Isaias 8
Magandang Balita Biblia (with Deuterocanon)
Babala at Pag-asa
8 Sinabi sa akin ni Yahweh, “Kumuha ka ng isang malapad na tapyas ng bato at isulat mo sa malalaking letra ang mga sumusunod: ‘Kay Maher-salal-has-baz.’[a] 2 Ikuha mo ako ng dalawang saksing mapagkakatiwalaan: ang paring si Urias at si Zacarias na anak ni Jeberequias.”
3 Sinipingan ko ang aking asawa. Siya'y naglihi at nanganak ng isang lalaki. At sinabi sa akin ni Yahweh: “Ang ipangalan mo sa kanya'y Maher-salal-has-baz. 4 Sapagkat bago pa siya matutong tumawag ng ‘Tatay’ o ‘Nanay,’ ang kayamanan ng Damasco at ang mga nasamsam ng Samaria ay dadalhin ng hari ng Asiria.”
5 Sinabi pa sa akin ni Yahweh:
6 “Sapagkat tinanggihan ng bayang ito ang tubig ng Siloe na umaagos nang banayad,
at nangangatog[b] sila sa harapan ni Rezin, at ng anak ni Remalias;
7 ipadadala sa kanila ng Panginoon ang hari ng Asiria at ang kanyang mga hukbo,
na lulusob tulad ng malakas na agos ng Ilog Eufrates.
8 Parang baha ito na aagos sa Juda,
tataas ang tubig nang hanggang leeg, at lalaganap ito sa buong lupain mo, O Emmanuel.”
9 Magsama-sama man kayo mga bansa ay mawawasak din kayo!
Makinig kayo, mga bansang nasa malalayong dako.
Maghanda man kayo sa pakikipaglaban ay matatakot din kayo.
10 Magplano man kayo, tiyak na kayo'y mabibigo;
magpulong man kayo, wala ring mangyayari,
sapagkat ang Diyos ay kasama namin.
Binalaan ni Yahweh ang Propeta
11 Sa pamamagitan ng kanyang dakilang kapangyarihan, binalaan ako ni Yahweh
na huwag kong sundan ang mga landas na dinadaanan ng mga taong ito.
12 Sinabi(A) niya, “Huwag kayong maniwala sa sabwatan na sinasabi ng bansang ito;
huwag kayong matakot sa kanilang kinatatakutan.
13 Ngunit si Yahweh, ang Makapangyarihan sa lahat, ang dapat ninyong kilalanin bilang Banal.
Siya ang dapat ninyong igalang at dapat katakutan.
14 Sa(B) dalawang kaharian ng Israel,
siya'y magiging isang santuwaryo, isang batong katitisuran;
bitag at patibong para sa mga naninirahan sa Jerusalem.
15 Dahil sa kanya, marami ang babagsak, mabubuwal at masusugatan;
marami rin ang masisilo at mahuhulog sa bitag.”
Babala Laban sa Pagsangguni sa Patay
16 Ingatan mo at pagtibayin ang mensaheng ito para sa aking mga alagad.
17 Maghihintay(C) ako kay Yahweh na tumalikod sa sambahayan ni Jacob;
at sa kanya ako aasa.
18 Ako(D) at ang mga anak na kaloob sa akin ni Yahweh
ay palatandaan at sagisag sa Israel,
mula kay Yahweh na Makapangyarihan sa lahat na naninirahan sa Bundok ng Zion.
19 Kapag may nagsabi sa inyo: “Sumangguni kayo sa mga espiritu ng namatay at sa mga manghuhula.
Hindi ba dapat sumangguni ang mga tao sa kanilang diyos at patay para sa mga buháy?”
20 Ganito ang inyong isasagot, “Nasa inyo ang aral at tagubilin ng Diyos!
Huwag kayong makikinig sa mga sumasangguni sa espiritu,
ipapahamak lang kayo ng mga iyon.”
Panahon ng Kaguluhan
21 Maglalakbay sila sa lupain na pagod na pagod at gutom na gutom,
magwawala sila dahil sa gutom at susumpain ang kanilang hari at ang kanilang diyos.
Titingala sila sa langit
22 at igagala nila ang kanilang mata sa lupa,
ngunit wala silang makikita kundi kaguluhan at kadiliman;
isang nakakatakot na kadiliman kung saan sila itatapon.

Isaiah and His Children as Signs
8 The Lord said to me, “Take a large scroll(A) and write on it with an ordinary pen: Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz.”[a](B) 2 So I called in Uriah(C) the priest and Zechariah son of Jeberekiah as reliable witnesses(D) for me. 3 Then I made love to the prophetess,(E) and she conceived and gave birth to a son.(F) And the Lord said to me, “Name him Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz.(G) 4 For before the boy knows(H) how to say ‘My father’ or ‘My mother,’ the wealth of Damascus(I) and the plunder of Samaria will be carried off by the king of Assyria.(J)”
5 The Lord spoke to me again:
6 “Because this people has rejected(K)
the gently flowing waters of Shiloah(L)
and rejoices over Rezin
and the son of Remaliah,(M)
7 therefore the Lord is about to bring against them
the mighty floodwaters(N) of the Euphrates—
the king of Assyria(O) with all his pomp.(P)
It will overflow all its channels,
run over all its banks(Q)
8 and sweep on into Judah, swirling over it,(R)
passing through it and reaching up to the neck.
