 Because you are precious and honored in My sight, and because I love you, I will give men in exchange for you and nations in place of your life.
Yantangay ta napateg ken naisangsangayanka iti imatangko, ay-ayatenka; isu nga iyawatko dagiti tattao a kas kasukatmo, ken dagiti dadduma a tattao a kas kasukat ti biagmo.
5 Do not be afraid, for I am with you; I will bring your offspring from the east and gather you from the west.
Saanka nga agbuteng, ta addaak kenka; ummongekto dagiti kaputotam manipud iti daya, ken ummongenkayonto manipud itilaud.
6 I will say to the north, ‘Give them up!’ and to the south, ‘Do not hold them back!’ Bring My sons from afar, and My daughters from the ends of the earth—
Ibagakto iti amianan, 'Palubosam ida,' ken iti abagatan, 'Saanmo ida nga igawid;' Iyegmo dagiti annakko a lallaki manipud iti adayo, ken dagiti annakko a babbai manipud kadagiti nasulinek a rehion ti daga,
7 everyone called by My name and created for My glory, whom I have indeed formed and made.”
tunggal maysa a naawagan iti naganko, a pinarsuak a maipaay iti dayagko, a sinukogko, wen, nga inaramidko.
8 Bring out a people who have eyes but are blind, and who have ears but are deaf.
Iruarmo dagiti bulsek a tattao, nga addaan kadagiti mata, ken dagiti tuleng, uray pay addaanda kadagiti lapayag.
9 All the nations gather together and the peoples assemble. Who among them can declare this, and proclaim to us the former things? Let them present their witnesses to vindicate them, so that others may hear and say, “It is true.”
Agguummong amin dagiti nasion, ken agtataripnong dagiti tattao. Adda kadi kadakuada ti nakabael a nangipakaammo iti daytoy ken nakaiwaragawag kadatayo kadagiti mapasamakto iti masakbayan? Bay-anyo nga iyegda dagiti saksida a mangpaneknek a hustoda, bay-anyo a dumngegda ken paneknekanda, ‘Pudno daytoy.'
10 “You are My witnesses,” declares the LORD, “and My servant whom I have chosen, so that you may consider and believe Me and understand that I am He. Before Me no god was formed, and after Me none will come.
Dakayo dagiti saksik,” kuna ni Yahweh, “ken dagiti adipenko a pinilik, tapno iti kasta, maammoandak koma ken patiendak, ken maawatanyo a siak isuna. Sakbay kaniak awan ti dios a naaramid, ken awanto ti sumaruno kaniak.
11 I, yes I, am the LORD, and there is no Savior but Me.
Siak, Siak ni Yahweh, ket awan ti sabali pay a mangisalakan no di siak.
12 I alone decreed and saved and proclaimed— I, and not some foreign god among you. So you are My witnesses,” declares the LORD, “that I am God.
Impakpakaunak, nangisalakanak, ken impakammok, ket awan ti sabali pay a dios kadakayo. Dakayo dagiti saksik,” kuna ni Yahweh, “Siak ti Dios.
13 Even from eternity I am He, and none can deliver out of My hand. When I act, who can reverse it?”
Manipud ita siak isuna, ket awan ti makaisalakan iti siasinoman manipud kadagiti imak. Agtigtignayak, ket adda kadi iti makaisubli iti daytoy?”
14 Thus says the LORD your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: “For your sake, I will send to Babylon and bring them all as fugitives, even the Chaldeans, in the ships in which they rejoice.
Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, ti Mannubotyo, a Nasantoan a Dios ti Israel: “Para kadakayo nangibaonak iti mangdarup iti Babilonia a mamagbalin kadakuada amin nga aglemmelemmeng, a mamagbalin kadagiti rag-o ti Babilonia a kankanta a pangdung-aw.
15 I am the LORD, your Holy One, the Creator of Israel, and your King.”
Siak ni Yahweh, a Nasantoanyo, a Nangparsua iti Israel, ti Ariyo.”
16 Thus says the LORD, who makes a way in the sea and a path through the surging waters,
Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh (a nangilukat iti dalan iti baybay ken pagnaan kadagiti nadawel a danum,
17 who brings out the chariots and horses, the armies and warriors together, to lie down, never to rise again; to be extinguished, snuffed out like a wick:
a nangiturong iti karwahe ken kabalio, iti armada ken iti nabileg unay. Limnedda a sangsangkamaysa; ket saandanto a pulos lummung-aw; napaksiatda, naiddep a kasla apuy ti pabilo.)
18 “Do not call to mind the former things; pay no attention to the things of old.
Saanyo nga amirisen dagiti napasamak iti naglabas, wenno panunoten dagiti banbanag a napasamak iti nabayagen a panawen.
19 Behold, I am about to do something new; even now it is coming. Do you not see it? Indeed, I will make a way in the wilderness and streams in the desert.
Dumngegkayo, mangaramidak iti baro a banag; ita, mapasamaken; saanyo kadi a madmadlaw daytoy? Mangaramidak iti dalan idiay disierto ken pagayusek iti let-ang dagiti danum.
20 The beasts of the field will honor Me, the jackals and the ostriches, because I provide water in the wilderness and rivers in the desert, to give drink to My chosen people.
Dayawendakto dagiti atap nga ayup nga adda kadagiti away, dagiti atap nga aso ken dagiti abestrus, gapu ta mangmangtedak iti danum iti let-ang, ken kadagiti karayan iti disierto, nga inumen dagiti tattao a pinilik,
21 The people I formed for Myself will declare My praise.
dagitoy a tattao nga inaramidko a para kaniak, tapno ipakaamoda koma dagiti pakaidaydayawak.
22 But you have not called on Me, O Jacob, because you have grown weary of Me, O Israel.
Ngem saanka nga immawag kaniak, Jacob; naumaka kaniak Israel.
23 You have not brought Me sheep for burnt offerings, nor honored Me with your sacrifices. I have not burdened you with offerings, nor wearied you with frankincense.
Saanka a nangidatag kaniak iti uray ania kadagiti karnerom a kas daton a maipuor; wenno pinadayawannak koma babaen kadagiti sakripisiom. Saanka a pinadagsenan gapu kadagiti sagut a trigo, wenno binannog gapu kadagiti sagut nga insenso.
24 You have not bought Me sweet cane with your silver, nor satisfied Me with the fat of your sacrifices. But you have burdened Me with your sins; you have wearied Me with your iniquities.
Saannak nga inggatangan iti nabanglo a runo, wenno indaton kaniak ti taba manipud kadagiti ayup a datonmo; ngem ketdi pinadagsenannak kadagiti basbasolmo, binannognak gapu kadagiti dakes nga aramidmo.
25 I, yes I, am He who blots out your transgressions for My own sake and remembers your sins no more.
Siak, wen Siak ti mangik-ikkat kadagiti basbasolmo para met laeng kaniak; ken saankon a pulos a lagipen pay dagiti basbasolmo.
26 Remind Me, let us argue the matter together. State your case, so that you may be vindicated.
Ipalagipmo kaniak no ania dagiti napasamak. Agrikiarta; ibagam dagiti rasonmo, a mangpaneknek nga awan basolmo.
27 Your first father sinned, and your spokesmen rebelled against Me.
Nagbasol ti immuna nga amam, ken sinukirdak dagiti mangidadaulom.
28 So I will disgrace the princes of your sanctuary, and I will devote Jacob to destruction and Israel to reproach.”
Ngarud, tulawakto dagiti nasantoan nga opisial; iyawatkonto ti Jacob iti naan-anay a pannakadadael, ken ti Israel iti nakaro a pannakaibabain.”
