Ezekiel 21
1 LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sik ac fahk,
The word of the LORD came to me, saying,
2 “Kom, mwet sukawil moul la, fahkak kas in lain Jerusalem ac lain yen mwet uh alu we. Sang kas in sensenkakin facl Israel
"Son of man, set your face toward Jerusalem, and speak against the sanctuaries, and prophesy against the land of Israel;
3 lah nga, LEUM GOD, fahk mu: ‘Nga mwet lokoalok lowos. Nga ac fwauk cutlass nutik ac unikowosi nukewa, mwet wo ac mwet koluk oana sie.
and tell the land of Israel, 'Thus says the LORD: "Look, I am against you, and will draw forth my sword out of its sheath, and will cut off from you the righteous and the wicked.
4 Nga ac orekmakin cutlass nutik uh in uni mwet nukewa, eir lac nwe epang.
Seeing then that I will cut off from you the righteous and the wicked, therefore shall my sword go forth out of its sheath against all flesh from the Negev to the north:
5 Mwet nukewa fah etu lah nga, LEUM GOD, fwauk tari cutlass nutik, ac nga fah tia sifil folokonang nu yen se.
and all flesh shall know that I, the LORD, have drawn forth my sword out of its sheath; it shall not return any more."'
6 “Kom, mwet sukawil, sao ac tung ke asor lulap. Sasao yen mwet nukewa ac ku in liye kom we.
"Sigh therefore, you son of man; with the breaking of your thighs and with bitterness you will sigh before their eyes.
7 Ke elos siyuk sum lah efu kom ku tung, fahk nu selos lah ma ke sripen pweng su tuku inge. Ke pacl se ac tuku, insialos ac arulana sangeng, ac paolos ac atla ac uli, ac kuiyalos ac munasla, ac nialos ac rarrar. Pacl sac pa inge.” LEUM GOD Fulatlana pa fahk ma inge.
It shall be, when they tell you, 'Why do you sigh?' that you shall say, 'Because of the news, for it comes; and every heart shall melt, and all hands shall be feeble, and every spirit shall faint, and all knees shall be weak as water: look, it comes, and it shall be done, says the LORD.'"
8 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik,
The word of the LORD came to me, saying,
9 “Mwet sukawil, palye ac fahk nu sin mwet uh lah mea nga, LEUM GOD, fahk inge: Sie cutlass, aok sie cutlass pa twetela ac aksaromromyeyukla.
"Son of man, prophesy, and say, 'Thus says the LORD: Say, "A sword, a sword, it is sharpened, and also furbished;
10 Temyukla in uniya, Aksaromromyeyukla in sarmelik oana sarom uh. Na ac fah wangin enganak yurin mwet luk Mweyen elos pilesru kas in sensen nukewa, oayapa kas in kai.
it is sharpened that it may make a slaughter; it is furbished that it may be as lightning: shall we then make mirth? The rod of my son, it condemns every tree.
11 Cutlass uh akmusrala tari Ac akola in orekmakinyuk. Temyukla ac akmusrala Tuh in oan inpoun sie mwet akmas.
It is given to be furbished, that it may be handled: the sword, it is sharpened, yes, it is furbished, to give it into the hand of the killer."'
12 Mwet sukawil, wowoyak ke keok; Cutlass se inge ma ac lain mwet luk Oayapa mwet kol nukewa lun mwet Israel. Elos ac anwuki Wi mwet luk nukewa. Puokya iniwom ke supwarla ac wanginla finsrak!
Cry and wail, son of man; for it is on my people, it is on all the princes of Israel: they are delivered over to the sword with my people; strike therefore on your thigh.
13 Nga srike mwet luk inge Ac elos fin srunga auliyak, Na ma inge nukewa ac sikyak nu selos.
For there is a trial; and what if even the rod that condemns shall be no more?" says the LORD.
14 “Inge, mwet sukawil, palye ac paspas, na cutlass sac ac pakpuk na pakpuk. Cutlass sac mwe uniya, mwe aksangeng, ac mwe fakfuk.
"You therefore, son of man, prophesy, and strike your hands together; and let the sword be doubled the third time, the sword of the deadly wounded: it is the sword of the great one who is deadly wounded, which enters into their rooms.
15 Ac oru mwet luk in tila pulaik, ac elos ac fahsr tukulkul. Nga aksangengye siti selos ke sie cutlass sarmelik oana sie sarom, su akola in uniya mwet.
I have set the threatening sword against all their gates, that their heart may melt, and their stumblings be multiplied: Ah. It is made as lightning, it is pointed for slaughter.
16 Kom, cutlass kosroh, pakpuk nu layot ac nu lasa. Pakpuk nu acn nukewa kom for we.
'Gather yourselves together, go to the right, set yourselves in array, go to the left, wherever your face is set.'
17 Nga fah paspas pac, na kasrkusrak luk ac fah wanginla. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
I will also strike my hands together, and I will cause my wrath to rest: I, the LORD, have spoken it."
18 LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sik
The word of the LORD came to me again, saying,
19 ac fahk, “Mwet sukawil, akilenya lukwa inkanek ma tokosra Babylonia elan ku in ut we wi cutlass natul. Mutaweyen inkanek lukwa inge in tuku ke mutunfacl sefanna. Tulokunak sie akul an yen ma inkanek an sengelik we.
