Isaiah 43
1 Now this is what the LORD says— He who created you, O Jacob, and He who formed you, O Israel: “Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name; you are Mine!
Israel, LEUM GOD su orekomla El fahk, “Nimet sangeng — nga molikomla tari. Nga pangon kom ke inem — ac kom ma luk.
2 When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you go through the rivers, they will not overwhelm you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be scorched; the flames will not set you ablaze.
Ke kom fahsr sasla in kof loal uh, nga fah wi kom, Ac ke kom fahsr sasla infacl uh, kof uh fah tia afinkomla. Pacl kom fahsr sasla in e uh, kom fah tia folla. Ac kosran e uh fah tia isikkomyak.
3 For I am the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior; I give Egypt for your ransom, Cush and Seba in your place.
Tuh nga LEUM GOD lom, God mutal lun Israel, su molikomla. Nga aksukosokyekomla, ac nga sang acn Egypt, Ethiopia ac Seba in molikomla.
4 Because you are precious and honored in My sight, and because I love you, I will give men in exchange for you and nations in place of your life.
Nga fuhleak mutunfacl puspis in molela moul lom, Mweyen kom saok sik Ac mweyen nga lungse kom ac akfulatye kom.
5 Do not be afraid, for I am with you; I will bring your offspring from the east and gather you from the west.
Nimet sangeng — nga wi kom! “Liki acn loesla nu kutulap ac roto, Nga ac folokonma mwet lom nu yen selos.
6 I will say to the north, ‘Give them up!’ and to the south, ‘Do not hold them back!’ Bring My sons from afar, and My daughters from the ends of the earth—
Nga ac fahk nu sin acn epang in fuhlelosla, Ac nu sin acn eir in tia sruokolos. Lela mwet luk in foloko liki fahl loessula, Liki acn nukewa fin faclu.
7 everyone called by My name and created for My glory, whom I have indeed formed and made.”
Elos mwet luk, Ac nga oralosla in akyokye wolana luk.”
8 Bring out a people who have eyes but are blind, and who have ears but are deaf.
God El fahk, “Pangoneni mwet luk nu in nien nununku. Oasr mutalos, tusruktu elos tia liye; Oasr sraclos, a elos tia lohng!
9 All the nations gather together and the peoples assemble. Who among them can declare this, and proclaim to us the former things? Let them present their witnesses to vindicate them, so that others may hear and say, “It is true.”
Pangon mutunfacl uh in tuku nu ke nununku. Ya ma sruloala lalos ku in palye ma ac sikyak ke pacl fahsru? Su selos fahkak meet ma sikyak in pacl inge? Elos in sifacna use mwet loh lalos In tuh akpwayei kas lalos, Ac in akkeye ma elos fahk an.
10 “You are My witnesses,” declares the LORD, “and My servant whom I have chosen, so that you may consider and believe Me and understand that I am He. Before Me no god was formed, and after Me none will come.
“Mwet Israel, kowos mwet loh luk; Nga sulekowosla tuh kowos in mwet kulansap luk, Ac tuh kowos in eteyu ac lulalfongiyu, Ac kowos in kalem kac lah nga God sefanna. Wangin pac sie god sayuk; Nuna wangin oemeet me — ac fah wangin pac nwe tok.
11 I, yes I, am the LORD, and there is no Savior but Me.
“Nga mukena pa LEUM GOD, Nga mukena pa ku in molikowosla.
12 I alone decreed and saved and proclaimed— I, and not some foreign god among you. So you are My witnesses,” declares the LORD, “that I am God.
Nga tuh fahkak meet ma ac fah sikyak, Na nga tuku in kasrekowos. Wangin god lun mutunfacl saya nu oru ouiya inge; Kowos mwet loh luk.
13 Even from eternity I am He, and none can deliver out of My hand. When I act, who can reverse it?”
Nga pa God, inge ac nwe tok. Wangin mwet ku in kaingla liki ku luk; Ac wangin mwet ku in ekulla ma nga oru.”
14 Thus says the LORD your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: “For your sake, I will send to Babylon and bring them all as fugitives, even the Chaldeans, in the ships in which they rejoice.
