< Isaiah 47 >

1 “Go down and sit in the dust, O Virgin Daughter of Babylon. Sit on the ground without a throne, O Daughter of Chaldea! For you will no longer be called tender or delicate.
Bumabaka ket agtugawka iti tapok, sika a birhen nga anak ti Babilonia; agtugawka iti daga nga awanan iti trono, sika nga anak a babai dagiti Caldeo. Saankan a maawagan a nalibnos ken nalapsat.
2 Take millstones and grind flour; remove your veil; strip off your skirt, bare your thigh, and wade through the streams.
Alaem ti gilingan a bato ket aggilingka iti arina; ikkatem ta dalungdongmo, ussobem ti nagayad a kawesmo, lislisam dagita luppom, ballasiwem dagiti karayan.
3 Your nakedness will be uncovered and your shame will be exposed. I will take vengeance; I will spare no one.”
Maiparangto ti kinalamolamom, wen, makitanto ti pannakaibabainmo: Agibalesak ket awan iti labsak a tao.
4 Our Redeemer—the LORD of Hosts is His name— is the Holy One of Israel.
Ti Mannubbottayo ket Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin ti naganna, ti Nasantoan a Dios ti Israel.
5 “Sit in silence and go into darkness, O Daughter of Chaldea. For you will no longer be called the queen of kingdoms.
Agtugawka a siuulimek ket mapanka iti kinasipnget, anak a babai dagiti Caldeo; ta saankan a maawagan a Reyna dagiti pagarian.
6 I was angry with My people; I profaned My heritage, and I placed them under your control. You showed them no mercy; even on the elderly you laid a most heavy yoke.
Nakaungetak kadagiti tattaok; rinugitak ti tawidko ken inyawatko ida kenka, ngem saanmo ida a kinaasian; sinangolam iti nadagsen unay dagiti lallakay.
7 You said, ‘I will be queen forever.’ You did not take these things to heart or consider their outcome.
Kinunam, “Agturayak iti agnanayon a kas naturay a reyna.” Saanmo nga impapuso dagitoy a banbanag, wenno pinanunot no ania ti pagbanagan dagitoy.
8 So now hear this, O lover of luxury who sits securely, who says to herself, ‘I am, and there is none besides me. I will never be a widow or know the loss of children.’
Ita ngarud denggem daytoy, sika a mangay-ayat iti ragragsak ken sika nga agtugtugaw a sitatalged, sika a mangibagbaga iti pusom, “Agbibiagak, ket awanen ti sabali pay a kas kaniak; saanakto a pulos nga agtugaw a kas balo, wenno saankonto a pulos a mapadasan ti mapukawan kadagiti annak.”
9 These two things will overtake you in a moment, in a single day: loss of children, and widowhood. They will come upon you in full measure, in spite of your many sorceries and the potency of your spells.
Ngem iti apagkanito iti maysa la nga aldaw, mapasamakto kenka dagitoy dua a banag: ti pannakapukaw kadagiti annak ken ti pannakabalo: awanto iti makalapped iti iyuumay dagitoy kenka, uray no ipakatmo iti panagsalamangkam, ken adu a kita iti panaganito ken an-anib.
10 You were secure in your wickedness; you said, ‘No one sees me.’ Your wisdom and knowledge led you astray; you told yourself, ‘I am, and there is none besides me.’
Nagtalekka iti kinadangkesmo; kinunam, “Awan iti makakitkita kaniak;” Iyaw-awannaka ti kinasiribmo ken pannakaammom, ngem kinunam iti pusom, “Agbibiagak, ket awanen ti sabali pay a kas kaniak.”
11 But disaster will come upon you; you will not know how to charm it away. A calamity will befall you that you will be unable to ward off. Devastation will happen to you suddenly and unexpectedly.
Agdissuorto kenka ti didigra; saanmonto a mapasardeng daytoy babaen iti panaganitom. Agdissuorto kenka ti pannakadadael; saanmoto a maliklikan daytoy. Kellaatto nga umay kenka ti didigra a saanmo daytoy a mapakpakadaan.
12 So take your stand with your spells and with your many sorceries, with which you have wearied yourself from your youth. Perhaps you will succeed; perhaps you will inspire terror!
Ipakatmo ti panangsalamangkam ken panaganitom nga inar-aramidmo a sipupudno sipud pay kinaubingmo; bareng no agballigika, bareng no mapapanawmo ti didigra.
13 You are wearied by your many counselors; let them come forward now and save you— your astrologers who observe the stars, who monthly predict your fate.
Nabannogka iti adu a panakiyumanmo; tumakder koma dagidiay a tattao ket isalakandaka—dagiti mangad-adal kadagiti langit ken kadagiti bitbituen, dagidiay mangiparparangarang iti baro a bulan—isalakandaka koma iti mabalin a mapasamak kenka.
14 Surely they are like stubble; the fire will burn them up. They cannot deliver themselves from the power of the flame. There will be no coals to warm them or fire to sit beside.
Kitaem, agbalidanto a kasla garami. Uramento ida ti apuy. Saandanto a maisalakan dagiti bagbagida manipud iti apuy. Awanto beggang a mangpapudot kadakuada ken apuy a paginudoanda!
15 This is what they are to you— those with whom you have labored and traded from youth— each one strays in his own direction; not one of them can save you.
Awanto ti maganabmo kadagidiay a nagbanbannogam, kadagidiay nagtagtagilakoam manipud kinaagtutubom; magsipanawda, tunggal maysa iti dalanna; awanto ti siasinoman a mangisalakan kenka.
