< Isaiah 40 >

1 Comfort ye, comfort ye my people, saith your God.
“Liwliwaenyo, liwliwaenyo dagiti tattaok,” kuna ti Diosyo.
2 Speak ye comfortably to Jerusalem, and cry unto her, that her warfare is accomplished, that her iniquity is pardoned; that she hath received of the LORD’S hand double for all her sins.
Agsaokayo a naalumanay iti Jerusalem; ken ipakaammoyo kenkuana a naglippasen ti pannakigubatna, a napakawanen dagiti nagbasolanna, ta inawatnan manipud iti ima ni Yahweh iti namindua a daras ti supapak iti amin a basbasolna.
3 The voice of one that crieth, Prepare ye in the wilderness the way of the LORD, make straight in the desert a highway for our God.
Maysa a timek ti agpukpukaw, “Iti let-ang, isaganayo ti dalan ni Yahweh; iti Araba, palintegenyo ti dalan nga agpaay iti Diostayo.”
4 Every valley shall be exalted, and every mountain and hill shall be made low: and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough places plain:
Tunggal tanap ket ngumatonto, ken tunggal bantay ken turod ket mapatad; ken dagiti likka-likkaong ken lasonglasong a daga ket mapatadto
5 and the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.
ken ti dayag ni Yahweh ket maiparangarangto, ken sangsangkamaysanto a makita daytoy dagiti amin a tattao; ta insao daytoy ti ngiwat ni Yahweh.
6 The voice of one saying, Cry. And one said, What shall I cry? All flesh is grass, and all the goodliness thereof is as the flower of the field:
Kuna ti maysa a timek, “Agsangitka.” Simmungbat ti maysa, “Ania ngay ti isangitak?” “Amin a lasag ket kasla ruot, ken ti kinapudnoda iti tulag ket kasla sabong iti tay-ak.
7 The grass withereth, the flower fadeth; because the breath of the LORD bloweth upon it: surely the people is grass.
Magango dagiti ruot ken malaylay ti sabong no agpuyopoy ti anges ni Yahweh iti daytoy; pudno unay a ti sangkataoan ket kasla ruot.
8 The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever.
Magango ti ruot, malaylay ti sabong ngem ti sao ti Dios ket mataginayon.”
9 O thou that tellest good tidings to Zion, get thee up into the high mountain: O thou that tellest good tidings to Jerusalem, lift up thy voice with strength; lift it up, be not afraid; say unto the cities of Judah, Behold, your God!
Sumang-atka iti tapaw ti nangato a bantay, O Sion a taga-iwaragawag iti naimbag a damag, ket ipukkawmo ti timekmo a buyogam ti pigsa; iwaragawagmo ti naimbag a damag iti Jerusalem. Ipukkawmo; saanka nga agbuteng. Ibagam kadagiti siudad ti Juda, “Adtoy ti Diosyo!”
10 Behold, the Lord GOD will come as a mighty one, and his arm shall rule for him: behold, his reward is with him, and his recompence before him.
Kitaem, um-ummay ti Apo a ni Yahweh a kas maysa a naballigi a mannakigubat, ken ti nabileg nga imana ti mangiturturay para kenkuana. Kitaem, adda kenkuana iti gungunana, ket umun-una kenkuana ti pagsupapakna.
11 He shall feed his flock like a shepherd, he shall gather the lambs in his arm, and carry them in his bosom, [and] shall gently lead those that give suck.
Taraonanna ti arbanna a kas iti maysa nga agpapastor, ummongenna iti takkiagna dagiti urbon a karnero, ken awitenna ida iti asideg ti pusona, ken naannadnanto nga idauloan dagiti kabaian a karnero nga apaspasuso kadagiti urbonda.
12 Who hath measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, and meted out heaven with the span, and comprehended the dust of the earth in a measure, and weighed the mountains in scales, and the hills in a balance?
Siasino ti nangsukat iti danum iti dakulap ti imana, nangrukod iti kinalawa ti tangatang, nangummong iti tapuk ti lubong iti maysa a basket, nangtimbang kadagiti banbantay wenno turturod iti pagtimbangan?
13 Who hath directed the spirit of the LORD, or being his counsellor hath taught him?
Siasino ti makaammo iti panunot ni Yahweh, wenno nangisuro kenkuana a kas mammagbagana?
14 With whom took he counsel, and who instructed him, and taught him in the path of judgment, and taught him knowledge, and shewed to him the way of understanding?
Adda kadin ti nangbalakad kenkuana? Siasino ti nangisuro kenkuana iti husto a wagas a mangaramid kadagiti banbanag, ken nangisuro kenkuana iti pannakaammo, wenno nangipakita kenkuana iti dalan ti pannakaawat?
15 Behold, the nations are as a drop of a bucket, and are counted as the small dust of the balance: behold, he taketh up the isles as a very little thing.
