Jeremiah 7
1 The word that hath been unto Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying,
Kas inge tuku nu sel Jeremiah sin LEUM GOD:
2 Stand in the gate of the house of Jehovah, and thou hast proclaimed there this word, and hast said, Hear a word of Jehovah, all ye of Judah, who are coming in at these gates, to bow before Jehovah:
“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 said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel, Amend your ways, and your doings, And I 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 trust for yourselves Unto the words of falsehood, saying, The temple of Jehovah, the temple of Jehovah, The temple of Jehovah [are] they!
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 For, if ye do thoroughly amend your ways and your doings, If ye do judgment thoroughly 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 Sojourner, fatherless, and widow, ye oppress not, And innocent blood do not shed in this place, And after other gods do not walk, for evil to yourselves,
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 I have caused you to dwell in this place, In the land that I gave to your fathers, From age even unto age.
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 are trusting for yourselves On the words of falsehood, so as not to profit.
“Liye, kowos filiya lulalfongi lowos in kas kikiap ma wangin sripa.
9 Stealing, murdering, and committing adultery, And swearing to falsehood, and giving perfume to Baal, And going after other gods whom ye knew not.
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 ye have come in and stood before Me, In this house on which My name is called, And have said, 'We have been delivered,' In order to do 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 burglars hath this house, On which My name is called, been in your eyes? Even I, lo, I have seen, an affirmation of Jehovah.
Ya kowos nunku mu Tempul sik sie acn in wikwik lun mwet pisrapasr? Nga liyena ma kowos oru an.
12 But go ye, I pray you, Unto My place that [is] in Shiloh, Where I caused My name to dwell at first, And see that which I have done to it, For 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 And now, because of your doing all these works, An affirmation of Jehovah, And I speak unto you, rising early and speaking, And ye have not hearkened, And I call you, and ye have not answered,
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 I also to the house on which My name is called, In which ye are trusting, And to the place that I gave to you, and to your fathers, Have done, as I have done to 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 I have cast you from before My face, As I have cast out all your brethren, The whole seed of Ephraim.
Nga fah liskowosla liki ye mutuk, oana ke nga lusla Israel, sou lowos. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
16 And thou dost not pray for this people, Nor lift up for them crying and prayer, Nor intercede with Me, for I hear thee not.
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 Art thou not seeing what they are doing In cities of Judah, and in streets of Jerusalem?
Ya kom tia liye ma elos oru in siti lun Judah ac inkanek lun Jerusalem?
18 The sons are gathering wood, And the fathers are causing the fire to burn, And the women are kneading dough, To make cakes to the queen of the heavens, And to pour out libations to other gods, So as to provoke 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 Me are they provoking to anger? an affirmation of Jehovah, Is it not themselves, For the shame of their own faces?
Tusruktu, ya nga pa elos aktoasrye uh? Mo, elos aktoasryalos sifacna, ac sifacna akmwekinyalos.
20 Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah, Lo, Mine anger and My fury is poured out on this place, On man, and beast, and on tree of the field, And on fruit of the ground, And it hath burned, and it is not 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 said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel, Your burnt-offerings add to your sacrifices, 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 did not speak with your fathers, Nor did I command them in the day of My bringing them out of the land of Egypt, Concerning the matters of burnt-offering and sacrifice,
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 to My voice, And I have been to you for God, And ye — ye are to Me for a people, And have walked in all the way that I command you, So that it is well for 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 And they have not hearkened, nor inclined their ear, And they walk in the counsels, In the stubbornness, of their evil heart, And are for backward, and not for 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 Even from the day when your fathers Went out of the land of Egypt till this day, I send to you all my servants the prophets, Daily rising early and sending,
Mutawauk ke len se mwet matu lowos illa liki facl Egypt nwe misenge, nga nuna supuna nu yuruwos mwet kulansap luk, mwet palu.
26 And they have not hearkened unto Me, Nor inclined their ear, and harden their neck, They have done evil above 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 And thou hast spoken unto them all these words, And they do not hearken to thee, And thou hast called unto them, And 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 And thou hast said unto them: This [is] the nation that hath not hearkened, To the voice of Jehovah its God, Nor have they accepted instruction, Perished hath stedfastness, Yea, it hath been cut off from 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 off thy crown, and cast [it] away, And lift up on high places lamentation, For Jehovah hath rejected, And He leaveth the generation of His wrath.
“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 the evil thing in Mine eyes, An affirmation of Jehovah, They have set their abominations in the house On which My name is 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 have built the high places of Tophet, That [are] in the valley of the son of Hinnom, To burn their sons and their daughters with fire, Which I did not command, Nor did it come 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, An affirmation of Jehovah, And it is not said any more, 'The Tophet,' And 'Valley of the son of Hinnom,' But 'Valley of the slaughter,' And they have buried in Tophet — without 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 carcase of this people hath been for food To a fowl of the heavens, and to a beast of the earth, And there is none troubling.
Monin mwet misa uh ac fah mwe mongo nun won ac kosro lemnak, mweyen ac wangin mwet in luselosla.
34 And I have caused to cease from cities of Judah, And from streets of Jerusalem, The voice of joy, and the voice of gladness, Voice of bridegroom, and voice of bride, For the land doth become a desolation!
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.
