< Jeremiah 49 >

1 Concerning the children of Ammon. Thus saith Jehovah: Hath Israel no sons? hath he no heir? Why is Malcam heir of Gad, and his people dwell in the cities thereof?
Pa inge ma LEUM GOD El fahk ke mwet Ammon: “Pia mukul Israel uh? Ya wangin mwet in tuyak loango facl selos? Fuka tuh mwet ma alu nu sel Molech elos tuku eisla acn sin sruf lal Gad ac oakwuki we?
2 Therefore behold, days come, saith Jehovah, that I will cause the clamour of war to be heard in Rabbah of the children of Ammon; and it shall be a desolate heap; and her towns shall be burned with fire; and Israel shall possess them that possessed him, saith Jehovah.
Tusruktu pacl se ac fah tuku ke nga fah oru mwet in siti fulat Rabbah in lohng kusen mweun, na acn we ac fah sikiyukla, ac inkul we ac fah firirla nwe ke apatla. Na mwet Israel fah sifil eisla acn selos ma mwet Ammon tuh eisla.
3 Howl, Heshbon! for Ai is laid waste; cry, daughters of Rabbah, gird you with sackcloth, lament and run to and fro within the enclosures: for Malcam shall go into captivity, his priests and his princes together.
Mwet Heshbon, kowos in wowoyak tung! Acn Ai kunausyukla! Mutan Rabbah, kowos in eoksra! Nokomang nuknuk yohk eoa ac muta in asor, ac sifacna sringil monuwos. Molech, god lowos, fah utukla nu in sruoh, wi mwet tol ac mwet fulat lal.
4 Wherefore gloriest thou in the valleys? Thy valley shall flow down, O backsliding daughter, that trusteth in her treasures, [saying, ] Who shall come against me?
Kowos mwet sesuwos, efu kowos ku konkin? Ku lowos uh sriksrikeni. Efu ku kowos lulalfongi ku lowos sifacna, ac fahk mu wangin mwet ac pulaik in mweuni kowos?
5 Behold, I will bring a fear upon thee, saith the Lord Jehovah of hosts, from all that are about thee; and ye shall be driven out every man right forth; and none shall assemble the fugitives.
Nga fah use mwe aksangeng nu fowos liki acn nukewa. Kowos nukewa fah kaingelik. Kais sie fah kaing in suk moul lal, ac wangin sie fah ku in orani mwet mweun lowos uh.
6 And afterwards I will turn the captivity of the children of Ammon, saith Jehovah.
Tusruktu tok, nga fah oru mwet Ammon in sifil kapkapak. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
7 Concerning Edom. Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Is there no more wisdom in Teman? is counsel perished from the prudent? is their wisdom spent?
Pa inge ma LEUM GOD Kulana El fahk ke acn Edom: “Ya wanginla pwapa ac oakwuk wo yurin mwet Edom? Ya mwet kasru lalos tila lotelos ke ma fal elos in oru? Ya lalmwetmet nukewa lalos wanginla?
8 Flee, turn back, dwell deep down, ye inhabitants of Dedan! For I will bring the calamity of Esau upon him, the time that I visit him.
Mwet Dedan, kowos in forla, kaing, ac wikla! Nga ac kunausla fwilin tulik natul Esau mweyen sun pacl ngan kaelos.
9 If grape-gatherers had come to thee, would they not have left a gleaning? If thieves by night, they would destroy only till they had enough.
Ke mwet uh sifani grape, elos ac likiya kutu in oanna ke oa in grape ah. Ac finne mwet pusrapasr uh ac tuku ke fong, elos ac eis na lupa elos enenu.
10 But I have made Esau bare, I have uncovered his secret places, that he is unable to hide himself: his seed is wasted, and his brethren, and his neighbours, and he is not.
Tusruktu nga arulana kunausla ma nukewa lun fwilin tulik natul Esau, ac nga konauk ac kunausla acn in wikwik lalos, na elos tia ku in sifil wikla we. Mwet Edom nukewa sikiyukla. Wangin siefanna selos lula.
11 Leave thine orphans, I will preserve them alive; and let thy widows trust in me.
Filiya tulik mukaimtal nutuwos an yuruk, ac nga fah liyalosyang. Katinmas lowos an ku in lulalfongiyu in kasrelos.
12 For thus saith Jehovah: Behold, they whose judgment was not to drink of the cup shall assuredly drink; and thou indeed, shouldest thou be altogether unpunished? Thou shalt not go unpunished, but thou shalt surely drink.
“Fin pa mwet su wangin mwata enenu in nim ke cup in kaiyuk, ya kowos nunku mu kowos ac tia wi sun kaiyuk? Mo, kowos enenu na in nim ke cup sac!
