1 Saanen a narimat ti balitok; nagbaliwen ti kapupuroan a balitok. Naibukboken dagiti nasagradoan a batbato iti nagsasabatan dagiti kalsada.
[ALEPH-BET] How the gold has become dim, Changed the best—the pure gold! Stones of the sanctuary are poured out At the head of all out-places.
2 Napateg unay idi dagiti annak ti Sion, napatpateg ngem iti puro a balitok. Ngem itan ket kaiyariganda laengen ti burnay nga inaramid ti agdamdamili.
The precious sons of Zion, Who are comparable with fine gold, How they have been reckoned earthen bottles, Work of the hands of a potter.
3 Uray dagiti atap nga aso ket iparangda dagiti susoda tapno pasusoenda dagiti ukenda, ngem ti babai nga anak dagiti tattaok ket naranggas a maiyarig iti abestrus iti disierto.
Even dragons have drawn out the breast, They have suckled their young ones, The daughter of my people has become cruel, Like the ostriches in a wilderness.
4 Dumket ti dila ti agsuso nga ubing iti ngangawna gapu iti pannakawawna, dumawat dagiti ubbing iti tinapay, ngem awan ti maited para kadakuada.
The tongue of a suckling has cleaved to his palate with thirst, Infants asked for bread, they have no dealer [of it] out.
5 Dagiti tattao a sigud a mangmangan iti agkakangina a taraon ket nabaybay-anen a mabisbisinan kadagiti kalsada; dagiti sigud nga agkawkawes iti nalabbaga a pagan-anay ket addan ita iti tuktok dagiti gabsuon dagiti basura.
Those eating of delicacies have been desolate in out-places, Those supported on scarlet have embraced dunghills.
6 Ti nagbasolan ti babai nga anak dagiti tattaok ket dakdakkel ngem iti basol ti Sodoma, a naibelleng iti apagdarikmat uray no awan nangtiliw iti daytoy.
And greater is the iniquity of the daughter of my people, Than the sin of Sodom, That was overturned as [in] a moment, And no hands were stayed on her.
7 Dagiti mangidadaulo kenkuana ket sigud a kasla nasileng a niebe ken kas kapudaw iti gatas. Nalablabbaga ti bagbagida ngem iti napintas a rubi iti baybay; kasla safiro ti sukogda.
Purer were her Nazarites than snow, Whiter than milk, ruddier of body than rubies, Of sapphire their form.
8 Ita ket pinangisiten ti kasipngetan dagiti langada, ket narigatdan a mabigbig kadagiti kalkalsada, ta dimketen dagiti kudilda kadagiti tultulangda. Nagangon daytoy a kas iti kayo!
Their face has been darker than blackness, They have not been known in out-places, Their skin has cleaved to their bone, It has withered—it has been as wood.
9 Dagiti napapatay babaen iti kampilan ket am-amang a nasaysayaatda ngem dagiti natay gapu iti bisin; nasaysayaatda nga amang ngem kadagiti nakapsut; nga arigna a naduyok gapu iti bisin iti kinaawan ti apit kadagiti talon.
Better have been the pierced of a sword Than the pierced of famine, For these flow away, pierced through, Without the increase of the field.
10 Inluto dagiti ima dagiti naasi a babbai dagiti mismo nga annakda; dagitoy nga ubbing ket nagbalin a taraonda kabayatan ti pannakarumek ti babai nga anak dagiti tattaok.
The hands of merciful women have boiled their own children, They have been for food to them, In the destruction of the daughter of my people.
11 Pinennek ni Yahweh ti pungtotna. Imbukbokna ti umap-apuy nga ungetna; kasla nangpasged isuna idiay Sion ket inkisap daytoy dagiti pundasionna.
YHWH has completed His fury, He has poured out the fierceness of His anger, And He kindles a fire in Zion, And it devours her foundations.
