Ezekiel 20
1 In len se aksingoul ke malem aklimekosr in yac akitkosr ke sruoh lasr, kutu sin mwet kol lun Israel elos tuku nu yuruk in siyuk ke ma lungse lun LEUM GOD, ac elos muta ye mutuk.
And it came to pass in the seventh year, in the fifth month, the tenth day of the month, that certain of the elders of Israel came to enquire of the LORD, and sat before me.
2 Na LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sik ac fahk,
Then came the word of the LORD unto me, saying,
3 “Kom, mwet sukawil moul la, kaskas nu sin mwet inge ac fahkang lah nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, fahk ouinge: Ya pwaye lah kowos tuku in siyuk ke ma lungse luk? Ke sripen nga pa God moul, nga ac tia lela kowos in siyuk kutena ma sik. Nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, pa fahk ma inge.
Son of man, speak unto the elders of Israel, and say unto them, Thus says the Lord GOD; Are all of you come to enquire of me? As I live, says the Lord GOD, I will not be enquired of by you.
4 “Mwet sukawil, ya kom akola in oru nununku lom nu selos? Kwal, oru. Akesmakinyalos ke orekma srungayuk papa matu tumalos ah tuh oru.
Will you judge them, son of man, will you judge them? cause them to know the abominations of their fathers:
5 Fahkang nu selos ma nga fahk inge. Ke pacl se nga tuh sulela Israel ah, nga tuh orala sie wulela yorolos, ac nga sifacna fahkyuyak nu selos in facl Egypt. Nga tuh fahk mu: Nga pa LEUM GOD lowos.
And say unto them, Thus says the Lord GOD; In the day when I chose Israel, and lifted up mine hand unto the seed of the house of Jacob, and made myself known unto them in the land of Egypt, when I lifted up mine hand unto them, saying, I am the LORD your God;
6 Na nga wulela nu selos mu nga fah usalosme liki fahl Egypt ac kololosla nu in sie facl su nga sulela in ma lalos, sie facl mut ac kasrup fohk we, sie facl su wo liki facl nukewa.
In the day that I lifted up mine hand unto them, to bring them out of the land of Egypt into a land that I had espied for them, flowing with milk and honey, which is the glory of all lands:
7 Nga tuh fahk elos in sisla ma sruloala srungayuk ma elos lungse, ac in tia akfohkfokyalos ke elos alu nu sin god sutuu lun Egypt, mweyen nga pa LEUM GOD lalos.
Then said I unto them, Cast all of you away every man the abominations of his eyes, and defile not yourselves with the idols of Egypt: I am the LORD your God.
8 Tuh pa elos pilesreyu ac tia lungse lohngyu. Elos tia sisla ma sruloala srungayuk lalos, ku fuhleak god lun mwet Egypt. Nga tuh akola in sang elos in pula nufon fulen kasrkusrak luk nu selos.
But they rebelled against me, and would not hearken unto me: they did not every man cast away the abominations of their eyes, neither did they forsake the idols of Egypt: then I said, I will pour out my fury upon them, to accomplish my anger against them in the midst of the land of Egypt.
9 Tuh nga tiana oru, mweyen ac tuh akkolukye Inek, ke sripen nga tuh fahkak nu sin mwet Israel ye mutun mwet elos muta inmasrlo lah nga ac fah usalosla liki acn Egypt.
But I wrought for my name's sake, that it should not be polluted before the heathen, among whom they were, in whose sight I made myself known unto them, in bringing them forth out of the land of Egypt.
10 “Ouinge nga usalosla liki acn Egypt nu yen mwesis.
Wherefore I caused them to go forth out of the land of Egypt, and brought them into the wilderness.
11 Nga sang ma sap luk nu selos ac lotelos oakwuk luk, su ac sang moul nu selos nukewa su akos.
And I gave them my statutes, and showed them my judgments, which if a man do, he shall even live in them.
12 Nga orala tuh karinginyen len Sabbath luk in sie mwe akul ke wulela inmasrlosr, in akesmakinyalos lah nga, LEUM GOD, pa oru elos mutal.
Moreover also I gave them my sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them, that they might know that I am the LORD that sanctify them.
13 Tusruktu elos pilesreyu pac yen mwesis. Elos kunausla ma sap luk ac srunga oakwuk luk, su ac sang moul nu selos nukewa su akos. Elos arulana aklusrongtenye len Sabbath, na nga akola in sang elos in pulakin kasrkusrak upa luk ingo yen mwesis, ac in kunauselosla.
