< Joel 3 >

1 Pagammoan, iti dayta met laeng a tiempo, inton isublik idiay Juda ken Jerusalem dagiti naitalaw a tattao,
For, behold, in those days, and in that time, when I shall bring again the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem,
2 ummongekto dagiti amin a nasion, ket paapanek ida iti tanap ni Jehosafat. Ukomekto ida sadiay gapu kadagiti tattaok ken iti tawidko nga Israel nga inwarawarasda kadagiti nasion, ken gapu ta biningay-bingayda ti dagak.
I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land.
3 Pinagbibinnunotanda dagiti tattaok, insukatda dagiti lallaki kadagiti balangkantis, ken naglakoda iti babai a kasukat ti arak tapno makainumda.
And they have cast lots for my people; and have given a boy for an harlot, and sold a girl for wine, that they might drink.
4 Ita, apay a kaungetdak, Tiro, Sidon, ken amin a rehion ti Filistia? Balsendak kadi? Urayno balsendak, ipalak-amkonto a dagus kadakayo ti panangibalesyo.
Yea, and what have ye to do with me, O Tyre, and Zidon, and all the coasts of Palestine? will ye render me a recompence? and if ye recompence me, swiftly and speedily will I return your recompence upon your own head;
5 Ta innalayo ti pirak ken balitokko, ket impanyo dagiti napapateg a gamengko kadagiti temployo.
Because ye have taken my silver and my gold, and have carried into your temples my goodly pleasant things:
6 Inlakoyo dagiti tattao ti Juda ken Jerusalem kadagiti Griego, tapno maipanawda kadagiti dagada.
The children also of Judah and the children of Jerusalem have ye sold unto the Grecians, that ye might remove them far from their border.
7 Ngem kitaenyo, dandanik idan ipanaw kadagiti lugar a nangilakoanyo kadakuada, ket supapakankayonto iti maiparbeng kadakayo.
Behold, I will raise them out of the place whither ye have sold them, and will return your recompence upon your own head:
8 Ilakokto dagiti annakyo a lallaki ken babbai kadagiti ima dagiti tattao ti Juda. Ilakodanto ida kadagiti taga-Saba, iti adayo a nasion. Ta ni Yahweh ti nagsao iti daytoy.
And I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hand of the children of Judah, and they shall sell them to the Sabeans, to a people far off: for YHWH hath spoken it.
9 Iwaragawagyo daytoy kadagiti nasion: 'Agsaganakayo a makigubat, ummongenyo dagiti nabileg a lallaki, paasitgenyo ida, pagpuestoenyo dagiti amin a mannakigubat.
Proclaim ye this among the Gentiles; Prepare war, wake up the mighty men, let all the men of war draw near; let them come up:
10 Pitpitenyo dagiti aradoyo tapno agbalin a kampilan ken dagiti kumpayyo tapno agbalin a gayang. Kunaen koma dagiti nakapuy, “Napigsaak.”
Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruninghooks into spears: let the weak say, I am strong.
11 Darasenyo ti umay, dakayo amin a kabangibang a nasion, aguummongkayo.' O Yahweh, paapanem sadiay dagiti nabileg a mannakigubatmo.
Assemble yourselves, and come, all ye heathen, and gather yourselves together round about: thither cause thy mighty ones to come down, O YHWH.
12 Agriing koma dagiti nasion ket mapanda idiay tanap ni Jehosafat. Ta agtugawakto sadiay a mangukom kadagiti amin a kabangibang a nasion.
Let the heathen be wakened, and come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat: for there will I sit to judge all the heathen round about.
13 Alaenyo dagiti kumpay, ta naluomen ti apit. Umaykayo, pespesenyo dagiti ubas, ta napnon ti pagpespesan ti ubas, agluplupias dagiti pagkargaan, ta kasta unay ti kinadangkesda.”
Put ye in the sickle, for the harvest is ripe: come, get you down; for the press is full, the fats overflow; for their wickedness is great.
14 Adda iti ariwawa, ariwawa idiay tanap ti Panangukom. Ta asidegen ti aldaw ni Yahweh iti tanap ti Panangukom.
Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of YHWH is near in the valley of decision.
15 Sumipnget ti init ken bulan, saanen nga agraniag dagiti bituen.
The sun and the moon shall be darkened, and the stars shall withdraw their shining.
16 Agpukkawto ni Yahweh manipud Sion, ken ipigsananto ti timekna idiay Jerusalem. Agkintayegto ti langit ken daga, ngem agbalinto ni Yahweh a kamang dagiti tattaona, ken sarikedked dagiti tattao ti Israel.
YHWH also shall roar out of Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the heavens and the earth shall shake: but YHWH will be the hope of his people, and the strength of the children of Israel.
17 “Ket maammoanyonto a siak ni Yahweh a Diosyo, nga agnanaed idiay Sion, ti nasantoan a bantayko. Kalpasanna, agbalinto a nasantoan ti Jerusalem, ken awanto ti armada a mangparmek manen kenkuana.
So shall ye know that I am YHWH your Elohim dwelling in Zion, my holy mountain: then shall Jerusalem be holy, and there shall no strangers pass through her any more.
18 Iti dayta nga aldaw, agtedtedto ti nasam-it nga arak kadagiti kabanbantayan, agayusto iti gatas kadagiti turturod, agayusto iti danum kadagiti amin a waig ti Juda, ken agtaudto ti burayok iti balay ni Yahweh ket padanumannanto ti tanap ti Acacia.
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the mountains shall drop down new wine, and the hills shall flow with milk, and all the rivers of Judah shall flow with waters, and a fountain shall come forth of the house of YHWH, and shall water the valley of Shittim.
19 Agbalinto a langalang ti Egipto, ken agbalinto a disierto ti Edom, gapu iti kinaranggas nga inaramidda kadagiti tattao ti Juda, gapu ta pinapatayda dagiti inosente a tattao idiay daga dagiti tattao ti Juda.
Egypt shall be a desolation, and Edom shall be a desolate wilderness, for the violence against the children of Judah, because they have shed innocent blood in their land.
20 Ngem agbiagto ti Juda iti agnanayon, ken agbiagto ti Jerusalem iti tunggal henerasion.
But Judah shall dwell for ever, and Jerusalem from generation to generation.
21 Ibaleskonto ti pannakatayda a saanko pay a naibales,” ta agnanaed ni Yahweh idiay Sion.
For I will cleanse their blood that I have not cleansed: for YHWH dwelleth in Zion.
