< Ezekiel 16 >
1 LEUM GOD El sifil kaskas nu sik,
Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
2 ac fahk, “Mwet sukawil moul la, fahkang nu sin Jerusalem orekma srungayuk ma el orala.
Son of man, cause Jerusalem to know her abominations,
3 Fahk nu sin Jerusalem ma LEUM GOD Fulatlana El fahk nu sel: “Kom tuh isusla in facl sin mwet Canaan. Papa tomom el sie mwet Amor ac nina kiom el sie mwet Hit.
And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD to Jerusalem; Thy birth and thy nativity [is] of the land of Canaan; thy father [was] an Amorite, and thy mother a Hittite.
4 Ke pacl se kom isusla ah, wangin mwet lusala futom, ku twetekinkomla, ku sohlela monum, ku pwikomla ke ipin nuknuk.
And [as for] thy nativity, in the day thou wast born thy navel was not cut, neither wast thou washed in water to supple [thee]; thou wast not salted at all, nor swaddled at all.
5 Wangin mwet pakomutom in oru kutu sin ma inge nu sum. Ke kom isusla ah, sisila kom nu inima ke sripen wangin mwet lungse kom.
No eye pitied thee, to do any of these to thee, to have compassion upon thee; but thou wast cast out in the open field, to the lothing of thy person, in the day that thou wast born.
6 “Na nga fahsryak ac liye ke kom oan tipirpir in srah keim an. Monum afla ke srah, tusruktu nga tia lela kom in misa.
And when I passed by thee, and saw thee polluted in thy own blood, I said to thee [when thou wast] in thy blood, Live; yes, I said to thee [when thou wast] in thy blood, Live.
7 Nga tufwe kom in kapak oana soko sacn ma kapak wo. Kom kapak kui ac mutan fusrla. Wo aten titi lom, loes aunsifom, tusruktu kom koflufol.
I have caused thee to multiply as the bud of the field, and thou hast increased and become great, and thou art come to excellent ornaments: [thy] breasts are fashioned, and thy hair is grown, whereas thou [wast] naked and bare.
8 “Ke nga sifil fahsryak insac, nga liye lah kom nunak in payuk. Na nga afinya monum ke nuknuk lik luk, ac wuleot mu nga ac lungse kom. Aok, nga orala sie wuleang in marut inmasrloktal, na kom ma lac luk.” Pa inge ma LEUM GOD Fulatlana El fahk.
Now when I passed by thee, and looked upon thee, behold, thy time [was] the time of love; and I spread my skirt over thee, and covered thy nakedness: yes, I swore to thee, and entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord GOD, and thou becamest mine.
9 “Na nga otema kutu kof ac twanla srah keim, ac nga sang oil in olive mosrwekomla.
Then I washed thee with water; yes, I thoroughly washed away thy blood from thee, and I anointed thee with oil.
10 Nga nukumkomyang ke nuknuk orekla ke mwe akul na kato, ac sot fahluk orek ke kulun kosro na wowo, ac nga sot sie nuknuk linen mwe lohl suf, ac sie nuknuk lik orekla ke silk.
I clothed thee also with broidered work, and shod thee with badgers' skin, and I girded thee with fine linen, and I covered thee with silk.
11 Nga nawekomla ke mwe lohlpo, ac ah nu inkwawom ma orekla ke eot saok.
I decked thee also with ornaments, and I put bracelets upon thy hands, and a chain on thy neck.
12 Nga sot sie ring nu ke fwem, oayapa yaring, ac sie tefuro na oasku.
And I put a jewel on thy forehead, and ear-rings in thy ears, and a beautiful crown upon thy head.
13 Oasr mwe naweyuk lom orekla ke gold ac silver, ac pacl nukewa kom nukum nuknuk linen ac silk ma akul uh. Kom mongo bread ma orekla ke flao wowo, ac oasr honey ac oil in olive kom kang. Katoiyom arulana oasku, na kom kasrala.
Thus wast thou decked with gold and silver; and thy raiment [was of] fine linen, and silk, and broidered work; thou didst eat fine flour, and honey, and oil: and thou wast exceeding beautiful, and thou didst prosper into a kingdom.
