< Jeremiah 31 >
1 Yahweh says that at that time, he will be the God [who is worshiped by] all the clans in Israel, and they will be his people.
“Iti dayta a tiempo—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—Siakto ti Dios dagiti amin a puli ti Israel ken isudanto ti agbalin a tattaok”
2 This is what Yahweh says: “Those [people] who remained alive and were not killed by [their enemies’] swords were blessed [by me even] in the desert; I enabled them to have peace.
Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, “Dagiti tattao a nakalasat iti kampilan, nga immay mangpatay iti Israel, ket nakasarak iti pabor iti let-ang.”
3 Long ago [I, ] Yahweh, said to [your ancestors, ] the Israeli people, ‘I have loved you and I will continue to love you forever. By faithfully loving you, I have brought you close to myself.’
Nagparang kaniak idi ni Yahweh ket kinunana, “Inayatka, Israel, iti agnanayon a panagayat. Isu nga inyasidegka kaniak babaen iti kinapudnok iti tulag.
4 And [now I tell you], my Israeli people whom I love [MET], that I will cause you to be a nation again. You will [joyfully] dance as you play your tambourines.
Bangonenkanto manen ket maibangonka, birhen nga Israel. Alaemto manen dagiti panderetam ket rumuarka a siraragsak nga agsalsala.
5 Again you will plant your vineyards on the hills of Samaria, and you will eat the grapes [that grow there].
Agmulakanto manen iti ubas kadagiti banbantay ti Samaria; agmulanto dagiti mannalon ket ganasendanto ti bunga dagiti ubasda.
6 There will be a time when watchmen will call out from the hills of Samaria [MTY], ‘Come, let’s go up to Jerusalem to [worship] Yahweh, our God!'”
Ta dumtengto ti aldaw inton iwaragawagto dagiti agbanbantay kadagiti banbantay ti Efraim, 'Agrubwatkayo, sumang-attayo idiay Sion, iti ayan ni Yahweh a Diostayo.'''
7 And now Yahweh also says this: “Sing joyfully about [what I have done for] the people of Israel! Shout about [your nation, ] the greatest nation! Shout joyfully, praising me and saying, ‘Yahweh, rescue your people, the ones who are still alive!’
Ta kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, “Ipukkawyo ti ragsakyo gapu kenni Jacob! Ipukkawyo ti ragsakyo para iti panguloen a tattao dagiti nasion! Panagdaydayaw koma ti mangngeg. Ibagayo, 'Inispal ni Yahweh dagiti tattaona, dagiti nabatbati iti Israel.'
8 Do that [because] I will bring them back from the northeast, from the most distant places on the earth. Among them will be blind people and lame people, women who are pregnant and women who are (having labor pains/about to give birth to babies). They will be a huge group of people!
Kitaenyo, umadanin ti panangisublik kadakuada manipud kadagiti daga iti amianan. Ummungekto ida manipud kadagiti kaaadaywan a paset ti daga. Karamanto kadakuada dagiti bulsek ken dagiti pilay; Kaduadanto dagiti masikog ken dagiti dandanin nga aganak. Addanto dakkel a taripnong nga agsubli ditoy.
9 They will be crying as they return, and they will be praying [to me]. I will guide them along streams of water, on level paths where they will not stumble. [I will do this] because I am [like] a father to the Israeli people; [it is as though] Israel is my oldest son.”
Umaydanto nga agsangsangit; Idalankonto ida bayat nga agkidkiddawda. Iturongkonto ida iti agay-ayus a danum iti nalinteg a dalan. Saandanto a maitibkol iti daytoy, ta agbalinakto nga ama iti Israel, ket ti Efraim ti agbalinto nga inauna nga anakko.”
10 Yahweh says, “[You people in the] nations of the world, listen to this message from me. Then proclaim it to [people who live along] the coasts far away. I scattered my people, but I will gather them [again] and will take care of them like [SIM] a shepherd takes care of his sheep.
“Denggenyo ti sao ni Yahweh, dakayo a nasion. Ipadamagyo kadagiti ig-igid ti baybay iti adayo a lugar. Dakayo a nasion, masapul nga ibagayo “Ti nangiwarawara iti Israel ket urnungennanto met laeng daytoy ken aywanannanto daytoy a kas iti panangaywan ti maysa nga agpaspastor iti karnerona.''
