Isaias 63
1 Sino itong dumarating mula sa Bozra, nasa Edom, na nakadamit na pula? Sino siyang naka maharlikang kasuotan, nagmamartsa nang may katiyakan dahil sa kanyang dakilang kalakasan? Ako ito na nagsasalita ng katuwiran at may makapangyarihang kakayanan magligtas.
Who is this who comes from Edom, with blood-red robes from Bozrah? he whose clothing is fair, stepping with pride in his great strength? I whose glory is in the right, strong for salvation.
2 Bakit pula ang suot mo na mukhang nagpipisa ka ng mga ubas sa pigaan nito?
Why is your clothing red, and why are your robes like those of one who is crushing the grapes?
3 Mag-isa kong tinapakan ang mga ubas sa pigaan, at walang sinuman mula sa mga bansa ang sumama sa akin. Tinapakan ko sila sa aking poot at dinurog ko sila sa aking matinding galit. Tumilamsik ang kanilang dugo at minantsahan ang lahat ng aking kasuotan.
I have been crushing the grapes by myself, and of the peoples there was no man with me: in my wrath and in my passion, they were crushed under my feet; and my robes are marked with their life-blood, and all my clothing is red.
4 Dahil inaasam-asam ko ang araw ng paghihiganti, at dumating na ang taon para sa aking pagtubos.
For the day of punishment is in my heart, and the year for the payment of the price for my people has come.
5 Naghanap ako pero walang sinuman ang makakatulong. Nagtaka ako na walang makakatulong, pero ang aking sariling bisig ang nagdala sa akin sa katagumpayan at pinalakas ako ng aking matinding galit.
And I saw that there was no helper, and I was wondering that no one gave them support: so my arm did the work of salvation, and my wrath was my support.
6 Sa aking galit dinurog ko ang mga mamamayan at sa aking poot nilasing ko sila, at isinaboy ko ang kanilang dugo sa lupa.
And in my passion the peoples were crushed under my feet, and broken in my wrath, and I put down their strength to the earth.
7 Sasabihin ko ang mga gawa ng katapatan sa tipan ni Yahweh, ang mga kapuri-puring mga ginawa niya para sa atin at ang kanyang dakilang kabutihan sa bayan ng Israel. Ang kahabagang ito ay naipakita niya sa atin dahil sa kanyang awa at sa maraming mga gawa ng katapatan sa tipan.
I will give news of the mercies of the Lord, and his great acts, even all the things the Lord has done for us, in his great grace to the house of Israel; even all he has done for us in his unnumbered mercies.
8 Dahil sinabi niya, “Tiyak na sila ang aking bayan, mga anak na hindi taksil.” Siya ay kanilang naging Tagapagligtas.
For he said, Truly they are my people, children who will not be false: so he was their saviour out of all their trouble.
9 Nagdusa rin siya sa lahat ng kanilang pagdurusa at ang anghel mula sa kanyang presensya ang nagligtas sa kanila. Sa kanyang pag-ibig at habag sila ay kanyang iniligtas, sila ay kanyang itinaas at iningatan sa buong sinaunang panahon.
It was no sent one or angel, but he himself who was their saviour: in his love and in his pity he took up their cause, and he took them in his arms, caring for them all through the years.
10 Pero sila ay nagrebelde at pinighati ang kanyang Banal na Espiritu. Kaya siya ay naging kaaway nila at nakipaglaban sa kanila.
But they went against him, causing grief to his holy spirit: so he was turned against them, and made war on them.
11 Naalala ng kanyang bayan ang tungkol sa sinaunang panahon ni Moises. Sinabi nila, “Nasaan ang Diyos, na naglabas sa kanila sa dagat kasama ang mga pastol ng kanyang kawan? Nasaan ang Diyos na naglagay sa kanila ng kanyang Banal na Espiritu?
Then the early days came to their minds, the days of Moses his servant: and they said, Where is he who made the keeper of his flock come up from the sea? where is he who put his holy spirit among them,
12 Nasaan ang Diyos, na naglagay ng kanyang dakilang kapangyarihan sa kanang kamay ni Moises, at hinawi ang tubig ng dagat sa kanilang harapan para gumawa ng walang hanggang pangalan para sa kanyang sarili?
He who made the arm of his glory go at the right hand of Moses, by whom the waters were parted before them, to make himself an eternal name;
13 Nasaan ang Diyos na pinangunahan sila sa pagtawid sa malalim na dagat? Tulad ng isang kabayo na tumatakbo sa patag na lupa, sila ay hindi nadapa.
He who made them go through the deep waters, like a horse in the waste land?
14 Gaya ng baka na bumababa papunta sa lambak, ganun din sila binigyan ng kapahingahan ng Espiritu ni Yahweh. Kaya ginabayan mo ang iyong bayan para sa kapurihan ng iyong sariling pangalan.
Like the cattle which go down into the valley, they went without falling, the spirit of the Lord guiding them: so you went before your people, to make yourself a great name.
15 Tumingin ka mula sa langit at magbigay pansin mula sa iyong banal at maluwalhating tahanan. Nasaan ang iyong kasigasigan at makapangyarihang mga gawa? Ipinagkait sa amin ang iyong awa at habag.
Let your eyes be looking down from heaven, from your holy and beautiful house: where is your deep feeling, the working of your power? do not keep back the moving of your pity and your mercies:
16 Dahil ikaw ay aming ama, kahit hindi kami kilala ni Abraham at hindi kinikilala ng Israel, ikaw, Yahweh, ang aming ama. 'Aming Manunubos' ang naging pangalan mo mula pa noong sinaunang panahon.
For you are our father, though Abraham has no knowledge of us, and Israel gives no thought to us: you, O Lord, are our father; from the earliest days you have taken up our cause.
17 Yahweh, bakit mo kami hinayaang maligaw mula sa iyong mga landas at tumigas ang aming mga puso kaya hindi ka na namin sinusunod? Bumalik ka para sa kapakanan ng iyong mga lingkod, ang mga lipi ng iyong pamana.
O Lord, why do you send us wandering from your ways, making our hearts hard, so that we have no fear of you? Come back, because of your servants, the tribes of your heritage.
18 Ang bayan mo ang nagmay-ari ng iyong banal na lugar sa maiksing panahon, pero pagkatapos niyurakan ito ng aming mga kaaway.
Why have evil men gone over your holy place, so that it has been crushed under the feet of our haters?
19 Kami ay naging tulad ng mga hindi mo kailanman pinamahalaan at tinawag sa pamamagitan ng iyong pangalan.”
We have become as those who were never ruled by you, on whom your name was not named.
