< Isaiah 47 >

1 Come down, and sit in the dust, O virgin daughter of Babylon, sit on the ground: there is no throne, O daughter of the Chaldeans: for you shall no more be called tender and delicate.
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Babylon, fani liki tron lom, Ac muta fin kutkut infohk uh. Meet kom oana sie virgin, sie siti ma soenna kutangyukla, A inge monum tia sifil fisrasrsrasr ac fwel! Inge kom sie mutan kohs.
2 Take the millstones, and grind meal: uncover your locks, make bare the leg, uncover the thigh, pass over the rivers.
Furokak eot in ilil flao! Eisla nuknuk afinyen motom! Sarukla nuknuk kato lom. Olak sikut lom an ac tupalla infacl uh!
3 Your nakedness shall be uncovered, yea, your shame shall be seen: I will take vengeance, and I will not meet you as a man.
Mwet uh ac liye lah kom koflufol; Elos fah liye ke kom akpusiselyeyuk ac mwekinla. Nga ac oru foloksak luk, ac wangin mwet ac tulokinyuwi.”
4 As for our redeemer, the LORD of hosts is his name, the Holy One of Israel.
God mutal lun Israel El aksukosokyekutla — Inel pa LEUM GOD Kulana.
5 Sit you silent, and get you into darkness, O daughter of the Chaldeans: for you shall no more be called, The lady of kingdoms.
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sin Babylon, “Muta in lohsr uh ac mislana. Mwet uh ac tia sifil pangon kom kasra lun mutunfacl uh!
6 I was angry with my people, I have polluted mine inheritance, and given them into your hand: you did show them no mercy; upon the ancient have you very heavily laid your yoke.
Nga tuh kasrkusrak sin mwet luk. Nga tia sifil oralos oana mwet luk. Nga fuhlelosi nu inpoum, Ac kom tiana pakomutalos. Finne mwet matu, kom arulana akkeokyalos.
7 And you said, I shall be a lady for ever: so that you did not lay these things to your heart, neither did remember the latter end of it.
Kom nunku mu kom ac kasra nwe tok, Oru wangin nunkeyen ma inge sum Lah ac mau fuka saflaiya.
8 Therefore hear now this, you that are given to pleasures, that dwell carelessly, that say in your heart, I am, and none else beside me; I shall not sit as a widow, neither shall I know the loss of children:
“Porongo ma se inge, kom su lungse mwe pwar Ac nunku mu moul lom an oakwuk ac wanginna sensen kac. Kom fahk mu kom fulat oana God, Ac wangin sie oana kom. Kom nunku mu kom ac tiana katinmasla, Ku pulakin keok ke sripen tulik nutum uh wanginla.
9 But these two things shall come to you in a moment in one day, the loss of children, and widowhood: they shall come upon you in their perfection for the multitude of your sorceries, and for the great abundance of your enchantments.
Tusruktu in kitin pacl na, ke len sefanna, Ma inge kewa fah sikyak nu sum. Kom finne susfa ac orek inutnut, Mukul tomom ac tulik nutum uh ac fah wanginla.
10 For you have trusted in your wickedness: you have said, None sees me. Your wisdom and your knowledge, it has perverted you; and you have said in your heart, I am, and none else beside me.
“Arulana wangin fosrnga lom ke ma koluk lom; Kom nunku mu wangin sie ac ku in liye kom. Lalmwetmet ac etauk lom kiapwekomla, Ac kom sifacna nunku mu kom God — Wangin sie saya oana kom.
11 Therefore shall evil come upon you; you shall not know from whence it rises: and mischief shall fall upon you; you shall not be able to put it off: and desolation shall come upon you suddenly, which you shall not know.
Mwe ongoiya ac fah tuku nu fom, Ac inutnut lom an tia ku in sikulya. Musalla ac fah sa na in sun kom, Sie musalla yohk ma kom tiana nunku mu ac sikyak!
12 Stand now with your enchantments, and with the multitude of your sorceries, wherein you have laboured from your youth; if so be you shall be able to profit, if so be you may prevail.
Sruokyana mwe inutnut ac mwe susfa lom; Kom nuna orekmakin ma ingan oe ke kom fusr ah me. Sahp ac ku in kasrekom, Ku sahp kom ku in sang aksangengye mwet lokoalok lom.
13 You are wearied in the multitude of your counsels. Let now the astrologers, the stargazers, the monthly sign tellers, stand up, and save you from these things that shall come upon you.
Wangin ku lom, kom finne eis kas in kasru Sin mwet su suiya itu uh, Ac kitalik pulan pacl uh fal nu ke ma elos liye inkusrao, Ac fahkak nu sum ma ac sikyak nu sum Ke malem nu ke malem. Sap mwet tuni ma oan yen engyeng uh ingan in tuku ac molikomla.
14 Behold, they shall be as stubble; the fire shall burn them; they shall not deliver themselves from the power of the flame: there shall not be a coal to warm at, nor fire to sit before it.
“Elos ac fah oana mah pao, Ma sie e ac fah furreak! Elos ac tia pac ku in sifacna molelosla. Firir sac ac fah arulana fol nu selos, Tia e in langlung se.
15 Thus shall they be unto you with whom you have laboured, even your merchants, from your youth: they shall wander every one to his quarter; none shall save you.
Pa na ingan luman kasru kom ac eis sin Mwet tuni ma oan yen engyeng uh, su kom muta lolngok yoro in moul lom nufon. Elos nukewa ac som liki kom ac fahsr innek lalos sifacna, Ac wangin sie selos fah lula in molikomla.”
