< Deuteronomy 32 >
1 “Listen to me, [all you who are in the] heavens, and [all you who are on the] earth, listen to what I say [MTY].
Dumngegkayo langlangit, ket palubosandak nga agsao. Dumngeg koma ti daga kadagiti sasao ti ngiwatko.
2 I wish/desire that my teaching will fall on you like rain drops or be like dew on the ground, and be like a gentle rain on the young plants, like showers on the grass.
Agtedted koma a kas ti tudo ti panangisurok, bumaba koma ti balikasko a kas ti linnaaw, kas ti arimukamok iti naganus a ruot, ken kas arbis kadagiti mulmula.
3 I will praise Yahweh [MTY]. And [all you people should] tell others that our God is very great.
Ta iwaragawagko ti nagan ni Yahweh, ken ipaduyakyakko ti kinadakkel ti Diostayo.
4 He is like a rock [MET] [under which we are protected]; [everything] that he does is perfect and completely just/fair [DOU]. He always does what he says that he will do; he never does anything that is wrong.
Ti Bato, awan ti pakapilawan ti aramidna; ta nalinteg dagiti amin a dalanna. Isuna ti napudno a Dios nga awan ti kinadakes kenkuana. Nalinteg isuna ken awan idumdumana.
5 “But [you Israeli people] have been very unfaithful to him; because of your sins, you no longer [deserve to] be his children. You are extremely wicked and deceitful [DOU].
Nagtignayda a sidadakes a maibusor kenkuana. Saanna ida nga annak. Daytoy ti pakaibabainanda.
6 You foolish and senseless [DOU] people, (is this the way that you should repay Yahweh [for all that he has done for you]?/this is certainly not the way that you should repay Yahweh [for all that he has done for you].) [RHQ] He is your father; he created you [RHQ]; he caused you to become a nation.
Nadangkes ken nakilloda a henerasion. Gunggonaanyo kadi ni Yahweh iti kastoy a wagas, dakayo a maag ken awan kaririknana a tattao? Saan kadi nga isuna ti amayo, ti nangparsua kadakayo? Inaramid ken insaadnakayo.
7 “Think about [what happened] long ago; consider what happened to your ancestors. Ask your parents, and they will inform you; ask the older people, and they will tell you.
Lagipenyo dagiti nagkakauna nga al-aldaw, panunotenyo dagiti taw-tawen dagiti adun a naglabas a kaputotan. Saludsodenyo iti amayo, ket ipakitana kadakayo, kadagiti panglakayenyo ket ibagadanto kadakayo.
8 When God, who is greater than any other god, long ago divided the people into groups, he assigned to the nations their land. He determined where each people-group should live and (assigned to/chose for) each people-group a god/angel.
Idi inted ti Kangatoan Unay kadagiti nasion ti tawidda— idi biningayna dagiti amin a sangkataoan, ket intudingna dagiti beddeng dagiti tattao, a kas panangisaadna met ti bilang dagiti diosda.
9 But Yahweh decided that we would be his people; he chose [us, the descendants of] Jacob, to belong to him.
Ta ti paset ni Yahweh ket dagiti tattaona; ni Jacob ti pinilina nga agtawid.
10 “He saw [our ancestors] when they were in a desert, wandering in a land (that was desolate/where no people lived). He protected them and took care of them, as every person takes good care of his own eyes. [SIM, IDM]
Nasarakanna isuna idiay desierto a daga, ken idiay awan matataona ken agung-ungor a let-ang; sinalakniban ken inaywananna isuna, binantayanna isuna a kasla iti bukodna a mata.
11 [Yahweh protected his people] just like an eagle encourages its babies [to fly] and flutters over them [MET], spreading its wings and catching them [if they start to fall].
Kas agila a mangbanbantay iti umokna ken mangay-aywan kadagiti piyekna, inyukrad ni Yahweh dagiti payakna ket innalana ida, ket inawitna ida babaen kadagiti payakna.
12 Yahweh was the only one who led them; no other foreign god helped him.
Ni Yahweh laeng ti nangidalan kenkuana; awan iti ganggannaet a dios a kaduana.
13 “[After they entered the land that Yahweh promised to give to them], Yahweh enabled them to rule the hilly areas; they ate the crops that grew in the fields. They found honey in the rocks, and their olive trees [MTY] grew [even] in stony ground.
Pinagdaliasatna isuna kadagiti nangato a daga, ket pinakanna isuna kadagiti bunga ti kataltalonan; pinasupsopna isuna iti diro manipud iti bato, ken lana manipud iti natangken a bato.