14 Kom pwengpeng in mutunfacl nukewa ke sripen kato lom, mweyen nga pa orekomla in arulana oasku.” Pa inge ma LEUM GOD Fulatlana El fahk.
And thy renown went forth among the heathen for thy beauty: for it [was] perfect through my comeliness, which I had put upon thee, saith the Lord GOD.
15 “Tuh ke sripen kom konkun kato ac pwengpeng lom, kom oan yurin kutena mukul su tuku nu yurum.
But thou didst trust in thy own beauty, and playedst the harlot because of thy renown, and pouredst out thy fornications on every one that passed by; his it was.
16 Kom orekmakin kutu nuknuk lom in sang yuni nien alu sum. Na kom eiskomyang nu sin kutena mukul, oana sie mutan kosro su eis molin kosro lal.
And of thy garments thou didst take, and deck thy high places with divers colors, and play the harlot upon them: [the like things] shall not come, neither shall it be [so].
17 Kom eisla mwe yun silver ac gold su nga sot lom, ac kom sang taflela ma sruloala in luman mukul uh, ac orek kosro nu kac.
Thou hast also taken thy fair jewels of my gold and of my silver, which I had given thee, and hast made to thyself images of men, and hast committed lewdness with them.
18 Kom eisla nuknuk akul su nga sot lom ac sang nokomang ma sruloala ingan, ac kom kisakin nu selos oil in olive ac mwe keng ma nga sot nu sum.
And hast taken thy broidered garments, and covered them: and thou hast set my oil and my incense before them.
19 Nga sot nom flao na wowo, oil in olive, ac honey, tuh pa kom kisakin ma inge in akinsewowoye ma sruloala uh.” Pa inge ma LEUM GOD Fulatlana El fahk.
My provisions also which I gave thee, fine flour, and oil, and honey, [with which] I fed thee, thou hast even set before them for a sweet savor: and [thus] it was, saith the Lord GOD.
20 “Na kom eis tulik mukul ac mutan ma kom oswela nu sik, ac kisakunulos nu ke ma sruloala uh. Ya tia fal tari ke kom tia pwaye nu sik?
Moreover thou hast taken thy sons and thy daughters, whom thou hast borne to me, and these hast thou sacrificed to them to be devoured. [Is this] of thy lewdness a small matter,
21 Na efu kom ku sifil sang tulik nutik uh in mwe kisa nu ke ma sruloala?
That thou hast slain my children, and delivered them to cause them to pass through [the fire] for them?
22 Ke pacl se kom moulkin lumah srungayuk oana sie mutan kosro, kom tiana esamak pacl se kom tulik, koflufol ac tipirpir in srah keim sifacna.”
And in all thy abominations and thy deeds of lewdness thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, when thou wast naked and bare, [and] wast polluted in thy blood.
23 LEUM GOD Fulatlana El fahk, “We nu sum! Kom oru ma koluk inge nukewa,
And it came to pass after all thy wickedness, (woe, woe to thee! saith the Lord GOD; )
24 na sisken inkanek nukewa kom musaela nien alu nu ke ma sruloala, ac iwen orek kosro.
[That] thou hast also built to thee an eminent place, and hast made thee a high place in every street.
25 Kom akfohkfokyela kato lom yen furarrar, ac kom fuhleang monum nu sin kutena mukul su fahsryak, ac moul in kosro lom uh yokelik len na len.
Thou hast built thy high place at every head of the way, and hast made thy beauty to be abhorred, and hast prostituted thyself to every one that passed by, and multiplied thy lewd deeds.
26 Kom kukakin monum nu sin mwet Egypt, su mwet tulan elahn kosro, na kom oru kosro lom uh in akkasrkusrakyeyu.
Thou hast also committed fornication with the Egyptians thy neighbors, great of flesh; and hast multiplied thy lewd deeds, to provoke me to anger.
27 “Na inge, nga srukak pouk in kai kom, ac in eisla ip lom ke mwe insewowo luk uh. Nga eiskomyang nu inpoun mwet Philistia su srungakom ac mwekin ke moul fohkfok lom.
