< Jeremias 5 >
1 “Darasenyo a mapan kadagiti kalsada ti Jerusalem, kasta met nga agsukimatkayo kadagiti plasana. Ket kitaenyo ken panunotenyo daytoy: No makasarakkayo iti tao wenno siasinoman nga agtigtignay a sililinteg ken ikagkagumaanna nga agtignay a sipupudno, pakawanekto ti Jerusalem.
“Travel the streets of Jerusalem; and gaze, and consider, and seek, in its wide streets. If you can find a man exercising judgment and seeking faith, then I will be forgiving to them.
2 Uray no kunada, 'Iti nagan ni Yahweh nga adda iti agnanayon,' inuulbod ti panagsapatada.”
For even though they say, ‘As the Lord lives,’ in this, too, they swear falsely.”
3 O Yahweh, saan kadi a kinapudno ti sapsapulen dagiti matam? Dinangram dagiti tattao, ngem saanda a makarikna iti ut-ot. Pinarmekmo ida a naan-anay, ngem agkedkedda latta nga umawat iti panangiwanwan. Pagbalbalinenda a natangtangken pay ngem bato dagiti rupada, ta saanda a kayat nga agbabawi.
O Lord, your eyes look with favor upon faith. You have struck them, and they have not grieved. You have bruised them, and they have refused to accept discipline. They have hardened their faces more than rock, and they are not willing to return.
4 Isu a kinunak, “Awan duadua a napanglaw laeng dagitoy a tattao. Maagda, ta saanda nga ammo dagiti wagas ni Yahweh, uray pay dagiti paglintegan ti Diosda.
But I said: Perhaps these are the poor and the senseless, who are ignorant of the way of the Lord, of the judgment of their God.
5 Mapanakto kadagiti mabigbigbig a tattao ket ipakaamok kadakuada dagiti mensahe ti Dios, ta uray kaskasano, ammoda ti wagas ni Yahweh, dagiti paglintegan ti Diosda. Ngem aminda, tinukkolda a sangsangkamaysa ti sangolda; pinugsatda amin dagiti kawar a nangisinggalut kadakuada iti Dios.
Therefore, I will go to great men, and I will speak with them. For they have known the way of the Lord, the judgment of their God. And behold, these ones have broken the yoke all the more; they have torn apart the bonds.
6 Isu a rautento ida ti leon nga aggapu iti kasamekan. Dadaelento ida iti atap nga aso nga aggapu idiay Araba. Umayto ti leopardo a maibusor kadagiti siudadda. Marangrangkayto ti siasinoman a rummuar iti siudadna. Ta kumarkarkaro ti panagsalungasingda. Awan panagpatingga ti panangtallikudda iti Dios.
For this reason, a lion from the forest has struck them down, a wolf toward evening has laid waste to them, a leopard lies in wait over their cities. All who go out from there will be taken. For their transgressions have been multiplied; their rebellions have been strengthened.
7 Apay koma a pakawanek dagitoy a tattao? Tinallikudandak dagiti annakyo a lallaki ken nagsapatada iti nagan dagiti saan a dios. Binussogko ida, ngem nakikamalalada ket napanda iti balay dagiti balangkantis.
“Over which things am I able to be merciful to you? Your sons have forsaken me, and they swear by those who are not gods. I gave them everything, and they committed adultery, and they indulged themselves in the house of the harlot.
8 Kaslada la kadagiti kabalio a makataktakba. Aggarraigida gapu iti tarigagayda a tumakba. Tarigagayan ti tunggal lalaki ti asawa ti kaarrubana.
They have become like wild horses in heat; each one was neighing after his neighbor’s wife.
9 Isu a saan kadi a rumbeng laeng a dusaek ida- kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh- saan kadi a rumbeng laeng nga agibalesak iti nasion a kas iti daytoy?
Shall I not visit against these things, says the Lord? And shall my soul not take vengeance on a nation such as this?
