< Jeremiah 49 >

1 Of the children of Ammon. The LORD says: “Has Israel no sons? Has he no heir? Why then does Malcam possess Gad, and his people dwell in its cities?
Pa inge ma LEUM GOD El fahk ke mwet Ammon: “Pia mukul Israel uh? Ya wangin mwet in tuyak loango facl selos? Fuka tuh mwet ma alu nu sel Molech elos tuku eisla acn sin sruf lal Gad ac oakwuki we?
2 Therefore behold, the days come,” says the LORD, “that I will cause an alarm of war to be heard against Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and it will become a desolate heap, and her daughters will be burnt with fire; then Israel will possess those who possessed him,” says the LORD.
Tusruktu pacl se ac fah tuku ke nga fah oru mwet in siti fulat Rabbah in lohng kusen mweun, na acn we ac fah sikiyukla, ac inkul we ac fah firirla nwe ke apatla. Na mwet Israel fah sifil eisla acn selos ma mwet Ammon tuh eisla.
3 “Wail, Heshbon, for Ai is laid waste! Cry, you daughters of Rabbah! Clothe yourself in sackcloth. Lament, and run back and forth amongst the fences; for Malcam will go into captivity, his priests and his princes together.
Mwet Heshbon, kowos in wowoyak tung! Acn Ai kunausyukla! Mutan Rabbah, kowos in eoksra! Nokomang nuknuk yohk eoa ac muta in asor, ac sifacna sringil monuwos. Molech, god lowos, fah utukla nu in sruoh, wi mwet tol ac mwet fulat lal.
4 Why do you boast in the valleys, your flowing valley, backsliding daughter? You trusted in her treasures, saying, ‘Who will come to me?’
Kowos mwet sesuwos, efu kowos ku konkin? Ku lowos uh sriksrikeni. Efu ku kowos lulalfongi ku lowos sifacna, ac fahk mu wangin mwet ac pulaik in mweuni kowos?
5 Behold, I will bring a terror on you,” says the Lord, GOD of Armies, “from all who are around you. All of you will be driven completely out, and there will be no one to gather together the fugitives.
Nga fah use mwe aksangeng nu fowos liki acn nukewa. Kowos nukewa fah kaingelik. Kais sie fah kaing in suk moul lal, ac wangin sie fah ku in orani mwet mweun lowos uh.
6 “But afterward I will reverse the captivity of the children of Ammon,” says the LORD.
Tusruktu tok, nga fah oru mwet Ammon in sifil kapkapak. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
7 Of Edom, the LORD of Armies says: “Is wisdom no more in Teman? Has counsel perished from the prudent? Has their wisdom vanished?
Pa inge ma LEUM GOD Kulana El fahk ke acn Edom: “Ya wanginla pwapa ac oakwuk wo yurin mwet Edom? Ya mwet kasru lalos tila lotelos ke ma fal elos in oru? Ya lalmwetmet nukewa lalos wanginla?
8 Flee! Turn back! Dwell in the depths, inhabitants of Dedan; for I will bring the calamity of Esau on him when I visit him.
Mwet Dedan, kowos in forla, kaing, ac wikla! Nga ac kunausla fwilin tulik natul Esau mweyen sun pacl ngan kaelos.
9 If grape gatherers came to you, would they not leave some gleaning grapes? If thieves came by night, wouldn’t they steal until they had enough?
Ke mwet uh sifani grape, elos ac likiya kutu in oanna ke oa in grape ah. Ac finne mwet pusrapasr uh ac tuku ke fong, elos ac eis na lupa elos enenu.
10 But I have made Esau bare, I have uncovered his secret places, and he will not be able to hide himself. His offspring is destroyed, with his brothers and his neighbours; and he is no more.
Tusruktu nga arulana kunausla ma nukewa lun fwilin tulik natul Esau, ac nga konauk ac kunausla acn in wikwik lalos, na elos tia ku in sifil wikla we. Mwet Edom nukewa sikiyukla. Wangin siefanna selos lula.
11 Leave your fatherless children. I will preserve them alive. Let your widows trust in me.”
Filiya tulik mukaimtal nutuwos an yuruk, ac nga fah liyalosyang. Katinmas lowos an ku in lulalfongiyu in kasrelos.
12 For the LORD says: “Behold, they to whom it didn’t pertain to drink of the cup will certainly drink; and are you he who will altogether go unpunished? You won’t go unpunished, but you will surely drink.
“Fin pa mwet su wangin mwata enenu in nim ke cup in kaiyuk, ya kowos nunku mu kowos ac tia wi sun kaiyuk? Mo, kowos enenu na in nim ke cup sac!
