< Jeremias 9 >

1 No makapaadda laeng koma ti ulok iti danum, ken agbalin dagiti matak a burayok dagiti lulua! Ta kayatko koma nga agsangit iti aldaw ken rabii gapu kadagiti adda iti anak a babai dagiti tattaok, a napapatay.
“Who will provide water for my head, and a fount of tears for my eyes? And then I will weep day and night for the slain of the daughter of my people.
2 No adda laeng koma iti mangted kaniak iti lugar a pagianan dagiti agdaldaliasat idiay let-ang, a mabalinko a papanan tapno panawak dagiti tattaok. No mabalinko laeng koma ida a panawan, agsipud ta mannakikamalalada amin, bunggoy dagiti mangliliput!
Who will provide me, in the wilderness, with a lodging place along the road? And then I will forsake my people, and withdraw from them. For they are all adulterers, a union of transgressors.
3 Imbaga ni Yahweh, “Agibagbagada kadagiti palso a banbanag babaen kadagiti dilada, nga isu dagiti manangallilaw a baida, ngem saanda a nabileg iti kinapudno iti rabaw ti daga. Agtultuloy ti panagtignayda iti dinadangkes. Saandak nga am-ammo.”
And they have bent their tongue, like a bow, to send forth lies and not the truth. They have been strengthened upon the earth. And they have gone from one evil to another. But they have not known me, says the Lord.
4 Tunggal maysa kadakayo, agannadkayo iti kaarrubayo ken saankayo nga agtalek iti siasinoman a kabsat. Ta tunggal kabsat ket maysa a manangallilaw ken tunggal kaarruba ket mamarpardaya.
Let each one guard himself against his neighbor, and let him have no trust in any brother of his. For every brother will utterly overthrow, and every friend will advance deceitfully.
5 Laisen ti tunggal lalaki ti kaarrubana ken saan nga agsao iti pudno. Mangisuro dagiti dilada kadagiti makaallilaw a banbanag. Nabannogda manipud iti panagaramid iti nakaro a basol.
And a man will deride his brother, and they will not speak the truth. For they have taught their tongue to speak lies; they have labored to commit iniquity.
6 Agbibiagka iti tengnga ti panangallilaw; iti panangallilawda ket agkedkedda a mangbigbig kaniak— kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.”
Your habitation is in the midst of deceit. In their deceitfulness, they have refused to know me, says the Lord.”
7 Isu a kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin amin, “Kitaem, dandanikon ida a suboken. Sukimatek ida. Kasano pay ti rumbeng a panagtignayko para kadagiti annak a babai dagiti tattaok?
Because of this, thus says the Lord of hosts: “Behold, I will refine them, and I will test them. For what else can I do before the face of the daughter of my people?
8 Dagiti dilada ket kasla natiradan a pana; saan a pudno dagiti ibagbagada. Kadagiti ngiwatda ket iwaragawagda ti kappia kadagiti kaarrubada, ngem kadagiti pusoda ket padpadaananda ida.
Their tongue is a wounding arrow; it has spoken deceit. With his mouth, he speaks peace with his friend, and then he secretly lies in ambush for him.
9 Saan kadi a rumbeng a dusaek ida gapu kadagitoy a banbanag— kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh— ken saan kadi a rumbeng a balsek ti nasion a kas iti daytoy?
Shall I not visit upon them concerning these things, says the Lord? Or shall my soul not take vengeance on a nation of this kind?
10 Agkantaak iti kanta a panagladingit ken panagdung-aw para kadagiti banbantay, ken maikantanto ti kanta a pangdung-aw para kadagiti pagaraban. Ta napuoran dagitoy isu nga awan iti mabalin a lumasat kadagitoy. Saandanto a mangngeg ti emmak ti aniaman a baka. Pimmanaw amin dagiti billit iti tangatang ken dagiti ayup.
I will take up weeping and lamentation over the mountains, and mourning over the beautiful places in the desert. For they have been scorched because no man is passing through them. And they have not heard the voice of any occupant. From the birds of the air, even to the cattle, they have migrated and withdrawn.
11 Isu a pagbalinekto ti Jerusalem a gabsuon iti pannakadadael, a pagnaedan dagiti atap nga aso. Pagbalinek dagiti siudad ti Juda a nadadael a lugar nga awan iti agnanaed.
And I will make Jerusalem into piles of sand and into a lair for serpents. And I will make the cities of Judah desolate, so much so that there will be no inhabitant.
12 Siasino ti masirib a tao a makaawat iti daytoy? Ania ti iwaragawag kenkuana ti ngiwat ni Yahweh tapno mabalinna nga ipadamag daytoy? Apay a nadadael ti daga? Nadadael daytoy a kas iti let-ang, nga awan iti siasinoman a mabalin a lumasat iti daytoy.
Who is the wise man who understands this, and to whom a word from the mouth of the Lord may be given, so that he may announce this: why the land has perished, and has been scorched like a desert, so much so that no one passes through it?”
13 Kuna ni Yahweh, “Daytoy ket gapu ta tinallikudanda dagiti lintegko nga intedko a tungpalenda, gapu ta saanda a dumngeg iti timekko wenno agbiag babaen iti daytoy.
