Isaias 29
1 Asi pay ti Ariel, Ariel, ti siudad a nagkampoan ni David! Kada tawen; agrambakkayo kadagiti fiesta.
Woe [to] Ariel, Ariel, The city of the encampment of David! Add year to year, let festivals go around.
2 Ngem lakkubekto ti Ariel, ket agladingit ken agdung-awto daytoy; ket agbalinto daytoy kaniak a kas iti Ariel.
And I have sent distress to Ariel, And it has been lamentation and mourning, And it has been to me as Ariel.
3 Agkampoakto iti aglawlawyo ket lakubenkayonto babaen kadagiti nangangato nga alad a naaramid iti natiradan a kayo, ken pangatoekto dagiti aramatek a panglakubko kadakayo.
And I encamped, O babbler, against you, And I laid siege against you—a camp. And I raised up bulwarks against you.
4 Maipababakayonto ken agsaokayonto manipud iti daga; agtaudto iti tapok ti saoyo. Kaslanto timek ti al-allia manipud iti uneg ti daga ti timekyo, ket nakapsutto unay ti saoyo manipud iti tapok.
And you have been low, You speak from the earth, And make your saying low from the dust, And your voice has been from the earth, As one having a familiar spirit, And your saying whispers from the dust,
5 Ti bunggoy dagiti mangraraut kadakayo ket kaslanto napino a tapok, ken kaslanto taep a maiyangin dagiti adu a naulpit a tattao. Mapasamakto daytoy a saan a mapakpakadaan, iti apagdarikmat.
And as small dust has been The multitude of those scattering you, And as chaff passing on the multitude of the terrible, And it has been in an instant—suddenly.
6 Dusaennakayonto ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin babaen iti gurruod, ginggined, napigsa a tagari, napigsa nga angin ken naranggas a bagyo, ken gil-ayab ti makauram nga apuy.
You are inspected by YHWH of Hosts, With thunder, and with an earthquake, And great noise, windstorm, and whirlwind, And flame of devouring fire.
7 Maiyarigto daytoy iti maysa a tagtagainep, maysa a sirmata iti rabii: Ti bunggoy dagiti amin a nasion ket makirangetto iti Ariel ken iti sarikedked daytoy. Rautendanto daytoy ken dagiti pagsamsammakedan daytoy tapno maimameg daytoy.
And as a dream, a vision of night, Has been the multitude of all the nations Who are warring against Ariel, And all its warriors, and its bulwark, Even of those distressing her.
8 Maiyarigto daytoy iti maysa a mabisin a tao nga agtagtagainep a mangmangan, ngem no makariing ket awan karga ti buksitna. Maiyarigto daytoy iti maysa a mawaw a tao nga agtagtagainep nga umin-inum, ngem no makariing ket matalimudaw isuna ken saan a maep-ep ti pannakawawna. Wen, ket kastanto ti kaiyarigan ti bunggoy dagiti nasion a mangraut iti Bantay Sion.
And it has been, as when the hungry dreams, And behold, he is eating, And he has awoken, And his soul [is] empty, And as when the thirsty dreams, And behold, he is drinking, And he has awoken, And behold, he is weary, And his soul is longing, So is the multitude of all the nations Who are warring against Mount Zion.
9 Pagsiddaawenyo dagiti bagbagiyo ket agsiddaawkayo; pagbulsekenyo dagiti bagbagiyo ket agbulsekkayo! Agbartekkayo, ngem saan a babaen iti arak; agdiwerdiwerkayo ngem saan a gapu iti arak.
Linger and wonder, look, indeed, look, Be drunk, and not with wine, Stagger, and not with strong drink.
10 Ta imbukbok ni Yahweh kadakayo ti espiritu ti pannakarnek iti turog. Pinagkidemna dagiti matayo, dakayo a profeta, ken inabbunganna dagiti uloyo, dakayo a makakitkita iti masakbayan.
For YHWH has poured out a spirit of deep sleep on you, And He closes your eyes—the prophets, And your heads—the seers—He covered.
11 Dagiti amin a paltiing ket nagbalin kadakayo a kas kadagiti sasao iti libro a naselioan, a mabalin nga ited ti maysa a tao iti nakaadal, a kunana, “Basaem daytoy.” Kunana met, “Saanko a mabasa ta naselioan daytoy.”
And the vision of the whole is to you, As words of the sealed scroll, That they give to one knowing scrolls, Saying, “Please read this,” And he has said, “I am not able, for it [is] sealed”;
12 No maited ti libro iti tao a saan a makabasa, kunana, “Basaem daytoy,” ibagana, “Saanak a makabasa.”
And the scroll is given to him who has not known scrolls, Saying, “Please read this,” And he has said, “I have not known scrolls.”