13 For I have sworn by myself,” says the LORD, “that Bozrah will become an astonishment, a reproach, a waste, and a curse. All its cities will be perpetual wastes.”
Nga sifacna fulahk lah siti Bozrah ac fah ekla sie acn sikiyukla ac mwet uh ac tuninfong ke liyeya. Elos ac fah sufan, ac orekmakin inen acn we oana kas in selnga. Inkul atulani nukewa ac fah oan srualana nwe tok. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
14 I have heard news from the LORD, and an ambassador is sent amongst the nations, saying, “Gather yourselves together! Come against her! Rise up to the battle!”
Na nga fahk, “Edom, nga eis sie kas sin LEUM GOD me. El supwama sie mwet in sulkakin nu sin mutunfacl uh tuh elos in orani un mwet mweun lalos ac akola in mweuni kom.
15 “For, behold, I have made you small amongst the nations, and despised amongst men.
LEUM GOD El ac oru kom in munas inmasrlon mutunfacl uh, ac elos fah pilesrekom.
16 As for your terror, the pride of your heart has deceived you, O you who dwell in the clefts of the rock, who hold the height of the hill, though you should make your nest as high as the eagle, I will bring you down from there,” says the LORD.
Inse fulat lom uh kiapwekomla, ac kom nunku mu mutunfacl saya elos sangeng sum. Kom muta fin fulu uh, yen fulat fin mangon eol uh; tusruktu kom nwe muta yen fulat oana eagle uh, LEUM GOD El ac srukkomi nwe ten. LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
17 “Edom will become an astonishment. Everyone who passes by it will be astonished, and will hiss at all its plagues.
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Lupan musalla ma ac sikyak in acn Edom ac fah arulana upa, oru elos nukewa su fahsryak we ac fah lut ac tuninfongla.
18 As in the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah and its neighbour cities,” says the LORD, “no man will dwell there, neither will any son of man live therein.
Ma ac sikyak nu ke acn Edom inge, pa pacna tuh sikyak nu ke acn Sodom ac Gomorrah ke tuh kunausyukla acn we, wi inkul nukewa ma oan raunela. Wangin mwet ac sifilpa muta we. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.
19 “Behold, he will come up like a lion from the pride of the Jordan against the strong habitation; for I will suddenly make them run away from it, and whoever is chosen, I will appoint him over it. For who is like me? Who will appoint me a time? Who is the shepherd who will stand before me?”
Oana ke soko lion ac sasma liki insak matol sisken Infahl Jordan yak nu ke inima folfol insroa, nga fah tuku ac oru mwet Edom in sa kaing liki facl selos. Na mwet kol se nga sulela uh ac fah leumi facl sac. Su ku in lumweyuk nu sik? Su pulaik in kisrungyu? Ma ya mwet leum se ac lainyu?
20 Therefore hear the counsel of the LORD, that he has taken against Edom, and his purposes that he has purposed against the inhabitants of Teman: Surely they will drag them away, the little ones of the flock. Surely he will make their habitation desolate over them.
Ouinge, porongo oakwuk ma nga oru in lain mwet Edom, ac ma nga akoo in oru nu sin mwet in siti Teman. Finne tulik natulos, ac amala som, ac mwet nukewa ac fah tuninfongla.
21 The earth trembles at the noise of their fall; there is a cry, the noise which is heard in the Red Sea.
Pacl se Edom ac putatla uh, kusa uh ac arulana yohk, pwanang faclu nufon kusrusryak, ac pusren tuninfong lun mwet uh ac fah lohngyuk oe yen loessula, sun Meoa Srusra.
22 Behold, he will come up and fly as the eagle, and spread out his wings against Bozrah. The heart of the mighty men of Edom at that day will be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.
Mwet lokoalok ac fah mweuni Bozrah oana sie eagle asroelik paol ac pwesroulme. Ke len sac, mwet mweun lun Edom ac fah sangeng oana sie mutan ac isus.”
23 Of Damascus: “Hamath and Arpad are confounded, for they have heard evil news. They have melted away. There is sorrow on the sea. It can’t be quiet.
Pa inge ma LEUM GOD El fahk ke acn Damascus: “Mwet in siti Hamath ac Arpad elos fosrnga ac sensen mweyen elos lohng pweng koluk. Mwe sensen afnulosi oana pulkulak lun noa meoa, ac elos tia ku in mongla.
24 Damascus has grown feeble, she turns herself to flee, and trembling has seized her. Anguish and sorrows have taken hold of her, as of a woman in travail.
