< Isaias 58 >

1 “Agpukkawka iti napigsa, saanka nga agsarsardeng, agpukkawka iti napigsa kas iti trumpeta, tubngarem dagiti tattaok iti panagsukirda, ken ti balay ni Jacob kadagiti basolda.
Make a loud cry, do not be quiet, let your voice be sounding like a horn, and make clear to my people their evil doings, and to the family of Jacob their sins.
2 Nu pay kasta, inaldaw a birbirokendak ken naragsakda iti pannakaammo kadagiti wagasko, a kas iti maysa a nasion a nagaramid iti kinalinteg ket saanda a binaybay-an ti linteg ti Diosda. Agkiddawda kaniak iti nalinteg a panangukom; agrag-oda iti iyaasideg ti Dios.
Though they make prayer to me every day, and take pleasure in the knowledge of my ways: like a nation which has done righteousness, and has not given up the rules of their God, they make requests to me for the right orders, it is their delight to come near to God.
3 ‘Ania ti serbi iti panagayunarmi,' kunada, ‘no saanmo met a makita? Ania ti serbi ti panagpakumbabami, no saanmo met nga ikaskaso?’ Kitaenyo, iti aldaw ti panagayunaryo birbirokenyo ti bukodyo a pakaragsakan ken idaddanesyo dagiti amin a trabahadoryo.
They say, Why have we kept ourselves from food, and you do not see it? why have we kept ourselves from pleasure, and you take no note of it? If, in the days when you keep from food, you take the chance to do your business, and get in your debts;
4 Kitaenyo, agayunarkayo tapno agaapa ken agkikinabilkayo, ken tapno kumabil babaen iti gemgem ti kinadangkes; saankayo nga agay-ayunar ita tapno maipangag ti timekyo idiay langit.
If keeping from food makes you quickly angry, ready for fighting and giving blows with evil hands; your holy days are not such as to make your voice come to my ears on high.
5 Kastoy kadi a kita ti panagayunar ti kayatko: Aldaw para iti siasinoman a mangipakumbaba iti bagina, tapno idumogna ti ulona a kas runo, ken tapno mangiyaplag iti nakersang a lupot ken mangiwarakiwak iti dapu iti pagidaanna? Kastoy kadi ti aw-awaganyo a panagayunar, aldaw a makaay-ayo kenni Yahweh?
Have I given orders for such a day as this? a day for keeping yourselves from pleasure? is it only a question of the bent head, of putting on haircloth, and being seated in the dust? is this what seems to you a holy day, well-pleasing to the Lord?
6 Saan aya a kastoy ti pinilik a panagayunar: Ti panangikkatyo kadagiti kawar ti panangidadanes, ti panangwarwaryo kadagiti tali ti sangol, ti panangwayawayayo kadagiti maparparigat, ken ti panangpugsatyo iti tunggal sangol?
Is not this the holy day for which I have given orders: to let loose those who have wrongly been made prisoners, to undo the bands of the yoke, and to let the crushed go free, and every yoke be broken?
7 Saan aya a ti panangiwarasyo ti tinapayyo iti mabisin ken ti panangpasangbayyo kadagiti marigrigat ken awan balayna?” No adda makitayo a tao a lamo-lamo, rumbeng a kawesanyo, ken masapul a saanyo nga illemmengan dagiti kabagianyo.
Is it not to give your bread to those in need, and to let the poor who have no resting-place come into your house? to put a robe on the unclothed one when you see him, and not to keep your eyes shut for fear of seeing his flesh?
8 Iti kasta, agraniagto ti lawagyo a kasla init iti agsapa, ken mabiitto ti panagimbagyo; umunanto kadakayo ti kinalintegyo, ken ti dayag ni Yahweh ti agbalinto a salaknibyo iti malikudanyo.
Then will light be shining on you like the morning, and your wounds will quickly be well: and your righteousness will go before you, and the glory of the Lord will come after you.
9 Kalpasanna, umawagkayto, ket sumungbat ni Yahweh; agasugkayto nga agkiddaw iti tulong, ket kunaenna, “Adtoyak.” No ikkatenyo ti sangol, ti manangitudo a ramay, ken ti panagsao iti dakes,
Then at the sound of your voice, the Lord will give an answer; at your cry he will say, Here am I. If you take away from among you the yoke, the putting out of the finger of shame, and the evil word;
10 no mangisabetkayo para kadagiti mabisin ken pennekenyo ti kasapulan dagiti nakakaasi; agraniagto ti lawagyo iti kasipngetan, ken agbalinto a kasla aldaw ti kinasipngetyo.
And if you give your bread to those in need of it, so that the troubled one may have his desire; then you will have light in the dark, and your night will be as the full light of the sun:
11 Ket itultuloyto ni Yahweh ti panangidalanna kadakayo ken pennekennakayo kadagiti lugar nga awan iti danum, ken papigsaenna dagiti tulangyo. Maiyarigkayonto iti nasibogan a minuyongan, ken kas iti ubbog, a saan a matianan.
And the Lord will be your guide at all times; in dry places he will give you water in full measure, and will make strong your bones; and you will be like a watered garden, and like an ever-flowing spring.
12 Bangonento dagiti dadduma kadakayo dagiti kadaanan a nadadael; ipatakderyonto dagiti nadadael iti adu a henerasion; maawagankayonto iti “Ti managtarimaan iti pader,” “Ti nangbangon manen kadagiti dalan a pagnaedan.”
And your sons will be building again the old waste places: you will make strong the bases of old generations: and you will be named, He who puts up the broken walls, and, He who makes ready the ways for use.
13 No koma ta gawidanyo ti sakayo iti panagdaliasat iti Aldaw a Panaginana, ken isardengyo ti panangaramid iti bukodyo a pakaragsakan iti nasantoan nga aldawko. No koma ta ibilangyo a panagrag-o ti Aldaw a Panaginana, ken ibilangyo a nasantoan ken natan-ok dagiti banbanag ni Yahweh. No koma ta raraemenyo ti Aldaw a panaginana babaen iti panangibatiyo iti negosyoyo, ken babaen iti saanyo a panangbiruk iti bukodyo a pakaragsakan ken babaen iti saanyo a panangibaga kadagiti bukodyo a sasao.
If you keep the Sabbath with care, not doing your business on my holy day; and if the Sabbath seems to you a delight, and the new moon of the Lord a thing to be honoured; and if you give respect to him by not doing your business, or going after your pleasure, or saying unholy words;
14 “Masarakanyonto ti rag-o kenni Yahweh; ket pasakayennakayto kadagiti nangato a disso iti daga; pakanennakayto manipud iti tawid ni Jacob nga amayo— ta ti ngiwat ni Yahweh ti nangisao.”
Then the Lord will be your delight; and I will put you on the high places of the earth; and I will give you the heritage of Jacob your father: for the mouth of the Lord has said it.
