< Jeremiah 12 >

1 Righteous are You, O LORD, when I plead before You. Yet about Your judgments I wish to contend with You: Why does the way of the wicked prosper? Why do all the faithless live at ease?
Nalintegka, O Yahweh, tunggal adda iyegko kenka a saan a pagkikinnaawatan. Pudno a rumbeng nga ibagak kenka ti rasonko nga agriri: Apay nga agballigi dagiti wagas dagiti nadangkes? Naballigi dagiti amin a tattao a saan a napudno.
2 You planted them, and they have taken root. They have grown and produced fruit. You are ever on their lips, but far from their hearts.
Inmulam ida ket nagramutda. Agtultuloy ti panagbungbungada. Asidegka kadakuada kadagiti ngiwatda, ngem adayoka kadagiti pusoda.
3 But You know me, O LORD; You see me and test my heart toward You. Drag away the wicked like sheep to the slaughter and set them apart for the day of carnage.
Ngem Sika a mismo O Yahweh, am-ammonak. Nakitanakon ken nasukimatmon ti pusok. Iguyodmo ida a kasla karnero a mapan iti pagpartian. Ilasinmo ida para iti aldaw ti pannakapapatay.
4 How long will the land mourn and the grass of every field be withered? Because of the evil of its residents, the animals and birds have been swept away, for the people have said, “He cannot see what our end will be.”
Kasano pay kabayag ti panagladladingit ti daga, ken ti panaglaylay dagiti mula iti tunggal talon gapu iti kinadangkes dagiti agnanaed iti daytoy? Naibusen dagiti narungsot nga ayup ken dagiti billit. Kinapudnona, kuna dagiti tattao, “Saan nga ammo ti Dios ti mapasamakto kadatayo.”
5 “If you have raced with men on foot and they have worn you out, how can you compete with horses? If you stumble in a peaceful land, how will you do in the thickets of the Jordan?
Kinuna ni Yahweh, “Ta no sika, Jeremias, ket nagtarayka a nakikuyog kadagiti magmagna a suldado, ket binannogdaka, kasano ka ngarud a makilumba kadagiti kabalio? No maitublakka iti nawaya ken natalged nga away, kasanonto ngarud no addaka iti kasamekan iti igid ti Jordan?
6 Even your brothers— your own father’s household— even they have betrayed you; even they have cried aloud against you. Do not trust them, though they speak well of you.
Ta uray dagiti kabsatmo ken ti pamilia ti amam ket liniputandaka ket uray dala inwaragawag ti panangilaksidda kenka. Saanka nga agtalek kadakuada, uray no nasayaat dagiti ibagbagada kenka.
7 I have forsaken My house; I have abandoned My inheritance. I have given the love of My life into the hands of her enemies.
Pinanawakon ti balayko; binaybay-akon ti tawidko. Intedkon dagiti patpatgek a tattaok kadagiti ima dagiti kabusorna.
8 My inheritance has become to Me like a lion in the forest. She has roared against Me; therefore I hate her.
Nagbalin ti tawidko a kasla leon iti kasamekan kaniak; bumusbusor isuna kaniak babaen iti bukodna a timek, isu a kagurak isuna.
9 Is not My inheritance to Me like a speckled bird of prey with other birds of prey circling against her? Go, gather all the beasts of the field; bring them to devour her.
Kasla atap nga aso ti napateg a sanikuak, ken agtayabtayab dagiti billit a mangmangan iti padada nga ayup iti ngatwen ti ulona. Mapankayo, ummongenyo dagiti amin a sibibiag a parsua kadagiti tay-ak, ket iyegyo ditoy tapno kanenda ida.
10 Many shepherds have destroyed My vineyard; they have trampled My plot of ground. They have turned My pleasant field into a desolate wasteland.
Dinadael ti adu nga agipaspastor ti kaubasak. Binaddebaddekanda ti entero a bingayko a daga, pinagbalinda a let-ang ti napintas a bingayko, maysa a langalang. Pinagbalinda isuna a langalang. Nagladingitak gapu kenkuana; langalang isuna.
11 They have made it a desolation; desolate before Me, it mourns. All the land is laid waste, but no man takes it to heart.
Nagbalinen a langalang ti entero a daga, ta awan ti tao a mangaywan iti daytoy.
12 Over all the barren heights in the wilderness the destroyers have come, for the sword of the LORD devours from one end of the earth to the other. No flesh has peace.
Dimteng dagiti manangdadael a maibusor kadagiti amin nga ungaong a lugar idiay let-ang, ta agdakdakiwas ti kampilan ni Yahweh manipud iti maysa a pungto ti daga agingga iti sabali a pungto ti daga. Awan iti kinatalged iti daga iti aniaman a sibibiag a parsua.
13 They have sown wheat but harvested thorns. They have exhausted themselves to no avail. Bear the shame of your harvest because of the fierce anger of the LORD.”
Nagmulada iti trigo ngem nagapitda kadagiti nasiit a mula. Nabannogda iti panagtrabaho ngem awan iti nagunggonada. Isu nga agbainkayo iti nagunggunayo gapu iti pungtot ni Yahweh.”
14 This is what the LORD says: “As for all My evil neighbors who attack the inheritance that I bequeathed to My people Israel, I am about to uproot them from their land, and I will uproot the house of Judah from among them.
Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh maibusor kadagiti amin a kaarrubak, dagiti nadangkes a nangdadael iti sanikua nga impatawidko kadagiti tattaok nga Israelita, “Kitaem, Siakto ti mangparut kadakuada manipud iti bukodda a daga, ken parutekto ti balay ti Juda iti nagtetengngaanda.
15 But after I have uprooted them, I will once again have compassion on them and return each one to his inheritance and to his land.
Ket kalpasan ti panangparutko kadagitoy a nasion, mapasamakto a kaasiakto ida ken isublik ida; isublikto ida- tunggal tao iti tawidna ken iti dagana.
16 And if they will diligently learn the ways of My people and swear by My name, saying, ‘As surely as the LORD lives’—just as they once taught My people to swear by Baal—then they will be established among My people.
Mapasamakto a no adalen a naimbag dagidiay a nasion dagiti wagas dagiti tattaok, nga agsapatada iti naganko a kunaenda, 'Iti nagan ni Yahweh nga adda iti agnanayon!' a kas iti insuroda kadagiti tattaok a panagsapatada kenni Baal, ket makipagnaeddanto kadagiti tattaok.
17 But if they will not obey, then I will uproot that nation; I will uproot it and destroy it, declares the LORD.”
Ngem no adda iti saan a dumngeg, parutekto ngarud dayta a nasion. Siguradonto a maparut ken madadael daytoy- daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh.”
