< Jeremias 7 >

1 Daytoy ti sao nga immay kenni Jeremias manipud kenni Yahweh,
The word that came to Jeremias from the Lord, saying:
2 “Agtakderka iti ruangan ti balay ni Yahweh ket iwaragawagmo daytoy a sao! Kunaem, 'Denggenyo ti sao ni Yahweh, dakayo amin iti Juda, dakayo a sumsumrek kadagitoy a ruangan tapno agdayaw kenni Yahweh.
Stand in the gate of the house of the Lord, and proclaim there this word, and say: Hear ye the word of the Lord, all ye men of Juda, that enter in at these gates, to adore the Lord.
3 Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin amin a Dios ti Israel: Aramidenyo a nasayaat dagiti wagas ken aramidyo, ket ipalubosko nga agtultuloykayo nga agnaed iti daytoy a lugar.
Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Make your ways and your doings good: and I will dwell with you in this place.
4 Saanyo nga italek ti bagiyo kadagiti makaallilaw a sasao a kunayo, “Templo ni Yahweh! Templo ni Yahweh! Templo ni Yahweh!”
Trust not in lying words, saying: The temple of the Lord, the temple of the Lord, it is the temple of the Lord.
5 Ta no naan-anay nga aramidenyo a nasayaat dagiti wagas ken aramidyo; no naan-anay nga ipatungpalyo ti hustisia iti nagbaetan ti maysa a tao ken iti kaarrubana—
For if you will order well your ways, and your doings: if you will execute judgement between a man and his neighbor,
6 no saanyo nga irurumen ti agnanaed iti daga, ti ulila, wenno ti balo, ken saankayo a mangpasayasay iti awan basolna a dara iti daytoy a disso, ken saankayo nga agdayaw kadagiti didiosen a pakaigappuan iti bukodyo a pakadangran—
If you opress not the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, and shed not innocent blood in this place, and walk not after strange gods to your own hurt,
7 ipaluboskonto nga agtalinaedkayo iti daytoy a lugar, iti daga nga intedko kadagiti kapuonanyo manipud pay idi un-unana ken iti agnanayon.
I will dwell with you in this place: in the land, which I gave to your fathers from the beginning and for evermore.
8 Kitaenyo! Agtaltalekkayo kadagiti makaallilaw a sasao a saan a makatulong kadakayo.
Behold you put your trust in lying words, which shall not profit you:
9 Saan kadi nga agtaktakawkayo, mangpapatay ken makikamalala? Ken saan kadi a sapsapataanyo ti inuulbod ken agidatdatonkayo iti insenso kenni Baal ken agdaydayawkayo kadagiti didiosen a saanyo nga am-ammo?
To steal, to murder, to commit adultery, to swear falsely, to offer to Baalim, and to go after strange gods, which you know not.
10 Ket umaykayo agtakder iti sangoanak iti daytoy a balay a nakaiwaragawagan ti naganko ket kunayo, “Awan iti pakaan-anoantayo,” iti kasta ket maaramidyo amin dagitoy a makarimon?
And you have come, and stood before me in this house, in which my name is called upon, and have said: We are delivered, because we have done all these abominations.
11 Daytoy kadi a balay a nakanagan iti naganko ket maysa a rukib dagiti agtatakaw kadagiti matayo? Ngem dumngegkayo, nakitak daytoy— kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.'
Is this house then, in which my name hath been called upon, in your eyes become a den of robbers? I, I am he: I have seen it, saith the Lord.
12 Isu a mapankayo iti lugarko nga adda idiay Silo, nga impalubosko a pagtalinaedan iti naganko sipud pay idi un-unana, ket kitaenyo ti inaramidko iti daytoy gapu iti kinadangkes dagiti tattaok nga Israel.
Go ye to my place in Silo, where my name dwelt from the beginning: and see what I did to it for the wickedness of my people Israel:
13 Isu nga ita, gapu ta inar-aramidyo amin dagitoy nga aramid— kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh— nagsaoak kadakayo iti namin-adu, ngem saankayo a dimngeg. Inawagankayo, ngem saankayo a simmungbat.
