< 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 hath said 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; mine art thou.
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.
Whenever thou passest through the waters, I am with thee; and through the rivers, —they shall not overflow thee: whenever thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be scorched; neither shall the flame burn on 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 for thy ransom, Cush and Seba in place of 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 eyes, art honorable, and I indeed do love thee: therefore will I give men in place of thee, and nations instead of thy soul.
5 Saanka nga agbuteng, ta addaak kenka; ummongekto dagiti kaputotam manipud iti daya, ken ummongenkayonto manipud itilaud.
Fear not, for I am with thee; from the east will I bring thy seed, and from the west will I gather thee.
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, Withhold not: bring my sons from afar, and my daughters from the ends 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; whom I have formed; yea, whom I have made.
8 Iruarmo dagiti bulsek a tattao, nga addaan kadagiti mata, ken dagiti tuleng, uray pay addaanda kadagiti lapayag.
Bring forward the blind people that have eyes, 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.'
Let all the nations be gathered together, and let the people be assembled: who among them can announce this? and cause us to hear former things? let them bring forth their witnesses, that they may be justified: or 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: in order that ye may know and believe me, and understand, that I am he; before me there was no god formed, and after me there will be none.
11 Siak, Siak ni Yahweh, ket awan ti sabali pay a mangisalakan no di siak.
I, 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 myself have announced it, and I have saved, and I have let it be heard, and there was no strange [god] among you; and 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, from the [first] day am I he; and there is none that can deliver out of my hand: if I will work, is there one that can hinder 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 hath said the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, For your sake did I send to Babylon, and in swift vessels brought I them all down, and the Chaldeans, in the ships of their joyful song.
15 Siak ni Yahweh, a Nasantoanyo, a Nangparsua iti Israel, ti Ariyo.”
I am the Lord, the 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 hath said 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 chariot and horse, army and power: together shall they lie down, they shall not rise up again; they are extinct, like a wick are they quenched.
18 Saanyo nga amirisen dagiti napasamak iti naglabas, wenno panunoten dagiti banbanag a napasamak iti nabayagen a panawen.
Remember not the former things, and ancient events regard no more.
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; will ye not acknowledge it? I will even make in the wilderness a way, and in the desert rivers.
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 honor me, the monsters and the ostriches; because I give waters in the wilderness, rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my elect;
21 dagitoy a tattao nga inaramidko a para kaniak, tapno ipakaamoda koma dagiti pakaidaydayawak.
This people which I have formed for myself; my praise shall they relate.
22 Ngem saanka nga immawag kaniak, Jacob; naumaka kaniak Israel.
But on me hast thou not called, O Jacob; for thou art become weary of 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 unto me the lamb of thy burnt-offerings; and with thy sacrifices hast thou not honored me: I have not troubled thee with meat-offerings, 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 not bought for me sweet cane, and with the fat of thy sacrifices hast thou not satisfied me; but thou hast troubled me with thy sins, thou hast wearied me with thy iniquities.
25 Siak, wen Siak ti mangik-ikkat kadagiti basbasolmo para met laeng kaniak; ken saankon a pulos a lagipen pay dagiti basbasolmo.
I, it is I that blot out thy transgressions for my 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: relate thou, in order that thou mayest be justified.
27 Nagbasol ti immuna nga amam, ken sinukirdak dagiti mangidadaulom.
Thy first father did sin, and they that plead for thee 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 do I profane the holy princes, and I give up Jacob to the curse, and Israel to reproaches.
