< Isaias 49 >

1 Dumngegkayo kaniak, dakayo nga isla! Ket ipangagyo, dakayo a tattao nga adda iti adayo. Inawagannak ni Yahweh sipud pannakaiyanakko babaen iti naganko, idi impasngaynak ti inak ditoy lubong.
Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; Yhwh hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name.
2 Inaramidna a kasla natadem a kampilan ti ngiwatko; inlemmengnak iti anniniwan ti imana; inaramidnak a maysa a napasileng a pana; inlemmengnak iti tagubanna.
And he hath made my mouth like a sharp sword; in the shadow of his hand hath he hid me, and made me a polished shaft; in his quiver hath he hid me;
3 Kinunana kaniak, “Sika ti adipenko, Israel, a pangipakitaak iti dayagko.”
And said unto me, Thou art my servant, O Israel, in whom I will be glorified.
4 Uray no impagarupko nga awan serbi ti inaramidko, a nagbannogak iti awan kaes-eskanna, Uray no kasta, ti hustisiak ket adda kenni Yahweh, ken ti gunggonak ket adda iti Diosko.
Then I said, I have laboured in vain, I have spent my strength for nought, and in vain: yet surely my judgment is with Yhwh, and my work with my God.
5 Ket ita nagsaon ni Yahweh, isuna a nangsukog kaniak sipud pannakaiyanakko nga agbalin nga adipenna, tapno maisubli manen kenkuana ni Jacob, ken tapno maisubli ti Israel kenkuana. Napadayawanak iti imatang ni Yahweh, ket ti Diosko ti nagbalin a pigsak.
And now, saith Yhwh that formed me from the womb to be his servant, to bring Jacob again to him, Though Israel be not gathered, yet shall I be glorious in the eyes of Yhwh, and my God shall be my strength.
6 Kunana a, “Bassit unay a banag para kenka ti agbalin nga adipenko a mangipasdek manen kadagiti tribu ni Jacob, ken mangisubli kadagiti nakalasat iti Israel. Pagbalinenkanto a silaw kadagiti Hentil, tapno agbalinka a mangisalakanko agingga kadagiti pungto ti daga.”
And he said, It is a light thing that thou shouldest be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved of Israel: I will also give thee for a light to the Gentiles, that thou mayest be my salvation unto the end of the earth.
7 Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, a Mannubbot ti Israel, a Nasantoan, iti daydiay naumsi ti biagna a kinagura dagiti nasion, ken adipen dagiti agtuturay, “Makitadakanto dagiti ari ket tumakderda, ken makitadakanto dagiti prinsipe ket agtameddanto gapu kenni Yahweh a napudno, ken Nasantoan ti Israel, a nangpili kenka.”
Thus saith Yhwh, the Redeemer of Israel, and his Holy One, to him whom man despiseth, to him whom the nation abhorreth, to a servant of rulers, Kings shall see and arise, princes also shall worship, because of Yhwh that is faithful, and the Holy One of Israel, and he shall choose thee.
8 Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, “Inton dumteng ti kanito nga ingkeddengko a pangipakitaak iti kinasayaatko kenka, sungbatankayto, ken iti aldaw ti pannakaisalakan, tulongankanto; salaknibankanto, ken itedkanto a kas tulag kadagiti tattao, a mangbangon manen iti daga, tapno ited manen ti langalang a tawid.
Thus saith Yhwh, In an acceptable time have I heard thee, and in a day of salvation have I helped thee: and I will preserve thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, to establish the earth, to cause to inherit the desolate heritages;
9 Ibagamto kadagiti balud, 'Rummuarkayo;' kadagiti adda iti nasipnget a pagbaludan, 'Agparangkayo.' Agarabdanto iti igid dagiti dalan, ken kadagiti amin a tapaw ti langalang a turod ti pakaipasturandanto.
That thou mayest say to the prisoners, Go forth; to them that are in darkness, Shew yourselves. They shall feed in the ways, and their pastures shall be in all high places.
10 Saandanto a mabisin wenno mawaw; wenno mapudotan iti init, ta idalanto ida ti mangngaasi kadakuada; iturongnanto ida kadagiti ubbog ti danum.
They shall not hunger nor thirst; neither shall the heat nor sun smite them: for he that hath mercy on them shall lead them, even by the springs of water shall he guide them.
11 Ket pagbalinekto a kalsada dagiti amin a bantayko, ken pagbalinekto a patad dagiti kalsadak.”
And I will make all my mountains a way, and my highways shall be exalted.
12 Kitaem, aggapunto dagitoy iti adayo, adda naggapu iti amianan ken iti laud; ken naggapu dagiti dadduma iti daga ti Sinim.
Behold, these shall come from far: and, lo, these from the north and from the west; and these from the land of Sinim.
13 Agkantakayo, O langlangit, ken agrag-oka, O daga, agkantakayo, dakayo a banbantay! Ta liwliwaen ni Yahweh dagiti tattaona, ket kaasiannanto dagiti agsagsagaba.