Kitaenyo, dagiti nasion ket maiyarig iti maysa a tedted iti timba, ken naibilang a kasla tapok iti pagtimbangan; kitaenyo, timtimbangenna dagiti puro a kasla mulit.
16 And Lebanon is not sufficient to burn, nor the beasts thereof sufficient for a burnt offering.
Saan nga umdas a pagsungrod ti Lebanon, wenno dagiti atap nga ayup dagitoy ket saan nga umdas para iti daton a mapuoran.
17 All the nations are as nothing before him; they are counted to him less than nothing, and vanity.
Amin a nasion ket saan nga umdas iti sangoananna; imbilangna ida nga awan serserbida.
18 To whom then will ye liken God? or what likeness will ye compare unto him?
Siasino ngarud ti pangipadisanyo iti Dios? Iti ania a didiosen ti pangipadaanyo kenkuana?
19 The graven image, a workman melted [it], and the goldsmith spreadeth it over with gold, and casteth [for it] silver chains.
Iti maysa a didiosen! Sukogen daytoy ti maysa a dumidisenio; pakalupkopan daytoy ti mammanday iti balitok ken imontaranna iti pirak a kawar.
20 He that is too impoverished for [such] an oblation chooseth a tree that will not rot; he seeketh unto him a cunning workman to set up a graven image, that shall not be moved.
Tapno mangidaton, mangpili isuna iti kayo a saan a bakbaken; agbirok isuna iti kumikitikit nga agaramid iti didiosen a saan a matuang.
21 Have ye not known? have ye not heard? hath it not been told you from the beginning? have ye not understood from the foundations of the earth?
Saanyo kadi a naammoan? Saanyo kadi a nangngeg? Saan kadi a naibaga kadakayo manipud idi punganay? Saanyo kadi a naawatan manipud iti pannaka-ipundasion iti lubong?
22 [It is] he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in:
Isuna ti agtugtugaw iti ngatoen ti daga; ken dagiti agtataeng ket kasla kadagiti dudon iti sangoananna. Iyuk-ukradna dagiti langit a kasla kurtina ken iwarwarasna dagitoy a kas tolda a pagyanan.
23 that bringeth princes to nothing; he maketh the judges of the earth as vanity.
Pabassitenna dagiti mangiturturay ken ar-aramidenna ida nga awan pategda ditoy daga.
24 Yea, they have not been planted; yea, they have not been sown; yea, their stock hath not taken root in the earth: moreover he bloweth upon them, and they wither, and the whirlwind taketh them away as stubble.
Kitaenyo, saanda unay a naimula; kitaenyo, saanda unay a naiwaris; kitaenyo, saanda unay a rimmamot iti daga, sakbay pay a puyotanna ida, ket aglaylaydan, ken itayab ida ti pul-oy ti angin a kasla arutang.
25 To whom then will ye liken me, that I should be equal [to him]? saith the Holy One.
“Siasino ngarud ti pangipadisanyo kaniak, siasino ti kalanglangak?” kuna ti Nasantoan a Dios.
26 Lift up your eyes on high, and see who hath created these, that bringeth out their host by number: he calleth them all by name; by the greatness of his might, and for that he is strong in power, not one is lacking.
Tumangadkayo iti tangatang! Siasino ti nangparsua amin kadagitoy a bitbituen? Tinudinganna dagitoy kadagiti puestoda ken aw-awaganna amin ida iti naganda. Babaen iti kinatan-ok ti bilegna ken babaen iti pigsa ti pannakabalinna, awan ti uray maysa a mapukpukaw.
27 Why sayest thou, O Jacob, and speakest, O Israel, My way is hid from the LORD, and my judgment is passed away from my God?
Jacob, apay a kunaem, ken Israel, apay nga ipaduyakyakmo, “Nailinged kenni Yahweh ti dalanko, ken awan ti pakaseknan ti Diosko maipapan iti panangikalintegak?”
28 Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard? the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary; there is no searching of his understanding.
Saanyo kadi a naammoan? Saanyo kadi a nangngeg? Ti agnanayon a Dios a ni Yahweh, a Namarsua iti pagpatinggaan ti daga ket saan a mabannog wenno agkapsut; awan ti pagpatinggaan ti pannakaawatna.
29 He giveth power to the faint; and to him that hath no might he increaseth strength.
Pappapigsaenna dagiti nabannog; ken pabpabaroenna ti regget dagiti nakapuy.
30 Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall:
Uray dagiti agtutubo ket mabannog ken agkapuy, ken dagiti ubbing ket maitibkol ken maitublak;
31 but they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; they shall walk, and not faint.
ngem dagiti agur-uray kenni Yahweh ket pabaroenda ti pigsada; agtayabda nga addaan iti payyak a kasla kadagiti agila; agtaraydanto ket saanda a mabannog; magnadanto ket saanda a matalimudaw.
