Lamentations 4
1 How the gold has become dim. How the most pure gold has changed. The stones of the sanctuary are poured out at the head of every street.
Saanen a narimat ti balitok; nagbaliwen ti kapupuroan a balitok. Naibukboken dagiti nasagradoan a batbato iti nagsasabatan dagiti kalsada.
2 The precious sons of Zion, comparable to fine gold, How they are regarded as clay jars, the work of the hands of the potter.
Napateg unay idi dagiti annak ti Sion, napatpateg ngem iti puro a balitok. Ngem itan ket kaiyariganda laengen ti burnay nga inaramid ti agdamdamili.
3 Even the jackals offer the breast, they nurse their young ones, but the daughter of my people has become cruel, like the ostriches in the wilderness.
Uray dagiti atap nga aso ket iparangda dagiti susoda tapno pasusoenda dagiti ukenda, ngem ti babai nga anak dagiti tattaok ket naranggas a maiyarig iti abestrus iti disierto.
4 The nursing infant's tongue sticks to the roof of his mouth for thirst. The young children ask for bread, but no one gives to them.
Dumket ti dila ti agsuso nga ubing iti ngangawna gapu iti pannakawawna, dumawat dagiti ubbing iti tinapay, ngem awan ti maited para kadakuada.
5 Those who ate delicacies are destitute in the streets. Those who were brought up in purple embrace ash heaps.
Dagiti tattao a sigud a mangmangan iti agkakangina a taraon ket nabaybay-anen a mabisbisinan kadagiti kalsada; dagiti sigud nga agkawkawes iti nalabbaga a pagan-anay ket addan ita iti tuktok dagiti gabsuon dagiti basura.
6 For the iniquity of the daughter of my people is greater than the sin of Sodom, which was overthrown in an instant, and no hands were laid on her.
Ti nagbasolan ti babai nga anak dagiti tattaok ket dakdakkel ngem iti basol ti Sodoma, a naibelleng iti apagdarikmat uray no awan nangtiliw iti daytoy.
7 Her consecrated ones were purer than snow, whiter than milk; their bodies more ruddy than rubies, their appearance was like lapis lazuli.
Dagiti mangidadaulo kenkuana ket sigud a kasla nasileng a niebe ken kas kapudaw iti gatas. Nalablabbaga ti bagbagida ngem iti napintas a rubi iti baybay; kasla safiro ti sukogda.
8 They appear darker than soot; they are not known in the streets. Their skin cleaves to their bones; it is withered and has become as dry as a stick.
Ita ket pinangisiten ti kasipngetan dagiti langada, ket narigatdan a mabigbig kadagiti kalkalsada, ta dimketen dagiti kudilda kadagiti tultulangda. Nagangon daytoy a kas iti kayo!
9 Those who are killed with the sword are better than those who are killed with hunger; those who waste away, pierced through, for lack of the fruits of the field.
Dagiti napapatay babaen iti kampilan ket am-amang a nasaysayaatda ngem dagiti natay gapu iti bisin; nasaysayaatda nga amang ngem kadagiti nakapsut; nga arigna a naduyok gapu iti bisin iti kinaawan ti apit kadagiti talon.
10 The hands of the compassionate women have cooked their own children; they were their food in the destruction of the daughter of my people.
Inluto dagiti ima dagiti naasi a babbai dagiti mismo nga annakda; dagitoy nga ubbing ket nagbalin a taraonda kabayatan ti pannakarumek ti babai nga anak dagiti tattaok.
11 The LORD has accomplished his wrath, he has poured out his fierce anger; he has kindled a fire in Zion, which has devoured its foundations.
Pinennek ni Yahweh ti pungtotna. Imbukbokna ti umap-apuy nga ungetna; kasla nangpasged isuna idiay Sion ket inkisap daytoy dagiti pundasionna.
12 The kings of the earth did not believe, neither all the inhabitants of the world, that the adversary or the enemy would enter into the gates of Jerusalem.
Uray dagiti ari ditoy daga wenno ti siasinoman nga agnanaed iti daytoy a lubong ket saan a mamati nga adda makastrek a kasupiat ken kabusor kadagiti ruangan ti Jerusalem.
13 It is because of the sins of her prophets, and the iniquities of her cohanim, that have shed the blood of the just in the midst of her.
Ngem inaramidda, gapu kadagiti basbasol dagiti profetana, ken kadagiti nagkurangan dagiti papadina a nangpasayasay iti dara dagiti nalilinteg.
14 They wander as blind men in the streets, they are polluted with blood, so that men can't touch their garments.
Agalla-alla itan dagidiay a profeta ken papadi a kas kadagiti bulsek kadagiti kalkalsada. Natulawandan babaen iti dayta a dara isu nga awan ti makabael nga uray mangsagid kadagiti kawesda.
15 "Go away." they cried to them, "Unclean. Away, away. Do not touch." When they fled away and wandered, men said among the nations, "They shall not live here anymore."
“Panaw! Dakayo a narugit,” kastoy ti ipukpukkaw dagitoy a propeta ken papadi. “Pumanawkayo! Saandakami a sagsagiden!” Isu a nagalla-allada kadagiti nadumaduma a daga, ngem uray dagiti Hentil ket kunkunada, “Saandan a makapagnaed ditoy a kas ganggannaet.”
16 The LORD himself has scattered them; he will no more regard them. They did not respect the cohanim, they did not favor the elders.
Inwaras ida ni Yahweh manipud iti imatangna, saanna idan a kakaasian. Awanen ti mangpasangbay nga addaan iti panagraem kadagiti papadi, ken ipakpakitada a saandan a kailalaan dagiti panglakayen.
17 Our eyes still fail, looking in vain for our help. In our watching we have watched for a nation that could not save.
Kanayon a mapaay dagiti matami a makasarak iti awan kaaspingna a tulong, numan pay sigagagarda a nangkita iti nasion a saan met a mangisalakan kadakami.
18 They hunt our steps, so that we can't go in our streets. Our end is near, our days are fulfilled; for our end has come.
Inan-anupda dagiti tugotmi kadagiti kalsada. Asidegen ti kanibusananmi ken mabilbilangen dagiti al-aldawmi, ta dimtengen ti panungpalanmi.
19 Our pursuers were swifter than the eagles of the sky. They chased us on the mountains, they lay in wait for us in the wilderness.
Naparpartak dagiti mangkamkamat kadakami ngem dagiti agila iti tangatang. Inanupdakami agingga kadagiti banbantay sadakami pinadaanan iti let-ang.
20 The breath of our nostrils, the anointed of the LORD, was taken in their pits; of whom we said, "Under his shadow we can live among the nations."
Ti anges iti agongmi, ti dinutokan ni Yahweh - ti arimi, ket napalab-ogan babaen kadagiti abut; ti arimi a nangibagaanmi nga, “Agbiagkami kadagiti nasion iti babaen ti panangsalaknibna.”
21 Rejoice and be glad, daughter of Edom, that dwell in the land of Uz. The cup shall pass through to you also; you will get drunk, and shall make yourself naked.
Agrag-o ken agragsakka, babai nga anak ti Edom nga agnanaed iti daga ti Us, ta maipasanto kenka ti kopa. Mabartekkanto ken silalamo-lamo.
22 The punishment of your iniquity is accomplished, daughter of Zion; he will no more carry you away into captivity. He will visit your iniquity, daughter of Edom; he will uncover your sins.
Naggibusen ti dusam, babai nga anak ti Sion. Saannakan a paipanaw. Ngem dusaennaka iti nagbasolam, babai nga anak ti Edom. Lukaisannanto pay dagiti basbasolmo.
