Isaias 6
1 Noong taong mamatay ang haring Uzzias ay nakita ko ang Panginoon na nakaupo sa isang luklukan, matayog at mataas; at pinuno ang templo ng kaniyang kaluwalhatian.
During the year that King Uzziah died, [Yahweh showed me a vision. In the vision], I saw Yahweh sitting on a throne, high above everyone. He [was wearing a very long] robe that covered [the floor of] the temple.
2 Sa itaas niya ay nangakatayo ang mga serapin: bawa't isa'y may anim na pakpak: na may dalawa na nagsisitakip ng kaniyang mukha, at may dalawa na nagsisitakip ng kaniyang mga paa, at may dalawa na naglilipad sa kaniya.
Above him were standing [several] winged creatures. Each of them had six wings. They covered their faces with two of their wings, they covered their feet with two of their wings, and they flew using two of their wings.
3 At nagsisigawang isa't isa, at nagsasabi, Banal, banal, banal ang Panginoon ng mga hukbo: ang buong lupa ay napuno ng kaniyang kaluwalhatian.
They were calling to each other, saying, “The Commander of the armies of angels is holy; he is completely holy! The entire earth is filled with his glory.”
4 At ang mga patibayan ng mga pintuan ay nakilos sa tinig ng sumisigaw, at ang bahay ay napuno ng usok.
When they spoke, it caused the doorposts of the temple to shake, and the temple was filled with smoke.
5 Nang magkagayo'y sinabi ko, Sa aba ko! sapagka't ako'y napahamak; sapagka't ako'y lalaking may maruming mga labi, at ako'y tumatahan sa gitna ng bayan na may maruming mga labi: sapagka't nakita ng aking mga mata ang Hari, ang Panginoon ng mga hukbo.
Then I said, “Terrible things will happen to me, because everything that I say [MTY] is sinful, and I live among people who constantly say [MTY] sinful things. I will be destroyed because I have seen the Commander of the armies of angels!”
6 Nang magkagayo'y nilipad ako ng isa sa mga serapin, na may baga sa kaniyang kamay, na kaniyang kinuha ng mga pangipit mula sa dambana:
Then one of the winged creatures took a hot coal from the altar, using a pair of tongs. He flew to me
7 At hinipo niya niyaon ang aking bibig, at nagsabi, Narito, hinipo nito ang iyong mga labi; at ang iyong kasamaan ay naalis, at ang iyong kasalanan ay naalis.
and touched my lips with the coal. Then he said, “Look [at what I have done]. I have touched your lips [with this coal]. [Now] your guilt is ended, and your sins are forgiven [DOU].”
8 At narinig ko ang tinig ng Panginoon, na nagsasabi, Sinong susuguin ko, at sinong yayaon sa ganang amin? Nang magkagayo'y sinabi ko: Narito ako; suguin mo ako.
Then I heard Yahweh asking, “Whom shall I send [to be a messenger to my people]? Who will go [and speak] for us?” I replied, “I will. Send me!”
9 At sinabi niya, Ikaw ay yumaon, at saysayin mo sa bayang ito, inyong naririnig nga, nguni't hindi ninyo nauunawa; at nakikita nga ninyo, nguni't hindi ninyo namamalas.
Then he said, “[Okay], go, and say to the [Israeli] people, ‘You will listen carefully [to what I say], but you will not understand it. You will look very carefully [at the things that I am doing], but you will not understand them.’
10 Patabain mo ang puso ng bayang ito, at iyong pabigatin ang kanilang mga pakinig, at iyong ipikit ang kanilang mga mata; baka sila'y mangakakita ng kanilang mga mata; at mangakarinig ng kanilang mga pakinig, at mangakaunawa ng kanilang puso, at mangagbalik loob, at magsigaling.
[What you(sg) say will] cause these people to become stubborn [IDM]; [it will cause them] to not be able to hear [what I say] and see [what I do]. [As a result, they will not] see [what I want them to see] or hear [what I want them to hear], and they will not understand it, and they will not turn to me and be saved [from being punished].”
11 Nang magkagayo'y sinabi ko, Panginoon, hanggang kailan? At siya'y sumagot, Hanggang sa ang mga bayan ay mangagiba na walang tumahan, at ang mga bahay ay mangawalan ng tao, at ang lupain ay maging lubos na giba,
Then I said, “How long [do you want me to continue to do that]?” He replied, “[Do it] until their cities are ruined [by their enemies], [until] no one is living in their houses, [do it until] all the crops are stolen from their fields and the fields are ruined.
12 At ilayo ng Panginoon ang mga tao, at ang mga nilimot na dako ay magsidami sa gitna ng lupain.
[Do it] until I have (exiled everyone/forced everyone to go to their enemies’ lands) far away, and the whole land [of Israel] is deserted.
13 At kung magkaroon ng ikasangpung bahagi roon, mapupugnaw uli: gaya ng isang roble, at gaya ng isang encina, na ang puno ay naiiwan, pagka pinuputol; gayon ang banal na lahi ay siyang puno niyaon.
If [even] one tenth [of the people survive and] stay there, [their enemies] will [invade the land again and] burn everything. [But, just] like [MET] when an oak [tree] is cut down, a stump is left [from which new shoots will grow], the people who remain [in this land will be a group that will become large again] and be (set apart for/dedicated to) me.”