10 Sumang-atkayo kadagiti natukad-tukad a kaubasanna ket dadaelenyo dagitoy. Ngem saanyo a dadaelen a maminpinsan dagitoy. Putdenyo dagiti sangada, agsipud ta dagitoy a sanga ket saan a nagtaud kenni Yahweh.
Scale its walls and tear them down. But do not be willing to bring about its very end. Take away its plantings, for they are not the Lord’s.
11 Ta liniputandak a naminpinsan dagiti balay ti Israel ken Juda- kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh-
For the house of Israel and the house of Judah have greatly transgressed against me, says the Lord.
12 ken inlaksiddak. Kunada, 'Saan a pudno isuna. Awanto ti dakes a mapagtengtayo, ken saantayonto a makakita iti kampilan wenno agsagaba iti panagbisin.
They have denied the Lord, and they have said, ‘It is not him,’ and, ‘Evil will not overwhelm us. We will not see famine and the sword.’
13 Ta awanen iti serserbi dagiti profeta, maiyarigdan iti angin, ken awan a pulos ti mangipakpakaammo kadatayo iti mensahe ni Yahweh. Sagabaenda ngarud dagiti pangtada.”'
The prophets have spoken into the wind, and there was no answer with them. Therefore, these things will happen to them.”
14 Isu a kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Manakabalin-amin, “Gapu ta imbagam daytoy, denggem, ngannganikon nga ikabil ti saok dita ngiwatmo. Kaslanto apuy daytoy, ket kaslanto kayo dagitoy a tattao! Ta uramennanto ida.
Thus says the Lord, the God of hosts: “Since you have spoken this word, behold, I will make my words in your mouth like fire and this people like wood, and it will devour them.
15 Kitaem, umadanin ti panangiyegko iti maysa a nasion a maibusor kadakayo manipud iti adayo, balay ti Israel- kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh- nabileg daytoy a nasion, nasion nga addan idi un-unana! Daytoy ket nasion a saanyo nga ammo ti pagsasaoda, wenno maawatan dagiti ibagada.
Behold, O house of Israel, I will lead over you a far away nation, says the Lord, a robust nation, an ancient nation, a nation whose language you will not know, nor will you understand what they are saying.
16 Kasla silulukat a tanem ti pana daytoy. Soldadoda amin.
Their quiver is like an open sepulcher. They are all strong.
17 Isu a maibusto dagiti apityo, kasta met dagiti annakyo a lallaki ken babbai, ken taraonyo. Kanendanto dagiti arban iti karnero ken bakbakayo; kanendanto dagiti bunga ti ubasyo ken dagiti kayo ti igos. Rebbaendanto babaen iti kampilan dagiti nasarikedkedan a siudadyo nga isu a pagtaltalkanyo.
And they will consume your grain fields and your bread. They will devour your sons and your daughters. They will consume your flocks and your herds. They will consume your vineyards and your figs. And with the sword, they will crush your fortified cities, in which you have placed your trust.
18 Ngem uray kadagidiay nga al-aldaw- kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh- saanko a panggep a dadaelenkayo a naan-anay.
Yet truly, in those days, says the Lord, I will not bring the consummation over you.
19 inton dakayo, Israel ken Juda, ket kunayo, 'Apay nga inaramid kadatayo ni Yahweh a Diostayo amin dagitoy a banbanag? Ket sika, Jeremias, kunaemto kadakuada, 'Kas iti panangtallikudyo kenni Yahweh ken nagrukbabkayo kadagiti gangannaet a dios iti dagayo, agserbikayonto met ngarud kadagiti gangannaet iti daga a saanyo a kukua.'
And if they say, ‘Why has the Lord our God done all these things to us?’ You shall say to them: ‘Just as you have abandoned me and have served a strange god in your own land, so will you serve strangers in a land not your own.’
