< Jeremias 22 >

1 Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, “Sumalogka iti balay ti ari iti Juda ket iwaragawagmo daytoy a sao sadiay.
Thus said Jehovah: Go down to the house of the king of Judah, and there speak these words.
2 Kunaem, 'Ari ti Juda, sika a nakatugaw iti trono ni David, dumngegka iti sao ni Yahweh. Ket dakayo nga ad-adipenna, ken dakayo a tattaona a sumsumrek kadagitoy a ruangan dumngegkayo.
Hear the word of Jehovah, thou king of Judah, That sittest upon the throne of David, Thou, and thy servants, and thy people, Who go in and out through these gates!
3 Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, “Agaramidkayo iti maiparbeng ken kinalinteg, ket siasinoman a natakawan - ispalenyo isuna manipud iti ima ti manangidadanes. Saanyo a pagaramidan iti dakes ti siasinoman a ganggannaet iti dagayo, wenno siasinoman nga ulila, wenno balo. Saankayo nga agaramid iti kinaranggas wenno mangpasayasay iti dara ti awan basolna iti daytoy a lugar.
Thus saith Jehovah: Do justice and righteousness; Deliver the spoiled out of the hand of the oppressor; To the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow Do no wrong, do no violence, And shed no innocent blood in this place!
4 Ta no pudno nga aramidenyo dagitoy a banbanag, dagiti ar-ari a nakatugaw iti trono ni David ket sumrekto kadagiti ruangan daytoy a balay a nakasakay iti karuwahe ken kadagiti kabalio. Isuna, dagiti adipenna, ken dagiti tattaona!
For if ye shall do this, Then shall there enter in through the gates of this house Kings, who shall sit upon the throne of David, Riding in chariots and upon horses, Each one with his servants and his people.
5 Ngem no saankayo a dumngeg kadagitoy a sasao a naggapu kaniak nga inwaragawagko - daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh - madadaelto ngarud daytoy a palasio.
But if ye will not hearken to these words, By myself do I swear, saith Jehovah, That this house shall become a desolation.
6 Ta kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh maipanggep iti palasio ti ari iti Juda, “Maiyarigka kaniak iti Galaad, wenno iti tuktok ti Lebanon. Nupay kasta, pagbalinenkanto a let-ang, kadagiti siudad nga awan iti agnanaed.
For thus saith Jehovah to the house of the king of Judah: Gilead art thou to me, yea, the summit of Lebanon; Yet will I make thee a desert, As cities not inhabited.
7 Ta nangdutokak kadagiti umay mangdadael kenka! Pukawento dagiti lallaki a nagtagiigam dagiti kasasayaatan a sedrom ket bay-andanto dagitoy a matumba iti apuy.
I will appoint against thee destroyers, Every one with his weapons; And they shall cut down thy choice cedars, And cast them into the fire.
8 Ket adu a nasion ti lumabasto iti daytoy a siudad. Kunaento ti tunggal tao iti kaabayna, “Apay nga inaramid ni Yahweh ti kastoy iti daytoy a naindaklan a siudad?”
And many nations shall pass by this city, And they shall say one to another, “Wherefore hath Jehovah done thus to this great city?”
9 Ket sumungbatto ti met ti maysa, “Gapu ta tinallikudanda ti tulag ni Yahweh a Diosda ket nagrukbabda kadagiti dadduma a dios ken nagdaydayawda kadakuada.”
Then shall they answer: “Because they forsook the covenant of Jehovah their God, And worshipped strange gods, And served them.”
10 Saanyo a sangitan ti natay. Saanyo a dung-awan isuna. Ngem rumbeng a sangitanyo ti siasinoman a maipanaw a kas balud, ta saanton nga agsubli ket saannanton a makita pay ti daga a nakaiyanakanna.'
Weep not for him that is dead, Make no lamentation for him! Weep, weep ye for him who is gone away; For he shall return no more, Nor see his native land!
11 Ta kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh maipapan kenni Jehoahaz a lalaki a putot ni Josias nga ari iti Juda, a nagserbi a kas ari a simmukat kenni ni Josias nga amana, 'Pimmanawen iti daytoy a disso ket saanen nga agsubli pay.
For thus saith Jehovah Concerning Shallum, the son of Josiah, king of Judah, Who reigned instead of Josiah his father, Who went forth from this place: He shall return to it no more;
12 Matayto isuna iti daydiay a lugar a nangipananda kenkuana a kas balud ket saannanton a pulos a makita pay daytoy a daga.'
But in the place whither they have led him captive shall he die, And shall see this land no more.
13 Asi pay ti siasinoman a mangipatakder iti balayna iti kinakillo ken kadagti akinngato a siledna iti saan a maiparbeng nga aramid; kenkuana a nagtrabahoan dagiti dadduma, ngem saanna ida a tangdanan.
Woe to him that buildeth his house with injustice, And his upper apartments with wrong; That exacteth a man's service without wages, And giveth him no recompense!
14 Asi pay ti siaqsinoman nga agkuna, 'Mangipatakderak iti nangato a balay a maipaay kaniak ken nalawa nga akinngato a silsiled, ken mangaramid pay kadagiti nalawa a tawtawa a maipaay kenkuana, ken mabobedaan iti sedro ken pintaanna amin iti nalabaga.'
That saith, “I will build me a large house, And spacious apartments,” And that cutteth out windows, And ceileth it with cedar, And painteth it with vermilion!
15 Daytoy kadi iti mamagbalin kenka a nasayaat nga ari, ta kayatmo ti maaddaan iti sedro a pagnaedan? Saan kadi a nangan ken imminum met ti amam, nupay kasta, inaramidna ti maiparbeng ken kinalinteg? Ket nasayaat dagiti banbanag a napasamak kenkuana.
