Malachi 2
1 And now, to you [is] this charge, O priests,
Ket ita, dakayo a papadi, daytoy a bilin ket para kadakayo.
2 If ye hearken not, and if ye lay [it] not to heart, To give honour to My name, said Jehovah of Hosts, I have sent against you the curse, And I have cursed your blessings, Yea, I have also cursed it, Because ye are not laying [it] to heart.
“No saanyo a denggen, ken no saanyo nga ipapuso ti mangitan-ok iti naganko,” kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin amin, “iyegko ngarud ti didigra kadakayo, ken ilunodko dagiti bendesionyo. Kinapudnona, inlunodko dagitoyen, gapu ta saanyo nga impapuso ti bilinko.
3 Lo, I am pushing away before you the seed, And have scattered dung before your faces, Dung of your festivals, And it hath taken you away with it.
Adtoy, tubngarek dagiti kaputotam, ket pulagidakto iti rugit dagiti rupayo, ti rugit kadagiti datonyo, ket maiyadayokayonto a kadua ti rugit.
4 And ye have known that I have sent unto you this charge, For My covenant being with Levi, Said Jehovah of Hosts.
Ket maammoanyonto nga impakaammok daytoy a bilin kadakayo, nga agtalinaed koma ti katulagak kenni Levi,” kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin amin.
5 My covenant hath been with him of life and of peace, And I make them to him a fear, and he doth fear Me, And because of My name he hath been affrighted.
“Agpaay a biag ken talna ti katulagak kenkuana, ken impaayko dagitoy a banbanag kenkuana tapno idayawnak. Dinayawnak ken timmakder nga addaan panagbuteng iti naganko.
6 The law of truth hath been in his mouth, And perverseness hath not been found in his lips, In peace and in uprightness he walked with Me, And many he brought back from iniquity.
Adda iti ngiwatna ti pudno a panursuro, ken awan iti saan a nasayaat a rimmuar iti bibigna. Nakipagbiag isuna kaniak nga addaan kappia ken kinalinteg, ken inallukoyna dagiti tattao tapno agsardengdan nga agbasbasol.
7 For the lips of a priest preserve knowledge, And law they do seek from his mouth, For a messenger of Jehovah of Hosts he [is].
Ta dagiti bibig koma ti papadi ti rumbeng a mangsalimetmet iti pannakaammo, ken iti ngiwatna koma ti pakasarakan dagiti tattao iti panursuro, ta isuna iti mensaherok, kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin amin.
8 And ye, ye have turned from the way, Ye have caused many to stumble in the law, Ye have corrupted the covenant of Levi, Said Jehovah of Hosts.
Ngem simmiasikayo iti pudno a dalan. Intibkolyo ti kaaduan nga agraraem iti linteg. Dinadaelyo ti katulagan ni Levi,” kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin amin.
9 And I also, I have made you despised and low before all the people, Because ye are not keeping My ways, And are accepting persons in the law.
“Iti kasukatna, pagbalinenkayo met a dakes ken karurod iti imatang dagiti amin a tattao, gapu ta saanyo a sinalimetmetan dagiti wagasko, ngem ketdi impakitayo ti panangidumayo iti panangisuroyo.”
10 Have we not all one father? Hath not our God prepared us? Wherefore do we deal treacherously, Each against his brother, To pollute the covenant of our fathers?
Saan kadi nga addaantayo amin iti maymaysa nga ama? Saan kadi a maymaysa ti Dios a namarsua kadatayo? Apay nga aglilinnipottayo, tunggal maysa maibusor iti kabsatna, tultulawantayo ti katulagan ti amatayo?
11 Dealt treacherously hath Judah, And abomination hath been done in Israel, and in Jerusalem, For polluted hath Judah the holy thing of Jehovah, That He hath loved, and hath married the daughter of a strange god.
Mananglilipot ti Juda, ken nakaal-alliaw a banag ti naaramid idiay Israel ken idiay Jerusalem. Ta tinulawan ti Juda ti nasantoan a lugar ni Yahweh nga impatpategna, ken inasawana ti babai nga anak ti ganggannaet nga agdaydayaw kadagiti didiosen.
12 Cut off doth Jehovah the man who doth it, Tempter and tempted — from the tents of Jacob, Even he who is bringing nigh a present to Jehovah of Hosts.
Pukawen koma ni Yahweh ti siasinoman a kaputotan ti tao nga agar-aramid iti daytoy manipud kadagiti tolda ni Jacob, uray maysa a mangiy-iyyeg iti daton kenni Yahweh a Mannakabalin amin.
13 And this a second time ye do, Covering with tears the altar of Jehovah, With weeping and groaning, Because there is no more turning unto the present, Or receiving of a pleasing thing from your hand.
Ken ar-aramidenyo pay daytoy. Laplapunusenyo ti altar ni Yahweh kadagiti lulua, agsangsangit ken agsinsinnaay, agsipud ta saannan a pulos a taliawen ti daton ken saannan nga awaten daytoy nga addaan iti pabor manipud kadagiti imayo.
14 And ye have said, 'Wherefore?' Because Jehovah hath testified between thee And the wife of thy youth, That thou hast dealt treacherously against her, And she thy companion, and thy covenant-wife.
Ngem ibagbagayo, “Apay a saanna a taliawen?” Gapu ta ni Yahweh ti nakaimatang kenka ken ti asawa ti kinaagtutubom, ket saanka a nagbalin a napudno kenkuana, uray no kataktakunaynaymo isuna ken asawam sigun iti katulagan.
15 And He did not make one [only], And He hath the remnant of the Spirit. And what [is] the one [alone]! He is seeking a godly seed. And ye have been watchful over your spirit, And with the wife of thy youth, None doth deal treacherously.
Saan kadi a pinagmaymaysanakayo babaen iti espirituna? Ken apay a pinagmaymaysanakayo? Gapu ta namnamaenna iti maaddaan ti nadiosan nga annak. Isu a bantayanyo ti bagbagiyo iti espirituyo, ken awan koma ti siasinoman a manglipot iti asawana iti kinaagtutubona.
16 For [I] hate sending away, said Jehovah, God of Israel, And He [who] hath covered violence with his clothing, said Jehovah of Hosts, And ye have been watchful over your spirit, And ye do not deal treacherously.
“Ta kagurak ti panagsina ti agassawa,” kuna ni Yahweh a Dios ti Israel, “ken ti tao a taktakupanna ti kawesna iti kinaranggas,” kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin amin. “Isu a bantayanyo ti bagbagiyo iti espirituyo ken agbalinkayo a napudno.”
17 Ye have wearied Jehovah with your words, And ye have said: 'In what have we wearied Him?' In your saying: 'Every evil-doer [is] good in the eyes of Jehovah, And in them He is delighting,' Or, 'Where [is] the God of judgment?'
Binannogyo ni Yahweh kadagiti sasaoyo. Ngem ibagbagayo, “Kasano koma a binannogmi isuna?” Babaen iti panangibagbagayo iti, “Nasayaat iti imatang ni Yahweh ti siasinoman nga agar-aramid iti dakes, ken maay-ayo isuna kadakuada;” wenno “Sadino ti ayan ti Dios iti hustisia?”
