< Isaiah 46 >

1 Bel is bowed down, Nebo bendeth; their idols are upon the beasts, and upon the cattle: the things ye carried are laid on, a burden to the weary [beast].
Agrukrukbab ni Bel, agdumdumog ni Nebo; aw-awiten dagiti ayup dagiti didiosenda. Dagitoy a didiosen nga aw-awitenda ket padagsen kadagiti nabannog nga ayup.
2 They bend, they are bowed down together; they could not deliver the burden, and themselves are gone into captivity.
Agrukob ken agparintumengda a sangsangkamaysa; saanda a maispal dagiti imahen, ken uray isuda a mismo ket maitalaw.
3 Hearken unto me, house of Jacob, and all the remnant of the house of Israel, ye who have been borne from the belly, who have been carried from the womb:
Dumngegka kaniak, balay ti Jacob, ken dakayo amin, a nabatbati iti balay ni Jacob, nga inay-aywanak sakbay pay a naipasngaykayo, naisikug iti aanakan:
4 Even to old age, I [am] HE, and unto hoary hairs I will carry [you]: It is I that have made, and I will bear, and I will carry, and will deliver.
Uray inton lumakaykayo, siak latta, ken uray no aguban dagiti bubuokyo aywanankayto. Pinarsuakayo, ken ipaayko dagiti kasapulanyo, itundakayo iti pakatalgedanyo.
5 To whom will ye liken me and make me equal, or compare me, that we may be like?
Siasino ti pangidiliganyo kaniak? Ken siasino ti kaas-aspingko, tapno mapagdinniligdakami?
6 — They lavish gold out of the bag, and weigh silver in the balance; they hire a goldsmith, and he maketh it a god: they fall down, yea, they worship.
Iburburais dagiti tattao ti balitok manipud iti pagkargaan ken mangtimbangda iti pirak. Mangtangdangda iti mammanday, ket aramidenna daytoy a didiosen; agruknoyda ken agdayawda iti daytoy.
7 They bear him on the shoulder, they carry him, and set him in his place; there he standeth, he doth not remove from his place: yea, one crieth unto him, and he answereth not; he saveth him not out of his trouble.
Ibaklayda daytoy; ikabilda iti lugar a pakaisaadanna, ket nakatakder latta daytoy iti disso a nakaikabilanna ken saan nga umakar daytoy manipud iti ayanna. Agasugda iti daytoy, ngem saan a makasungbat wenno makaisalakan iti siasinoman a mariribukan.
8 Remember this, and shew yourselves men; call it to mind, ye transgressors.
Amirisenyo dagitoy a banbanag; saanyo nga iyaleng-aleng dagitoy, dakayo a managsukir!
9 Remember the former things of old; for I [am] God, and there is none else; [I am] God, and there is none like me;
Amirisenyo dagiti immuna a banbanag, dagiti napalabas, ta siak ti Dios, ket awan sabali pay, Siak ti Dios, ket awan ti kas kaniak.
10 declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure;
Impakpakaammok ti panungpalan manipud idi punganay, ken imbagbagak ti saan pay a napasamak; kunak, “Mapasamakto dagiti panggepko, ken aramidek ti tarigagayko.”
11 calling a bird of prey from the east, the man of my counsel from a far country. Yea, I have spoken, I will also bring it to pass; I have purposed it, I will also do it.
Awagak ti tumatayab a tiltiliwen dagiti ayup manipud iti daya, ti tao a napilik manipud iti adayo a daga; wen, nasaokon; ipatungpalko met daytoy; adda panggepko, aramidek met daytoy.
12 Hearken unto me, ye stout-hearted, that are far from righteousness:
Dumngegkayo kaniak, dakayo a nasukir a tattao, dakayo a saan a mangar-aramid iti nalinteg.
13 I bring near my righteousness; it shall not be far off, and my salvation shall not delay; and I will give salvation in Zion, [and] unto Israel my glory.
Iyasidegko ti kinalintegko; saan nga adayo daytoy, ken saan nga aguray ti panangisalakanko; ket ipaayko ti pannakaisalakan iti Sion ken ti kinapintasko iti Israel.
