< Isaias 47 >

1 Bumabaka ket agtugawka iti tapok, sika a birhen nga anak ti Babilonia; agtugawka iti daga nga awanan iti trono, sika nga anak a babai dagiti Caldeo. Saankan a maawagan a nalibnos ken nalapsat.
“Come down, and sit in the dust, virgin daughter of Babylon [Confusion]. Sit on the ground without a throne, daughter of the Chaldeans [Descendants of Loving-kindness]. For you will no longer be called tender and delicate.
2 Alaem ti gilingan a bato ket aggilingka iti arina; ikkatem ta dalungdongmo, ussobem ti nagayad a kawesmo, lislisam dagita luppom, ballasiwem dagiti karayan.
Take the millstones, and grind flour. Remove your veil, lift up your skirt, uncover your legs, and wade through the rivers.
3 Maiparangto ti kinalamolamom, wen, makitanto ti pannakaibabainmo: Agibalesak ket awan iti labsak a tao.
Your nakedness will be uncovered. Yes, your shame will be seen. I will take vengeance, and will spare no one.”
4 Ti Mannubbottayo ket Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin ti naganna, ti Nasantoan a Dios ti Israel.
Our Redeemer, Adonai Tzva'ot [Yahweh Commander of heaven’s armies] is his name, is the haKadosh Isra'el [the Holy One of God prevails].
5 Agtugawka a siuulimek ket mapanka iti kinasipnget, anak a babai dagiti Caldeo; ta saankan a maawagan a Reyna dagiti pagarian.
“Sit in silence, and go into darkness, daughter of the Chaldeans [Descendants of Loving-kindness]. For you shall no longer be called the mistress of kingdoms.
6 Nakaungetak kadagiti tattaok; rinugitak ti tawidko ken inyawatko ida kenka, ngem saanmo ida a kinaasian; sinangolam iti nadagsen unay dagiti lallakay.
I was angry with my people. I profaned my inheritance, and gave them into your hand. You showed them no racham ·merciful love·. You laid a very heavy yoke on the aged.
7 Kinunam, “Agturayak iti agnanayon a kas naturay a reyna.” Saanmo nga impapuso dagitoy a banbanag, wenno pinanunot no ania ti pagbanagan dagitoy.
You said, ‘I will be a princess forever;’ so that you did not lay these things to your heart, nor did you remember the results.
8 Ita ngarud denggem daytoy, sika a mangay-ayat iti ragragsak ken sika nga agtugtugaw a sitatalged, sika a mangibagbaga iti pusom, “Agbibiagak, ket awanen ti sabali pay a kas kaniak; saanakto a pulos nga agtugaw a kas balo, wenno saankonto a pulos a mapadasan ti mapukawan kadagiti annak.”
“Now therefore sh'ma ·hear obey· this, you who are given to pleasures, who sit securely, who say in your heart, ‘I am, and there is no one else besides me. I shall not sit as a widow, neither shall I know the loss of children.’
9 Ngem iti apagkanito iti maysa la nga aldaw, mapasamakto kenka dagitoy dua a banag: ti pannakapukaw kadagiti annak ken ti pannakabalo: awanto iti makalapped iti iyuumay dagitoy kenka, uray no ipakatmo iti panagsalamangkam, ken adu a kita iti panaganito ken an-anib.
But these two things shall come to you in a moment in one day, the loss of children and widowhood. They will come on you in their full measure, in the multitude of your sorceries, and the great abundance of your enchantments.
10 Nagtalekka iti kinadangkesmo; kinunam, “Awan iti makakitkita kaniak;” Iyaw-awannaka ti kinasiribmo ken pannakaammom, ngem kinunam iti pusom, “Agbibiagak, ket awanen ti sabali pay a kas kaniak.”
For you have trusted in your wickedness. You have said, ‘No one sees me.’ Your wisdom and your knowledge has perverted you. You have said in your heart, ‘I am, and there is no one else besides me.’
11 Agdissuorto kenka ti didigra; saanmonto a mapasardeng daytoy babaen iti panaganitom. Agdissuorto kenka ti pannakadadael; saanmoto a maliklikan daytoy. Kellaatto nga umay kenka ti didigra a saanmo daytoy a mapakpakadaan.
Therefore disaster will come on you. You won’t know when it dawns. Mischief will fall on you. You won’t be able to put it away. Desolation will come on you suddenly, which you don’t understand.
12 Ipakatmo ti panangsalamangkam ken panaganitom nga inar-aramidmo a sipupudno sipud pay kinaubingmo; bareng no agballigika, bareng no mapapanawmo ti didigra.
“Stand now with your enchantments, and with the multitude of your sorceries, in which you have labored from your youth; as if you might profit; as if you might prevail.
13 Nabannogka iti adu a panakiyumanmo; tumakder koma dagidiay a tattao ket isalakandaka—dagiti mangad-adal kadagiti langit ken kadagiti bitbituen, dagidiay mangiparparangarang iti baro a bulan—isalakandaka koma iti mabalin a mapasamak kenka.
You are wearied in the multitude of your counsels. Now let the astrologers, the stargazers, and the monthly prognosticators, stand up and save you from the things that will come on you.
14 Kitaem, agbalidanto a kasla garami. Uramento ida ti apuy. Saandanto a maisalakan dagiti bagbagida manipud iti apuy. Awanto beggang a mangpapudot kadakuada ken apuy a paginudoanda!
Behold, they shall are like stubble. The fire will burn them. They won’t deliver themselves from the power of the flame. It won’t be a coal to warm at or a fire to sit by.
15 Awanto ti maganabmo kadagidiay a nagbanbannogam, kadagidiay nagtagtagilakoam manipud kinaagtutubom; magsipanawda, tunggal maysa iti dalanna; awanto ti siasinoman a mangisalakan kenka.
The things that you labored in will be like this: those who have trafficked with you from your youth will each wander in his own way. There will be no one to save you.
