Jeremias 46
1 Daytoy ti sao ni Yahweh nga immay kenni Jeremias a profeta maipanggep kadagiti nasion.
This is the word of the LORD about the nations—the word that came to Jeremiah the prophet
2 Maipapan iti Egipto: “Maipanggep daytoy iti armada ni Faraon Neco nga ari ti Egipto nga adda idiay Carkemis iti asideg ti Karayan Eufrates. Daytoy ti armada a pinarmek ni Nebucadnesar nga ari ti Babilonia iti maika-uppat a tawen a panagturay ni Jehoiakim a putot ni Josias, a kas ari ti Juda:
concerning Egypt and the army of Pharaoh Neco king of Egypt, which was defeated at Carchemish on the Euphrates River by Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah:
3 Isaganayo dagiti babassit ken dagiti dadakkel a kalasag, ket mapankayo makigubat.
“Deploy your shields, small and large; advance for battle!
4 Isaganayo dagiti kabalio ket agsakaykayo kadagitoy, dakayo a kumakabalio. Agpuestokayo, ken aghelmetkayo. Asaenyo dagiti gayang ken agkabalkayo.
Harness the horses; mount the steeds; take your positions with helmets on! Polish your spears; put on armor!
5 Ania ti makitak ditoy? Mabutbutengda unay ken agtatarayda, ta naparmeken dagiti soldadoda. Agtatarayda nga aglemmeng ket saanda a tumalliaw. Adda panagbuteng iti sadinoman—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—
Why am I seeing this? They are terrified, they are retreating; their warriors are defeated, they flee in haste without looking back; terror is on every side!”
6 saan a makaadayo dagiti napartak a tumaray, ket saan a makalibas dagiti soldado. Maitibkolda iti amianan ket matumbada iti igid ti Karayan Eufrates.
“The swift cannot flee, and the warrior cannot escape! In the north by the River Euphrates they stumble and fall.
7 Siasino daytoy a dumakkel a kas iti Karayan Nilo, a dagiti danumna ket agallo-allon a kas kadagiti karayan?
Who is this, rising like the Nile, like rivers whose waters churn?
8 Dumakkel ti Egipto a kas iti Karayan Nilo, ket agallo-allon dagiti danumna a kas iti karayan. Kuna daytoy, 'Dumakkelak; lapunusek ti daga. Dadaelek dagiti siudad ken dagiti agnanaed kadagitoy.
Egypt rises like the Nile, and its waters churn like rivers, boasting, ‘I will rise and cover the earth; I will destroy the cities and their people.’
9 Sumang-atkayo, dakayo a kabalio. Agungetkayo, dakayo a karuahe. Paruarenyo dagiti soldado, Cus ken Put, lallaki a maingel ken addaan kadagiti kalasag, ken Ludim, lallaki a nalaing a pumapana.'
Advance, O horses! Race furiously, O chariots! Let the warriors come forth— Cush and Put carrying their shields, men of Lydia drawing the bow.
10 Daytanto ti aldaw a panagibales ti Apo a ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin, ket balsennanto dagiti kabusorna. Mangalun-onto ti kampilan ket mapnekto daytoy. Inumento daytoy dagiti darada. Ta addanto daton para iti Apo a ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin iti akin-amianan a daga iti igid ti Karayan Eufrates.
For that day belongs to the Lord GOD of Hosts, a day of vengeance against His foes. The sword will devour until it is satisfied, until it is quenched with their blood. For the Lord GOD of Hosts will hold a sacrifice in the land of the north by the River Euphrates.
11 Sumang-atka idiay Galaad ket mangalaka iti agas, sika a birhen nga anak a babai ti Egipto. Awan serserbi ti panangikabilmo iti adu nga agas iti bagim. Awan ti makapaimbag kenka.
Go up to Gilead for balm, O Virgin Daughter of Egypt! In vain you try many remedies, but for you there is no healing.
12 Nangngeg dagiti nasion ti pannakaibabainmo. Napunno ti daga kadagiti panagdungdung-awmo, ta agdidinnungpar dagiti soldado; ket mapasagda a padapada.”
The nations have heard of your shame, and your outcry fills the earth, because warrior stumbles over warrior and both of them have fallen together.”
13 Kastoy ti sao nga imbaga ni Yahweh kenni Jeremias a profeta idi immay ni Nebucadnesar nga ari ti Babilonia ket rinautna ti daga ti Egipto:
This is the word that the LORD spoke to Jeremiah the prophet about the coming of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon to strike the land of Egypt:
14 “Ipadamagmo iti Egipto ket ipangngegmo iti Migdol ken Memfis. Kinunada iti Tapanes, 'Agpuestokayo ken agsaganakayo, a mangikaluya kadagiti bagbagiyo, ta alun-unento ti kampilan dagiti amin nga adda iti aglawlawyo.
“Announce it in Egypt, and proclaim it in Migdol; proclaim it in Memphis and Tahpanhes: ‘Take your positions and prepare yourself, for the sword devours those around you.’
15 Apay ngarud a timmaray ti didiosenyo a ni Apis? Apay a saan a makatakder ti didiosenyo a kalakian a baka. Tinulid isuna ni Yahweh.
Why have your warriors been laid low? They cannot stand, for the LORD has thrust them down.
