Isaiah 42
1 Behold, my servant, whom I uphold, my chosen, in whom my soul delights. I have put my Spirit upon him, he will bring forth justice to the Gentiles.
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Pa inge mwet kulansap luk su nga akkeye — Sie su nga sulela, ac nga insewowo sel. Nga nwakulla ke ngunik, Ac el fah use nununku suwohs nu fin mutunfacl nukewa.
2 He will not cry, nor lift up his voice, nor cause it to be heard in the street.
El ac tia wowo ku srukak pusracl, Ku liksreni sramsram inkanek uh.
3 A bruised reed he will not break, and a dimly burning wick he will not quench, but he will bring forth justice in truth.
El fah tia koteya soko loa ma kurula, Ku konela sie lam ma srik fulac. El fah use nununku suwohs ac kawil nu sin mwet nukewa.
4 He will not fail nor be discouraged till he has set justice in the earth. And in his name Gentiles will hope.
El fah tia fuhleak finsrak lal, ac pulaik lal ac tia munasla; El fah oakiya nununku suwohs fin faclu. Facl loessula elos rarala in lohng luti lal.”
5 Thus says God, Jehovah, he who created the heavens, and stretched them forth, he who spread abroad the earth and that which comes out of it, he who gives breath to the people upon it, and spirit to those who walk in it,
God El orala kusrao ac asroelik. El lumahla faclu ac ma nukewa fac. El sang moul ac momong nu sin mwet nukewa. Ac inge LEUM GOD El fahk nu sin mwet kulansap lal,
6 I, Jehovah, have called thee in righteousness, and will hold thy hand, and will keep thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles,
“Nga, LEUM GOD, pangon kom ac asot ku nu sum In liyaung tuh nununku suwohs in orek fin faclu. Keim nga fah oru sie wuleang yurin mwet nukewa; Keim nga fah use kalem nu sin mutunfaclu.
7 to open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the dungeon, and those who sit in darkness out of the prison-house.
Kom ac fah sang liyaten nu sin mwet kun, Ac aksukosokyalosla su kapir in acn lohsr.
8 I am Jehovah. That is my name, and I will not give my glory to another, nor my praise to graven images.
“Nga mukena pa LEUM GOD. Wangin god saya fah ipeis ke wolana luk. Nga fah tia lela ma sruloala in ipeis ke kaksak ma orek nu sik.
9 Behold, the former things have come to pass, and I declare new things. Before they spring forth I tell you of them.
Ma nga palye meeta, inge akpwayeiyuk. Ac inge nga ac fahkak nu suwos ke kutu ma sasu Meet liki na ma inge ac sikyak.”
10 Sing to Jehovah a new song, and his praise from the end of the earth, ye who go down to the sea, and all that is therein, the isles, and the inhabitants thereof.
Yuk soko on sasu nu sin LEUM GOD; On kaksakunul, faclu nufon! Kaksakunul, kowos su kalkal meoa; Kaksakunul, ma moul nukewa in kof uh! Kowos nukewa su muta yen loessula, kowos in wi pac on.
11 Let the wilderness and the cities of it lift up their voice, the villages that Kedar inhabits. Let the inhabitants of Sela sing. Let them shout from the top of the mountains.
Lela yen mwesis ac siti we in kaksakin God; Lela mwet Kedar in kaksakunul! Lela mwet su muta in siti Sela In sasa ke engan liki mangon eol uh!
12 Let them give glory to Jehovah, and declare his praise in the islands.
Lela elos su muta in acn loessula In sang kaksak ac wolana nu sin LEUM GOD!
13 Jehovah will go forth as a mighty man. He will stir up his zeal like a man of war. He will cry, yea, he will shout aloud. He will do mightily against his enemies.
LEUM GOD El illa oana sie mwet mweun watwen; El akola ac kena tari mweun. El foloyak ac sala ke sa in katkat; El fahkak kuiyal in lain mwet lokoalok lal.