But the house of Israel rebelled against me in the wilderness: they walked not in my statutes, and they despised my judgments, which if a man do, he shall even live in them; and my sabbaths they greatly polluted: then I said, I would pour out my fury upon them in the wilderness, to consume them.
14 Tuh nga tia oru, mweyen ac tuh akpusiselye Inek inmasrlon mutunfacl uh su liye ke nga kololos mwet Israel liki acn Egypt.
But I wrought for my name's sake, that it should not be polluted before the heathen, in whose sight I brought them out.
15 Ouinge nga orala sie fulahk yen mwesis mu nga ac tia usalosla nu ke facl se su nga sang selos ah — sie facl mut ac kasrup fohk we, sie facl su wo liki facl nukewa.
Yet also I lifted up my hand unto them in the wilderness, that I would not bring them into the land which I had given them, flowing with milk and honey, which is the glory of all lands;
16 Nga orala fulahk sac mweyen elos srunga oru ma nga sapkin, ac kunausla ma sap luk, ac aklusrongtenye len Sabbath — elos lungse alu nu ke ma sruloala lalos liki in alu nu sik.
Because they despised my judgments, and walked not in my statutes, but polluted my sabbaths: for their heart went after their idols.
17 “Tusruktu, nga tuh pakomutalos, ac sulela ngan tia onelosla ke elos muta yen mwesis.
Nevertheless mine eye spared them from destroying them, neither did I make an end of them in the wilderness.
18 Ouinge nga sensenkakin mwet fusr inmasrlolos ac fahk, ‘Nik kowos orekmakin ma sap ma orekla sin mwet matu lowos, ac nimet fahsr tukun ouiya koluk lalos, ku sifacna akfohkfokye kowos ke ma sruloala lalos.
But I said unto their children in the wilderness, Walk all of you not in the statutes of your fathers, neither observe their judgments, nor defile yourselves with their idols:
19 Nga LEUM GOD lowos. Kowos in akos ma sap luk ac oakwuk luk.
I am the LORD your God; walk in my statutes, and keep my judgments, and do them;
20 Akmutalye len Sabbath, tuh in sie akul ke wuleang inmasrlok ac kowos, tuh kowos fah etu lah nga LEUM GOD lowos.
And hallow my sabbaths; and they shall be a sign between me and you, that all of you may know that I am the LORD your God.
21 “Tusruktu fwil sac oayapa likkeke lainyu. Elos seakos ma sap luk ac tia oru oakwuk luk su ac sang moul nu selos nukewa su akos. Elos aklusrongtenye len Sabbath, pwanang nga tuh akola in oru elos in pula kuiyen kasrkusrak luk uh ke elos oasr yen mwesis, ac in onelosi nufon.
Notwithstanding the children rebelled against me: they walked not in my statutes, neither kept my judgments to do them, which if a man do, he shall even live in them; they polluted my sabbaths: then I said, I would pour out my fury upon them, to accomplish my anger against them in the wilderness.
22 Tuh nga tiana orala, mweyen ac tuh akpusiselye Inek ye mutun mutunfacl su liye ke nga usalosme mwet Israel liki facl Egypt.
Nevertheless I withdrew mine hand, and wrought for my name's sake, that it should not be polluted in the sight of the heathen, in whose sight I brought them forth.
23 Na nga sifilpa orala sie wulela yen mwesis uh. Nga wuleang mu nga ac akfahsryeloselik nu fin faclu nufon.
I lifted up mine hand unto them also in the wilderness, that I would scatter them among the heathen, and disperse them through the countries;
24 Nga oru ouinge mweyen elos srunga oru ma nga sapkin, ac seakos ma sap luk, ac aklusrongtenye len Sabbath, ac alu nu ke ma sruloala ma mwet matu lalos tuh kulansupu.
Because they had not executed my judgments, but had despised my statutes, and had polluted my sabbaths, and their eyes were after their fathers' idols.
25 “Ouinge nga sang nu selos ma sap su tia wo, ac oakwuk su ac tia sang moul nu selos.
Wherefore I gave them also statutes that were not good, and judgments whereby they should not live;
26 Nga fuhleang nu selos in sifacna akfohkfokye moul lalos ke mwe sang lalos, ac nga lela elos in kisakin wen se emeet natulos. Ma inge ma in kalyaelos ac in akkalemye nu selos lah nga pa LEUM GOD.