Behold, therefore I have stretched out my hand over thee, and have diminished thy ordinary [food], and delivered thee to the will of them that hate thee, the daughters of the Philistines, who are ashamed of thy lewd way.
28 “Ke sripen kom tiana muti yorolos, oru kom ukwe mwet Assyria. Kom kukakin monum nu selos, tuh kom tia pac muti selos.
Thou hast played the harlot also with the Assyrians, because thou wast insatiable; yes, thou hast played the harlot with them, and yet couldst not be satisfied.
29 Kom oayapa orek kosro yurin mwet Babylonia, sie facl pwengpeng ke kuka, tuh pa kom tia pac muti selos.”
Thou hast moreover multiplied thy fornication in the land of Canaan to Chaldea; and yet with this thou wast not satisfied.
30 Pa inge ma LEUM GOD Fulatlana El fahk: “Kom oru ma inge nukewa oana sie mutan kosro na sumwekin.
How weak is thy heart, saith the Lord GOD, seeing thou doest all these [things], the work of an imperious lewd woman;
31 Kom musaela acn in alu nu ke ma sruloala oayapa iwen orek kosro ke inkanek nukewa. Tusruktu kom tia sukok mani in oana mutan saya ma kukakin manolos.
In that thou buildest thy eminent place in the head of every way, and makest thy high place in every street; and hast not been as a harlot, in that thou scornest hire;
32 Kom oana mutan su lungse orek kosro yurin mukul saya, ac tia lungse oan yurin mukul tumal sifacna.
[But as] a wife that committeth adultery, [who] taketh strangers instead of her husband!
33 Mutan kosro uh elos eis molin kosro lalos, a kom sang monum, tia moul, nu sin mukul ma orek pwar nu sum, ac kom sang mani in eyeinse nu selos in tuku liki acn nukewa ac oan yurum.
They give gifts to all lewd women: but thou givest thy gifts to all thy lovers, and hirest them, that they may come to thee on every side for thy lewdness.
34 Kom tiana oana mutan kosro saya. Wangin mwet akkohsye kom in sie mutan kosro. Tia moul nu sum, a kom moli nu selos! Pwayena lah kom siena lukelos.”
And the contrary is in thee from [other] women in thy unlawful commerce, whereas none followeth thee to commit lewdness: and in that thou givest a reward, and no reward is given to thee, therefore thou art contrary.
35 Jerusalem, kom mutan kosro se! Inge, lohng ma LEUM GOD El fahk uh.
Wherefore, O harlot, hear the word of the LORD:
36 Pa inge ma LEUM GOD Fulatlana El fahk: “Kom tuh sarukla nuknuk lom, na oana sie mutan kosro kom tuh eiskomyang sifacna nu sin mukul kawuk lom ac nu ke ma sruloala srungayuk nukewa lom. Ac kom oayapa uniya tulik nutum ac kisakunulos nu ke ma sruloala uh.
Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thy filthiness was poured out, and thy nakedness exposed through thy carnal connection with thy lovers, and with all the idols of thy abominations, and by the blood of thy children, which thou didst give to them;
37 Ke sripa inge, nga ac eisani nufon mwet kom orek pwar nu se meet ah — elos su kom lungse ac elos su kom srunga. Nga ac usalosme elos in raunikomla, na nga ac sarukkomla ac sang elos in liye ke kom koflufol uh.
Behold therefore, I will gather all thy lovers, with whom thou hast taken pleasure, and all [them] that thou hast loved, with all [them] that thou hast hated; I will even gather them on every side against thee, and will uncover thy nakedness to them, that they may see all thy nakedness.
38 Nga ac nununkekom ke sripen kom kunausla wulela in marut lom, ac oayapa akmas. In kasrkusrak lulap luk, nga wotela mu kom ac misa.
And I will judge thee, as women that break wedlock and shed blood are judged; and I will give thee blood in fury and jealousy.
39 Nga ac filikomi ye ku lalos, ac elos ac kunausya acn kom orekmakin in kukakin monum, ac nien alu lom nu ke ma sruloala. Elos ac usla nuknuk lom ac mwe yun lom, ac filikomi koflufol.
