Isaias 48

1 Denggenyo daytoy, balay ni Jacob, a naawagan iti nagan nga Israel, ken nagtaud iti kaputotan ti Juda; dakayo nga agsapsapata iti nagan ni Yahweh ken umaw-awag iti Dios ti Israel, ngem saan nga iti kinapudno wenno iti nalinteg a wagas.

“Hear this, O house of Jacob, Who are called by the name of Israel, And from the waters of Judah came out, Who are swearing by the Name of YHWH, And make mention of the God of Israel, Not in truth nor in righteousness.

2 Ta awaganda dagiti bagida a tattao iti nasantoan a siudad ken agtaltalek iti Dios ti Israel; Yahweh a Mannakabalin-amin ti naganna.

For they have been called from the Holy City, And been supported on the God of Israel, YHWH of Hosts [is] His Name.

3 “Naipakaammokon dagiti banbanag manipud idi; nagtaud dagitoy iti ngiwatko, ken naipakaammok dagitoy; kalpasanna, inaramidko a dagus dagitoy, ket napasamak dagitoy.

I declared the former things from that time, And they have gone forth from My mouth, And I proclaim them, Suddenly I have done, and it comes.

4 Gapu ta ammok a natangken ti uloyo, kas katangken ti landok ti piskel ti tengngedyo ken kasla bronse ti mugingyo,

From My knowing that you are obstinate, And your neck—a sinew of iron, And your forehead—bronze,

5 isu nga impakaammokon dagitoy a banbanag kadakayo idi; sakbay a napasamak dagitoy, impakaammokon kadakayo tapno saanyo nga ibaga nga, 'Ti didiosek iti nangaramid kadagitoy,' wenno 'ti imahen a kayo wenno ti imahen a landok ti nangaramid kadagitoy a banbanag.'

And from that time I declare [it] to you, Before it comes I have caused you to hear, Lest you say, My idol has done them, And my carved image, And my molten image commanded them.

6 Nangngegyo ti maipanggep kadagitoy a banbanag, kitaenyo amin daytoy a pammaneknek; ket dakayo, saanyo kadi nga aklunen a pudno dagitoy nga imbagak? Manipud ita, mangipakitaak kadakayo iti baro a banbanag a nailemmeng a saanyo pay a naammoan.

You have heard, see the whole of it, And you, do you not declare? I have caused you to hear new things from this time, And things reserved that you did not know.

7 Rimsuada ita a saan ket nga idi, ken saanyo pay a nangngeg ti maipapan kadagitoy sakbay daytoy nga aldaw, isu a saanyo a maibaga, 'Wen, ammok ti maipapan kadagitoy.'

Now they have been produced and not from that time, Indeed, before the day, and you have not heard them, Lest you say, Behold, I have known them.

8 Saanyo a pulos a nangngeg; saanyo nga ammo; saan idi a nailawlawag dagitoy a bambanag kadagiti lapayagyo. Ta ammok a manangallilawkayo unay, ken nasukirkayon sipud pay pannakaiyanakyo.

Indeed, you have not heard, Indeed, you have not known, Indeed, your ear has not opened from that time, For I have known you deal treacherously, And [are] a transgressor from the belly, One is crying to you.

9 Para iti naganko, lapdakto ti ungetko, ken gapu iti dayawko ket saanko nga ituloy ti panangdadaelko kadakayo.

I defer My anger for My Name’s sake, And [for] My praise I restrain for you, So as not to cut you off.

10 Kitaenyo, ginugorankayo, ngem saan a kas iti pirak; pinasin-awkayo iti hurno ti panagsagaba.

Behold, I have refined you, and not with silver, I have chosen you in a furnace of affliction.

11 Para iti bukodko a pagimbagan, gapu iti bukodko a pagimbagan nga agtignayakto; ta kasano nga ipalubosko a maibabain ti naganko? Saankonto nga ited ti dayagko iti sabali.

For My sake, for My own sake, I do [it], For how is it defiled? And I do not give My glory to another.

12 Dumngegkayo kaniak, Jacob ken Israel nga inayabak: Siak isuna; siak ti umuna ken siak met laeng ti maudi.

Listen to me, O Jacob, and Israel, My called one, I [am] He, I [am] first, and I [am] last;

13 Wen, ti imak ti nangisaad iti pundasion ti daga, ken ti makannawan nga imak ti nangiyaplag kadagiti langit; no awagak ida, sangsangkamaysada a tumakder.

Also, My hand has founded earth, And My right hand stretched out the heavens, I am calling to them, they stand together.

14 Aguummongkayo, dakayo amin, ket dumngegkayo; Siasino kadakayo ti nangiwaragawag kadagitoy a babanag? Aramidento ti katulongan ni Yahweh ti gandatna iti Babilonia. Aramidennanto ti pagayatan ni Yahweh maibusor kadagiti Caldeo.

Be gathered, all of you, and hear, Who among them declared these things? YHWH has loved him, He does His pleasure on Babylon, And His arm [is on] the Chaldeans.

15 Siak, nasaokon, wen, pinaayabakon isuna, inyegkon isuna, ket agballiginto.

I have spoken, indeed, I have called him, I have brought him in, And he has made his way prosperous.

16 Umasidegkayo kaniak, dumngegkayo iti daytoy; manipud idi punganay saanak a nagsao iti nalimed; no mapasamak daytoy, addaak sadiay; ket ita imbaonnak ni Apo a Yahweh, ken ti Espirituna.”

Come near to Me, hear this, I have not spoken in secret from the beginning, From the time of its being, I [am] there, And now Lord YHWH has sent Me, and His Spirit.”

17 Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, a Mannubbotyo, a Nasantoan a Dios ti Israel, “Siak ni Yahweh a Diosyo, a mangisursuro kadakayo no kasano ti agballigi, a mangidaldalan kadakayo iti rumbeng a dalan a papananyo.

Thus said YHWH, your Redeemer, The Holy One of Israel: “I [am] your God YHWH, teaching you to profit, Causing you to tread in the way you go.

18 No tinungpalyo laeng koma dagiti bilbilinko! Ket nagayus koma a kasla karayan ti kapia ken panagrang-ayyo, ken ti pannakaisalakanyo ket kasla kadagiti dalluyon ti baybay.

O that you had attended to My commands, Then your peace is as a river, And your righteousness as billows of the sea,

19 Nagbalin koma a kas kaadu ti darat dagiti kaputotanyo, ken dagiti annak kadagiti aanakanyo ket kas kaadu dagiti binukel ti darat; saan koma a napukaw ti naganda iti sangoanak.

And your seed is as sand, And the offspring of your bowels as gravel, His name would not be cut off nor destroyed before Me.”

20 Rummuarkayo iti Babilonia! Panawanyo dagiti Caldeo! Ipukkawyo nga iwaragawag daytoy! Ipakaammoyo daytoy, padanunenyo daytoy agingga kadagiti pungto ti daga! Ibagayo, 'Inispal ni Yahweh ni Jacob nga adipenna.'

Go out from Babylon, flee from the Chaldeans, Declare with a voice of singing, Cause this to be heard, Bring it forth to the end of the earth, Say, “YHWH has redeemed His servant Jacob.”

21 Saanda a nawaw idi inturongna ida kadagiti disierto; pinagayusna ti danum manipud iti bato para kadakuada; binittakna ti bato ket pimsuak ti danum.

And they have not thirsted in wastelands, He has caused them to go on, He has caused waters from a rock to flow to them, Indeed, he cleaves a rock, and waters flow.

22 Awan iti talna para kadagiti nadangkes—kuna ni Yahweh.”

“There is no peace,” said YHWH, “for the wicked!”
