Isaiah 45
1 Cyrus is the one whom Yahweh has appointed [to be the emperor of Persia] and to whom he will give great power [IDM]; Yahweh will enable him to defeat other nations and to take away the power of their kings. He will cause gates of cities to be opened, and no one will ever be able to shut them.
Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh iti pinulotanna, kenni Ciro, a kinibinko ti makannawan nga imana, tapno maiturayanna dagiti nasion iti sangoananna, tapno maikkatan iti igam dagiti ar-ari, ken tapno malukatan dagiti ruangan iti sangoananna, tapno silulukat latta dagiti ruangan:
2 This is what Yahweh says to him: “Cyrus, I will go ahead of you and level the mountains. I will smash down bronze gates and cut through iron bars.
“Umun-unaakto kenka ket patagek dagiti banbantay; burakburakekto dagiti ruangan a bronse ken tuktukkolekto dagiti landok a balunetda,
3 I will give you treasures [that people have hidden] in dark secret places [DOU]. I will do that in order that you will know that I am Yahweh, the God to whom the Israelis belong, the God who calls you by your name.
ken itedkonto kenka dagiti gameng ti kinasipnget ken dagiti kinabaknang a naidulin, tapno maammoam a siak a ni Yahweh, ti mangaw-awag kenka babaen iti naganmo, Siak a Dios ti Israel.
4 I have summoned you, calling out your name, for the sake of [the people of] Israel [DOU] whom I have chosen, who serve me. Even though you do not know me, I will give you a title which has great honor.
Para iti pagsayaatan ti adipenko a ni Jacob, ken ti Israel a pinilik, inawaganka babaen iti naganmo: inikkanka iti pakaidayawam, numan pay saannak nga am-ammo.
5 I am Yahweh, and there is no other God [DOU]. Even though you do not know me, I will give you power
Siak ni Yahweh, ket awanen ti sabali pay; awanen ti Dios no di siak laeng. Ikkanka iti igam para iti gubat, numan pay saannak nga am-ammo;
6 in order that everyone in the world, from the east to the west, will know that there is no other [God]. I am Yahweh, and there is no other [God].
tapno maammoan dagiti tattao manipud iti pagsingsingisingan ti init, ken manipud iti laud, nga awan ti dios no di siak laeng: Siak ni Yahweh, ket awanen ti sabali pay.
7 I created the light and the darkness. I cause there to be peace and I cause there to be disasters. I, Yahweh, do all those things.”
Inaramidko ti lawag ken pinarsuak ti kinasipnget; inyegko ti talna ken mangar-aramidak kadagiti didigra; Siak ni Yahweh, a mangar-aramid kadagitoy amin a banbanag.
8 [And Yahweh also says, “I want my] rescue [of my people] [MET] to fall from the sky like rain. Just like the earth opens wide to accept rain, I will rescue/save my people and cause them to be treated justly. I, Yahweh, am the one who will cause both of those things to happen.
Dakayo a langit, agtudokayo! Bay-an nga agtudo ti tangatang iti kinalinteg a pannakaisalakan. Sagepsepen koma daytoy ti daga, tapno agrusing koma ti pannakaisalakan, ken agtubo met ti kinalinteg. Siak, a ni Yahweh, ket pinarsuak dagitoy a dua.
9 Terrible things will happen to those who argue with me, the one who created them. [They are like] [MET] a clay pot and [I am like] the one who made it; so they certainly cannot [RHQ] criticize me. A lump of clay certainly cannot [RHQ] argue with the one who shapes it [to form a pot], saying, ‘Why are you making me like this?’ The pot cannot say ‘[You have no skill, because] what you made has no handles!’
Asi pay ti siasinoman a makisinnupiat iti nangaramid kenkuana! Maysa a banga kadagiti amin a banga iti daga! Nasken kadi nga ibaga ti pila iti agdamdamili, 'Ania ti ar-aramidem?' wenno, 'Ania ti inar-aramidmo—awan kadi imam idi inaramidmo daytoy?'
10 And it would be terrible if an unborn baby would say to its father, ‘Why are you [RHQ] causing me to be born?’ or if it said to its mother, ‘The result of your labor pains will be useless?’”
Asi pay ti agkuna iti maysa nga ama, 'Ania ngay daytoy nga iputotmo?' wenno iti maysa nga ina, 'Ania ngay daytoy nga ipasngaymo?'
11 Yahweh, the Holy One of the Israeli people, the one who created Israel, says this to them: “(Why do you ask questions about [what I do for you], my children?/You should not ask questions about [what I do for you], my children.) [RHQ] (Why do you tell me about the work that I should do?/You should not tell me about the work that I should do.) [RHQ]
Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, a Nasantoan ti Israel, a Namarsua kenkuana: 'Maipapan kadagiti banbanag a mapasamakto, tubngarennak kadi maipanggep kadagiti annakko? Ibagam kadi kaniak no ania ti aramidek maipapan kadagiti aramid dagiti imak?'
12 I am the one who created the earth and created people to live on it. I stretched out the sky with my hands, and I put the stars in their places.
Inaramidko ti daga ken pinarsuak ti tao iti rabaw daytoy. Dagiti imak ti nangiyukrad kadagiti langit, ken imbilinko kadagiti amin a bitbituen nga agparangda.
13 And I will appoint Cyrus to do things that are right/just, and I will enable him to do all those things easily [MET]. His [workers] will rebuild my city, and he will free my people who have been (exiled/forced to leave their country). And he will do it without my rewarding/paying him! [Those things will surely happen because] I, the Commander of the armies of angels, have said it.
