< Isaiah 1 >

1 [I am] Isaiah, the son of Amoz. [Yahweh showed me] visions about Jerusalem and [all the other places in] Judah. He showed me these visions during the years that Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah were kings of Judah.
Ang Panan-awon ni Isaias nga anak nga lalaki ni Amoz, nga nakita niya mahitungod sa Juda ug sa Jerusalem, sa mga adlaw ni Uzia, Jotam, Ahaz, ug Hezekia nga mga hari sa Juda.
2 This is what Yahweh says: “All you [angels in] [APO] heaven and [all you people on] [APO] earth, listen to me! The people that I caused to exist and took care of [DOU] have rebelled against me.
Dungga kalangitan, ug paminaw kalibotan; kay nagsulti si Yahweh: “giatiman ko ug gipadako ang mga katawhan, apan misupak sila batok kanako.
3 Oxen know their owners, and donkeys know who provides food for them, but my Israeli people do not know [me]; they do not realize [that I am the one who takes care of them].”
Nakaila ang baka sa tag-iya niini, ug ang asno sa pasungan sa iyang agalon, apan wala makaila ang Israel, ug wala makasabot ang Israel.”
4 Terrible things will happen to that sinful nation, to those people who are guilty of sinning greatly. They are a group of very evil people, who act very unjustly. They have abandoned Yahweh, the holy one of Israel; they have (abandoned/turned away from) him.
Alaot ang nasod nga makasasala! Ang katawhan nga napuno sa pagkadaotan, kaliwat sa mga nagabuhat ug daotan, mga anak nga nagabuhat ug mahugaw! Gisalikway nila si Yahweh, gitamay nila ang Usa ka Balaan sa Israel, mibiya sila gikan kaniya.
5 Why do you [RHQ] continue to [do things for which] you should be punished? Why do you continue to rebel against Yahweh? [You are like] [MET] someone whose head is badly injured and whose mind is sick/corrupt.
Nganong gibunalan pa man gihapon kamo? Nganong hilabihan man kamo kamasinupakon? Nagmasakiton ang tibuok ulo, naluya ang tibuok kasingkasing.
6 [It is as though] [MET] from the soles/bottoms of your feet to the [tops of your] heads nothing is healthy; there are only open wounds and cuts and sores that have not been cleaned or bandaged, and no [olive] oil has been put on them [to heal them].
Gikan sa lapalapa hangtod sa ulo walay bahin niini nga maayo; apan mga samad lamang, ug mga pangos, ug bag-ong mga samad; nga wala pa naulian, nahinloan, nabugkosan, ni gipahiran ug lana.
7 [It is as though] your country is ruined/desolate; your towns have been burned. Foreigners plunder/steal the crops in your fields while you watch; they destroy everything [that they see].
Nagun-ob ang inyong nasod ug nasunog ang inyong mga siyudad; gun-obon sa mga langyaw diha sa inyong atubangan—ang inyong kaumahan, —biniyaang guba gibuntog sa mga langyaw.
8 The city of Jerusalem has [already] been abandoned, it is like [SIM] a shelter in a vineyard that has been abandoned by the watchmen; it is like [SIM] a watchman’s hut in a field of melons that has been deserted. It is a city surrounded by its enemies who are waiting to attack it.
Mahibilin ang anak nga babaye sa Zion sama sa usa ka payag nga anaa sa parasan, sama sa usa ka silonganan nga anaa sa pipinohan, sama sa usa ka siyudad nga gipalibotan sa kaaway.
9 If the Commander of the armies of angels had not allowed a few of us [his people] to (survive/remain alive), we would have [all] been [destroyed], like [the cities of] Sodom and Gomorrah [were destroyed].
Kung wala nagbilin si Yahweh nga labawng makagagahom ug gamay nga kaliwat alang kanato, mahisama kita sa Sodoma ug Gomora.
10 You [leaders of Judah are as wicked as] the rulers of Sodom were, and you [other people in Jerusalem areas are as wicked as] the people in Gomorrah [were]. Listen to this message from Yahweh, [all of you]!
