< Lamentations 2 >

1 How the Lord has covered the Daughter of Zion with the cloud of His anger! He has cast the glory of Israel from heaven to earth. He has abandoned His footstool in the day of His anger.
In kasrkusrak lun Leum, El afinya Zion ke lohsr matoltol. El ekulla ma wo nukewa lun acn we nu ke ma na pilasr. Finne Tempul lal, El ngetla liki pac ke len in kasrkusrak lal.
2 Without pity the Lord has swallowed up all the dwellings of Jacob. In His wrath He has demolished the fortified cities of the Daughter of Judah. He brought to the ground and defiled her kingdom and its princes.
Leum El kunausla siti srisrik nukewa in acn Judah, ac tiana pakomuta. El kunausya pot ku ma lisring acn we. El aklusrongtenye tokosrai sac ac mwet kol nukewa lun acn we.
3 In fierce anger He has cut off every horn of Israel and withdrawn His right hand at the approach of the enemy. He has burned in Jacob like a flaming fire that consumes everything around it.
In kasrkusrak lal El kunausya ku lun Israel; El tia lungse kasrekut ke mwet lokoalok elos tuku. El kasrkusrak lain kut oana sie e su esukak ma nukewa.
4 He has bent His bow like an enemy; His right hand is positioned. Like a foe He has killed all who were pleasing to the eye; He has poured out His wrath like fire on the tent of the Daughter of Zion.
El aksuwosye mwe pisr natul nu kacsr oana mwet lokoalok se; El onelosla nukewa su kut tuh lungse ac insewowokin meet. Inge in acn Jerusalem kut arulana pulakin usren kasrkusrak lal.
5 The Lord is like an enemy; He has swallowed up Israel. He has swallowed up all her palaces and destroyed her strongholds. He has multiplied mourning and lamentation for the Daughter of Judah.
Leum El kunausla Israel oana sie mwet lokoalok; El oru tuh pot ku ac inkul fulat sin tokosra in arulana mwesri. El use nu fin mwet Judah mwe asor su wangin saflaiya.
6 He has laid waste His tabernacle like a garden booth; He has destroyed His place of meeting. The LORD has made Zion forget her appointed feasts and Sabbaths. In His fierce anger He has despised both king and priest.
El fukulya Tempul su kut alu nu sel we nu ke ip srisrik. El tulokinya in wanginla len mutal ac len Sabbath. Tokosra ac mwet tol elos kewa pulakin kuiyen kasrkusrak lal.
7 The Lord has rejected His altar; He has abandoned His sanctuary; He has delivered the walls of her palaces into the hand of the enemy. They have raised a shout in the house of the LORD as on the day of an appointed feast.
Leum El ngetla liki loang in orek kisa lal, ac som liki Tempul mutal sel. El lela mwet lokoalok in ikruiya pot kac. Ke elos kutangla, elos sasa in acn ma kut tuh engan in alu we meet.
8 The LORD determined to destroy the wall of the Daughter of Zion. He stretched out a measuring line and did not withdraw His hand from destroying. He made the ramparts and walls lament; together they waste away.
LEUM GOD El otela mu pot Zion enenu na in ikori. El srikeya in kalem na pwaye lupan acn ma ac kunausyukla. Tower ac pot in kalkal uh tukeni na oan musalla.
9 Her gates have sunk into the ground; He has destroyed and shattered their bars. Her king and her princes are exiled among the nations, the law is no more, and even her prophets find no vision from the LORD.
Mutunpot kac pukpuki oan mokutkuti, ac osra kac uh kipatpat uh. Inge tokosra ac mwet leum uh kewa elos oasr in sruoh. Ma Sap uh tia sifil lutiyuk, ac wanginla aruruma lun mwet palu ma tuku sin LEUM GOD.
10 The elders of the Daughter of Zion sit on the ground in silence. They have thrown dust on their heads and put on sackcloth. The young women of Jerusalem have bowed their heads to the ground.
Mwet matu lun Jerusalem elos muta infohk uh tia kas. Kutkut oan fin sifalos ac elos nukum nuknuk yohk eoa. Mutan fusr elos srimi nwe infohk uh.
11 My eyes fail from weeping; I am churning within. My heart is poured out in grief over the destruction of the daughter of my people, because children and infants faint in the streets of the city.
Mutuk totola ke tung, ac insiuk keoklana. Nga foroti in asor luk ke mwet luk su kunausyukla. Tulik fusr ac tulik srisrik uh mulalla na oan fin inkanek in siti uh.
12 They cry out to their mothers: “Where is the grain and wine?” as they faint like the wounded in the streets of the city, as their lives fade away in the arms of their mothers.
