Isaiah 9
1 Nevertheless, there will be no more gloom for those in distress. In the past He humbled the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, but in the future He will honor the Way of the Sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the nations:
Maikkatto ti saem nga adda kenkuana nga agsagsagaba. Iti naglabas a tiempo, pinabainanna ti daga ti Zabulun ken ti daga ti Naftali, ngem iti masangoanan a tiempo, pagbalinennanto daytoy a nadayag, ti dalan a mapan iti baybay, iti ballasiw ti Karayan Jordan, Galilea dagiti nasion.
2 The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of the shadow of death, a light has dawned.
Dagiti tattao nga agbibiag iti kinasipnget ket nakakita iti naindaklan a lawag; dagiti nagnanaed idi iti daga ti aniniwan ni patay, rinanniagan ida ti lawag.
3 You have enlarged the nation and increased its joy. The people rejoice before You as they rejoice at harvest time, as men rejoice in dividing the plunder.
Pinaadumon ti nasion, ad-adda pay a pinarag-om ida; agragragsakda iti sangoanam a kas karagsak iti tiempo ti panagapit, a kas iti panagrag-o dagiti tattao no bingayenda dagiti sinamsamda.
4 For as in the day of Midian You have shattered the yoke of their burden, the bar across their shoulders, and the rod of their oppressor.
Ta ti sangol ti dadagsenna, ti biga nga adda iti abagana, ti sarukod ti mangidaddadanes kenkuana, tinukkolmo a kas iti aldaw dagiti taga-Midia.
5 For every trampling boot of battle and every garment rolled in blood will be burned as fuel for the fire.
Ta tunggal botas a mangbadbaddek iti pagrarangetan ken dagiti kawes a nadaraan ket mapuoranto, maisungrodto iti apuy.
6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given, and the government will be upon His shoulders. And He will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Ta naipasngay kadatayo ti maysa nga ubing, naited kadatayo ti maysa nga anak a lalaki; ket maipabaklayto kenkuana ti panagturay; ken mapanagananto isuna iti Nakaskasdaaw a Mammagbaga, Mannakabalin a Dios, Agnanayon nga Ama, Prinsipe ti Kappia.
7 Of the increase of His government and peace there will be no end. He will reign on the throne of David and over his kingdom, to establish and sustain it with justice and righteousness from that time and forevermore. The zeal of the LORD of Hosts will accomplish this.
Awanto iti panagpatingga iti panagdur-as ti panagturayna ken iti kappia, iti panagturayna iti trono ni David ken iti pagarianna, tapno ibangonna daytoy ken pagtalinaedenna daytoy babaen iti hustisia ken kinalinteg manipud iti daytoy a tiempo ken iti agnanayon. Aramidento daytoy ti kinaregta ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin.
8 The Lord has sent a message against Jacob, and it has fallen upon Israel.
Nangipatulod ni Apo iti sao a maibusor kenni Jacob, ket natnag daytoy iti Israel.
9 All the people will know it— Ephraim and the dwellers of Samaria. With pride and arrogance of heart they will say:
Maammoanto dagiti amin a tattao, uray ti Efraim ken dagiti agnanaed iti Samaria, nga agkunkuna a sipapalangguad ken addaan napasindayaw a puso,
10 “The bricks have fallen, but we will rebuild with finished stone; the sycamores have been felled, but we will replace them with cedars.”
“Nadadaelen dagiti ladrilyo ngem ibangonminto manen babaen iti natikapan a bato; napukanen dagiti sikamoro ngem sukatanminto dagitoy kadagiti sedro.”
11 The LORD has raised up the foes of Rezin against him and joined his enemies together.
Ngarud, tumakderto ni Yahweh a maibusor kenkuana, ni Rezin a kabusorna, ket tignayennanto dagiti kabusorna,
12 Aram from the east and Philistia from the west have devoured Israel with open mouths. Despite all this, His anger is not turned away; His hand is still upraised.
dagiti Arameo iti daya ken dagiti Filisteo iti laud. Nakangangadanto a mangalun-on iti Israel. Ta gapu iti pungtotna, saanto nga agsardeng ni Yahweh ngem nakalayatto latta ti imana tapno mangdusa.
13 But the people did not return to Him who struck them; they did not seek the LORD of Hosts.
Ngem saanto latta nga agsubli dagiti tattao kenkuana a nangkabil kadakuada wenno saanda a biruken ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin.
14 So the LORD will cut off Israel’s head and tail, both palm branch and reed in a single day.
Putdento ngarud ni Yahweh ti ulo ken ti ipus ti Israel, sanga ti palma ken runo, iti maysa nga aldaw.
15 The head is the elder and honorable man, and the tail is the prophet who teaches lies.
Ti pangulo ken ti natakneng a lalaki ket isuda dagiti ulo; ken ti profeta nga agisursuro iti inuulbod ket ti ipus.
16 For those who guide this people mislead them, and those they mislead are swallowed up.
Dagiti mangidadaulo kadagiti tattao ket iyaw-awanda ida ken naalun-on dagiti indauloanda a tattao.
17 Therefore the Lord takes no pleasure in their young men; He has no compassion on their fatherless and widows. For every one of them is godless and wicked, and every mouth speaks folly. Despite all this, His anger is not turned away; His hand is still upraised.
Saanto ngarud a maragsakan ti Apo kadagiti agtutuboda, kasta met a saanna a kaasian dagiti ulila iti ama ken dagiti balo, agsipud ta awan dios ti tunggal maysa ken agar-aramidda iti dakes, ken agsasao kadagiti minamaag ti tunggal bibig. Ngem gapu amin kadagitoy, saan nga maawan ti pungtot ni Yahweh ket nakalayatto latta ti imana a mangdusa.
18 For wickedness burns like a fire that consumes the thorns and briers and kindles the forest thickets which roll upward in billows of smoke.
Mangur-uram ti kinadangkes a kas iti apuy; uramenna dagiti siit ken sisiitan a ruot; uramenna pay ti napuskol a kabakiran nga uray la umasimbuyok a napuskol nga asok.
19 By the wrath of the LORD of Hosts the land is scorched, and the people are fuel for the fire. No man even spares his brother.
Gapu iti nakaro a pungtot ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin, mauram ti daga, ket kasla sungrod iti apuy dagiti tattao. Awan iti tao a mangispal iti kabsatna.
20 They carve out what is on the right, but they are still hungry; they eat what is on the left, but they are still not satisfied. Each one devours the flesh of his own offspring.
Mangiwadanto iti karne kadagiti kannawan nga imada ngem mabisindanto latta; kanendanto ti karne ti kannigid nga imada ngem saandanto a mapnek. Kanento pay ti tunggal maysa ti lasag ti takyagna.
21 Manasseh devours Ephraim, and Ephraim Manasseh; together they turn against Judah. Despite all this, His anger is not turned away; His hand is still upraised.
Alun-onento ti Manases ti Efraim, ket alun-onento met ti Efraim ti Manases; ket agkaduadanto a mangraut iti Juda. Laksidto amin kadagitoy, saanto nga agbaaw ti pungtot ni Yahweh, ngem nakalayatto latta ti imana tapno mangdusa.