13 For I have sworn by myself, saith Jehovah, that Bozrah shall become an astonishment, a reproach, a waste, and a curse; and all the cities thereof shall be perpetual wastes.
Nga sifacna fulahk lah siti Bozrah ac fah ekla sie acn sikiyukla ac mwet uh ac tuninfong ke liyeya. Elos ac fah sufan, ac orekmakin inen acn we oana kas in selnga. Inkul atulani nukewa ac fah oan srualana nwe tok. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
14 I have heard a rumour from Jehovah, and an ambassador is sent among the nations: — Gather yourselves together, and come against her and rise up for the battle.
Na nga fahk, “Edom, nga eis sie kas sin LEUM GOD me. El supwama sie mwet in sulkakin nu sin mutunfacl uh tuh elos in orani un mwet mweun lalos ac akola in mweuni kom.
15 For behold, I have made thee small among the nations, despised among men.
LEUM GOD El ac oru kom in munas inmasrlon mutunfacl uh, ac elos fah pilesrekom.
16 Thy terribleness, the pride of thy heart, hath deceived thee, thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, that holdest the height of the hill. Though thou shouldest make thy nest high as the eagle, I will bring thee down from thence, saith Jehovah.
Inse fulat lom uh kiapwekomla, ac kom nunku mu mutunfacl saya elos sangeng sum. Kom muta fin fulu uh, yen fulat fin mangon eol uh; tusruktu kom nwe muta yen fulat oana eagle uh, LEUM GOD El ac srukkomi nwe ten. LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
17 And Edom shall be an astonishment: every one that goeth by it shall be astonished, and shall hiss, because of all the plagues thereof.
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Lupan musalla ma ac sikyak in acn Edom ac fah arulana upa, oru elos nukewa su fahsryak we ac fah lut ac tuninfongla.
18 As in the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah, and their neighbour cities, saith Jehovah, no one shall dwell there, neither shall a son of man sojourn therein.
Ma ac sikyak nu ke acn Edom inge, pa pacna tuh sikyak nu ke acn Sodom ac Gomorrah ke tuh kunausyukla acn we, wi inkul nukewa ma oan raunela. Wangin mwet ac sifilpa muta we. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.
19 Behold, he shall come up like a lion from the swelling of the Jordan against the strong habitation; for I will make them suddenly run away from it; and who is a chosen [man] whom I shall appoint over her? For who is like me? and who will assign me a time? and who is that shepherd that will stand before me?
Oana ke soko lion ac sasma liki insak matol sisken Infahl Jordan yak nu ke inima folfol insroa, nga fah tuku ac oru mwet Edom in sa kaing liki facl selos. Na mwet kol se nga sulela uh ac fah leumi facl sac. Su ku in lumweyuk nu sik? Su pulaik in kisrungyu? Ma ya mwet leum se ac lainyu?
20 Therefore hear the counsel of Jehovah, which he hath taken against Edom, and his purposes which he hath purposed against the inhabitants of Teman: The little ones of the flock shall certainly draw them away; he shall certainly make their habitation desolate for them.
Ouinge, porongo oakwuk ma nga oru in lain mwet Edom, ac ma nga akoo in oru nu sin mwet in siti Teman. Finne tulik natulos, ac amala som, ac mwet nukewa ac fah tuninfongla.
21 The earth quaketh at the sound of their fall; there is a cry, the sound whereof is heard in the Red sea.
Pacl se Edom ac putatla uh, kusa uh ac arulana yohk, pwanang faclu nufon kusrusryak, ac pusren tuninfong lun mwet uh ac fah lohngyuk oe yen loessula, sun Meoa Srusra.
22 Behold, he shall come up, and fly as an eagle, and spread forth his wings against Bozrah; and at that day the heart of the mighty men of Edom shall be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.
Mwet lokoalok ac fah mweuni Bozrah oana sie eagle asroelik paol ac pwesroulme. Ke len sac, mwet mweun lun Edom ac fah sangeng oana sie mutan ac isus.”
23 Concerning Damascus. Hamath is put to shame, and Arpad; for they have heard evil tidings, they are melted away: there is distress on the sea; it cannot be quiet.
Pa inge ma LEUM GOD El fahk ke acn Damascus: “Mwet in siti Hamath ac Arpad elos fosrnga ac sensen mweyen elos lohng pweng koluk. Mwe sensen afnulosi oana pulkulak lun noa meoa, ac elos tia ku in mongla.
24 Damascus is grown feeble: she turneth herself to flee, and terror hath seized on her; trouble and sorrows have taken hold of her as of a woman in travail.