14 The cows gave them plenty of curds/yogurt, the goats gave them plenty of milk, they had well-fed sheep and cattle, they had very good wheat, and they made delicious wine from their grapes.
Nangan isuna iti mantikilia manipud kadagiti baka ken imminom iti gatas manipud ti arban, addaan taba dagiti karnero, kalakian a karnero ti Bashan ken dagiti kalding, babaen iti kasasayaatan a trigo— ket imminomka iti aglablabutab nga arak a naaramid kadagiti tubbog ti ubas.
15 “The Israeli people became rich and prosperous, but then they rebelled against God; they abandoned him, the one who created them, the one who powerfully saves them.
Ngem limmukmeg ken kimmugtar ni Jesurum, napnoan ti taba, nalukmeg, ken nabaneg. Pinanawannan ti Dios a nangaramid kenkuana, ket linaksidna ti Bato iti pannakaisalakanna.
16 So he abandoned them because they started to worship other/strange gods. Because of their worshiping disgusting idols, he became angry.
Pinagimonda ni Yahweh babaen kadagiti gangannaet a diosda, ken pinagpungtotda isuna babaen kadagiti makarimon a didiosenda.
17 They offered sacrifices to gods who were [really] demons, gods that their ancestors had never known; they offered sacrifices to gods that they had recently found out about, gods whom your ancestors had never revered.
Nagidatonda kadagiti demonio, a saan a Dios—dagiti dios a saanda nga am-ammo, dagiti dios a kaano laeng a nagparang, dagiti dios a saan a kinabuteng dagiti ammayo.
18 They forgot [the true] God, the one who protects them [MET], the one who created them and caused them to live.
Pinanawanyo ti Bato, a nagbalin nga amayo, ken linipatyo ti Dios a nangipasngay kadakayo.
19 “When Yahweh saw that [they had abandoned him], he became angry, so he rejected [the Israeli people, who are like] his sons and daughters.
Nakita ni Yahweh daytoy ket linaksidna ida, gapu ta pinagpungtot unay dagiti annakna a lalaki ken dagiti annakna a babai.
20 He said, ‘They are very wicked/stubborn people, very unfaithful; so I will no longer help them, and then I will watch and see what happens to them.
“Ilemmengkonto ti rupak kadakuada,” kinunana, “ket kitaekto iti pagbanaganda; ta managdakdakesda a henerasion, annak a saan a napudno.
21 They made me very angry because of their worshiping idols, which are not really gods; they have caused me to be [jealous [MET] because I want them to worship only me]. So now, in order to cause them to become jealous, I will send [to attack them an army of] a nation of worthless and foolish people.
Pinagimondak babaen kadagiti awan a dios ken pinagpungtotdak babaen kadagiti awan serserbina a didiosenda. Paapalak ida babaen kadagiti saan a tao, pagpungtotek ida babaen kadagiti nasion nga awan pannakaawatna.
22 I will be very angry, and I will destroy them like a fire that will burn on the earth and all the way down to the place where dead people are [MET]; that fire will destroy the earth and everything that grows on it, and it will even burn what is down under the mountains. (Sheol )
Ta simged ti apuy babaen ti pungtotko, ket mapupuoran ti kababaan a sheol; al-alun-onenna daytoy ti daga ken dagiti apitna; mangikabkabil ti apuy kadagiti sakaanan dagiti banbantay. (Sheol )
23 I will cause them to experience many disasters; [they will feel as though] [MET] I am shooting all my arrows at them.
Igabsuonkonto dagiti didigra kadakuada; Ibiatkonto amin dagiti baik kadakuada;
24 They will die because of being hungry and because of having hot fevers and because of terrible diseases; I will send wild animals to attack [MTY] them, and poisonous snakes to bite [MTY] them.
Madadaeldanto babaen iti panagbisin ken alun-onento ti makauram a pudot ken nasaem a pannakadadael; ibaonkonto kadakuada dagiti ngipen dagiti narurungsot nga ayup, nga addaan iti sabidong dagiti banbanag nga agkaradap iti tapok.
25 Outside [their houses, their enemies] will kill them [MTY] with swords, and in their homes, [their enemies will cause] them to be terrified. Their enemies will kill young men and young women, and they will kill infants and old people with gray hair.
Iti ruar, mangpaladingit ti kampilan, ken kadagiti siled, mangpaladingit ti panagbuteng. Dadaelento daytoy dagiti agtutubo a lalaki ken birhen, ti agsussuso a maladaga, ken ti tao nga agubanen.