13 Kinuna ti Apo, “Umas-asideg kaniak dagitoy a tattao babaen kadagiti ngiwatda ken daydayawendak babaen kadagiti bibigda, ngem adayo kaniak dagiti pusoda. Ti panangdaydayawda kaniak ket bilin nga insuro dagiti tattao.
And the Lord says: “Because this people has drawn near with its mouth, And they have honored Me with its lips, And it has put its heart far off from Me, And their fear of Me is a precept taught by men!
14 Ngarud, kitaenyo, ituloykonto ti mangaramid iti nakaskasdaaw a banag kadagitoy a tattao, agsasaruno a nakakaskasdaaw. Agpukawto ti kinasirib dagiti masirib a tattaoda, ken mapukawto ti pannakaawat dagiti nanakman a tattaoda.”
Therefore, behold, I am adding to do wonderfully with this people, A wonder, and a marvel, And the wisdom of its wise ones has perished, And the understanding of its intelligent ones hides itself.”
15 Asi pay dagiti nainget a mangilemmeng kadagiti panggepda kenni Yahweh, ken dagiti adda iti kinasipnget ti aramidda. Kunada, “Siasino koma ngay ti makakitkita kadatayo, ken makaam-ammo kadatayo?
Woe [to] those going deep from YHWH to hide counsel, And whose works have been in darkness. And they say, “Who is seeing us? And who is knowing us?”
16 Binallikogyo dagiti banbanag! Mabalin kadi a maibilang a pitak ti agdamdamili, tapno ti banag a naaramid ket maibagana maipapan iti nangaramid kenkuana a, “Saannak nga inaramid,” wenno ti banag a nasukog ket ibagana maipapan iti nangsukog kenkuana a, “Saan isuna a makaawat?”
Your perversion! Is the potter esteemed as clay, That the work says of its maker, “He has not made me?” And the framed thing said of its framer, “He did not understand?”
17 Iti mabiit laeng a panawen, agbalinto a talon ti Lebanon, ken agbalinto a kabakiran ti talon.
Is it not yet a very little [while], And Lebanon has turned into a fruitful field, And the fruitful field is reckoned for a forest?
18 Iti dayta nga aldaw mangngegto ti tuleng dagiti sasao ti maysa a libro, ken makakitanto dagiti mata ti bulsek manipud iti nakaro a sipnget.
And the deaf have heard the words of a scroll in that day, And out of thick darkness, and out of darkness, The eyes of the blind see.
19 Agrag-onto manen kenni Yahweh dagiti naidadanes, ken agrag-onto iti Nasantoan ti Israel dagiti nakurapay a tattao.
And the humble have added joy in YHWH, And the poor among men Rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.
20 Ta agsardengto dagiti naulpit, ken agpukawto ti managuyaw. Dagiti amin a mangay-ayat nga agaramid iti dakes ket mapukawto,
For the terrible one has ceased, And the scorner has been consumed, And all watching for iniquity have been cut off,
21 dagiti tattao a ti saoda ket pagbalinenna a nakabasol ti maysa a tao. Mangipakatda iti silo para kadagiti mangbirbirok iti hustisia iti ruangan ken imamegda dagiti nalinteg babaen iti panagulbodda.
Who cause men to sin in word, And lay a snare for a reprover in the gate, And turn aside the righteous into emptiness.
22 Ngarud, daytoy ti kuna ni Yahweh maipapan iti balay ni Jacob— ni Yahweh, a nangsubbot kenni Abraham, “Saanton nga agbain ni Jacob, wenno agpusyaw ti rupana.
Therefore, thus said YHWH, Who ransomed Abraham, Concerning the house of Jacob: “Jacob is not ashamed now, Nor does his face now become pale,
23 Ngem inton makitana dagiti annakna, ti aramid dagiti imak, pagbalinendanto a nasantoan ti naganko. Pagbalinendanto a nasantoan ti nagan ti Nasantoan ni Jacob ken agbutengdanto iti Dios ti Israel.
For in his seeing his children, The work of My hand, in his midst, They sanctify My Name, And have sanctified the Holy One of Jacob, And they declare the God of Israel fearful.
24 Dagiti agbiddut iti naespirituan ket magun-oddanto ti pannakaawat, ken makasursuronto dagiti managriri.”
And the erring in spirit have known understanding, And murmurers learn doctrine!”
