Ezekiel 15

1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:

LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sik

2 “Son of man, what can be made from the stalk of a vine, compared to all the plants of the woods that are among the trees of the forests?

ac fahk, “Kom, mwet sukawil moul la, fuka tuh sak grape uh in wo liki kain sak nukewa saya uh? Ya oasr sripen lahn grape uh liki lahn sak lulap insak uh?

3 Can any wood be taken from it, so that it may be made into a work, or formed into a peg so as to hang some kind of vessel upon it?

Ya kom ku in orekmakin fain in orala kutena ma? Ya kom ku in orala mwe sripsrip kac in sang srupusrak mau?

4 Behold, it is used in the fire as fuel. The fire consumes both its ends; and its middle is reduced to ashes. So how can it be useful for any work?

Ma sefanna ac ku in orek kac, pa in sang tanak sie e ah. Muta luo ah fin firirla ac infulwa ah mulutla, ya kom ac ku in orala kutena ma kac?

5 Even when it was whole, it was unsuitable for a work. How much more so, when fire has devoured it and burned it up, will nothing of it be useful?

Meet liki firiryak ah nuna wangin sripa; ac inge ke firiryak tari ac mulutla, wanginla na pwaye sripa.”

6 Therefore, thus says the Lord God: Like the stalk of the vine among the trees of the forests, which I have given to be devoured by fire, so will I deliver the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

Pa inge ma LEUM GOD Fulatlana El fahk: “Oana ke ac utuku fain liki insak uh ac isisyak, ouinge nga fah usla mwet in acn Jerusalem

7 And I will set my face against them. They will go away from fire, and yet fire will consume them. And you shall know that I am the Lord, when I will have set my face against them,

ac kalyaelos. Elos kaingkunla sie e uh, a inge sie pac e ac esukulosyak. Ke nga ac kalyaelos, kom ac fah etu lah nga pa LEUM GOD.

8 and when I will have made their land impassable and desolate. For they have stood forth as transgressors, says the Lord God.”

Elos tia pwaye nu sik, ouinge nga fah orala facl sac in acn mwesisla.” LEUM GOD Fulatlana pa fahk ma inge.