Shalt thou reign because thou rivallest others in cedar? Did not thy father eat and drink? Yet he had regard to justice and equity; Therefore it was well, with him.
16 Insakitna dagiti napanglaw ken dagiti agkasapulan. Nasayaat ti pasamak idi. Saan kadi a kastoy ti kayatna a sawen iti pannakaam-ammo kaniak? — daytoy ket pakaammo ni Yahweh.
He maintained the cause of the poor and needy; Then was it well with him; Was not this to know me, saith Jehovah?
17 Ngem awanen sabali pay nga adda kadagita matam ken pusom no di laeng ti panagagummo ken ti panangpasayasaymo iti dara dagiti awan basolna, iti panangirurumen ken panangranggas iti dadduma a tattao.
But thine eyes and thy heart are only upon thine own gain, And the shedding of innocent blood, And deeds of violence and oppression.
18 Isu a kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh maipapan kenni Jehoiakim a putot a lalaki ni Josias nga ari iti Juda: Saandanto nga agdung-aw gapu kenkuana a kunada 'Asika pay, kabsatko a lalaki!” wenno “Asika pay, kabsatko a babai!” Saandanto a dung-awan isuna iti 'Asika pay, nga apo!' wenno 'Asika pay, a madaydayaw!'
Therefore thus saith Jehovah, Concerning Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, king of Judah: They shall not lament for him, saying, “Alas, my brother!” or, “Alas, sister!” They shall not lament for him, saying, “Alas, lord!” or, “Alas, his glory!”
19 Maitanemto isuna a kas iti pannakaitanem ti maysa nga asno, maiparangguyod ken maiwalang iti ruar dagiti ruangan ti Jerusalem.
With the burial of an ass shall he be buried, Dragged along and cast forth beyond the gates of Jerusalem.
20 Sumang-atka kadagiti banbantay iti Lebanon ket agpukkawka. Iriawmo ti timekmo idiay Basan. Agpukkawka manipud kadagiti banbantay ti Abarim, ta madadaelto dagiti amin a gagayyemmo.
Go thou up to Lebanon and cry, [[O Jerusalem!]] And upon Bashan lift up thy voice; Cry aloud from Abarim! For all thy lovers are fallen.
21 Nakisaoak kenka idi natalgedka, ngem kinunam, 'Saanakto a dumngeg.' Ta daytoy ti kababalinmo manipud kinaubingmo, ta saanka a dimngeg iti timekko.
I spake to thee in thy prosperity, But thou saidst, “I will not hear.” This hath been thy manner from thy youth; Thou hast not obeyed my voice.
22 Itayabto ti angin dagiti amin a mangipaspastormo, ken maipanawto a kas balud dagiti gagayyemmmo. Ket pudno unay a mabainankanto ken maibabakanto gapu kadagiti amin a dakes nga inar-aramidmo.
The wind shall consume all thy shepherds, And thy lovers shall go into captivity; Then shalt thou be ashamed And confounded for all thy wickedness.
23 Sika nga ari, sika nga agnanaed iti Balay iti Kabakiran ti Lebanon, sika nga agum-umok kadagiti sedro, anian a nakakaasikanto inton dumteng kenka ti kasta unay a panagrigat a kas iti ut-ot ti panagpasikal.”
O thou that dwellest in Lebanon, That makest thy nest in cedars, How wretched shalt thou be, when anguish cometh upon thee, Pain, as of a woman in travail!
24 “Isapatak— daytoy ket kuna ni Yahweh—uray no sika, Jehoiachin a putot a lalaki ni Jehoiakim, nga ari ti Juda, ti singsing a pangselio nga adda iti makannawan nga imak, lapsutenka iti imak.
As I live, saith Jehovah, Thou Coniah, son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, Though thou wert the signet upon my right hand, Even thence would I pluck thee!
25 Ta naiyawatka iti ima dagiti aggangandat iti biagmo ken kadagiti pagbutbutngam, iti ima ni Nebucadnesar nga ari iti Babilonia ken kadagiti Caldeo.
And I will give thee into the hand of them that seek thy life, And into the hand of them that thou fearest, Even into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, And into the hand of the Chaldaeans.
26 Ibellengkanto ken ti inam a nangiyanak kenka, iti daga a saanyo a nakaiyanakan. Sadiayto ti pakatayanyo.
And I will cast thee forth, And thy mother that bore thee, Into a foreign land, Where ye were not born; And there shall ye die.
27 Ket no maipapan iti daytoy a daga a kayatdanto a pagsublian, saandanton a makasubli ditoy.
To the land to which they desire to return, Thither shall they not return.
28 Daytoy kadi ket nauy-uyaw ken naburak a pagkargaan? Daytoy kadi a lalaki a ni Jehoiachin ket maysa a banga nga awan iti maay-ayona? Apay nga imbellengda isuna ken dagiti kaputotanna, ken impurruakda ida iti daga a saanda nga ammo?
“Is then this man Coniah a contemptible broken vessel? Is he a vessel which no man careth for? Wherefore are he and his offspring cast forth, And thrown into a land which they know not?”
29 Daga, Daga, Daga! Denggem ti sao ni Yahweh!
O land, land, land, hear the word of Jehovah!
30 Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh, 'Isuratyo ti maipapan iti daytoy a lalaki a ni Jehoiachin: Awanto iti putotna. Saanto a rumang-ay kadagiti al-aldawna, ta awanto ti siasinoman kadagiti kaputotanna ti makagun-od iti panagballigi wenno agtugaw manen iti trono ni David ken agturay iti Juda.'”
Thus saith Jehovah: Write ye this man childless, A man that shall not be prosperous through his life; For none of his offspring shall prosper, So as to sit on the throne of David, And reign hereafter in Judah.
