< Isaias 55 >

1 “Umaykayo, dakayo amin a mawaw, umaykayo iti danum! Ken, dakayo nga awan kuartana umaykayo, gumatangkayo ken mangankayo! Umaykayo, gumatangkayo iti arak ken gatas uray awan kuarta ken awan iti pagbayadyo.
“Come, all you who are thirsty, come to the waters; and you without money, come, buy, and eat! Come, buy wine and milk without money and without cost!
2 Apay a mangtimbankayo iti pirak para iti saan a tinapay? Ken agtrabahokayo para iti saan a makapnek? Dumngegkayo a nasayaat kaniak ket mapnekayo, a kasla mangankayo iti kaimasan a taraon.
Why spend money on that which is not bread, and your labor on that which does not satisfy? Listen carefully to Me, and eat what is good, and your soul will delight in the richest of foods.
3 Dumngegkayo ket umaykayo kaniak! Dumngegkayo, tapno agbiagkayo! Pudno a makitulagak kadakayo iti agnanayon a tulag, iti napudno a tulag a naited kenni David.
Incline your ear and come to Me; listen, so that your soul may live. I will make with you an everlasting covenant— My loving devotion promised to David.
4 Kitaenyo, insaadko isuna a kas saksi kadagiti nasion, a kas pangulo ken mangidadaulo kadagiti tattao.
Behold, I have made him a witness to the nations, a leader and commander of the peoples.
5 Kitaenyo, umawagkayonto iti nasion a saanyo nga am-ammo; ken agtarayto nga agturong kadakayo ti nasion a saan a makaam-ammo kadakayo gapu kenni Yahweh a Diosyo, a Nasantoan ti Israel, a nangpadayaw kadakayo.”
Surely you will summon a nation you do not know, and nations who do not know you will run to you. For the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel, has bestowed glory on you.”
6 Birokenyo ni Yahweh kabayatan a mabirukan pay laeng isuna; umawagkayo kenkuana bayat nga asideg isuna.
Seek the LORD while He may be found; call on Him while He is near.
7 Panawan koma ti nadangkes ti dalanna, ken ti managbasol a tao ti panunotna. Agsubli koma isuna kenni Yahweh, ket kaasiannanto isuna, ken iti Diostayo, a mangpakawanto kenkuana.
Let the wicked man forsake his own way and the unrighteous man his own thoughts; let him return to the LORD, that He may have compassion, and to our God, for He will freely pardon.
8 “Ta ti panunotko ket saan a kas iti panunotmo, kasta met a dagiti wagasmo ket saanko a wagas—kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh—
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways,”
9 ta no kasano a nangatngato dagiti langit ngem ti daga, kasta met a nangatngato dagiti wagasko ngem dagiti wagasmo, ken dagiti kapanunotak ngem dagiti kapanunotam.
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so My ways are higher than your ways and My thoughts than your thoughts.
10 Ta no kasano nga agtinnag ti tudo ken niebe manipud langit ket saan nga agsubli sadiay no di ket sibuganda ti daga ket pagtuboenda ti bukel a lumangto ket mangipaay iti bukel kadagiti agmulmula ken tinapay kadagiti mangmangan,
For just as rain and snow fall from heaven and do not return without watering the earth, making it bud and sprout, and providing seed to sow and food to eat,
11 kastanto met ti sao a rummuar iti ngiwatko: saan daytoy nga agsubli kaniak nga awan serserbina, ngem tungpalen daytoy ti tarigagayko, ken agballiginto daytoy iti nangibaonak.
so My word that proceeds from My mouth will not return to Me empty, but it will accomplish what I please, and it will prosper where I send it.
12 Ta rummuarkayonto nga addaan rag-o ken maiturongkayonto a sitatalna; agpukkawto a sirarag-o dagiti bantay ken dagiti turod iti sangoananyo, ken agpalakpakto dagiti ima dagiti amin a kayo iti tay-ak.
You will indeed go out with joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and hills will burst into song before you, and all the trees of the field will clap their hands.
13 Imbes a dagiti sisiitan, agtubonto dagiti kayo; ken imbes a dagiti kalkalunay, agtubonto dagiti kayo nga arrayan, ket maipaayto daytoy kenni Yahweh, para iti naganna, a kas agnanayon a pagilasinan a saanto a mapukaw.”
Instead of the thornbush, a cypress will grow, and instead of the brier, a myrtle will spring up; they will make a name for the LORD, an everlasting sign, never to be destroyed.”
