< Isaiah 29 >
1 Woe to Ariel. Ariel, the city where David camped. Add year to year; let the feasts come around;
We nu sin Jerusalem, Loang lun God! We nu sin siti se David el aktuktuk we! Kowos in oru na len in akfulat ac kufwa lowos uh, tusruktu tukun yac se ku luo,
2 then I will distress Ariel, and there will be mourning and lamentation. She shall be to me as an altar hearth.
na God El fah use ongoiya nu fin siti se su pangpang “Loang lun God.” Ac fah oasr tung ac tung tutaf, ac siti nufon sac ac fah oana sie loang afla ke srah.
3 And I will camp in a circle around you, and will lay siege against you with posted troops. I will raise siege works against you.
God El ac kuhlusya siti sac, musaela nien fan we, ac mweuni ke siska nukewa.
4 You will be brought down, and will speak out of the ground. Your speech will mumble out of the dust. Your voice will be as of one who has a familiar spirit, out of the ground, and your speech will whisper out of the dust.
Jerusalem el ac fah oana sie ngun su srike in kaskas ye fohk uh me, sie pusra kororak ye kutkut uh me.
5 But the multitude of your arrogant will be like fine dust, and the multitude of the ruthless ones like chaff that blows away. Yes, it will be in an instant, suddenly.
Jerusalem, mutunfacl sac nukewa su mweuni kom ac fah ukukla oana kutkut, ac un mwet mweun sulallal lalos fah sohkla oana mah pao. In kitin pacl na, ke wangin motkweya,
6 She will be visited by the LORD of hosts with thunder, with earthquake, with great noise, with whirlwind and storm, and with the flame of a devouring fire.
LEUM GOD Kulana El ac fah molikomla ke ku lulap lun paka ac kusrusr. El ac fah supwama pulahl, eng upa, ac e na lulap,
7 The multitude of all the nations that fight against Ariel, even all who fight against her and her stronghold, and who distress her, will be like a dream, a vision of the night.
na un mwet mweun lun mutunfacl su mweuni siti se pangpang Loang lun God, fah wanginla oana sie mweme, oana sie aruruma ke fong. Aok, kufwen mwe mweun ac kufwen sroasr nukewa fah wanginla.
8 It will be like when a hungry man dreams, and look, he eats; but he awakes, and his hunger isn't satisfied; or like when a thirsty man dreams, and look, he drinks; but he awakes, and look, he is faint, and he is still thirsty. The multitude of all the nations that fight against Mount Zion will be like that.
Mutunfacl nukewa ma toeni in mweuni Jerusalem ac fah oana sie mwet masrinsral su mweme mu el mongo, ac ke el ngutalik el srakna masrinsral, ku oana sie mwet su arulana malu su mweme mu el nim kof, ac ke el ngutalik paola kapinsrulyal.
9 Pause and wonder. Blind yourselves and be blind. They are drunk, but not with wine; they stagger, but not with strong drink.
Oru na lalfon lowos an! Oru kowos in sulongintenna! Kowos in sruhila ac tukulkul finne wanginna wain ku mwe nim ku kowos eis!
10 For the LORD has poured out on you a spirit of deep sleep, and has closed your eyes (the prophets), and he has covered your heads (the seers).
LEUM GOD El oru kowos in foroti, ac motul folosuwosla. Mwet palu pa atronmutun mwet uh, a God El lohsrala mutalos.
11 All vision has become to you like the words of a book that is sealed, which men deliver to one who is educated, saying, "Read this, please;" and he says, "I can't, for it is sealed:"
Kalmen aruruma nukewa mwet palu uh liye ac fah wikinyukla nu suwos — ac fah oana sie book limlim siliyuki. Kowos fin us nu sin sie mwet su etu rit ac siyuk sel elan riti nu suwos, el ac fahk mu el tia ku mweyen siliyuki.
12 and the book is delivered to one who is not educated, saying, "Read this, please;" and he says, "I can't read."
Kowos fin sang nu sin sie mwet su nikin rit ac siyuk elan riti nu suwos, el ac topuk mu, “Nga nikin rit.”
