< Isaias 43 >

1 Ngem ita, kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, a namarsua kenka Jacob, ken nangsukog kenka Israel: “Saanka nga agbuteng, gapu ta sinubotka; Inawaganka babaen iti naganmo, kukuaka.
But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and He that formed thee, O Israel: Fear not, for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name, thou art Mine.
2 No lumasatka iti danum addaakto kenka; ken iti panagballasiwmo kadagiti karayan, saankanto a malipus. Inton magnaka iti apuy saankanto a mauram, wenno madangran iti apuy.
When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee, and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee; when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned, neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.
3 Ta siak ni Yahweh a Diosmo, a Nasantoan a Dios ti Israel, a Mangisalakanmo. Intedko ti Egipto kas pannakasubbotmo, ti Etiopia ken Seba kas kasukatmo.
For I am the LORD thy God, The Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour; I have given Egypt as thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee.
4 Yantangay ta napateg ken naisangsangayanka iti imatangko, ay-ayatenka; isu nga iyawatko dagiti tattao a kas kasukatmo, ken dagiti dadduma a tattao a kas kasukat ti biagmo.
Since thou art precious in My sight, and honourable, and I have loved thee; therefore will I give men for thee, and peoples for thy life.
5 Saanka nga agbuteng, ta addaak kenka; ummongekto dagiti kaputotam manipud iti daya, ken ummongenkayonto manipud itilaud.
Fear not, for I am with thee; I will bring thy seed from the east, and gather thee from the west;
6 Ibagakto iti amianan, 'Palubosam ida,' ken iti abagatan, 'Saanmo ida nga igawid;' Iyegmo dagiti annakko a lallaki manipud iti adayo, ken dagiti annakko a babbai manipud kadagiti nasulinek a rehion ti daga,
I will say to the north: 'Give up,' and to the south: 'Keep not back, bring My sons from far, and My daughters from the end of the earth;
7 tunggal maysa a naawagan iti naganko, a pinarsuak a maipaay iti dayagko, a sinukogko, wen, nga inaramidko.
Every one that is called by My name, and whom I have created for My glory, I have formed him, yea, I have made him.'
8 Iruarmo dagiti bulsek a tattao, nga addaan kadagiti mata, ken dagiti tuleng, uray pay addaanda kadagiti lapayag.
The blind people that have eyes shall be brought forth, and the deaf that have ears.
9 Agguummong amin dagiti nasion, ken agtataripnong dagiti tattao. Adda kadi kadakuada ti nakabael a nangipakaammo iti daytoy ken nakaiwaragawag kadatayo kadagiti mapasamakto iti masakbayan? Bay-anyo nga iyegda dagiti saksida a mangpaneknek a hustoda, bay-anyo a dumngegda ken paneknekanda, ‘Pudno daytoy.'
All the nations are gathered together, and the peoples are assembled; who among them can declare this, and announce to us former things? Let them bring their witnesses, that they may be justified; and let them hear, and say: 'It is truth.'
10 Dakayo dagiti saksik,” kuna ni Yahweh, “ken dagiti adipenko a pinilik, tapno iti kasta, maammoandak koma ken patiendak, ken maawatanyo a siak isuna. Sakbay kaniak awan ti dios a naaramid, ken awanto ti sumaruno kaniak.
Ye are My witnesses, saith the LORD, and My servant whom I have chosen; that ye may know and believe Me, and understand that I am He; before Me there was no God formed, neither shall any be after Me.
11 Siak, Siak ni Yahweh, ket awan ti sabali pay a mangisalakan no di siak.
I, even I, am the LORD; and beside Me there is no saviour.
12 Impakpakaunak, nangisalakanak, ken impakammok, ket awan ti sabali pay a dios kadakayo. Dakayo dagiti saksik,” kuna ni Yahweh, “Siak ti Dios.
I have declared, and I have saved, and I have announced, and there was no strange god among you; therefore ye are My witnesses, saith the LORD, and I am God.
13 Manipud ita siak isuna, ket awan ti makaisalakan iti siasinoman manipud kadagiti imak. Agtigtignayak, ket adda kadi iti makaisubli iti daytoy?”
Yea, since the day was I am He, and there is none that can deliver out of My hand; I will work, and who can reverse it?
