Isaiah 31
1 Cursed are those who go down to Egypt for help, and who put their faith in horses; looking to war-carriages for salvation, because of their numbers; and to horsemen, because they are very strong; but they are not looking to the Holy One of Israel, or turning their hearts to the Lord;
Asi pay dagiti sumalog idiay Egipto tapno agpatulong ken dagiti agtalek kadagiti kabalio, ken dagiti agtalek kadagiti karwahe (gapu ta adu dagitoy) ken kadagiti agkabkabalio (gapu ta saan a mabilang dagitoy). Ngem saanda a pakaseknan ti maipapan iti Nasantoan ti Israel, wenno saanda a sapulen ni Yahweh!
2 Though he is wise, and able to send evil, and his purpose will not be changed; but he will go against the house of the evil-doers, and against those to whom they are looking for help.
Ngem nasirib isuna, ket idissuornanto ti didigra ken saannanto a baliwan dagiti saona. Ket busurennanto ti balay ti dakes ken dagiti mangtultulong kadagiti agar-aramid iti basol.
3 For the Egyptians are men, and not God; and their horses are flesh, and not spirit: and when the Lord's hand is stretched out, the helper and he who is helped will come down together.
Ti Egipto ket tao saan ket a Dios, lasag laeng dagiti kabalioda saan ket nga espiritu. Inton igaw-at ni Yahweh ti imana, dagiti mangtultulong ket maitublakto, ken dagiti matultulongan ket matumbanto; agpadada a mapukaw.
4 For the Lord has said to me, As a lion, or a young lion, makes an angry noise over his food, and if a band of herdsmen come out against him, he will not be in fear of their voices, or give up his food for their noise: so the Lord of armies will come down to make war against Mount Zion and its hill.
Kastoy ti kinuna ni Yahweh kaniak, “Kas iti leon, uray ti urbon a leon ket ngerngeranna ti kinemmegna a kanenna, no pukkawan daytoy ti maysa a bunggoy dagiti agpaspastor, saan daytoy nga agbuteng kadagiti timekda, wenno agtaray gapu iti pukkawda; kastanto met ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin inton umulog a makiranget idiay tapaw ti Bantay Sion, iti dayta a turod.
5 Like birds with outstretched wings, so will the Lord of armies be a cover to Jerusalem; he will be a cover and salvation for it, going over it he will keep it from danger.
Kas kadagiti billit a tumaytayab, salaknibanto ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin ti Jerusalem; salakniban ken ispalennanto inton lumabas isuna iti daytoy, ken ikanawana daytoy.
6 Come back to him who has been so deeply sinned against by the children of Israel.
Agsublikayo kenkuana, dakayo a tattao ti Israel a timmallikod kenkuana.
7 For in that day they will all give up their images of silver and of gold, the sin which they made for themselves.
Ta iti dayta nga aldaw, tunggal maysa ket ibellengnanto dagiti didiosenna a pirak ken balitok a sibabasol nga inaramid dagiti imayo.
8 Then the Assyrian will come down by the sword, but not of man; the sword, not of men, will be the cause of his destruction: and he will go in flight from the sword, and his young men will be put to forced work.
Mapasagto ti Asiria babaen iti kampilan; maysa a kampilan a saan nga inaramid ti tao ti mangdadael iti daytoy. Aglibasto daytoy manipud iti kampilan, ket mapilitto dagiti agtutubo daytoy nga agtrabaho iti nadagsen.
9 And his rock will come to nothing because of fear, and his chiefs will go in flight from the flag, says the Lord, whose fire is in Zion, and his altar in Jerusalem.
Mapukawdanto ti amin a talekda gapu iti buteng, ket agbutengto dagiti prisipena iti imatang ti bandera ni Yahweh.” — Daytoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh, a ti apuyna ket adda idiay Sion ken ti urnona ket adda idiay Jerusalem.
