Jeremiah 7
1 The word that came unto Jeremiah, from Yahweh saying: —
Kas inge tuku nu sel Jeremiah sin LEUM GOD:
2 Stand thou in the gate of the house of Yahweh, and thou shalt proclaim there this word, —and shalt say—Hear ye the word of Yahweh all Judah ye who are entering in at these gates, to bow down unto Yahweh:
“Tu ke mutunpot in lohm sin LEUM GOD ac sulkakin kas inge we, fahkang: Lohng kas lun LEUM GOD, kowos mwet Judah nukewa, kowos su ilyak ke mutunpot inge in alu nu sel.
3 Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts God of Israel, Amend your ways, and your doings, —That I may cause you to dwell in this place.
Ouinge LEUM GOD Kulana, God lun Israel, El fahk: Ekulla ouiyen moul lowos ac ma kowos oru, ac nga fah lela kowos in mutana in facl suwos.
4 Do not, on your part trust in false words, saying, —The temple of Yahweh The temple of Yahweh, The temple of Yahweh they are!
Nimet lulalfongi kas ma mwet uh kiapwekowos kac, fahk mu, ‘Ac wangin ongoiya nu sesr! Tempul lun LEUM GOD pa inge! Tempul lun LEUM GOD pa inge!’ Tempul lun LEUM GOD pa inge!’
5 But, if ye shall thoroughly amend, your ways, and your doings, —Shall thoroughly execute justice between a man and his neighbour;
“Ekulla ouiyen moul lowos ac tui liki ma kowos oru ingan. Oru in fal ac suwohs ma kowos oru nu sin sie sin sie.
6 The sojourner, the fatherless, and the widow, shall not oppress, And innocent blood, shall not shed in this place, —And after other gods, shall not walk to your own hurt,
Tui liki inkanek kutasrik nu sin mwetsac, mwet mukaimtal, ac katinmas. Tui liki akmuseyen mwet wangin mwata in facl se inge. Tui liki alu nu sin god saya, tuh ma inge ac pwanang in kunausyukla kowos.
7 Then will I cause you to dwell In this place, In the land which I gave to your fathers, —From one age even unto another,
Kowos fin ekla, nga ac lela kowos in mutana in facl se inge su nga sang nu sin papa matu tomowos tuh in ma selos nwe tok.
8 Lo! ye, on your part, are trusting in false words, —To no profit!
“Liye, kowos filiya lulalfongi lowos in kas kikiap ma wangin sripa.
9 Are ye to steal, commit murder and commit adultery, and swear falsely, and burn incense unto Baal, —and walk after other gods whom ye have not known;
Kowos pisrapasr, akmas, kunaus wuleang in marut, oru fulahk kikiap, orek kisa nu sin Baal, ac alu nu sin god ma kowos tia etu meet.
10 And will ye then come in and stand before me in this house whereon my Name hath been called, and say, —We have set ourselves free, —for the purpose of committing all these abominations?
Kowos oru ma nga srunga inge, tari kowos tuku tu ye mutuk in Tempul sik sifacna, ac fahk, ‘Ac wangin ongoiya nu sesr!’
11 A den of robbers, hath this house on which my Name hath been called become in your own eyes? I, also, —lo! I have seen it Declareth Yahweh.
Ya kowos nunku mu Tempul sik sie acn in wikwik lun mwet pisrapasr? Nga liyena ma kowos oru an.
12 For go I pray you, unto my place which was in Shiloh, Where I made my Name to dwell, at first, —And see what I did to it, because of the wickedness of my people Israel!
Kowos som nu Shiloh, acn se oemeet nga sulela tuh mwet in alu nu sik we, ac liye ma nga oru we ke sripen ma koluk lun Israel, mwet luk.
13 Now, therefore—Because ye have done all these deeds Declareth Yahweh, —And though I spake unto you betimes speaking, Yet ye hearkened not, And though I cried unto you Yet ye answered not,
Kowos oru ma koluk inge nukewa, ac nga finne kalwenina in kaskas na kaskas, kowos tia lungse lohng. Pacl nga pangon kowos, kowos tiana topuk.
