< Ezekiel 28 >

1 A message from the Lord came to me, saying,
LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sik ac fahk,
2 “Son of man, tell the ruler of Tyre this is what the Lord God says: You are so proud of yourself, saying, ‘I'm a god! I sit on my throne like a god in the middle of the sea.’ But you're only a man. You're not a god, even though you think you are one.
“Kom, mwet sukawil moul la, fahkang nu sin leum lun Tyre kas su nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, fahk nu sel inge: Ke sripen kom inse fulat, kom sifacna pangon mu god se pa kom. Kom fahk mu kom muta fin sie tron oana sie god, ac acn meoa raunikomla. Kom finne sifacna pangon mu god se pa kom, tusruktu kom mwet se na, ac kom ac fah misa.
3 You even think you're wiser than Daniel and there's no secret that's hidden from you!
Kom nunku mu kom lalmwetmet lukel Danel, ac wangin ma lukma ku in wikinyukla nu sum.
4 Yes, you have used your wisdom and cleverness to make yourself rich, collecting plenty of gold and silver for your treasury.
Ke sripen kom lalmwetmet ac pah in orekma, oru kom kasrup ke gold ac silver.
5 You became wealthy through your superb trading skills, but your wealth only made you proud.
Kom usrnguk in orala inkanek in kuka, ac yokna kapak lom kac. Kom arulana inse fulat ke sripen mwe kasrup lom!
6 So this is what the Lord God says: Because you think that you're a god,
“Pa inge ma nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, fahk nu sum: Mweyen kom nunku mu kom lalmwetmet oana sie god,
7 watch as I bring foreigners to attack you. They are more cruel than any other nation. They will use their swords to destroy you and your wonderful wisdom; they will humble your proud glory.
nga ac fah use mwet lokoalok sulallal in mweuni kom. Elos ac fah kunausla nufon ma kato ma kom eisla ke inkanek in usrnguk ac lalmwetmet.
8 They will drag you down into the grave. You will die horribly out there in the sea.
Elos ac fah unikomi ac siskomla nu inkof uh, su pa ingan kulyuk lom uh.
9 Are you still going to claim, ‘I'm a god,’ to those who are killing you? You'll just be another human victim, not a god, in the eyes of your attackers.
Ke elos ac tuku in unikomi, ya kom ac srakna fahk mu god se pa kom? Ke kom ac tu ye mutun mwet ma ac unikom uh, kom ac mwet se na ac tiana god se.
10 You will be killed like some vile person by these foreigners. I myself have spoken, declares the Lord God.”
Kom ac fah misa oana soko kosro ngalngul inpoun mwetsac su tia etu ke God. Nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana pa sap in ouinge.”
11 Another message from the Lord came to me, saying,
LEUM GOD El sifilpa kaskas nu sik ac fahk,
12 “Son of man, sing a funeral song for the king of Tyre and tell him this is what the Lord God says: Once you were complete and perfect, full of wisdom and flawless in beauty.
“Mwet sukawil, kom in asor ke ongoiya se ma ac sikyak nu sin tokosra lun siti Tyre. Fahkang nu sel kas ma nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, fahk inge: Meet kom tuh sie mwe srikasrak ke moul suwohs. Kom tuh arulana lalmwetmet ac oasku!
13 You were there in Eden, God's garden. You wore all kinds of precious stones: carnelian, topaz, and amethyst; beryl, onyx, and jasper; lapis lazuli, turquoise, and emerald. They were placed in gold mountings and settings using skilled craftsmanship, and were made on the day when you were created.
Kom tuh muta in acn Eden, ima lun God, ac wulu kain eot saok nukewa: ruby, diamond, topaz, beryl, carnelian, jasper, sapphire, emerald, ac garnet. Oasr mwe walwal gold pac lom. Ma inge tuh akoeyuk nu sum ke len se na ma nga orekomla.
14 I gave you the position of guardian cherub, and I anointed you. You lived on God's holy mountain and you walked among the stones of fire.
Nga filiya sie lipufan na aksangeng ingo in taran kom. Kom tuh muta fineol mutal sik, ac fufahsryesr inmasrlon wek saromrom.
15 You were innocent in everything you did from the day you were created until you were found to be doing evil.
Ouiya lom tuh suwosna oe ke len se ma orekla kom, nwe ke pacl se kom mutawauk in oru ma koluk.
