< Jeremiah 12 >

1 O Lord, if I dispute with thee, thou art righteous: yet let mee talke with thee of thy iudgements: wherefore doeth the way of the wicked prosper? why are all they in wealth that rebelliously transgresse?
LEUM GOD, nga fin srukak sie sripa nga kom in tukeni akukuin kac, Ma kom ac fahk uh pa pwaye uh. Ne ouinge, nga ke kusen siyuk nu sum ke nununku suwohs. Efu ku mwet koluk uh kasrupi? Efu ku mwet kutasrik uh wo ouiyalos?
2 Thou hast planted them, and they haue taken roote: they grow, and bring forth fruite: thou art neere in their mouth, and farre from their reines.
Kom yokwalosi, ac elos okahla; Elos kapak ac isus fahko. Elos fahk kas wo keim pacl nukewa A insialos loesla nu sum.
3 But thou, Lord, knowest me: thou hast seene me, and tried mine heart towarde thee: pull them out like sheepe for the slaughter, and prepare them for the day of slaughter.
Tusruktu, LEUM GOD, kom eteyu. Kom liye ma nga oru Ac etu lah nga lungse kom. Amakunla mwet koluk inge oana sheep ma ac anwuki; Taranulos nu ke pacl lalos in anwuki.
4 Howe long shall the lande mourne, and the herbes of euery fielde wither, for the wickednesse of them that dwell therein? the beastes are consumed and the birdes, because they sayd, He wil not see our last ende.
Facl sesr uh ac paola nwe ngac? Mah nukewa inima uh ac uli putaka? Kosro ac won uh masla Ke sripen orekma koluk lun mwet lasr — Mwet su fahk mu, “God El tia liye ma kut oru uh.”
5 If thou hast runne with the footemen and they haue wearied thee, then howe canst thou match thy selfe with horses? and if thou thoughtest thy selfe safe in a peaceable lande, what wilt thou do in the swelling of Iorden?
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Jeremiah, kom fin totola ke kom akutun nu sin mwet, Na kom ac akutun fuka nu sin horse uh? Kom fin tukulkul ke sie acn mwesas, Na kom ac tuyak fuka ke insak matol sisken Infacl Jordan?
6 For euen thy brethren, and the house of thy father, euen they haue delt vnfaithfully with thee, and they haue cryed out altogether vpon thee: but beleeue them not, though they speake faire to thee.
Finne ma lim, mwet in sou lom sifacna, elos kiapwekomla. Elos welulosyang su lain kom. Nik kom lulalfongelos, elos finne kaskas kulang nu sum.”
7 I haue forsaken mine house: I haue left mine heritage: I haue giuen the dearely beloued of my soule into the hands of her enemies.
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Nga ngetla liki Israel. Nga sisla tari mutunfacl se nga sulela in ma luk. Mwet su nga lungse uh nga eisalosyang Nu inpoun mwet lokoalok lalos.
8 Mine heritage is vnto mee, as a lion in the forest: it crieth out against mee, therefore haue I hated it.
Mwet solla luk elos forma lainyu. Elos ngutngut nu sik Oana soko lion insak uh. Ke ma inge nga srungalos.
9 Shall mine heritage bee vnto mee, as a bird of diuers colours? are not the birdes about her, saying, Come, assemble all ye beastes of the fielde, come to eate her?
Mwet solla luk elos oana sie won Ma won ngia tuku liki acn nukewa in lainul. Pangonma kosro lemnak nukewa In tuku kangla nufon!
10 Many pastors haue destroyed my vineyarde, and troden my portion vnder foote: of my pleasant portion they haue made a desolate wildernesse.
Mwet kol puspis ke mutunfacl saya elos kunausla ima in grape luk. Elos lolongya ima luk uh. Elos ekulla facl wolana sik nu ke acn mwesis.
11 They haue layde it waste, and it, being waste, mourneth vnto me: and the whole lande lyeth waste, because no man setteth his minde on it.
Elos oru acn uh sie acn mwesisla, wangin ma oan fac, Musalla oan ye mutuk. Facl sac nufon ekla nu ke sie acn mwesis, Ac wanginna mwet lohang nu kac.
12 The destroyers are come vpon all the high places in the wildernesse: for the sworde of the Lord shall deuoure from the one end of the land, euen to the other ende of the lande: no flesh shall haue peace.
Mwet uh tuku liki acn fulat nukewa yen mwesis uh In usla kutena ma lula we. Nga supwala mweun in kunausla facl sac nufon; Wangin mwet ac muta in misla.
13 They haue sowen wheate, and reaped thornes: they were sicke, and had no profite: and they were ashamed of your fruites, because of the fierce wrath of the Lord.
Mwet luk elos taknelik wheat, a kosrani kokul. Elos kemkatu ke wangin. Ke sripen kasrkusrak luk Ma sunalos uh tiana fok.”
14 Thus sayeth the Lord against all mine euill neighbours, that touch the inheritance, which I haue caused my people Israel to inherite, Beholde, I will plucke them out of their lande, and plucke out the house of Iudah from among them.
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Oasr ma nga ac fahk ke mwet tulan lun Israel su kunausla facl se nga tuh sang sin mwet luk, mwet Israel. Nga fah eisla mwet kutasrik inge liki facl selos, oana ke soko sak ac fifyak uh. Ac nga fah molela Judah lukelos.
15 And after that I haue plucked them out, I will returne, and haue compassion on them, and will bring againe euery man to his heritage, and euery man to his land.
Tusruktu tukun nga usalosla, nga fah pakomutalos. Nga fah folokonma kais sie mutunfacl nu fin acn selos sifacna, ac nu facl selos sifacna.
16 And if they will learne the wayes of my people, to sweare by my Name, (The Lord liueth, as they taught my people to sweare by Baal) then shall they be built in the middes of my people.
Elos fin wi mwet luk alu ke insialos pwaye, ac elos fin fulahk ke kas inge: ‘Oana ke LEUM GOD El moul’ — oana ke elos tuh luti mwet luk in fulahk inen Baal in pacl meet ah — na elos fah ku in oaoala yurin mwet luk, ac wi eis mwe insewowo.
17 But if they will not obey, then will I vtterly plucke vp, and destroy that nation, sayeth the Lord.
Tusruktu kutena mutunfacl fin tia akos, na nga fah fusulosyak ac kunauselosla. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
