< 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 round.
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 hath been lamentation and mourning, And it hath 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 thee, And I laid siege against thee — a camp. And I raised up against thee bulwarks.
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 thou hast been low, From the earth thou speakest, And from the dust makest thy saying low, And thy voice hath been from the earth, As one having a familiar spirit, And from the dust thy saying whisperest,
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 hath been The multitude of those scattering thee, And as chaff passing on the multitude of the terrible, And it hath been at 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.
By Jehovah of Hosts thou art inspected, With thunder, and with an earthquake, And great noise, hurricane, 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, hath 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 hath been, as when the hungry dreameth, And lo, he is eating, And he hath waked, and empty [is] his soul, And as when the thirsty dreameth, And lo, he is drinking, and he hath waked, And lo, 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.
Tarry and wonder, look ye, yea, 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 poured out on you hath Jehovah a spirit of deep sleep, And He closeth 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 book, That they give unto one knowing books, Saying, 'Read this, we pray thee,' And he hath 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 book is given to him who hath not known books, Saying, 'Read this, we pray thee,' And he hath said, 'I have not known books.'
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 saith: Because drawn near hath this people, with its mouth, And with its lips they have honoured Me, And its heart it hath put far off from Me, And their fear of Me is — A precept of men is taught!
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, lo, I am adding to do wonderfully with this people, A wonder, and a marvel, And perished hath the wisdom of its wise ones, And the understanding of its intelligent ones hideth 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 Jehovah 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! as clay is the potter esteemed? That the work saith of its maker, 'He hath 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, And turned hath Lebanon to a fruitful field, And the fruitful field for a forest is reckoned?
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 heard in that day have the deaf the words of a book, And out of thick darkness, and out of darkness, The eyes of the blind do 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 Jehovah, And the poor among men In the Holy One of Israel rejoice.
20 Ta agsardengto dagiti naulpit, ken agpukawto ti managuyaw. Dagiti amin a mangay-ayat nga agaramid iti dakes ket mapukawto,
For ceased hath the terrible one, And consumed hath been the scorner, And cut off have been all watching for iniquity,
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.
Causing men to sin in word, And for a reprover in the gate lay a snare, And turn aside into emptiness the righteous.
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 Jehovah, Who ransomed Abraham, Concerning the house of Jacob: 'Not now ashamed is Jacob, Nor now doth his face 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 the God of Israel they declare 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!'