And I will also give thee into their hand, and they shall throw down thy eminent place, and shall break down thy high places: they shall strip thee also of thy clothes, and shall take thy fair jewels, and leave thee naked and bare.
40 “Elos ac purakak sie un mwet in tungal kom nwe ke kom misa, ac elos ac sipsipikya monum nu ke ip srisrik ke cutlass natulos.
They shall also bring up a company against thee, and they shall stone thee with stones, and thrust thee through with their swords.
41 Elos ac esukak lohm sum nukewa, ac oru tuh mutan puspis in liye kaiyuk nu sum uh. Nga ac oru kom in tui liki moul in kosro lom an, ac oru kom in tia sifil sang mwe moul nu sin mukul kom orek pwar yoro.
And they shall burn thy houses with fire, and execute judgments upon thee in the sight of many women: and I will cause thee to cease from playing the harlot, and thou also shalt give no hire any more.
42 Ouinge kasrkusrak luk ac safla, ac nga fah inse misla. Nga fah tia sifil kasrkusrak, ac tia sifilpa lemta.
So will I make my fury towards thee to rest, and my jealousy shall depart from thee, and I will be quiet, and will be no more angry.
43 Kom mulkunla orekma luk nu sum ke kom srik ah, ac kom akkasrkusrakyeyu ke ma nukewa kom orala. Ouinge nga ac oru kom in eis mwatan ma inge nukewa. Efu kom ku sang elahn kosro in weang ma srungayuk nukewa ma kom orala?” LEUM GOD Fulatlana pa fahk ma inge.
Because thou hast not remembered the days of thy youth, but hast provoked me in all these [things]; behold therefore, I also will recompense thy way upon [thy] head, saith the Lord GOD: and thou shalt not commit this lewdness above all thy abominations.
44 LEUM GOD El fahk, “Jerusalem, mwet uh ac fahk soakas se inge keim: ‘Tulik mutan se ac kwa nina kial.’
Behold, every one that useth proverbs shall use [this] proverb against thee, saying, As [is] the mother, [so is] her daughter.
45 Pwayena lah kom kwa nina kiom uh. El arulana srunga mukul tumal ac tulik natul. Kom oana tamtael wiom su srunga mukul tumalos ac tulik natulos. Kom, ac siti wiom ingan, ma nutin nina Hit se ac papa Amor se.
Thou [art] thy mother's daughter, that lotheth her husband and her children; and thou [art] the sister of thy sisters, who lothed their husbands and their children: your mother [was] a Hittite, and your father an Amorite.
46 “Mutan se wiom ma matu pa Samaria layen epang, wi inkul ma oan raunela. Ac mutan se wiom ma fusr pa Sodom layen eir, wi inkul ma oan raunela.
And thy elder sister [is] Samaria, she and her daughters that dwell at thy left hand: and thy younger sister, that dwelleth at thy right hand, [is] Sodom and her daughters.
47 Ku kom falkin in fahsr in falkalos ac etai ouiya srungayuk elos oru? Mo. In kitin pacl ah na kom orekma koluk yohk lukelos in ma nukewa kom oru.”
Yet hast thou not walked after their ways, nor done after their abominations: but as [if that were] a very little [thing], thou wast corrupted more than they in all thy ways.
48 LEUM GOD Fulatlana El fahk, “Oana ke nga pa God moul, Sodom mutan se wiom ac inkul ma raunela, tiana oru ouiya koluk ma kom, ac inkul raunikomla ingan, orala.
[As] I live, saith the Lord GOD, Sodom thy sister hath not done, she nor her daughters, as thou hast done, thou and thy daughters.
49 El, ac acn natul uh, arulana konkin ke pus mwe mongo nalos ac elos muta in misla ac insraelak, tusruktu elos tiana kasru mwet sugasrup ac mwet enenu.
Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fullness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy.
50 Elos inse fulat ac likkeke ac oru ma nga srunga, pwanang nga kunauselosla, oana kom etu.
And they were haughty, and committed abomination before me: therefore I took them away as I saw [good].
51 “Ma koluk lal Samaria tia tafu nu ke ma koluk kom orala. Kom oru ma srungayuk arulana yohk liki ma el orala. Ouiya srungayuk lom uh arulana yohk, oru oana in wangin ma koluk lun mutan luo wiom kut fin kapsra ma koluk lalos nu ke ma koluk lom uh.