And I polluted them in their own gifts, in that they caused to pass through the fire all that opens the womb, that I might make them desolate, to the end that they might know that I am the LORD.
27 “Ke ma inge, mwet sukawil, fahk nu sin mwet Israel ma nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, fahk nu selos: Pa inge sie pac lumah ma papa matu tumalos uh akkasrkusrakyeyu kac ke elos tia moul suwohs ye mutuk.
Therefore, son of man, speak unto the house of Israel, and say unto them, Thus says the Lord GOD; Yet in this your fathers have blasphemed me, in that they have committed a trespass against me.
28 Nga usalosme nu in facl se su nga wuleang mu nga ac sang lalos. Ke elos liye tohktok fulat ac sak folfol insroa, elos orek kisa in acn inge nukewa. Elos oru nga kasrkusrak ke mwe kisa firir, ac mwe sang lalos, ac mwe kisa keng, ac wain ma elos use tuh in mwe kisa lalos nu sik.
For when I had brought them into the land, for the which I lifted up mine hand to give it to them, then they saw every high hill, and all the thick trees, and they offered there their sacrifices, and there they presented the provocation of their offering: there also they made their sweet savour, and poured out there their drink offerings.
29 Nga siyuk selos lah ma ya acn fulat elos som nu we inge? Ouinge in pacl sac me, pangpang acn we ‘Acn Fulat.’
Then I said unto them, What is the high place unto which all of you go? And the name whereof is called Bamah unto this day.
30 Inge fahkang nu sin mwet Israel ma nga fahk uh: Efu ku kowos sifil oru ma koluk ma mwet matu lowos uh tuh oru, ac ukwe na ma sruloala lalos?
Wherefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus says the Lord GOD; Are all of you polluted after the manner of your fathers? and commit all of you whoredom after their abominations?
31 Nwe misenge kowos srakna oru mwe sang ma mwet matu lowos oru meet ah, ac sifacna akfohkfokye kowos ke kowos alu nu ke ma sruloala ac kisai tulik nutuwos in e. Na kowos mwet Israel tiana tui in siyuk ke ma lungse luk! Ke sripen nga LEUM GOD Fulatlana ac nga pa God moul, nga fah tia lela kowos in siyuk kutena ma sik.
For when all of you offer your gifts, when all of you make your sons to pass through the fire, all of you pollute yourselves with all your idols, even unto this day: and shall I be enquired of by you, O house of Israel? As I live, says the Lord GOD, I will not be enquired of by you.
32 Kowos wotela tari mu kowos in oana mutunfacl saya su alu nu ke sak ac eot. Tusruktu ac fah tiana ouinge.
And that which comes into your mind shall not be at all, that all of you say, We will be as the heathen, as the families of the countries, to serve wood and stone.
33 “Ke sripen nga pa LEUM GOD Fulatlana ac nga God moul, nga akkalemye nu suwos lah in kasrkusrak luk, nga asroela pouk ac leum fowos ke ku luk nufon.
As I live, says the Lord GOD, surely with a mighty hand, and with a stretched out arm, and with fury poured out, will I rule over you:
34 Nga ac fahkak ku luk ac kasrkusrak luk nu suwos ke nga ac uskowoseni, ac folokinkowosme liki facl nukewa su kowos fahsrelik we.
And I will bring you out from the people, and will gather you out of the countries wherein all of you are scattered, with a mighty hand, and with a stretched out arm, and with fury poured out.
35 Nga ac uskowosme nu ‘Yen Mwesis Lun Mutunfacl uh,’ ac ingo, ke kut ngetani nu sie, nga fah orala nununku luk keiwos.”
And I will bring you into the wilderness of the people, and there will I plead with you face to face.
36 LEUM GOD Fulatlana El fahk, “Nga ac nununkekowos in oana ke nga tuh nununku papa matu tomowos yen mwesis in acn Sinai.”
Like I pleaded with your fathers in the wilderness of the land of Egypt, so will I plead with you, says the Lord GOD.
37 “Nga fah oru kolyuk ku luk fowos, ac oru kowos in akos wuleang luk.
And I will cause you to pass under the rod, and I will bring you into the bond of the covenant:
38 Nga ac eisla mwet lokoalok ac mwet orekma koluk liki inmasrlowos. Nga ac eisalosla liki facl nukewa elos muta we inge. Tusruktu nga ac tia lela elos in foloko nu in facl Israel. Na kowos fah etu lah nga pa LEUM GOD.”