And now, because you have done all these works, saith the Lord: and I have spoken to you rising up early, and speaking, and you have not heard: and I have called you, and you have not answered:
14 Isu a no ania ti inaramidko idiay Silo, aramidekto met iti daytoy a balay a naawagan iti naganko, ti balay a nagtalkanyo, daytoy a disso nga intedko kadakayo ken kadagiti kapuonanyo.
I will do to this house, in which my name is called upon, and in which you trust, and to the places which I have given you and your fathers, as I did to Silo.
15 Ta papanawenkayonto iti sangoanak, a kas iti panangpapanawko kadagiti amin a kakabsatyo, a dagiti amin a kaputotan ni Efraim.'
And I will cast you away from before my face, as I have cast away all your brethren, the whole seed of Ephraim.
16 Ket sika, Jeremias, saanmo nga ikararagan dagitoy a tattao, ken saanka a agdung-aw wenno agkararag para kadakuada, ken saanmo ida nga ibabaet, ta saanakto a dumngeg kenka.
Therefore, do not thou pray for this people, nor take to thee praise and supplication for them: and do not withstand me: for I will not hear thee.
17 Saanmo kadi a makita ti ar-aramidenda kadagiti siudad ti Juda ken kadagiti kalsada iti Jerusalem?
Seest thou not what they do in the cities of Juda, and in the streets of Jerusalem?
18 Agur-urnong dagiti annak iti kayo ken paspasgedan dagiti amma ti apuy! Agmasmasa dagiti babbai iti arina tapno agaramid iti tinapay para iti reyna dagiti langit ken agibukbukbokda kadagiti daton a mainom para kadagiti didiosen tapno rurodendak.
The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire and the women knead the dough, to make cakes to the queen of heaven, and to offer libations to strange gods, and to provoke me to anger.
19 Pudno kadi a rurrurodendak? — kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh— saan kadi a dagiti bagbagida ti rurrurodenda, isu nga isuda metlaeng ti manglaklak-am iti pannakaibabain?
Do they provoke me to anger, saith the Lord? Is it not themselves, to the confusion of their contenance?
20 Isu a kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh nga Apo, 'Kitaenyo, pumsuakto ti unget ken pungtotko iti daytoy a lugar, iti tao ken kadagiti ayup, iti kayo kadagiti tay-ak ken ti bunga iti daga. Mapuoranto daytoy ket saanto a pulos a maiddep.'
Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Behold my wrath and my indignation was enkindled against this place, upon men and upon beasts, and upon the trees of the field, and upon the fruits of the land, and it shall burn, and shall not be quenched.
21 Kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin amin a Dios ti Israel, 'Inayonyo dagiti datonyo a maipuor amin kadagiti sagutyo ken ti karne manipud kadagitoy.
Thus saith the Lord of hosts the God of Israel: Add your burnt offerings to your sacrifices, and eat ye the flesh.
22 Ta idi inruarko dagiti kapuonanyo manipud iti daga ti Egipto, saanak a nagsapul iti aniaman a banag manipud kadakuada. Awan imbilinko maipanggep iti daton a maipuor amin ken kadagiti sakripisio.
For I spoke not to your fathers, and I commanded them not, in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, concerning the matter of burnt offerings and sacrifices.
23 Kastoy laeng ti imbilinko kadakuada, “Dumngegkayo iti timekko ket Siakto iti Diosyo ken dakayonto dagiti tattaok. Isu a magnakayo iti amin a wagas nga ibilbilinko kadakayo, tapno nasayaat ti pagbanaganyo.”
But this thing I commanded them, saying: Hearken to my voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be my people: and walk ye in all the way that I have commanded you, that it may be well with you.
24 Ngem saanda a dimngeg wenno nangipangag. Nagbiagda a segun kadagiti bukod a panggep dagiti nadangkes a pusoda, isu a nagsanudda, saanda a nagtuloy.
