< Jeremias 8 >
1 At that time, says the Lord, they shall bring out the bones of the kings of Juda, and the bones of his princes, and the bones of the priests, and the bones of the prophets, and the bones of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, out of their graves;
“Ke pacl sac, srin tokosra ac mwet fulat lun Judah, ac oayapa srin mwet tol ac mwet palu, ac srin mwet saya su tuh muta in Jerusalem, ac fah pukpukyak liki kulyuk lalos.
2 and they shall spread them out to the sun, and the moon, and to all the stars, and to all the host of heaven, which they have loved, and which they have served, and after which they have walked, and to which they have held, and which they have worshipped; they shall not be mourned for, neither shall they be buried; but they shall be for an example on the face of the earth,
Srelos ac fah oanna fin fohk uh oana fohkon kosro — ac fah oaclik ye faht, malem, ac itu uh, ma mwet inge elos tuh lungse ac kulansupu, ac su elos lolngok yoro ac alu nu kac. Ac tia orekeni in sifil pukpuki.
3 because they chose death rather than life, even to all the remnant that are left of that family, in every place whither I shall drive them out.
Na mwet in mutunfacl koluk se inge su painmoulla, su muta in acn puspis yen nga akfahsryeloselik nu we, fah kena misa liki na in moul. Nga, LEUM GOD Kulana, pa fahk ma inge.”
4 For thus says the Lord, Shall not he that falls arise? or he that turns away, shall he not turn back again?
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik in fahkang nu sin mwet lal, “Ke pacl se mwet se ikori, ya el ac tia sifil tuyak? Mwet se fin tafongla liki inkanek uh, ya el ac tia sifil foloko?
5 Therefore has this my people turned away with a shameless revolting, and strengthened themselves in their willfulness, and refused to return?
Na kowos, mwet luk, efu ku kowos forla likiyu ac tiana sifil foloko? Kowos sruasralana nu ke ma sruloala lowos ac srunga foloko nu yuruk.
6 Listen, I pray you, and hear: will they not speak thus, There is no man that repents of his wickedness, saying, What have I done? the runner has failed from his course, as a tired horse in his neighing.
Nga arulana lipsre, tuh kowos tiana kaskas pwaye. Tia sie suwos inse asor ke orekma koluk lal. Tia sie suwos siyuk, ‘Ya oasr tafongla nga orala?’ Kais sie mwet ukwena lungse lal sifacna, oana soko horse kasrusr akwot nu ke mweun.
7 Yes, the stork in the heaven knows her time, [also] the turtle-dove and wild swallow; the sparrows observe the times of their coming in; but this my people knows not the judgements of the Lord.
Finne won stork uh elos etu na pacl in folok lalos. Won dove, swallow, ac thrush elos etu pacl in mukuila nu ke sie pac acn. A kowos, mwet luk, tia etu ma sap su nga oakiya nu suwos.
8 How will you say, We are wise, and the law of the Lord is with us? In vain have the scribes used a false pen.
Kowos ku in fahk fuka lah kowos lalmwetmet ac etu ma sap luk? Liye, ma sap uh ikla sin mwet sim kutasrik.
9 The wise men are ashamed, and alarmed, and taken; because they have rejected the word of the Lord; what wisdom is there in them?
Mwet lalmwetmet lowos elos mwekinla; nunak lalos fohsak ac elos srifusryuki. Elos likinsai kas luk, na pa lalmwetmet fuka lalos inge?
10 Therefore will I give their wives to others, and their fields to [new] inheritors; and they shall gather their fruits, says the Lord.
Ke ma inge nga fah sang ima lalos ac mutan kialos nu sin kutena mwet. Mwet nukewa, mwet fulat ac mwet srisrik, elos srike in orek mani ke inkanek kutasrik. Finne mwet palu ac mwet tol, elos kiapu pac mwet uh.
Elos oru oana in ma na kuretyuki pa kinet ke mwet luk uh. Elos fahk mu, ‘Ma nukewa wo na,’ sruhk ma uh tiana wo.
Mwet luk, ya kowos mwekin ke kowos oru ma srungayuk inge? Mo, kowos tiana mwekin kutu srisrik. Kowos tia pacna ngetnget in mwekin. Ke ma inge kowos ac fah misa oana mwet misa tari. Pacl se nga kalyei kowos, pa ingan saflaiyowos. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.
13 There are no grapes on the vines, and there are no figs on the fig-trees, and the leaves have fallen off.
“Nga kena eisani mwet luk, oana ke sie mwet orani kosrani lal; tusruktu elos oana sak grape ma wangin grape olo, oana sak fig ma wangin fahko; finne sra uh, masla pac. Ke sripa inge, nga fuhlela mwet saya in orekmakin acn inge.”
14 Why do we sit still? assemble yourselves, and let us enter into the strong cities, and let us be cast out there: for God has cast us out, and made us drink water of gall, because we have sinned before him.
Na mwet lun God uh siyuk, “Efu kut ku mutana? Fahsru, kut kasrusr som nu ke siti potyak ku uh ac misa we. LEUM GOD lasr El wotela mu kut in misa. El ase pwasin kut in nim, mweyen kut orekma koluk lainul.
15 We assembled for peace, but there was no prosperity; for a time of healing, but behold anxiety.
Kut tuh finsrak in oasr misla ac in oasr imwe nu sesr, a kut pulakin sangeng lulap.
16 We shall hear the neighing of his swift horses out of Dan: the whole land quaked at the sound of the neighing of his horses; and he shall come, and devour the land and the fullness of it; the city, and them that dwell in it.
Mwet lokoalok lasr uh sun tari siti Dan. Kut lohng pusren tungtung lun horse natulos. Acn nukewa kusrusryak ke horse in mweun natulos apkuranme. Mwet lokoalok lasr tuku in kunausla acn sesr wi ma nukewa loac, siti sesr ac mwet nukewa su muta we.
17 For, behold, I send forth against you deadly serpents, which can’t be charmed, and they shall bite you
Leum El fahk, “Kowos taran! Nga ac supwama wet nu inmasrlowos — wet pwasin ma tia ku in akmunayeyukla, ac wet inge ac fah ngalis kowos.”
18 mortally with the pain of your distressed heart.
Asor luk tia ku in unweyukla; Insiuk maskunak.
19 Behold, [there is] a sound of the cry of the daughter of my people from a land afar off: Is not the Lord in Sion? is there not a king there? because they have provoked me with their graven [images], and with strange vanities.
Porongo! Nga lohng pusren mwet luk Wowoyak sasla fin acn uh, “Ya LEUM GOD El som liki Zion? Ya tokosra lun Zion wanginla we?” Na LEUM GOD, tokosra lalos, El topuk, “Efu kowos ku akkasrkusrakyeyu ke kowos alu nu ke ma sruloala lowos Ac ke kowos pasrla nu ke god sac ma wangin sripa?”
20 The summer is gone, the harvest is past, and we are not saved.
Mwet uh wowoyak ac fahk, “Pacl fol somla, ac pacl in kosrani uh safla, A soenna mouliyukla kut.”
21 For the breach of the daughter of my people I have been saddened: in my perplexity pangs have seized upon me as of a woman in travail.
Insiuk itungyuki Mweyen mwet luk uh itatu; Nga tung nwe mwemelil, ac arulana oela.
22 And is there no balm in Galaad, or is there no physician there? why has not the healing of the daughter of my people taken place?
Ya wangin ono in Gilead? Ya wangin mwet ono we? Na, efu mwet luk uh ku tiana kwela?