11 I will buy [my] Israeli people back from those who [conquered them because] they were more powerful [than my people].
Ta sinubbot ni Yahweh ni Jacob ken inispalna daytoy iti ima ti adayo a napigpigsa ngem isuna.
12 My people will return [to Jerusalem] and shout joyfully on the slopes of Zion Hill. They will rejoice about the things that I have abundantly given to them— grain and new wine and [olive] oil and young sheep and cattle. They themselves will be like a well-watered garden, and they will no longer be sad.
kalpasanna, umaydanto ket agrag-odanto iti tapaw ti Sion. Agrag-odanto gapu iti kinaimbag ni Yahweh, gapu iti mais ken iti baro nga arak, gapu iti lana ken gapu kadagiti annak dagiti karnero ken dagiti baka. Ta agbalinto a kasla nasibugan a minuyungan dagiti biagda, ket iti kaanoman, saandanton a makarikna pay iti panagladingit.
13 The young women will dance joyfully, and [all] the men, young ones and old ones, will join with them. I will cause them to rejoice instead of mourning; I will comfort them and cause them to be happy instead of being sad.
Ket agsasalanto dagiti birhen gapu iti rag-o, ken agkakadwanto dagiti agtutubo ken dagiti lallakay. Ta sukatakto ti panagladladingitda iti panagrambak. Liwliwaekto ida ken pagbalinek ida a naragsak saan ket a naladingit.
14 The priests will have plenty of things to eat and drink, and [all] my people will be filled with the good things that I give them. [That will certainly happen because I], Yahweh, have said it!”
Ket pennekekto iti aglaplapusanan ti panagbiag dagiti papadi. Mapnekto dagiti tattaok iti kinaimbagko—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.''
15 Yahweh [also] says this: “Women were weeping in Ramah [town on the border between Israel and Judah]; they were mourning and crying very loudly. [The women who were the descendants of Ephraim and Manasseh, the two grandsons of] Rachel [the wife of Jacob], were weeping about their children, and no one could comfort them because their children were [all] dead.
Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh: “Adda timek a mangmangngegan iti Ramah, dungdung-aw ken nasaem a sangsangit. Ni Raquel daytoy a mangdungdung-aw kadagiti annakna. Saanna a kayat ti paliwliwa gapu kadakuada, ta saandan nga agbibiag pay.”
16 [But now] this is what [I], Yahweh, say: ‘Do not cry [any more], because I will reward you [for the good things you have done for your children]. Your children will return from the land where their enemies [have taken them].
Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, ''Lapdam ti timekmo iti panagsangit ken dagiti matam iti panaglua; gapu ta adda gunggona iti panagsagsagabam—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh— agsublinto dagiti annakmo manipud iti daga dagiti kabusor.
17 [I], Yahweh, am telling you that there are things that you can confidently expect [me to do for you] in the future. Your children will return to their own land.’
Adda namnama iti masakbayam—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—agsublinto dagiti kaputotam iti uneg dagiti beddengda.'''
18 I have heard [the people of] Israel grieving very much [and saying to me], ‘You punished us severely, like [SIM] calves are beaten [by their owners to train them for pulling a plow]. [So] bring us back [to obey/worship you again], because we are ready to return to you, because you [alone] are Yahweh, our God.
“Pudno a nangngegko ti Efraim nga agladladingit, 'Dinusanak, ket nadusaak. Isublinak a kasla urbon a baka a saan a nasuroan, ket maisubliakto, ta sika ni Yahweh a Diosko.
19 We turned away [from you], but we repented; [after you] caused us to realize [that we were guilty]. We beat our chests to show that we were very ashamed [DOU] of the sins that we committed when we were young.’
Ta kalpasan a tinallikudanka, nagbabawiak; kalpasan a nakasursuroak, dinandanogko ti barukongko iti ladingit. Naibabain ken nalalaisak, ta sinagabak ti basol ti kinaagtutubok.
20 But [I], Yahweh, say this: The Israeli people certainly are [RHQ] still my dear children [DOU]. It is often necessary for me to threaten [to punish] them, but I still love them. That is why I have not forgotten them, and I will certainly act mercifully toward them.
