Jeremias 8

1 Iti dayta a tiempo— kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh— iruardanto manipud kadagiti tanem dagiti tulang dagiti ari ti Juda ken dagiti ofisialna, dagiti tulang dagiti papadi ken dagiti profeta, ken dagiti tulang dagiti agnanaed iti Jerusalem.

“In that time, says the Lord, they will cast out the bones of the kings of Judah, and the bones of its leaders, and the bones of the priests, and the bones of the prophets, and the bones of those who were living in Jerusalem, from their graves.

2 Ket iwaradanto dagitoy iti lawag ti init ken bulan ken kadagiti amin a bituen iti tangatang; dagitoy a banbanag iti tangatang a sinurot ken nagserbianda, a kinamkamatda ken binirokda, ken dinaydayawda. Saanto a maurnong wenno maitabon manen dagiti tulang. Kasladanto rugit iti rabaw ti daga.

And they will spread them out before the sun and the moon and the entire army of the heavens, which they have loved, and served, and followed, and which they have sought and adored. They will not be collected, and they will not be buried. They will be like manure upon the face of the earth.

3 Iti tunggal nabatbati a lugar a nangipanak kadakuada, piliendanto ti patay imbes a biag para kadagiti bagbagida, amin a nabati pay laeng manipud iti daytoy a dakes a nasion— kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin amin.

And they will greatly prefer death to life: all those who will have been left from this wicked kindred, in all the forsaken places to which I will cast them out, says the Lord of hosts.

4 Isu nga ibagam kadakuada, “Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh: Adda kadi siasinoman a matumba a saan a bumangon? Adda kadi siasinoman a maiyaw-awan a saan a mangikagumaan nga agsubli?

And you will say to them: Thus says the Lord: He who falls, will he not rise again? And he who has been turned away, will he not return?

5 Apay ta dagitoy a tattao iti Jerusalem, timmallikodda ket naglaylayunen ti panagbalinda a saan a napudno kaniak? Agtultuloyda iti panangallilaw ken saanda kayat nga agbabawi.

Then why have this people in Jerusalem turned away with a contentious loathing? They have taken hold of what is false, and they are not willing to return.

6 Sipapasnekak a dimngeg, ngem saanda a nagsao iti umno; awan ti uray maysa nga agbabawi iti kinadangkesna, awan iti agkuna, “Ania iti naaramidko?” Mapanda amin iti kayatda a papanan, a kasla maysa a kalakian a kabalio nga agdardaras a mapan iti gubatan.

I paid close attention and I listened carefully. No one is speaking what is good. There is no one who does penance for his sin, saying: ‘What have I done?’ They have all turned to their own course, like a horse rushing with fury into battle.

7 Uray ti kannaway idiay langit ket ammona ti umno a tiempo; ken dagiti kalapati, sallapingaw ken tipor. Umakarda met iti umno a tiempo, ngem dagiti tattaok, saanda nga ammo dagiti bilin ni Yahweh.

The hawk in the heavens has known her time. The turtledove, and the swallow, and the stork have kept the time of their arrival. But my people have not known the judgment of the Lord.

8 Apay a kunayo, “Nasiribkami! Ken adda kadakami ti linteg ni Yahweh”? Pudno, kitaenyo! Ti manangallilaw a pagsurat dagiti eskriba ket nangparnuay iti panangallilaw.

How can you say: ‘We are wise, and the law of the Lord is with us?’ Truly, the lying pen of the scribes has wrought falsehood.

9 Mabainanto dagiti masirib a lallaki. Nabainan ken napalab-oganda. Kitaenyo! laklaksidenda ti sao ni Yahweh, isu nga ania ti serbi ti kinasiribda?

The wise men have been confounded; they were terrified and captured. For they cast aside the word of the Lord, and there is no wisdom in them.

10 Isu nga itedkonto dagiti assawada iti sabali, ken dagiti talonda kadagiti mangtagikua kadagitoy, ta manipud iti kanunumoan agingga iti kapapatgan, aminda ket nakaro ti kinaagumda! Manipud iti profeta agingga iti padi, manangallilawda amin.

Because of this, I will give their wives to outsiders and their fields to others as an inheritance. For from the least, even to the greatest, they all pursue avarice; from the prophet, even to the priest, they all act with deceit.

