< Isaiah 56 >

1 THUS saith the Lord, Keep ye judgment, and do justice: for my salvation is near to come, and my righteousness to be revealed.
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sin mwet lal, “Oru ma suwohs ac pwaye, mweyen ac tia paht nga ac molikowosla.
2 Blessed is the man that doeth this, and the son of man that layeth hold on it; that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it, and keepeth his hand from doing any evil.
Nga fah akinsewowoyalos su karinganang len Sabbath ac tia aklusrongtenye. Nga fah akinsewowoyalos su tia oru kutena ma koluk.”
3 Neither let the son of the stranger, that hath joined himself to the Lord, speak, saying, The Lord hath utterly separated me from his people: neither let the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree.
Sie mwetsac su weang mwet lun God elan tia fahk mu, “LEUM GOD El tia lela ngan wi mwet lal uh alu.” Sie eunuch elan tia nunku mu el tia ku in wi oaoala nu ke mwet lun God ke sripen el tia ku in orek tulik.
4 For thus saith the Lord unto the eunuchs that keep my sabbaths, and choose the things that please me, and take hold of my covenant;
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sin kain mukul se ingan, “Kom fin akfulatyeyu ke kom karinganang len Sabbath, ac kom fin oru ma nga lungse ac oaru in liyaung wuleang luk,
5 Even unto them will I give in mine house and within my walls a place and a name better than of sons and of daughters: I will give them an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off.
na inem ac fah esamyuk in Tempul luk oayapa inmasrlon mwet luk, paht liki na funu oasr wen ac acn nutum. Kom ac fah tiana mulkinyukla.”
6 Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves to the Lord, to serve him, and to love the name of the Lord, to be his servants, every one that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it, and taketh hold of my covenant;
Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sin mwetsac su wela mwet lal, su lungse El ac kulansupwal, su akfulatye len Sabbath ac oaru in liyaung wuleang lal:
7 Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon mine altar; for mine house shall be called an house of prayer for all people.
“Nga fah uskowosme nu Zion, fineol mutal luk, ac akenganye kowos in iwen pre sik, ac nga fah insewowo in eis mwe kisa ma kowos kisakin fin loang luk. Tempul sik fah pangpang iwen pre nu sin mwet in mutunfacl nukewa.”
8 The Lord God which gathereth the outcasts of Israel saith, Yet will I gather others to him, beside those that are gathered unto him.
LEUM GOD Fulatlana, su folokonma mwet Israel lal nu yen selos liki sruoh, El wulela mu El ac use kutu pac mwet sayalos in welulosyang.
9 All ye beasts of the field, come to devour, yea, all ye beasts in the forest.
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sin mutunfacl saya uh in tuku oana kosro lemnak ac kangla mwet lal.
10 His watchmen are blind: they are all ignorant, they are all dumb dogs, they cannot bark; sleeping, lying down, loving to slumber.
El fahk, “Mwet kol nukewa, su ma kunalos in sensenkakin mwet luk, elos kun! Wangin ma elos etu. Elos oana kosro ngalngul in soan ma tiana wowo — elos oanna ac mweme. Elos lungse na pwaye motul!
11 Yea, they are greedy dogs which can never have enough, and they are shepherds that cannot understand: they all look to their own way, every one for his gain, from his quarter.
Elos oana kosro oasroasr in mongo ma tia etu kihpi. Mwet kol inge wangin etauk lalos. Kais sie selos oru na ma elos lungse, ac suk na ma ac wo nu selos sifacna.
12 Come ye, say they, I will fetch wine, and we will fill ourselves with strong drink; and to morrow shall be as this day, and much more abundant.
Mwet sruhi inge elos fahk, ‘Use kutu wain an kut in nim na ke kuiyasr! Len lutu uh ac fah wo liki na misenge!’”