14 Therefore will I do to the house Whereon my Name hath been called Wherein, ye, are trusting, Even to the place which I gave to you and to your fathers, —Just as I did unto Shiloh;
Ke ma inge, ma nga tuh oru in acn Shiloh nga fah oru pac nu ke Tempul sik inge, su yohk lulalfongi lowos kac. In acn se inge su nga tuh sang nu sin mwet matu lowos ac oayapa nu suwos, nga ac fah oru oapana ma nga tuh oru in acn Shiloh.
15 And will cast you out from before me, —Just as I have cast out All your brethren, All the seed of Ephraim.
Nga fah liskowosla liki ye mutuk, oana ke nga lusla Israel, sou lowos. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
16 Thou, therefore—Do not pray for this people Neither lift up for them cry or prayer Neither intercede with me, —For I am not going to hear thee.
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Jeremiah, nimet kom pre ke mwet inge. Nimet tung ku pre nu sik kaclos; nimet kwafe nu sik in kasrelos, mweyen nga ac tia porongekom.
17 Dost thou not see what, they, are doing In the cities of Judah, —and In the streets of Jerusalem?
Ya kom tia liye ma elos oru in siti lun Judah ac inkanek lun Jerusalem?
18 The children, gather wood, and The fathers, kindle the fire, and The women, knead dough, —To make sacrificial cakes to the queen of the heavens, And to pour out drink-offerings to other gods, Provoking me to anger!
Tulik uh ti etong, ac papa uh ta e, ac mutan uh aryar flao in orek bread nu sin god mutan se su elos pangon Kasra lun Kusrao. Elos oayapa okwok wain in mwe sang lalos nu sin god saya in aktoasryeyu.
19 Is it me, they are provoking? Enquireth Yahweh, —Is it not themselves, —unto the shame of their own faces?
Tusruktu, ya nga pa elos aktoasrye uh? Mo, elos aktoasryalos sifacna, ac sifacna akmwekinyalos.
20 Wherefore, Thus, saith My Lord Yahweh—Lo! mine anger and mine indignation, are about to be poured out upon this place, On man and on beast, and On the tree of the field and On the fruit of the ground, —And it shall burn and shall not be quenched.
Ke ma inge nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, fah okoala kasrkusrak lulap luk nu fin Tempul se inge. Nga fah ukuiya nu fin mwet ac kosro oana sie, oayapa nu fin ma yukwiyuki ac sak inimae. Kasrkusrak luk ac fah oana sie e ma wangin mwet ku in konela.
21 Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts God of Israel, —Your ascending-offerings, add ye unto your peace-offerings and eat ye flesh.
“Mwet luk, kutu kisa lowos uh kowos furreak fin loang uh, ac kutu filfilla in mwe mongo. Tusruktu nga, LEUM GOD Kulana, God lun Israel, fahk mu mansis kowos in kangla kewa.
22 For I bade not your fathers Neither commanded I them, In the day I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, —Concerning the matter of ascending-offering and peace-offering;
Ke nga tuh usla mwet matu lowos liki facl Egypt, wangin ma sap nga sang nu selos ke mwe kisa firir, ku ke kutepacna kain in mwe kisa.
23 But, this thing, I commanded them—saying, Hearken ye unto my voice, So will I become unto you—a God, And, ye, shall become unto me—a people, —Ye shall therefore walk in all the way that I may command you, To the end it may be well with you;
Ma nga sapkin nu selos pa elos in akosyu, tuh nga fah God lalos ac elos fah mwet luk. Ac nga fahkang nu selos in moul fal nu ke ma sap luk, tuh ma nukewa fah wo nu selos.
24 Yet they hearkened not Neither inclined their ear, But walked, In the counsels—In the stubbornness of their own wicked heart; And went backward, and not forward.
