< 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 says the LORD who created you, Jacob, and he who formed you, Israel: "Do not be afraid, for I have redeemed you. I have called you by your name. You are 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 you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they will not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned, and the flame will not scorch you.
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 your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior. I have given Egypt as your ransom, Ethiopia and Seba in your place.
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 you have been precious and honored in my sight, and I have loved you; therefore I will give people in your place, and nations instead of your life.
5 Saanka nga agbuteng, ta addaak kenka; ummongekto dagiti kaputotam manipud iti daya, ken ummongenkayonto manipud itilaud.
Do not be afraid; for I am with you. I will bring your descendants from the east, and gather you 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 tell the north, 'Give them up.' and tell the south, 'Do not hold them back. Bring my sons from far, and my daughters from the farthest parts of the earth—
7 tunggal maysa a naawagan iti naganko, a pinarsuak a maipaay iti dayagko, a sinukogko, wen, nga inaramidko.
everyone who is called by my name, and whom I have created for my glory, whom I have formed, yes, whom I have made.'"
8 Iruarmo dagiti bulsek a tattao, nga addaan kadagiti mata, ken dagiti tuleng, uray pay addaanda kadagiti lapayag.
Bring out the blind people who have eyes, and the deaf who 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 peoples be assembled. Who among them can declare this, and show us former things? Let them bring their witnesses, that they may be justified; or let them hear, and say, "That is true."
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.
"You are my witnesses," says the LORD, "With my servant whom I have chosen; that you may know and believe me, and understand that I am he. Before me there was no God formed, neither will there be after me.
11 Siak, Siak ni Yahweh, ket awan ti sabali pay a mangisalakan no di siak.
I, I am the LORD; and besides me there is no savior.
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, I have saved, and I have shown; and there was no strange god among you. Therefore you are my witnesses," says 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?”
Yes, since the day was I am he; and there is no one who can deliver out of my hand. I will work, and who 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 says the LORD, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: "For your sake, I have sent to Babylon, and I will bring all of them down as fugitives, even the Chaldeans, in the ships of their rejoicing.
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 says the LORD, who makes 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 brings forth the chariot and horse, the army and the mighty man (they lie down together, they shall not rise; they are extinct, they are quenched like a wick):
18 Saanyo nga amirisen dagiti napasamak iti naglabas, wenno panunoten dagiti banbanag a napasamak iti nabayagen a panawen.
"Do not remember the former things, and do not 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.
Look, I will do a new thing. It springs forth now. Do you 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 animals of the field shall honor me, the jackals and the ostriches; because I give water in the wilderness and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my chosen,
21 dagitoy a tattao nga inaramidko a para kaniak, tapno ipakaamoda koma dagiti pakaidaydayawak.
the people which I formed for myself, that they might set forth my praise.
22 Ngem saanka nga immawag kaniak, Jacob; naumaka kaniak Israel.
Yet you have not called on me, Jacob; but you have been weary of me, 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.
You have not brought me of your sheep for burnt offerings; neither have you honored me with your sacrifices. I have not burdened you with offerings, nor wearied you 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.
You have bought me no sweet cane with money, nor have you filled me with the fat of your sacrifices; but you have burdened me with your sins. You have wearied me with your 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 who blots out your transgressions for my own sake; and I will not remember your sins.
26 Ipalagipmo kaniak no ania dagiti napasamak. Agrikiarta; ibagam dagiti rasonmo, a mangpaneknek nga awan basolmo.
Put me in remembrance. Let us plead together. Set forth your case, that you may be justified.
27 Nagbasol ti immuna nga amam, ken sinukirdak dagiti mangidadaulom.
Your first father sinned, and your teachers 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 will profane the princes of the sanctuary; and I will make Jacob a curse, and Israel a reviling."
