Isaias 27
Ang Salita ng Dios (Tagalog Contemporary Bible)
27 Sa araw na iyon, gagamitin ng Panginoon ang kanyang matalim at makapangyarihang espada para patayin ang Leviatan, ang maliksi at gumagapang na dragon sa karagatan.
2 “Sa araw na iyon, aawit kayo tungkol sa ubasan na umaani nang sagana, na larawan ng aking bayan. 3 Ako ang Panginoon na nag-aalaga ng ubasan. Dinidiligan ko ito at binabantayan araw-gabi para hindi masira. 4 Hindi na ako galit sa ubasang ito. Pero sa sandaling may makita akong mga halamang may tinik, tatanggalin ko iyon at susunugin. 5 Pero maliligtas siya kung siyaʼy makikipagkaibigan at hihingi ng kalinga sa akin.”
6 Darating ang araw na ang mga mamamayan ng Israel na lahi ni Jacob ay magkakaugat tulad ng halaman. Magkakasanga ito, mamumulaklak, at mamumunga ng marami at pupunuin ang buong mundo. 7 Hindi pinaparusahan ng Dios ang Israel katulad ng pagpaparusa niya at pagpatay sa mga kaaway nila. 8 Ipinabihag ng Panginoon ang kanyang mga mamamayan bilang parusa sa kanila. Ipinatangay niya sila sa napakalakas na hangin mula sa silangan. 9 Mapapatawad lang sila kung gigibain nila ang mga altar nilang bato at kung didikdikin ng pino at itatapon ang mga posteng simbolo ng diosang si Ashera, at ang mga altar na sinusunugan nila ng insenso.
10 Nawasak na ang napapaderang lungsod. Para na itong ilang. Wala nang nakatira rito. Naging pastulan na lang ito at pahingahan ng mga baka. Inubos ng mga baka ang mga dahon ng mga sanga. 11 At nang mabali at matuyo ang mga sanga, tinipon ito ng mga babae at ginawang panggatong. Dahil sa walang pang-unawa ang mga taong ito, hindi sila kaaawaan ng Dios na lumikha sa kanila. 12 Sa araw na iyon, titipunin ng Panginoon ang mga Israelita mula sa Ilog ng Eufrates hanggang sa daluyan ng tubig ng Egipto na parang nagtitipon ng mga butil sa giikan. 13 Pagtunog ng trumpeta nang malakas, magsisibalik sa Jerusalem ang nahihirapang mga Israelita na binihag ng Asiria at Egipto. At sasambahin nila ang Panginoon, sa banal na bundok ng Jerusalem.
Isaiah 27
King James Version
27 In that day the Lord with his sore and great and strong sword shall punish leviathan the piercing serpent, even leviathan that crooked serpent; and he shall slay the dragon that is in the sea.
2 In that day sing ye unto her, A vineyard of red wine.
3 I the Lord do keep it; I will water it every moment: lest any hurt it, I will keep it night and day.
4 Fury is not in me: who would set the briers and thorns against me in battle? I would go through them, I would burn them together.
5 Or let him take hold of my strength, that he may make peace with me; and he shall make peace with me.
6 He shall cause them that come of Jacob to take root: Israel shall blossom and bud, and fill the face of the world with fruit.
7 Hath he smitten him, as he smote those that smote him? or is he slain according to the slaughter of them that are slain by him?
8 In measure, when it shooteth forth, thou wilt debate with it: he stayeth his rough wind in the day of the east wind.
9 By this therefore shall the iniquity of Jacob be purged; and this is all the fruit to take away his sin; when he maketh all the stones of the altar as chalkstones that are beaten in sunder, the groves and images shall not stand up.
10 Yet the defenced city shall be desolate, and the habitation forsaken, and left like a wilderness: there shall the calf feed, and there shall he lie down, and consume the branches thereof.
11 When the boughs thereof are withered, they shall be broken off: the women come, and set them on fire: for it is a people of no understanding: therefore he that made them will not have mercy on them, and he that formed them will shew them no favour.
12 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall beat off from the channel of the river unto the stream of Egypt, and ye shall be gathered one by one, O ye children of Israel.
13 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the great trumpet shall be blown, and they shall come which were ready to perish in the land of Assyria, and the outcasts in the land of Egypt, and shall worship the Lord in the holy mount at Jerusalem.
Isaiah 27
Christian Standard Bible
Leviathan Slain
27 On that day the Lord with his relentless, large, strong sword will bring judgment on Leviathan,(A) the fleeing serpent—Leviathan, the twisting serpent. He will slay the monster that is in the sea.(B)
The Lord’s Vineyard
2 On that day
sing about a desirable vineyard:(C)
3 I am the Lord, who watches over it
to water it regularly.
So that no one disturbs it,
I watch over it night and day.
4 I am not angry.
If only there were thorns and briers(D) for me to battle,
I would trample them
and burn them to the ground.
5 Or let it take hold of my strength;
let it make peace with me—
make peace with me.
6 In days to come, Jacob will take root.(E)
Israel will blossom and bloom(F)
and fill the whole world with fruit.
7 Did the Lord strike Israel
as he struck the one who struck Israel?(G)
Was Israel killed like those killed by the Lord?
8 You disputed with Israel
by banishing and driving her away.[a]
He removed her with his severe storm
on the day of the east wind.
9 Therefore Jacob’s iniquity(H) will be atoned for in this way,
and the result of the removal of his sin will be this:(I)
when he makes all the altar stones
like crushed bits of chalk,
no Asherah poles or incense altars will remain standing.
10 For the fortified city will be desolate,
pastures deserted and abandoned like a wilderness.
Calves will graze there,
and there they will spread out and strip its branches.
11 When its branches dry out, they will be broken off.
Women will come and make fires with them,
for they are not a people with understanding.(J)
Therefore their Maker(K) will not have compassion on them,
and their Creator will not be gracious to them.
12 On that day(L)
the Lord will thresh grain from the Euphrates River
as far as the Wadi of Egypt,(M)
and you Israelites will be gathered one by one.
13 On that day
a great ram’s horn(N) will be blown,
and those lost in the land of Assyria will come,
as well as those dispersed in the land of Egypt;
and they will worship the Lord
at Jerusalem on the holy mountain.
