Ezekiel 17
1 Immay kaniak ti sao ni Yahweh a kunana,
And the worde of the Lord came vnto mee, saying,
2 “Anak ti tao, mangtedka iti maysa burburtia ket ibagam daytoy a pangngarig iti balay ti Israel.
Sonne of man, put foorth a parable and speake a prouerbe vnto the house of Israel,
3 Ibagam, 'Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh nga Apo: Adda maysa a dakkel nga agila a dadakkel dagiti payakna ken atitiddog dagiti pawisna, napuskol dagiti dutdotna, ken agduduma ti marisna ti napan idiay Lebanon ket nagdisso iti murdong ti kayo a sedro.
And say, Thus saith the Lord God, The great eagle with great wings, and long wings, and ful of fethers, which had diuers colours, came vnto Lebanon, and tooke the highest branch of the cedar,
4 Nangtukkol daytoy kadagiti murdong dagiti sanga ket impanna dagitoy idiay daga ti Canaan; inmulana dagitoy iti siudad dagiti agtagtagilako.
And brake off the toppe of his twigge, and caried it into the land of marchants, and set it in a citie of marchants.
5 Nangala met daytoy iti sumagmamano a bukel iti daga ket inmulana iti daga a nakasaganan a mamulaan. Inmulana daytoy iti abay ti nalawa a pagayusan ti danum a kas iti pakaimulaan ti kimmawayan a kayo.
Hee tooke also of the seede of the lande, and planted it in a fruitfull ground: hee placed it by great waters, and set it as a willowe tree.
6 Kalpasanna, nagtubo daytoy ket nagbalin nga ubas a nagdalapdap iti daga. Nagturong iti ayan ti agila dagiti sangana, ket immuneg dagiti ramutna iti daga. Isu a nagbalin daytoy nga ubas, ket nangpataud iti adu sangsanga ken adu a saringit.
And it budded vp, and was like a spreading vine of low stature, whose branches turned toward it, and the rootes thereof were vnder it: so it became a vine, and it brought foorth branches, and shot foorth buds.
7 Ngem adda sabali pay a dakkel nga agila nga addaan kadagiti dadakkel a payak ken napupuskol a dutdot. Ket pagammoan! Inturong daytoy nga ubas dagiti ramutna iti ayan ti agila, ket manipud iti nakaimulaan ti ubas, inyunnatna dagiti sangana iti ayan ti agila tapno masibugan daytoy.
There was also another great eagle with great wings and many feathers, and beholde, this vine did turne her rootes toward it, and spred foorth her branches toward it, that she might water it by the trenches of her plantation.
8 Naimula daytoy iti nadam-eg a daga iti abay ti nalawa a pagayusan ti danum tapno makapagsanga ken makapagbunga daytoy, tapno agbalin a napintas unay nga ubas!
It was planted in a good soyle by great waters, that it should bring forth branches, and beare fruite, and be an excellent vine.
9 Ibagam kadagiti tattao, 'Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh nga Apo: Agbiag kadi daytoy? Saannanto kadi a paruten daytoy ken saanna kadi a rurosen dagiti bungana iti kasta magango dagiti nalangto a bulongna? Saan a kasapulan ti napigsa a takkiag wenno adu a tattao tapno maparut daytoy.
Say thou, Thus saith the Lord God, Shall it prosper? shall he not pull vp the rootes thereof, and destroy the fruite thereof, and cause them to drie? all the leaues of her bud shall wither without great power, or many people, to plucke it vp by the rootes thereof.
10 Isu a kitaem! Dumakkelto kadi daytoy kalpasan a naimula? Saanto kadi a magango daytoy inton pul-oyan ti angin nga agtaud iti daya? Naan-anay a magangonto daytoy iti nakaimulaanna.'”
Beholde, it was planted: but shall it prosper? shall it not be dried vp, and wither? when the East winde shall touch it, it shall wither in the trenches, where it grewe.
11 Kalpasanna, immay kaniak ti sao ni Yahweh a kunana,
Moreouer, the worde of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
12 “Kasaritam dagiti nasukir a tattao, 'Saanyo kadi nga ammo ti kaipapanan dagitoy a banbanag? Denggenyo! Immay iti Jerusalem ti ari ti Babilonia ket innalana ti ari ken dagiti prinsipena ket inkuyogna ida nga impan iti Babilonia.
Say now to this rebellious house, Know ye not, what these things meane? tell them, Behold, the King of Babel is come to Ierusalem, and hath taken the King thereof, and the princes thereof, and led them with him to Babel,
13 Kalpasanna, nangala iti maysa kadagiti kaputotan ti ari, nakitulag isuna kenkuana ket pinagsapatana isuna. Ket impanawna dagiti nabibileg a tattao iti daga,
And hath taken one of the Kings seede, and made a couenant with him, and hath taken an othe of him: he hath also taken the princes of the land,
14 tapno pumanglaw ti pagarian ket saan daytoy a tumangsit. Babaen iti panangtungpalna iti tulagna, makalasatto ti daga.
