< Isaiah 54 >

1 Sing for joy, childless woman, you who have had a baby! Shout aloud, and sing happily, Jerusalem, you who have never given birth! For the abandoned woman now has more children than the married woman, says the Lord.
Agkantaka, sika a lupes a babai; sika a saan a nagpasngay; agkantaka a sirarag-o ken agsangitka iti napigsa, sika a saan pay pulos a nagpasikal. Ta dagiti annak ti nabaybay-an a babai ket ad-adunto ngem kadagiti annak ti naasawaan a babai,” kuna ni Yahweh.
2 Make the tent where you live bigger; stretch the fabric to enlarge your home. Don't try and save space—extend your tent cords and make your tent pegs stronger.
Palawaem ti toldam ken iyukradmo dagiti kurtina ti toldam; paatidogem dagiti talim ken palagdaem dagiti pasokmo.
3 You're going to be spreading out right and left; your descendants will take over the land of other nations and live in towns that were once abandoned.
Ta maiyukradkanto iti makanawan ken iti makanigid, ken parmekento dagiti kaputotam dagiti nasion ken agnaeddanto manen kadagiti langalang a siudad.
4 Do not be afraid, for you won't be humiliated; don't be upset, for you won't be disgraced. You will forget about the shame of your youth, and you won't remember the embarrassment of your widowhood any longer.
Saanka nga agbuteng ta saankanton a mabainan, wenno maupay ta saankanto a maibabain; malipatamto ti pannakaibabain ti kinaagtutubom ken ti pannakaibabain ti pannakabaybay-am.
5 For your Maker is your husband, the Lord Almighty is his name the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer, he is called the God of the whole earth.
Ta ti Nangparsua kenka ket isu ti asawam; ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin ti naganna. Ti Nasantoan ti Israel ket isu ti Mannubotmo; maawagan isuna a Dios ti sangalubongan.
6 The Lord has called you to come back, like a wife who's been abandoned and deeply hurt, a wife who was married when she was young, only to be rejected, says your God.
Ta inayabannaka manen ni Yahweh kas asawa a nabaybay-an ken agladladingit iti espiritu, kas iti babai nga ubing a nakiasawa ken nailaksid, kuna ti Diosmo.
7 I deserted you for just a little while, but I will bring you back, showing you a great deal of kindness.
“Binaybay-anka iti apagbiit a tiempo, ngem babaen iti dakkel nga asi alaenkanto.
8 In a moment of anger I turned my face away from you, but now with trustworthy love I will always be kind to you, says the Lord, your Redeemer.
Iti nakaro a pungtotko inlingedko ti rupak kenka iti apagkanito; ngem babaen iti agnanayon a kinapudnok iti tulagko kaasiankanto-kuna ni Yahweh, a mangisalakan mo.
9 To me this is just like Noah's time, when I promised on oath that a flood would never cover the earth again. In the same way I promise on oath that I won't be angry with you or tell you off.
Ta daytoy ket kas kadagiti dandanum ni Noe kaniak: kas iti panangisapatak a saanen a layusen ti dandanum ni Noe ti daga, kasta met ti panangisapatak a saankanton nga ungtan wenno tubngaren.
10 Though the mountains cease to exist and the hills disappear, yet my trustworthy love for you won't cease to exist and my agreement of peace won't disappear, says the Lord, who shows you kindness.
Ta uray no matuang dagiti bantay ken magungon dagiti turod, ngem saanto a maisina kenka ti kinapudno ti tulagko, wenno saanto a magungon ti tulagko a pannakikappia- kuna ni Yahweh, a naasi kenka.
11 My poor storm-damaged city that can't be comforted! Look, I'm going to reset your stones in cement made of antimony, I will use sapphires to lay your foundations.
Sika a nagsagaba, a kasla pinarparigat iti bagyo ken saan a naliwliwa, kitaem, bangonekto manen ti siudadmo babaen kadagiti agkakapateg a batbato, ken ikabilkonto dagiti pundasionmo babaen iti bato a sapiro.
12 I will make your fortifications out of rubies; I will make your gates out of sparkling beryl. All your walls will be made of precious stones,
Aramidekto dagiti torrem babaen iti bato a rubi ken rumimrimat a batbato dagiti ruangam, ken napipintas a batbato dagiti akinruar a padermo.
13 and all your children will be students of the Lord, and they will live in complete peace.
Ket suruanto ni Yahweh dagiti amin nga annakmo; ket dakkelto ti talna dagiti annakmo.
14 Your society will operate from principles of goodness and right; nobody will be there to oppress you. You won't be afraid; you won't have to face any kind of terror.
Bangonenkanto manen iti kinalinteg. Saanmonto a pulos a mapadas ti pannakaidaddanes, ta saankanton a mabuteng, ken awanto iti nakabutbuteng nga umasideg kenka.
15 If any invader comes to attack you, I didn't send them; you will defeat anyone who attacks you.
Kitaem, no adda ti mangpataud iti riribuk, saanto daytoy a nagtaud kaniak; siasinoman a mangpataud iti riribuk kenka ket maparmekto.
16 Look—I have created a blacksmith who blows the coals into a hot flame and forges a suitable weapon; and I have created the destroyer who brings destruction.
Kitaem, pinarsuak ti mammanday, a mangpasged kadagiti beggang ket agpanday kadagiti armas a kas trabahona, ken pinarsuak ti manangdadael tapno mangdadael.
17 None of the weapons forged against you will succeed, and you will condemn anyone who accuses you. This is how the servants of the Lord are blessed, and I am the one who vindicates them, declares the Lord.
Awan ti naaramid nga armas nga agballigi a maibusor kenka; ket kedngamto iti pannakadusa ti siasinoman a mangakusar kenka. Daytoy ti tawid dagiti adipen ni Yahweh, ken ti pannangikalintegak kadakuada —kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.”
