Isaiah 56

1 Thus said YHWH: “Keep judgment, and do righteousness, 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 O the blessedness of a man who does this, And of a son of man who keeps hold on it, Keeping the Sabbath from defiling it, And keeping 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 Do not let a son of the stranger speak, Who is joined to YHWH, saying, “YHWH certainly separates me from His people.” Nor let the eunuch say, “Behold, I am a dried up 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 said YHWH: “To the eunuchs who keep My Sabbaths, And have fixed on that which I desired, And are keeping hold on 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 I have given to them in My house, And within My walls a station and a name, Better than sons and than daughters, I give a continuous name to him That is not 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 And sons of the stranger, who are joined to YHWH, To serve Him, and to love the Name of YHWH, To be for servants to Him, All keeping from defiling the Sabbath, And those keeping hold on 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 I have brought them to My holy mountain, And caused them to rejoice in My house of prayer, Their burnt-offerings and their sacrifices [Are] for a pleasing thing on My altar, For My house is called a house of prayer for all the peoples.”

“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 A declaration of Lord YHWH, Who is gathering the outcasts of Israel: “Again I gather to him—to his gathered ones.”

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 Every beast of the field, Come to devour, every beast 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—all of them, They have not known, All of them [are] mute dogs, they are not able to bark, Dozing, 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 And the dogs [are] strong of desire, They have not known sufficiency, And they [are] shepherds! They have not known understanding, All of them turned to their own way, Each to his dishonest 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, I take wine, And we drink, gulp strong drink, And tomorrow has been as this day, Great—exceedingly 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!’”
