Jeremiah 6
1 "Flee for safety, you people of Benjamin, out of the midst of Jerusalem, and blow the trumpet in Tekoa, and raise up a signal on Beth Haccherem; for evil looks forth from the north, and a great destruction.
Kowos mwet Benjamin, kaing ac suk moul lowos! Kaingla liki Jerusalem! Ukya mwe ukuk in Tekoa, ac tanak sie e an in Beth Haccherem in sulkakin lah ongoiya ac kunausten akuranna tuku liki acn epang.
2 The comely and delicate one, the daughter of Zion, will I cut off.
Siti Zion arulana oasku, tusruktu ac fah kunausyukla;
3 Shepherds with their flocks shall come to her; they shall pitch their tents against her all around; they shall feed everyone in his place."
tokosra uh ac fah mutangan aktuktuk we wi mwet mweun lalos. Elos ac tulokunak lohm nuknuk selos rauneak siti sac, ac kais sie selos fah aktuktuk in acn na el lungse.
4 "Prepare war against her; arise, and let us go up at noon. Woe to us. For the day declines, for the shadows of the evening are stretched out.
Elos fah fahk, “Akola in mweuni Jerusalem! Tuyak, kut ac mweunel ke infulwen len!” Na elos sifilpa fahk, “Tari, arulana pahtlac. Fongeni pa inge.
5 Arise, and let us go up by night, and let us destroy her palaces."
Kut fah mweunel ofong. Kut ac kunausla pot ku lun siti uh.”
6 For the LORD of hosts said, "Cut down trees, and cast up a mound against Jerusalem. She is the city to be punished; she is full of oppression in the midst of her.
LEUM GOD Kulana El sapkin tokosra inge in pakiya kutu sak ac elosak fohkon acn uh mwe fanyak nu fin pot Jerusalem. El fahk, “Nga fah kai siti se inge mweyen yokna akkeok we.
7 As a well casts forth its waters, so she casts forth her wickedness: violence and destruction is heard in her; before me continually is sickness and wounds.
Oana ke sie lufin kof oasr kof sasu loac pacl nukewa, ouinge oasr ma koluk sasu in Jerusalem pacl nukewa. Nga lohng na ke akmas ac sulallal orek in siti uh. Pwayena ma nga liye pa mas ac kinet.
8 Be instructed, Jerusalem, lest my soul be alienated from you; lest I make you a desolation, a land not inhabited."
Mwet Jerusalem, lela mwe lokoalok inge in mwe akesmakye kowos. Fin tia, nga fah siskowosla. Nga ac ekulla siti lowos nu ke sie acn mwesis, sie acn ma wangin mwet muta we.”
9 Thus says the LORD of hosts, "They shall thoroughly glean the remnant of Israel like a vine. Pass your hand again as a grape gatherer into the baskets."
LEUM GOD Kulana El fahk nu sik, “Israel ac fah wanginla mwet we oana sie ima in grape su fahko nukewa kac uh kinkinla. Ke ma inge kom enenu in molelosla nukewa su kom ku in molela ke srakna oasr pacl.”
10 To whom shall I speak and testify, that they may hear? Look, their ear is uncircumcised, and they can't listen. Look, the word of the LORD has become a reproach to them. They have no delight in it.
Ac nga fahk, “Su ac lohngyu nga fin kaskas nu selos in akesmakyalos? Elos likkeke ac srangesr lohng kas lom. Elos isrun ma kom sap nga in fahk.
11 Therefore I am full of the wrath of the LORD. I am weary with holding in. "Pour it out on the children in the street, and on the assembly of young men together; for even the husband with the wife shall be taken, the aged with him who is full of days.
LEUM GOD, kasrkusrak lom selos firir pac in nga, ac nga koflana in sifil kutong.” Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik, “Okoala kasrkusrak luk nu fin tulik srisrik inkanek uh, ac nu fin tukeni lun mukul fusr. Ac fah utukla pac mwet payuk nukewa, wi mwet arulana matu.
12 Their houses shall be turned to others, their fields and their wives together; for I will stretch out my hand on the inhabitants of the land," says the LORD.
Lohm selos ac ima lalos ac mutan kialos ac fah itukyang nu sin kutu pac mwet. Nga ac kalyei mwet in facl se inge.
13 "For from their least even to their greatest, everyone is given to covetousness; and from the prophet even to the priest, everyone deals falsely.
Mwet nukewa, mwet fulat ac mwet srisrik, elos srike in orek mani ke inkanek kutasrik. Finne mwet palu ac mwet tol, elos kiapu pac mwet uh.
14 They have healed also the hurt of my people superficially, saying, 'Peace, peace.' when there is no peace.
Elos oru oana in ma na kuretyuki pa kinet ke mwet luk uh. Elos fahk mu, ‘Ma nukewa wo na,’ sruhk ma uh tiana wo.
15 Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? No, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush. Therefore they shall fall among those who fall; at the time that I visit them, they shall be cast down," says the LORD.