Its outspread wings(S) will cover the breadth of your land,
Immanuel[b]!”(T)
9 Raise the war cry,[c](U) you nations, and be shattered!(V)
Listen, all you distant lands.
Prepare(W) for battle, and be shattered!
Prepare for battle, and be shattered!
10 Devise your strategy, but it will be thwarted;(X)
propose your plan, but it will not stand,(Y)
for God is with us.[d](Z)
11 This is what the Lord says to me with his strong hand upon me,(AA) warning me not to follow(AB) the way of this people:
12 “Do not call conspiracy(AC)
everything this people calls a conspiracy;
do not fear what they fear,(AD)
and do not dread it.(AE)
13 The Lord Almighty is the one you are to regard as holy,(AF)
he is the one you are to fear,(AG)
he is the one you are to dread.(AH)
14 He will be a holy place;(AI)
for both Israel and Judah he will be
a stone(AJ) that causes people to stumble(AK)
and a rock that makes them fall.(AL)
And for the people of Jerusalem he will be
a trap and a snare.(AM)
15 Many of them will stumble;(AN)
they will fall and be broken,
they will be snared and captured.”
16 Bind up this testimony of warning(AO)
and seal(AP) up God’s instruction among my disciples.
17 I will wait(AQ) for the Lord,
who is hiding(AR) his face from the descendants of Jacob.
I will put my trust in him.(AS)
18 Here am I, and the children the Lord has given me.(AT) We are signs(AU) and symbols(AV) in Israel from the Lord Almighty, who dwells on Mount Zion.(AW)
The Darkness Turns to Light
19 When someone tells you to consult(AX) mediums and spiritists,(AY) who whisper and mutter,(AZ) should not a people inquire(BA) of their God? Why consult the dead on behalf of the living? 20 Consult God’s instruction(BB) and the testimony of warning.(BC) If anyone does not speak according to this word, they have no light(BD) of dawn. 21 Distressed and hungry,(BE) they will roam through the land;(BF) when they are famished, they will become enraged and, looking upward, will curse(BG) their king and their God. 22 Then they will look toward the earth and see only distress and darkness and fearful gloom,(BH) and they will be thrust into utter darkness.(BI)

The Coming Assyrian Invasion
8 Then the Lord said to me, “Take a large tablet (A)and write on it in common characters,[a] ‘Belonging to Maher-shalal-hash-baz.’[b] 2 And (B)I will get reliable witnesses, (C)Uriah the priest and Zechariah the son of Jeberechiah, to attest for me.”
3 And I went to the prophetess, and she conceived and bore a son. Then the Lord said to me, (D)“Call his name Maher-shalal-hash-baz; 4 (E)for before the boy knows how to cry ‘My father’ or ‘My mother,’ the (F)wealth of (G)Damascus and the spoil of (H)Samaria will be carried away before the king of Assyria.”
5 The Lord spoke to me again: 6 “Because this people has refused the waters of (I)Shiloah that flow gently, and rejoice over (J)Rezin and the son of Remaliah, 7 therefore, behold, the Lord is bringing up against them (K)the waters of (L)the River,[c] mighty and many, the king of Assyria and all his glory. And it (M)will rise over all its channels and go over all its banks, 8 and it will sweep on into Judah, it will overflow and pass on, (N)reaching even to the neck, and its (O)outspread wings will fill the breadth of your land, (P)O Immanuel.”
9 Be broken,[d] you peoples, and (Q)be shattered;[e]
give ear, all you far countries;
strap on your armor and be shattered;
strap on your armor and be shattered.
10 Take counsel together, but it will come to nothing;
speak a word, (R)but it will not stand,
for God (S)is with us.[f]
Fear God, Wait for the Lord
11 For the Lord spoke thus to me with his strong hand upon me, and (T)warned me not to walk in the way of this people, saying: 12 “Do not call (U)conspiracy all that this people calls conspiracy, and (V)do not fear what they fear, nor be in dread. 13 But the Lord of hosts, (W)him you shall honor as holy. Let him be your fear, and let him be your dread. 14 And he will become a (X)sanctuary and (Y)a stone of offense and a rock of stumbling to both houses of Israel, a trap and a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem. 15 And many (Z)shall stumble on it. They shall fall and be broken; they shall be snared and taken.”
16 Bind up (AA)the testimony; (AB)seal the teaching[g] among my disciples. 17 I will (AC)wait for the Lord, who is (AD)hiding his face from the house of Jacob, and I will hope in him. 18 (AE)Behold, I and (AF)the children whom the Lord has given me are signs and portents in Israel from the Lord of hosts, who dwells on Mount Zion. 19 And when they say to you, “Inquire of the (AG)mediums and the necromancers who chirp and mutter,” should not a people inquire of their God? Should they inquire of (AH)the dead on behalf of the living? 20 (AI)To the teaching and to the testimony! If they will not speak according to this word, it is because they have no (AJ)dawn. 21 They will pass through the land,[h] greatly distressed and hungry. And when they are hungry, they will be enraged and will speak contemptuously against[i] their king and their God, and turn their faces upward. 22 (AK)And they will look to the earth, but behold, distress and darkness, the gloom of anguish. And they will be thrust into (AL)thick darkness.
