< Isaias 37 >

1 Ket napasamak nga idi nangngeg ni Ari Ezekias ti impadamagda, rinay-abna dagiti kawesna, nagkawes isuna iti nakersang a lupot, ket simrek iti balay ni Yahweh.
And it came to pass, when king Ezekias heard [it, that] he rent his clothes, and put on sackcloth, and went up to the house of the Lord.
2 Imbaonna ni Eliakim a mangimatmaton iti palasio, ni Sebna nga eskriba, ken dagiti panglakayen dagiti padi a mapan kenni Isaias a profeta a lalaki a putot ni Amos, nakakawesda amin iti nakersang a lupot.
And he sent Heliakim the steward, and Somnas the scribe, and the elders of the priests clothed with sackcloth, to Esaias the son of Amos, the prophet. And they said to him, Thus says Ezekias,
3 Kinunada kenkuana, “Kuna ni Ezekias, 'Daytoy nga aldaw ket aldaw ti panagsagaba, pannakatubngar, ken pannakaibabain, kas iti tiempo a dandanin a maipasngay ti maysa a maladaga, ngem awan ti pigsa ti ina a mangipasngay iti anakna.
To-day is a day of affliction, and reproach, and rebuke, and anger: for the pangs are come upon the travailing [woman], but she has not strength to bring forth.
4 Nalabit a denggen ni Yahweh a Diosmo dagiti sasao ti panguloen a mangidadaulo, nga imbaon ti ari ti Asiria nga apona a mangkarit iti sibibiag a Dios, ket tubngarenna dagiti sasao a nangngeg ni Yahweh a Diosmo. Ita, ikararagam dagiti nabatbati nga adda pay laeng ditoy.”
May the Lord thy God hear the words of Rabsaces, which the king of the Assyrians has sent, to reproach the living God, even to reproach with the words which the Lord thy God has heard: therefore thou shalt pray to thy Lord for these that are left.
5 Napan ngarud kenni Isaias dagiti adipen ni Ari Ezekias,
So the servants of king Ezekias came to Esaias.
6 ket kinuna ni Isaias kadakuada, “Ibagayo iti apoyo: 'Kuna ni Yahweh, “Saanka nga agbuteng kadagiti sasao a nangngegmo, a pananglais kaniak dagiti adipen ti ari ti Asiria.
And Esaias said to them, Thus shall ye say to your master, Thus saith the Lord, Be not thou afraid at the words which thou hast heard, wherewith the ambassadors of the king of the Assyrians have reproached me,
7 Denggem, mangikabilak iti maysa nga espiritu kenkuana, ket makangngegto isuna iti damag ket agsubli isuna iti dagana. Ipapasagkonto isuna babaen iti kampilan iti bukodna a daga.'”
Behold, I [will] send a blast upon him, and he shall hear a report, and return to his own country, and he shall fall by the sword in his own land.
8 Kalpasanna, nagsubli ti panguloen a mangidadaulo ket nasarakanna ti ari ti Asiria a makigubgubat iti Libna, ta nangngegna a pimmanaw ti ari iti Lakis.
So Rabsaces returned, and found the king of the Assyrians besieging Lobna: for he had heard that he had departed from Lachis.
9 Ket nangngeg ni Senakerib a nagsagana a manggubat kenkuana ni Tirhaka nga ari ti Etiopia ken Egipto, isu a nangibaon manen isuna kadagiti mensahero kenni Ezekias, kastoy ti kuna ti mensahe:
And Tharaca king of the Ethiopians went forth to attack him. And when he heard it, he turned aside, and sent messengers to Ezekias, saying,
10 “Ibagayo kenni Ezekias nga ari ti Juda, 'Saanmo nga ipalubos nga allilawennaka ti Diosmo a pagtaltalkam, a kunana, “Saan a maiyawat ti Jerusalem iti ima ti ari ti Asiria.”
Thus shall ye say to Ezekias king of Judea, Let not thy God, in whom thou trustest, deceive thee, saying, Jerusalem shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of the Assyrians.
11 Kitaem, nangngegmo no ania ti inaramid dagiti ari ti Asiria kadagiti amin a dagdaga babaen iti naan-anay a panangdadaelda kadakuada. Isu a maispalkanto kadi?
Hast thou not heard what the kings of the Assyrians have done, how they have destroyed the whole earth? and shalt thou be delivered?
12 Inispal kadi ida dagiti dios dagiti nasion, dagiti nasion a dinadael dagiti ammak: ti Gozan, Haran, Resef, ken dagiti tattao ti Eden idiay Telasar?
Have the gods of the nations which my fathers destroyed delivered them, both Gozan, and Charrhan, and Rapheth, which are in the land of Theemath?
