Isaias 32
Magandang Balita Biblia
Ang Matuwid na Hari
32 Makikita ninyo, may haring mamamahala nang matuwid,
at mga pinunong magpapairal ng katarungan.
2 Sila'y magiging kanlungan sa malakas na hangin
at pananggalang sa nagngangalit na bagyo;
ang katulad nila'y batis sa tuyong lupain,
parang malaking batong kublihan sa disyerto!
3 Mabubuksan ang kanilang mga mata at tainga
sa pangangailangan ng mga tao.
4 Magiging matiyaga na sila at maunawain sa bawat kilos,
magiging matapat sila sa kanilang sasabihin.
5 Ang mga hangal ay hindi na tatawaging dakila;
o kaya'y sasabihing tapat ang mga sinungaling.
6 Ang sinasabi ng mangmang ay puro kamangmangan,
at puro kasamaan ang kanyang iniisip;
paglapastangan kay Yahweh ang ginagawa niya't sinasabi.
Minsan ma'y hindi siya nagpakain ng nagugutom
o nagpainom ng nauuhaw.
7 Masama ang gawain ng taong hangal.
Ipinapahamak nila ang mahihirap sa pamamagitan ng kasinungalingan,
at gumagawa ng paraan upang hindi pakinabangan ang kanilang karapatan.
8 Ngunit ang taong marangal ay gumagawa ng tapat,
at naninindigan sa kung ano ang tama.
Paghatol at Pagpapanumbalik
9 Kayong mga babaing pabaya,
pakinggan ninyo ang aking sasabihin.
10 Pagkalipas ng isang taon
mabibigo na kayo,
sapagkat wala na kayong mapipitas na bunga ng ubas.
11 Manginig kayo sapagkat matagal kayong nagpabaya
at nagwalang bahala.
Maghubad kayo ng inyong kasuotan,
at magsuot ng damit-panluksa.
12 Dagukan ninyo ang inyong dibdib sa kalungkutan
sapagkat wasak na ang masaganang bukirin at ang mabunga ninyong ubasan.
13 Tinubuan na ito ng mga tinik at dawag.
Tangisan ninyo ang dating masasayang tahanan,
at lunsod na noo'y puno ng kagalakan.
14 Pati ang palasyo ay pababayaan
at ang pangunahing-lunsod ay mawawalan ng tao.
Ang mga burol at tore ay guguho;
ang lupain ay magiging tirahan ng maiilap na asno
at pastulan ng mga tupa.
15 Ngunit minsan pang ibubuhos sa atin ang espiritu ng Diyos.
Ang disyerto ay magiging matabang lupa
at ang bukirin ay pag-aanihan nang sagana.
16 Ang katarungan at katuwiran
ay maghahari sa buong lupain.
17 Ang bunga ng katuwiran ay kapayapaan;
at ito'y magdudulot ng katahimikan at pagtitiwala magpakailanman.
18 Ang bayan ng Diyos ay mamumuhay sa isang payapa,
ligtas, at tahimik na pamayanan.
19 Kahit pa umulan ng yelo sa kagubatan
at mapatag ang kabundukan.
20 Magiging maligaya ang lahat dahil sa saganang tubig para sa mga pananim
at malawak na pastulan ng mga baka at asno.
Isaiah 32
New King James Version
A Reign of Righteousness
32 Behold, (A)a king will reign in righteousness,
And princes will rule with justice.
2 A man will be as a hiding place from the wind,
And (B)a [a]cover from the tempest,
As rivers of water in a dry place,
As the shadow of a great rock in a weary land.
3 (C)The eyes of those who see will not be dim,
And the ears of those who hear will listen.
4 Also the heart of the [b]rash will (D)understand knowledge,
And the tongue of the stammerers will be ready to speak plainly.
5 The foolish person will no longer be called [c]generous,
Nor the miser said to be bountiful;
6 For the foolish person will speak foolishness,
And his heart will work (E)iniquity:
To practice ungodliness,
To utter error against the Lord,
To keep the hungry unsatisfied,
And he will cause the drink of the thirsty to fail.
7 Also the schemes of the schemer are evil;
He devises wicked plans
To destroy the poor with (F)lying words,
Even when the needy speaks justice.
8 But a [d]generous man devises generous things,
And by generosity he shall stand.
Consequences of Complacency
9 Rise up, you women (G)who are at ease,
Hear my voice;
You complacent daughters,
Give ear to my speech.
10 In a year and some days
You will be troubled, you complacent women;
For the vintage will fail,
The gathering will not come.
11 Tremble, you women who are at ease;
Be troubled, you complacent ones;
Strip yourselves, make yourselves bare,
And gird sackcloth on your waists.
12 People shall mourn upon their breasts
For the pleasant fields, for the fruitful vine.
13 (H)On the land of my people will come up thorns and briers,
Yes, on all the happy homes in (I)the joyous city;
14 (J)Because the palaces will be forsaken,
The bustling city will be deserted.
The forts and towers will become lairs forever,
A joy of wild donkeys, a pasture of flocks—
15 Until (K)the Spirit is poured upon us from on high,
And (L)the wilderness becomes a fruitful field,
And the fruitful field is counted as a forest.
The Peace of God’s Reign
16 Then justice will dwell in the wilderness,
And righteousness remain in the fruitful field.
17 (M)The work of righteousness will be peace,
And the effect of righteousness, quietness and assurance forever.
18 My people will dwell in a peaceful habitation,
In secure dwellings, and in quiet (N)resting places,
19 (O)Though hail comes down (P)on the forest,
And the city is brought low in humiliation.
20 Blessed are you who sow beside all waters,
Who send out freely the feet of (Q)the ox and the donkey.