12 Uray dagiti ari ditoy daga wenno ti siasinoman nga agnanaed iti daytoy a lubong ket saan a mamati nga adda makastrek a kasupiat ken kabusor kadagiti ruangan ti Jerusalem.
The kings of earth did not believe, And any of the inhabitants of the world, That an adversary and enemy would come Into the gates of Jerusalem.
13 Ngem inaramidda, gapu kadagiti basbasol dagiti profetana, ken kadagiti nagkurangan dagiti papadina a nangpasayasay iti dara dagiti nalilinteg.
Because of the sins of her prophets, The iniquities of her priests, Who are shedding in her midst the blood of the righteous,
14 Agalla-alla itan dagidiay a profeta ken papadi a kas kadagiti bulsek kadagiti kalkalsada. Natulawandan babaen iti dayta a dara isu nga awan ti makabael nga uray mangsagid kadagiti kawesda.
They have wandered naked in out-places, They have been defiled with blood, Without [any] being able to touch their clothing,
15 “Panaw! Dakayo a narugit,” kastoy ti ipukpukkaw dagitoy a propeta ken papadi. “Pumanawkayo! Saandakami a sagsagiden!” Isu a nagalla-allada kadagiti nadumaduma a daga, ngem uray dagiti Hentil ket kunkunada, “Saandan a makapagnaed ditoy a kas ganggannaet.”
“Turn aside—unclean,” they called to them, “Turn aside, turn aside, do not touch,” For they fled—indeed, they have wandered, They have said among nations: “They do not add to sojourn.”
16 Inwaras ida ni Yahweh manipud iti imatangna, saanna idan a kakaasian. Awanen ti mangpasangbay nga addaan iti panagraem kadagiti papadi, ken ipakpakitada a saandan a kailalaan dagiti panglakayen.
The face of YHWH has divided them, He does not add to behold them, They have not lifted up the face of priests, They have not favored [the] old and elderly.
17 Kanayon a mapaay dagiti matami a makasarak iti awan kaaspingna a tulong, numan pay sigagagarda a nangkita iti nasion a saan met a mangisalakan kadakami.
While we exist—consumed are our eyes for our vain help, In our watchtower we have watched for a nation [that] does not save.
18 Inan-anupda dagiti tugotmi kadagiti kalsada. Asidegen ti kanibusananmi ken mabilbilangen dagiti al-aldawmi, ta dimtengen ti panungpalanmi.
They have hunted our steps from going in our broad-places, Near has been our end, fulfilled our days, For our end has come.
19 Naparpartak dagiti mangkamkamat kadakami ngem dagiti agila iti tangatang. Inanupdakami agingga kadagiti banbantay sadakami pinadaanan iti let-ang.
Swifter have been our pursuers, Than the eagles of the heavens, On the mountains they have burned [after] us, In the wilderness they have laid wait for us.
20 Ti anges iti agongmi, ti dinutokan ni Yahweh - ti arimi, ket napalab-ogan babaen kadagiti abut; ti arimi a nangibagaanmi nga, “Agbiagkami kadagiti nasion iti babaen ti panangsalaknibna.”
The breath of our nostrils—the anointed of YHWH, Has been captured in their pits, of whom we said: “We live among nations in his shadow.”
21 Agrag-o ken agragsakka, babai nga anak ti Edom nga agnanaed iti daga ti Us, ta maipasanto kenka ti kopa. Mabartekkanto ken silalamo-lamo.
Rejoice and be glad, O daughter of Edom, Dwelling in the land of Uz, Even to you a cup passes over, You are drunk, and make yourself naked.
22 Naggibusen ti dusam, babai nga anak ti Sion. Saannakan a paipanaw. Ngem dusaennaka iti nagbasolam, babai nga anak ti Edom. Lukaisannanto pay dagiti basbasolmo.
Completed [is] your iniquity, daughter of Zion, He does not add to remove you, He has inspected your iniquity, O daughter of Edom, He has removed [you] because of your sins!
