Isaiah 46
1 Bel is bent down, Nebo is falling; their images are on the beasts and on the cattle: the things which you took about have become a weight to the tired beast.
Si Bel ay nagpapatirapa, sa Nebo ay yumuyukod; ang kanilang mga diosdiosan ay pasan sa ibabaw ng mga hayop, at sa ibabaw ng mga baka: ang mga bagay na inyong daladalang inilibot ay mabigat na pasan sa pagod na hayop.
2 They are bent down, they are falling together: they were not able to keep their images safe, but they themselves have been taken prisoner.
Sila'y yumuyukod, sila'y nangagpapatirapang magkakasama; hindi nila maiwasan ang pasan, kundi sila ma'y napapasok sa pagkabihag.
3 Give ear to me, O family of Jacob, and all the rest of the people of Israel, who have been supported by me from their birth, and have been my care from their earliest days:
Inyong dinggin ako, Oh sangbahayan ni Jacob, at lahat na nalabi sa sangbahayan ni Israel, na kinalong ko mula sa tiyan, na dala mula sa bahay-bata:
4 Even when you are old I will be the same, and when you are grey-haired I will take care of you: I will still be responsible for what I made; yes, I will take you and keep you safe.
At hanggang sa katandaan ay ako nga, at hanggang sa magka uban ay dadalhin kita; aking ginawa, at aking dadalhin; oo, aking dadalhin, at aking ililigtas.
5 Who in your eyes is my equal? or what comparison will you make with me?
Kanino ninyo ako itutulad, at ipaparis, at iwawangis ako, upang kami ay magkagaya?
6 As for those who take gold out of a bag, and put silver in the scales, they give payment to a gold-worker, to make it into a god; they go down on their faces and give it worship.
Sila'y dumudukot ng maraming ginto sa supot, at tumitimbang ng pilak sa timbangan, sila'y nagsisiupa ng panday-ginto, at kaniyang ginagawang dios; sila'y nangagpapatirapa, oo, sila'y nagsisisamba.
7 They put him on their backs, and take him up, and put him in his fixed place, from which he may not be moved; if a man gives a cry for help to him, he is unable to give an answer, or get him out of his trouble.
Pinapasan nila siya sa balikat, dinadala nila siya, at inilalagay siya sa kaniyang dako, at siya'y nakatayo; mula sa kaniyang dako ay hindi siya makikilos: oo, may dadaing sa kaniya, gayon ma'y hindi siya makasasagot, o makapagliligtas man sa kaniya sa kaniyang kabagabagan.
8 Keep this in mind and be shamed; let it come back to your memory, you sinners.
Inyong alalahanin ito, at mangagpakalalake kayo: isaisip ninyo uli, Oh ninyong mga mananalangsang.
9 Let the things which are past come to your memory: for I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is no one like me;
Inyong alalahanin ang mga dating bagay ng una: sapagka't ako'y Dios, at walang iba liban sa akin; ako'y Dios, at walang gaya ko;
10 Making clear from the first what is to come, and from past times the things which have not so far come about; saying, My purpose is fixed, and I will do all my pleasure;
Na nagpapahayag ng wakas mula sa pasimula, at mula nang mga unang panahon, ng mga bagay na hindi pa nangyayari; na nagsasabi, Ang payo ko ay mananayo, at gagawin ko ang aking buong kaligayahan:
11 Sending for a bird of strong flight from the east, the man of my purpose from a far country; I have said it, and I will give effect to it; the thing designed by me will certainly be done.
Na tumatawag ng ibong mangdadagit mula sa silanganan, ng taong gumagawa ng aking payo mula sa malayong lupain; oo, aking sinalita, akin namang papangyayarihin; aking, pinanukala, akin namang gagawin.
12 Give ear to me, you feeble-hearted, who have no faith in my righteousness:
Inyong dinggin ako, ninyong may mapagmatigas na loob; na malayo sa katuwiran:
13 My righteousness is near, it is not far off; salvation will come quickly; and I will make Zion free, and give Israel my glory.
Aking inilalapit ang aking katuwiran, hindi maglalaon at ang aking pagliligtas ay hindi magluluwat: at aking ilalagay ang kaligtasan sa Sion na ukol sa Israel na aking kaluwalhatian.
