Jeremias 1
1 Dagitoy dagiti sao ni Jeremias a putot ni Hilkias; maysa isuna kadagiti papadi idiay Anatot iti daga ti Benjamin.
The words of Jeremiah the son of Hilkiah, of the priests that [were] in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin:
2 Immay ti sao ni Yahweh kenkuana kadagiti aldaw ti ari ti Juda a ni Josias a putot ni Amon, iti maikasangapulo ket tallo a tawen a panagturayna.
To whom the word of the LORD came in the days of Josiah the son of Amon king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign.
3 Immay met daytoy kadagiti aldaw a ni Jehoyakim a putot ni Josias ti ari idiay Juda, agingga iti maikalima a bulan iti maika-sangapulo ket maysa a tawen a panagturay kas ari ni Zedekias a putot ni Josias idiay Juda, idi naitalaw a kas balud dagiti tattao ti Jerusalem.
It came also in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, to the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah the son of Josiah king of Judah, to the carrying away of Jerusalem captive in the fifth month.
4 Immay ti sao ni Yahweh kaniak a kunana,
Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
5 “Sakbay a binukelka iti aanakan, pinilikan; sakbay a naipasngayka, inlasinka; pinagbalinka a profeta kadagiti nasion.”
Before I formed thee in embryo I knew thee; and before thou wast born I sanctified thee, [and] I ordained thee a prophet to the nations.
6 “O Apo a Yahweh!” Kinunak, “Saanko nga ammo ti agsao, ta ubingak unay.”
Then said I, Ah, Lord GOD! behold, I cannot speak: for I [am] a child.
7 Ngem kinuna ni Yahweh kaniak, “Saanmo a kunaen, 'Ubingak unay'. Masapul a mapanka iti sadinoman a pangibaonak kenka, ken masapul nga ibagam ti aniaman nga ibilinko kenka!
But the LORD said to me, Say not, I [am] a child: for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatever I command thee thou shalt speak.
8 Saanka a mabuteng kadakuada, ta addaak kenka a mangispal kenka—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.”
Be not afraid of their faces: for I [am] with thee to deliver thee, saith the LORD.
9 Ket inyunnat ni Yahweh ti imana, sinagidna ti ngiwatko ket kinunana kaniak, “Ita, inkabilko ti saok iti ngiwatmo.
Then the LORD put forth his hand, and touched my mouth. And the LORD said to me, Behold, I have put my words in thy mouth.
10 Dutokanka ita nga aldaw kadagiti nasion ken kadagiti pagarian, a mangparut ken mangrebba, a mangdadael ken mangparmek, a mangbangon ken mangimula.”
See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.
11 Immay ti sao ni Yahweh kaniak a kunana, “Ania ti makitam Jeremias? Kinunak, “Makitak ti maysa a sanga ti almendras.”
Moreover the word of the LORD came to me, saying, Jeremiah, What seest thou? And I said, I see a rod of an almond-tree.
12 Kinuna ni Yahweh kaniak, “Husto ti nakitam, ta sipsiputak ti saok tapno maipatungpal daytoy.”
Then said the LORD to me, Thou hast well seen: for I will hasten my word to perform it.
13 Immay kaniak ti sao ni Yahweh iti maikadua a daras, a kunana, “Ania ti makitam?” Kinunak, “Makitak ti maysa a kaldero nga agburburek ti linaonna, nakatingeg manipud iti amianan.”
And the word of the LORD came to me the second time, saying, What seest thou? And I said, I see a seething pot; and its face [is] towards the north.
14 Kinuna ni Yahweh kaniak, “Addanto tumaud a didigra manipud amianan a sagrapen dagiti amin nga agnanaed iti daytoy a daga.
Then the LORD said to me, Out of the north an evil shall break forth upon all the inhabitants of the land.
15 Ta ay-ayabak dagiti amin a tribu kadagiti akin-amianan a pagarian, impakaammo ni Yahweh. Umaydanto, ket isaadto ti tunggal maysa ti tronona iti pagserkan kadagiti ruangan ti Jerusalem, kadagiti amin a pader a nakapalawlaw iti daytoy, ken kadagiti amin a siudad ti Juda.
For lo, I will call all the families of the kingdoms of the north, saith the LORD; and they shall come, and they shall set every one his throne at the entrance of the gates of Jerusalem, and against all its walls around, and against all the cities of Judah.
16 Kedngakto ida gapu iti amin a kinadakesda iti panangtallikudda kaniak, iti panangpuorda iti insenso a maipaay kadagiti didiosen, ken iti panangdayawda iti inaramid dagiti bukodda nga ima.
And I will utter my judgments against them touching all their wickedness, who have forsaken me, and have burned incense to other gods, and worshiped the works of their own hands.
17 Agsaganaka! Tumakderka ket ibagam kadakuada ti aniaman nga ibilinko kenka. Saanka nga agbuteng iti sangoananda, ta no saan, ad-adda pay a pagbutngenka iti sangoananda!
Thou therefore gird up thy loins, and arise, and speak to them all that I command thee: be not dismayed at their faces, lest I confound thee before them.
18 Denggem! Ita nga aldaw, pinagbalinka a nasarikedkedan a siudad, adigi a landok, ken bakud a bronse a maibusor iti entero a daga—maibusor kadagiti ari ti Juda, kadagiti opisiales daytoy, kadagiti padi daytoy, ken kadagiti tattao iti daga.
For behold, I have made thee this day a fortified city, and an iron pillar, and brazen walls against the whole land, against the kings of Judah, against her princes, against her priests, and against the people of the land.
19 Bumusordanto kenka, ngem saandakanto a maparmek, ta addaakto kenka a mangispal kenka—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.”
And they shall fight against thee; but they shall not prevail against thee; for I [am] with thee, saith the LORD, to deliver thee.
