< Ezekiel 2 >

1 Pusra sac fahk mu, “Kom, mwet sukawil moul la, tuyuk. Nga lungse kaskas nu sum.”
He said to me, “Son of man, stand on your feet, and I will speak with you.”
2 Ke pusra sac srakna kaskas, ngun lun God ilyak nu in nga ac tulokinyuyak, ac nga lohng pusra sac sifil fahk,
The Spirit entered into me when he spoke to me, and set me on my feet; and I heard him who spoke to me.
3 “Mwet sukawil, nga ac supwekomla nu yurin mwet Israel. Elos lainyu ac forla likiyu. Elos srakna lainyu oana papa matu tumalos tuh oru.
He said to me, “Son of man, I send you to the children of Israel, to a nation of rebels who have rebelled against me. They and their fathers have transgressed against me even to this very day.
4 Elos likkeke ac tiana akfulatyeyu, ouinge nga supwekomla in fahkang nu selos ma nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, fahk nu selos.
The children are impudent and stiff-hearted. I am sending you to them, and you shall tell them, ‘This is what the Lord GOD says.’
5 Elos finne lohng kom ku tia, elos ac etu lah oasr sie mwet palu muta inmasrlolos.
They, whether they will hear, or whether they will refuse—for they are a rebellious house—yet they will know that there has been a prophet amongst them.
6 “A kom, mwet sukawil moul la, enenu na kom in tia sangeng selos ku ke kutena ma elos ac fahk. Elos ac lain kom ac srungakom. Ac fah oana kom in muta inmasrlon scorpion uh. Ne ouinge, nikmet sangeng sin mwet likkeke inge, ku ke kutena ma elos ac fahk an.
You, son of man, don’t be afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns are with you, and you dwell amongst scorpions. Don’t be afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they are a rebellious house.
7 Fahkang nu selos ma nukewa nga sapkin kom in fahk, elos finne lohng ku tia. Esam na lah elos mwet lungse alein.
You shall speak my words to them, whether they will hear or whether they will refuse; for they are most rebellious.
8 “Kom, mwet sukawil, lohng ma nga ac fahk nu sum uh. Nimet lainyu oana elos. Oalngelik oalum ac kang ma nga ac sot nu sum uh.”
But you, son of man, hear what I tell you. Don’t be rebellious like that rebellious house. Open your mouth, and eat that which I give you.”
9 Nga liye lac po kokome nu sik ac sruok sie book limlim.
When I looked, behold, a hand was stretched out to me; and behold, a scroll of a book was in it.
10 Na pao sac asroelik book limlim sac, ac nga liye lah oasr sim lac lac — kas in asor, tung ac wela pa simla kac.
He spread it before me. It was written within and without; and lamentations, mourning, and woe were written in it.