14 I have for a long time held my peace. I have been still, and refrained myself. Now I will cry out like a travailing woman. I will gasp and pant together.
God El fahk, “In pacl na loeloes nga misla ac tiana kas; Nga tiana topuk mwet luk. Tusruktu inge pacl luk in mukuila. Nga wowoyak oana sie mutan su akola in isus.
15 I will lay waste mountains and hills, and dry up all their herbs. And I will make the rivers islands, and will dry up the pools.
Nga fah kunausla eol ac inging uh, Ac oru tuh mah ac sak uh in masla. Nga fah ekulla infacl ke infahlfal uh nu ke acn mwesis, Ac oru lulu in kof uh in paola.
16 And I will bring the blind by a way that they know not. I will lead them in paths that they know not. I will make darkness light before them, and crooked places straight. These things I will do, and I will not forsake them.
“Nga fah pwen mwet kun luk ke inkanek ma elos soenna fahsr kac meet. Nga fah ekulla lohsr lalos nu ke kalem, Ac oru acn siruprup in fwella ye mutalos. Nga wulela ouinge, Ac nga fah taranna in tia sutuela.
17 They shall be turned back, they shall be utterly put to shame, who trust in graven images, who say to molten images, Ye are our gods.
Elos nukewa su lulalfongi ke ma sruloala, Su pangon ma orekla ke poun mwet pa god lalos, Ac fah akmwekinyeyuk ac elos fah tonongla.”
18 Hear, ye deaf, and look, ye blind, that ye may see.
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Porongo, kowos mwet sulohngkas! Liye akwoya, kowos mwet kun!
19 Who is blind, but my servant, or deaf, as my messenger that I send? Who is blind as he who is at peace with me, and blind as Jehovah's servant?
Ya oasr mwet sulongin yohk liki mwet kulansap luk, Ku sulohngkas liki mwet utuk kas su nga supu uh?
20 Thou see many things, but thou do not observe. His ears are open, but he does not hear.
Israel, arulana yohk ma kom liye tari, A mea kalmac nu sum? Oasr srem in lohng, Tuh mea na pwaye kom lohng uh?”
21 It pleased Jehovah, for his righteousness' sake, to magnify the law, and make it honorable.
LEUM GOD El sie God su kena molela mwet uh. Ouinge El akfulatye ma sap lal ac luti lal, Ac El kena mwet lal in wi pac akfulatye ma inge.
22 But this is a people robbed and plundered. They are all of them snared in holes, and they are hid in prison-houses. They are for a prey, and none delivers, for a spoil, and none says, Restore.
Tusruktu oasr mwet utyak ac kunausla ma nukewa lun mwet lal. Kauli elos in acn lohsr ye fohk uh, Ac wikinyukla elos ke acn in kapir. Ma lalos uh pisrapasrla ac wapiyukla, A wangin mwet in molelosla.
23 Who is there among you that will give ear to this, that will hearken and hear for the time to come?
Su inmasrlowos ac porongo ma inge? Ya kowos ac ku in mutawauk ingela in lohng akwoya?
24 Who gave Jacob for a spoil, and Israel to the robbers? Did not Jehovah? He against whom we have sinned, and in whose ways they would not walk, nor were they obedient to his law.
Su fuhleang Israel nu inpoun mwet pisrapasr uh? LEUM GOD sifacna, su kut orekma koluk lainul! Kut tia moul fal nu ke lungse lal Ku akos mwe luti lal nu sesr.
25 Therefore he poured upon him the fierceness of his anger, and the strength of battle. And it set him on fire round about, yet he knew not. And it burned him, yet he laid it not to heart.
Ke ma inge El lela kut in pulakin ku lun kasrkusrak lal, Ac sun mwe keok lun mweun uh. Kasrkusrak lal uh firir oana sie e fin acn Israel nufon, A kut tiana kalem ke ma sikyak inge. Wanginna ma kut etala kac.
