< Isaiah 17 >

1 The burden of Damascus: "Look, Damascus is taken away from being a city, and it will be a ruinous heap.
Ti pakaammo maipanggep iti Damasco. Awanen, saanton a maibilang a maysa a siudad ti Damasco; agbalinto daytoy a gabsuon dagiti dadael.
2 Her cities will be abandoned forever. They will be for flocks, which shall lie down, and none shall make them afraid.
Mapanawanto dagiti siudad ti Aroer. Agbalindanto a paginanaan dagiti arban ket awanto iti pakaigapuan ti panagbutengda.
3 The fortress shall cease from Ephraim, and the kingdom from Damascus, and the remnant of Aram. They will be as the glory of the children of Israel," says the LORD of hosts.
Mapukawto dagiti natalged a siudad manipud iti Efraim, ti pagarian manipud iti Damasco ken dagiti nabatbati iti Aram- agbalindanto a kas iti dayag dagiti tattao ti Israel- daytoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin.
4 "It will happen in that day that the glory of Jacob will be made thin, and the fatness of his flesh will become lean.
Mapasamakto iti dayta nga aldaw a kumapuy ti dayag ni Jacob ken ti kinalukmeg ti lasagna ket kumuttongto.
5 It will be like when the harvester gathers the wheat, and his arm reaps the grain. Yes, it will be like when one gleans grain in the Valley of Rephaim.
Maiyarigto daytoy iti talon no kasta nga apiten ti agan-ani ti sitatakder a trigo ken apiten ti takiagna dagiti dawa ti trigo. Maiyarigto daytoy iti talon no kasta nga agtudtod ti maysa a tao kadagiti dawa ti trigo iti tanap ti Refaim.
6 Yet gleanings will be left there, like the shaking of an olive tree, two or three olives in the top of the uppermost bough, four or five in the outermost branches of a fruitful tree," says the LORD, the God of Israel.
Mabatinto dagiti natudtod, uray kaskasano, a kas iti mapasamak no magungon ti kayo ti olibo: dua wenno tallo nga olibo iti ringgawis ti kangatoan a sanga, uppat wenno lima ti mabati iti kangatoan a sanga iti nabunga a kayo- daytoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh, a Dios ti Israel.
7 In that day, people will look to their Maker, and their eyes will have respect for the Holy One of Israel.
Iti dayta nga aldaw, kumitanto dagiti tattao iti Namarsua kadakuada, ket kumitadanto iti Nasantoan ti Israel.
8 They will not look to the altars, the work of their hands; neither shall they respect that which their fingers have made, either the Asherim, or the incense altars.
Saandanto a kumita kadagiti altar, nga inaramid dagiti imada, kasta met a saandanto a kumita iti inaramid dagiti ramayda, dagiti poste nga imahen ni Asera wenno dagiti imahen ti init.
9 In that day, their strong cities will be like the forsaken places of the Hivites and the Amorites, which were forsaken from before the children of Israel; and it will be a desolation.
Iti dayta nga aldaw, dagiti nabibileg a siudadda ket kaslanto iti nabaybay-an nga agdan a kayo iti tapaw ti turod, a napanawan gapu kadagiti tattao ti Israel ket agbalinto daytoy a nabaybay-an.
10 For you have forgotten the God of your salvation, and have not remembered the rock of your strength. Therefore you plant pleasant plants, and set out foreign seedlings.
Ta linipatyo ti Dios a manangisalakanyo, ken saanyo nga inkaskaso ti maiyarig iti bato a pigsayo. Isu a nagmulakayo kadagiti napipintas a mulmula ken nagmulakayo kadagiti karkarna a bin-i
11 In the day of your planting, you hedge it in. In the morning, you make your seed blossom, but the harvest flees away in the day of grief and of desperate sorrow.
iti aldaw a nagmulakayo ket inaladan ken rinuk-itanyo. Agtubonto iti mabiit ti bukelyo, ngem ti maapitto ket aldaw ti ladingit ken nakaro a liday.
12 Ah, the uproar of many peoples, who roar like the roaring of the seas; and the rushing of nations, that rush like the rushing of mighty waters.
Asi pay! Ti arimbangaw dagiti adu a tatttao, dayta nga arimbangaw ket kasla panagdaranudor dagiti baybay ken panagkaribuso dagiti nasion, dayta a karibuso ket kasla danarudor ti napigsa a danum!
13 The nations will rush like the rushing of many waters: but he will rebuke them, and they will flee far off, and will be chased like the chaff of the mountains before the wind, and like the whirling dust before the storm.
Agarimbangawto dagiti nasion a kasla panagdaranudor ti adu a danum ngem pasardengento ida ti Dios. Agtataraydanto iti adayo ket kamatendanto ida a kasla kadagiti maitayab a nagango a ruot kadagiti banbantay ken kasla kadagiti maiyalipugpog a ruruot.
14 At evening, look, terror. Before the morning, they are no more. This is the portion of those who plunder us, and the lot of those who rob us.
Iti rabii, kitaenyo, nakabutbuteng! Ket sakbay a bumigat awandanton; dayta ti maganab dagiti mangsamsam kadatayo, ti maganab dagiti agtakaw kadatayo.
