Isaiah 31
1 Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help; and stay on horses, and trust in chariots, because [they are] many; and in horsemen, because they are very strong; but they look not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither seek the LORD!
We nu selos su som nu Egypt in suk kasru! Elos lulalfongi ke ku lulap lun Egypt — ke horse ac chariot puspis, ac un mwet mweun lalos. Elos tia lulalfongi LEUM GOD mutal lun Israel, ku siyuk kasru sel.
2 Yet he also [is] wise, and will bring evil, and will not call back his words: but will arise against the house of the evildoers, and against the help of them that work iniquity.
El lalmwetmet in ma El oru! El supu mwe ongoiya. El ac akfalye kas lal in kalyei mwet koluk oayapa elos su loangelos.
3 Now the Egyptians [are] men, and not God; and their horses flesh, and not spirit. When the LORD shall stretch out his hand, both he that helpeth shall fall, and he that is holpen shall fall down, and they all shall fail together.
Mwet Egypt uh tia god-elos mwet na. Wangin pac ku mwenmen lun horse natulos. Pacl se LEUM GOD El ac srukak ku lal, mutunfacl na ku ac fah tukulkul, ac mutunfacl munas ma kasreyuk ac ikori. Acn inge kewa ac fah kunausyukla.
4 For thus hath the LORD spoken unto me, Like as the lion and the young lion roaring on his prey, when a multitude of shepherds is called forth against him, [he] will not be afraid of their voice, nor abase himself for the noise of them: so shall the LORD of hosts come down to fight for mount Zion, and for the hill thereof.
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik, “Mwet shepherd uh finne sasa ac wowo, elos tia ku in lusla soko lion liki kosro soko ma el uniya. In ouiya sacna, wangin ma ku in tulokinyuwi, LEUM GOD Kulana, liki in loango Eol Zion.
5 As birds flying, so will the LORD of hosts defend Jerusalem; defending also he will deliver [it; and] passing over he will preserve it.
Oana ke sie won el pikpik fin ahng lal in loango ma fusr natul, ouinge nga LEUM GOD Kulana fah karingin Jerusalem ac loangel.”
6 Turn ye unto [him from] whom the children of Israel have deeply revolted.
God El fahk, “Mwet Israel, kowos orekma koluk lainyu ac kisrung ma nga oru. Tusruktu inge kowos foloko nu yuruk!
7 For in that day every man shall cast away his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which your own hands have made unto you [for] a sin.
Pacl se ac tuku ke kowos nukewa ac fah sisla ma sruloala koluk ma kowos orala ke silver ac gold.
8 Then shall the Assyrian fall with the sword, not of a mighty man; and the sword, not of a mean man, shall devour him: but he shall flee from the sword, and his young men shall be discomfited.
Acn Assyria ac fah kunausyukla ke mweun, ac tia ke ku lun mwet. Mwet Assyria ac fah kaing liki mweun, ac mukul fusr lalos ac fah utukla nu in kohs.
9 And he shall pass over to his strong hold for fear, and his princes shall be afraid of the ensign, saith the LORD, whose fire [is] in Zion, and his furnace in Jerusalem.
Tokosra fulat lalos ac fah sangeng ac kaingla, ac mwet leum lalos ac fah arulana tuninfongla, oru elos ac sisla flag in mweun lalos.” LEUM GOD pa fahk ma inge — LEUM GOD su akfulatyeyuk in Jerusalem, ac su e lal firir we mwe kisa.
