< Isaiah 41 >

1 Keep silence before me, islands; and let the peoples renew [their] strength: let them come near; then let them speak: let us draw near together to judgment.
Dumgngegkayo kaniak a siuulimek, dakayo a dagdaga iti adayo; pabaroen koma dagiti nasion ti pigsada; umasidegda koma ket agsaoda; agiinnasidegtayo tapno aglilinnawagtayo.
2 Who raised up from the east him whom righteousness calleth to its foot? He gave the nations before him, and caused him to have dominion over kings; he gave them as dust to his sword, as driven stubble to his bow.
Siasino ti nangsugsog iti maysa a taga-daya? Siasino ti nangayab kenkuana tapno agserbi kenkuana? Impaimana dagiti nasion kenkuana ken nangted kenkuana iti pannakabael a mangparmek kadagiti ar-ari; ar-aramidenna ida a kasla tapuk babaen iti kampilanna, a kasla naitayab a punget iti baina.
3 He pursued them, he passed on in safety, by a way he had never come with his feet.
Kamkamatenna ida ken lumablabas a saan a maan-ano, iti napartak a pagnaan a saan pay a nasagid dagiti sakana.
4 Who hath wrought and done [it], calling the generations from the beginning? I, Jehovah, the first; and with the last, I [am] HE.
Siasino ti nangaramid ken nangtungpal kadagitoy nga ar-aramid? Siasino ti nangayab kadagiti kaputotan manipud idi punganay? Siak a ni Yahweh ti umuna ken ti maudi, siak daydiay.
5 The isles saw [it], and feared; the ends of the earth trembled: they drew near, and came.
Nakita dagiti purpuro ket nagbutengda; nagpigerger dagiti pagpatinggaan ti daga; umasidegda ken umayda.
6 They helped every one his neighbour, and [each] said to his brother, Take courage.
Tultulongan ti tunggal maysa ti kaarubana, ken ibagada iti tunggal maysa, 'Bumilegka.'
7 And the artizan encouraged the founder, he that smootheth [with] the hammer him that smiteth on the anvil, saying of the soldering, It is good; and he fasteneth it with nails, that it be not moved.
Isu a parparegtaen ti karpintero ti mammanday, ken parparegtaen ti agmarmartilyo ti agtaltaltal ti pasnaan, a kunana iti aglinlinang, ‘Nagsayaat ti pannakalinangna.’ Inlansada daytoy tapno saanto daytoy a matnag.
8 But thou, Israel, my servant, Jacob, whom I have chosen, the seed of Abraham, my friend
Ngem sika Israel nga adipenko, Jacob a pinilik, nga anak ni Abraham a gayyemko,
9 — thou whom I have taken from the ends of the earth, and called from the extremities thereof, and to whom I said, Thou art my servant, I have chosen thee and not rejected thee,
sika nga isubsublik manipud kadagiti murdong ti daga, sika nga inawagak manipud kadagiti adayo a luglugar, ken ti nangibagaak, 'Sika ti adipenko;' Pinilika ken saanka a linaksid.
10 — Fear not, for I [am] with thee; be not dismayed, for I [am] thy God: I will strengthen thee, yea, I will help thee, yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.
Saanka nga agbuteng ta addaak kenka. Saanka a madanagan ta siak ti Diosmo. Papigsaenka, tulonganka ken ipangatoka babaen iti kannawan nga ima ti naikari a balligik.
11 Lo, all that are incensed against thee shall be ashamed and confounded; they that strive with thee shall be as nothing, and shall perish.
Kitaenyo, amin a gumurgura kadakayo ket maipababa ken maibabainto; dagiti sumupsuppiat kadakayo ket kasdanto la awan ken mapukawdanto.
12 Thou shalt seek them, and shalt not find them — them that contend with thee; they that war against thee shall be as nothing, and as a thing of nought.
Sapulemto ket saanmo a masapulan dagiti nakisuppiat kenka; dagiti nakigubgubat kenka ket agbalinto a kasla awan, awan kapaypay-anda.
13 For I, Jehovah, thy God, hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee.
Ta siak, ni Yahweh a Diosmo ti mangkibin iti makannawan nga imam, ibagak kenka, 'Saanka nga agbuteng; tulonganka.'
14 Fear not, thou worm Jacob, ye men of Israel; I will help thee, saith Jehovah, and thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel.
Saanka nga agbuteng, Jacob, sika nga igges, ken dakayo a lallaki ti Israel; tulongankayonto” - daytoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh, a Mannubbotmo ken Nasantoan a Dios ti Israel.
15 Behold, I have made of thee a new sharp threshing instrument having double teeth: thou shalt thresh and beat small the mountains, and shalt make the hills as chaff;
“Kitaen, pagbalinenka a kasla natadem a pagtaltag; baro ken dua ti tademna; taltalgemto dagiti banbantay ken rumekem ida; aramidemto a kasla taep dagiti turturod.