14 Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, ti Mannubotyo, a Nasantoan a Dios ti Israel: “Para kadakayo nangibaonak iti mangdarup iti Babilonia a mamagbalin kadakuada amin nga aglemmelemmeng, a mamagbalin kadagiti rag-o ti Babilonia a kankanta a pangdung-aw.
Thus saith the LORD, your Redeemer, The Holy One of Israel: For your sake I have sent to Babylon, and I will bring down all of them as fugitives, even the Chaldeans, in the ships of their shouting.
15 Siak ni Yahweh, a Nasantoanyo, a Nangparsua iti Israel, ti Ariyo.”
I am the LORD, your Holy One, the Creator of Israel, your King.
16 Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh (a nangilukat iti dalan iti baybay ken pagnaan kadagiti nadawel a danum,
Thus saith the LORD, who maketh a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty waters;
17 a nangiturong iti karwahe ken kabalio, iti armada ken iti nabileg unay. Limnedda a sangsangkamaysa; ket saandanto a pulos lummung-aw; napaksiatda, naiddep a kasla apuy ti pabilo.)
Who bringeth forth the chariot and horse, the army and the power — they lie down together, they shall not rise, they are extinct, they are quenched as a wick:
18 Saanyo nga amirisen dagiti napasamak iti naglabas, wenno panunoten dagiti banbanag a napasamak iti nabayagen a panawen.
Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old.
19 Dumngegkayo, mangaramidak iti baro a banag; ita, mapasamaken; saanyo kadi a madmadlaw daytoy? Mangaramidak iti dalan idiay disierto ken pagayusek iti let-ang dagiti danum.
Behold, I will do a new thing; now shall it spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.
20 Dayawendakto dagiti atap nga ayup nga adda kadagiti away, dagiti atap nga aso ken dagiti abestrus, gapu ta mangmangtedak iti danum iti let-ang, ken kadagiti karayan iti disierto, nga inumen dagiti tattao a pinilik,
The beasts of the field shall honour Me, the jackals and the ostriches; because I give waters in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert, to give drink to My people, Mine elect;
21 dagitoy a tattao nga inaramidko a para kaniak, tapno ipakaamoda koma dagiti pakaidaydayawak.
The people which I formed for Myself, that they might tell of My praise.
22 Ngem saanka nga immawag kaniak, Jacob; naumaka kaniak Israel.
Yet thou hast not called upon Me, O Jacob, neither hast thou wearied thyself about Me, O Israel.
23 Saanka a nangidatag kaniak iti uray ania kadagiti karnerom a kas daton a maipuor; wenno pinadayawannak koma babaen kadagiti sakripisiom. Saanka a pinadagsenan gapu kadagiti sagut a trigo, wenno binannog gapu kadagiti sagut nga insenso.
Thou hast not brought Me the small cattle of thy burnt-offerings; neither hast thou honoured Me with thy sacrifices. I have not burdened thee with a meal-offering, nor wearied thee with frankincense.
24 Saannak nga inggatangan iti nabanglo a runo, wenno indaton kaniak ti taba manipud kadagiti ayup a datonmo; ngem ketdi pinadagsenannak kadagiti basbasolmo, binannognak gapu kadagiti dakes nga aramidmo.
Thou hast bought Me no sweet cane with money, neither hast thou satisfied Me with the fat of thy sacrifices; but thou hast burdened Me with thy sins, thou hast wearied Me with thine iniquities.
25 Siak, wen Siak ti mangik-ikkat kadagiti basbasolmo para met laeng kaniak; ken saankon a pulos a lagipen pay dagiti basbasolmo.
I, even I, am He that blotteth out thy transgressions for Mine own sake; and thy sins I will not remember.
26 Ipalagipmo kaniak no ania dagiti napasamak. Agrikiarta; ibagam dagiti rasonmo, a mangpaneknek nga awan basolmo.
Put Me in remembrance, let us plead together; declare thou, that thou mayest be justified.
27 Nagbasol ti immuna nga amam, ken sinukirdak dagiti mangidadaulom.
Thy first father sinned, and thine intercessors have transgressed against Me.
28 Ngarud, tulawakto dagiti nasantoan nga opisial; iyawatkonto ti Jacob iti naan-anay a pannakadadael, ken ti Israel iti nakaro a pannakaibabain.”
Therefore I have profaned the princes of the sanctuary, and I have given Jacob to condemnation, and Israel to reviling.
