< Isaias 44 >
1 Ita dumngegka, Jacob nga adipenko, ken Israel, a pinilik:
Yet now hear, O Jacob my servant; and Israel, whom I have chosen:
2 Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, a nangaramid kenka ken nangbukel kenka iti aanakan ken ti mangtulongto kenka: “Saanka nga agdanag, Jacob nga adipenko; ken sika, Jeshurun, a pinilik.
Thus saith the LORD that made thee, and formed thee from the womb, [which] will help thee; Fear not, O Jacob, my servant; and thou, Jesurun, whom I have chosen.
3 Ta ibukbukkonto ti danum iti rabaw ti mawaw a daga, ken pagayusekto dagiti waig iti natikag a daga; Ibukbukkonto ti Espirituk kadagiti kaputotam, ken ti bendisionko kadagiti annakmo.
For I will pour water upon him that is thirsty, and floods upon the dry ground: I will pour my spirit upon thy seed, and my blessing upon thine offspring:
4 Agrusingdanto iti karuotan, a kas kadagiti lidda nga adda kadagiti igid ti waig.
And they shall spring up [as] among the grass, as willows by the water courses.
5 Addanto mangibaga, 'Kukuanak ni Yahweh;' ken ti sabali ket mapanagananto iti nagan ni Jacob; ken suratanto ti sabali ti imana iti 'Maibilang kenni Yahweh' ket maawagan iti nagan ti Israel.”
One shall say, I [am] the LORD’s; and another shall call [himself] by the name of Jacob; and another shall subscribe [with] his hand unto the LORD, and surname [himself] by the name of Israel.
6 Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh—ti Ari ti Israel ken ti Mannubbotna, ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin: “Siak ti immuna, ken ti maudi; ket awanen iti sabali pay a Dios no di Siak laeng.
Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I [am] the first, and I [am] the last; and beside me [there is] no God.
7 Siasino ti kas kaniak? Ibagana ngarud daytoy ken ipalawagna kaniak dagiti napaspasamak manipud pay idi pinarsuak dagiti immuna a tattaok, ken ibagada koma ngarud dagiti mapasamak iti masakbayan.
And who, as I, shall call, and shall declare it, and set it in order for me, since I appointed the ancient people? and the things that are coming, and shall come, let them shew unto them.
8 Saanka nga agdanag wenno agbuteng. Saan kadi nga imbagakon kenka idi, ken impakaammokon daytoy? Sika ti saksik: Adda kadi pay Dios malaksid kaniak? Awanen ti sabali pay a Bato; awan ti ammok a sabali pay.”
Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have not I told thee from that time, and have declared [it]? ye [are] even my witnesses. Is there a God beside me? yea, [there is] no God; I know not [any].
9 Amin nga agar-aramid kadagiti didiosen ket awan serserbina; dagiti banbanag a pagragragsakanda ket awan serserbina; saan a makakita dagiti saksida ken awan ti maammoanda, ken maibabaindanto.
They that make a graven image [are] all of them vanity; and their delectable things shall not profit; and they [are] their own witnesses; they see not, nor know; that they may be ashamed.
10 Siasino ti makaaramid iti maysa a didiosen wenno mangsukog iti didiosen nga awan serserbina?
Who hath formed a god, or molten a graven image [that] is profitable for nothing?
11 Kitaem, dagiti amin a katulonganna ket maibabainto; dagiti agkitkitikit ket tattao laeng. Umayda koma a sangsangkamaysa; agbuteng ken maibabaindanto.
Behold, all his fellows shall be ashamed: and the workmen, they [are] of men: let them all be gathered together, let them stand up; [yet] they shall fear, [and] they shall be ashamed together.
12 Agtrabtrabaho ti mammanday babaen kadagiti rimientana, suksukogenna daytoy, aramidenna daytoy kadagiti beggang. Suksukogenna daytoy babaen iti martiliona ken ar-aramidenna daytoy babaen iti napigsa a takiagna. Mabisin ken mabannog isuna; saan nga uminom iti danum ket matalimudaw.
The smith with the tongs both worketh in the coals, and fashioneth it with hammers, and worketh it with the strength of his arms: yea, he is hungry, and his strength faileth: he drinketh no water, and is faint.
13 Rukoden ti karpentero ti kayo babaen iti maysa a linia, sana markaan daytoy babaen iti maysa a tisa. Kitikitanna daytoy babaen kadagiti rimientana sana markaan daytoy babaen iti kompas. Kitikitanna daytoy a maiyasping iti imahe ti maysa a tao, a kasla makaay-ayo a tao, tapno maikabil daytoy iti maysa a disso a pagdaydayawan.
The carpenter stretcheth out [his] rule; he marketh it out with a line; he fitteth it with planes, and he marketh it out with the compass, and maketh it after the figure of a man, according to the beauty of a man; that it may remain in the house.
14 Mangpukan isuna kadagiti kayo a sedro, wenno mangpili isuna iti maysa a kayo ti lugo wenno maysa a parwa a kayo. Mangal-ala isuna iti kayo idiay kabakiran. Agmulmula isuna iti maysa a kayo a laurel ket ti tudo ti mangpatubo iti daytoy.
He heweth him down cedars, and taketh the cypress and the oak, which he strengtheneth for himself among the trees of the forest: he planteth an ash, and the rain doth nourish [it].
15 Kalpasanna, aramaten daytoy ti maysa a tao a pagsungrod ken paginudoanna. Wen, mangpasged isuna iti apuy sana pagilutoan iti tinapay. Kalpasanna, mangaramid isuna manipud iti daytoy iti maysa a didiosen sa agrukbab iti daytoy; mangaramid isuna iti maysa a didiosen sa agrukbab daytoy.