And the Lord said: “It is because they have abandoned my law, which I gave to them, and they have not listened to my voice, and they have not walked by it.
14 Daytoy ket gapu ta nagbiagda a sinurotda dagiti nasukir a pusoda ken nagdayawda kadagiti Baal a kas insuro kadakuada dagiti ammada nga aramidenda.
And they have gone after the depravity of their own heart, and after Baal, which they learned from their fathers.”
15 Isu a kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin amin a Dios ti Israel, 'Kitaem, dandanikon pakanen dagitoy a tattao iti ajenjo ken painumen iti nasabidongan a danum.
For this reason, thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: “Behold, I will feed this people with absinthe, and I will give them the water of gall to drink.
16 Kalpasanna, iwaraskonto ida kadagiti nasion a saanda nga ammo, saanda nga ammo ken saan met nga ammo dagiti kapuonanda. Mangibaonakto iti kampilan a mangkamat kadakuada agingga a madadaelko ida a naan-anay.”
And I will disperse them among nations, which they and their fathers have not known. And I will send the sword after them, until they are consumed.”
17 Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin amin, “Panunotenyo ti maipapan iti daytoy: Mangayabkayo kadagiti kumakanta iti pangdung-aw; paumayenyo ida. Mangibaonkayo iti mapan mangayab kadagiti babbai a nalaing nga agdung-aw; paumayenyo ida.
Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: “Consider and call upon the women mourners, and let them approach. And send to those women who are wise, and let them hurry.
18 Apuraenyo ida ket agkantada iti naladingit a kanta kadatayo, tapno agtedted dagiti lua kadagiti matatayo ken agayus ti danum kadagiti kalub iti matatayo.
‘Let them hasten to take up a lamentation over us. Let our eyes shed tears, and our eyelids run with water.’
19 Ta ti ikkis ti panagdung-aw ket mangngeg idiay Zion, 'No kasano a nadadaeltayo. Naibabaintayo iti napalalo, ta pinanawantayo ti daga agsipud ta rinebbada dagiti babbalaytayo.'
For a voice of lamentation has been heard from Zion: ‘How is it that we have been devastated and greatly confounded? Our tabernacles have been thrown down because we have forsaken the land.’”
20 Isu a dakayo a babbai, denggenyo ti sao ni Yahweh; ipangagyo dagiti mensahe nga aggapu iti ngiwatna. Kalpasanna, suroanyo dagiti annakyo a babbai iti naladingit a kanta, ken pangdung-aw a kanta iti tunggal kaarruba a babai.
“Therefore, listen, O women, to the word of the Lord! And let your ears take up the word of his mouth. And teach your daughters to lament. And let each one teach her neighbor to mourn:
21 Ta simrek ti patay kadagiti tawatayo; umuneg daytoy kadagiti palasiotayo. Dadaelenna daytoy dagiti ubbing iti ruar, ken dagiti agtutubo kadagiti kalkalsada ti siudad.
‘For death has climbed through our windows. It has entered our houses to perish the little children from the outdoors, the youths from the streets.’”
22 Ipakaammom daytoy, 'Kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh— dagiti bangkay dagiti lallaki ket maiwara a kasla rugit kadagiti tay-ak, ken kasla garami a nabati kalpasan dagiti agan-ani, ket awanto ti siasinoman a mangurnong kadakuada.'”
“Speak: Thus says the Lord: And the corpses of men will fall like manure over the face of the countryside, and like hay behind the back of the reaper, and there will be no one to gather it.”
23 Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, “Saan koma ipannakkel ti nasirib a tao ti kinasiribna, wenno ti mannakigubat ti bilegna. Saan koma ipannakkel ti nabaknang a tao iti kinabaknangna.
Thus says the Lord: “The wise man should not glory in his wisdom, and the strong man should not glory in his strength, and the rich man should not glory in his riches.
24 Ta no ipannakkel ti maysa a tao iti aniaman a banag, daytoy koma ti ipannakkelna, ti pannakaaddana iti kinasaririt ken pannakaammo kaniak. Ta siak ni Yahweh, nga agtigtignay nga addaan iti kinapudno iti tulag, hustisia ken kinalinteg iti daga. Ta daytoy dagiti pakaragsakak— kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.”
But he who glories should glory in this: to know me and to know me well. For I am the Lord, who accomplishes mercy and judgment and justice upon the earth. For these things are pleasing to me, says the Lord.
25 “Kitaem, umadanin dagiti aldaw— kastoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh— inton dusaek amin dagiti nakugit nga iti laeng bagida.
Behold, the days are approaching, says the Lord, when I will visit upon all who are uncircumcised:
26 Dusaekto ti Egipto ken ti Juda, ti Edom, dagiti tattao ti Ammon, ti Moab, ken dagiti amin a tattao a mangpukpukis kadagiti buokda, nga agnanaed idiay disierto. Ta amin dagitoy a nasion ket saan a nakugit, ken amin dagiti balay ti Israel ket addaan iti saan a nakugit a puso.”
upon Egypt, and upon Judah, and upon Edom, and upon the sons of Ammon, and upon Moab, and upon all who have shaved off their hair, living in the desert. For all the nations are uncircumcised in body, but all the house of Israel is uncircumcised in heart.”
