< Isaias 58 >

1 “Agpukkawka iti napigsa, saanka nga agsarsardeng, agpukkawka iti napigsa kas iti trumpeta, tubngarem dagiti tattaok iti panagsukirda, ken ti balay ni Jacob kadagiti basolda.
Cry aloud, and spare not; lift up thy voice as with a trumpet, and declare to my people their sins, and to the house of Jacob their iniquities.
2 Nu pay kasta, inaldaw a birbirokendak ken naragsakda iti pannakaammo kadagiti wagasko, a kas iti maysa a nasion a nagaramid iti kinalinteg ket saanda a binaybay-an ti linteg ti Diosda. Agkiddawda kaniak iti nalinteg a panangukom; agrag-oda iti iyaasideg ti Dios.
They seek me day by day, and desire to know my ways, as a people that had done righteousness, and had not forsaken the judgment of their God: they now ask of me righteous judgment, and desire to draw nigh to God,
3 ‘Ania ti serbi iti panagayunarmi,' kunada, ‘no saanmo met a makita? Ania ti serbi ti panagpakumbabami, no saanmo met nga ikaskaso?’ Kitaenyo, iti aldaw ti panagayunaryo birbirokenyo ti bukodyo a pakaragsakan ken idaddanesyo dagiti amin a trabahadoryo.
saying, Why have we fasted, and thou regardest not? [why] have we afflicted our souls, and thou didst not know it? Nay, in the days of your fasts ye find your pleasures, and all them that are under your power ye wound.
4 Kitaenyo, agayunarkayo tapno agaapa ken agkikinabilkayo, ken tapno kumabil babaen iti gemgem ti kinadangkes; saankayo nga agay-ayunar ita tapno maipangag ti timekyo idiay langit.
If ye fast for quarrels and strifes, and smite the lowly with [your] fists, wherefore do ye fast to me as [ye do] this day, so that your voice may be heard in crying?
5 Kastoy kadi a kita ti panagayunar ti kayatko: Aldaw para iti siasinoman a mangipakumbaba iti bagina, tapno idumogna ti ulona a kas runo, ken tapno mangiyaplag iti nakersang a lupot ken mangiwarakiwak iti dapu iti pagidaanna? Kastoy kadi ti aw-awaganyo a panagayunar, aldaw a makaay-ayo kenni Yahweh?
I have not chosen this fast, nor [such] a day for a man to afflict his soul; neither though thou shouldest bend down thy neck as a ring, and spread under thee sackcloth and ashes, neither thus shall ye call a fast acceptable.
6 Saan aya a kastoy ti pinilik a panagayunar: Ti panangikkatyo kadagiti kawar ti panangidadanes, ti panangwarwaryo kadagiti tali ti sangol, ti panangwayawayayo kadagiti maparparigat, ken ti panangpugsatyo iti tunggal sangol?
I have not chosen such a fast, saith the Lord; but do thou loose every burden of iniquity, do thou untie the knots of hard bargains, set the bruised free, and cancel every unjust account.
7 Saan aya a ti panangiwarasyo ti tinapayyo iti mabisin ken ti panangpasangbayyo kadagiti marigrigat ken awan balayna?” No adda makitayo a tao a lamo-lamo, rumbeng a kawesanyo, ken masapul a saanyo nga illemmengan dagiti kabagianyo.
Break thy bread to the hungry, and lead the unsheltered poor to thy house: if thou seest one naked, clothe [him], and thou shalt not disregard the relations of thine own seed.
8 Iti kasta, agraniagto ti lawagyo a kasla init iti agsapa, ken mabiitto ti panagimbagyo; umunanto kadakayo ti kinalintegyo, ken ti dayag ni Yahweh ti agbalinto a salaknibyo iti malikudanyo.
Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thy health shall speedily spring forth: and thy righteousness shall go before thee, and the glory of God shall compass thee.
9 Kalpasanna, umawagkayto, ket sumungbat ni Yahweh; agasugkayto nga agkiddaw iti tulong, ket kunaenna, “Adtoyak.” No ikkatenyo ti sangol, ti manangitudo a ramay, ken ti panagsao iti dakes,
Then shalt thou cry, and God shall hearken to thee; while thou art yet speaking he will say, Behold, I am here. If thou remove from thee the band, and the stretching forth of the hands, and murmuring speech;
10 no mangisabetkayo para kadagiti mabisin ken pennekenyo ti kasapulan dagiti nakakaasi; agraniagto ti lawagyo iti kasipngetan, ken agbalinto a kasla aldaw ti kinasipngetyo.
and [if] thou give bread to the hungry from thy heart, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall thy light spring up in darkness, and thy darkness [shall be] as noon-day:
11 Ket itultuloyto ni Yahweh ti panangidalanna kadakayo ken pennekennakayo kadagiti lugar nga awan iti danum, ken papigsaenna dagiti tulangyo. Maiyarigkayonto iti nasibogan a minuyongan, ken kas iti ubbog, a saan a matianan.
and thy God shall be with thee continually, and thou shalt be satisfied according as thy soul desires; and thy bones shall be made fat, and shall be as a well-watered garden, and as a fountain [from] which the water has not failed.
12 Bangonento dagiti dadduma kadakayo dagiti kadaanan a nadadael; ipatakderyonto dagiti nadadael iti adu a henerasion; maawagankayonto iti “Ti managtarimaan iti pader,” “Ti nangbangon manen kadagiti dalan a pagnaedan.”
And thy old waste desert [places] shall be built up, and thy foundations shall last through all generations; and thou shalt be called a repairer of breaches, and thou shalt cause thy paths between to be in peace.
13 No koma ta gawidanyo ti sakayo iti panagdaliasat iti Aldaw a Panaginana, ken isardengyo ti panangaramid iti bukodyo a pakaragsakan iti nasantoan nga aldawko. No koma ta ibilangyo a panagrag-o ti Aldaw a Panaginana, ken ibilangyo a nasantoan ken natan-ok dagiti banbanag ni Yahweh. No koma ta raraemenyo ti Aldaw a panaginana babaen iti panangibatiyo iti negosyoyo, ken babaen iti saanyo a panangbiruk iti bukodyo a pakaragsakan ken babaen iti saanyo a panangibaga kadagiti bukodyo a sasao.
If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, so as not to do thy pleasure on the holy days, and shalt call the sabbaths delightful, holy to God; [if] thou shalt not lift up thy foot to work, nor speak a word in anger out of thy mouth,
14 “Masarakanyonto ti rag-o kenni Yahweh; ket pasakayennakayto kadagiti nangato a disso iti daga; pakanennakayto manipud iti tawid ni Jacob nga amayo— ta ti ngiwat ni Yahweh ti nangisao.”
then shalt thou trust on the Lord; and he shall bring thee up to the good places of the land, and feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father: for the mouth of the Lord has spoken this.
