Jeremiah 20
1 And Pashhur son of Immer the priest—who [is] also overseer, leader in the house of YHWH—hears Jeremiah prophesying these things,
Pashhur, wen natul Immer, el sie mwet tol su sifen mwet liyaung inkul in Tempul. Ke el lohng ke nga fahkak ma inge
2 and Pashhur strikes Jeremiah the prophet, and puts him in the stocks that [are] by the Upper Gate of Benjamin, that [is] by the house of YHWH.
el sap in sringsring nga ac kapiri ke mwe kapir apkuran nu ke Mutunpot Benjamin, ma oan lucng ke Tempul.
3 And it comes to pass on the next day, that Pashhur brings Jeremiah out from the stocks, and Jeremiah says to him, “YHWH has not called your name Pashhur, but Terror on Every Side.
Lotutang tok ah, tukun Pashhur el tuleyula liki mwe kapir, nga fahk nu sel, “LEUM GOD El fahk mu ac tia sifil pangpang kom Pashhur, a ac fah pangpang kom ‘Sangeng Yen Nukewa.’
4 For thus said YHWH: Behold, I am making you for a fear to yourself, And to all loving you, And they have fallen by the sword of their enemies, and your eyes are beholding, And all Judah I give into the hand of the king of Babylon, And he has removed them to Babylon, And he has struck them with the sword.
LEUM GOD El sifacna fahk mu, ‘Nga ac fah oru kom in sie mwe aksangeng nu sum sifacna ac nu sin mwet kawuk lom, ac kom ac fah liye ke elos nukewa anwuki ke cutlass nutin mwet lokoalok lalos. Nga ac fah filiya mwet Judah nukewa ye ku lun tokosra Babylonia. El ac fah usla kutu selos in mwet kapir nu in facl sel, ac uniya mwet lula.
5 And I have given all the strength of this city, And all its labor, and all its precious things, Indeed, I give all the treasures of the kings of Judah into the hand of their enemies, And they have spoiled them, and taken them, And have brought them into Babylon.
Nga fah oayapa lela mwet lokoalok lalos in usla mwe kasrup nukewa in siti se inge, ac sruokya ma lalos nukewa oayapa acn selos, wi pac ma saok lun tokosra Judah, ac usla ma nukewa nu Babylonia.
6 And you, Pashhur, and all dwelling in your house, Go into captivity. And you enter Babylon, And there you die, and there you are buried, You and all loving you, To whom you have prophesied falsely.”
A funu kom, Pashhur, kom ac sou lom nukewa fah oayapa sruoh ac utukla nu Babylonia. Kom ac fah misa ac pukpuki we, wi mwet kawuk lom nukewa su kom fahk kas kikiap puspis nu se.’”
7 You have persuaded me, O YHWH, and I am persuaded; You have hardened me, and prevail, I have been for a laughter all the day, Everyone is mocking at me,
LEUM GOD, kom kifasla insiuk Na nga tari wikomla. Kom ku likiyu, Ac kom kutangyula. Mwet nukewa aksruksrukyeyu. Elos tia tui in isrunyu.
8 Because from the time I speak I cry out, I shout, “Violence and destruction!” For the word of YHWH has been to me For reproach and for derision all the day.
Pacl nukewa nga kaskas uh, yokla pusrek, Ac nga wowoyak ac fahk, “Yokna sulallal ac kunausten!” LEUM GOD, aksruksrukyeyuk nga ac angonyuk nga pacl nukewa Mweyen nga sulkakin kas lom.
9 And I said, “I do not mention Him, Nor do I speak anymore in His Name,” And it has been in my heart As a burning fire shut up in my bones, And I have been weary of containing, And I am not able.
A nga fin fahk mu, “Nga ac fah mulkunla LEUM GOD Ac tia sifilpa kaskas ke Inel,” Na kas lom uh oana sie e in nga Ma firir in sri keik uh. Nga srike kuiyuk in sruokyana, Tusruktu nga tia ku in kutongya.
10 For I have heard the evil report of many, “Fear [is] all around!” “Declare, and we declare it!” All my allies are watching [for] my halting, “Perhaps he is enticed, and we prevail over him, And we take our vengeance on him.”
Nga lohng ke mwet nukewa mahmah mu, “Mwe aksangeng oasr yen nukewa! Lela kut in tukakunulak nu sin mwet fulat lasr!” Finne kawuk fototo luk elos soano nga in ikori. Elos fahk mu, “Sahp kut ac ku in kiapwella, Na kut fah sruokilya ac oru foloksak lasr nu sel.”
11 And YHWH [is] with me, as a mighty, awesome One, Therefore my persecutors stumble and do not prevail, They have been exceedingly ashamed, For they have not acted wisely, Continuous confusion is not forgotten.
Tusruktu, LEUM GOD, kom wiyu lac, ac kom kulana, Elos su kalyeiyu tia ku in kutangyula. Elos fah akmwekinyeyuk nwe tok, Mweyen elos tia ku in sun finsrak lalos. Mwekin lalos ac fah tiana mulkinyukla.
12 And, O YHWH of Hosts, trier of the righteous, Beholder of reins and heart, I see Your vengeance on them, For I have revealed my cause to you.
Tusruktu, LEUM GOD Kulana, kom srike mwet uh ke suwohs; Kom etu nunak lalos ac ma oan insialos. Ke ma inge lela nu sik in liye ke kom ac foloksak nu sin mwet lokoalok luk, Tuh nga likiya sripa nukewa luk inpoum.
13 Sing to YHWH, praise YHWH, For He has delivered the soul of the needy From the hand of evildoers.
On nu sin LEUM GOD! Kaksakin LEUM GOD! El molela mwet su akkeokyeyuk liki ku lun mwet koluk.
14 Cursed [is] the day in which I was born, The day that my mother bore me, Let it not be blessed!
Selngawiya len se nga isusla! Mulkunla len se nina kiuk el osweyula!
15 Cursed [is] the man who bore tidings [to] my father, Saying, “A male child has been born to you,” Making him very glad!
Selngawiya mwet se su akenganye papa tumuk Ke el us pweng wo se nu sel ac fahk, “Tulik mukul se pa nutum!”
16 Then that man has been as the cities, That YHWH overthrew, and did not relent, And he has heard a cry in the morning, And a shout at noontime.
Lela elan oana siti nukewa Ma LEUM GOD El kunausla ac wangin pakomuta lal. Lela elan lohng tung in mwaiok ke lotutang, Ac sulkakinyen mweun ke infulwen len,
17 Because he has not put me to death from the womb, And my mother is to me—my grave, And her womb [is] a perpetual pregnancy.
Mweyen el tia uniyuwi meet liki nga isusla, Na insien nina kiuk lukun pa kulyuk luk.
18 Why [is] this? I have come out from the womb To see labor and sorrow, Indeed, my days are consumed in shame!
Efu ku nga isusla? Ya ngan tuh sun mwe lokoalok ac mwe asor, Ac in aksafyela moul luk ke mwekin?
