Malachi 3
1 Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord whom ye seeke, shall speedely come to his Temple: euen the messenger of the couenant whom ye desire: beholde, he shall come, sayth the Lord of hostes.
LEUM GOD Kulana El topuk ac fahk, “Nga fah supwaot mwet utuk kas luk in akoela inkanek luk. Na Leum su kowos suk ac fah sa na in tuku nu ke Tempul lal. Mwet utuk pweng se su kowos kena liye inge ac fah tuku ac sulkakin wuleang luk.”
2 But who may abide the day of his comming? and who shall endure, when he appeareth? for he is like a purging fire, and like fullers sope.
Tusruktu su ac fah ku in muteng len sac ke El tuku? Su ac fah ku in painmoulla ke El ac sikme? El ac fah oana sie e arulana ku ma aknasnasye osra, ac oana soap kulana.
3 And he shall sit downe to trye and fine the siluer: he shall euen fine the sonnes of Leui and purifie them as golde and siluer, that they may bring offerings vnto the Lord in righteousnesse.
El ac fah tuku in orek nununku oana sie mwet orekma ke osra su munanak silver ac gold in aknasnasyela. Ouinge mwet utuk kas lun LEUM GOD fah aknasnasye mwet tol uh, na elos fah use mwe sang wo ma fal nu sin LEUM GOD.
4 Then shall the offerings of Iudah and Ierusalem be acceptable vnto the Lord, as in old time and in the yeeres afore.
Na mwe sang su mwet Judah ac mwet Jerusalem us nu sin LEUM GOD fah mwe insewowo nu sel, oana in pacl meet ah.
5 And I will come neere to you to iudgement, and I will be a swift witnesse against the southsayers, and against the adulterers, and against false swearers, and against those that wrongfully keepe backe the hirelings wages, and vexe the widowe, and the fatherlesse, and oppresse the stranger, and feare not me, sayth the Lord of hostes.
LEUM GOD Kulana El fahk, “Nga ac fah tuku nu yuruwos in nununkekowos, ac nga fah sa in orek loh lainulos su inutnut, oayapa mwet kosro, ac elos su orek loh kikiap, ac elos su kutasrik ke molin mwet orekma lalos, ac elos su oru koluk nu sin katinmas, tulik mukaimtal, ac mwetsac — aok, lainulos nukewa su tia sunakinyu.
6 For I am the Lord: I change not, and ye sonnes of Iaakob are not consumed.
“Nga pa LEUM GOD, ac nga tia ekyek. Ouinge kowos, fwilin tulik natul Jacob, kowos soenna tuhlac na pwaye.
7 From the dayes of your fathers, ye are gone away from mine ordinances, and haue not kept them: returne vnto me, and I will returne vnto you, saith the Lord of hostes: but ye saide, Wherein shall we returne?
Kowos oapana mwet matu lowos meet liki kowos, su forla liki ma sap luk ac tia liyaung. Foloko nu yuruk, ac nga fah folokot nu yuruwos. Na kowos siyuk, ‘Mea kut ac enenu in oru tuh kut in folokot nu yurum?’
8 Will a man spoyle his gods? yet haue ye spoyled me: but ye say, Wherein haue we spoyled thee? In tithes, and offerings.
Nga siyuk suwos, ya fal sie mwet in kutasrik nu sin God? Kalem lah tiana fal, a kowos orek kutasrik nu sik. Na kowos siyuk, ‘Kut kutasriki kom fuka?’ Ke mwe sang ac sie tafu singoul lowos.
9 Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye haue spoyled me, euen this whole nation.
Sie selnga oan fowos nukewa, mweyen mutunfacl se inge nufon kutasrik nu sik.
10 Bring ye all the tythes into the storehouse that there may be meate in mine House, and proue me nowe herewith, sayeth the Lord of hostes, if I will not open the windowes of heauen vnto you, and powre you out a blessing without measure.
Use nufon lupan sie tafu singoul lowos nu ke nien filma in Tempul, tuh in pus mwe mongo we. Srikeyu ac kowos fah liye ke nga ac ikasla winto inkusrao ac ukuiya nu fowos kain in ma wo nukewa, in arulana yolyak nu suwos.
11 And I will rebuke the deuourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruite of your grounde, neither shall your vine be baren in the fielde, sayeth the Lord of hostes.
Nga fah tia lela wet srisrik in kunausla sacn sunowos, ac ima in grape lowos uh ac fah rukruk ke fahko.
12 And all nations shall call you blessed: for ye shall be a pleasant lande, sayeth the Lord of hostes.
Na mutunfacl nukewa fah pangon kowos mwet insewowo, mweyen facl suwos uh ac fah sie acn wowo in muta we.”
13 Your wordes haue bene stout against me, sayeth the Lord: yet ye say, What haue we spoken against thee?
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Kowos fahk kas in akkolukyeyu. A kowos siyuk, ‘Mea kut fahk keim?’
14 Ye haue saide, It is in vaine to serue God: and what profite is it that we haue kept his commandement, and that we walked humbly before the Lord of hostes?
Kowos fahk mu, ‘Wangin sripa kut in orekma nu sin God. Mwe mea kut in oru ma El fahk uh, ku in akkalemye nu sin LEUM GOD Kulana lah kut asor ke ma kut oru uh?
15 Therefore wee count the proude blessed: euen they that worke wickednesse, are set vp, and they that tempt God, yea, they are deliuered.
Ke liye lasr uh, mwet filang uh pa insewowo. Mwet koluk uh elos kapkapak, ac ke elos srike muteng lun God ke orekma koluk lalos, wanginna ma sikyak nu selos.’”
16 Then spake they that feared the Lord, euery one to his neighbour, and the Lord hearkened and heard it, and a booke of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the Lord, and that thought vpon his Name.
Na mwet su akfulatye LEUM GOD elos asramsrami, ac LEUM GOD El lipsre ac lohng ma elos fahk uh. Na simisyukla inen mwet nukewa su sangeng sin LEUM GOD ac akfulatyal, ke sie book in esmakin ye mutal.
17 And they shall be to me, sayeth the Lord of hostes, in that day that I shall do this, for a flocke, and I will spare them, as a man spareth his owne sonne that serueth him.
LEUM GOD Kulana El fahk, “Elos inge ac fah mwet luk. In len se ke nga ac oru nununku luk, elos ac fah ma luk sifacna. Nga ac fah pakomutalos oana ke sie papa el pakomuta sie wen su aksol.
18 Then shall you returne, and discerne betweene the righteous and wicked, betweene him that serueth God, and him that serueth him not.
Na mwet luk elos ac fah sifilpa liye lah oasr ekla inmasrlon ma ac sikyak nu sin mwet suwoswos ac mwet koluk, ac nu selos su kulansupweyu ac elos su tia.”
