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.
Penglihatan yang telah dilihat Yesaya bin Amos tentang Yehuda dan Yerusalem dalam zaman Uzia, Yotam, Ahas dan Hizkia, raja-raja Yehuda.
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.
Dengarlah, hai langit, dan perhatikanlah, hai bumi, sebab TUHAN berfirman: "Aku membesarkan anak-anak dan mengasuhnya, tetapi mereka memberontak terhadap Aku.
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].”
Lembu mengenal pemiliknya, tetapi Israel tidak; keledai mengenal palungan yang disediakan tuannya, tetapi umat-Ku tidak memahaminya."
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.
Celakalah bangsa yang berdosa, kaum yang sarat dengan kesalahan, keturunan yang jahat-jahat, anak-anak yang berlaku buruk! Mereka meninggalkan TUHAN, menista Yang Mahakudus, Allah Israel, dan berpaling membelakangi Dia.
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.
Di mana kamu mau dipukul lagi, kamu yang bertambah murtad? Seluruh kepala sakit dan seluruh hati lemah lesu.
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].
Dari telapak kaki sampai kepala tidak ada yang sehat: bengkak dan bilur dan luka baru, tidak dipijit dan tidak dibalut dan tidak ditaruh minyak.
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].
Negerimu menjadi sunyi sepi, kota-kotamu habis terbakar; di depan matamu orang-orang asing memakan hasil dari tanahmu. Sunyi sepi negeri itu seolah-olah ditunggangbalikkan orang asing.
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.
Puteri Sion tertinggal sendirian seperti pondok di kebun anggur, seperti gubuk di kebun mentimun dan seperti kota yang terkepung.
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].
Seandainya TUHAN semesta alam tidak meninggalkan pada kita sedikit orang yang terlepas, kita sudah menjadi seperti Sodom, dan sama seperti 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]!
Dengarlah firman TUHAN, hai pemimpin-pemimpin, manusia Sodom! Perhatikanlah pengajaran Allah kita, hai rakyat, manusia 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].
"Untuk apa itu korbanmu yang banyak-banyak?" firman TUHAN; "Aku sudah jemu akan korban-korban bakaran berupa domba jantan dan akan lemak dari anak lembu gemukan; darah lembu jantan dan domba-domba dan kambing jantan tidak Kusukai.
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.
Apabila kamu datang untuk menghadap di hadirat-Ku, siapakah yang menuntut itu dari padamu, bahwa kamu menginjak-injak pelataran Bait Suci-Ku?
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].
Jangan lagi membawa persembahanmu yang tidak sungguh, sebab baunya adalah kejijikan bagi-Ku. Kalau kamu merayakan bulan baru dan sabat atau mengadakan pertemuan-pertemuan, Aku tidak tahan melihatnya, karena perayaanmu itu penuh kejahatan.
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.
Perayaan-perayaan bulan barumu dan pertemuan-pertemuanmu yang tetap, Aku benci melihatnya; semuanya itu menjadi beban bagi-Ku, Aku telah payah menanggungnya.
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].
Apabila kamu menadahkan tanganmu untuk berdoa, Aku akan memalingkan muka-Ku, bahkan sekalipun kamu berkali-kali berdoa, Aku tidak akan mendengarkannya, sebab tanganmu penuh dengan darah.
16 Cleanse your inner beings, and become [spiritually] clean! Stop your evil behavior! Stop doing things that are wrong!
Basuhlah, bersihkanlah dirimu, jauhkanlah perbuatan-perbuatanmu yang jahat dari depan mata-Ku. Berhentilah berbuat jahat,
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].”
belajarlah berbuat baik; usahakanlah keadilan, kendalikanlah orang kejam; belalah hak anak-anak yatim, perjuangkanlah perkara janda-janda!
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].
Marilah, baiklah kita berperkara! --firman TUHAN--Sekalipun dosamu merah seperti kirmizi, akan menjadi putih seperti salju; sekalipun berwarna merah seperti kain kesumba, akan menjadi putih seperti bulu domba.
19 If you are willing to obey [me], [I will enable] you to have plenty to eat.
Jika kamu menurut dan mau mendengar, maka kamu akan memakan hasil baik dari negeri itu.
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.”
Tetapi jika kamu melawan dan memberontak, maka kamu akan dimakan oleh pedang." Sungguh, TUHAN yang mengucapkannya.
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.
Bagaimana ini, kota yang dahulu setia sekarang sudah menjadi sundal! Tadinya penuh keadilan dan di situ selalu diam kebenaran, tetapi sekarang penuh pembunuh.
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.
Perakmu tidak murni lagi dan arakmu bercampur air.
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.
Para pemimpinmu adalah pemberontak dan bersekongkol dengan pencuri. Semuanya suka menerima suap dan mengejar sogok. Mereka tidak membela hak anak-anak yatim, dan perkara janda-janda tidak sampai kepada mereka.
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.
Sebab itu demikianlah firman Tuhan, TUHAN semesta alam, Yang Mahakuat pelindung Israel; "Ha, Aku akan melampiaskan dendam-Ku kepada para lawan-Ku, dan melakukan pembalasan kepada para musuh-Ku.
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.
Aku akan bertindak terhadap engkau: Aku akan memurnikan perakmu dengan garam soda, dan akan menyingkirkan segala timah dari padanya.
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.”'”
Aku akan mengembalikan para hakimmu seperti dahulu, dan para penasihatmu seperti semula. Sesudah itu engkau akan disebutkan kota keadilan, kota yang setia."
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.
Sion akan Kubebaskan dengan penghakiman yang adil dan orang-orangnya yang bertobat akan Kubebaskan dengan tindakan yang benar.
28 But rebels and sinners will be crushed by Yahweh, and those who forsake him will disappear.
Tetapi orang-orang yang memberontak dan orang-orang berdosa akan dihancurkan bersama, dan orang-orang yang meninggalkan TUHAN akan habis lenyap.
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].
Sungguh, kamu akan mendapat malu karena pohon-pohon keramat yang kamu inginkan; dan kamu akan tersipu-sipu karena taman-taman dewa yang kamu pilih.
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.
Sebab kamu akan seperti pohon keramat yang daunnya layu, dan seperti kebun yang kekurangan air.
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.
Maka yang kuat menjadi seolah-olah kapas dan pekerjaannya menjadi seolah-olah bunga api; keduanya menimbulkan api dan tidak ada yang dapat memadamkan.
