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,
If thou wilt return to me, O Israel, saith Jehovah, Thou shalt return [[to thy land]]; If thou wilt put away thy abominations from my sight, Thou shalt no more be a wanderer [[in a foreign land]].
2 ken no isapatayo, ‘adda kenni Yahweh ti kinapudno, hustisia, ken kinalinteg,' kiddawento dagiti nasion ti bendisionko, ken idayawdakto.
If thou wilt swear, As Jehovah liveth! In truth, in justice, and in righteousness, Then shall the nations bless themselves by thee, And in thee shall they glory.
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.
Thus saith Jehovah to the men of Judah and Jerusalem: Break up your fallow ground, And sow not among thorns!
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.
Circumcise yourselves to Jehovah; Yea, circumcise your hearts, Ye men of Judah, and inhabitants of Jerusalem! Lest, for the evil of your doings, My fury break forth like fire, And burn so that none can quench it.
5 Ipakaammoyo idiay Juda ken ipangngegyo iti Jerusalem. Kunaenyo, “Pagunienyo ti tangguyob iti daga.” Iwaragawagyo, “Aguummongkayo.” Mapantayo kadagiti nasarikedkedan a siudad.”
Declare ye in Judah, And proclaim in Jerusalem, and say, Blow ye the trumpet in the land; Cry ye aloud, and say, Gather yourselves together, And let us go into the fortified 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 up a standard toward Zion, Flee, make no stand! For I am about to bring evil from the north, Even 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 lion goeth up from his thicket, The destroyer of nations is on his way; He goeth forth from his place to make thy land desolate; Thy cities shall be laid waste so as to be 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.
For this cause gird on sackcloth, Lament and howl! For the fierce anger of Jehovah is not turned away from us.
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.
In that day, saith Jehovah, Shall the heart of the king perish, And the heart of the princes; The priests shall be amazed, And the prophets confounded.
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 said I, Alas, O Lord Jehovah! Surely thou hast greatly deceived this people and Jerusalem; Thou hast said, “Ye shall have peace”; And the sword reacheth to the very life!
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 be said to this people and to Jerusalem: A dry wind cometh from the hills of the desert, It cometh toward my people, Not to fan, nor to cleanse.
12 Addanto iti angin a napigpigsa nga adayo ngem iti dayta nga angin nga umay babaen ti bilinko, ket iyulogkon ti panangukomko kadakuada.
Yea, a wind stronger than this shall come; Now will I myself give sentence against them.
13 Kitaenyo, ruma-ut isuna a kasla ulep, ken kasla bagyo dagiti karwahena. Naparpartak dagiti kabaliona ngem kadagiti agila. Asitayo pay, ta madadaeltayonto!
Behold, he cometh up like clouds, And his chariots are like a whirlwind; His horses are swifter than eagles. Woe to us! for we are laid waste!
14 O Jerusalem, dalusanyo dagiti pusoyo manipud iti kinadangkes, tapno maisalakankayo. Kaanonto pay ti panagsardengyo iti panangpanpanunotyo no kasano ti agbasol?
Wash thy heart from wickedness, O Jerusalem, That thou mayst be saved! How long shall thy evil devices lodge 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 voice proclaimeth tidings from Dan, And announceth calamity 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.
Proclaim ye to the nations, Behold, publish ye to Jerusalem, “Watchmen are coming from a far country, And lift their voice against the cities of Judah.”
17 Maiyarigdanto kadagiti agwanwanawan iti naaradon a talon a nangpalawlaw iti daytoy, agsipud ta nagsukir daytoy kaniak—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—
Like keepers of fields are they round about her Because she hath rebelled against me, saith Jehovah.
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 way and thy doings have brought this upon thee; This is the fruit of thy wickedness; It is bitter; it reacheth to thy 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.
O my breast, my breast! I am pained in the walls of my heart; My heart trembleth within me; I cannot be silent; For thou hearest, O my soul, the sound of the trumpet, The alarm of war!
20 Pannakarebba ken pannakarebba ti maiwarwaragawag, ta kellaat a nadadael ti entero a daga. Naminpinsan a dinadaelda ti tabernakulok ken ti toldak.
There is a cry of destruction upon destruction; Yea, the whole land is laid waste; Suddenly are my tents destroyed, And my canopies in an instant.
21 Kasano pay ngata kabayag a kitkitaek ti bandera? Mangngegkonto kadi pay ti uni ti tangguyob?
How long shall I see the standard, Hear the sound 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.
My people is foolish, They have no regard to me; Stupid children are they, And have no understanding; They are wise to do evil, But for doing good they have no knowledge.
23 Nakitak ti daga, ket anian! Awan langlangana ken unga-ong daytoy. Ta awan silaw dagiti langit.
I look to the earth, and lo! emptiness and desolation; To the heavens, and there is no light.
24 Kimmitaak kadagiti kabanbantayan. Nakitak nga agkinkintayeg ken aggungungon dagiti turod.
I look to the mountains, and lo! they tremble, And all the hills shake.
25 Kimmitaak. Adtoy, awan uray maysa a tao, ken timmayab amin a billit ti langit.
I look, and lo! there is not a man, And all the birds of heaven are fled.
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 look, and lo! Carmel is a desert, And all its cities are thrown down, Before the presence of Jehovah, Before the heat of his anger.
27 Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, “Madadaelto ti daga, ngem saankonto a dadaelen a naan-anay daytoy.
For thus saith Jehovah: The whole land shall be desolate, Yet will I not make a full end.
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 mourn, And the heavens above be black, Because I have spoken, and I will not repent; I have purposed, and I will not recede 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.
At the noise of the horsemen and bowmen every city fleeth; They go into thickets, And climb up upon the rocks; All the cities are forsaken, And not a man dwelleth in them.
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 thou, destined to perish, what wilt thou do? Though thou clothe thyself in scarlet, And deck thyself with ornaments of gold, And rend thine eyes with paint, In vain dost thou adorn thyself; Thy lovers despise thee; They seek 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.”'
I hear a cry, as of a woman in travail, Anguish, as of her that bringeth forth her first child. The voice of the daughter of Zion. She sobbeth, she spreadeth out her hands, “Ah! woe is me! I am dying by murderers!”