'Saan aya nga ay-ayatek unay nga anak ni Efraim? Saan aya nga isu ti patpatgek ken pakaay-aywak unay nga anak? Ta tunggal agsaoak iti maibusor kenkuana, pudno a malaglagip ko latta isuna gapu ta ipatpategko isuna. Iti kastoy a wagas, kanayon a sapsapulen isuna daytoy pusok. Awan duadua a kaasiakto isuna—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.”
21 [You Israeli people, ] set up road signs; put up posts [along the roads] to mark the road on which you walked [when you were taken from Jerusalem]. My precious/beloved Israeli people, come back to your towns here.
Mangikabilka kadagiti pagilasinam iti kalsada. Mangikabilka kadagiti poste a pagilasinam. Ipamaysam ti panunotmo iti umno a dalan, ti dalan a rumbeng a turungem. Agsublika, birhen nga Israel! Agsulibka kadagitoy a siudadmo.
22 You people who have been like [MET] daughters who have forsaken their parents, how long will you continue to wander [away from me] [RHQ]? I, Yahweh, will cause something to happen on the earth that (is new/has not happened before): The women of Israel will be protecting their husbands as they travel [back here]!”
Kasano pay ti kabayag ti panagsarimadengmo, saan a napudno nga anak a babai? Ta nangparnuay ni Yahweh iti maysa a banag a baro ditoy daga: palpalikmutan dagiti babbai dagiti napipigsa a lallaki tapno salaknibanda dagitoy.
23 This is what the Commander of the armies of angels, the God whom [we] Israeli people [worship], says: “When I bring them back from the countries to which they have been exiled, all the people from the towns in Judah will again say, [‘I hope that] Yahweh will bless this my home, the holy place where righteous [people will live]!’
Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin, a Dios ti Israel, “Inton isublik dagiti tattao kadagiti dagada, kastoyto ti kunaenda iti daga ti Juda ken iti amin a siudadna, “Bendisionannaka koma ni Yahweh, sika a nalinteg a disso a pagnanaedanna, sika a nasantoan a bantay.'
24 [The people of] Judah [who live in] the towns, including the farmers and the shepherds, will all live together [peacefully].
Ta ti Juda ken ti amin a siudadna ket sangsangkamaysanto nga agnaed kenkuana. Addanto sadiay dagiti mannalon ken agpaspastor a kaduada dagiti arbanda.
25 I will enable weary people to rest, and enable people who are very exhausted to become strong again.”
Ta ikkakto iti danum nga inumenda dagiti nabannog ken pennekekto amin a mawaw manipud iti pannakawawda.”
26 I, [Jeremiah], woke up [after dreaming all those things], and I looked [around]. I had slept [very] delightfully!
Kalpasan daytoy nakariingak, ket naamirisko a ti pannaturogko ket makapabang-ar.
27 [Then] Yahweh said [to me], “There will be a time when I will greatly increase [MET] the number of people and the number of livestock here in Israel and Judah.
“Kitaenyo, umadanin dagiti aldaw—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—inton mulaak dagiti balbalay ti Israel ken Juda kadagiti kaputotan ti tao ken ayup.
28 [Previously], I caused [their enemies to] remove the people from their land and to destroy their land and to cause them to experience many disasters [DOU]. But in the future, I will enable them to build houses and to plant crops [here in Israel again]. [That will surely happen because I], Yahweh, have said it.
Idi napalabas, binantayak ida tapno paruten ken rebbaen ida, tapno parmeken ken dadaelen ida ken iyeg kadakuada ti pannakadangran. Ngem kadagiti masungad nga al-aldaw, bantayakto ida tapno bangonen ken imulak ida—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.
29 [Previously the people often said, ] ‘The parents have eaten sour grapes, but it is the children’s teeth that ache.’ [They meant that it was not fair for them to be punished for their ancestors’ sins]. But [when I bring them back to their land], they will no longer say that.
Kadagitanto nga al-aldaw awanton iti mangibaga, 'Nangan dagiti amma kadagiti naalsem nga ubas, ngem ti ngipen dagiti annak ti naalino.'
30 But now all people will die because of the sins that they themselves have committed.
Ta matayto ti tunggal tao gapu iti bukodna a basol; siasinoman a mangan iti naalsem nga ubas, maalinonto ti ngipenna.
31 [I], Yahweh, say this: ‘There will be a time when I will make a new agreement with the people of Israel and Judah.