26 I wanted to scatter the Israeli people to distant countries in order that no one would ever remember them.
Kinunak nga iwarasko ida iti adayo, nga aramidek nga awanto ti makalagip kadakuada kadagiti sangkataoan.
27 But [if I did that], their enemies would wrongly boast that they were the ones who had [gotten rid of my people]; they would say, “We [SYN] are the ones who defeated them; it was not Yahweh who has done all these things.”’
No saanak koma a nagbuteng iti pammutbuteng dagiti kabusor, ken sibibiddut a nangukom dagiti kabusorda, ket kunaenda, ‘Naitag-ay dagiti imami,’ inaramidko koma amin daytoy.
28 You Israelis are a nation of people who do not have any sense. None of you is wise.
Ta maysa a nasion ti Israel nga awanan ti kinasirib, ken awan ti pannakaawat kadakuada.
29 If you were wise, you would understand [why you would be punished]; you would have realized what was going to happen to you.
O, a nasisiribda, a naawatanda daytoy, a mapanunotda iti umay a gasatda!
30 [You would have realized] why 1,000 [of your soldiers] would be defeated by only one [of the enemy soldiers], and why two of your enemies would chase away 10,000 [Israeli soldiers]. [You would realize that this would happen] only if God, the one who always defended you [MET], had allowed your enemies to defeat you, because he had abandoned you.
Kasano a kamaten ti maysa ti sangaribu, ken patarayen ti dua ti sangapulo a ribu, malaksid no inlako ida ti Batoda, ken binaybay-an ida ni Yahweh?
31 Your enemies know that their gods are not powerful like Yahweh, our God, [so their gods could not have defeated us Israelis].
Ta ti bato dagiti kabusortayo ket saan a kasla iti Batotayo, nga uray dagiti kabusortayo ket inawatda.
32 Your enemies are like [MET] grapevines planted near [the ruins of] Sodom and Gomorrah [cities]; the grapes from those vines are bitter and poisonous;
Ta ti lanutda ket naggapu iti lanut iti Sodoma ken manipud kadagiti kataltalonan ti Gomora; dagiti ubasda ket ubas ti sabidong; ken napait dagiti raayda.
33 the wine [from those grapes] is like the poison of snakes [DOU].
Ti arakda ket ti sabidong dagiti uleg ken ti napeggad a gita ti uleg.
34 [“Yahweh says], ‘I know [RHQ] [what I have planned to do to the Israeli people and to their enemies], and those plans are so secure [that it as though he locked them up] [MET].
Saan kadi a sililimed a sinalimetmetak daytoy a panggep, naidulin a kadua dagiti kinabaknangko?
35 I am the one who will get revenge and pay those enemies back for what they have done [to my people], at the right time for them to be punished [IDM]; they will soon experience disasters, and I will punish/destroy them quickly.’
Kukuak iti panagibales, ken panangdusa, iti tiempo a maikaglis dagiti sakada; ta asidegen ti aldaw ti didigra kadakuada, ken agap apura a mapasamak dagiti banbanag nga umay kadakuada.”
36 “But Yahweh will see that you who are truly his people, who (are innocent/have not done things that are wrong), and he will be merciful to you. And he will see that you are helpless, and that there are very few of you, slaves or free people, who are still alive.
Ta ni Yahweh ti mangngeddeng kadagiti tattaona, ket kaasiannanto dagiti adipenna. Makitananto nga awanen ti pannakabalinda, ket awan ti agbati nga uray maysa, tagabo man wenno nawaya a tao.
37 Then Yahweh will ask his people, ‘Where are the gods that you thought would protect you [MET]?
Ket kunananto, “Sadino ti ayan dagiti diosda, ti bato a pagkamanganda? —
38 You gave to those gods the best parts of the animals that you sacrificed, and you poured out wine for them to drink. So, they should begin to help you; they should be the ones who will protect you!
Dagiti dios a nangan kadagiti taba dagiti datonda ken imminon kadagiti arak nga indatonda? Bangonenyo koma ida ket tulongandakayo; isuda koma ti agbalin a salaknibyo.
39 “But now you will realize that I, only I, am God; there is no other god who is [a real] god. I am the one who can kill people and who can cause people to live; I can wound people, and I can heal people, and there is no one who can prevent me from doing those things.
Kitaenyo ita a Siak, uray Siak ti Dios, ket awanen ti dios malaksid kaniak; mangpapatayak, ken mangpabbiagak; mangsugatak, ken mangagasak, ket awan ti siasinoman a makaisalakan kadakayo manipud iti bilegko.
