Jeremias 50
1 Daytoy ti sao nga impakaammo ni Yahweh maipapan iti Babilonia, a daga dagiti Caldeo, babaen iti ima ni profeta Jeremias,
This is the Lord's message that he told Jeremiah the prophet to give about Babylon and the country of Babylonia.
2 “Ipakaammom kadagiti nasion ken pagdengngegem ida. Mangingatoka iti pagilasinan ket pagdengngegem ida. Saanmo nga ilemmeng daytoy. Kunam, 'Naparmeken ti Babilonia. Naibabainen ni Bel. Naupayen ni Merodak. Naibabainen dagiti didiosen daytoy; naupayen dagiti imahen daytoy.'
Tell everyone the news! Hold up a sign and shout it out, don't hold back! Tell them, Babylon has fallen! Her god Bel is humiliated; the power of her god Marduk is broken; all Babylon's idols are humiliated and their power is broken.
3 Bumangonto ti maysa a nasion manipud iti amianan a bumusor iti daytoy, tapno pagbalinenna a langalang ti daga. Awanto a pulos ti agnaed iti daytoy tao man wenno ayup. Tumaraydanto.
A northern nation will come and attack her and turn the country into a wasteland. No one will live there—both people and animals will desert it.
4 Kadagidiay nga al-aldaw ken iti dayta a tiempo— daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh—aguummongto nga agsangit dagiti tattao ti Israel ken dagiti tattao ti Juda ken sapulenda ni Yahweh a Diosda.
That's the time when the people of Israel and Judah will join together, weeping as they go to worship the Lord their God, declares the Lord.
5 Saludsodendanto ti dalan nga agturong iti Sion ket agsaganada nga agturong sadiay. Mapandanto makipagmaymaysa kenni Yahweh iti agnanayon a katulagan a saanto a malipat.
They will ask the way to Zion, and start going in that direction. They will arrive and commit themselves to the Lord in an everlasting agreement that won't ever be forgotten.
6 Naiyaw-awan nga arban dagiti tattaok. Inyaw-awan ida dagiti pastorda kadagiti kabanbantayan; pinaglikaw-likawda ida kadagiti turturod. Pimmanawda, nalipatanda ti lugar a nagnanaedanda.
My people are sheep that are lost, led astray by their shepherds, making them wander aimlessly in the mountains. They go from place to place in the mountains and hills, forgetting where they used to rest.
7 a napan kadakuada ket inalun-onda ida. Kinuna dagiti kabusorda, 'Saantayo a nakabasol, gapu ta nagbasolda kenni Yahweh, a pudpudno a pagtaenganda— ni Yahweh, a namnama dagiti kapuonanda.'
All those who came across them attacked them. Their enemies declared, “We're not to blame! They're the ones who sinned against the Lord, their true resting place; the Lord who was the hope of their forefathers.”
8 Pumanawkayo iti tengnga ti Babilonia; rummuarkayo manipud iti daga dagiti Caldeo; agbalinkayo koma a kasla kadagiti kalakian a kalding nga umun-una a pumanaw sakbay a rummuar dagiti dadduma iti arban.
Run away from the city of Babylon; get away from the country of Babylonia! Lead the way like the male goats that lead the flock.
9 Ta kitaenyo, ngannganikon pagtignayen ken bangonen ti maysa a bunggoy dagiti nabileg a nasion manipud iti amianan a maibusor iti Babilonia. Agsaganada a bumusor iti daytoy. Maparmekto ti Babilonia manipud sadiay. Dagiti panada ket kasla maysa a nalaing a mannakigubat a saan nga agsubli nga ima-ima.
Look! I'm assembling a coalition of strong northern nations who will come and attack Babylon. They will line up in battle against her; she will be conquered from the north. Their arrows will be like the best warriors—they don't miss!
10 Agbalinto a samsam ti Caldeo. Mapnekto amin a mangsamsam iti daytoy—daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh.
Babylonia will be plundered—everyone who plunders her will have plenty of loot, declares the Lord.
11 Agragrag-okayo, ramrambakanyo ti pannakasamsam ti tawidko; aglaglagtokayo a kasla maysa nga urbon a baka nga aglanglang-ay iti pagarabanna; aggargaraigikayo a kasla maysa a napigsa a kabalio.
Though for now you Babylonians celebrate and sing triumphantly as you plunder my special people, though for now you jump around like a frisky young cow treading out the grain, and neigh like stallions,
12 Ngem maibabainto unay ti inayo; maibabainto ti nangipasngay kadakayo. Kitaenyo, agbalinto isuna a kanunomoan kadagiti nasion, maysa a let-ang, maysa a natikag a daga ken maysa a disierto.
you are going to bring shame on your mother, you are going to disgrace the one who gave birth to you. Watch as she becomes the least important of all the nations, a wilderness, a dry desert land.