Kitaenyo, umadanin dagiti aldaw—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—inton mangaramidak iti baro a tulag iti balay ti Israel ken iti balay ti Juda.
32 [This new agreement will] not be like the agreement that I made with their ancestors when I took them by their hands and led them out of Egypt. They broke that agreement, even though I [loved them like] [MET] husbands love their wives.’
Daytoy ket saanto a kas iti tulag a nakitulagak kadagiti ammada kadagiti aldaw nga iniggamak dagiti imada idi inruarko ida iti daga ti Egipto. Dagidiay dagiti aldaw a tinallikudanda ti tulagko, nupay asawa ti kaiyarigak kadakuada—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.
33 This is what I, Yahweh, say: ‘This is the new agreement that I will make with the people of Israel some day: I will put my laws in their minds and write them on their inner beings. I will be their God, and they will be my people.
Ngem daytoy ti tulag nga aramidek iti balay ti Israel kalpasan dagitoy nga al-aldaw—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh. Ikabilkonto ti lintegko iti kaungganda ken isuratkonto daytoy iti pusoda, ta Siakto ti Diosda, ket agbalindanto a tattaok.
34 And it will not be [necessary] for them to teach their neighbors or their relatives and say, “[You need to] know Yahweh,” because everyone, including unimportant people and very important people, will [already] know me. And I will forgive them for having been very wicked, and I will never think again about the sins that they have committed.’”
Ket saanton a kasapulan a suroan ti tunggal tao ti kaarrubana, wenno suroan ti maysa a tao ti kabsatna a kunaenna, 'Amoenyo ni Yahweh!' Ta amindanto, manipud kanunumoan kadakuada agingga iti katatan-okan, am-ammodakto—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—ta pakawanekto dagiti nadagsen a nagkuranganda ken saankonton a lagipen dagiti basolda.”
35 Yahweh is the one who causes the sun to give light during the day, and who causes the moon and the stars to give light during the night. He stirs up the seas, with the result that waves roar. His name is the Commander of the armies of angels, and this is what he says:
Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh—ni Yahweh a mangpaspasingising iti init iti aldaw, ken nangiyurnos iti bulan ken bitbituen tapno agraniag iti rabii. Isuna ti mangpagpagaraw iti baybay tapno agdaranudor dagiti dalluyon. Ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin amin ti naganna. Kastoy ti kunana,
36 “I will not reject my Israeli people any more than I will get rid of the laws [that control the universe].
“Agingga a saan a mapukaw dagitoy a permanente a banbanag iti imatangko—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—saanto met a sumardeng dagiti kaputotan ti Israel iti agnanayon a panagbalinna a nasion iti imatangko.”
37 And this is what I say: ‘No one can measure the sky, and no one can find out what is supporting the earth. Similarly, I cannot reject forever the descendants of Jacob because of all the [evil] things that they have done.’ [That is certain, because] I, Yahweh, have said it!
Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, “No mabalin koma a rukuden ti kangatoan a langit, ken no mabalin koma a kitaen ti pundasion ti daga iti baba, mabalinko met koma a laksiden amin dagiti kaputotan ti Israel gapu kadagiti amin nga inaramidda—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.”
38 [I], Yahweh, also say that there will be a time when [everything in] Jerusalem will be rebuilt for me, from the tower of Hananel [at the northeast corner, west] to [the gate named] the Corner Gate.
Kitaenyo, umadanin dagiti aldaw—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh— inton maibangon manen ti siudad para kaniak, manipud iti torre ti Hananel agingga iti Ruangan iti Suli.
39 [Workers] will stretch a measuring line/string over Gareb Hill all the way [southwest] to Goah.
Ket maituloyto pay ti panangrukrukod, agingga iti turod ti Gareb ken agsikko iti Goa.
40 And the whole area, including the place where corpses and ashes are thrown in the [Kidron] Valley, and all the fields to the east as far as the Horse Gate, will become set apart for me. And the city [of Jerusalem] will never again be captured or destroyed.”
Mailasinto para kaniak a ni Yahweh ti entero a tanap ti tanem ken dapdapo, ken ti amin a kataltalonan iti Tanap ti Kidron ken inggana iti Ruangan ti Kabalio iti daya. Saanto manen daytoy a maparut wenno maparmek iti kaanoman.”
