< Isaias 54 >
1 Agkantaka, sika a lupes a babai; sika a saan a nagpasngay; agkantaka a sirarag-o ken agsangitka iti napigsa, sika a saan pay pulos a nagpasikal. Ta dagiti annak ti nabaybay-an a babai ket ad-adunto ngem kadagiti annak ti naasawaan a babai,” kuna ni Yahweh.
“Sing, barren, you who did not give birth! Break out into singing, and cry aloud, you who did not travail with child! For more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife,” says the LORD.
2 Palawaem ti toldam ken iyukradmo dagiti kurtina ti toldam; paatidogem dagiti talim ken palagdaem dagiti pasokmo.
“Enlarge the place of your tent, and let them stretch out the curtains of your habitations; do not spare; lengthen your cords, and strengthen your stakes.
3 Ta maiyukradkanto iti makanawan ken iti makanigid, ken parmekento dagiti kaputotam dagiti nasion ken agnaeddanto manen kadagiti langalang a siudad.
For you will spread out on the right hand and on the left; and your offspring will possess the nations and settle in desolate cities.
4 Saanka nga agbuteng ta saankanton a mabainan, wenno maupay ta saankanto a maibabain; malipatamto ti pannakaibabain ti kinaagtutubom ken ti pannakaibabain ti pannakabaybay-am.
“Do not be afraid, for you will not be ashamed. Do not be confounded, for you will not be disappointed. For you will forget the shame of your youth. You will remember the reproach of your widowhood no more.
5 Ta ti Nangparsua kenka ket isu ti asawam; ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin ti naganna. Ti Nasantoan ti Israel ket isu ti Mannubotmo; maawagan isuna a Dios ti sangalubongan.
For your Maker is your husband; the LORD of Armies is his name. The Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer. He will be called the God of the whole earth.
6 Ta inayabannaka manen ni Yahweh kas asawa a nabaybay-an ken agladladingit iti espiritu, kas iti babai nga ubing a nakiasawa ken nailaksid, kuna ti Diosmo.
For the LORD has called you as a wife forsaken and grieved in spirit, even a wife of youth, when she is cast off,” says your God.
7 “Binaybay-anka iti apagbiit a tiempo, ngem babaen iti dakkel nga asi alaenkanto.
“For a small moment I have forsaken you, but I will gather you with great mercies.
8 Iti nakaro a pungtotko inlingedko ti rupak kenka iti apagkanito; ngem babaen iti agnanayon a kinapudnok iti tulagko kaasiankanto-kuna ni Yahweh, a mangisalakan mo.
In overflowing wrath I hid my face from you for a moment, but with everlasting loving kindness I will have mercy on you,” says the LORD your Redeemer.
9 Ta daytoy ket kas kadagiti dandanum ni Noe kaniak: kas iti panangisapatak a saanen a layusen ti dandanum ni Noe ti daga, kasta met ti panangisapatak a saankanton nga ungtan wenno tubngaren.
“For this is like the waters of Noah to me; for as I have sworn that the waters of Noah will no more go over the earth, so I have sworn that I will not be angry with you, nor rebuke you.
10 Ta uray no matuang dagiti bantay ken magungon dagiti turod, ngem saanto a maisina kenka ti kinapudno ti tulagko, wenno saanto a magungon ti tulagko a pannakikappia- kuna ni Yahweh, a naasi kenka.
For the mountains may depart, and the hills be removed, but my loving kindness will not depart from you, and my covenant of peace will not be removed,” says the LORD who has mercy on you.
11 Sika a nagsagaba, a kasla pinarparigat iti bagyo ken saan a naliwliwa, kitaem, bangonekto manen ti siudadmo babaen kadagiti agkakapateg a batbato, ken ikabilkonto dagiti pundasionmo babaen iti bato a sapiro.
“You afflicted, tossed with storms, and not comforted, behold, I will set your stones in beautiful colors, and lay your foundations with sapphires.
12 Aramidekto dagiti torrem babaen iti bato a rubi ken rumimrimat a batbato dagiti ruangam, ken napipintas a batbato dagiti akinruar a padermo.
I will make your pinnacles of rubies, your gates of sparkling jewels, and all your walls of precious stones.
13 Ket suruanto ni Yahweh dagiti amin nga annakmo; ket dakkelto ti talna dagiti annakmo.
All your children will be taught by the LORD, and your children’s peace will be great.
14 Bangonenkanto manen iti kinalinteg. Saanmonto a pulos a mapadas ti pannakaidaddanes, ta saankanton a mabuteng, ken awanto iti nakabutbuteng nga umasideg kenka.
You will be established in righteousness. You will be far from oppression, for you will not be afraid, and far from terror, for it shall not come near you.
15 Kitaem, no adda ti mangpataud iti riribuk, saanto daytoy a nagtaud kaniak; siasinoman a mangpataud iti riribuk kenka ket maparmekto.
Behold, they may gather together, but not by me. Whoever gathers together against you will fall because of you.
16 Kitaem, pinarsuak ti mammanday, a mangpasged kadagiti beggang ket agpanday kadagiti armas a kas trabahona, ken pinarsuak ti manangdadael tapno mangdadael.
“Behold, I have created the blacksmith who fans the coals into flame, and forges a weapon for his work; and I have created the destroyer to destroy.
17 Awan ti naaramid nga armas nga agballigi a maibusor kenka; ket kedngamto iti pannakadusa ti siasinoman a mangakusar kenka. Daytoy ti tawid dagiti adipen ni Yahweh, ken ti pannangikalintegak kadakuada —kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.”
No weapon that is formed against you will prevail; and you will condemn every tongue that rises against you in judgment. This is the heritage of the LORD’s servants, and their righteousness is of me,” says the LORD.
