Isaias 59
1 Kitaenyo! Dakayo nga Israelita, saan a naababa ti ima ni Yahweh tapno saan a makaisalakan; wenno saan a tuleng ti lapayagna tapno saan a makangngeg.
Behold, the LORD’s hand is not shortened, that it can’t save; nor his ear dull, that it can’t hear.
2 Nupay kasta, ti kinamanagbasolyo nga Israelita ket isu ti nangisina kadakayo manipud iti Diosyo, ken gapu kadagiti basolyo ket tinallikudannakayo ken saannakayo a dinengngeg.
But your iniquities have separated you and your God, and your sins have hidden his face from you, so that he will not hear.
3 Ta dagiti imayo ket namantsaan iti dara kasta met dagiti ramayyo ket namantsaan iti basol. Agsasao dagiti bibigyo iti inuulbod ken agkakadakes ti ibalbalikas ti dilayo.
For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity. Your lips have spoken lies. Your tongue mutters wickedness.
4 Awan iti agar-aramid iti nalinteg, ken awan iti mangikalkalintegan iti kasasaadna iti kinapudno. Agtaltalekda iti ubbaw a sasao, ken inuulbod ti ibagbagada; isikogda ti riribuk ket impasngayda ti basol.
No one sues in righteousness, and no one pleads in truth. They trust in vanity and speak lies. They conceive mischief and give birth to iniquity.
5 Pagpissaenda dagiti itlog ti nagita nga uleg ken lagaenda ti sapot ti lawwalawwa. Siasinoman a mangan kadagiti itlogda ket matay, ken no adda mabittak nga itlog, rummuar ti nagita nga uleg.
They hatch adders’ eggs and weave the spider’s web. He who eats of their eggs dies; and that which is crushed breaks out into a viper.
6 Saan a mabalin nga aramiden a lupot dagiti sapotda, ken saanda a mabalin a lengdan dagiti bagbagida kadagiti trabahoda. Dagiti trabahoda ket trabaho ti kinadakes, ken aramid ti kinaranggas ti adda kadagiti imada.
Their webs won’t become garments. They won’t cover themselves with their works. Their works are works of iniquity, and acts of violence are in their hands.
7 Tartarayenda ti kinadakes, ket agtarayda tapno mangpasayasayda iti dara iti awan basolna. Dagiti kapanunotanda ket dakes a kapanunotan; kinaranggas ken pannakadadael ti pagpagnaanda a kalsada.
Their feet run to evil, and they hurry to shed innocent blood. Their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity. Desolation and destruction are in their paths.
8 Saanda nga ammo ti dalan ti kappia, ken awan iti hustisia kadagiti dalanda. Nagaramidda kadagiti killo a dalan; siasinoman nga agdaliasat kadagitoy a dalan ket saanna nga ammo ti kappia.
They don’t know the way of peace; and there is no justice in their ways. They have made crooked paths for themselves; whoever goes in them doesn’t know peace.
9 Isu nga adayo kadakami ti hustisia, uray ti kinalinteg ket saan a dimmanon kadakami. Agur-uraykami iti lawag, ngem kinasipnget ti makitami; sapsapulenmi ti kinaraniag, ngem magmagnakami iti kasipngetan.
Therefore justice is far from us, and righteousness doesn’t overtake us. We look for light, but see darkness; for brightness, but we walk in obscurity.
10 Ar-arikapenmi ti pader a kas iti bulsek, kas kadagiti saan a makakita. Maitubtublakkami iti tengnga ti aldaw nga arigna't sumipngeten; kadagiti napipigsa, kasla kami la natay a tattao.
We grope for the wall like the blind. Yes, we grope as those who have no eyes. We stumble at noon as if it were twilight. Among those who are strong, we are like dead men.
11 Agngerngerngerkami a kas kadagiti oso ken umas-asugkami a kas kadagiti kalapati; agur-uraykami para iti hustisia, ngem awan; agur-uraykami iti mangispal, ngem adayo daytoy kadakami.
