< Jeremias 4 >

1 No agsublikayo, Israel—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh— siak ti rumbeng a pagsublianyo. No ikkatenyo dagiti makarimon a banbanagyo iti imatangko, ken saandak manen a tallikudan,
O Israel, if thou returne, returne vnto me, saith the Lord: and if thou put away thine abominations out of my sight, then shalt thou not remoue.
2 ken no isapatayo, ‘adda kenni Yahweh ti kinapudno, hustisia, ken kinalinteg,' kiddawento dagiti nasion ti bendisionko, ken idayawdakto.
And thou shalt sweare, The Lord liueth in trueth, in iudgement, and in righteousnesse, and the nations shall be blessed in him, and shall glorie in him.
3 Ta kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh iti tunggal maysa a tattao iti Juda ken Jerusalem. ‘Aradwenyo ti bukodyo a daga, ken saankayo nga agmula kadagiti kasisiitan.
For thus saith the Lord to the men of Iudah, and to Ierusalem,
4 Makugitkayo koma kenni Yahweh ken ikkatenyo dagiti akin-rabaw a kudil dagiti pusoyo, lallaki ti Juda ken dakayo nga agnanaed iti Jerusalem, ta no saan, gumil-ayabto a kasla apuy ti rungsotko ken manguram nga awan ti uray siasino a makaiddep iti daytoy. Mapasamakto daytoy gapu iti kinadakes dagiti aramidyo.
Breake vp your fallowe ground, and sowe not among the thornes: be circumcised to the Lord, and take away the foreskinnes of your hearts, ye men of Iudah, and inhabitants of Ierusalem, lest my wrath come foorth like fire, and burne, that none can quenche it, because of the wickednesse of your inuentions.
5 Ipakaammoyo idiay Juda ken ipangngegyo iti Jerusalem. Kunaenyo, “Pagunienyo ti tangguyob iti daga.” Iwaragawagyo, “Aguummongkayo.” Mapantayo kadagiti nasarikedkedan a siudad.”
Declare in Iudah, and shewe forth in Ierusalem, and say, Blowe the trumpet in the lande: cry, and gather together, and say, Assemble your selues, and let vs goe into strong cities.
6 Itag-ayyo ti bandera a pagilasinan ket iturongyo idiay Sion, ken tumaraykayo tapno natalgedkayo! Saankayo nga agtalinaed, ta mangiyegak iti didigra manipud amianan ken dakkel a pannakarebba.
Set vp the standart in Zion: prepare to flee, and stay not: for I will bring a plague from the North, and a great destruction.
7 Rummuarto iti maysa a leon manipud kasamekan, ken agsagsaganan ti maysa a mangdadaelto kadagiti nasion. Pumanaw isuna iti lugar nga ayanna tapno mangiyeg ti nakaal-alinggaget a pasamak iti dagayo, dadaelenna dagiti siudadyo, ket awanto ti agnaed.
The lyon is come vp from his denne, and the destroyer of the Gentiles is departed, and gone forth of his place to lay thy land waste, and thy cities shalbe destroyed without an inhabitant.
8 Gapu iti daytoy, balkotenyo ti bagbagiyo iti nakersang a lupot, agdung-aw ken aganug-ogkayo. Ta saan a timmalikud kadatayo ti rungsot ti pungtot ni Yahweh.
Wherefore girde you with sackecloth: lament, and howle, for the fierce wrath of the Lord is not turned backe from vs.
9 Ket mapasamakto iti dayta nga aldaw, —kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh— a matayto ti puso dagiti ari ken dagiti opisialna. Makigtotto dagiti padi, ken mapabutnganto dagiti profeta.
And in that day, saith the Lord, the heart of the King shall perish, and the heart of the princes and the Priestes shall be astonished, and the Prophets shall wonder.
10 Isu a kinunak, “O! Yahweh nga Apo. Pudno nga inallilawmo a naminpinsan dagitoy a tattao ken ti Jerusalem babaen iti panangibagam, ‘Maaddaankayonto iti kappia.' Idinto a silalayat ti kampilan a maibusor iti biagda.
Then saide I, Ah, Lord God, surely thou hast deceiued this people and Ierusalem, saying, Ye shall haue peace, and the sworde perceth vnto the heart.
11 Iti dayta a tiempo maibaganto ti kastoy kadagitoy a tattao ken iti Jerusalem “Ti nabara nga angin manipud kadagiti patad ti let-ang ket agturongto kadagiti annak a babbai dagiti tattaok. Saannanto ida a taepan wenno dalusan.
At that time shall it bee saide to this people and to Ierusalem, A dry winde in the hie places of the wildernes commeth towarde ye daughter of my people, but neither to fanne nor to clense.
12 Addanto iti angin a napigpigsa nga adayo ngem iti dayta nga angin nga umay babaen ti bilinko, ket iyulogkon ti panangukomko kadakuada.
A mightie winde shall come vnto me from those places, and nowe will I also giue sentence vpon them.
13 Kitaenyo, ruma-ut isuna a kasla ulep, ken kasla bagyo dagiti karwahena. Naparpartak dagiti kabaliona ngem kadagiti agila. Asitayo pay, ta madadaeltayonto!
Beholde, he shall come vp as the cloudes, and his charets shalbe as a tempest: his horses are lighter then eagles. Woe vnto vs, for wee are destroyed.
14 O Jerusalem, dalusanyo dagiti pusoyo manipud iti kinadangkes, tapno maisalakankayo. Kaanonto pay ti panagsardengyo iti panangpanpanunotyo no kasano ti agbasol?
O Ierusalem, wash thine heart from wickednes, that thou maiest be saued: how long shall thy wicked thoughtes remaine within thee?
15 Ta addanto timek a mangiyeg iti damag manipud Dan, ken mangngeg ti um-umay a didigra manipud kadagiti kabanbantayan ti Efraim.