God mutal lun Israel, LEUM GOD su molikowosla, El fahk, “Ke sripowos, nga fah supwala sie un mwet mweun in lain acn Babylon. Nga fah kunausla mutunpot lun siti we. Pusren sasa in engan lun mwet we fah ekla nu ke pusren tung.
15 I am the LORD, your Holy One, the Creator of Israel, and your King.”
Nga LEUM GOD, God mutal lowos. Nga orekowosla, mwet Israel, ac nga tokosra lowos.”
16 Thus says the LORD, who makes a way in the sea and a path through the surging waters,
LEUM GOD El tuh orala innek soko sasla in meoa uh, Soko inkanek ma sasla in kof lulap.
17 who brings out the chariots and horses, the armies and warriors together, to lie down, never to rise again; to be extinguished, snuffed out like a wick:
El kolla sie un mwet mweun kulana nu ke ongoiya, Un chariot ac horse puspis Elos putatla, ac tiana ku in sifil tuyak. Moul lalos wanginla, oana firir lun sie lam ma kuniyukla!
18 “Do not call to mind the former things; pay no attention to the things of old.
Tusruktu LEUM GOD El fahk, “Nimet sripsripla nu ke ma sikyak in pacl somla, Ku sruokyana ma sikyak meet ah.
19 Behold, I am about to do something new; even now it is coming. Do you not see it? Indeed, I will make a way in the wilderness and streams in the desert.
Tupanang ma na sasu se nga ac oru. Mutawauk tari — kowos ku in liye inge. Nga ac oru soko inkanek sasla yen mwesis, Ac orala in oasr infacl in acn musrasra.
20 The beasts of the field will honor Me, the jackals and the ostriches, because I provide water in the wilderness and rivers in the desert, to give drink to My chosen people.
Kosro lemnak uh ac fah akfulatyeyu; Jackal ac ostrich fah kaksakinyu Ke nga fah oru infacl uh in soror yen mwesis In sang kof nu sin mwet solla luk.
21 The people I formed for Myself will declare My praise.
Elos inge nga orala in ma na luk, Ac elos fah yuk on in kaksak nu sik!”
22 But you have not called on Me, O Jacob, because you have grown weary of Me, O Israel.
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Tusruktu, Israel, kom totola sik Ac tiana alu nu sik.
23 You have not brought Me sheep for burnt offerings, nor honored Me with your sacrifices. I have not burdened you with offerings, nor wearied you with frankincense.
Kom tia use sheep nutum in mwe kisa firir lom nu sik. Kom tia akfulatyeyu ke mwe kisa lom. Nga tiana akkohsye kom in sapkin ke mwe sang, Ku aktotoye kom ke nga siyuk mwe keng sum.
24 You have not bought Me sweet cane with your silver, nor satisfied Me with the fat of your sacrifices. But you have burdened Me with your sins; you have wearied Me with your iniquities.
Kom tia moli mwe keng nu sik Ac tia pac akenganyeyu ke kiris ke kosro nutum. A kom aktoasryeyu ke orekma koluk lom; Kom aktotoyeyu ke ma sutuu ma kom orala.
25 I, yes I, am He who blots out your transgressions for My own sake and remembers your sins no more.
Ne ouinge, nga pa God se su eela ma koluk lom, Ac nga oru ouinge mweyen nga pa God. Nga fah tia esam ma koluk lom.
26 Remind Me, let us argue the matter together. State your case, so that you may be vindicated.
“Fahsru kut som nu ke acn in nununku. Srukak mwe tukak lom! Fahkak sripa nukewa lom in akpwayei lah kom pa suwohs uh!
27 Your first father sinned, and your spokesmen rebelled against Me.
Papa matu tomom oemeet ah el orekma koluk, Mwet kol lom elos orekma koluk lainyu,
28 So I will disgrace the princes of your sanctuary, and I will devote Jacob to destruction and Israel to reproach.”
Ac mwet leum lom aktaekyala acn mutal sik. Ouinge nga kunausla acn Israel; Ac nga lela tuh in aklusrongtenyeyuk mwet luk.”