We all roar like bears and moan sadly like doves. We look for justice, but there is none, for salvation, but it is far off from us.
12 Ta dagiti adu a nagbasolanmi ket adda iti sangoanam, ken mangpaneknek dagiti basolmi maibusor kadakami; ta nagbasolkami, ket bigbigenmi dagiti basbasolmi.
For our transgressions are multiplied before you, and our sins testify against us; for our transgressions are with us, and as for our iniquities, we know them:
13 Nagsukirkami, inliblibakmi ni Yahweh ken immadayokami iti panangsurot iti Diosmi. Nangidadaneskami iti panagsaomi ket pasig nga ulbod ti adda iti pusomi ket inuulbod dagiti sasaomi.
transgressing and denying the LORD, and turning away from following our God, speaking oppression and revolt, conceiving and uttering from the heart words of falsehood.
14 Nabaliktad ti hustisia, ket adayo ti ayan iti kinalinteg; ta naitublak ti kinapudno iti paguummongan a disso, ket saan a makagteng ti husto.
Justice is turned away backward, and righteousness stands far away; for truth has fallen in the street, and uprightness can’t enter.
15 Napukawen ti kinamatalek, ken ti tao a nagsardengen nga agar-aramid iti dakes ket pinagbalinna a biktima ti bagina. Nakita ni Yahweh daytoy ket saan isuna a naragsakan nga awan iti hustisia.
Yes, truth is lacking; and he who departs from evil makes himself a prey. The LORD saw it, and it displeased him that there was no justice.
16 Nakita ni Yahweh nga awan ti uray maysa a tao a timmulong ket nasdaaw isuna. Ngarud, isuna a mismo ti nangisalakan kenkuana, ket pinagballigi isuna iti kinalintegna.
He saw that there was no man, and wondered that there was no intercessor. Therefore his own arm brought salvation to him; and his righteousness sustained him.
17 Insuotna ti kinalinteg a kas kabal ken inkabilna iti ulona ti helmet ti pannakaisalakan. Kinawesanna ti bagina kadagiti pagan-anay iti panagibales ken insuotna ti tatak a kas iti maysa a nagayad a lupot.
He put on righteousness as a breastplate, and a helmet of salvation on his head. He put on garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a mantle.
18 Sinupapakanna ida segun iti inaramidda, naunget a panangikeddeng kadagiti kabusorna, panangibales kadagiti kabusorna, ti pannakadusa kadagiti isla a kas gunggonada.
According to their deeds, he will repay as appropriate: wrath to his adversaries, recompense to his enemies. He will repay the islands their due.
19 Isu nga agbutengdanto iti nagan ni Yahweh manipud iti laud, ken iti dayagna manipud iti pagsingsingisingan ti init; ta umayto isuna a kasla iti napegges a waig, nga iturturong ti anges ni Yahweh.
So they will fear the LORD’s name from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun; for he will come as a rushing stream, which the LORD’s breath drives.
20 “Umayto ti mannubbot idiay Sion ken umayto isuna para kadagiti kaputotan ni Jacob a nangtallikud kadagiti kinasukirda — kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.
“A Redeemer will come to Zion, and to those who turn from disobedience in Jacob,” says the LORD.
21 Ket para kaniak, daytoy ti katulagak kadakuada — kuna ni Yahweh — ti espirituk nga adda kadakayo, ken dagiti sasaok nga inkabilko kadagiti ngiwatyo, ket saanto a maikkat kadagiti ngiwatyo wenno rummuar manipud kadagiti ngiwat dagiti annakyo, wenno rummuar manipud kadagiti ngiwat ti appokoyo manipud ita ken iti agnanayon, kuna ni Yahweh.”
“As for me, this is my covenant with them,” says the LORD. “My Spirit who is on you, and my words which I have put in your mouth shall not depart out of your mouth, nor out of the mouth of your offspring, nor out of the mouth of your offspring’s offspring,” says the LORD, “from now on and forever.”
