Jeremias 12
1 Nalintegka, O Yahweh, tunggal adda iyegko kenka a saan a pagkikinnaawatan. Pudno a rumbeng nga ibagak kenka ti rasonko nga agriri: Apay nga agballigi dagiti wagas dagiti nadangkes? Naballigi dagiti amin a tattao a saan a napudno.
Certainly, O Lord, you are just. But if I may contend with you, while still speaking what is just to you: Why does the way of the impious prosper? Why is it well with all those who transgress and act unfairly?
2 Inmulam ida ket nagramutda. Agtultuloy ti panagbungbungada. Asidegka kadakuada kadagiti ngiwatda, ngem adayoka kadagiti pusoda.
You planted them, and they took root. They are prospering and bearing fruit. You are near to their mouths, but far from their hearts.
3 Ngem Sika a mismo O Yahweh, am-ammonak. Nakitanakon ken nasukimatmon ti pusok. Iguyodmo ida a kasla karnero a mapan iti pagpartian. Ilasinmo ida para iti aldaw ti pannakapapatay.
And you, O Lord, have known me well. You have seen me, and you have tested my heart with you. Gather them together like a flock for the sacrifice and sanctify them for the day of slaughter.
4 Kasano pay kabayag ti panagladladingit ti daga, ken ti panaglaylay dagiti mula iti tunggal talon gapu iti kinadangkes dagiti agnanaed iti daytoy? Naibusen dagiti narungsot nga ayup ken dagiti billit. Kinapudnona, kuna dagiti tattao, “Saan nga ammo ti Dios ti mapasamakto kadatayo.”
How long shall the earth mourn? And how long shall the plants of every field whither because of the wickedness of the inhabitants within them? It has consumed the wild animals and the birds. For they said: “He will not see our very end.”
5 Kinuna ni Yahweh, “Ta no sika, Jeremias, ket nagtarayka a nakikuyog kadagiti magmagna a suldado, ket binannogdaka, kasano ka ngarud a makilumba kadagiti kabalio? No maitublakka iti nawaya ken natalged nga away, kasanonto ngarud no addaka iti kasamekan iti igid ti Jordan?
“If you have struggled to run on foot, how will you be able to compete with horses? And if you have been secure in a land of peace, what will you do about the arrogance of the Jordan?
6 Ta uray dagiti kabsatmo ken ti pamilia ti amam ket liniputandaka ket uray dala inwaragawag ti panangilaksidda kenka. Saanka nga agtalek kadakuada, uray no nasayaat dagiti ibagbagada kenka.
For even your brothers, and the house of your father, even these have fought against you. And they have cried out after you with loud voice: ‘You should not believe them, when they speak good things to you.’”
7 Pinanawakon ti balayko; binaybay-akon ti tawidko. Intedkon dagiti patpatgek a tattaok kadagiti ima dagiti kabusorna.
“I have abandoned my house. I have disowned my inheritance. I have given my beloved soul into the hand of its enemies.
8 Nagbalin ti tawidko a kasla leon iti kasamekan kaniak; bumusbusor isuna kaniak babaen iti bukodna a timek, isu a kagurak isuna.
My inheritance has become for me like a lion in the forest. It has uttered a voice against me, therefore, I have hated it.
9 Kasla atap nga aso ti napateg a sanikuak, ken agtayabtayab dagiti billit a mangmangan iti padada nga ayup iti ngatwen ti ulona. Mapankayo, ummongenyo dagiti amin a sibibiag a parsua kadagiti tay-ak, ket iyegyo ditoy tapno kanenda ida.
Is my inheritance to me like a discolored bird? Is it like a bird that has entirely changed color? Approach and assemble, all beasts of the earth! Hurry, so that you may devour!
10 Dinadael ti adu nga agipaspastor ti kaubasak. Binaddebaddekanda ti entero a bingayko a daga, pinagbalinda a let-ang ti napintas a bingayko, maysa a langalang. Pinagbalinda isuna a langalang. Nagladingitak gapu kenkuana; langalang isuna.
Many pastors have demolished my vineyard. They have trampled my portion. They have made my desirable portion into a desert of solitude.
11 Nagbalinen a langalang ti entero a daga, ta awan ti tao a mangaywan iti daytoy.
They have squandered it, and it has grieved concerning me. The entire earth has become utterly desolate, because there is no one who understands with the heart.”
12 Dimteng dagiti manangdadael a maibusor kadagiti amin nga ungaong a lugar idiay let-ang, ta agdakdakiwas ti kampilan ni Yahweh manipud iti maysa a pungto ti daga agingga iti sabali a pungto ti daga. Awan iti kinatalged iti daga iti aniaman a sibibiag a parsua.
The devastators have arrived, over all the ways of the wilderness. For the sword of the Lord will devour, from one end of the earth even to its furthest limits. There is no peace for all that is flesh.
13 Nagmulada iti trigo ngem nagapitda kadagiti nasiit a mula. Nabannogda iti panagtrabaho ngem awan iti nagunggonada. Isu nga agbainkayo iti nagunggunayo gapu iti pungtot ni Yahweh.”
They sowed wheat, but they reaped thorns. They received an inheritance, but it will not benefit them. You will be confounded by your own fruits, because of the wrath of the fury of the Lord.
14 Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh maibusor kadagiti amin a kaarrubak, dagiti nadangkes a nangdadael iti sanikua nga impatawidko kadagiti tattaok nga Israelita, “Kitaem, Siakto ti mangparut kadakuada manipud iti bukodda a daga, ken parutekto ti balay ti Juda iti nagtetengngaanda.
Thus says the Lord against all my wicked neighbors, who touch the inheritance that I have distributed to my people Israel: “Behold, I will root them out of their own land, and I will root the house of Judah out of their midst.
15 Ket kalpasan ti panangparutko kadagitoy a nasion, mapasamakto a kaasiakto ida ken isublik ida; isublikto ida- tunggal tao iti tawidna ken iti dagana.
And when I have rooted them out, I will turn back and take pity on them. And I will lead them back, one man to his inheritance, and another man to his land.
16 Mapasamakto a no adalen a naimbag dagidiay a nasion dagiti wagas dagiti tattaok, nga agsapatada iti naganko a kunaenda, 'Iti nagan ni Yahweh nga adda iti agnanayon!' a kas iti insuroda kadagiti tattaok a panagsapatada kenni Baal, ket makipagnaeddanto kadagiti tattaok.
And this shall be: if they are taught and they learn the ways of my people, so that they swear by my name, ‘As the Lord lives,’ just as they had taught my people to swear by Baal, then they will be built up in the midst of my people.
17 Ngem no adda iti saan a dumngeg, parutekto ngarud dayta a nasion. Siguradonto a maparut ken madadael daytoy- daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh.”
But if they will not listen, I will uproot that nation unto utter destruction and perdition, says the Lord.”
