Lamentations 4
1 ALEPH. O how the gold has become dulled, the finest color has been altered, the stones of the sanctuary have been scattered at the head of every street.
Ninia sinenemegi gouli da gumi dagoi. Debolo Diasu gagui gele da logoba: le, afagogolesi diala.
2 BETH. The famous sons of Zion, and those clothed with the foremost gold: how they have become like earthen vessels, the work of the hands of a potter.
Dunu da gouli bagadewane hanai, amo defele, Saione moilai bai bagade ayeligi amola a: fini da ninima dogolegei. Be wali, ninima ha lai dunu ilia da ninia ayeligi amola a: fini amo osoboga hamoi ofodo agoai ba: sa.
3 GHIMEL. Yet even savages expose their breast and give milk to their young. But the daughter of my people is cruel, like the ostrich in the desert.
‘Wufi’ wa: me eme da ea manoma ha: i manu imunusa: dawa: Be na fi dunu da dalamole sio agoane, ilia manoma hame asigisa.
4 DALETH. The tongue of the infant adheres to his palate out of thirst. The little ones have asked for bread, and there was no one to break it for them.
Ilia da mano dudubuma ha: i manu amola hano hame iabeba: le, ilia mano da udigili bogogia: sa. Mano ilia da ha: ga, ha: i manu ha: giwane edegesa, be dunu afaega ilima hamedafa iaha.
5 HE. Those who were fed indulgently have passed away in the roads. Those who were nourished with saffron have welcomed filth.
Dunu amo da musa: ha: i manu ida: iwane nasu, be ilia da logoba: le udigili ha: ga bogogia: lala. Dunu amo musa: ilia ame amola ilia ada ilia da bagade gaguiwane noga: le bugili iasu, be wali ilia da isu salasua gila: leboba: sa lafia: sa.
6 VAU. And the iniquity of the daughter of my people has been made greater than the sin of Sodom, which was overthrown in a moment, and yet hands did not take captives in her.
Sodame fi dialu da Gode Ea hamobeba: le hedolowane se nabawane dafai. Be na fi ilia se dabe iasu da amo ilia se dabe iasu baligi dagoi.
7 ZAIN. Her Nazirites were whiter than snow, shinier than milk, more ruddy than ancient ivory, more beautiful than sapphire.
Ninia hina bagade ea mano da ledo hamedei, hou noga: i amo da fedege agoane ahea: iya: i anegagi ofo defele ba: su. Ilia da gasa bagade, mae olole, dagumui amola hahawane bagade ba: i.
8 HETH. Their face has been blacked more than coals, and they are not recognized in the streets. Their skin has adhered to their bones; it dried out and became like wood.
Be wali, ilia da udigili logoba: le, ilia odagi da ginafoi, ilia da: i da hafoga: le, ifa bioi agoane ba: le, geloga: le, gasa dabua heda: i ba: sa.
9 TETH. It was better for those slain by the sword, than for those put to death by famine. For these waste away, being consumed by the sterility of the land.
Dunu da ha amoga gegenana bogoi, ilia da hedolowane hale bogolegai. Be dunu amo da fa: no bogogia: i, ilia da ha: ga se lalaba ahoanawane bogogia: i.
10 JOD. The hands of pitiable women have boiled their sons. They became their food in the grief of the daughter of my people.
Gugunufinisisu hou da na fi dunuma doaga: beba: le, ilia da bagade beda: i. Eme ilia da ili dogolegei mano amo ili gobele mai.
11 CAPH. The Lord has completed his fury; he has poured out the wrath of his indignation. And he has kindled a fire in Zion, and it has devoured its foundations.
Hina Gode da Ea gasa bagade ougi hou ilima iasi. E da Saione moilai bai bagade laluga ulagisili, moilai bai bagade da huluane nene sa: i.
12 LAMED. The kings of the earth, and all the inhabitants of the world, did not believe that the adversary and the enemy would enter through the gates of Jerusalem.
