< Isaias 5 >

1 Agkantaak man a maipaay iti ay-ayatek, maysa a kanta ti ay-ayatek a maipapan iti kaubasanna. Adda kaubasan ti ay-ayatek iti nagdam-eg unay a turod.
Let me sing for my well beloved a song of my beloved about his vineyard. My beloved had a vineyard on a very fruitful hill.
2 Kinalina daytoy ken inikkatna dagiti batbato, ken minulaanna daytoy kadagiti kasasayaatan nga ubas. Nangipatakder isuna iti torre iti tengnga daytoy ken nangipatakder pay iti pagpespesan ti ubas. Namnamaenna nga agbunga koma daytoy kadagiti nasayaat nga ubas ngem nagbunga daytoy iti balang nga ubas.
He dug it up, gathered out its stones, planted it with the choicest vine, built a tower in the middle of it, and also cut out a wine press in it. He looked for it to yield grapes, but it yielded wild grapes.
3 Isu nga ita, dakayo nga agnanaed iti Jerusalem ken tattao ti Juda; dakayo ti mangikeddeng kaniak ken iti kaubasak.
“Now, inhabitants of Jerusalem and men of Judah, please judge between me and my vineyard.
4 Ania pay koma ti rumbeng a naaramid iti kaubasak a saanko nga inaramid? Idi nangnamnamaak nga agbunga daytoy iti nasayaat nga ubas, apay a nagbunga daytoy iti balang nga ubas?
What could have been done more to my vineyard, that I have not done in it? Why, when I looked for it to yield grapes, did it yield wild grapes?
5 Ita, ipakaammok kadakayo no ania ti aramidek iti kaubasak; ikkatekto dagiti mula a pannakaaladna; pagbalinek daytoy a pagpastoran; rebbaekto dagiti paderna, ket mabaddebaddekanto daytoy.
Now I will tell you what I will do to my vineyard. I will take away its hedge, and it will be eaten up. I will break down its wall, and it will be trampled down.
6 Baybay-akto nga agbalin daytoy nga awan serserbina, ken saanto a maputdan wenno maruk-itan daytoy. Ngem agtubonto dagiti ruruot ken sisiit, bilinek pay dagiti ulep a saanda a tudoan daytoy.
I will lay it a wasteland. It will not be pruned or hoed, but it will grow briers and thorns. I will also command the clouds that they rain no rain on it.”
7 Ta ti kaubasan ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin ket ti balay ti Israel, ken dagiti tattao ti Juda ti maiyarig iti nasayaat a mulana; inurayna iti hustisia ngem ketdi panangpapatay ti adda; inurayna iti kinalinteg ngem ketdi, pukkaw a panagpaarayat ti adda.
For the vineyard of the LORD of Armies is the house of Israel, and the men of Judah his pleasant plant. He looked for justice, but behold, oppression, for righteousness, but behold, a cry of distress.
8 Asi pay dagiti agur-urnong kadagiti balbalay, dagiti agur-urnong kadagiti kataltalonan, inggana nga awanen ti mabati a siled, ket dakayo laeng ti mabati iti daga!
Woe to those who join house to house, who lay field to field, until there is no room, and you are made to dwell alone in the middle of the land!
9 Kinunana kaniak ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin, adunto a balbalay ti awan ti nagianna, uray dagiti dadakkel ken dagiti napipintas a balbalay, awanto ti agnaed.
In my ears, the LORD of Armies says: “Surely many houses will be desolate, even great and beautiful, unoccupied.
10 Gapu ta sangagalonto laeng nga arak ti mapataud manipud iti uppat nga ektaria ti kaubasan ken maysanto laeng nga epa ti mapataud iti maysa homer a bin-i a bukel.
For ten acres of vineyard shall yield one bath, and a homer of seed shall yield an ephah.”
11 Asi pay dagiti nasapa nga agririing iti bigat tapno agbiruk iti naingel a mainom; nga agtalinaed a siririing agingga iti tengnga ti rabii, agingga a parugsuen ida ti arak!
Woe to those who rise up early in the morning, that they may follow strong drink, who stay late into the night, until wine inflames them!
12 Agdadayada nga addaan kadagiti arpa, panderata, tamburin, plauta ken arak, ngem saanda a bigbigen ti aramid ni Yahweh, wenno mapanunot dagiti aramid dagiti imana.
The harp, lyre, tambourine, and flute, with wine, are at their feasts; but they do not respect the work of the LORD, neither have they considered the operation of his hands.
13 Ngarud, naipanaw a kas balud dagiti tattaok gapu iti kinakurang ti pannakaawat; agbisin dagiti mangidadaulo kadakuada, ken awan ti mainom dagiti adu a tattao.
Therefore my people go into captivity for lack of knowledge. Their honorable men are famished, and their multitudes are parched with thirst.
14 Isu a naganasan ti patay ket ingngangana iti nalawa unay ti ngiwatna; dagiti mabigbigbig kadakuada, dagiti tattao, dagiti papanguloda, dagiti napalalo nga agragragsak ken dagiti nararagsak kadakuada, umulogdanto idiay Sheol. (Sheol h7585)
Therefore Sheol (Sheol h7585) has enlarged its desire, and opened its mouth without measure; and their glory, their multitude, their pomp, and he who rejoices among them, descend into it.