Dungga ang pulong ni Yahweh, kamong mga pangulo sa Sodoma; paminaw sa balaod sa atong Dios, kamong katawhan sa Gomora:
11 He says, “You continue to bring many sacrifices to me, but I do not [RHQ] want them [because you do not worship me sincerely]! You bring me many offerings to be completely burned [on the altar], [but] I (am tired/do not want any more) of your burning all those offerings, the burning rams and the fat from fat cattle. I am not pleased with the blood of bulls and lambs and goats that [the priest] pours [against the altar].
Miingon si Yahweh “Unsa man ang gidaghanon sa inyong halad nganhi kanako?” “Nakabaton ako ug igong halad nga sinunog nga mga karnero ug gipatambok nga mga mananap; ug dugo sa mga baka, mga nating karnero, o mga kanding nga wala ko gikahimut-an.
12 When you come to my temple to worship me, no one [RHQ] told you to trample on my courtyard while you perform all those rituals.
Sa dihang moabot kamo aron sa pagpakita sa akong atubangan, kinsa man ang nagsugo niini kaninyo, aron sa pagtunob sa akong mga hawanan?
13 Stop bringing to me those offerings, because they are useless [to me]; I am disgusted with the incense that [the priests burn]. And [your feasts to celebrate] the new moon [each month] and your (Sabbath [days]/days of rest) and your [other] festivals— I detest them because of the wicked things [that you do].
Ayaw na pagdala ug mga walay pulos nga halad; usa ka dulomtanan ang insenso alang kanako; ang inyong bag-ong bulan ug ang mga panagtigom sa Adlawng igpapahulay—dili ko maantos kining daotan kaayo nga mga panagtigom.
14 I [SYN] hate [all] your celebrations of each new moon and the [other] festivals that you celebrate each year. They are [like] [MET] a heavy burden that I am tired of carrying.
Gikasilagan ko ang inyong bag-ong mga bulan ug ang inyong pinili nga mga kasaulogan; kabug-aton kini alang kanako; gikapoy ako sa pag-antos kanila.
15 [So], when you lift up your hands when you pray [to me], I will not [even] look at you. Even if you pray [to me very] frequently, I will not listen [to you], [because it is as though] your hands are covered with the blood [of people whom you have killed].
Busa sa dihang ibayaw ninyo ang inyong mga kamot sa pag-ampo, itago ko ang akong mga mata gikan kaninyo; bisan pa ug mag-ampo kamo sa makadaghan, dili ako maminaw; nabulit sa dugo ang inyong mga kamot.
16 Cleanse your inner beings, and become [spiritually] clean! Stop your evil behavior! Stop doing things that are wrong!
Hugasi, hinloi ang inyong kaugalingon, biyai ang daotan ninyong mga binuhatan gikan sa akong panan-aw; hunonga ang pagkadaotan;
17 Learn to do [things that are] good! [Try to] cause people to do what is just. Help people who are (oppressed/treated cruelly). Defend orphans and widows [when people take them to court].”
pagtuon sa pagbuhat ug maayo; pangita ug kaangayan, tul-ira ang pagdaugdaog, hatagi ug kaangayan ang mga ilo, ug labani ang balo.”
18 Yahweh says, “You need to think about the results of what you do. Even though [the guilt of] your sins be [as evident and as difficult to get rid of] as [SIM] red [stains on a white garment] [DOU], [I will get rid of them completely] [like someone who can make that stained garment] become as white as snow or wool [DOU].
Dali karon, ug maghusay kita,” miingon si Yahweh; “bisan pa ug pula ang inyong mga sala, maputi kini sama sa niebe; bisan pa ug sama sa dagtom pula ang inyong mga sala, maputi kini sama sa balahibo sa karnero.
19 If you are willing to obey [me], [I will enable] you to have plenty to eat.
Kung magmasinugtanon ug magmatinuman kamo, makakaon kamo sa abot sa yuta,
20 But, if you turn away [from me and] rebel against me, you will be killed [by your enemies’] swords. [That will surely happen, because I, ] Yahweh, have said it.”
apan kung modumili ug mosupak kamo, laglagon kamo sa espada,” kay gisulti kini sa baba ni Yahweh.
