Isaias 50
Magandang Balita Biblia
50 Sinabi(A) ni Yahweh:
“Pinalayas ko ba ang aking bayan,
tulad ng isang lalaking pinalayas at hiniwalayan ang kanyang asawa?
Kung gayon, nasaan ang kasulatan ng ating paghihiwalay?
Pinagtaksilan ko ba kayo para maging bihag,
tulad ng amang nagbenta ng anak upang maging alipin?
Hindi! Nabihag kayo dahil sa inyong kasalanan,
itinapon kayo dahil sa inyong kasamaan.
2 Bakit ang bayan ko'y hindi kumilos
nang sila'y lapitan ko para iligtas?
Nang ako'y tumawag isa ma'y walang sumagot.
Bakit? Wala ba akong lakas para iligtas sila?
Kaya kong tuyuin ang dagat sa isang salita lamang.
Magagawa kong disyerto ang ilog
upang mamatay sa uhaw ang mga isda roon.
3 Ang bughaw na langit ay magagawa kong
kasing-itim ng damit-panluksa.”
Ang Pagsunod ng Lingkod ni Yahweh
4 Ang Panginoong Yahweh ang nagturo sa akin ng aking sasabihin,
para tulungan ang mahihina.
Tuwing umaga'y nananabik akong malaman
kung ano ang ituturo niya sa akin.
5 Binigyan ako ng Panginoong Yahweh ng pang-unawa,
hindi ako naghimagsik
o tumalikod sa kanya.
6 Hindi(B) ako gumanti nang bugbugin nila ako,
hindi ako kumibo nang insultuhin nila ako.
Pinabayaan ko silang bunutin ang aking balbas
at luraan ang aking mukha.
7 Hindi ko pinansin ang mga pag-insultong ginawa nila sa akin,
sapagkat ang Panginoong Yahweh ang tumutulong sa akin.
Handa akong magtiis,
sapagkat aking nalalaman na ako'y hindi mapapahiya.
8 Ang(C) Diyos ay malapit,
at siya ang magpapatunay na wala akong sala.
May mangangahas bang ako'y usigin?
Magharap kami sa hukuman,
at ilahad ang kanyang paratang.
9 Ang Panginoong Yahweh mismo ang magtatanggol sa akin.
Sino ang makapagpapatunay na ako ay may sala?
Mawawalang lahat ang nagbibintang sa akin,
tulad ng damit na nginatngat ng insekto.
10 Kayong lahat na may paggalang kay Yahweh,
at sumusunod sa utos ng kanyang lingkod,
maaaring ang landas ninyo ay maging madilim,
gayunma'y magtiwala kayo at umasa
sa kapangyarihan ng Diyos na si Yahweh.
11 Kayo namang nagbabalak magpahamak sa iba
ang siyang magdurusa sa inyong binabalak.
Kahabag-habag ang sasapitin ninyo
sapagkat si Yahweh ang gagawa nito.
Isaiah 50
King James Version
50 Thus saith the Lord, Where is the bill of your mother's divorcement, whom I have put away? or which of my creditors is it to whom I have sold you? Behold, for your iniquities have ye sold yourselves, and for your transgressions is your mother put away.
2 Wherefore, when I came, was there no man? when I called, was there none to answer? Is my hand shortened at all, that it cannot redeem? or have I no power to deliver? behold, at my rebuke I dry up the sea, I make the rivers a wilderness: their fish stinketh, because there is no water, and dieth for thirst.
3 I clothe the heavens with blackness, and I make sackcloth their covering.
4 The Lord God hath given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to him that is weary: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned.
5 The Lord God hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away back.
6 I gave my back to the smiters, and my cheeks to them that plucked off the hair: I hid not my face from shame and spitting.
7 For the Lord God will help me; therefore shall I not be confounded: therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed.
8 He is near that justifieth me; who will contend with me? let us stand together: who is mine adversary? let him come near to me.
9 Behold, the Lord God will help me; who is he that shall condemn me? lo, they all shall wax old as a garment; the moth shall eat them up.
10 Who is among you that feareth the Lord, that obeyeth the voice of his servant, that walketh in darkness, and hath no light? let him trust in the name of the Lord, and stay upon his God.
11 Behold, all ye that kindle a fire, that compass yourselves about with sparks: walk in the light of your fire, and in the sparks that ye have kindled. This shall ye have of mine hand; ye shall lie down in sorrow.
Isaiah 50
New King James Version
The Servant, Israel’s Hope
50 Thus says the Lord:
“Where is (A)the certificate of your mother’s divorce,
Whom I have put away?
Or which of My (B)creditors is it to whom I have sold you?
For your iniquities (C)you have sold yourselves,
And for your transgressions your mother has been put away.
2 Why, when I came, was there no man?
Why, when I called, was there none to answer?
Is My hand shortened at all that it cannot redeem?
Or have I no power to deliver?
Indeed with My (D)rebuke I dry up the sea,
I make the rivers a wilderness;
Their fish stink because there is no water,
And die of thirst.
3 (E)I clothe the heavens with blackness,
(F)And I make sackcloth their covering.”
4 “The(G) Lord God has given Me
The tongue of the learned,
That I should know how to speak
A word in season to him who is (H)weary.
He awakens Me morning by morning,
He awakens My ear
To hear as the learned.
5 The Lord God (I)has opened My ear;
And I was not (J)rebellious,
Nor did I turn away.
6 (K)I gave My back to those who struck Me,
And (L)My cheeks to those who plucked out the beard;
I did not hide My face from shame and (M)spitting.
7 “For the Lord God will help Me;
Therefore I will not be disgraced;
Therefore (N)I have set My face like a flint,
And I know that I will not be ashamed.
8 (O)He is near who justifies Me;
Who will contend with Me?
Let us stand together.
Who is [a]My adversary?
Let him come near Me.
9 Surely the Lord God will help Me;
Who is he who will condemn Me?
(P)Indeed they will all grow old like a garment;
(Q)The moth will eat them up.
10 “Who among you fears the Lord?
Who obeys the voice of His Servant?
Who (R)walks in darkness
And has no light?
(S)Let him trust in the name of the Lord
And rely upon his God.
11 Look, all you who kindle a fire,
Who encircle yourselves with sparks:
Walk in the light of your fire and in the sparks you have kindled—
(T)This you shall have from My hand:
You shall lie down (U)in torment.