15 Naibaba ti tao ken naipababa ti natan-ok a tao, ken nagdumog dagiti napalangguad.
So man is brought low, mankind is humbled, and the eyes of the arrogant ones are humbled;
16 Ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin ket naitan-ok gapu iti kinalintegna, ken ipakpakita ti Nasantoan a Dios ti kinasantona babaen iti kinalintegna.
but the LORD of Armies is exalted in justice, and God the Holy One is sanctified in righteousness.
17 Ket agarabto dagiti karnero a kas iti bukodda a pagaraban ken kadagiti nadadael a kinabaknang dagiti tattao ket agarabto dagiti urbon a karnero.
Then the lambs will graze as in their pasture, and strangers will eat the ruins of the rich.
18 Asi pay dagiti mangguyguyod iti kinadakes babaen kadagiti tali ti kina-ubbaw ken dagiti mangguyguyod iti basol babaen iti maysa a tali ti kariton;
Woe to those who draw iniquity with cords of falsehood, and wickedness as with cart rope,
19 dagiti mangibagbaga, “Darasen koma ngarud ni Yahweh, darasenna koma ti agtignay, tapno makitatayo a mapasamak daytoy, ken matungpal koman ti panggep ti Nasantoan a Dios ti Israel, tapno maammoantayo dagitoy!”
who say, “Let him make haste, let him hasten his work, that we may see it; let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw near and come, that we may know it!”
20 Asi pay dagiti mangibagbaga a ti dakes ket nasayaat ken ti nasayaat ket dakes; a mangibagbag nga iti sipnget ket lawag ken ti lawag ket sipnget; a mangibagbaga nga iti napait ket nasam-it ken iti nasam-it ket napait!
Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; who put darkness for light, and light for darkness; who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
21 Asi pay dagiti nasirib kadagiti bukodda a panagkita ken dagiti nasirib kadagiti bukodda a pannakaawat!
Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!
22 Asi pay dagiti nalatak iti panaginom iti arak ken dagiti nalalaing nga agtimpla kadagiti naingel a mainom;
Woe to those who are mighty to drink wine, and champions at mixing strong drink;
23 a mangwayawaya kadagiti nadangkes no mapasuksukonda, ken ipaidamda kadagiti awanan-basol ti kalinteganda!
who acquit the guilty for a bribe, but deny justice for the innocent!
24 Ngarud, kas iti pananguram ti apoy kadagiti punget ti mula, ken kas iti pannakauram iti nagango a ruot, kasta met a malungtot dagiti ramotda, ken maiyangin dagiti sabongda a kasla tapok, gapu ta linaksidda ti linteg ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin, ken inuyawda ti sao ti Nasantoan a Dios ti Israel.
Therefore as the tongue of fire devours the stubble, and as the dry grass sinks down in the flame, so their root shall be as rottenness, and their blossom shall go up as dust, because they have rejected the law of the LORD of Armies, and despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.
25 Ngarud, napasgedan ti pungtot ni Yahweh kadagiti tattaona, ken inyunnatna ti imana a maibusor kadakuada ken dinusana ida; nagpigerger dagiti banbantay, ken dagiti bangkayda ket kasla basura a nagkaiwara kadagiti kalsada. Iti laksid amin dagitoy, saan a bimmaaw ti pungtot ni Yahweh, ngem nakalayat pay laeng ti imana a mangdusa manen.
Therefore the LORD’s anger burns against his people, and he has stretched out his hand against them and has struck them. The mountains tremble, and their dead bodies are as refuse in the middle of the streets. For all this, his anger is not turned away, but his hand is still stretched out.
26 Ingatonanto ti bandera a pagilasinan ti maysa a nasion manipud iti adayo ken paswitanna ida manipud iti pungto ti daga. Kitaenyo, umayda a dagus ken sipapardas.
He will lift up a banner to the nations from far away, and he will whistle for them from the end of the earth. Behold, they will come speedily and swiftly.
27 Awan kadakuada ti mabannog wenno maitibkol; awan ti makaridep wenno makaturog; wenno malukayan dagiti barikesda, wenno mapugsat ti galut dagiti sandaliasda,
No one shall be weary nor stumble among them; no one shall slumber nor sleep, neither shall the belt of their waist be untied, nor the strap of their sandals be broken,
28 natirad dagiti panada ken naibiat amin dagiti baida, kasla landok dagiti kuko dagiti kabalioda, ken kasla bagyo dagiti pilid ti karwaheda.
whose arrows are sharp, and all their bows bent. Their horses’ hoofs will be like flint, and their wheels like a whirlwind.
29 Kaslanto ngenger iti leon ti ngerngerda, agngerngerdanto a kas kadagiti ubbing a leon. Agngerngerdanto sada tiliwen ti anupenda, ket iguyoddanto daytoy nga iyadayo, nga awan ti mangispal.
Their roaring will be like a lioness. They will roar like young lions. Yes, they shall roar, and seize their prey and carry it off, and there will be no one to deliver.
30 Iti dayta nga aldaw, ngerngerandanto ti anupenda a kas iti daranudor iti baybay. No adda mangtannawag iti daga, kinasipnget ken panagsagaba ti makitada, ket langibanto ti nangisit nga ulep ti lawag.
They will roar against them in that day like the roaring of the sea. If one looks to the land, behold, darkness and distress. The light is darkened in its clouds.