13 Sadino ti ayan ti ari ti Hamat, ti ari ti Arpad, ti ari dagiti siudad ti Sefarvaim, ti Hena, ken Ivva?'”
Where are the kings of Emath? and where [is the king of] Arphath? and where [is the king] of the city of Eppharuaim, [and of] Anagugana?
14 Inawat ni Ezekias daytoy a surat manipud kadagiti mensahero ket binasana daytoy. Ket simmang-at isuna a napan iti balay ni Yahweh ket inukradna daytoy iti sangoanan ni Yahweh.
And Ezekias received the letter from the messengers, and read it, and went up to the house of the Lord, and opened it before the Lord.
15 Nagkararag ni Ezekias kenni Yahweh:
And Ezekias prayed to the Lord, saying,
16 “O Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin, a Dios ti Israel, sika a nakatugaw iti ngatoen dagiti kerubim, sika laeng ti Dios a mangiturturay iti amin a pagarian iti lubong. Pinarsuam ti langit ken ti daga.
O Lord of hosts, God of Israel, who sittest upon the cherubs, thou alone art the God of every kingdom of the world: thou hast made heaven and earth.
17 Ibaw-ingmo ti lapayagmo, O Yahweh, ket denggem. Luktam dagiti matam, O Yahweh, ket kitaem, ken denggem dagiti sasao ni Senakerib, nga impatulodna tapno laisenna ti sibibiag a Dios.
Incline thine ear, O Lord, hearken, O Lord; open thine eyes, O Lord, look, O Lord: and behold the words of Sennacherim, which he has sent to reproach the living God.
18 Pudno, O Yahweh, a dinadael dagiti ari ti Asiria dagiti amin a nasion ken dagiti dagada.
For of a truth, Lord, the kings of the Assyrians have laid waste the whole world, and the countries thereof,
19 Pinuoranda dagiti dios dagidiay a nasion, ta saanda a dios no di ket aramid dagiti ima dagiti tattao, kayo ken bato laeng. Isu a dinadael ida dagiti taga-Asiria.
and have cast their idols into the fire: for, they were no gods, but the work of men's hands, wood and stone; and they have cast them away.
20 Isu nga ita, O Yahweh a Diosmi, isalakannakami manipud iti pannakabalinna, tapno maammoan koma dagiti amin a pagarian iti lubong a sika laeng ti agmaymaysa a Yahweh.
But now, O Lord our God, deliver us from his hands, that every kingdom of the earth may know that thou art God alone.
21 Ket nangipatulod iti mensahe ni Isaias nga anak ni Amos kenni Ezekias, a kunana, “Kuna ni Yahweh a Dios ti Israel, 'Gapu ta nagkararagka kaniak maipapan kenni Senakerib nga ari ti Asiria,
And Esaias the son of Amos was sent to Ezekias, and said to him, Thus saith the Lord, the God of Israel, I have heard thy prayer to me concerning Sennacherim king of the Assyrians.
22 daytoy ti sao nga imbaga ni Yahweh maipapan kenkuana: “Um-umsiennaka ti birhen nga anak ti Sion ken katkatawaannaka tapno laisennaka; iwingwingiwing iti anak ti Jerusalem ti ulona kenka.
This is the word which God has spoken concerning him; The virgin daughter of Sion has despised thee, and mocked thee; the daughter of Jerusalem has shaken her head at thee.
23 Siasino kadi ti kinarit ken linaismo? Ken siasino kadi ti pinukkawam ken nangitangadam kadagiti matam a sitatangsit? Iti Nasantoan ti Israel.
Whom hast thou reproached and provoked? and against whom hast thou lifted up thy voice? and hast thou not lifted up thine eyes on high against the Holy One of Israel?
24 Babaen kadagiti adipenmo, kinaritmo ti Apo ket kinunam, ‘Simmang-atak kadagiti nangangato a tapaw dagiti bantay a kaduak dagiti adu a karwahek, iti kangatoan a disso ti Lebanon. Pukanekto dagiti natayag a sedro daytoy ken dagiti kasasayaatan a kayo ti saleng sadiay, ken sumrekakto iti kaadaywan a nangato a disso, ti nabunga a bakir daytoy.
For thou hast reproached the Lord by messengers; for thou hast said, With the multitude of chariots have I ascended to the height of mountains, and to the sides of Libanus; and I have cropped the height of his cedars and the beauty of his cypresses; and I entered into the height of the forest region:
25 Nangkaliak kadagiti bubon ken imminumak iti danum dagiti gangganaet; pinatianak dagiti amin a karayan ti Egipto iti dapan dagiti sakak.'
and I have made a bridge, and dried up the waters, and every pool of water.
