< 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.
I will sing for my beloved a song of his vineyard: My beloved had a vineyard on a very fertile 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 and cleared the stones and planted the finest vines. He built a watchtower in the middle and dug out a winepress as well. He waited for the vineyard to yield good grapes, but the fruit it produced was sour!
3 Isu nga ita, dakayo nga agnanaed iti Jerusalem ken tattao ti Juda; dakayo ti mangikeddeng kaniak ken iti kaubasak.
“And now, O dwellers of Jerusalem and men of Judah, I exhort you to 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 more could I have done for My vineyard than I already did for it? Why, when I expected sweet grapes, did it bring forth sour fruit?
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 am about to do to My vineyard: I will take away its hedge, and it will be consumed; I will tear down its wall, and it will be trampled.
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 make it a wasteland, neither pruned nor cultivated, and thorns and briers will grow up. I will command the clouds that rain shall not fall 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 Hosts is the house of Israel, and the men of Judah are the plant of His delight. He looked for justice, but saw bloodshed; for righteousness, but heard 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 you who add house to house and join field to field until no place is left and you live alone in 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.
I heard the LORD of Hosts declare: “Surely many houses will become desolate, great mansions left 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 will yield but a bath of wine, and a homer of seed only an ephah of grain.”
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 early in the morning in pursuit of strong drink, who linger into the evening, to be inflamed by wine.
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.
At their feasts are the lyre and harp, tambourines and flutes and wine. They disregard the actions of the LORD and fail to see the work 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 will go into exile for their lack of understanding; their dignitaries are starving and their masses 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 )
Therefore Sheol enlarges its throat and opens wide its enormous jaws, and down go Zion’s nobles and masses, her revelers and carousers! (Sheol )
15 Naibaba ti tao ken naipababa ti natan-ok a tao, ken nagdumog dagiti napalangguad.
So mankind will be brought low, and each man humbled; the arrogant will lower their eyes.
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 Hosts will be exalted by His justice, and the holy God will show Himself holy 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.
Lambs will graze as in their own pastures, and strangers will feed in the ruins of the wealthy.
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 deceit and pull sin along with cart ropes,
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!”
to those who say, “Let Him hurry and hasten His work so that we may see it! Let the plan of the Holy One of Israel come so 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 turn darkness to light and light to darkness, who replace bitter with sweet and sweet with 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 clever 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 heroes in drinking wine and champions in mixing beer,
23 a mangwayawaya kadagiti nadangkes no mapasuksukonda, ken ipaidamda kadagiti awanan-basol ti kalinteganda!
who acquit the guilty for a bribe and deprive the innocent of justice.
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 a tongue of fire consumes the straw, and as dry grass shrivels in the flame, so their roots will decay and their blossoms will blow away like dust; for they have rejected the instruction of the LORD of Hosts 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 anger of the LORD burns against His people; His hand is raised against them to strike them down. The mountains quake, and the corpses lay like refuse in the streets. Despite all this, His anger is not turned away; His hand is still upraised.
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 lifts a banner for the distant nations and whistles for those at the ends of the earth. Behold—how speedily and swiftly they come!
27 Awan kadakuada ti mabannog wenno maitibkol; awan ti makaridep wenno makaturog; wenno malukayan dagiti barikesda, wenno mapugsat ti galut dagiti sandaliasda,
None of them grows weary or stumbles; no one slumbers or sleeps. No belt is loose and no sandal strap is broken.
28 natirad dagiti panada ken naibiat amin dagiti baida, kasla landok dagiti kuko dagiti kabalioda, ken kasla bagyo dagiti pilid ti karwaheda.
Their arrows are sharpened, and all their bows are strung. The hooves of their horses are like flint; their chariot wheels are 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 is like that of a lion; they roar like young lions. They growl and seize their prey; they carry it away from deliverance.
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.
In that day they will roar over it, like the roaring of the sea. If one looks over the land, he will see darkness and distress; even the light will be obscured by clouds.