But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear: but walked in their own will, and in the perversity of their wicked heart: and went backward and not forward,
25 Manipud iti aldaw a rimmuar dagiti kapuonanyo iti daga ti Egipto agingga iti daytoy nga aldaw, imbaonko ti tunggal maysa kadagiti adipenko, dagiti profetak, kadakayo. Saanak a nagsardeng a nangiibaon kadakuada.
From the day that their fathers came out of the land of Egypt, even to this day. And I have sent to you all my servants the prophets from day to day, rising up early and sending.
26 Ngem saanda a dimngeg kaniak. Saanda a nangipangag. Ngem ketdi, pinatangkenda dagiti uloda. Nadangdangkesda ngem dagiti kapuonanda.'
And they have not hearkened to me: nor inclined their ear: but have hardened their neck, and have done worse than their fathers.
27 Isu nga iwaragawagmo amin dagitoy a sasao kadakuada, ngem saandanto a dumngeg kenka. Iwaragawagmo dagitoy a banbanag kadakuada, ngem saandakanto a sungbatan.
And thou shalt speak to them all these words, but they will not hearken to thee: and thou shalt call them, but they will not answer thee.
28 Ibagam kadakuada, 'Daytoy ket maysa a nasion a saan a dumngeg iti timek ni Yahweh a Diosna ken saanna a kayat iti agpaiwanwan. Nadadael ti kinapudno ken naikkat manipud kadagiti ngiwatda.
And thou shalt say to them: This is a nation which hath not hearkened to the voice of the Lord their God, nor received instruction: Faith is lost, and is carried away out of their mouth.
29 Pukisam ti buokmo ken kuskusam ti bagim, ket ibellengmo ti buokmo. Agkantaka iti pangdung-aw a kanta kadagiti nawaya a lugar. Ta linaksid ken tinallikudanen ni Yahweh daytoy a henerasion gapu iti pungtotna.
Cut off thy hair, and cast it away: and take up a lamentation on high: for the Lord hath rejected and forsaken the generation of his wrath,
30 Ta nakaaramid iti dakes dagiti annak ti Juda iti imatangko— daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh-nangikabilda kadagiti makarimon a banbanag iti balay a nakaiwaragawagan iti naganko, tapno matulawan daytoy.
Because the children of Juda have done evil in my eyes, saith the Lord. They have set their abominations in the house in which my name is called upon, to pollute it;
31 Ket binangonda ti altar ti Tofet nga adda iti tanap ti Ben Hinnom. Inaramidda daytoy a pangpuoranda kadagiti annakda a lallaki ken babbai— maysa a banag a saanko nga imbilin. Saanko a pulos a pinanunot daytoy.
And they have built the high places of Topeth, which is in the valley of the son of Ennom, to burn their sons, and their daughters in the fire: which I commanded not, nor thought on in my heart.
32 Isu a kitaenyo, umadanin dagiti aldaw— kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh— inton saanen a maawagan daytoy iti Tofet wenno tanap ti Ben Hinnom. Agbalinto daytoy a tanap ti Pannakapapatay; agitabondanto kadagiti bangkay idiay Tofet agingga nga awan iti mabati a pagitabonan.
Therefore behold the days shall come, saith the Lord, and it shall no more be called Topeth, nor the valley of the son of Ennom: but the valley of slaughter, and they shall bury in Topeth, because there is no place.
33 Dagiti bangkay dagitoy a tattao ket agbalinto a taraon dagiti billit kadagiti tangatang ken dagiti ayup iti daga ket awanto a pulos iti mangabug kadagitoy.
And the carcasses of this people shall be meat for the fowls of the air, and for the beasts of the earth, and there shall be non to drive them away.
34 Pasardengekto kadagiti siudad ti Juda ken kadagiti kalsada ti Jerusalem, dagiti uni ti panagrag-o ken panagragsak, dagiti uni ti nobio ken ti nobia; agsipud ta agbalinto a langalang ti daga.”
And I will cause to cease out of the cities of Juda, and out of the streets of Jerusalem, the voice of joy, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride: for the land shall be desolate.
