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 proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim. And the fading flower of the beauty of his glory, That [is] on the head of the fat valley of the broken down of 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.
Lo, a mighty and strong one [is] to the Lord, As a storm of hail — a destructive shower, As an inundation of mighty waters overflowing, He cast down to the earth with the hand.
3 Maibaddebaddekto ti napalanguad a korona dagiti mammartek ti Efraim.
By feet trodden down is the proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim,
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 fading flower of the beauty of his glory That [is] on the head of the fat valley, Hath been as its first-fruit before summer, That its beholder seeth, While it [is] yet in his hand he swalloweth it.
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 is Jehovah of Hosts For a crown of beauty, and for a diadem of glory, To the remnant 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 who is sitting in the judgment, And for might [to] those turning back 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.
And even these through wine have erred, And through strong drink have wandered, Priest and prophet erred through strong drink, They have been swallowed up of the wine, They wandered because of the strong drink, They have erred in seeing, They have stumbled judicially.
8 Pudno, amin a lamisaan ket nalapunos iti sarua, isu nga awan iti nadalus a disso.
For all tables have been full of vomit, Filth — without place!
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?
By whom doth He teach knowledge? And by whom doth He cause to understand the report? The weaned from milk, the removed from 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 rule [is] on rule, rule on rule, line on line, line on line, A little here, a little there,
11 Kinapudnona, babaen kadagiti mananguyaw a bibig ken babaen iti pagsasao a ganggannaet, kasaonanto dagitoy a tattao.
For by scorned lip, and by another tongue, Doth He speak unto this people.
12 Iti napalabas, kinunana kadakuada, “Daytoy ti inana, paginanaenyo dagiti nabannog; ken daytoy ti makapabang-ar,” ngem saanda met a dumngeg.
Unto whom He hath said, 'This [is] the rest, give ye rest to the weary, And this — the refreshing:' And they have not been willing to 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.
And to whom a word of Jehovah hath been, Rule on rule, rule on rule, line on line, line on line, A little here, a little there, So that they go and have stumbled backward, And been broken, and snared, and captured.
14 Isu a dumngegkayo iti sao ni Yahweh, dakayo a manguy-uyaw, a mangiturturay kadagitoy a tattao iti Jerusalem.
Therefore, hear a word of Jehovah, ye men of scorning, Ruling this people that [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 Sheol we have made a provision, An overflowing scourge, when it passeth over, Doth not meet us, Though we have made a lie our refuge, And in falsehood have been hidden.' (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 said the Lord Jehovah: 'Lo, I am laying a foundation in Zion, A stone — a tried stone, a corner stone precious, a settled foundation, He who is believing doth 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.
And I have put judgment for a line, And righteousness for a plummet, And sweep away doth hail the refuge of lies, And the secret hiding-place do waters overflow.
18 Mawaswasto ti katulaganyo iti patay, ket saanto nga agbayag ti pannakitulagyo iti sheol. Inton sumangbay ti napigsa a layus, lipusennakayto. (Sheol h7585)
And disannulled hath been your covenant with death, And your provision with Sheol doth not stand, An overflowing scourge, when it passeth over, Then ye have been to it for a treading-place. (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 fulness of its passing over it taketh you, For morning by morning it passeth over, By day and by night, And it hath been only a trembling to consider the report.
20 Ta ababa unay ti pagiddaan a pagunnatan ti maysa a tao, ken ababa unay ti ules a mangbalkot iti bagina.”
For shorter hath been the bed Than to stretch one's self out in, And the covering hath been narrower Than to wrap one's self up in.
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 as [at] mount Perazim rise doth Jehovah, As [at] the valley in Gibeon He is troubled, To do His work — strange [is] His work, And to do His deed — strange [is] His deed.'
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.
And now, show not yourselves scorners, Lest strong be your bands, For a consumption, that is determined, I have heard, by the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts, [Is] for all the land.
23 Ipangagyo ken dumngegkayo iti timekko; ipangagyo ken dumngegkayo a naimbag kadagiti sasaok.
Give ear, and hear my voice, Attend, and hear my saying:
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?
The whole day plougheth the ploughman to sow? He openeth and harroweth 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?
Hath he not, if he have made level its face, Then scattered fitches, and cummin sprinkle, And hath placed the principal wheat, And the appointed barley, And the rie [in] its own border?
26 Bilbilinen isuna ti Diosna; sursurroanna isuna a nasayaat.
And instruct him for judgment doth his God, He doth direct 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 not with a sharp-pointed thing threshed are fitches, And the wheel of a cart on cummin turned round, For with a staff beaten out are fitches, And 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 beaten small, For not for ever doth he sorely thresh it, Nor crushed [it] hath a wheel of his cart, Nor do his hoofs beat it small.
29 Daytoy ket naggapu met kenni Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin, a naisangsangayan ti bilinna ken naindaklan ti kinasiribna.
Even this from Jehovah of Hosts hath gone out, He hath made counsel wonderful, He hath made wisdom great!