Tusruktu elos tiana akos ku porongeyu. Elos likkekena ac oru oana lungse koluk lalos sifacna — pwanang elos tia wola a elos kolukla liki meet.
25 Ever since the day that your fathers came forth out of the land of Egypt, until this day, Have I sent unto you all my servants the prophets, Daily, betimes, sending them;
Mutawauk ke len se mwet matu lowos illa liki facl Egypt nwe misenge, nga nuna supuna nu yuruwos mwet kulansap luk, mwet palu.
26 Yet they hearkened not unto me, Neither inclined their ear, —But stiffened their neck, They did more wickedly than their fathers.
Ne ouinge, tia sie porongalos ku lohang nu ke kas lalos. A kowos likkekelana ac orekma koluk yohk liki mwet matu lowos.
27 Therefore shalt thou speak unto them all these words, Though they do not hearken unto thee, —And thou shalt cry aloud unto them Though they do not answer thee; —
“Ke ma inge, Jeremiah, kom ac fahk kas inge nukewa nu sin mwet luk, a elos ac tiana porongekom. Kom ac pang nu selos, a elos ac tia topuk.
28 But thou shalt say unto them, —This, is the nation that hearkened not unto the voice of Yahweh its God, Neither accepted they correction, —Perished is fidelity, And is cut off out of their mouth.
Kom fah fahk nu selos lah mutunfacl selos uh tiana akosyu, LEUM GOD lalos. Kaiyuk elos, a elos tiana ekla. Wanginla inse pwaye, ac tia pacna sramsramkinyuk.
29 Cut thou off thy crown of hair [O Jerusalem], and cast it away, And lift thou up on the bare heights, a dirge, —For Yahweh hath rejected and cast out the generation with which he was wroth.
“Mwet Jerusalem, kowos in tung; Kowos in kalla aunsifowos ac sisla. Onkakin soko on in pukmas fin mangon eol uh, Mweyen nga, LEUM GOD, nga kasrkusrak, Ac nga sisla mwet luk.
30 For the sons of Judah, have done, that which was wicked in mine eyes, Declareth Yahweh, —They have set their abominations in the house whereon my Name hath been called to defile it;
“Mwet Judah elos orala sie ma na koluk. Elos likiya ma sruloala lalos, ma nga srunga, in Tempul sik, pwanang Tempul uh taekla.
31 And they have built the high places of Topheth, which is in the valley of the son of Hinnom, To burn up their sons and their daughters in the fire, —Which I commanded not, Neither came it up on my heart,
Ke Infahlfal Hinnom elos etoak sie loang su pangpang Topheth, tuh elos in ku in kisakin tulik mukul ac tulik mutan natulos fin e. Nga tia sapkin elos in oru ma inge — nga tia pacna nunkauk lumah ouinge.
32 Therefore, lo! days are coming, Declareth Yahweh, When it shall not be called any more—The Topheth, nor The valley of Ben-hinnom, but The valley of Slaughter, —And they shall bury in Topheth, for want of place;
Ke ma inge, oasr pacl se ac fah tuku, ke ac fah tia sifilpa pangpang acn se inge Topheth ku Infahlfal Hinnom, a ac fah pangpang Infahlfal in Uniya. Elos fah pikinya mwet misa we nwe ke na lisr acn in pukmas.
33 And the dead bodies of this people shall become food, For the bird of the heavens, and For the beast of the earth, —And there shall be none to drive them away.
Monin mwet misa uh ac fah mwe mongo nun won ac kosro lemnak, mweyen ac wangin mwet in luselosla.
34 So will I cause to cease, From the cities of Judah, and, From the streets of Jerusalem, The voice of joy, and the voice of gladness, The voice of the bridegroom, and The voice of the bride, —For, a desolation, shall the land become.
Facl sac ac fah ekla nu ke sie acn mwesis. In siti lun Judah ac inkanek Jerusalem nga fah aksafyela pusren engan ac insewowo, ac oayapa ac fah wanginla engneyen marut uh.