21 “[You people of Jerusalem previously] faithfully [worshiped only] me, but now you have become like [MET] prostitutes [who are not faithful to any husband]. Previously, people there always acted justly/fairly and righteously, but now your city [is full of] murderers.
Giunsa pagkahimong nagbaligya ug dungog sa matinud-anong siyudad! Puno siya sa hustisya—puno siya sa pagkamatarong, apan karon puno siya sa mga mamumuno.
22 Previously, you were [like] [MET] pure silver, but now you have become [like] [MET] the scum that is left [when silver is purified]. Previously you were [like pure] wine, but you have become [like] [MET] wine that has [a lot of] water mixed with it.
Dili lunsay ang imong plata, sinagolan ug tubig ang imong bino.
23 Your leaders are rebels; they spend time with thieves. They all want to get bribes and force others to give them gifts [in order that they do good things for them]. They do not defend orphans [in court], and they do not do all they can to enable widows to get what they should receive.
Nagmasinupakon ang imong mga prinsipe ug kauban sa mga kawatan; nahigugma ang tanan sa suhol ug nagtinguha sa bayad. Wala nila dapigi ang mga ilo, ni ang mga sumbong sa mga balo nga miabot sa ilang atubangan.
24 Therefore [I, ] the Commander of the armies of angels, the mighty God of Israel, say to my enemies, ‘will get revenge on you; you will not cause me any more trouble. And I will pay you back for the evil things that you did.
Busa mao kini ang gipahayag sa Ginoo nga si Yahweh nga labawng makagagahom, ang Usa ka Gamhanan sa Israel: “Alaot sila! Panimaslan ko ang mga nakigbatok kanako, ug panimaslan ko mismo ang akong mga kaaway;
25 I will raise my fist to strike you. I will [punish you severely] [MET], as though [MET] you were silver [and I needed to heat you very greatly to] melt you and get rid of the impurities.
ipaatubang ko batok kanimo ang akong kamot, pagahinloan ko ang imong taya, ug mawala kining tanan.
26 [After that happens, ] I will give you good judges like you had previously; you will have [wise] counselors like you had long ago. Then people will call your city “a city where people [act] righteously, a city where people are loyal to me.”'”
Ipahibalik ko ang imong mga maghuhukom sama sa una, ug ang imong mga magtatambag sama sa sinugdan; human niana pagatawagon ka nga siyudad sa pagkamatarong, usa ka matinud-anon nga lungsod.”
27 Because the people of Jerusalem will do what is fair/just, their city will be restored; those who repent [will be saved] because of [their acting] righteously.
Lukaton ang Zion pinaagi sa hustisya, ug ang iyang paghinulsol pinaagi sa pagkamatarong.
28 But rebels and sinners will be crushed by Yahweh, and those who forsake him will disappear.
Malaglag ang mga masinupakon ug ang mga makasasala, ug kadtong mibiya kang Yahweh makahiagom sa ingon.
29 You will be ashamed because [you worshiped] idols under the oak trees [that you considered to be] sacred; you will be disgraced because [you worshiped idols] in the gardens where you chose [to worship them].
Kay maulawan kamo pinaagi sa sagradong mga kahoy nga akasya nga inyong gitinguha, ug maulawan kamo pinaagi sa mga tanaman nga inyong gipili.
30 You will be like [SIM] a very large tree which has withered leaves, like [SIM] a garden that [is dried up because] it has no water.
Kay mahisama kamo sa akasya nga malaya ang dahon, ug sama sa tanaman nga walay tubig.
31 Those among you who are [very] strong will become [like] [MET] dry wood, and the work they do will be [like] [MET] a spark; both they and the evil things that they do will burn up completely, and no one will be able to put out the fire.
Mahisama sa sugnod ang kusgan nga tawo, ug sama sa siga ang iyang buhat; modilaab silang duha ug walay makapalong niini.”
