< Isaias 35 >

1 Agragsakto ti let-ang ken ti Araba; ken agrag-onto ti disierto ken agsabongto a kas iti rosas.
They rejoice from the wilderness and dry place, And the desert rejoices, And flourishes as the rose,
2 Agsabongto daytoy iti nawadwad ken agrag-o nga addaan ragsak ken panagkankanta; maitedto iti daytoy ti dayag ti Lebanon, ti kinadayag ti Carmel ken Saron; makitadanto ti dayag ni Yahweh, ti kinadayag ti Diostayo.
Flourishing it flourishes, and rejoices, Indeed, [with] joy and singing, The glory of Lebanon has been given to it, The beauty of Carmel and Sharon, They see the glory of YHWH, The majesty of our God.
3 Papigsaenyo dagiti nakapuy nga im-ima, ken patibkerenyo dagiti tumeng nga agtkutkutukot.
Strengthen the feeble hands, Indeed, strengthen the stumbling knees.
4 Ibagayo kadagiti addaan iti managbuteng a puso, “Bumilegkayo, saankayo nga agbuteng! Kitaenyo, umayto ti Diosyo nga addaan panagibales, nga adaan iti panangsupapak ti Dios. Umayto isuna ket isalakannakayo.
Say to the hurried of heart, “Be strong, Do not fear, behold, your God; vengeance comes, The repayment of God, He Himself comes and saves you.”
5 Ket makakitanto dagiti mata dagiti bulsek, ken makangngegto dagiti lapayag dagiti tuleng.
Then eyes of the blind are opened, And ears of the deaf are unstopped,
6 Ket aglagtonto ti pilay a kas iti maysa nga ugsa, ken agkantanto ti umel, ta agubbog ti danum manipud iti Araba, ken agayusto iti let-ang.
Then the lame leap as a deer, And the tongue of the mute sings, For waters have been broken up in a wilderness, And streams in a desert.
7 Agbalinto a dan-aw ti dumardarang a darat, ken ub-ubbog ti danum ti mawaw a daga; iti pagnanaedan dagiti atap nga aso, a nagiddaanda, agtubonto ti ruot kasta met dagiti runo ken tanubong.
And the mirage has become a pond, And the thirsty land—fountains of waters, In the habitation of dragons, Its place of lying down, A court for reed and rush.
8 Addanto sadiay ti maysa a kalsada a maawagan iti Ti Nasantoan a Dalan. Saanto nga agdaliasat sadiay dagiti saan a nadalus. Ngem daytoy ket para kenkuana nga agbibiag a nasantoan. Awanto ti maag a magna sadiay.
And a highway has been there, and a way, And it is called the “Way of Holiness.” The unclean do not pass over it, And He Himself [is] by them, Whoever is going in the way—even fools do not err.
9 Awanto ti leon sadiay, awanto ti narungsot nga ayup a magna sadiay; saanto a masarakan dagitoy sadiay, ngem ti nasubbot ti magnanto sadiay.
No lion is there, Indeed, a destructive beast does not ascend it, It is not found there, And the redeemed have walked,
10 Dagiti sinubbot ni Yahweh ket agsublinto ken umayto nga agkankanta iti Sion, ken addanto kadakuada ti agnanayon a ragsak; kamakamento ida ti ragsak ken rag-o; agtalawto ti panagladingit ken panagsennaay.
And the ransomed of YHWH return, And have entered Zion with singing, And [with] continuous joy on their head, They attain joy and gladness, And sorrow and sighing have fled away!