Then shall it be for a man to burn: for he will take thereof, and warm himself; yea, he kindleth [it], and baketh bread; yea, he maketh a god, and worshippeth [it; ] he maketh it a graven image, and falleth down thereto.
16 Isungrodna ti sabali a paset ti kayo, itunona iti daytoy ti karnena. Mangan isuna ket mapnek. Aginudo ket kunaenna, “A, nabaraanak, nakitak ti apuy.”
He burneth part thereof in the fire; with part thereof he eateth flesh; he roasteth roast, and is satisfied: yea, he warmeth [himself], and saith, Aha, I am warm, I have seen the fire:
17 Iti nabatbati a paset ti kayo agaramid isuna iti didiosen, ti nakitikitan nga imahena; agrukbab isuna iti daytoy sana raemen, ken pagkararaganna daytoy a kunana, “Isalakannak, ta sika ti diosko.”
And the residue thereof he maketh a god, [even] his graven image: he falleth down unto it, and worshippeth [it], and prayeth unto it, and saith, Deliver me; for thou [art] my god.
18 Saanda nga ammo, wenno maawatan, gapu ta bulsekda ken saanda a makakita, ken saan a makarikna dagiti pusoda.
They have not known nor understood: for he hath shut their eyes, that they cannot see; [and] their hearts, that they cannot understand.
19 Awan ti mangpanpanunot, wenno mangam-amiris a kunaenna, “Pinuorak dagiti dadduma a paset ti kayo; wen, nagilutoak pay iti tinapay kadagiti beggangna. Nagitunoak iti karne kadagiti beggangna ket nanganak. Ita, rumbeng kadi nga aramidek dagiti dadduma a paset ti kayo iti maysa a banag a saan nga umno a pagdayawan? Rumbeng kadi nga agrukbabak iti maysa a kayo?”
And none considereth in his heart, neither [is there] knowledge nor understanding to say, I have burned part of it in the fire; yea, also I have baked bread upon the coals thereof; I have roasted flesh, and eaten [it: ] and shall I make the residue thereof an abomination? shall I fall down to the stock of a tree?
20 Arigna a mangmangan isuna iti dapo; iyaw-awan isuna ti naallilaw a pusona. Saanna a maisalakan ti baginna, wenno maibagana la koma, “Daytoy a banag nga adda iti makannawan nga imak ket palso a dios.”
He feedeth on ashes: a deceived heart hath turned him aside, that he cannot deliver his soul, nor say, [Is there] not a lie in my right hand?
21 Panunotenyo dagitoy a banbanag, Jacob ken Israel, gapu ta dakayo ket adipenko: Inaramidkayo; dakayo ket adipenko: Israel, saanka a malipatan.
Remember these, O Jacob and Israel; for thou [art] my servant: I have formed thee; thou [art] my servant: O Israel, thou shalt not be forgotten of me.
22 Inikkatko, a kasla maysa a napuskol nga ulep dagiti panagrebrebeldeyo, ken kasla maysa nga ulep, dagiti basbasolyo; agsublikayo kaniak, gapu ta sinubotkayo.
I have blotted out, as a thick cloud, thy transgressions, and, as a cloud, thy sins: return unto me; for I have redeemed thee.
23 Agkantakayo, dakayo a langlangit, gapu ta nagtignay ni Yahweh; agpukkawka, sika nga uneg ti daga; Ipigsayo ti agkanta, dakayo a banbantay, ken dakayo a kabakiran agraman ti tunggal kayo; gapu ta sinubbot ni Yahweh ni Jacob, ken ipakitananto ti dayagna idiay Israel.
Sing, O ye heavens; for the LORD hath done [it: ] shout, ye lower parts of the earth: break forth into singing, ye mountains, O forest, and every tree therein: for the LORD hath redeemed Jacob, and glorified himself in Israel.
24 Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, a Mannubbotyo, a nangbukel kadakayo manipud iti aanakan: “Siak ni Yahweh, a nangaramid iti amin a banag, ti maymaysa a nangiyukrad iti langit, ti maymaysa a nangaramid iti daga.
Thus saith the LORD, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I [am] the LORD that maketh all [things; ] that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself;
25 Siak a mangdadael kadagiti pagilaslasinan dagiti ulbod ken mangibabain kadagiti mammuyon; Siak a mangpakpakuneng iti masirib ken mangar-aramid a minamaag dagiti balakadda.
That frustrateth the tokens of the liars, and maketh diviners mad; that turneth wise [men] backward, and maketh their knowledge foolish;
26 Siak, a ni Yahweh! —a mangtungtungpal kadagiti imbaga ti adipenna ken mangipatpatungpal kadagiti balakad dagiti mensaherona, a mangibagbaga iti Jerusalem, 'Isunanto ti pagnaedanda;' ken kadagiti siudad ti Juda, 'Maipasdekdanto manen, ken tarimaanekto dagiti nadadael a dissona'—
That confirmeth the word of his servant, and performeth the counsel of his messengers; that saith to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be inhabited; and to the cities of Judah, Ye shall be built, and I will raise up the decayed places thereof:
27 a mangibagbaga iti uneg ti baybay, 'Mamagaanka, ken pagmagaekto dagiti dalluyonmo'—
That saith to the deep, Be dry, and I will dry up thy rivers:
28 A mangibagbaga maipanggep kenni Ciro, 'Isuna ti pastorko, aramidennanto dagiti amin a dawatek'—mangipaulogto iti ibiln a maipanggep iti Jerusalem, 'Maibangon manen daytoy,' ken maipanggep iti templo, 'Maipasdek manen dagiti pundasionna.'”
That saith of Cyrus, [He is] my shepherd, and shall perform all my pleasure: even saying to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be built; and to the temple, Thy foundation shall be laid.