16 Naynayunanna ti bilang dagiti maitibtibkol. Matumtumba dagiti soldado ket uray da la agpipinnandag. Ibagbagada, “Tumakdertayo. Agawidtayon. Agsublitayo kadagiti tattaotayo, iti daga a nakaiyanakantayo. Panawantayon daytoy a kampilan a mangparparmek kadatayo.”
They continue to stumble; indeed, they have fallen over one another. They say, ‘Get up! Let us return to our people and to the land of our birth, away from the sword of the oppressor.’
17 Imbagada sadiay, “Ni Faraon nga ari ti Egipto ket maysa laeng nga ariwawa, maysa a tao a nangitulok a mapukaw ti gundawayna.”
There they will cry out: ‘Pharaoh king of Egypt was all noise; he has let the appointed time pass him by.’
18 “Siak a Dios nga adda iti agnanayon—kastoy ti pakaammo ti ari—ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin ti naganko, addanto umay a kas iti Bantay Tabor ken Bantay Carmel iti igid ti baybay.
As surely as I live, declares the King, whose name is the LORD of Hosts, there will come one who is like Tabor among the mountains and like Carmel by the sea.
19 Isaganayo dagiti gargaretyo para iti pannakaipanawyo a kas balud, dakayo nga annak a babbai nga agnanaed idiay Egipto. Ta ti Memfis ket agbalinto a makapabuteng ken langalang, isu nga awanto iti agnaed sadiay.
Pack your bags for exile, O daughter dwelling in Egypt! For Memphis will be laid waste, destroyed and uninhabited.
20 Ti Egipto ket maysa a napintas nga urbon a baka, ngem umayto ti insekto nga agkagat a naggapu iti amianan. Umayto daytoy.
Egypt is a beautiful heifer, but a gadfly from the north is coming against her.
21 Dagiti natangdanan a soldadona ket kasla napalukmeg a baka, ngem agsanudda ken agtarayda. Saanda a sangsangkamaysa a makiranget, ta umayto ti aldaw ti pannakadidigrada, ti tiempo ti pannakadusada.
Even the mercenaries among her are like fattened calves. They too will turn back; together they will flee, they will not stand their ground, for the day of calamity is coming upon them— the time of their punishment.
22 Agkarasakas ti Egipto a kas iti uleg ken aguyas nga umadayo, ta um-umayen dagiti kabusorna. Agturongda kenkuana a kas kadagiti lallaki a pumupukan iti kayo a nagtagiwasay.
Egypt will hiss like a fleeing serpent, for the enemy will advance in force; with axes they will come against her like woodsmen cutting down trees.
23 Putdendanto dagiti kaykayo kadagiti kabakiran—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—uray no kabakbakiran daytoy. Ta ad-adunto dagiti kabusor ngem kadagiti dudon, a saan a mabilang.
They will chop down her forest, declares the LORD, dense though it may be, for they are more numerous than locusts; they cannot be counted.
24 Mapabainanto ti anak a babai ti Egipto. Maiyawatto isuna kadagiti tattao a naggapu iti amianan.”
The Daughter of Egypt will be put to shame; she will be delivered into the hands of the people of the north.”
25 Kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakablin-amin a Dios ti Israel, “Dumngegkayo, dandanin ti panangdusak kenni Amon a didiosen ti Tebes, ni Faraon, iti Egipto ken kadagiti didiosenna, dagiti ari daytoy a Faraon, ken dagiti agtaltalek kadakuada.
The LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: “Behold, I am about to punish Amon god of Thebes, along with Pharaoh, Egypt with her gods and kings, and those who trust in Pharaoh.
26 Iyawatkonto ida kadagiti mangayat a mangkettel iti biagda, iti ima ni Nebucadnesar nga ari ti Babilonia ken kadagiti adipenna. Ket kalpasan daytoy, addanto manen agnaed iti Egipto a kas idi un-unana nga al-aldaw—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.”
I will deliver them into the hands of those who seek their lives—of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon and his officers. But after this, Egypt will be inhabited as in days of old, declares the LORD.
27 Ngem sika, Jacob nga adipenko, saanka nga agbuteng. Saanka a maupay, Israel, ta dumngegka, umadanin ti panangisublik kenka manipud iti adayo, ken dagiti kaputotam manipud iti daga a nakaipananda a kas balud. Ket agsublinto ni Jacob, makasarak iti kappia ken natalgedto, ket awanto ti siasinoman a mamagbuteng kenkuana.
But you, O Jacob My servant, do not be afraid, and do not be dismayed, O Israel. For I will surely save you out of a distant place, your descendants from the land of their captivity! Jacob will return to quiet and ease, with no one to make him afraid.
28 Sika Jacob nga adipenko, saanka nga agbuteng—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—ta addaak kenka, iyegkonto ngarud ti naan-anay a pannakadadael maibusor kadagiti amin a nasion a nangiwarawaraak kenka. Ngem saanka a dadaelen a naan-anay. Ngem sililinteg nga aturenka ken dusaenkanto a dusaen.”'''
And you, My servant Jacob, do not be afraid, declares the LORD, for I am with you. Though I will completely destroy all the nations to which I have banished you, I will not completely destroy you. Yet I will discipline you justly, and will by no means leave you unpunished.”