Sing, O heavens; and be joyful, O earth; and break forth into singing, O mountains: for Yhwh hath comforted his people, and will have mercy upon his afflicted.
14 Ngem kinuna ti Sion, “Binaybay-annak ni Yahweh, ken linipatnak ti Apo.”
But Zion said, Yhwh hath forsaken me, and my Lord hath forgotten me.
15 “Malipatan kadi ti babai ti maladagana, a paspasusoenna iti barukongna, isu a saanna a kaasian ti impasngayna nga anakna? Wen, mabalin a malipatanda, ngem saankayonto a malipatan.
Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee.
16 Kitaem, inkitikitko ti naganyo kadagiti dakulapko; adda a kanayon iti sangoanak dagiti padermo.
Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands; thy walls are continually before me.
17 Agdardaras nga agsubli dagiti annakmo, kabayatan nga umad-adayo dagiti nangdadael kenka.
Thy children shall make haste; thy destroyers and they that made thee waste shall go forth from thee.
18 Kumitaka iti aglawlawmo ket makitam, aguummongda amin nga um-umay kenka. Iti isapatak—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—nga usaremto dagitoy a kasla alahas; isuotmonto dagitoy, a kas iti maysa a nobia.
Lift up thine eyes round about, and behold: all these gather themselves together, and come to thee. As I live, saith Yhwh, thou shalt surely clothe thee with them all, as with an ornament, and bind them on thee, as a bride doeth.
19 Uray no naglangalang ken nabaybay-anka, maysa a nadadael a daga, ita agbalinka a bassit unay para kadagiti agnanaed, ket maidayonto dagiti nangdadael kenka.
For thy waste and thy desolate places, and the land of thy destruction, shall even now be too narrow by reason of the inhabitants, and they that swallowed thee up shall be far away.
20 Kunaento kenka dagiti ubbing a maiyanak iti tiempo ti pannakaulilak 'Nailet unay daytoy a lugar para kadakami, iyaramidannakami iti siled tapno makapagnaedkami ditoy.'
The children which thou shalt have, after thou hast lost the other, shall say again in thine ears, The place is too strait for me: give place to me that I may dwell.
21 Ket damagemto iti bagim, “Siasino ti nangipasngay kadagitoy nga ubbing para kaniak? Naulilaak iti annak ken saanakon a makaanak, naipanaw kas balud ken naisina. Siasino ti nangpadakkel kadagitoy nga ubbing? Kitaem, nabatiak nga agmaymaysa; sadino ti naggapuan dagitoy?'”
Then shalt thou say in thine heart, Who hath begotten me these, seeing I have lost my children, and am desolate, a captive, and removing to and fro? and who hath brought up these? Behold, I was left alone; these, where had they been?
22 Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh nga Apo, “Kitaem, Ingatokto ti imak kadagiti nasion; ingatokto ti banderak a pagilasinan dagiti tattao. Ubbaendanto nga iyeg dagiti annakmo a lallaki ken sallabayendanto dagiti annakmo a babbai.
Thus saith the Lord Yhwh, Behold, I will lift up mine hand to the Gentiles, and set up my standard to the people: and they shall bring thy sons in their arms, and thy daughters shall be carried upon their shoulders.
23 Dagitinto ari ti pannakaamam, ken dagitinto reynada ti mangaywan kenka; agkurnodanto kenka a nakadekket ti rupada iti daga ket dilpatandanto ti tapok kadagiti sakam; ket maammoamto a siak ni Yahweh; dagiti a makauray kaniak ket saanto a maibabain.”
And kings shall be thy nursing fathers, and their queens thy nursing mothers: they shall bow down to thee with their face toward the earth, and lick up the dust of thy feet; and thou shalt know that I am Yhwh: for they shall not be ashamed that wait for me.
24 Maala kadi dagiti nasamsam manipud kadagiti mannakigubat, wenno maispal kadi dagiti balud manipud iti nauyong nga agturay?
Shall the prey be taken from the mighty, or the lawful captive delivered?
25 Ngem kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, “Wen, maitalawto dagiti balud manipud kadagiti mannakigubat ken maisublinto dagiti sinamsam gapu ta karangetkonto ti kabusormo ken isalakanko dagiti annakmo.
But thus saith Yhwh, Even the captives of the mighty shall be taken away, and the prey of the terrible shall be delivered: for I will contend with him that contendeth with thee, and I will save thy children.
26 Ket ipakankonto kadagiti mangparparigat kenka ti bukodda a lasag; ken mabartekdanto iti bukodda a dara, a kasla la daytoy ket arak; ket maammoanto ti amin a sangkataoan a siak, a ni Yahweh, ti Mangisalakanmo ken ti Mannubbotmo, ti Mannakabalin a Dios ni Jacob.”
And I will feed them that oppress thee with their own flesh; and they shall be drunken with their own blood, as with sweet wine: and all flesh shall know that I Yhwh am thy Saviour and thy Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob.