Tinignayko ni Ciro iti kinalinteg, ken papintasekto dagiti amin a pagnaanna. Bangonennanto ti suidadko; paawidennanto dagiti tattaok a naitalaw a kas balud, ket saan a gapu iti bayad wenno pasuksok,”' kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin.
14 And this is [also] what [I], Yahweh, say [to you, my people]: ‘You will rule the people of Egypt and Ethiopia, and the tall people of Seba [in Arabia] will become your slaves. They will come to you bringing all the things that they sell, and it will all be yours. [As prisoners], they will have chains on their arms as they follow you. They will prostrate themselves in front of you and say, “God is with/helping you and he is the only God; there is no other God.” '”
Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, “Dagiti urnong ti Egipto ken dagiti tagilako ti Etiopia agraman dagiti Sabeos a natatayag a tattao, ket maiyegto kenka. Kukuamto amin dagitoy. Surutendakanto, nakakawardanto nga umay. Agruknoydanto kenka ken makipakpakaasidanto kenka a kunada, 'Awan duadua nga adda kenka ti Dios, ken awanen ti sabali no di laeng isuna.’”
15 God, although we cannot see you, you are the one to whom [we] Israeli people belong, the one who saves us.
Pudno a sika ti Dios a saan a makitkita, Dios ti Israel, a Mannangisalakan.
16 All those who make idols will be humiliated. They will all be disgraced together.
Maibabaindanto amin ken sangsangkamaysadanto a maipababa; dagiti agkitkitikit kadagiti didiosen ket agbiagto iti pannakaibabain.
17 But you, Yahweh, will rescue [us, your] Israeli people, and we will be free forever. Never again will we again be humiliated and disgraced.
Ngem isalakanto ni Yahweh ti Israel iti agnanayon a pannakaisalakan; saankanto a pulos a maibabain manen.
18 Yahweh is God; he is the one who created the sky and created and formed the earth. He did not want it to remain with nothing living on it; he wanted people to live on it. [He says], “I am Yahweh; there is no other [God].
Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, a namarsua kadagiti langit, ti pudno a Dios a namarsua iti daga ken nangaramid iti daytoy, ti nangipasdek iti daytoy. Inaramidna daytoy, saan a kas maysa a langalang, ngem inaramidna daytoy a pagnaedan: “Siak ni Yahweh, ket awanen sabali pay.
19 [What I proclaimed], I did not speak secretly or [hide what I was saying by speaking] in a dark place. When I spoke to the descendants of Jacob, I did not tell them ‘It will be useless for you to (seek for/pray to) me!’ I, Yahweh, speak [only] what is true and what is right.
Saan a nalimed ti pannakisaritak, kadagiti nalimed a lugar; saanko nga imbaga kadagiti kaputotan ni Jacob, 'Sapulendak!' ket awan gayam serbi iti panangsapulda kaniak. Siak ni Yahweh, a sipupudno nga agsasao; ibagbagak dagiti nalinteg a banbanag.
20 You people who are still alive after experiencing great disasters, should come and gather together [and listen to this]: The people who carry around their wooden idols and pray to them are foolish, because those idols cannot rescue them!
Aguummongkayo ket umaykayo! Aguummongkayo amin, dakayo a napagtalaw manipud kadagiti nasion! Maagda, dagiti mangaw-awit kadagiti imahen ken dagiti agkarkararag kadagiti didiosen a saan a makaisalakan.
21 Talk among yourselves, and decide what you will say to prove that [your praying to idols is good]. [And when you do that, I will ask you], ‘Who predicted long ago [what has now happened]? Did any idol tell you [that those things would happen] [RHQ]?’ No, it was [RHQ] only I, Yahweh, who told you, because I am the only God; there is no other God. I am a God who acts righteously and saves people; there is no other one [who does these things].
Umasidegkayo ket ibagayo kaniak, iparangyo dagiti pammaneknek! Agkaykaysada koma nga agpanggep. Siasino ti nangipakita iti daytoy idi un-unana? Siasino ti nangiwaragawag iti daytoy? Saan kadi a Siak, a ni Yahweh? Ken awanen ti Dios malaksid kaniak, maysa a nalinteg a Dios ken Mangisalakan; awan iti sabali no di laeng siak.
22 Everyone in the world should ask me to save them, because I am the only God who can do that; there is no other one.
Agsublikayo kaniak ket maisalakankayo, amin a pungto ti daga; ta siak ti Dios, ket awanen ti sabali a dios.
23 I have solemnly declared, using my own name; I [SYN] have spoken what is true, and I will never change what I have said: [Some day], everyone [SYN] will bow in front of me, and they will all solemnly promise to be loyal to me.
'Agsapataak, ibagak ti nalinteg a pagannurotak, ken saanto a maibabawi daytoy: Agparintumengto kaniak ti tunggal tumeng, agkarinto kaniak ti tunggal dila.
24 They will declare, ‘Yahweh is the one who enables us to live righteously and to be strong.’” And all those who have been angry at him will come to him, and they will be ashamed [for having been angry with him].
Ibagbagana, “Kenni Yahweh laeng ti pannakaisalakan ken pigsa.''''' Amin dagiti makaunget kenkuana ket agbainto iti msangngoananna.
25 Yahweh is the only one who will enable [us] Israeli people in the future to defeat our enemies, [and then] we will boast about what he [has done for us].
Kenni Yahweh, amin dagiti kaputotan ti Israel ket maibilangto a nalinteg; agpannakkeldanto gapu iti naaramidanna.
