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.
“Run back and forth through the streets of Jerusalem, and see now, and know, and seek in its wide places, if you can find a man, if there is anyone who does justly, who seeks truth, then I will pardon her.
2 Uray no kunada, 'Iti nagan ni Yahweh nga adda iti agnanayon,' inuulbod ti panagsapatada.”
Though they say, ‘As the LORD lives,’ surely 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, don’t your eyes look on truth? You have stricken them, but they were not grieved. You have consumed them, but they have refused to receive correction. They have made their faces harder than a rock. They have refused 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.
Then I said, “Surely these are poor. They are foolish; for they don’t know the LORD’s way, nor the law 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.
I will go to the great men and will speak to them, for they know the way of the LORD, and the law of their God.” But these with one accord have broken the yoke, and burst 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.
Therefore a lion out of the forest will kill them. A wolf of the evenings will destroy them. A leopard will watch against their cities. Everyone who goes out there will be torn in pieces, because their transgressions are many and their backsliding has increased.
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.
“How can I pardon you? Your children have forsaken me, and sworn by what are no gods. When I had fed them to the full, they committed adultery, and assembled themselves in troops at the prostitutes’ houses.
8 Kaslada la kadagiti kabalio a makataktakba. Aggarraigida gapu iti tarigagayda a tumakba. Tarigagayan ti tunggal lalaki ti asawa ti kaarrubana.
They were as fed horses roaming at large. Everyone neighed after his neighbour’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?
Shouldn’t I punish them for these things?” says the LORD. “Shouldn’t my soul be avenged on such a nation 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.
“Go up on her walls, and destroy, but don’t make a full end. Take away her branches, 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 dealt very treacherously 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 said, “It is not he. Evil won’t come on us. We won’t see sword or famine.
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 will become wind, and the word is not in them. Thus it will be done 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.
Therefore the LORD, the God of Hosts says, “Because you speak this word, behold, I will make my words in your mouth fire, and this people 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, I will bring a nation on you from far away, house of Israel,” says the LORD. “It is a mighty nation. It is an ancient nation, a nation whose language you don’t know and don’t understand what they say.
16 Kasla silulukat a tanem ti pana daytoy. Soldadoda amin.
Their quiver is an open tomb. They are all mighty men.
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.
They will eat up your harvest and your bread, which your sons and your daughters should eat. They will eat up your flocks and your herds. They will eat up your vines and your fig trees. They will beat down your fortified cities in which you trust with the sword.
18 Ngem uray kadagidiay nga al-aldaw- kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh- saanko a panggep a dadaelenkayo a naan-anay.
“But even in those days,” says the LORD, “I will not make a full end of 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.'
It will happen when you say, ‘Why has the LORD our God done all these things to us?’ Then you shall say to them, ‘Just as you have forsaken me and served foreign gods in your land, so you will serve strangers in a land that is not yours.’
20 Ipadamagmo daytoy iti balay ni Jacob ken ipangngegmo iti Juda. Kunaem,
“Declare this in the house of Jacob, and publish it 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.
‘Hear this now, foolish people without understanding, who have eyes, and don’t see, who have ears, and don’t 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.
Don’t you fear me?’ says the LORD; ‘Won’t you tremble at my presence, who have placed the sand for the bound of the sea by a perpetual decree, that it can’t pass it? Though its waves toss themselves, yet they can’t prevail. Though they roar, they still can’t pass over it.’
23 Ngem addaan iti natangken a panagpuspuso dagitoy a tattao. Nagsukir ken pimmanawda.
“But this people has a revolting and a rebellious heart. They have revolted and gone.
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.
They don’t say in their heart, ‘Let’s now fear the LORD our God, who gives rain, both the former and the latter, in its season, who preserves to us the appointed weeks of the harvest.’
25 Dagiti basbasolyo ti nanglapped iti iyuumay ti naimbag kadakayo.
“Your iniquities have turned away these things, and your sins have withheld good 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 wicked men are found amongst my people. They watch, as fowlers lie in wait. They set a trap. They catch men.
27 Kas iti tangkal a napunno iti bilbillit, napnoan iti panangallilaw dagiti babbalayda. Isu a dimmakkel ken bimmaknangda.
As a cage is full of birds, so are their houses full of deceit. Therefore they have become great, and grew rich.
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 fat. They shine; yes, they excel in deeds of wickedness. They don’t plead the cause, the cause of the fatherless, that they may prosper; and they don’t defend the rights of the needy.
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?
“Shouldn’t I punish for these things?” says the LORD. “Shouldn’t my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?
30 Nakabutbuteng ken nakaal-alinggaget ti napasamak iti daga.
“An astonishing and horrible thing has happened in the land.
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 prophesy falsely, and the priests rule by their own authority; and my people love to have it so. What will you do in the end of it?
