Isaiah 7
1 Ahaz was the son of Jotham and grandson of Uzziah. During the time that Ahaz was the king of Judah, King Rezin of Syria and King Pekah of Israel marched [with their armies] to attack Jerusalem. But they could not conquer it.
Kadagidi aldaw ni Ahaz a putot ni Jotam a putot ni Uzzias, nga ari ti Juda, simmang-at da Rezin nga ari ti Aram ken ni Peka a putot ni Remalias nga ari ti Israel idiay Jerusalem a manggubat iti daytoy, ngem saanda a maparmek daytoy.
2 [But before they attacked], everyone in the palace heard a report that the armies of Syria and Israel were [now] (allies/joined [to attack Jerusalem)]. So Ahaz and the people over whom he ruled were extremely afraid; they were shaking from fear like trees shake in a windstorm.
Naipakaammo iti balay ni David a nakikadua ti Aram iti Efraim. Kasta unay ti butengna, ken uray dagiti tattaona ket uray la agpigerger gapu iti buteng, kasla da la kaykayo iti kabakiran a ginunggon ti angin.
3 Then Yahweh said to me, “Take your son Shear-Jashub, and go to talk with [King] Ahaz. He is at the end of the (aqueduct/water channel) that brings water into the upper reservoir, near the road to the place where women wash clothes.
Ket kinuna ni Yahweh kenni Isaias, “Rummuarka a kaduam ti putotmo lalaki a ni Sear Jasub ket inkayo sabten ni Ahaz iti murdong ti kanal iti akinngato a pagurnongan ti danum, iti dalan a mapan iti tay-ak ti Aglablaba iti lupot.
4 Tell Ahaz to stop worrying [DOU]. Tell him that he does not need to be afraid of those two kings, Rezin and Pekah. They are very angry [with Judah], but they are [unable to harm his country any more than] completely burned-out coals [can harm him].
Ibagam kenkuana, 'Agannadka, saanka nga agdanag, dika agbuteng kadagitoy dua a kayo nga umas-asok, iti nalaus a pungtot ni Rezin, ni Aram, ken ni Peka a putot ni Remalias.
5 Yes, they are planning to attack this land and saying,
Nagpanggep iti kinadakes a maibusor kenka da Aram, Efraim, ken Rezin a putot ni Remalias; kinunada,
6 ‘We will attack Judah and conquer it. Then we will appoint Tabeel’s son to be the king of Judah.’
“Rautentayo ti Juda ken butbutngentayo daytoy, serkentayo daytyoy ket isaadtayo sadiay ti putot ni Tabeel kas aritayo.”
7 But this is what Yahweh, the Lord, says: ‘It will not happen; they will not [conquer Jerusalem]!
Kinuna ni Apo a Yahweh, “Saan a mapasamak daytoy; saan a maaramid daytoy,
8 The capital of Syria is Damascus, but Damascus is ruled [only] by its [unimportant/insignificant] king king Rezin. And as for Israel, within 65 years it will be conquered and completely destroyed.
gapu ta ti ulo ti Aram ket ti Damasco, ken ti ulo ti Damasco ket ni Rezin. Iti las-ud iti 65 a tawen, maparmekto ti Efraim ket saandanton a maibilang a maysa a nasion.
9 Israel’s capital is Samaria, and Samaria is ruled only by its [insignificant/unimportant] king king Pekah. [So you do not need to be afraid of those two countries]! [But you must trust me, because] if you do not trust me fully, you will be defeated.’”
Ti ulo ti Efraim ket ti Samaria, ken ti ulo ti Samaria ket ti putot ni Remalias. No saan nga agtalinaed a natibker ti pammatiyo, sigurado a saankayonto nga agtalinaed a natalged.”'”
10 [Later], Yahweh gave [me another message to tell to] King Ahaz.
Nagsao manen ti Apo kenni Ahaz,
11 [He said to tell him], “Request me, Yahweh your God, to do something that will enable you to be sure [that I will help/protect you]. What you request can be [from a place that is] as high as the sky or as low as the place where the dead people are.” (Sheol h7585)
“Dumawatka iti pagilasinan kenni Yahweh a Diosmo; dawatem kenkuana daytoy iti kaunggan wenno iti kangatoan.” (Sheol h7585)
12 But [when I told that to the king, he refused]. He said, “[No], I will not request Yahweh to do something to prove [that he will help/protect us]!”
Ngem kinuna ni Ahaz, “Saanak a dumawat ken saanko a padasen ni Yahweh.”
13 Then I said [to him], “You people who are descendants of King David, listen! You are causing me to be tired of being patient. Are you also going to cause my God to stop being patient with you [RHQ]?