Mwet Damascus elos munaslana, ac elos nukewa kaing. Elos fosrnga ac sensen ac keok, oana sie mutan in pacl in isus.
25 How is not the town of praise forsaken, the city of my joy!
Siti se ma tuh pwengpeng ac engan meet, inge wanginla mwet muta we.
26 Therefore shall her young men fall in her streets, and all the men of war be cut off in that day, saith Jehovah of hosts.
Ke len sac, mwet fusr lal ac fah anwuki inkanek lun siti uh, ac mwet mweun lal nukewa sikiyukla.
27 And I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus, and it shall consume the palaces of Ben-Hadad.
Nga fah esukak pot lun Damascus, ac nga fah furreak inkul fulat sel Tokosra Benadad. Nga, LEUM GOD Kulana, pa fahk ma inge.”
28 Concerning Kedar, and concerning the kingdoms of Hazor, which Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon smote. Thus saith Jehovah: Arise, go up to Kedar, and spoil the men of the east.
Pa inge ma LEUM GOD El fahk ke sruf Kedar ac facl ma karinginyuk sin acn Hazor, su tuh kutangyukla sel Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar lun Babylonia: “Mweuni mwet Kedar, ac sukela sruf se ingan su muta in acn kutulap!
29 Their tents and their flocks shall they take; their curtains and all their vessels, and their camels, shall they carry away for themselves; and they shall cry unto them, Terror on every side!
Sruokya lohm nuknuk selos ac un kosro natulos, mwe lisrlisr ke lohm nuknuk selos ac ma nukewa in lohm selos. Eisla camel natulos ac fahk nu sin mwet uh, ‘Kowos rauniyukla ke mwe aksangeng!’
30 Flee, wander very far, dwell deep down, ye inhabitants of Hazor, saith Jehovah; for Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon hath taken counsel against you, and hath conceived a purpose against you.
“Mwet Hazor, nga LEUM GOD, sensenkakin kowos tuh kowos in kaingla nu yen loessula ac wikla. Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar lun Babylonia el orek pwapa in lain kowos, ac pa inge ma el fahk,
31 Arise, get you up against the nation at ease, that dwelleth securely, saith Jehovah, which hath neither gates nor bars: they dwell alone.
‘Tuyak, som mweuni mwet ingo su muta in misla ac wangin fosrnga lalos! Acn selos wangin mutunpot, wangin pac polosak in sang kaliya, ac wangin facl apkuran nu yorolos.
32 And their camels shall be a booty, and the multitude of their cattle a spoil; and I will scatter to every wind them that have the corners [of their beard] cut off, and I will bring their calamity from all sides thereof, saith Jehovah.
“Eisla camel ac cow nukewa natulos! Mwet ingan su kalla insifalos fototo, nga fah luselosla nu yen nukewa. Nga fah oru tuh ongoiya in tuku nu faclos yen nukewa me.
33 And Hazor shall be a dwelling-place of jackals, a desolation for ever. No one shall dwell there, neither shall a son of man sojourn therein.
Acn Hazor ac fah sie acn mwesis nwe tok, sie acn ma kosro inima mukena muta we. Wangin mwet ac sifilpa muta we. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
34 The word of Jehovah that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning Elam, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying,
Tia paht tukun Zedekiah el tokosrala lun Judah, LEUM GOD Kulana El kaskas nu sik ke acn Elam.
35 Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Behold, I will break the bow of Elam, the chief of their might.
El fahk, “Nga fah uniya mwet pisr nukewa su oru Elam arulana ku.
36 And upon Elam will I bring the four winds, from the four ends of the heavens, and I will scatter them toward all those winds; and there shall be no nation whither the outcasts of Elam shall not come.
Nga fah oru eng uh in tuhyak lain Elam liki acn nukewa, ac nga fah akfahsryelik mwet lal nu yen nukewa, nwe ke wangin sie mutunfacl ma elos tia kaingelik nu we.
37 And I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies, and before them that seek their life; and I will bring evil upon them, my fierce anger, saith Jehovah; and I will send the sword after them, till I have consumed them.
Nga fah oru mwet Elam elos in sangeng sin mwet lokoalok lalos, su lungse onelosi. In kasrkusrak lulap luk, nga fah kunausla mwet Elam ac supwala un mwet mweun lainulos nwe ke nga sukelosla nufon.
38 And I will set my throne in Elam, and will destroy from thence king and princes, saith Jehovah.
Nga fah kunausla tokosra ac mwet kol lalos, ac nga fah tulokunak tron luk we.
39 But it shall come to pass at the end of the days, I will turn the captivity of Elam, saith Jehovah.
Tusruktu tok nga fah oru mwet Elam in sifilpa kapkapak. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