Ya elos mwekin ke elos oru ma srungayuk inge? Mo, elos tiana mwekin kutu srisrik. Elos tia pacna ngetnget in mwekin. Ke ma inge elos ac fah misa oana mwet misa tari. Pacl se nga kalyaelos uh, pa ingan saflaiyalos. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
16 Thus says the LORD, "Stand in the ways and see, and ask for the old paths, 'Where is the good way?' and walk in it, and you will find rest for your souls." But they said, "We will not walk in it."
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sin mwet lal, “Tu ke inkanek sengelik uh ac liye. Siyuk lah pia inkanek ma matu ac wo emeet uh. Fahsr kac, ac kowos fah muta in misla.” Tusruktu elos fahk, “Mo, kut ac fah tia fahsr kac!”
17 "I set watchmen over you, saying, 'Listen to the sound of the trumpet.'" But they said, "We will not listen."
Na LEUM GOD El srisrngiya mwet san in porongo ke ukuk uh ac kas. Tuh elos fahk, “Kut ac tia porongo.”
18 "Therefore hear, you nations, and know, congregation, what will happen to them.
Ke ma inge LEUM GOD El fahk, “Porongo, kowos mutunfacl uh, ac liye ma ac sikyak nu sin mwet luk.
19 Hear, earth. 'Look, I will bring disaster on this people, even the fruit of their thoughts, because they have not listened to my words; and as for my law, they have rejected it.
Lohng, O faclu! Nga ac use mwe ongoiya nu sin mwet inge in kaelos ke pwapa koluk lalos nukewa, mweyen elos srunga mwe luti luk ac tia akos kas luk.
20 To what purpose comes there to me frankincense from Sheba, and the sweet cane from a far country? Your burnt offerings are not acceptable, nor your sacrifices pleasing to me.'
Mwe mea mwe kisa keng elos use Sheba me nu yuruk, ku mwe akyuye mongo elos use yen loesla me? Nga fah tia eis mwe sang lalos, ku insewowokin mwe kisa lalos.
21 Therefore thus says the LORD, 'Look, I will lay stumbling blocks before this people. The fathers and the sons together shall stumble against them. The neighbor and his friend shall perish.'
Ke ma inge nga ac oru mwet inge in tukulkul ac ikori. Papa uh ac wen natulos ac fah misa, oayapa mwet kawuk ac mwet tulan.”
22 "Thus says the LORD, 'Look, a people comes from the north country. A great nation shall be stirred up from the uttermost parts of the earth.
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Mwet ac fah tuku liki sie facl in acn epang. Sie mutunfacl kulana yen loesla el akola nu ke mweun.
23 They take hold of bow and spear. They are cruel, and have no mercy. Their voice roars like the sea, and they ride on horses, everyone set in array, as a man to the battle, against you, daughter of Zion.'"
Elos sruok mwe pisr ac cutlass natulos; elos mwet sulallal ac wangin pakomuta lalos. Pusren kasrusr lun horse natulos oana pusren ngirngir lun meoa uh. Elos akola in mweun lain Jerusalem.”
24 "We have heard its report; our hands become feeble: anguish has taken hold of us, and pains as of a woman in labor.
Na mwet Jerusalem elos fahk, “Kut lohng tari pweng ingan, ac paosr munas ac atla; kut fosrngala ac keok oana sie mutan isus.
25 Do not go forth into the field, nor walk by the way; for the sword of the enemy and terror, are on every side."
Kut tia ku in som likin siti uh, ku forfor inkanek uh, mweyen mwet lokoalok lasr uh akoela mwe mweun natulos, ac mwe aksangeng lulap raunikutla yen nukewa.”
26 "Daughter of my people, clothe yourself with sackcloth, and wallow in ashes. Mourn, as for an only son, most bitter lamentation; for the destroyer shall suddenly come on us."
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sin mwet lal, “Nokomang nuknuk yohk eoa ac ipippip in apat uh. Kowos in arulana tung ac mwemelil oana ke wen sefanna nutuwos el misa, mweyen el su tuku in sikikowosla ac fah tuku ke pacl na sa in mweuni kowos.
27 "I have made you a tester of metals and a fortress among my people; that you may know and try their way."
Jeremiah, srike mwet luk uh oana ke kom ac srike osra uh, kom in konauk kuiyalos.
28 "They are all grievous rebels, going about with slanders; they are bronze and iron: they all of them deal corruptly.
Elos nukewa likkeke ac lainyu na. Elos keke oana osra bronze ac iron. Elos nukewa koluk. Elos forfor ac srumun kas kikiap ke mwet.
29 The bellows blow fiercely; the lead is consumed of the fire: in vain do they go on refining; for the wicked are not plucked away.
Funyu uh arulana folla, ac kutkut ke osra uh tiana kofelik in nasnasla. Ouinge wangin sripa in tayak e uh in aknasnasyela mwet luk, mweyen mwet koluk uh tiana som lukelos.
30 Men will call them 'rejected silver,' because the LORD has rejected them."
Elos ac fah pangpang kutkut wangin sripa ma sisila, mweyen nga, LEUM GOD, siselosla.”
