< Isaiah 57 >

1 The just perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart, and men of mercy are taken away, because there is none that understandeth; for the just man is taken away from before the face of evil.
Mwet wo uh misa, a wangin mwet nunku kaclos ku suk lah efu. Tusruktu ke elos misa tari, wangin mwe ongoiya ku in sonolos.
2 Let peace come, let him rest in his bed that hath walked in his uprightness.
Elos su moulkin moul wo elos konauk misla ac mongla tukun misa lalos.
3 But draw near hither, you sons of the sorceress, the seed of the adulterer, and of the harlot.
Kowos mwet koluk, fahsru in nununkeyuk kowos! Kowos tia wo liki mwet inutnut, mwet kosro, ac mutan su lungse kukakin manolos.
4 Upon whom have you jested? upon whom have you opened your mouth wide, and put out your tongue? are not you wicked children, a false seed,
Su kowos isrun an? Kowos mwet kikiap, su kowos yayai uh?
5 Who seek your comfort in idols under every green tree, sacrificing children in the torrents, under the high rocks?
Kowos alu nu sin god lun eslap ke kowos orek kosro ye sak oal sunowos ingan. Kowos sang tulik nutuwos tuh in mwe kisa ke luf inmasrlon eot uh apkuran nu pe infacl uh.
6 In the parts of the torrent is thy portion, this is thy lot: and thou hast poured out libations to them, thou hast offered sacrifice. Shall I not be angry at these things?
Kowos eis eot fwel we, ac alu nu kac in srulun god. Kowos okoala wain ac use mwe kisa wheat in mwe sang nu selos. Ya kowos nunku mu nga insewowo ke ma inge?
7 Upon a high and lofty mountain thou hast laid thy bed, and hast gone up thither to offer victims.
Kowos som nu fineol fulat in orek kisa nu ke ma sruloala, ouinge kowos tia pwaye nu sik.
8 And behind the door, and behind the post thou best set up thy remembrance: for thou hast discovered thyself near me, and hast received an adulterer: thou hast enlarged thy bed, and made a covenant with them: thou hast loved their bed with open hand.
Kowos tulokunak ma sruloala fohkfok lowos in lohm suwos sisken na mutunoa uh. Kowos sisyula. Kowos susarla ac sroang nu fin mwe oan kiowos wi mwet kawuk lowos su kowos moli in oan yuruwos. Ouinge sun lungse koluk lowos.
9 And thou hast adorned thyself for the king with ointment, and hast multiplied thy perfumes. Thou hast sent thy messengers far off, and wast debased even to hell. (Sheol h7585)
Kowos fifla ke ono keng ac mosrwekowosla ke mwe akmusra, ac som alu nu sin god Molech. Kowos supwala mwet utuk kas nu yen loessula, finne nu in facl lun misa, in suk god saya in alu nu kac. (Sheol h7585)
10 Thou hast been wearied in the multitude of thy ways: yet thou saidst not: I will rest: thou hast found life of thy hand, therefore thou hast not asked.
Kowos ne totolana in suk god saya ingan, a kowos tiana fuhleak. Kowos tiana munasla ke sripen kowos pangon mu ma sruloala fohkfok lowos ingan sot ku nu suwos.
11 For whom hast thou been solicitous and afraid, that thou hast lied, and hast not been mindful of me, nor thought on me in thy heart? for I am silent, and as one that seeth not, and thou hast forgotten me.
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Su god inge ma oru kowos sangeng, pwanang kowos kikiap nu sik ac tiana esamyu? Ya kowos tila akfulatyeyu mweyen in pacl na loeloes nga misla ac tia kaskas nu suwos?
12 I will declare thy justice, and thy works shall not profit thee.
Kowos nunku mu ma kowos oru an pwayena, tusruktu nga fah fahkak luman orekma koluk lowos in eteyuk, ac ma sruloala lowos ac fah tia ku in kasrekowos.
13 When thou shalt cry, let thy companies deliver thee, but the wind shall carry them all off, a breeze shall take them away, but he that putteth his trust in me, shall inherit the land, and shall possess my holy mount.
Pacl kowos wowoyak in suk kasru, lela ma sruloala lowos ingan in molikowosla! Kitin eng na srisrik ku in okulosla! A elos su lulalfongiyu elos fah mutana in facl se inge, ac alu nu sik in Tempul luk.”
14 And I will say: Make a way: give free passage, turn out of the path, take away the stumblingblocks out of the way of my people.
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Musai inkanek uh, ac akoela! Lela mwet luk in foloko nu yuruk. Eisla ma nukewa su kosrala inkanek lalos!
15 For thus saith the High and the Eminent that inhabiteth eternity: and his name is Holy, who dwelleth in the high and holy place, and with a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite.
“Nga God fulat ac mutal, su moul ma pahtpat. Nga muta in sie acn fulat ac mutal, tusruktu nga oayapa muta yurin mwet pusisel ac mwet auliyak, tuh nga in ku in aksasuye lulalfongi ac finsrak lalos.
16 For I will not contend for ever, neither will I be angry unto the end: because the spirit shall go forth from my face, and breathings I will make.
Nga sang moul nu sin mwet luk, ac nga fah tia kolla mulat luk ac amei yorolos nwe tok.
17 For the iniquity of his covetousness I was angry, and I struck him: I hid my face from thee, and was angry: and he went away wandering in his own heart.
Nga tuh kasrkusrak selos ke sripen ma koluk ac nunak in rapku lalos, ouinge nga tuh kalyaelos ac ngetla lukelos. Tusruktu elos likkekelana ac fahsrna ke ouiya koluk lalos.
18 I saw his ways, and I healed him, and brought him back, and restored comforts to him, and to them that mourn for him.
“Nga liye tari ma elos oru, tusruktu ne ouinge nga fah akkeyalosla. Nga fah kololos ac kasrelos, ac nga fah akwoyalos su tung.
19 I created the fruit of the lips, peace, peace to him that is far off, and to him that is near, said the Lord, and I healed him.
Nga sang misla nu selos su muta apkuran ac oayapa elos su muta loessula! Nga fah akkeyala mwet luk.
20 But the wicked are like the raging sea, which cannot rest, and the waves thereof cast up dirt and mire.
Tusruktu mwet koluk elos oana noa meoa ma tia tui in sisak kutkut ac ma fohkfok nu fin acn uh.”
21 There is no peace to the wicked, saith the Lord God.
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Wangin misla nu sin mwet koluk.”