Fifi asi gala dunu huluanedafa amola ga fifi asi ouligisu dunu, ilia da ha lai dunu da Yelusaleme logo ga: su golili sa: imu Amo da hamedei agoane dawa: i.
13 MEM. It is because of the sins of her prophets, and the iniquities of her priests, who have shed the blood of the just in her midst.
Be ha lai da golili sa: i dogoi. Bai Yelusaleme fi balofede dunu ilia wadela: le hamoi, amola ilia gobele salasu dunu da moloidafa dunu amo medole legema: ne hamoi.
14 NUN. They have wandered in the streets like the blind; they have been defiled with blood. And when they were not able, they held their garments.
Yelusaleme ouligisu dunu da si dofoi dunu agoai, udigili logoba: le dadoula ahoanusu. Ilia da: i da maga: mega uduli gafoiba: le, enoga ili digimu higa: i galu.
15 SAMECH. “Go back, you polluted ones!” they cried out to them. “Go back, go away, do not touch!” Of course, they argued, and being removed, they said among the Gentiles, “He will no longer dwell among them.”
Dunu ilia da amane halale sia: i, “Gasigama! Dilia da ledo hamoi dagoi! Na mae digima!” Amaiba: le, ilia da fifi asi gala amoga da: neboba: lafia: i. Be ili da enoga hame lale sali.
16 PHE. The face of the Lord has divided them. He will no longer respect them. They were not ashamed before the faces of the priests, nor did they take pity on the elderly.
Hina Gode Hisu da ili afagogolesi. Bai E da ili yolesi dagoi. Hina Gode da ninia gobele salasu dunu amola ninia ouligisu dunu ilima hame asigi galu.
17 AIN. While we were still standing, our eyes failed, expecting help for us in vain, when we looked attentively toward a nation that was not able to save.
Ninia da fidisu hohogola lai, be hamedafa ba: i. Ninia da fifi lai dunu enoga nini fidima: ne ouesalu, be enoga nini fidisu hame ba: i.
18 SADE. Our footsteps have slipped on the paths of our own streets. Our end draws near. Our days have been completed, for our end has arrived.
Ninima ha lai dunu da nini medomusa: desega dialu. Amaiba: le, ninia da logoba: le lafia: lumu gogolei. Ninia eso da baligi dagoi ba: i. Dagosu da doaga: i.
19 COPH. Our persecutors have been swifter than the eagles of the sky. They have been pursuing us above the mountains; they have lain in wait for us in the desert.
Buhiba da hedolowane muagadonini gogila dabe defele, ilia da nini gagumusa: segala: i. Ilia da agolo damana nini gagumusa: segala: i. Ilia da nini hafoga: i sogega gagulaligiba: le, ninia da fofogadigi.
20 RES. The spirit of our mouth, Christ the Lord, has been captured by our sins; to him, we said, “In your shadow, we will live among the Gentiles.”
Hina Gode da ninia hina bagade ilegei. Amo dunu da ninia esalusu ea bai galu. Nini da ea fawane ninima ha lai dunu huluane ilima gaga: mu, amo dafawaneyale dawa: i. Be ninima ha lai ilia da ninia hina bagade gagulaligi.
21 SIN. Be glad and rejoice, O daughter of Edom, who dwells in the Land of Uz. The cup will also pass to you; you will be inebriated as well as naked.
Defea! Dilia Idome fi amola Ase fi dunu. Oufesega: ma! Nodomu galea, nodoma! Dilima gugunufinisisu da doaga: mu! Dilia amolawane da da: i nabadowane gogosiane dadoula masunu.
22 THAU. Your iniquity has been completed, O daughter of Zion. He will no longer send you away to captivity. He has visited your iniquity, O daughter of Edom; he has uncovered your sins.
Saione moilai bai bagade da ea wadela: i hou amo dabe i dagoi. Hina Gode da nini mugululi asi amo ganodini bu bagade hame esaloma: mu. Be Idome fi, dilia! Hina Gode da dilima se iasu imunu. E da dilia wadela: le hamobe, dunu huluane ba: ma: ne, olemu.
