< Isaias 28 >

1 Asi pay ti napalangguad a korona dagiti mammartek ti Efraim, ken ti agkupkupas a sabong ti napintas a dayagna, nga adda iti tengnga ti nabaknang a tanap dagiti nabartek iti arak!
Woe to the crown of pride, to the drunkards of Ephraim, whose glorious beauty is a fading flower, which are on the head of the fat valleys of them that are overcome with wine!
2 Kitaenyo, addaan ti Apo iti nasiglat ken nabileg; kas iti uraro, manangdadael a bagyo, kas iti nadawel ken napegges a danum. Dusaennanto ti daga babaen iti imana.
Behold, YHWH hath a mighty and strong one, which as a tempest of hail and a destroying storm, as a flood of mighty waters overflowing, shall cast down to the earth with the hand.
3 Maibaddebaddekto ti napalanguad a korona dagiti mammartek ti Efraim.
The crown of pride, the drunkards of Ephraim, shall be trodden under feet:
4 Ti agkupkupas a sabong ti napintas a dayagna, nga adda iti tengnga ti nabaknang a tanap, ket maiyarigto iti umuna a naluom a bunga ti igos sakbay iti panawen ti tikag, a no adda makakita iti daytoy, kabayatan nga adda pay laeng iti imana, kanennan daytoy.
And the glorious beauty, which is on the head of the fat valley, shall be a fading flower, and as the hasty fruit before the summer; which when he that looketh upon it seeth, while it is yet in his hand he eateth it up.
5 Iti dayta nga aldaw, ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin ket kaslanto napintas a korona ken maysa a korona a sabong ti kinapintas para kadagiti nabatbati a tattaona,
In that day shall YHWH of hosts be for a crown of glory, and for a diadem of beauty, unto the residue of his people,
6 espiritu ti kinalinteg kenkuana nga agtugtugaw iti pangukoman, ken pigsa para kadagidiay mangpasanud kadagiti kabusorda kadagiti ruanganda.
And for a spirit of judgment to him that sitteth in judgment, and for strength to them that turn the battle to the gate.
7 Ngem uray dagitoy ket maulaw met gapu iti arak, ken agdiwerdiwerda gapu iti naingel a mainum. Maulaw dagiti papadi ken profeta gapu iti naingel a mainum, ken mabartekda gapu iti arak. Agdiwerdiwerda gapu iti naingel a mainum, nariribuk ti sirmatada ken saanda a makaikeddeng iti umno.
But they also have erred through wine, and through strong drink are out of the way; the priest and the prophet have erred through strong drink, they are swallowed up of wine, they are out of the way through strong drink; they err in vision, they stumble in judgment.
8 Pudno, amin a lamisaan ket nalapunos iti sarua, isu nga awan iti nadalus a disso.
For all tables are full of vomit and filthiness, so that there is no place clean.
9 Siasino ngay ti masapul a pangisuroanna iti pannakaammo, ken siasino ngay ti rumbeng a pangilawlawaganna iti mensahe? Kadagidiay kadi napusot iti panaggatasda wenno dagiti kapuspusot iti panagsusoda?
Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts.
10 Ta kanayon a bilin ti ibagbagana; agibaga iti maysa a bilin ket agibaga manen iti maysa pay; agibaga iti maysa a linteg ket kalpasanna, agibaga manen iti sabali pay a linteg; bassit ditoy, bassit idiay.
For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:
11 Kinapudnona, babaen kadagiti mananguyaw a bibig ken babaen iti pagsasao a ganggannaet, kasaonanto dagitoy a tattao.
For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this people.
12 Iti napalabas, kinunana kadakuada, “Daytoy ti inana, paginanaenyo dagiti nabannog; ken daytoy ti makapabang-ar,” ngem saanda met a dumngeg.
To whom he said, This is the rest wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear.
13 Isu a ti sao ni Yahweh ket maitedto kadakuada, ta kanayon a bilin ti ibagbagana; agibaga iti maysa a bilin ket agibaga manen iti maysa pay; agibaga iti maysa a linteg ket kalpasanna, agibaga manen iti sabali pay a linteg; bassit ditoy, bassit idiay; iti kasta ket mapanda ket matuangda, mapasagda, mapalab-oganda ken matiliwda.
But the word of YHWH was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
14 Isu a dumngegkayo iti sao ni Yahweh, dakayo a manguy-uyaw, a mangiturturay kadagitoy a tattao iti Jerusalem.
Wherefore hear the word of YHWH, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem.