For a voyce declareth from Dan, and publisheth affliction from mount Ephraim.
16 Bay-am a panunoten dagiti nasion ti maipanggep iti daytoy: Denggem, ibagam iti Jerusalem nga um-umayen dagiti manglakub manipud iti adayu a daga a mangipukkaw iti gubat a maibusor kadagiti siudad ti Juda.
Make ye mention of the heathen, and publish in Ierusalem, Beholde, the skoutes come from a farre countrey, and crie out against the cities of Iudah.
17 Maiyarigdanto kadagiti agwanwanawan iti naaradon a talon a nangpalawlaw iti daytoy, agsipud ta nagsukir daytoy kaniak—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—
They haue compassed her about as the watchmen of the fielde, because it hath prouoked me to wrath, saith the Lord.
18 ken ti kababalin ken ar-aramidmo ti makagapu a mapasamak dagitoy kenka. Kastoyto ti dusam. Anian a nakaam-amakto daytoy! Dangrannanto ti mismo a pusom.
Thy wayes and thine inuentions haue procured thee these things, such is thy wickednesse: therefore it shall be bitter, therefore it shall perce vnto thine heart.
19 O pusok! O pusok! Agsansanaang daytoy pusok. Mariribukan daytoy pusok. Saanak a makatalna ta mangmangngegko ti uni ti tangguyob, ti pakdaar ti gubat.
My bely, my bely, I am pained, euen at the very heart: mine heart is troubled within me: I cannot be still: for my soule hath heard the sounde of the trumpet, and the alarme of the battell.
20 Pannakarebba ken pannakarebba ti maiwarwaragawag, ta kellaat a nadadael ti entero a daga. Naminpinsan a dinadaelda ti tabernakulok ken ti toldak.
Destruction vpon destruction is cryed, for the whole lande is wasted: suddenly are my tents destroyed, and my curtaines in a moment.
21 Kasano pay ngata kabayag a kitkitaek ti bandera? Mangngegkonto kadi pay ti uni ti tangguyob?
Howe long shall I see the standert, and heare the sounde of the trumpet?
22 Ta iti kinamaag dagiti tattaok—saandak nga am-ammo. Nakunengda a tattao ken awan pannakaawatda. Nalaingda no maipapan iti kinadakes, ngem awan ammoda nga agaramid iti kina-imbag.
For my people is foolish, they haue not knowen me: they are foolish children, and haue none vnderstanding: they are wise to doe euill, but to doe well they haue no knowledge.
23 Nakitak ti daga, ket anian! Awan langlangana ken unga-ong daytoy. Ta awan silaw dagiti langit.
I haue looked vpon the earth, and loe, it was without forme and voide: and to the heauens, and they had no light.
24 Kimmitaak kadagiti kabanbantayan. Nakitak nga agkinkintayeg ken aggungungon dagiti turod.
I behelde the mountaines: and loe, they trembled and all the hilles shooke.
25 Kimmitaak. Adtoy, awan uray maysa a tao, ken timmayab amin a billit ti langit.
I behelde, and loe, there was no man, and all the birdes of the heauen were departed.
26 Kimmitaak. Nakitak a nagbalin a let-ang ti minuyongan ken narba amin dagiti siudad iti sangoanan ni Yahweh, gapu iti rungsot ti pungtotna.”
I behelde, and loe, the fruitfull place was a wildernesse, and all the cities thereof were broken downe at the presence of the Lord, and by his fierce wrath.
27 Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, “Madadaelto ti daga, ngem saankonto a dadaelen a naan-anay daytoy.
For thus hath the Lord saide, The whole lande shall be desolate: yet will I not make a full ende.
28 Gapu iti daytoy, agladingitto ti daga, ken agsipngetto ti tangatang. Ta impakaammokon ti panggepko; ipatungpalko; Saanakto nga agsanud a mangipatungpal kadagitoy.
Therefore shall the earth mourne, and the heauens aboue shall be darkened, because I haue pronounced it: I haue thought it, and will not repent, neither will I turne backe from it.
29 Itarayanto ti tunggal siudad ti arimpadek dagiti kumakabalio ken dagiti pumapana; tumaraydanto kadagiti kabakiran. Kumalay-atto ti tunggal siudad kadagiti kabatbattoan a luglugar. Mabaybay-anto dagiti siudad, ta awanto ti uray maysa nga agtaeng kadagitoy.
The whole citie shall flee, for the noyse of the horsemen and bowemen: they shall goe into thickets, and clime vp vpon the rockes: euery citie shall be forsaken, and not a man dwell therein.
30 Ita ta nadadaelkan, ania ti aramidem? Ta uray agkaweska iti nalabbaga a kawes, arkusam ti bagim iti alahas a balitok, ken padakkelem ti matam babaen iti pinta, saandakan a kayat ita dagiti lallaki a nagderrep kenka. Ngem ketdi, kayatda a pukawen ti biagmo.
And when thou shalt be destroyed, what wilt thou doe? Though thou clothest thy selfe with skarlet, though thou deckest thee with ornaments of golde, though thou paintest thy face with colours, yet shalt thou trimme thy selfe in vaine: for thy louers will abhorre thee and seeke thy life.
31 Isu a mangngegko ti uni ti asug, tuok a kas iti agpasngay iti inauna nga anak, ti timek ti babai nga anak ti Sion. Agang-angsab isuna. Iyukradna dagiti imana, ' Asi-ak pay! Matallimudawak gapu kadagitoy a mammapatay.”'
For I haue heard a noyse as of a woman trauailing, or as one labouring of her first child, euen the voyce of the daughter Zion that sigheth and stretcheth out her handes: woe is me nowe: for my soule fainteth because of the murtherers.
