Ezekiel 15

1 LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sik

The LORD’s word came to me, saying,

2 ac fahk, “Kom, mwet sukawil moul la, fuka tuh sak grape uh in wo liki kain sak nukewa saya uh? Ya oasr sripen lahn grape uh liki lahn sak lulap insak uh?

“Son of man, what is the vine tree more than any tree, the vine branch which is amongst the trees of the forest?

3 Ya kom ku in orekmakin fain in orala kutena ma? Ya kom ku in orala mwe sripsrip kac in sang srupusrak mau?

Will wood be taken of it to make anything? Will men take a pin of it to hang any vessel on it?

4 Ma sefanna ac ku in orek kac, pa in sang tanak sie e ah. Muta luo ah fin firirla ac infulwa ah mulutla, ya kom ac ku in orala kutena ma kac?

Behold, it is cast into the fire for fuel; the fire has devoured both its ends, and the middle of it is burnt. Is it profitable for any work?

5 Meet liki firiryak ah nuna wangin sripa; ac inge ke firiryak tari ac mulutla, wanginla na pwaye sripa.”

Behold, when it was whole, it was suitable for no work. How much less, when the fire has devoured it, and it has been burnt, will it yet be suitable for any work?”

6 Pa inge ma LEUM GOD Fulatlana El fahk: “Oana ke ac utuku fain liki insak uh ac isisyak, ouinge nga fah usla mwet in acn Jerusalem

Therefore the Lord GOD says: “As the vine wood amongst the trees of the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel, so I will give the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

7 ac kalyaelos. Elos kaingkunla sie e uh, a inge sie pac e ac esukulosyak. Ke nga ac kalyaelos, kom ac fah etu lah nga pa LEUM GOD.

I will set my face against them. They will go out from the fire, but the fire will still devour them. Then you will know that I am the LORD, when I set my face against them.

8 Elos tia pwaye nu sik, ouinge nga fah orala facl sac in acn mwesisla.” LEUM GOD Fulatlana pa fahk ma inge.

I will make the land desolate, because they have acted unfaithfully,” says the Lord GOD.
