Jeremiah 1
1 Words of Jeremiah son of Hilkiah, of the priests who [are] in Anathoth, in the land of Benjamin,
Book se inge fahkak ke kas lal Jeremiah wen natul Hilkiah, sie sin mwet tol lun siti srisrik Anathoth ke facl lun Benjamin.
2 unto whom the word of Jehovah hath been in the days of Josiah son of Amon, king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign,
LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sel Jeremiah in yac se aksingoul tolu ma Josiah wen natul Amon el tuh tokosra lun Judah,
3 and it is in the days of Jehoiakim son of Josiah, king of Judah, till the completion of the eleventh year of Zedekiah son of Josiah, king of Judah, till the removal of Jerusalem in the fifth month.
ac El sifilpa kaskas nu sel Jeremiah ke Jehoiakin wen natul Josiah el tuh tokosra. Tukun pacl sac, LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sel ke pacl na pus, nwe ke yac aksingoul sie ma Zedekiah, wen natul Josiah, el tokosra. Ke malem se aklimekosr in yac sac mwet Jerusalem elos utukla nu in sruoh.
4 And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying,
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik,
5 'Before I form thee in the belly, I have known thee; and before thou comest forth from the womb I have separated thee, a prophet to nations I have made thee.'
“Meet liki nga lumwekomla nga sulekomla, ac meet liki kom isusla nga srikomla in sie mwet palu nu sin mutunfacl uh.”
6 And I say, 'Ah, Lord Jehovah! lo, I have not known — to speak, for I [am] a youth.'
Na nga topuk, “LEUM GOD Fulatlana, nga nikin lah mea nga ac fahk. Nga arulana fusrla.”
7 And Jehovah saith unto me, 'Do not say, I [am] a youth, for to all to whom I send thee thou goest, and all that I command thee thou speakest.
Tusruktu LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik, “Nikmet fahk mu kom fusrla, a fahla nu yurin mwet ma nga supwekom nu se uh, ac fahk nu selos ma nukewa nga sapkin kom in fahk.
8 Be not afraid of their faces, for with thee [am] I to deliver thee, — an affirmation of Jehovah.'
Nimet sangeng selos, tuh nga ac fah wi kom ac karingin kom. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge!”
9 And Jehovah putteth forth His hand, and striketh against my mouth, and Jehovah saith unto me, 'Lo, I have put my words in thy mouth.
Na LEUM GOD El asroema paol, pusralla ngoasrok, ac fahk nu sik, “Porongo, nga ac sot nu sum kas kom in fahk.
10 See, I have charged thee this day concerning the nations, and concerning the kingdoms, to pluck up, and to break down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.'
Misenge nga sot ku nu sum fin mutunfacl ac tokosrai nukewa, in fusak ac in ikorinya, in kunausla ac sisla, in musai ac in yukwiya.”
11 And there is a word of Jehovah unto me, saying, 'What art thou seeing, Jeremiah?' And I say, 'A rod of an almond tree I am seeing.'
LEUM GOD El siyuk sik, “Jeremiah, mea kom liye?” Nga topuk, “Nga liye lesak almond se.”
12 And Jehovah saith unto me, 'Thou hast well seen: for I am watching over My word to do it.'
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Pwaye sum, ac nga tawi in liye lah kas luk akpwayeiyuk.”
13 And there is a word of Jehovah unto me a second time, saying, 'What art thou seeing?' And I say, 'A blown pot I am seeing, and its face [is] from the north.'
Na LEUM GOD El sifil kaskas nu sik, ac siyuk, “Mea pac kom liye?” Nga topuk, “Nga liye pac tup in kof se poel epang, ac apkuran in topme nu layenu.”
14 And Jehovah saith unto me, 'From the north is the evil loosed against all inhabitants of the land.
El fahk nu sik, “Mwe ongoiya ac fah kahkma epangme nu faclos nukewa su muta in facl se inge,
15 For, lo, I am calling for all families of the kingdoms of the north, — an affirmation of Jehovah — and they have come, and put each his throne at the opening of the gates of Jerusalem, and by its walls round about, and by all cities of Judah.
mweyen nga pangon mutunfacl nukewa in acn epang in tuku. Tokosra lalos fah oakiya tron lalos ke mutunpot lun Jerusalem ac rauneak pot we, ac oayapa rauneak siti saya lun Judah.
16 And I have spoken My judgments with them concerning all their evil, in that they have forsaken Me, and make perfume to other gods, and bow themselves to the works of their own hands.
Nga fah kalyei mwet luk mweyen elos orekma koluk. Elos fahsr likiyu, sang mwe kisa lalos nu sin god ngia, ac orek ma sruloala ac alu nu selos.
17 'And thou, thou dost gird up thy loins, and hast arisen, and spoken unto them all that I command thee: be not affrighted because of them, lest I affright thee before them.
Jeremiah, akola kom in som ac fahk nu selos ma nukewa nga sapkin kom in fahk. Nikmet sangeng selos inge. Kom fin sangeng nga fah akyokye sangeng lom ke kom ac tu ye mutalos.
18 And I, lo, I have given thee this day for a fenced city, and for an iron pillar, and for brazen walls over all the land, to the kings of Judah, to its heads, to its priests, and to the people of the land;
Misenge nga oru tuh kom in oana sie siti potiyukyak kulana, soko sru osra, sie kalkal bronze, ma in lain facl se inge nufon — lain tokosra nukewa lun Judah, wi fisrak we, mwet tol we, ac mwet in facl sac.
19 and they have fought against thee, and they prevail not against thee; for with thee [am] I, — an affirmation of Jehovah — to deliver thee.
Elos fah mweun lain kom; tusruktu elos ac fah tia ku in kutangkomla, tuh nga ac fah wi kom ac karingin kom. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