20 Ipadamagmo daytoy iti balay ni Jacob ken ipangngegmo iti Juda. Kunaem,
Announce this to the house of Jacob, and make it known in Judah, saying:
21 'Dengngenyo daytoy, dakayo a maag a tattao nga awan pannakaawatna; addaan kadagiti mata, ngem saan a makakita. Addaanda kadagiti lapayag, ngem saan a makangngeg.
Listen, O foolish people who have no heart! You have eyes, but you do not see, and ears, but you do not hear.
22 Saankayo kadi nga agbuteng kaniak- kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh-wenno agpigerger iti sangoanak? Nangikabilak iti darat a kas pannakabeddeng ti baybay, maysa nga agnanayon a paglintegan a saanna a malabsing- uray pay agpangato ken agpababa ti baybay, kaskasdi a saanna a labsingen daytoy. Uray pay agdaranudor dagiti dalluyon daytoy, saanda a lumabes iti daytoy.
So then, will you not fear me, says the Lord. And will you not have sorrow before my face? I have placed the shore as a limit for the sea, as an everlasting precept that it will not transgress. And its waves will crash, but they will not prevail; and its waves will swell, but they will not go across.
23 Ngem addaan iti natangken a panagpuspuso dagitoy a tattao. Nagsukir ken pimmanawda.
But the heart of this people has become incredulous and provocative; they have turned away and departed.
24 Ta saanda a kunaen kadagiti puspusoda, “Agbutengtayo kenni Yahweh a Diostayo, nga isu ti mangmangyeg iti tudo- ti umuna ken maudi a tudo- iti apag-isu a tiempoda, a mangipasigurado iti naituding a lawlawas a panagaapittayo.” Ti kinadakesyo ti nanglapped iti pannakapasamak dagitoy a banbanag.
And they have not said in their heart: ‘Let us dread the Lord our God, who gives us the timely and the late rains, in their proper time, who guards the full measure of the yearly harvest for us.’
25 Dagiti basbasolyo ti nanglapped iti iyuumay ti naimbag kadakayo.
Your iniquities have turned these things away, and your sins have held back good things from you.
26 Ta adda nadangkes a lallaki a nailaok kadagiti tattaok. Agbanbantayda a kas iti maysa nga agar-arudok nga agtiliw kadagiti billit; mangipakatda iti palab-og ken tiliwenda dagiti tattao.
For the impious are found among my people; they lie in ambush like fowlers setting snares, for they set traps to catch men.
27 Kas iti tangkal a napunno iti bilbillit, napnoan iti panangallilaw dagiti babbalayda. Isu a dimmakkel ken bimmaknangda.
Just as a snare is full of birds, so are their houses full of deceit. As a result, they have become exalted and enriched.
28 Limmukmegda; uray la simmileng dagiti kudilda iti kinapintas ti panagbiagda. Limmabesda kadagiti amin a beddeng ti kinadakes. Saanda nga ipakaasi ti kalintegan dagiti tattao, wenno ikanawa dagiti ulila. Rumangrang-ayda uray no saanda nga inikkan iti kalintegan dagiti agkasapulan.
They have grown stout and fat. And they have transgressed my words most wickedly. They have not judged the case of the widow; they have not given guidance to the case of the orphan; and they have not judged a judgment for the poor.
29 Saan kadi a nasken a dusaek ida gapu kadagitoy a banbanag- kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh- ken saan kadi a rumbeng laeng a balsek ti nasion a kas iti daytoy?
Shall I not visit against these things, says the Lord? Or shall my soul not take vengeance on a nation of this kind?
30 Nakabutbuteng ken nakaal-alinggaget ti napasamak iti daga.
Astonishing and wondrous things have been done upon the earth.
31 Nagipadto dagiti profeta iti inaallilaw, ken agturturay dagiti papadi iti bukodda a bileg. Kaykayat dagiti tattaok ti kastoy a wagas, ngem anianto ti mapasamak iti kamaudianan?
The prophets have prophesied lies, and the priests have applauded with their hands, and my people have loved these things. So then, what shall be done at the very end?”