11 Ta inagasanda ti sugat ti anak a babai dagiti tattaok a kasla awan aniamanna a banag. Kinunada, “Kappia, Kappia,” ngem awan ti kappia.

And they healed the destruction of the daughter of my people with disgrace, by saying: ‘Peace, peace,’ though there was no peace.

12 Nagbainda kadi idi nagaramidda kadagiti makarimon? Saanda a nagbain. Awan iti kinapakumbabada. Isu a matnagdanto iti tiempo ti pannakadusada, a kadua dagiti natnagen. Kanibusanandanto, kuna ni Yahweh.

They have been confounded because they committed abomination. Or rather, they have not been confounded with shame, for they do not know how to blush. For this reason, they will fall among the fallen. In the time of their visitation, they will fall, says the Lord.

13 Ikkatekto ida a naan-anay— kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh— awanto iti bunga ti ubas, awanto met iti bunga dagiti kayo nga igos. Ta malaylayto ti bulong, ken mapukawto ti intedko kadakuada.

When gathering, I will gather them together, says the Lord. There are no grapes on the vine, and there are no figs on the fig tree. The leaves have fallen. And I have given them the things that have passed away.”

14 Apay pay laeng nga agtugtugawtayo ditoy? Agkukuyogtayo, mapantayo kadagiti nasarikedkedan a siudad, ket agulimektayonto sadiay ta mataytayo. Ta pagulimekennatayonto ni Yahweh a Diostayo. Painomennatayonto iti sabidong, agsipud ta nagbasoltayo kenkuana.

“Why are we sitting still? Assemble, and let us enter the fortified city, and let us remain silent there. For the Lord our God has brought us to silence, and he has given us the water of gall as a drink. For we have sinned against the Lord.

15 Mangnamnamatayo iti kappia, ngem awanto a pulos iti nasayaat. Mangnamnamatayo iti tiempo ti pannakapaimbag, ngem kitaenyo, addanto panagbuteng.

We expected peace, but there was nothing good. We expected a time of health, and behold, dread.”

16 Ti banang-es dagiti kalakian a kabaliona ket nangngeg iti Dan. Aggungungon ti entero a daga iti panaggaraigi dagiti nabileg a kabaliona. Ta umayda ket dadaelenda ti daga ken ti kinabaknang daytoy, ti siudad ken dagiti agnanaed iti daytoy.

“From Dan, the snorting of his horses was heard; the entire land was shaken by the voice of the neighing of his fighters. And they arrived and devoured the land and its plenitude, the city and its inhabitants.

17 Ta kitaenyo, mangibaonak kadagiti uleg kadakayo, kadagiti karasaen a saanyo a mapaamo. Kagatendakayonto— kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.

For behold, I will send among you serpents, king snakes, against which there is no charm, and they will bite you, says the Lord.

18 Awan iti patinggana ti ladingitko, ken masaksaktan ti pusok.

My sorrow is beyond sorrow; my heart mourns within me.

19 Denggenyo, ti um-umkis a timek dagiti annak a babai dagiti tattaok manipud iti adayo a daga! Saan kadi nga adda ni Yahweh idiay Zion? Wenno saan kadi nga adda iti Zion ti arina? Apay ngarud a pinagpungtotdak gapu kadagiti imahen ken kadagiti awan serserbina a gangannaet a didiosen?

Behold, the voice of the daughter of my people from a far away land. Is the Lord not with Zion, and is her king not within her? Then why have they provoked me to wrath by their graven images, and by their strange vanities?

20 Naglabasen ti panagapit, nalpasen ti panawen iti kalgaw. Ngem saantayo a naisalakan.

The harvest has passed by, the summer is at an end, and we have not been saved.

21 Masakitanak gapu iti pannakapasakit ti anak a babai dagiti tattaok. Maladingitanak kadagiti nakaam-amak a banbanag a napasamak kenkuana; Maupayak.

Over the destruction of the daughter of my people, I am contrite and saddened; astonishment has taken hold of me.

22 Awan kadi iti agas idiay Galaad? Awan kadi iti mangngagas sadiay? Apay a saan a mapaimbag ti anak a babai dagiti tattaok?

Is there no balm in Gilead? Or is there no physician there? Then why has the wound of the daughter of my people not been closed?”
