Malakias 1
1 Ti pannakaipablaak ti sao ni Yahweh para iti Israel babaen kenni Malakias.
The oracle of the word of Yahweh, unto Israel, —by the hand of Malachi.
2 “Inayatkayo,” kuna ni Yahweh. Ngem kunayo, “Kasanonakami nga inayat?” “Saan kadi a kabsat ni Jacob ni Esau?” kuna ni Yahweh.
I have loved you, saith Yahweh, and yet ye say, Wherein hast thou loved us? Is not Esau, brother, to Jacob? enquireth Yahweh, Yet have I loved Jacob,
3 “Ngem inayatko ni Jacob, idinto a ginurak ni Esau. Pinagbalinko a langalang dagiti bantayna, ket pinagbalinko ti tawidna a lugar dagiti atap nga aso ti let-ang.”
And, Esau, have I hated, — and made his mountains a desolation, and his inheritance [a dwelling] for the jackals of the wilderness.
4 No kuna ti Edom, “Naabaktayo, ngem agsublitayo ket bangonentayo dagiti nadadael;” Kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin amin, “Ibangondanto, ngem duprakekto; ket panagananto ida dagiti lallaki a 'Ti pagilian iti kinadangkes; ken 'Dagiti tattao a kaunget ni Yahweh iti agnanayon.''
Whereas Edom, may say, We are laid waste, but we will again build the desolate places, Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, They, may build, but, I, will pull down, — and men shall call them, The Boundary of Lawlessness, and, The people with whom Yahweh hath indignation unto times age-abiding;
5 Maimatanganto daytoy dagiti mismo a matayo, ket kunaenyonto, “Naindaklan ni Yahweh iti labes dagiti beddeng ti Israel.”
And, your own eyes, shall see, —and, ye yourselves, shall say, Yahweh, be magnified, beyond the boundary of Israel.
6 Raemen ti anak ti amana, ken raemen ti adipen ti amona. Ngarud, no maysaak nga ama, ayanna ti dayawko? Ken no maysaak nga amo, ayanna ti panagraem nga agpaay kaniak. Kasasaonakayo ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin amin, dakayo a papadi, a nangum-umsi iti naganko. Ngem kunaenyo, 'Kasanomi koma nga inumsi ti naganmo?'
A son, will honour a father, and, a servant, his lord, — If then, a father, I am, where is mine honour? And, if, a lord, I am, where is my reverence? saith Yahweh of hosts— to you, ye priests, who despise my Name, and yet say, Wherein have we despised thy Name?
7 Babaen iti panangidatonyo iti narugit a tinapay iti rabaw ti altarko. Ket kunaenyo, 'Kasano koma a rinugitandaka?' Iti panangibagayo iti dayta nalabit a naumsi ti lamisaan ni Yahweh.
In bringing near upon mine altar, polluted food, while yet ye say, Wherein have we polluted thee? Because ye say, As for the table of Yahweh, a thing to be despised, it is;
8 No mangisagutkayo kadagiti bulsek nga ayup a maidaton, saan kadi a dakes dayta? Ken no mangidatonkayo iti pilay ken masakit, saan kadi a dakes dayta? Isagutyo dayta iti gobernadoryo; awatennakayo ngata wenno pakitaannakayo ngata iti pabor?” kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin amin.
And when ye bring near the blind as a sacrifice, [saying] —No harm! or when ye bring near the lame or the sick [saying] —No harm! Offer it, I pray you, unto thy pasha, Will he accept thee? or lift up thy countenance? saith Yahweh of hosts.
9 Ket ita, agkiddawkayo iti pabor ti Dios, tapno paraburannatayokoma. “Babaen iti bukbukodyo a daton, awatenna ngata a siaayat ti siasinoman kadakayo?” kuna ni Yahweh a mannakabalin amin.
Now, therefore, pacify, I pray you, the face of GOD, that he may grant us favour, —at your hands, hath this come to pass, Will he lift up the countenances, of any of you? saith Yahweh of hosts.
10 “O, no adda la koma maysa kadakayo a mabalin a mangrikep kadagiti ruangan ti templo, tapno saan koma a masayang ti panangarunyo iti rabaw ti altarko! Saanak a maay-ayo kadakayo,” kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin amin, “ken saankonto nga awaten ti aniaman a daton manipud kadakayo.
Who is there, even among you, that will shut the doors, so as not to set light to mine altar, for nothing? I can take no pleasure in you, saith Yahweh of hosts, and, your present, can I not accept at your hand.
11 Ta manipud iti panagsingising ti init agingga a lumnek daytoy, maitan-okto ti naganko kadagiti nasion; iti tunggal disso, maidatonto dagiti insenso iti naganko, kasta met ti nadalus a daton. Ta agbalinto a naindaklan ti naganko kadagiti nasion,” kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin amin.
For, from the rising of the sun, even unto the going in thereof, great is my Name among the nations, and, in every place, incense, is offered to my Name, and a pure present, —for great is my Name among the nations, saith Yahweh of hosts.
12 Ngem saanyo a raraemen daytoy no ibagayo a narugitan ti lamisaan ti Apo, dagiti bunga ken taraon daytoy ket maumsi.
But ye are profaning me, — in that ye say, As for the table of the Lord, polluted it is, and, as for his produce, contemptible is his food.
13 Ibagbagayo pay, 'Makabannog unay daytoyen,' ken siuumsiyo nga ibang-es daytoy,” kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin amin. “Inyegyo ti nakimmeg dagiti atap nga ayup wenno pilay wenno masakit; ket inyegyo daytoy a kas datonyo! Rumbeng kadi nga awatek daytoy manipud kadakayo?” kuna ni Yahweh.
And ye have said, Lo! what a weariness! And ye have snuffed at Me, saith Yahweh of hosts, and have brought in the torn and the lame and the sick, thus have ye brought the present, — Could I accept it at your hand? saith Yahweh.
14 “Mailunod koma dagiti manangallilaw nga addaan iti kalakian nga ayup iti arbanna ken agsapsapata nga itedna daytoy kaniak, ngem nangidaton kaniak, nga Apo, iti adda pakapilawanna; ta Siak ti naindaklan nga Ari,” kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin amin, “ken pagbutbutngan ti naganko kadagiti nasion.”
But accursed is he that defraudeth, who, when there is in his flock a male, yet voweth and sacrificeth a corrupt thing to the Lord, for, a great king, am I, saith Yahweh of hosts, and, my Name, is revered among the nations.