13 Gapu iti pungtot ni Yahweh, Saanto a mapagnaedan ti Babilonia, ngem agbalinto a naan-anay a nadadael. Agpigergerto amin a lumabas gapu iti Babilonia ken agsakuntipto gapu kadagiti amin a sugat daytoy.
Because of Lord's angry punishment, she will be deserted, completely desolate. Everyone who passes by will be horrified at what has happened to Babylon, and sneer at all her wounds.
14 Agsaganakayo a manglawlaw iti Babilonia. Amin a mangibiat iti panana ket masapul a panaenna daytoy. Saankayo a mangibati kadagiti panayo, ta nagbasol daytoy a maibusor kenni Yahweh.
All you archers, line up ready for battle around Babylon. Shoot at her! Don't save your arrows, because she has sinned against the Lord.
15 Agpukkawkayo a sibaballigi a maibusor iti Babilonia iti amin nga aglawlawna. Inrukmanan ti kinabilegna; narpuogen dagiti torrena. Narban dagiti paderna, ta kastoy ti panangibales ni Yahweh. Agibaleskayo iti daytoy! Aramidenyo iti daytoy ti kas iti inaramidna kadagiti dadduma a nasion!
Shout war-cries against her from every side! She holds up her hands in surrender. Her towers have collapsed; her walls are demolished. This is the Lord paying her back, so you too can pay her back—do the same to her as she did to others.
16 Dadaelenyo nga agpada dagiti agmulmula ken dagiti agus-usar iti kumpay iti tiempo ti panagaapit idiay Babilonia. Agsubli koma ti tunggal tao iti bukodna a tattao manipud iti kampilan ti mangidadanes; agsublida koma iti bukodda a daga.
Stop the sower from sowing in the country of Babylon, and stop the harvester swinging the sickle to reap the grain. Under the threat of the enemies' swords, everyone runs home to their own people, they go back to where they came from.
17 Ti Israel ket naiwarawara a karnero ken binugaw dagiti leon. Ti ari ti Asiria ti immuna a nangalun-on iti daytoy; ket kalpasan daytoy, tinukkol ni Nebucadnesar nga ari ti Babilonia dagiti tulangna.
The Israelites are a flock that's been chased and scattered by lions. The first on the attack was the king of Assyria; then lastly Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon crushed their bones.
18 Ngarud, ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin, a Dios ti Israel, kastoy ti kuna: Kitaem, ngannganin ti tiempo a panangdusak iti ari ti Babilonia ken ti dagana, a kas iti panangdusak iti ari ti Asiria.
So this is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: I'm going to punish the king of Babylon and his country just like I punished the king of Assyria.
19 Isublikto ti Israel iti dagana; Agarabto isuna idiay Carmel ken Basan. Ket mapnekto isuna idiay turod a pagilian ti Efraim ken Galaad.
I will lead the Israelites back to their pasturelands, to feed on Carmel and Bashan, to satisfy their appetites on the hills of Ephraim and Gilead.
20 Kadagidiay nga al-aldaw ken iti dayta a tiempo, kuna ni Yahweh, agbirokdanto iti nakaro a basol ti Israel, ngem awanto iti masarakan. Agsaludsodakto maipapan kadagiti basol ti Juda, ngem awanto iti masarakan, ta pakawanekto dagiti natda nga imbatik.”
This will be when the guilt and the sins of Israel and Judah will be looked for, but none will be found, because I will forgive those people who remain that I'm looking after, declares the Lord.
21 “Tumakderka a maibusor iti daga ti Merataim, maibusor iti daytoy ken kadagiti agnanaed iti Pekod. Papatayem ida babaen iti kampilan ken ilasinmo ida para iti pannakadadael— daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh— aramidem amin a banbanag nga ibilbilinko kenka.
Go and attack the land of Merathaim, and the people living in Pekod. Kill them with swords, set them apart for destruction, along with everything they leave behind. Make sure you do everything I have ordered you to do, declares the Lord.
22 Ti daranudor ti gubat ken ti nakaro a pannakadadael ket adda iti daga.
The noise of battle is heard in the country, the noise of terrible destruction.
23 Anian a pannakadadael ti martilio dagiti amin a daga. Anian ta nagbalin ti Babilonia a pagbutbutngan dagiti nasion.
See how the hammer of the whole earth is lying broken in pieces in the ground! The nations look with horror on what Babylon has become!