16 You were so busy with all your trading schemes that they destroyed you inside, leading you to sin and filling you with violence. So I sent you away in disgrace from God's mountain, and I removed you from your position as guardian cherub from your place among the stones of fire.
Kom tuh kafofo na ke oru orekma in kuka, ac ma inge kolkomla nu ke sulallal ac orekma koluk. Na pa nga liskomla liki eol mutal sik, ac lipufan se su taran kom el ukwekomyak liki inmasrlon wek saromrom uh.
17 You became proud because of your beauty, you ruined your wisdom because you thought you were so wonderful. So I threw you down to the ground and I made sure kings saw what happened to you.
Kom tuh konkin ke oaskuiyom, ac pwengpeng lom uh oru kom orekma in mwet lalfon. Ke sripa inge nga siskomi nu infohk uh, ac oru tuh tokosra ngia in ku in liye kom.
18 By all your sins and your dishonest trading you have made your sanctuaries unclean. So I had fire come from inside you, and it burned you up. I turned you into ashes on the ground as everybody there watched.
Yokla ma koluk kom oru ke inkanek in kuka lom, pwanang acn in alu lom uh kolukla. Ouinge nga esukak siti uh, nwe ke ma nukewa apatla. Mwet nukewa su liye kom in pacl inge elos liye lah akpusiselyeyuk kom.
19 All who know you among the nations are horrified at what happened to you. Disaster has brought you down and you're finished forever.”
Kom wanginla, wanginla ma pahtpat! Mutunfacl nukewa ma etekom uh elos sangengla, ac sensen elos in sun ongoiya oana kom!”
20 A message from the Lord came to me, saying,
Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik,
21 “Son of man, face towards Sidon and prophesy against her.
“Mwet sukawil, fahkak kas in palu lain siti Sidon.
22 Tell them this is what the Lord God says: Watch out, Sidon, for I'm condemning you, and I will be vindicated by what happens to you. People will know that I am the Lord when I punish her and show my holy character through her experience.
Fahk nu sin mwet we ma nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, fahk kaclos inge: Sidon, nga lain kom. Mwet uh ac fah kaksakinyu ke ma su nga ac oru nu sum uh. Elos ac fah etu lah nga pa LEUM GOD ke nga ac kalyei mwet su muta inmasrlom. Ma inge ac akkalemye lah nga mutal.
23 I'm going to send a disease to plague her, and have people killed in her streets. Those who are killed will fall inside the city as the enemy attacks with swords from every side. Then they will know that I am the Lord.
Nga fah supwaot mas upa nu fom, ac oru tuh srah in soror inkanek lom. Un mwet mweun ac fah tuku liki acn nukewa, ac onela mwet lom. Na kom fah etu lah nga pa LEUM GOD.”
24 The people of Israel will no longer have to put up with these people who are thorns in their side, painful brambles and sharp thorns who treat Israel with contempt. Then they will know that I am the Lord God.
Na LEUM GOD El fahk, “Wangin sin mutunfacl ma raunela Israel su aksruksrukal meet, ac fah sifilpa oana otonsak ac mwe fahkfuk in akkeokye Israel. Elos ac fah etu lah nga pa LEUM GOD Fulatlana.”
25 This is what the Lord God says: When I bring back the people of Israel from the nations where they've been scattered. I will show my holy character through them as everyone watches. Then they will live in their own country, which I gave to my servant Jacob.
LEUM GOD Fulatlana El fahk, “Nga ac fah folokonma mwet Israel liki facl nukewa su nga akfahsryeloselik nu we, na mutunfacl nukewa ac fah etu lah nga mutal. Mwet Israel elos ac fah muta in facl selos sifacna, su nga tuh sang nu sel Jacob, mwet kulansap luk.
26 They will live there in safety, building houses and planting vineyards. They will live there in safety when I punish all those around them who treat them with contempt. Then they will know that I am the Lord their God.”
Elos ac fah muta we in misla. Elos ac fah musai lohm selos, ac yok ima in grape. Nga fah kalyei mwet tulan lalos su aklokoalokyalos, ac Israel ac fah muta in misla. Na elos fah etu lah nga LEUM GOD lalos.”