Isu a simmungbat ni Isaias, “Dumngegka, O balay ni David. Saan kadi nga umanay kenka ti panangpadasmo iti kinaanus ti tattao? Masapul kadi pay a padasem ti kinaanus ti Diosko?
14 Yahweh himself will do something for you [to prove that he will help/protect you]. Listen to this: A young woman will become pregnant and give birth to a son. She will name him Immanuel, [which means ‘God is with us’].
Ngarud, mismo a ti Apo ti mangted kenka iti pagilasinan: kitaem, agsikogto ti maysa a babai, agpasngayto iti maysa a lalaki, ket mapanagananto iti Immanuel.
15 And by the time that child is old enough to eat curds/yogurt and honey, he will be able to reject what is evil and choose what is good.
Manganto isuna iti gatas ken diro inton ammonan nga agkedked nga agaramid iti dakes ken pilienna ti kinaimbag.
16 And before that child is old enough to do that, the lands of the two kings that you(sg) are very (afraid of/worried about) will be deserted.
Ta sakbay a maammoan ti ubing ti agkedked nga agaramid iti dakes ken pilienna ti kinaimbag, agbalinto a langalang ti daga dagiti dua nga ari a pagbutbutngam.
17 [But then] Yahweh will cause you and your family and your entire nation to experience [terrible disasters]. Those disasters will be worse than any disasters that have occurred since the country of Israel separated from Judah. Yahweh will cause [the army of] the king of Assyria to attack you!”
Iyegto ni Yahweh kenka ken kadagiti tattaom ken iti balay ti amam dagiti aldaw nga awan kapadana sipud pay idi simmina ti Efraim iti Juda—iyegnanto a maibusor kenka ti Ari ti Asiria.
18 At that time, [it will be as though] Yahweh will whistle to summon the army from the south of Egypt as well as the army of Assyria. They will [come and surround your country like] [MET] flies and bees.
Iti dayta a tempo, paswitanto ni Yahweh ti maysa a ngilaw manipud kadagiti adayo a karayan ti Egipto, ken maysa nga alimbubuyog manipud iti daga ti Asiria.
19 They will all come and settle/live [everywhere]—in the narrow valleys and caves in the rock cliffs, on land where there are thornbushes as well as on the fertile land.
Umaydanto amin agnaed kadagiti amin a tanap, kadagiti rangkis a batbato, kadagiti siit-siitan a mulmula, ken kadagiti amin a pagpaaraban.
20 At that time Yahweh will hire the king of Assyria to come [with his army] from east of the [Euphrates] River. [They will get rid of everything in your land—the crops and the people. They will destroy everything thoroughly]; it will be like [MET] a barber shaving not only a man’s hair but his beard and the hair on his legs.
Iti dayta a tiempo, kuskusanto ti Apo babaen iti labahas nga inabanganna iti ballasiw ti Karayan Eufrates—ti Ari ti Asiria— kuskosannanto ti ulom, dagiti buok kadagiti luppom; kuskosennanto pay ti barbasmo.
21 When that happens, a farmer will be able to have only one cow and two goats/sheep.
Iti dayta nga aldaw, mangibatinto ti maysa a tao iti maysa a sibibiag nga urbon a baka ken dua a karnero,
22 [However], those animals will give plenty of milk, with the result that the farmer will have curds/yogurt to eat. And [because there will not be many people left] in the land, all the people who remain there will have plenty of milk and honey.
ket gapu iti aglaplapusanan a gatas nga itedda, manganto isuna iti gatas, gapu ta manganto iti gatas ken diro dagiti amin a nabati iti daga.
23 Now there are many areas where there are vineyards that are worth 1,000 pieces of silver, but at that time there will be only briers and thorns [DOU] in those fields.
Iti dayta a tiempo, tunggal disso nga adda iti sangaribo a kaubasan nga aggatad iti sangaribo a pirak a sekel, ket awanto ti mabati no di laeng sisiitan a mula ken kalkalunay.
24 There will be only briers and thorns in the entire land, [and wild animals], with the result that men will take their bows and arrows and go there [to hunt and kill animals].
Mapanto dagiti tattao sadiay nga aganup babaen kadagiti panada, gapu ta agbalinto a sisiitan ken kakalkalunayan dayta a daga.
25 No one will go to where there previously were gardens on fertile hillsides, because briers and thorns will cover those hillsides. They will be areas where [only a few] cattle and sheep and goats wander around [searching for something to eat].
Umadayodanto kadagiti turturod a nasukay iti gabyon, gapu iti panagbuteng kadagiti siit ken kalkalunay; ngem agbalinto daytoy a pagaraban dagiti baka ken karnero.
