Jeremiah 22
1 The LORD said, “Go down to the house of the king of Judah, and speak this word there:
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik nga in tufokla nu in lohm sin tokosra lun Judah, ac fahk kas inge:
2 ‘Hear the LORD’s word, king of Judah, who sits on David’s throne—you, your servants, and your people who enter in by these gates.
“Lohng kas lun LEUM GOD, O tokosra lun Judah su muta fin tron lal David — kom, ac mwet pwapa fulat lom, ac mwet Jerusalem nukewa su ilyak ke mutunpot inge.
3 The LORD says: “Execute justice and righteousness, and deliver him who is robbed out of the hand of the oppressor. Do no wrong. Do no violence to the foreigner, the fatherless, or the widow. Don’t shed innocent blood in this place.
Nga, LEUM GOD, sapkin nu suwos in oru ma suwohs ac pwaye. Karinganang mwet ma pisreyukla ma la liki inpoun mwet pisrapasr. Nimet akkolukye ku akkeokye mwetsac, mwet mukaimtal ac katinmas, oayapa nimet uniya mwet wangin mwata in acn mutal se inge.
4 For if you do this thing indeed, then kings sitting on David’s throne will enter in by the gates of this house, riding in chariots and on horses—they, their servants, and their people.
Kowos fin oru oana ma nga sapkin, na ac fah oasr tokosra tuku ke fwilin tulik natul David nwe tok. Elos, ac mwet fulat lalos ac mwet nukewa lalos saya, fah uti-utyak ke mutunpot lun inkul fulat ke chariot ac fin horse uh.
5 But if you will not hear these words, I swear by myself,” says the LORD, “that this house will become a desolation.”’”
Tusruktu kowos fin tia akos ma nga sapkin inge, na nga fulahk ke Inek sifacna lah inkul fulat se inge fah sikiyukla. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.
6 For the LORD says concerning the house of the king of Judah: “You are Gilead to me, the head of Lebanon. Yet surely I will make you a wilderness, cities which are not inhabited.
“In nunak luk, inkul fulat sin tokosra lun Judah oasku oana acn Gilead, ac oana eol in acn Lebanon. Tusruktu nga ac oru tuh in sie acn oan musalla ma wangin mwet muta we.
7 I will prepare destroyers against you, everyone with his weapons, and they will cut down your choice cedars, and cast them into the fire.
Nga ac supwala mwet in kunausya. Elos ac us tuhla lalos ac pakiya sru cedar kato we, ac sisla nu in e uh.
8 “Many nations will pass by this city, and they will each ask his neighbour, ‘Why has the LORD done this to this great city?’
“Na toko, mwet in mutunfacl puspis fah fahsr aliki ac asiyuki sie sin sie lah efu ku nga, LEUM GOD, oru ouinge nu ke siti pwengpeng se inge.
9 Then they will answer, ‘Because they abandoned the covenant of the LORD their God, worshipped other gods, and served them.’”
Na elos fah topuk mu mweyen kowos fahsr sayen wuleang lowos yurin God lowos ke kowos alu ac kulansupu god saya.”
10 Don’t weep for the dead. Don’t bemoan him; but weep bitterly for him who goes away, for he will return no more, and not see his native country.
Mwet Judah, nimet tungel Tokosra Josaiah; Kowos in tia eoksra ke misa lal. A kowos in arulana tung kacl Joahas, wen natul. Elos ac usalla, ac el ac tia sifil foloko. El ac tiana sifilpa liye acn el isusla we.
11 For the LORD says touching Shallum the son of Josiah, king of Judah, who reigned instead of Josiah his father, and who went out of this place: “He won’t return there any more.
LEUM GOD El fahk kacl Joahas su aolla Josiah, papa tumal, in tokosra Judah, “El som liki acn inge, ac el ac tiana sifil foloko.
12 But he will die in the place where they have led him captive. He will see this land no more.”
El ac misa in facl se elos usalla nu we, ac el ac tia sifil liye facl se inge.”
13 “Woe to him who builds his house by unrighteousness, and his rooms by injustice; who uses his neighbour’s service without wages, and doesn’t give him his hire;
We nu sin mwet se su musai lohm sel ke sesuwos Ac akyokye ke inkanek kutasrik, Su akkohsye mwet in facl sel in orekma nu sel Ac tia sang molin orekma lalos.
14 who says, ‘I will build myself a wide house and spacious rooms,’ and cuts out windows for himself, with a cedar ceiling, and painted with red.
We nu sin mwet se ma fahk, “Nga ac musaela sie lohm lulap nu sik sifacna Ac oru tuh infukil lucng uh in yohk.” Ouinge el orala winto in lohm sel Ac sinkaeak acn loac ke sak cedar, Ac sroalela ke sroal srusra.
15 “Should you reign because you strive to excel in cedar? Didn’t your father eat and drink, and do justice and righteousness? Then it was well with him.
Ya ma inge ac oru tuh kom in sie tokosra wo Kom fin musa lohm ke sak cedar Ma wo liki lohm sin mwet ngia? Papa tomom el insewowo ke moul lal nufon. Orekma lal pwaye ac suwohs pacl nukewa, Ac el kapkapak in ma nukewa el orala.