"Also, you son of man, appoint two ways that the sword of the king of Babylon may come; they both shall come forth out of one land: and mark out a place, mark it out at the head of the way to the city.
20 Soko in akkalemye nu sin tokosra lah ma ac som nu Rabbah, siti lun mwet Ammon. Ac ma soko ngia, ma ac som nu Judah, nu ke Jerusalem, siti se ma akkeyeyukla ke pot ku.
You shall appoint a way for the sword to come to Rabbah of the people of Ammon, and to Judah in Jerusalem, the fortified.
21 Tokosra lun acn Babylonia el ac tu ke akul ke yen inkanek ah sengelik we. In konauk acn el ac ut we, el usruk sukan pisr natul, na el siyuk kasru sin ma sruloala lal; na el ac lohang nu ke esan kosro soko ma kisakinyukla.
For the king of Babylon stood at the parting of the way, at the head of the two ways, to use divination: he shook the arrows back and forth, he consulted the teraphim, he looked in the liver.
22 Inge, lac po layot sel sruok sukan pisr ma akilenya acn ‘Jerusalem’! Ma se inge akkalemye nu sel elan som ac akola polosak mwe fokfok mutunpot uh, na sala ke sasa lun mweun, ac likiya mwe fokfok mutunpot uh sisken pot ah, ac elosak fohk sisken pot uh, ac pukpuk laf.
In his right hand was the divination for Jerusalem, to set battering rams, to open the mouth in the slaughter, to lift up the voice with shouting, to set battering rams against the gates, to cast up mounds, to build forts.
23 Mwet Jerusalem ac tia lulalfongi ma inge mweyen elos orala tari sie wuleang inmasrlolos. Tusruktu kas in palu inge akesmakyalos ke ma koluk lalos, ac akkalemye nu selos lah elos ac fah sruoh.
It shall be to them as a false divination in their sight, who have sworn oaths to them; but he brings iniquity to memory, that they may be taken.
24 Pa inge ma nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, fahk uh: Ma koluk lowos kalem sin mwet e nukewa, ac elos etu lupan ma koluk lowos uh. Kalem ke mukuikui nukewa lowos, na nga fah eiskowosyang nu inpoun mwet lokoalok lowos.
"Therefore thus says the LORD: 'Because you have made your iniquity to be remembered, in that your transgressions are uncovered, so that in all your doings your sins appear; because you have come to memory, you shall be taken with the hand.
25 “Kom su mwet kol koluk ac sesuwos lun Israel, len in kaiyuk safla lom pa ac tuku inge.
"'You, deadly wounded wicked one, the prince of Israel, whose day has come, in the time of the iniquity of the end,
26 Nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, pa fahk ma inge. Eisya tefuro lom ac susu lom an. Wangin ma ac fah sifil oana meet. Akleumye mwet pusisel, ac akpusiselye mwet leum.
thus says the LORD: "Remove the turban, and take off the crown; this shall be no more the same; exalt that which is low, and abase that which is high."
27 Musalla! Musalla! Aok, nga fah oru tuh siti sac in musalla. Tusruktu ac fah tia sikyak nwe ke pacl se mwet se ma nga sulela el tuku in kalyei siti uh. El pa nga fah sang siti uh nu se.
I will overturn, overturn, overturn it: this also shall be no more, until he come whose right it is; and I will give it him.'
28 “Mwet sukawil, palye ac fahkak ma nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, fahk nu sin mwet Ammon, su fahk kas koluk lain mwet Israel. Fahk nu selos: ‘Sie cutlass pa akola in kunausla; Akmusrala tari in uniya, in sarmelik oana sarom uh.
"You, son of man, prophesy, and say, 'Thus says the LORD concerning the people of Ammon, and concerning their reproach; and say, "A sword, a sword is drawn, for the slaughter it is furbished, to cause it to devour, that it may be as lightning;
29 Aruruma kowos liye uh tia pwaye, ac ma kowos motko mu ac sikyak uh ma kikiap. Kowos mwet sesuwos ac koluklana. Len in kalya safla lowos ac tuku. Cutlass uh akola in twacla inkwawowos.
while they see for you false visions, while they divine lies to you, to lay you on the necks of the wicked who are deadly wounded, whose day has come in the time of the iniquity of the end.
30 “‘Filiya cutlass an! Nga ac nununkekowos in acn kowos orekla we, in facl su kowos isusla we.
Cause it to return into its sheath. In the place where you were created, in the land of your birth, will I judge you.
31 Kowos ac pula kasrkusrak luk ke nga ac fuhleot nu fowos oana sie e firir. Ac nga ac eiskowosyang nu inpoun mwet sulallal, su arulana etu in kunaus mau.
I will pour out my indignation on you; I will blow on you with the fire of my wrath; and I will deliver you into the hand of brutish men, skillful to destroy.
32 Kowos ac fah isisyak ke e. Srah keiwos ac fah sororla fin facl suwos sifacna, ac wangin sie mwet ac esam kowos.’” LEUM GOD pa fahk ma inge.
You shall be for fuel to the fire; your blood shall be in the midst of the land; you shall be remembered no more: for I, the LORD, have spoken it."'"
