< Isaias 55 >

1 “Umaykayo, dakayo amin a mawaw, umaykayo iti danum! Ken, dakayo nga awan kuartana umaykayo, gumatangkayo ken mangankayo! Umaykayo, gumatangkayo iti arak ken gatas uray awan kuarta ken awan iti pagbayadyo.
All you who thirst, come to the waters. And you who have no money: hurry, buy and eat. Approach, buy wine and milk, without money and without barter.
2 Apay a mangtimbankayo iti pirak para iti saan a tinapay? Ken agtrabahokayo para iti saan a makapnek? Dumngegkayo a nasayaat kaniak ket mapnekayo, a kasla mangankayo iti kaimasan a taraon.
Why do you spend money for what is not bread, and expend your labor for what does not satisfy? Listen very closely to me, and eat what is good, and then your soul will be delighted by a full measure.
3 Dumngegkayo ket umaykayo kaniak! Dumngegkayo, tapno agbiagkayo! Pudno a makitulagak kadakayo iti agnanayon a tulag, iti napudno a tulag a naited kenni David.
Incline your ear and draw near to me. Listen, and your soul will live. And I will make an everlasting covenant with you, by the faithful mercies of David.
4 Kitaenyo, insaadko isuna a kas saksi kadagiti nasion, a kas pangulo ken mangidadaulo kadagiti tattao.
Behold, I have presented him as a witness to the people, as a commander and instructor to the nations.
5 Kitaenyo, umawagkayonto iti nasion a saanyo nga am-ammo; ken agtarayto nga agturong kadakayo ti nasion a saan a makaam-ammo kadakayo gapu kenni Yahweh a Diosyo, a Nasantoan ti Israel, a nangpadayaw kadakayo.”
Behold, you will call to a nation that you did not know. And nations that did not know you will rush to you, because of the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel. For he has glorified you.
6 Birokenyo ni Yahweh kabayatan a mabirukan pay laeng isuna; umawagkayo kenkuana bayat nga asideg isuna.
Seek the Lord, while he is able to be found. Call upon him, while he is near.
7 Panawan koma ti nadangkes ti dalanna, ken ti managbasol a tao ti panunotna. Agsubli koma isuna kenni Yahweh, ket kaasiannanto isuna, ken iti Diostayo, a mangpakawanto kenkuana.
Let the impious one abandon his way, and the iniquitous man his thoughts, and let him return to the Lord, and he will take pity on him, and to our God, for he is great in forgiveness.
8 “Ta ti panunotko ket saan a kas iti panunotmo, kasta met a dagiti wagasmo ket saanko a wagas—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—
For my thoughts are not your thoughts, and your ways are not my ways, says the Lord.
9 ta no kasano a nangatngato dagiti langit ngem ti daga, kasta met a nangatngato dagiti wagasko ngem dagiti wagasmo, ken dagiti kapanunotak ngem dagiti kapanunotam.
For just as the heavens are exalted above the earth, so also are my ways exalted above your ways, and my thoughts above your thoughts.
10 Ta no kasano nga agtinnag ti tudo ken niebe manipud langit ket saan nga agsubli sadiay no di ket sibuganda ti daga ket pagtuboenda ti bukel a lumangto ket mangipaay iti bukel kadagiti agmulmula ken tinapay kadagiti mangmangan,
And in the same manner as rain and snow descend from heaven, and no longer return there, but soak the earth, and water it, and cause it to bloom and to provide seed to the sower and bread to the hungry,
11 kastanto met ti sao a rummuar iti ngiwatko: saan daytoy nga agsubli kaniak nga awan serserbina, ngem tungpalen daytoy ti tarigagayko, ken agballiginto daytoy iti nangibaonak.
so also will my word be, which will go forth from my mouth. It will not return to me empty, but it will accomplish whatever I will, and it will prosper in the tasks for which I sent it.
12 Ta rummuarkayonto nga addaan rag-o ken maiturongkayonto a sitatalna; agpukkawto a sirarag-o dagiti bantay ken dagiti turod iti sangoananyo, ken agpalakpakto dagiti ima dagiti amin a kayo iti tay-ak.
For you will go forth rejoicing, and you will be led forward in peace. The mountains and the hills will sing praise before you, and all the trees of the countryside will clap their hands.
13 Imbes a dagiti sisiitan, agtubonto dagiti kayo; ken imbes a dagiti kalkalunay, agtubonto dagiti kayo nga arrayan, ket maipaayto daytoy kenni Yahweh, para iti naganna, a kas agnanayon a pagilasinan a saanto a mapukaw.”
In place of the shrub, the pine tree will arise, and in place of the nettle, the myrtle tree will grow. And the Lord will be named with an eternal sign, which will not be taken away.