13 And the LORD said, "Because these people draw near with their mouth and honor me with their lips, but they have removed their heart far from me. And in vain do they worship me, teaching instructions that are the commandments of humans.
Leum El fahk, “Mwet inge fahk mu elos alu nu sik, a kas lalos wangin kalmeya, ac insialos loesla likiyu. Wangin sripen alu lalos — elos fahsrna ke ma sap ac oakwuk ma orekla sin mwet, ma elos kaliya mukena.
14 Therefore, look, I will again do a marvelous work among this people, even a marvelous work and a wonder; and I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the discernment of the discerning I will nullify."
Ke ma inge nga fah aklutyalosyak ke kutu ma elos tiana motko mu ac ku in sikyak. Elos su lalmwetmet fah ekla lalfon, ac etu lalos nukewa fah wangin sripa.”
15 Woe to those who deeply hide their counsel from the LORD, and whose works are in the dark, and who say, "Who sees us?" and "Who knows us?"
We nu selos su srike in okanla pwapa lalos liki LEUM GOD! Elos orala pwapa lalos in lukma ac nunku mu wangin sie fah liyalos ku etu ma elos oru.
16 You turn things upside down. Should the potter be thought to be like clay; that the thing made should say about him who made it, "He did not make me;" or the thing formed say of him who formed it, "He has no understanding?"
Elos ekulla ma nukewa. Su kac yohk sripa uh: mwet orek ahlu ke kle, ku kle uh? Mwet se fin orala sie ma, ya ma se el orala uh ku in fahk nu sel, “Tia kom pa oreyula”? ku “Kom tia etu ma kom oru an”?
17 Isn't it yet a very little while, and Lebanon will be turned into a fruitful field, and the fruitful field will be regarded as a forest?
Oasr sie kas fahk mu, “Ac tia paht, sie insak matol ac fah ekla acn in ima, ac acn in ima fah ekla insak matol.”
18 In that day, the deaf will hear the words of the scroll, and the eyes of the blind will see out of obscurity and out of darkness.
In len sac, mwet sulohngkas ac fah ku in lohng ke sie book ac ritiyuk, ac mwet kun su muta in lohsr fah ikakla mutalos ac elos ku in liye.
19 The humble also will increase their joy in the LORD, and the poor among humankind will rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.
LEUM GOD El ac aksasuye engan lun mwet pusisel, ac mwet sukasrup ac fah enganak sin El su mutal lun Israel.
20 For the ruthless is brought to nothing, and the scoffer ceases, and all those who are alert to do evil are cut off—
Ac fah pa inge saflaiyen mwet su akkeokye mwet uh ac aklusrongtenya God. Mwet koluk nukewa ac fah kunausyukla.
21 who cause a person to be indicted by a word, and lay a snare for the arbiter in the gate, and who deprive the innocent of justice with false testimony.
God El ac kunausla mwet su kinauk kas kikiap lain mwet suwoha, payapa elos su oru tuh in wangin kaiyuk nu sin mwet kunaus ma sap, ac elos su fahk kas kikiap in akkolukye mwet su oru ma pwaye pwanang elos tia eis nununku suwohs.
22 Therefore thus says the LORD, who redeemed Abraham, concerning the house of Jacob: "Jacob shall no longer be ashamed, neither shall his face grow pale.
Ouinge LEUM GOD lun Israel, su molella Abraham liki mwe lokoalok nu sel, El fahk, “Mwet luk, kowos ac fah tia sifilpa aklusrongtenyeyuk, ac motowos fah tia sifil ngetnget in tonong ke mwekin.
23 But when he sees his children, the work of my hands, in the midst of him, they will sanctify my name. Yes, they will sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and will stand in awe of the God of Israel.
Pacl se kowos liye tulik ma nga ac sot nutuwos, na kowos ac akilen lah nga God mutal lun Israel. Kowos fah akfulatyeyu ac arulana sunakinyu.
24 They also who err in spirit will come to understanding, and those who grumble will receive instruction."
Mwet tafongla fah etala ma pwaye, ac elos su lungsena torkaskas ac fah engan in lutiyuk elos.”