40 I raise my hand toward heaven and solemnly declare that just as sure as I live forever,
Ta ingatok ti imak iti langit ket ibagak, ‘Kas agbiagak iti agnanayon, agtignayak.
41 that when I sharpen my sword, as I [SYN] prepare to punish people, I will get revenge on my enemies; I will pay back those who hate me.
Inton asaek ti sumilsilap a kampilanko, inton rugian ti imak ti mangiyeg ti hustisia, ipaaykonto ti panangibales kadagiti kabusorko, ket pagbayadekto amin dagiti manggura kaniak.
42 I will kill all [of my enemies] with a sword; it will be as though I had arrows that will be covered with their blood. I will kill [MTY] all those whom I capture and cut off their leaders’ heads.’
Painumekto dagiti baik iti dara, ket alun-onen ti kampilanko ti lasag nga addaan iti dara dagiti napapatay ken dagiti natiliw, ken manipud kadagiti ulo dagiti mangidadaulo kadagiti kabusor.”'
43 “You people of all nations, you as well as his people should praise Yahweh, because Yahweh gets revenge on those who kill the people who serve him; and he cleanses his people’s land which has become defiled because of their sins.”
Agrag-okayo, dakayo a nasion, a kaduayo dagiti tattao ti Dios, ta ibalesnanto ti dara dagiti adipenna, ipaaynanto ti panangibales kadagiti kabusorna, ket subbotennanto ti dagana, para kadagiti tattaona.
44 Joshua and Moses/I recited the words of that song while the Israeli people were listening.
Immay ni Moses ket kinantana dagiti amin a sasao iti daytoy a kanta kadagiti lapayag dagiti tattao, isuna, ken ni Josue nga anak ni Nun.
45 When they/we finished reciting to the Israeli people the words of this song,
Ket lineppas ni Moises a kinanta amin dagitoy a sasao iti entero nga Israel.
46 Moses/I said, “Never forget all these commands that I have been giving you today. Teach these laws to your children, in order that they will faithfully obey all of them.
Kinunana kadakuada, “Panunotenyo dagiti amin a sasao a pinaneknekak kadakayo ita nga aldaw, tapno mabalinyo nga ibilin kadagiti annakyo a salimetmetanda dagitoy, dagiti amin a sasao iti daytoy a linteg.
47 These instructions are very important [LIT]. If [you obey] them, you will live a long time in the land that you are about to cross the Jordan [River] to occupy.”
Ta napateg unay daytoy a banag kadakayo, gapu ta daytoy ti biagyo, ket babaen iti daytoy a banag, paatiddugenyo dagiti al-aldawyo iti daga a papananyo iti ballasiw ti Jordan a tagikuaenyo.”
48 On that same day, Yahweh said to Moses/me,
Nagsao ni Yahweh kenni Moises iti dayta met laeng nga aldaw, ket kinunana,
49 “Go to the Abarim Mountain range [here] in the Moab region, across from Jericho. Climb Nebo Mountain, and look [toward the west] to see Canaan land, the land that I am about to give to the Israeli people.
“Sumang-atka iti masakupan dagiti bantay Abarim, iti ngato ti Bantay Nebo, nga adda iti daga ti Moab, a ballasiw ti Jerico. Matan-awam ti daga ti Canaan, nga it-itedko kadagiti tattao ti Israel a kas sanikuada.
50 You will die on that mountain [EUP, DOU], like your [older] brother Aaron died on Hor Mountain.
Mataykanto iti sumang-atam a bantay ket maitiponka kadagiti tattaom, kas iti pannakatay ni Aaron a padam nga Israelita idiay Bantay Hor ket nakitipon kadagiti tattaona.
51 You will die because both of you disobeyed me in the presence of the Israeli people, when you all were at Meribah Springs near Kadesh [town] in the Zin Desert. You did not honor and respect me in the presence of the Israeli people in the way that I deserve because I am God.
Mapasamakto daytoy gapu ta saanka a napudno kaniak kadagiti tattao ti Israel kadagiti danum ti Meriba iti Kadesh, iti let-ang ti Sin; gapu ta saannak a dinayaw ken rinaem kadagiti tattao ti Israel.
52 [When you are on that mountain where I told you to go], you will see in the distance in front of you the land that I am about to give to the Israeli people, but you will not enter it.”
Ta makitam ti daga iti sangoanam, ngem saankanto a mapan idiay, iti daga nga it-itedko kadagiti tattao ti Israel.”