26 Saanmo kadi a nangngeg no kasano nga inkeddengko daytoy idi un-una a panawen ken no kasano nga inaramidko daytoy idi un-una a tiempo? Ita, ipatpatungpalko daytoy. Addaka ditoy tapno pagbalinen a gabsuon dagiti narba dagiti siudad a narigat a maraut.
Hast thou not heard of these things which I did of old? I appointed [them] from ancient times; but now have I manifested [my purpose] of desolating nations in [their] strong holds, and them that dwell in strong cities.
27 Dagiti agnanaed kadagitoy, a nakapsut ket mariribukan ken mapababainan. Kaslada kadagiti mulmula iti tay-ak, nalangto a ruot, ti ruot iti atep wenno iti tay-ak, a magango no puk-oyan ti napudot nga angin manipud iti daya.
I weakened [their] hands, and they withered; and they became as dry grass on the house-tops, and as grass.
28 Ngem ammok ti panagtugawmo, ti panagruarmo, ti panagserrekmo, ken ti panagpungtotmo kaniak.
But now I know thy rest, and thy going out, and thy coming in.
29 Gapu iti panagpungtotmo kaniak, ken gapu ta dimmanun kadagiti lapayagko ti kinatangsitmo, ikabilkonto ti kaw-itko iti agongmo, ken busalankanto; isublikanto iti isu met laeng a dalan nga immayam.”
And thy wrath wherewith thou hast been enraged, and thy rancour has come up to me; therefore I will put a hook in thy nose, and a bit in thy lips, and will turn thee back by the way by which thou camest.
30 Daytoyto ti pagilasinam: Iti daytoy a tawen, mangankayonto kadagiti balang, ken iti maikadua a tawen ket ti agsaringit manipud iti dayta. Ngem iti maikatlo a tawen, masapul nga agmula ken agapitkayo, agmulakayo kadagiti ubas ket kanenyo dagiti bungada.
And this shall be a sign to thee, Eat this year what thou hast sown; and the second year that which is left: and the third year sow, and reap, and plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them.
31 Ti nabati a nakalasat iti balay ti Juda ket agramutto manen ken agbunga.
And they that are left in Judea shall take root downward, and bear fruit upward:
32 Ta rummuarto dagiti nabati manipud iti Jerusalem; rummuarto dagiti nakalasat manipud iti Bantay Sion.' Aramidento daytoy iti regta ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin.”
for out of Jerusalem there shall be a remnant, and the saved ones out of mount Sion: the zeal of the Lord of hosts shall perform this.
33 Ngarud, kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh maipapan iti ari ti Asiria: “Saanto isuna a sumrek iti daytoy a siudad, wenno mangibiat iti pana ditoy. Ken saanto isuna nga umay iti sangoanan daytoy nga addaan iti kalasag wenno mangaramid iti pagbatayanna a manglakub iti daytoy.
Therefore thus saith the Lord concerning the king of the Assyrians, He shall not enter into this city, nor cast a weapon against it, nor bring a shield against it, nor make a rampart round it.
34 Ti dalan a nagnaanna nga immay ket isunto met laeng ti dalan a pagnaanna a pumanaw; saan isuna a sumrek iti daytoy a siudad. Daytoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.
But by the way by which he came, by it shall he return, and shall not enter into this city: thus saith the Lord.
35 Ta salaknibakto ken ispalekto daytoy a siudad, gapu kaniak ken gapu kenni David nga adipenko.”
I will protect this city to save it for my own sake, and for my servant David's sake.
36 Kalpasanna, rimmuar ti anghel ni Yahweh ket rinautna ti kampo dagiti taga-Asiria, pinatayna ti 185, 000 a mannakigubat. Idi bimmangon dagiti tattao iti parbangon, agkakaiwara dagiti bangkay.
And the angel of the Lord went forth, and slew out of the camp of the Assyrians a hundred and eighty-five thousand: and they arose in the morning and found all [these] bodies dead.
37 Isu a pimmanaw ni Senakerib nga ari ti Asiria iti Israel ket nagawid ken nagtalinaed iti Nineve.
And Sennacherim king of the Assyrians turned and departed, and dwelt in Nineve.
38 Saan a nagbayag, kabayatan nga agdaydayaw isuna iti balay ni Nisroc a diosna, pinatay isuna dagiti annakna a ni Adramalec ken ni Sarazer babaen iti kampilan. Ket naglibasda a napan iti daga ti Ararat. Ket ni Esarhadon nga anakna ti nagturay a kas ari a simmukat kenkuana.
And while he was worshipping Nasarach his country's god in the house, Adramelech and Sarasar his sons smote him with swords; and they escaped into Armenia: and Asordan his son reigned in his stead.
