Isaiah 23
1 The oracle on Tyre, —Howl! ye ships of Tarshish, For it is laid too waste to be a haven to enter, From the land of Cyprus, hath it been unveiled to them.
Kas in fahkak inge ma ke acn Tyre. Wowoyak ac asor, kowos mwet kalkal fin meoa! Acn suwos, Tyre, kunausyukla; lohm we ac molsron we wanginla. Ke oak okowos ac foloko liki acn Cyprus, kowos ac fah lohng pweng kac.
2 Be dumb, ye inhabitants of the Coast, —Whom the merchants of Zidon, passing over the sea, once replenished;
Kowos in tung mwemelil, kowos mwet kuka lun Sidon! Kowos supu mwet
3 Yea on mighty waters, was the grain of Shihor, The harvest of the Nile, was her increase, —And so she became a mart of nations.
in tupalla meoa in moli ac kukakin wheat ma kap ke acn Shihor sisken infacl Nile in acn Egypt, ac in oru inkanek in kuka lalos yurin mutunfacl puspis.
4 Turn thou pale, O Zidon, For spoken hath the sea, the fortress of the sea saying, —I have neither been in pangs nor given birth I have neither brought up young men nor promoted virgins.
Siti Sidon, kom akmwekinyeyukla! Meoa ac acn loallana meoa siskomla ac fahk, “Wanginna tulik nga oswela. Nga soenna tufahla wen ku acn.”
5 Like the report of Egypt, They shall be in pangs at the like report of Tyre.
Finne mwet Egypt elos ac fah lut ac oela pacl se elos lohng lah kunausyukla acn Tyre.
6 Pass ye over to Tarshish, —Howl ye inhabitants of the Coast:
Mwet Phoenicia, kowos in wowoyak ac tung! Srike in kaing nu Tarshish!
7 Is this to you an exultation? Though from ancient days, is her antiquity, Yet shall her own feet carry her away, far off to dwell.
Mea pwaye lah pa inge Tyre, siti na pwar se ma musaiyukla ke pacl na loes somla? Ya pa inge siti se ma supwala mwet in tupalla meoa ac eis acn ingo tuh in acn selos?
8 Who hath purposed this, against Tyre, The bestower of crowns, —Whose merchants are princes, Her traders the honourable of the earth?
Su lumahla tuh mwe ongoiya inge nukewa in sikyak nu fin acn Tyre, siti fulat sac, su mwet kuka we elos fisrak ac akfulatyeyuk emeet fin faclu?
9 Yahweh of hosts, hath purposed it, —To humble the pride of all beauty, To make of little esteem all the honourable of the earth.
LEUM GOD Kulana pa lumahla. El oru in tulokinya filang lalos ke ma elos orala, ac in aktonongyala mwet fulat lalos.
10 Pass through thy land as the Nile, —O daughter of Tarshish, there is no restraint any longer!
Fahla ac orek ima, kowos mwet Tyre su muta in acn Tarshish! Wangin sie ac fah sifil loangekowos.
11 His hand, hath he stretched out over the sea, He hath shaken kingdoms, —Yahweh, hath given command against the Phoenician coast, To destroy her fortresses.
LEUM GOD El asroela paol fin meoa ac kutangla tokosrai uh. El sap tuh pot ku lun Phoenicia in kunausyukla.
12 Therefore hath he said, —No more, again, do thou exult, Thou violated virgin daughter of Zidon, —To Cyprus, arise and pass over, Even there, shall one find thee no rest.
Siti Sidon, insewowo lom safla, ac mwet lom akkeokyeyuk. Elos finne kaing nu Cyprus, elos ac tiana konauk misla we.
13 Lo! the land of the Chaldeans, This is the people that was not, Assyria, founded it for the inhabitants of the desert, —They set up its siege-towers, They demolished its palaces Made it a ruin!
(Tia mwet Assyria pa oru kosro lemnak uh in utyak ac nwakla acn Tyre, a mwet Babylonia. Mwet Babylonia pa tulokunak nien fan sisken pot we, ac fukulya acn ku lun Tyre, ac sisla in oan musalla.)
14 Howl, ye ships of Tarshish, —For laid waste is your fortress.
Wowoyak ac asor, kowos mwet kalkal meoa uh! Kunausyukla siti se ma kowos kukin.
15 So shall it be in that day, That Tyre shall be forgotten seventy years, According to the days of a certain king: At the end of seventy years, shall it befall Tyre according to the song of the harlot:
Pacl se ac tuku ke acn Tyre ac mulkinyukla ke yac itngoul, lusenna moul lun sie tokosra. Ke ac safla yac inge, acn Tyre ac fah oana mutan kosro se ke on soko ma fahk mu:
16 Take thou a lyre, Go round the city, O harlot forgotten, —Sweetly touch the strings Lengthen out the song, That thou mayest be called to mind.
Kom, mutan kosro se ma mulkinyukla, Eis harp nutum ac forfor in siti uh! Srital ac sifilpa onkakin on lom In sifil esamyukyak kom.
17 So shall it be, at the end of seventy years, That Yahweh will visit Tyre, And she will return to her hire, —Yea she will play the harlot—with all the kingdoms of the earth, upon the face of the ground.
Ke yac itngoul ac safla, LEUM GOD El ac lela Tyre in folokla nu ke inkanek in kuka matu lal, ac el ac fah kukakunulla sifacna nu sin tokosrai nukewa lun faclu.
18 But her merchandise and her hire, shall be hallowed unto Yahweh, It shall not be stored up, nor hoarded, —For, to them who dwell before Yahweh, shall her merchandise belong, That they may eat to satisfaction And have stately apparel.
Mani ma el sruokya ke kuka lal uh ac fah kisaiyukyang nu sin LEUM GOD. Acn Tyre ac fah tia elosak ma inge nu sel sifacna ku filiya in nien filma lal, a ac fah orekmakinyuk in kasrelos su lafwekunulosla nu sin LEUM GOD, in akfalye enenu lalos ke mwe mongo ac nuknuk lalos.
