Isaias 57

1 Mapukaw ti nalinteg, ngem awan ti mangikaskaso iti daytoy, ken naipanaw met dagiti tattao ti tulag iti kinapudno, ngem awan ti makaawat a naipanaw dagiti nalinteg manipud iti dakes.

The righteous man perishes, and no man lays it to heart. And merciful men are taken away; none considering that the righteous man is taken away from the evil.

2 Sumrek isuna iti talna; aginanada kadagiti pagiddaanda, dagiti magna iti kinalintegda.

He enters into peace. They rest in their beds, each one who walks in his uprightness.

3 Ngem umasidegkayo, dakayo nga annak dagiti manggagamud, annak dagiti mannakikamalala ken ti babai a balangkantis.

But draw near here, ye sons of the sorceress, the seed of the adulterer and the harlot.

4 Siasino ti lalaisenyo a siraragsak? Siasino ti pangingangangaanyo iti ngiwat ken guyguyabanyo? Saan kadi nga annakdakayo ti panaglabsing, annak ti panangallilaw?

Against whom do ye sport yourselves, against whom ye make a wide mouth, and put out the tongue? Are ye not children of transgression, a seed of falsehood,

5 Pappapudutennyo dagiti bagiyo iti pannakikakaidda iti sirok dagiti lugo, iti sirok ti tunggal nalangto a kayo, dakayo a mangpappapatay kadagiti annakyo iti namaga a karayan, iti sirok dagiti rengngat ti bato.

ye who inflame yourselves among the oaks, under every green tree, who kill the children in the valleys, under the clefts of the rocks?

6 Kadagiti nalamuyot a banbanag iti igid ti karayan ket dagiti banbanag a naited kadakayo. Dagitoy dagiti banbanag a daydayawenyo. Manggibukbukbokkayo iti daton a mainum kadagitoy ken mangitagtag-aykayo iti datonyo a bukel. Kadagitoy a banbanag kadi ti pakaragsakak?

Among the smooth stones of the valley is thy portion. They, they are thy lot, even to them thou have poured a drink offering; thou have offered an oblation. Shall I be appeased for these things?

7 Insaganam ti pagiddaam iti tapaw ti nangato a bantay; simmang-atka pay sadiay tapno mangidaton kadagiti sagut.

Upon a high and lofty mountain thou have set thy bed. Thou also went up there to offer sacrifice.

8 Iti likudan ti ruangan ken ad-adigi nangikabilka kadagiti pagilasinan; tinallikudannak, naglabuska ket kimmalay-atka; pinalawam ti pagiddaam. Nakitulagka kadakuada; impategmo dagiti pagiddaanda; nakitam dagiti mabagbagida.

And behind the doors and the posts thou have set up thy memorial. For thou have uncovered thyself to another than me, and have gone up. Thou have enlarged thy bed, and made thee a covenant with them. Thou loved their bed where thou saw it.

9 Napanka iti ari nga addaan iti lana; pinaadom dagiti bangbanglo. Imbaonmo dagiti babaonem iti adayo; bimmabaka iti lubong dagiti natay. (Sheol h7585)

And thou went to the king with oil, and increased thy perfumes, and sent thine ambassadors far off, and debased thyself even to Sheol. (Sheol h7585)

10 Nabannogka iti adayo a panagdaliasatmo, ngem pulos a saanmo a kinuna, “Awan namnamana.” Nakasarakka iti biag kadagiti imam; ngarud saanka a kimmapoy.

Thou were wearied with the length of thy way, yet thou did not say, It is in vain. Thou found a quickening of thy strength, therefore thou were not faint.

11 “Siasino ti pagdandanagam? Siasino ti pagbutbutngam iti kasta unay a namagtignay kenka iti inaallilaw, iti kasta unay ket saannakon a malagip wenno mapanunot? Gapu ta naulimekak iti nabayag, saankan nga agbutbuteng kaniak.

And of whom have thou been afraid and in fear, that thou lie, and have not remembered me, nor laid it to thy heart? Have I not held my peace even of long time, and thou do not fear me?

12 Ipakaammok dagiti amin a nalinteg nga aramidmo ken ibagak dagiti amin nga inaramidmo, ngem saandakanto a matulungan.

I will declare thy righteousness. And as for thy works, they shall not profit thee.

13 Inton umasugka, ispalennaka koma ngarud dagiti inurnongmo a didiosen. Ngem ketdi ipanaw ida amin ti angin, ipanaw ida amin ti maysa nga anges. Ngem ti agkamang kaniak ket tawidennanto ti daga ken tagikuaenanto ti nasantoan a bantayko.

When thou cry, let those whom thou have gathered deliver thee. But the wind shall take them; a breath shall carry them all away. But he who takes refuge in me shall possess the land, and shall inherit my holy mountain.

14 Ibagananto, 'Mangaramid, mangaramid! Dalusanyo ti dalan! Ikkatenyo dagiti amin a pakaitibkulan dagiti tattaok!'''

And he will say, Cast ye up, cast ye up, prepare the way. Take up the stumbling-block out of the way of my people.

15 Ta kastoy ti kuna ti nangato ken Natan-ok, a sibibiag iti agnanayon, a nasantoan ti naganna, “Agnanaedak iti nangato ken nasantoan a lugar, kasta met kenkuana a napakumbaba ken mangak-aklon nga adda basolna, tapno isublik ti espiritu dagiti napakumbaba, ken tapno papigsaek ti puso dagiti agbabbabawi.

For thus says the high and lofty One who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: I dwell in the high and holy place, also with him who is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite.

16 Ta saanakto a mang-usig iti agnanayon, wenno agunget iti agnanayon, ta kumapoy ti espiritu ti tao iti sangoanak, dagiti biag a pinarsuak.

For I will not contend forever, nor will I always be angry, for the spirit would faint before me, and the souls that I have made.

17 Gapu iti basol iti kinaranggasna, nagungetak, ket dinusak isuna; inlingedko ti rupak ken nagungetak, ngem nagsubli isuna iti dalan ti pusona.

For the iniquity of his covetousness I was angry, and smote him. I hid my face and was angry, and he went on backsliding in the way of his heart.

18 Nakitak dagiti wagasna, ngem paimbagekto isuna. Idalanko isuna, liwliwaek ken patibkerek dagiti agladladingit gapu kenkuana,

I have seen his ways, and will heal him. I will lead him also, and restore comforts to him and to his mourners.

19 ken parsuaek ti bunga dagiti bibig. Kappia, kappia kadagiti adda iti adayo ken kadagiti asideg—kuna ni Yahweh—Paimbagekto ida.

I create the fruit of the lips. Peace, peace, to him who is far off and to him who is near, says Jehovah, and I will heal him.

20 Ngem maiyarig dagiti nadangkes iti nadawel a baybay, a saan a mabalin nga aginana, ken mangipurpurruak dagiti danumna iti pitak.

But the wicked are like the troubled sea, for it cannot rest, and its waters cast up mire and dirt.

21 Awan talna para kadagiti nadangkes—kuna ti Dios.”

There is no peace, says my God, to the wicked.
