Ezekiel 15

1 The word of YHWH came to me, saying,

LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sik

2 "Son of man, what is the vine tree more than any tree, the vine-branch which is among the trees of the forest?

ac fahk, “Kom, mwet sukawil moul la, fuka tuh sak grape uh in wo liki kain sak nukewa saya uh? Ya oasr sripen lahn grape uh liki lahn sak lulap insak uh?

3 Shall wood be taken of it to make any work? Or will men take a pin of it to hang any vessel thereon?

Ya kom ku in orekmakin fain in orala kutena ma? Ya kom ku in orala mwe sripsrip kac in sang srupusrak mau?

4 Look, it is cast into the fire for fuel; the fire has devoured both its ends, and its midst is burned: is it profitable for any work?

Ma sefanna ac ku in orek kac, pa in sang tanak sie e ah. Muta luo ah fin firirla ac infulwa ah mulutla, ya kom ac ku in orala kutena ma kac?

5 Look, when it was whole, it was meet for no work: how much less, when the fire has devoured it, and it is burned, shall it yet be meet for any work.

Meet liki firiryak ah nuna wangin sripa; ac inge ke firiryak tari ac mulutla, wanginla na pwaye sripa.”

6 "Therefore thus says YHWH: 'As the vine tree among the trees of the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel, so will I give the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

Pa inge ma LEUM GOD Fulatlana El fahk: “Oana ke ac utuku fain liki insak uh ac isisyak, ouinge nga fah usla mwet in acn Jerusalem

7 I will set my face against them; they shall go forth from the fire, but the fire shall devour them; and you shall know that I am YHWH, when I set my face against them.

ac kalyaelos. Elos kaingkunla sie e uh, a inge sie pac e ac esukulosyak. Ke nga ac kalyaelos, kom ac fah etu lah nga pa LEUM GOD.

8 I will make the land desolate, because they have committed a trespass,' says YHWH."

Elos tia pwaye nu sik, ouinge nga fah orala facl sac in acn mwesisla.” LEUM GOD Fulatlana pa fahk ma inge.
