Isaias 56
1 Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, “Ammoenyo ti nasayaat, aramidenyo ti nalinteg; ta asidegen ti panangisalakanko, ken maipakaammonto ti kinalintegko.
Thus saith the LORD: Keep ye justice, and do righteousness; for My salvation is near to come, and My favour to be revealed.
2 Nagasat ti tao a mangar-aramid iti daytoy, ken ti siasinoman a mangsalsalimetmet iti daytoy. Ngilngilinenna ti Aldaw a Panaginana, saanna daytoy a tulawan, ken likliklikanna nga agaramid iti kinadakes.”
Happy is the man that doeth this, and the son of man that holdeth fast by it: that keepeth the sabbath from profaning it, and keepeth his hand from doing any evil.
3 Saan koma nga ibaga ti gangannaet a nagbalin nga adipen ni Yahweh nga, “Ilaksidnakto ni Yahweh manipud kadagti tattaona.” Masapul a saan nga ibaga ti eunoko a, “Kitaenyo, maysaak a nagango a kayo.”
Neither let the alien, that hath joined himself to the LORD, speak, saying: 'The LORD will surely separate me from His people'; neither let the eunuch say: 'Behold, I am a dry tree.'
4 Ta kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, “Kadagiti eunoko nga agngilngilin iti Aldaw ti Panaginana ken mangpilpili iti makaay-ayo kaniak, ken mangsalimetmet iti tulagko—
For thus saith the LORD concerning the eunuchs that keep My sabbaths, and choose the things that please Me, and hold fast by My covenant:
5 Para kadakuada, ikabilkonto iti uneg ti balayko ken iti uneg dagiti paderko ti maysa a pakalaglagipan a nasaysayaat ngem iti addaan kadagiti annak a lallaki ken babbai; ikkakto ida iti agnanayon a pakalaglagipan a saanto a mapukaw.”
Even unto them will I give in My house and within My walls a monument and a memorial better than sons and daughters; I will give them an everlasting memorial, that shall not be cut off.
6 Kasta met dagiti gangannaet a makipagmaymaysa kenni Yahweh, tapno agserbi kenkuana, ken dagiti mangipatpateg iti nagan ni Yahweh, a mangidayaw kenkuana, amin nga agngilngilin iti Aldaw ti Panagina ken dagiti mangliklik a mangtulaw iti daytoy, ken dagiti mangsalsalimetmet iti tulagko,
Also the aliens, that join themselves to the LORD, to minister unto Him, and to love the name of the LORD, to be His servants, every one that keepeth the sabbath from profaning it, and holdeth fast by My covenant:
7 “Ipankonto ida iti nasantoan a bantayko ken pagrag-oekto ida iti balayko a pagkararagan; maawatto dagiti datonda a maipuor ken dagiti sakripisioda iti altarko. Ta maawaganto ti balayko iti balay ti kararag nga agpaay kadagiti amin a nasion,
Even them will I bring to My holy mountain, and make them joyful in My house of prayer; their burnt-offerings and their sacrifices shall be acceptable upon Mine altar; for My house shall be called a house of prayer for all peoples.
8 kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh nga Apo, a mangum-ummong kadagiti napapanaw iti Israel—Ummongekto pay dagiti dadduma a mainayon kadakuada.”
Saith the Lord GOD who gathereth the dispersed of Israel: Yet I will gather others to him, beside those of him that are gathered.
9 Dakayo amin a narungsot nga ayup iti tay-ak, umaykayo a mangalun-on, dakayo amin a narungsot nga ayup iti kabakiran!
All ye beasts of the field, come to devour, yea, all ye beasts in the forest.
10 Bulsek amin a taga-bantayda; saanda a makaawat; kasda la aso nga awan am-ammona; saanda a makataul: agtagtagainep, agid-idda, pagaayatna ti maturog.
His watchmen are all blind, without knowledge; they are all dumb dogs, they cannot bark; raving, lying down, loving to slumber.
11 Narawet dagiti aso; saanda pulos a mapnek; kasda la agpaspastor nga awanan pannakaawat; nagturongda amin iti bukodda a dalan, ag-aguman ti tunggal maysa dagiti awan serserbina.
Yea, the dogs are greedy, they know not when they have enough; and these are shepherds that cannot understand; they all turn to their own way, each one to his gain, one and all.
12 “Umayka” kunada, “Aginumtayo iti arak ken naingel a mainum; kastoyto manen inton bigat, maysa nga aldaw nga awan pakaiyaspinganna.”
'Come ye, I will fetch wine, and we will fill ourselves with strong drink; and to-morrow shall be as this day, and much more abundant.'