Elos tung nu sin nina kialos ke elos masrinsral ac malu; Elos ikor fin inkanek uh oana in fakfuki elos. Ac kuiyalos sriksrikeni nwe ke na elos misa inpoun nina kialos.
13 What can I say for you? To what can I compare you, O Daughter of Jerusalem? To what can I liken you, that I may console you, O Virgin Daughter of Zion? For your wound is as deep as the sea. Who can ever heal you?
O Jerusalem, Jerusalem saok sik, mea nga ku in fahk? Nga ac akwoye kom fuka? Wangin mwet nu pulakin keok ouinge. Ongoiya nu sum inge yoklana, oana lupan meoa uh. Wanginna finsrak in sifil akwoyeyuk kom.
14 The visions of your prophets were empty and deceptive; they did not expose your guilt to ward off your captivity. The burdens they envisioned for you were empty and misleading.
Wangin ma mwet palu lom tuh fahk nu sum sayen kikiap mukena. Kas in luti lalos nu sum kiapwekomla, mweyen elos tia fahkak ma koluk lom. Elos oru kom nunku mu kom tia enenu in auliyak.
15 All who pass by clap their hands at you in scorn. They hiss and shake their heads at the Daughter of Jerusalem: “Is this the city that was called the perfection of beauty, the joy of all the earth?”
Mwet ma fahsryak in siti uh ngetot liye kom ac srengak sum. Elos usruk sifalos ac isrun musalla lun Jerusalem, ac fahk, “Ku siti na kato sac pa inge? Ku pa inge wo se ma faclu yukin uh?”
16 All your enemies open their mouths against you. They hiss and gnash their teeth, saying, “We have swallowed her up. This is the day for which we have waited. We have lived to see it!”
Mwet lokoalok lom nukewa aksruksrukye kom ac sracsralik liye kom ke srunga lalos. Elos sralak ngoasrolos ac fahk, “Kut kunausulla! Pa inge len se kut muta soano ah!”
17 The LORD has done what He planned; He has accomplished His decree, which He ordained in days of old; He has overthrown you without pity. He has let the enemy gloat over you and exalted the horn of your foes.
LEUM GOD El tufahna orala ma se El tuh aksangengye kut fahk mu El ac oru ah; El kunauskutla ac wanginna pakomuta lal nu sesr, oana ke El tuh fahk nu sesr pacl loeloes somla ah. El sang kutangla nu sin mwet lokoalok lasr, ac akenganyalos ke kunausyukla kut uh.
18 The hearts of the people cry out to the Lord. O wall of the Daughter of Zion, let your tears run down like a river day and night. Give yourself no relief, and your eyes no rest.
O Jerusalem, lela pot ku lom in wowoyak nu sin Leum! Lela sroninmotom in sororla oana infacl ke len ac fong. Oru nwe ke na kom mwemelilla ke tung ac asor.
19 Arise, cry out in the night from the first watch of the night. Pour out your heart like water in the presence of the Lord. Lift up your hands to Him for the lives of your children who are fainting from hunger on the corner of every street.
Lela kom in tukaki tukakyak ac pang nu sin Leum ke fong nufon se; Fahkak nufon ma oan in nunak lom an nu sel, ac kwafe sel Elan pakoten nu sin tulik nutum Su masrinsral ac apkuran in misa ke insruwasrik in inkanek nukewa!
20 Look, O LORD, and consider: Whom have You ever treated like this? Should women eat their offspring, the infants they have nurtured? Should priests and prophets be killed in the sanctuary of the Lord?
Ngetma, O LEUM GOD! Efu kom ku kalyei kut ange? Mutan elos kang monin tulik natulos su elos kuloi! Mwet tol ac mwet palu elos anwuki na in Tempul!
21 Both young and old lie together in the dust of the streets. My young men and maidens have fallen by the sword. You have slain them in the day of Your anger; You have slaughtered them without compassion.
Mwet fusr ac mwet matu uh kewa misa oan inkanek uh. Mukul fusr ac mutan fusr anwuki ke cutlass nutin mwet lokoalok. Kom onelosi ac tiana pakomutalos ke len in kasrkusrak lom.
22 You summoned my attackers on every side, as for the day of an appointed feast. In the day of the LORD’s anger no one escaped or survived; my enemy has destroyed those I nurtured and reared.
Kom solama mwet lokoalok luk in tuh akpwaryalos ke mwe aksangeng rauniyula, Ac wangin mwet ku in kaingla ke len in kasrkusrak se lom uh. Elos akmuseya tulik nutik su nga tufahla ac kuloi.
