< Isaiah 31 >

1 Alas! for them who are going down to Egypt for help, On horses, would rely, —And have trusted—In chariots—because they are many, and In horsemen, because they are very bold, But have not looked unto the Holy One of Israel, And onto Yahweh, have not sought.
We nu selos su som nu Egypt in suk kasru! Elos lulalfongi ke ku lulap lun Egypt — ke horse ac chariot puspis, ac un mwet mweun lalos. Elos tia lulalfongi LEUM GOD mutal lun Israel, ku siyuk kasru sel.
2 But, he also, is wise, and hath brought in calamity, And his own words, hath he not set aside, —Therefore will he rise up, Against the house of evil-doers, and Against the help of the workers of iniquity.
El lalmwetmet in ma El oru! El supu mwe ongoiya. El ac akfalye kas lal in kalyei mwet koluk oayapa elos su loangelos.
3 Now, the Egyptians, are, men, and not, GOD, And, their horses, flesh, and not, spirit; When, Yahweh, shall stretch out his hand, Then, he that is giving help, shall stumble And, he that is receiving help, shall fall, And, together, shall, all of them, vanish!
Mwet Egypt uh tia god-elos mwet na. Wangin pac ku mwenmen lun horse natulos. Pacl se LEUM GOD El ac srukak ku lal, mutunfacl na ku ac fah tukulkul, ac mutunfacl munas ma kasreyuk ac ikori. Acn inge kewa ac fah kunausyukla.
4 For Thus, hath Yahweh said unto me—Like as a lion or a young lion growleth over his prey. Who—though there be called out against him a multitude of shepherds—Will not at their voice, be dismayed, Nor, at their noise, be daunted, So, will Yahweh of hosts come down, to make war over Mount Zion, and over the hill thereof.
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik, “Mwet shepherd uh finne sasa ac wowo, elos tia ku in lusla soko lion liki kosro soko ma el uniya. In ouiya sacna, wangin ma ku in tulokinyuwi, LEUM GOD Kulana, liki in loango Eol Zion.
5 As little mother-birds hovering, so, will Yahweh of hosts throw a covering over Jerusalem, —Covering, so will he rescue, Passing over, so will he deliver!
Oana ke sie won el pikpik fin ahng lal in loango ma fusr natul, ouinge nga LEUM GOD Kulana fah karingin Jerusalem ac loangel.”
6 Return ye unto him against whom the sons of Israel have deeply revolted,
God El fahk, “Mwet Israel, kowos orekma koluk lainyu ac kisrung ma nga oru. Tusruktu inge kowos foloko nu yuruk!
7 For in that day, will every man reject his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, —Which your hands had made for you as a sin!
Pacl se ac tuku ke kowos nukewa ac fah sisla ma sruloala koluk ma kowos orala ke silver ac gold.
8 Then shall the Assyrian fall, by the sword, not of a great man, And the sword, not of a mean man, shall devour him, —Howbeit he shall take his flight from the face of a sword, And his young men, shall come under tribute;
Acn Assyria ac fah kunausyukla ke mweun, ac tia ke ku lun mwet. Mwet Assyria ac fah kaing liki mweun, ac mukul fusr lalos ac fah utukla nu in kohs.
9 And his own Cliff, through terror, shall he pass by, And his princes shall be dismayed at an ensign, —Declareth Yahweh. Who hath a flame in Zion, And hath a furnace in Jerusalem.
Tokosra fulat lalos ac fah sangeng ac kaingla, ac mwet leum lalos ac fah arulana tuninfongla, oru elos ac sisla flag in mweun lalos.” LEUM GOD pa fahk ma inge — LEUM GOD su akfulatyeyuk in Jerusalem, ac su e lal firir we mwe kisa.