Mwet Damascus elos munaslana, ac elos nukewa kaing. Elos fosrnga ac sensen ac keok, oana sie mutan in pacl in isus.
25 How is the city of praise not forsaken, the city of my joy?
Siti se ma tuh pwengpeng ac engan meet, inge wanginla mwet muta we.
26 Therefore her young men will fall in her streets, and all the men of war will be brought to silence in that day,” says the LORD of Armies.
Ke len sac, mwet fusr lal ac fah anwuki inkanek lun siti uh, ac mwet mweun lal nukewa sikiyukla.
27 “I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus, and it will devour the palaces of Ben Hadad.”
Nga fah esukak pot lun Damascus, ac nga fah furreak inkul fulat sel Tokosra Benadad. Nga, LEUM GOD Kulana, pa fahk ma inge.”
28 Of Kedar, and of the kingdoms of Hazor, which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon struck, The LORD says: “Arise, go up to Kedar, and destroy the children of the east.
Pa inge ma LEUM GOD El fahk ke sruf Kedar ac facl ma karinginyuk sin acn Hazor, su tuh kutangyukla sel Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar lun Babylonia: “Mweuni mwet Kedar, ac sukela sruf se ingan su muta in acn kutulap!
29 They will take their tents and their flocks. they will carry away for themselves their curtains, all their vessels, and their camels; and they will cry to them, ‘Terror on every side!’
Sruokya lohm nuknuk selos ac un kosro natulos, mwe lisrlisr ke lohm nuknuk selos ac ma nukewa in lohm selos. Eisla camel natulos ac fahk nu sin mwet uh, ‘Kowos rauniyukla ke mwe aksangeng!’
30 Flee! Wander far off! Dwell in the depths, you inhabitants of Hazor,” says the LORD; “for Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has taken counsel against you, and has conceived a purpose against you.
“Mwet Hazor, nga LEUM GOD, sensenkakin kowos tuh kowos in kaingla nu yen loessula ac wikla. Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar lun Babylonia el orek pwapa in lain kowos, ac pa inge ma el fahk,
31 Arise! Go up to a nation that is at ease, that dwells without care,” says the LORD; “that has neither gates nor bars, that dwells alone.
‘Tuyak, som mweuni mwet ingo su muta in misla ac wangin fosrnga lalos! Acn selos wangin mutunpot, wangin pac polosak in sang kaliya, ac wangin facl apkuran nu yorolos.
32 Their camels will be a booty, and the multitude of their livestock a plunder. I will scatter to all winds those who have the corners of their beards cut off; and I will bring their calamity from every side of them,” says the LORD.
“Eisla camel ac cow nukewa natulos! Mwet ingan su kalla insifalos fototo, nga fah luselosla nu yen nukewa. Nga fah oru tuh ongoiya in tuku nu faclos yen nukewa me.
33 Hazor will be a dwelling place of jackals, a desolation forever. No man will dwell there, neither will any son of man live therein.”
Acn Hazor ac fah sie acn mwesis nwe tok, sie acn ma kosro inima mukena muta we. Wangin mwet ac sifilpa muta we. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
34 The LORD’s word that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning Elam, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying,
Tia paht tukun Zedekiah el tokosrala lun Judah, LEUM GOD Kulana El kaskas nu sik ke acn Elam.
35 “The LORD of Armies says: ‘Behold, I will break the bow of Elam, the chief of their might.
El fahk, “Nga fah uniya mwet pisr nukewa su oru Elam arulana ku.
36 I will bring on Elam the four winds from the four quarters of the sky, and will scatter them towards all those winds. There will be no nation where the outcasts of Elam will not come.
Nga fah oru eng uh in tuhyak lain Elam liki acn nukewa, ac nga fah akfahsryelik mwet lal nu yen nukewa, nwe ke wangin sie mutunfacl ma elos tia kaingelik nu we.
37 I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies, and before those who seek their life. I will bring evil on them, even my fierce anger,’ says the LORD; ‘and I will send the sword after them, until I have consumed them.
Nga fah oru mwet Elam elos in sangeng sin mwet lokoalok lalos, su lungse onelosi. In kasrkusrak lulap luk, nga fah kunausla mwet Elam ac supwala un mwet mweun lainulos nwe ke nga sukelosla nufon.
38 I will set my throne in Elam, and will destroy from there king and princes,’ says the LORD.
Nga fah kunausla tokosra ac mwet kol lalos, ac nga fah tulokunak tron luk we.
39 ‘But it will happen in the latter days that I will reverse the captivity of Elam,’ says the LORD.”
Tusruktu tok nga fah oru mwet Elam in sifilpa kapkapak. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