That the kingdome might be in subiection, and not lift it selfe vp, but keepe their couenant, and stand to it.
15 Ngem bimmusor kenkuana ti ari ti Jerusalem babaen iti panangibaonna kadagiti opisialna idiay Egipto, tapno mapanda agkiddaw kadagiti kabalio ken armada. Agballigi kadi isuna? Makalibas kadi ti mangar-aramid kadagitoy a banbanag? No saanna a tungpalen ti tulag, makalibas kadi isuna?
But he rebelled against him, and sent his ambassadours into Egypt, that they might giue him horses, and much people: shall hee prosper? shall he escape, that doeth such things? or shall he breake the couenant, and be deliuered?
16 Iti naganko! — kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh Apo— awan duadua a matayto isuna iti daga ti ari a nangisaad kenkuana a kas ari, ti ari nga akin-sapata iti inumsina, ken ti akin-tulag iti saanna a tinungpal. Matayto isuna iti tengnga ti Babilonia!
As I liue, saith the Lord God, he shall die in the middes of Babel, in the place of the King, that had made him King, whose othe he despised, and whose couenant made with him, he brake.
17 Ket ti Faraon ken dagiti agkakapigsa nga armadana ken ti naummo-ummong nga adu a lallaki a mannakigubat, saandanto a salakniban isuna iti gubatan, inton agigabsuon ken agipatakder dagiti taga-Babilonia kadagiti banag ket makaulida iti pader a mangdadael iti adu a biag.
Neither shall Pharaoh with his mightie hoste, and great multitude of people, mainteine him in the warre, when they haue cast vp mounts, and builded ramparts to destroy many persons.
18 Ta inumsi ti ari ti sapatana babaen iti saanna a panangtungpal iti tulag. Pudno nga intayagna ti imana tapno agkari, ngem naaramidna amin dagitoy a banag. Saanto isuna a makalibas.
For he hath despised the othe, and broken ye couenant (yet lo, he had giuen his hand) because he hath done all these things, he shall not escape.
19 Ngarud— kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh nga Apo — iti naganko, saan kadi a ti sapatak ti inumsina, ken ti tulagko ti saanna a tinungpal? Isu nga iyegkonto kenkuana ti pannusa!
Therefore, thus sayth the Lord God, As I liue, I wil surely bring mine othe that he hath despised, and my couenant that he hath broken vpon his owne head.
20 Isarwagkonto kenkuana ti iketko ket matiliwto isuna babaen iti iketko. Ket ipankonto isuna idiay Babilonia ket ukomekto isuna sadiay gapu iti kinatraidor nga inaramidna idi liniputannak!
And I wil spread my net vpon him, and he shalbe taken in my net, and I wil bring him to Babel, and will enter into iudgement with him there for his trespas that he hath committed against me.
21 Ket amin dagiti nakalasat iti armadana, mapasagto babaen iti kampilan, ket dagiti mabati, maiwarawaradanto iti amin a paset. Kalpasanna, maammoanyonto a siak ni Yahweh; Impakaammok daytoy a mapasamakto!'
And all that flee from him with all his hoste, shall fall by the sword, and they that remaine, shalbe scattered towarde all the windes: and ye shall know that I the Lord haue spoken it.
22 Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh nga Apo, 'Isu a siakto a mismo ti mangputed iti murdong ti kayo a sedro, ket imulakto daytoy iti adayo manipud iti naganus a saringitna. Tukkolekto daytoy, ket siakto a mismo ti mangimula iti daytoy iti nangato a bantay!
Thus saith the Lord God, I wil also take off the top of this hie cedar, and wil set it, and cut off the top of the tender plant thereof, and I wil plant it vpon an hie mountaine and great.
23 Imulakto daytoy kadagiti bantay ti Israel tapno agsanga ken agbunga, ket agbalinto a narukbos a sedro, iti kasta, amin a billit ket agnaeddanto iti daytoy. Agumokdanto kadagiti sangana.
Euen in the hie mountaine of Israel will I plant it: and it shall bring forth boughes and beare fruite, and be an excellent cedar, and vnder it shall remaine all birds, and euery foule shall dwell in the shadow of the branches thereof.
24 Kalpasanna, amin dagiti kaykayo iti tay-ak, maammoanda a siak ni Yahweh; Pukanekto dagiti natatayag a kaykayo; Padakkelekto dagiti nababa a kaykayo! Pagangoekto dagiti masibsibugan a kayo; Palangtoekto dagiti nagango a kayo! Siak ni Yahweh; Ipakaammok a mapasamakto daytoy, ket inaramidkon daytoy!'”
And all the trees of the fielde shall knowe that I the Lord haue brought downe the hie tree, and exalted the lowe tree, that I haue dried vp the greene tree, and made the drie tree to florish: I the Lord haue spoken it, and haue done it.