And I will purge out from among you the rebels, and them that transgress against me: I will bring them forth out of the country where they sojourn, and they shall not enter into the land of Israel: and all of you shall know that I am the LORD.
39 LEUM GOD Fulatlana El fahk, “Inge, kowos mwet Israel nukewa, fahsrot kulansupu ma sruloala lowos! Tuh nga fahkot lah tukun ma inge kowos enenu in akosyu, ac tia sifil akpusiselye Ine mutal luk ke kowos us mwe sang lowos nu ke ma sruloala lowos.
As for you, O house of Israel, thus says the Lord GOD; Go all of you, serve all of you every one his idols, and hereafter also, if all of you will not hearken unto me: but pollute all of you my holy name no more with your gifts, and with your idols.
40 Ingo, fineol fulat ac mutal sik in acn Israel, kowos mwet Israel nukewa ac fah alu nu sik we. Nga ac fah insewowo suwos, ac nga fah soano tuh kowos in use mwe kisa lowos, ac mwe sang wolana ac mutal lowos nu sik.
For in mine holy mountain, in the mountain of the height of Israel, says the Lord GOD, there shall all the house of Israel, all of them in the land, serve me: there will I accept them, and there will I require your offerings, and the first-fruits of your oblations, with all your holy things.
41 Tukun nga folokinkowosme liki facl nukewa kowos fahsrelik we, ac eiskowoseni, nga ac insese in eis mwe kisa su kowos akosak, na mutunfacl uh ac fah liye lah nga mutal.
I will accept you with your sweet savour, when I bring you out from the people, and gather you out of the countries wherein all of you have been scattered; and I will be sanctified in you before the heathen.
42 Ke nga folokinkowosme nu in facl Israel, facl se su nga tuh wuleang mu nga ac sang lun papa matu tomowos, na kowos ac fah etu lah nga pa LEUM GOD.
And all of you shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall bring you into the land of Israel, into the country for the which I lifted up mine hand to give it to your fathers.
43 Kowos ac fah esamak ouiya koluk nukewa ma kowos oru ac akfohkfokye kowos sifacna kac. Kowos ac sifacna srungakowos ke sripen ma koluk nukewa kowos orala.
And there shall all of you remember your ways, and all your doings, wherein all of you have been defiled; and all of you shall loathe yourselves in your own sight for all your evils that all of you have committed.
44 Ouiya ma nga ac oru nu suwos mwet Israel, ac tia fal nu ke orekma koluk lowos, a ac fah fal nu ke Ine mutal luk. Ke ma inge kowos ac fah etu lah nga LEUM GOD.” LEUM GOD Fulatlana pa fahk ma inge.
And all of you shall know that I am the LORD when I have wrought with you for my name's sake, not according to your wicked ways, nor according to your corrupt doings, O all of you house of Israel, says the Lord GOD.
45 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik,
Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
46 “Mwet sukawil, ngetot suwohs nu eir. Kaskas lain acn eir, ac palu lain insak eir.
Son of man, set your face toward the south, and drop your word toward the south, and prophesy against the forest of the south field;
47 Fahk nu ke insak lun acn eir in lohng ma LEUM GOD Fulatlana El fahk uh: Liye, nga fah tanak sie e, su ac fah esukak sak nukewa sunom, finne ma moul ku ma masla. Wangin kutena ma ac ku in konela. Ac fah fahsrelik layen eir me nwe ke sun layen epang, ac mwet nukewa ac pula fulen fol kac.
And say to the forest of the south, Hear the word of the LORD; Thus says the Lord GOD; Behold, I will kindle a fire in you, and it shall devour every green tree in you, and every dry tree: the flaming flame shall not be quenched, and all faces from the south to the north shall be burned therein.
48 Elos nukewa ac liye lah nga, LEUM GOD, pa tanak e sac, ac wangin sie ku in konela.”
And all flesh shall see that I the LORD have kindled it: it shall not be quenched.
49 Tusruktu, nga tia insese nu kac, na nga fahk, “LEUM GOD Fulatlana, nimet supweyu in fahkak kas ingan! Mwet nukewa tukakinyu mu elos tiana kalem ke kas in pupulyuk luk.”
Then said I, Ah Lord GOD! they say of me, Does he not speak parables?