24 Nangisaganaak iti silo para kenka. Natiliwka Babilonia, ket saanmo nga ammo daytoy! Nasarakanka ket tiniliwka, agsipud ta kinaritnak, siak a ni Yahweh.
Babylon, I set a trap for you, and you were caught before you realized it. You were hunted down and captured because you fought against the Lord.
25 Linukatan ni Yahweh ti pagiduldulinan ti armasna ket inruarna dagiti igamna gapu iti pungtotna. Adda trabaho ni Yahweh nga Apo a Mannakabalin-amin idiay daga dagiti Caldeo.
In his anger the Lord opened his armory to bring out his weapons, for this is what the Lord God Almighty is doing in the country of Babylonia.
26 Rautem ti Babilonia manipud iti adayo. Lukatam dagiti garongna ken ummungem daytoy a kasla gabsuon iti bukbukel. Ilasinmo isuna para iti pannakadadael. Awan iti ibatim kenkuana.
Come and attack her from every side! Open her granaries; collect the loot you take from her like piles of grain. Set her apart for destruction; don't leave any survivors.
27 Patayem amin dagiti bulogna. Ibaonmo ida iti lugar a pagpatpatayan. Asida pay, ta dimtengen ti aldawda— ti tiempo a pannakadusada.
Kill all her young bulls with the sword; let them be slaughtered. What a disaster for them, because their time has come when they're punished.
28 Adda iti dalagudog dagiti agtataray, dagiti nakalasat, manipud iti daga ti Babilonia. Ipadamag dagitoy ti panagibales ni Yahweh a Diostayo para iti Sion, ken panagibales para iti templona.”
(Listen to the refugees and survivors who have returned from Babylonia, announcing in Zion, “The Lord our God is paying them back for what happened to his Temple.”)
29 Paayabam dagiti pumapana a maibusor iti Babilonia— dagiti amin a mangibibiat iti panada. Agkampokayo a maibusor iti Babilonia, ket saanyo nga ipalubos nga adda makalibas. Pagbayadenyo isuna iti inaramidna. Aramidenyo kenkuana ti kas iti inaramidna. Ta tinulawanna ni Yahweh, a Nasantoan ti Israel.
Call up the archers to attack Babylon, yes, all of them! Completely surround her—don't let anyone escape. Pay her back for what she's done, because in her pride she defied the Lord, Israel's Holy One.
30 Isu a maidasayto dagiti agtutubona a lallaki kadagiti paguummongan a disso iti siudad, ken madadaelto amin dagiti mannakigubatna a lallaki iti dayta nga aldaw— daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh.”
As a result her young men will be killed in the streets; all her soldiers will die that day, declares the Lord.
31 Kitaem, maibusorak kenka, sika a natangsit—daytoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh nga Apo a Mannakabalin-amin—ta dimtengen ti aldawmo, sika a natangsit, ti tiempo a dusaenka.
Watch out, because I'm against you, you arrogant people! declares the Lord God Almighty. Your time has come when I will punish you.
32 Isu a maitibkol ken matumbanto dagiti natangsit. Awanto ti mangibangon kadakuada. Mangpasgedakto iti apuy kadagiti siudadda; Alun-unento daytoy dagiti amin a banag iti aglawlawna.
You arrogant people will trip and fall. Nobody will be there to pick you up. I'm going to set fire to your towns and burn up everything around you.
33 Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin amin: Maparparigat dagiti tattao ti Israel, a kaduada dagiti tattao ti Juda. Amin a nangtiliw kadakuada ket tengtenglenda pay laeng ida; agkedkedda a mangwayawaya kadakuada.
This is what the Lord Almighty says: The people of Israel and Judah are being mistreated. All who captured them are holding onto them, refusing to let them go.
34 Nabileg ti mangis-ispal kadakuada. Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin ti naganna. Pudno nga ikanawananto ida, tapno iyegna ti inana iti daga, ken iyegna ti riribuk kadagiti agnanaed iti Babilonia.
But the one who rescues them is powerful; the Lord Almighty is his name. He will defend them and their cause, so he may bring peace on earth, but trouble to the people of Babylon.
35 Adda kampilan a maibusor kadagiti Caldeo — kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—ken maibusor kadagiti agnanaed iti Babilonia, kadagiti mangidadaulona, ken dagiti mamasiribna a lallaki.
A sword is raised to attack the Babylonians, declares the Lord, ready to attack those who live in Babylon, and her officials and wise men.