16 thou shalt fan them, and the wind shall carry them away, and the whirlwind shall scatter them; and thou shalt rejoice in Jehovah, thou shalt glory in the Holy One of Israel.
Itaepmonto ida, ket itayabto ida ti angin; warawaraento ida ti angin. Agrag-okanto kenni Yahweh, agraokanto iti Nasantoan a Dios ti Israel.
17 The afflicted and the needy seek water, and there is none; their tongue faileth for thirst: I, Jehovah, will answer them, [I], the God of Israel, will not forsake them.
Agbirok iti danum ti maparparigat ken agkasapulan ngem awan a pulos, ken agmaga dagiti dila gapu iti pannakawaw; Siak a ni Yahweh ket sumungbatto kadagiti kararagda; Siak a Dios ti Israel ket saankonto ida a baybay-an.
18 I will open rivers on the bare heights, and fountains in the midst of the valleys; I will make the wilderness into a pool of water, and the dry land into water-springs.
Pagayusekto dagiti waig kadagiti turturod, ken dagiti ubbog iti tengnga dagiti tanap; Pagbalinekto a dan-aw ti danum ti disierto ken ti natikag a daga nga ubbog ti danum.
19 I will give in the wilderness the cedar, acacia, myrtle, and oleaster; I will set in the desert the cypress, pine, and box-tree together;
Iti let-ang, agtubonto ti sedro, ti akasia, ti arayan ken ti kayo ti olibo; pagtuboekto iti disierto ti saleng, ti aruo ken ti parwa.
20 that they may see, and know, and consider, and understand together, that the hand of Jehovah hath done this, and the Holy One of Israel hath created it.
Aramidekto daytoy tapno makita, mabigbig, ken maawatan dagiti tattao nga inaramid daytoy ti ima ni Yahweh, a pinarsua daytoy ti Nasantoan a Dios ti Israel.
21 Produce your cause, saith Jehovah; bring forward your arguments, saith the King of Jacob.
Ibagayo ti darumyo,” kuna ni Yahweh; 'iparangyo ti kasayaatan a pammaneknekyo nga agpaay kadagiti didiosenyo,” kuna ti Ari ni Jacob.
22 Let them bring them forward, and declare to us what shall happen: shew the former things, what they are, that we may give attention to them, and know the end of them; — or let us hear things to come:
Yegda koma kadakami dagiti bukodda a pammaneknek; paumayenyo ida iti sangoanan ken ipakaammoda kadakami no ania ti mapasamak, tapno maammoanmi a nalaing dagitoy a banbanag. Ibagada koma kadakami dagiti immuna nga impadtoda a pakaammo tapno utobenmi dagitoy ken ammoenmi ti pannakapatungpal dagitoy.
23 declare the things that are to happen hereafter, that we may know that ye are gods; yea, do good, or do evil, that we may be astonished, and behold it together.
Ibagayo dagiti banbanag maipapan iti masakbayan tapno maammoanmi no dioskayo; agaramidkayo iti naimbag wenno dakes tapno agbuteng ken masdaawkami.
24 Behold, ye are less than nothing, and your work is of nought; an abomination is he that chooseth you. ...
Kitaenyo, awan serserbi dagiti didiosenyo ken dagiti aramidyo; ti mangpili kadakayo ket makarimon.
25 I have raised up one from the north, and he shall come, — from the rising of the sun, he who will call upon my name; and he shall come upon princes as on mortar, and as the potter treadeth clay.
Nangpataudak iti maysa a tao manipud iti ammianan ket umay isuna; manipud iti isisingising ti init, inayabak isuna nga umaw-awag iti naganko, ket ibaddeknanto a kasla pitak dagiti mangiturturay, kas iti dumadamili a mangibaddebaddek iti pila.
26 Who hath declared [it] from the beginning, that we may know? and beforetime, that we may say, [It is] right? Indeed, there is none that declareth; no, none that sheweth; no, none that heareth your words.
Siasino ti nangiwaragawag iti daytoy manipud idi punganay, tapno maammoantayo? Ken sakbay a nangrugi ti tiempo tapno maibagatayo, “Husto isuna?” Ngem kinapudnona, awan ti nangipablaak iti daytoy, wen, awan ti nakangngeg nga adda ti aniaman nga imbagayo.
27 The first, [I said] to Zion, Behold, behold them! and to Jerusalem, I will give one that bringeth glad tidings.
Immuna a kinunak iti Sion, “Kitaenyo, adtoydan;” Nangibaonak iti maysa a mangipadamag iti Jerusalem.
28 And I beheld, and there was no man; even among them, — and there was no counsellor, that, when I asked of them, could answer a word.
Idi kimmitaak, awan a pulos, awan ti uray maysa kadakuada a makaited iti nasayaat a pammagbaga, ti makasungbat iti saludsodko.
29 Behold, they are all vanity, their works are nought, their molten images are wind and emptiness.
Kitaenyo, awan serserbida amin ken dagiti ar-aramidda ket awan serserbina; dagiti sinukogda nga imahe ket angin ken kinaubbaw.