Neither hath Samaria committed half of thy sins; but thou hast multiplied thy abominations more than they, and hast justified thy sisters in all thy abominations which thou hast done.
52 Inge mwekin lom uh ac fah oanna fom. Moul koluk lom an arulana yohk liki mutan luo wiom, pwanang mwet uh pangon mu wangin ma koluk lalos. Kom ac mwekyekinna, mweyen ma koluk lom uh oru oana in wangin mwatan mutan luo wiom.”
Thou also, who hast judged thy sisters, bear thy own shame for thy sins that thou hast committed more abominable than they: they are more righteous than thou: yes, be thou confounded also, and bear thy shame, in that thou hast justified thy sisters.
53 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sin Jerusalem, “Nga ac oru tuh Sodom ac inkul we, oayapa Samaria ac inkul we, in sifil kapkapak. Aok, nga ac oru tuh kom in kapkapak pac.
When I shall bring again their captivity, the captivity of Sodom and her daughters, and the captivity of Samaria and her daughters, then [will I bring again] the captivity of thy captives in the midst of them:
54 Kom ac mwekyekin orekma koluk lom an, na mwekin lom uh ac oru mutan wiom an in akilen lah ma koluk lalos uh srik liki kom.
That thou mayest bear thy own shame, and mayest be confounded in all that thou hast done, in that thou art a comfort to them.
55 Elos ac sifilpa akwoyeyuk oana meet, na kom, ac inkul lom, ac sifil akwoyeyukla pac.
When thy sisters, Sodom and her daughters, shall return to their former state, and Samaria and her daughters shall return to their former state, then thou and thy daughters shall return to your former state.
56 Ya kom tuh tia orek aksruksruk ke acn Sodom in pacl kom inse fulat,
For thy sister Sodom was not mentioned by thy mouth in the day of thy pride,
57 meet liki ma koluk lom fwackyak? Inge kom oapana el, sie mwe aksruksruk yurin mwet Edom, mwet Philistia, ac mutunfacl atulani lom su srungakom.
Before thy wickedness was disclosed, as at the time of [thy] reproach of the daughters of Syria, and all [that are] around her, the daughters of the Philistines, who despise thee on every side.
58 Kom ac fah keok ke ouiya fohkfok ac srungayuk ma kom orala.” LEUM GOD pa fahk ma inge.
Thou hast borne thy lewdness and thy abominations, saith the LORD.
59 LEUM GOD Fulatlana El fahk, “Nga fah oru nu sum fal nu ke orekma lom, mweyen kom pilesru wulela lom ac kunausla wuleang inmasrlosr.
For thus saith the Lord GOD; I will even deal with thee as thou hast done, who hast despised the oath in breaking the covenant.
60 Tusruktu nga fah esam na wuleang su nga orala nu sum ke kom srakna fusr, ac nga fah oakiya yurum sie wuleang su ac fah oan nwe tok.
Nevertheless I will remember my covenant with thee in the days of thy youth, and I will establish to thee an everlasting covenant.
61 Kom ac esam ouiyen moul lom ac mwekin kac ke kom ac sifil eis tamtael matu ac fusr wiom. Nga fah eisaloswot tuh elos in oana acn nutum, finne tia ipin wuleang se ma nga orala yurum ah.
Then thou shalt remember thy ways, and be ashamed, when thou shalt receive thy sisters, thy elder and thy younger: and I will give them to thee for daughters, but not by thy covenant.
62 Nga ac aksasuyela wuleang luk yurum, ac kom fah etu lah nga pa LEUM GOD.
And I will establish my covenant with thee; and thou shalt know that I [am] the LORD:
63 Nga fah nunak munas ke ma koluk nukewa ma kom orala, tusruktu kom fah esam na ma ingan ac mwekin in fahk kutena ma.” LEUM GOD Fulatlana pa fahk ma inge.
That thou mayest remember, and be confounded, and never open thy mouth any more because of thy shame, when I am pacified towards thee for all that thou hast done, saith the Lord GOD.