15 Kinunayo, “Nakitulagkami iti patay; nakitulagkami iti sheol. Isu nga inton lumabas ti nainget a panangukom, saankami a maan-ano, gapu ta pinagbalinmi a sarikedked ti inuulbod, ket iti kinaulbod ti naglemmenganmi.” (Sheol h7585)
Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves (Sheol h7585)
16 Isu a kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, “Kitaenyo: Mangipatakderakto idiay Sion iti bato a pundasion, maysa a napadasen a bato, maysa a napateg a pasuli a bato, maysa a natalged a pundasion. Siasinoman a mamati ket saanto a mabain.
Therefore thus saith the Master YHWH, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.
17 Pagbalinekto a pangrukod ti hustisia, ken ti kinalinteg ti aramidek a tinnag. Iyanudto ti uraro dagiti sarikedked nga inuulbod, ket lipusento ti layus ti disso a paglemlemmengan.
Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.
18 Mawaswasto ti katulaganyo iti patay, ket saanto nga agbayag ti pannakitulagyo iti sheol. Inton sumangbay ti napigsa a layus, lipusennakayto. (Sheol h7585)
And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it. (Sheol h7585)
19 Tunggal lumabas daytoy, lipusennakayonto daytoy, binigatto daytoy a lumabas ket aldaw ken rabii nga umayto daytoy. No naawatan ti mensahe, mangipaay daytoy iti nakaro a panagbuteng.
From the time that it goeth forth it shall take you: for morning by morning shall it pass over, by day and by night: and it shall be a vexation only to understand the report.
20 Ta ababa unay ti pagiddaan a pagunnatan ti maysa a tao, ken ababa unay ti ules a mangbalkot iti bagina.”
For the bed is shorter than that a man can stretch himself on it: and the covering narrower than that he can wrap himself in it.
21 Tumakderto ni Yahweh a kas iti inaramidna idiay Bantay Perazim, tumakderto isuna a kas iti inaramidna idiay tanap ti Gabaon tapno aramidenna ti trabahona, ti naidumduma a trabahona, ken tapno aramidenna ti naidumduma nga aramidna.
For YHWH shall rise up as in mount Perazim, he shall be wroth as in the valley of Gibeon, that he may do his work, his strange work; and bring to pass his act, his strange act.
22 Isu nga ita saankayo nga aguyaw, ta no saan mapairutanto dagiti kawaryo. Adda nangngegko a bilin maipanggep iti pannakadidigra ti daga manipud iti Apo, a ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin.
Now therefore be ye not mockers, lest your bands be made strong: for I have heard from the Master YHWH of hosts a consumption, even determined upon the whole earth.
23 Ipangagyo ken dumngegkayo iti timekko; ipangagyo ken dumngegkayo a naimbag kadagiti sasaok.
Give ye ear, and hear my voice; hearken, and hear my speech.
24 Agar-arado kadi lattan ti ub-ubraen ti mannalon nga agar-arado iti agmalem tapno agmula koma? Kanayonna kadi lattan nga ar-aradoen ken suysuyuden ti talon?
Doth the plowman plow all day to sow? doth he open and break the clods of his ground?
25 No naisagananan ti daga, saan kadi nga agiwaras isuna iti bukel ti neguillas, ibunubonna ti kumino, imulana nga agbabatog dagiti trigo, ken ti sebada iti umno a pakaimulaanna ken ti espelta kadagiti pungto ti talon?
When he hath made plain the face thereof, doth he not cast abroad the fitches, and scatter the cummin, and cast in the principal wheat and the appointed barley and rie in their place?
26 Bilbilinen isuna ti Diosna; sursurroanna isuna a nasayaat.
For his Elohim doth instruct him to discretion, and doth teach him.
27 Maysa pay, saan a maruros ti kumino babaen iti pasagad wenno iti karison a maipatulid iti rabaw ti kumino; ngem ketdi maruros ti neguillas babaen iti ruting, ken maruros ti kumino babaen iti sarukod.
For the fitches are not threshed with a threshing instrument, neither is a cart wheel turned about upon the cummin; but the fitches are beaten out with a staff, and the cummin with a rod.
28 Magiling ti bukel a maaramid a tinapay ngem saan unay a napino ken uray no iwaras daytoy dagiti dalig ti karisonna ken dagiti kabaliona, saan a marumek daytoy dagiti kabaliona.
Bread corn is bruised; because he will not ever be threshing it, nor break it with the wheel of his cart, nor bruise it with his horsemen.
29 Daytoy ket naggapu met kenni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin, a naisangsangayan ti bilinna ken naindaklan ti kinasiribna.
This also cometh forth from YHWH of hosts, which is wonderful in counsel, and excellent in working.