16 He judged the cause of the poor and needy; so then it was well. Wasn’t this to know me?” says the LORD.
El oru nununku suwohs nu sin mwet sukasrup, Na ma nukewa fahsr pac wo nu sel. Pa inge kalmen etu ke LEUM GOD.
17 But your eyes and your heart are only for your covetousness, for shedding innocent blood, for oppression, and for doing violence.”
A kom sukna ma ac wo nu sum sifacna; Kom uniya mwet wangin mwata Ac arulana aklalfonye mwet lom. LEUM GOD pa fahk ma inge.
18 Therefore the LORD says concerning Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah: “They won’t lament for him, saying, ‘Ah my brother!’ or, ‘Ah sister!’ They won’t lament for him, saying ‘Ah lord!’ or, ‘Ah his glory!’
Ouinge LEUM GOD El fahk kacl Tokosra Jehoiakim lun Judah, wen natul Josiah, “Wangin mwet ac fah mwemelil ke misa lal, ku fahk mu, ‘Pakomuta kawuk se luk! Fuka koluk in mau!’ Wangin mwet ac fah wowoyak ac tung kacl ac fahk, ‘Leum luk, We! Tokosra, We!’
19 He will be buried with the burial of a donkey, drawn and cast out beyond the gates of Jerusalem.”
Ac fah orek nu sel oana misa lun soko donkey: Ac fah amala el Ac sisila likin mutunpot Jerusalem.”
20 “Go up to Lebanon, and cry out. Lift up your voice in Bashan, and cry from Abarim; for all your lovers have been destroyed.
Mwet Jerusalem, fahla nu Lebanon ac wowoyak, Fahla nu facl Bashan ac tung; Som ac wowoyak infulan eol Moab, Mweyen kutangyukla mutunfacl nukewa su kasrekom ke pacl in mweun.
21 I spoke to you in your prosperity, but you said, ‘I will not listen.’ This has been your way from your youth, that you didn’t obey my voice.
LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sum ke pacl kom srak mut, A kom tia lungse porongo. Pa ingan ouiyom in moul lom nufon — Kom tiana akos LEUM GOD.
22 The wind will feed all your shepherds, and your lovers will go into captivity. Surely then you will be ashamed and confounded for all your wickedness.
Mwet kol lom ac fah ukukla ke eng; Mwet kasrekom in pacl in mweun ac utukla nu in sruoh. Siti sum ac fah aklusrongtenyeyuk ac akmwekinyeyuk Ke sripen ma koluk nukewa kom orala.
23 Inhabitant of Lebanon, who makes your nest in the cedars, how greatly to be pitied you will be when pangs come on you, the pain as of a woman in travail!
Kom mongla wo in lohm sum orekla ke sak cedar ma utuku Lebanon me; Tusruktu ac fah mwe pakomuta na yohk nu sum ke pacl se ngal upa ac sun kom — Ngal oana ngal lun sie mutan isus.
24 “As I live,” says the LORD, “though Coniah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah were the signet on my right hand, I would still pluck you from there.
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Tokosra Jehoiachin, wen natul Tokosra Jehoiakim lun Judah, “Oana ke nga pa God moul, fin kom pa ring lun tokosra ma oan lac po layot sik, nga ac faiskomla
25 I would give you into the hand of those who seek your life, and into the hand of them of whom you are afraid, even into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of the Chaldeans.
ac eiskomyang nu sin mwet ma lungse unikomi, su kom sangeng se. Nga ac eiskomyang nu sel Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar lun Babylonia ac un mwet mweun lal.
26 I will cast you out with your mother who bore you into another country, where you were not born; and there you will die.
Nga ac liskomla ac nina kiom ke ku luk tuh komtal in mwet sruoh in sie facl ma komtal kewa tia isusla we, ac komtal ac fah misa we.
27 But to the land to which their soul longs to return, there they will not return.”
Komtal ac fah kena sifilpa liye facl se inge, tusruktu komtal ac fah tiana foloko.”
28 Is this man Coniah a despised broken vessel? Is he a vessel in which no one delights? Why are they cast out, he and his offspring, and cast into a land which they don’t know?
Ac nga fahk, “Ya Tokosra Jehoiachin el oana soko sufa fokelik ma sisila ac wangin mwet enenu? Na efu ku el, ac tulik natul, utukla nu in sruoh nu ke sie facl ma elos tiana etu?”
29 O earth, earth, earth, hear the LORD’s word!
O fahl Judah, fahl Judah, fahl Judah! Porongo ma LEUM GOD El fahk:
30 The LORD says, “Record this man as childless, a man who will not prosper in his days; for no more will a man of his offspring prosper, sitting on David’s throne and ruling in Judah.”
“Filiya ke ma simusla lah ac fah wangin tulik natul Jehoiachin. Ac fah wangin ma wo el orala in pacl lal. Wangin sin fwilin tulik natul Ac fah aolulla ke tron lal David In leum fin acn Judah. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