36 Adda kampilan nga umay a maibusor kadagiti agipadpadles, tapno ipakitada a mismo a maagda. Adda kampilan nga umay a maibusor kadagiti soldadona, isu a mabutengdanto la unay.
A sword is raised to attack her false prophets, and they will become fools. A sword is raised to attack her soldiers, and they will be terrified.
37 Adda kampilan nga umay a maibusor kadagiti kabalioda, kadagiti karuaheda ken kadagiti amin a tattao nga adda iti tengnga ti Babilonia, isu nga agbalindanto a kasla babbai. Adda kampilan nga umay a maibusor kadagiti kamaligna, ket masamsamandanto.
A sword is raised to attack her horses and chariots, along with all the foreign soldiers with her, and they will become like frightened women. A sword is raised to attack her stores of treasure, and they will be plundered.
38 Adda kampilan nga umay a maibusor kadagiti danumna, isu a matianandanto. Ta ti Babilonia ket maysa a daga dagiti awan serserbina a didiosen, ken agtigtignayda a kas kadagiti tattao a pinagbagtit dagiti nakabutbuteng nga imahenda.
A drought has hit her rivers, and they will dry up. For it's a country full of pagan images. These horrible idols drive their worshipers mad.
39 Agnaedto ngarud sadiay dagiti ayup ti desierto a kadua dagiti atap nga aso, ken agnaedto iti daytoy dagiti piyek dagiti ostrich. Ta iti amin a tiempo, saanton a mapagnaedan daytoy. Iti amin a henerasion, awanto iti agnaed iti daytoy.
Consequently desert animals and hyenas will live there, and it will be a home for owls. It will be uninhabited forever—it won't be lived in from one generation to the next.
40 Kas iti panangdadael ti Dios iti Sodoma ken Gomorra ken kadagiti kaarrubada— daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh— awanto iti agnaed sadiay; awanto ti tao nga aggian iti daytoy.”
In the same way that God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah and their neighboring towns, declares the Lord, no one will live there, no one will stay there.
41 Kitaem, adda tattao nga umay manipud idiay amianan, ta agsagsagana ti maysa a nabileg a nasion ken dagiti adu nga ari manipud iti adayo a daga.
Look! An army is advancing from the north. A great nation and many kings are coming against you from the distant lands.
42 Nakaiggemdanto kadagiti pana ken gaygayang. Nauyongda ken awan iti asida. Ti daranudorda ket kasla ungor ti baybay, ken nakasakayda kadagiti kabalio a nakasagana a kas kadagiti mannakigubat a lallaki, a maibusor kenka, annak a babbai ti Babilonia.
They're carrying bows and javelins. They are cruel and merciless. When they shout it's like the sea roaring. They ride on horses and attack in formation against you, people of Babylon.
43 Nangngeg ti ari ti Babilonia ti impadamagda ket kimmapsut dagiti imana gapu iti ladingit. Napalalo nga ut-ot ti marikriknana a kas iti agpaspasikal a babai.
The king of Babylon has heard the news and he's terrified. He's overcome with fear, in pain like a woman in labor.
44 Adtoy! Sumangsang-at isuna a kasla leon manipud kadagiti kabanbantayan ti Jordan nga agturong iti nalangto a pagaraban, ta pagtarayekto ida a dagus manipud iti daytoy, ket mangisaadakto iti maysa a tao a mangimaton iti daytoy. Ta adda kadi iti kas kaniak, ken adda kadi iti makapaayab kaniak? Adda kadi agpaspastor a makabael nga agkedked kaniak?
Watch out! I'm going to come like a lion from the tangled undergrowth beside the Jordan to attack the animals grazing the green pasture. In fact I'm going to chase the Babylonians from their land very quickly. Who will I choose to conquer them? Who is like me? Who can challenge me? Which leader could oppose me?
45 Isu a denggenyo dagiti panggep nga inkeddeng ni Yahweh a maibusor iti Babilonia, dagiti plano a pinanggepna a maibusor iti daga dagiti Caldeo. Maitalawdanto, uray dagiti kababassitan nga arban. Agbalinto a langalang dagiti pagpaarabanda.
So listen to what the Lord has planned to do to Babylon and the country of Babylonia: Their children will be dragged away like lambs from the flock, and because of them their pasture will become a wasteland.
46 Iti daranudor ti pannakaparmek ti Babilonia aggingined ti daga, ken ti riyaw ti pannakaparigatda ket mangngeg kadagiti nasion.”
The sound of Babylon's capture will make the earth shake; their cries will be heard throughout the nations.
