Ezekiel 22
1 LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sik ac fahk,
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
2 “Kom, mwet sukawil moul la, ya kom akola in nununku siti se inge su sesseslana ke mwet akmas? Oru in arulana kalem sel ma srungayuk nukewa ma el orala.
And thou son of man, dost thou not judge, dost thou not judge the city of blood?
3 Fahkang nu sin siti sac ma nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, fahk inge: Ke sripen arulana pus mwet lom sifacna su kom uniya, ac oayapa kom akfohkfokyekomla ke kom alu nu ke ma sruloala, ouinge pacl lom apkuranme.
And thou shalt shew her all her abominations, and shalt say: Thus saith the Lord God: This is the city that sheddeth blood in the midst of her, that her time may come: and that hath made idols against herself, to defile herself.
4 Oasr mwatum ke akmas kom orala inge, ac kom fohkfokla ke sripen ma sruloala su kom orala. Ke ma inge len se srisrngiyuki nu sum ac tuku, na safla pacl lom! Pa inge sripa sis nga lela tuh mwet in facl saya uh in aksruksrukye kom, ac mutunfacl nukewa in isrun kom.
Thou art become guilty in thy blood which thou hast shed: and thou art defiled in thy idols which thou hast made: and thou hast made thy days to draw near, and hast brought on the time of thy years: therefore have I made thee a reproach to the Gentiles, and a mockery to all countries.
5 Mutunfacl su apkuran ac oayapa su loessula ac isrun kom ke sripen kom tia moul ye ma sap.
Those that are near, and those that are far from thee, shall triumph over thee: thou filthy one, infamous, great in destruction.
6 Mwet kol lun Israel nukewa lulalfongi ke ku lalos sifacna ac orek akmas.
Behold the princes of Israel, every one hath employed his arm in thee to shed blood.
7 Wangin mwet in siti uh sunakin papa ac nina kialos. Elos orek kutasrik nu sin mwetsac, ac aklalfonye katinmas ac tulik mukaimtal.
They have abused father and mother in thee, they have oppressed the stranger in the midst of thee, they have grieved the fatherless and widow in thee.
8 Elos tia akfulatye acn mutal, ac tia pac karinganang len Sabbath.
Thou hast despised my sanctuaries, and profaned my sabbaths.
9 Kutu sin mwet lom uh fahk kas kikiap ke mwet ngia in pwanang in anwuki elos. Kutu selos kang mwe mongo ma kisala nu ke ma sruloala. Kutu mwet uh tia tui in oru lung koluk lalos.
Slanderers have been in thee to shed blood, and they have eaten upon the mountains in thee, they have committed wickedness in the midst of thee.
10 Kutu selos oan yurin mutan kien papa tumalos. Kutu pac selos sifacna sruinku ac orek kosro nu sin mutan ke pacl elos musen malem.
They have discovered the nakedness of their father in thee, they have humbled the uncleanness of the menstruous woman in thee.
11 Kutu mwet uh orek kosro yurin mutan kien siena mukul, ac kutu nu sin mutan kien wen natulos, ku mutan wialos ke siena nina.
And every one hath committed abomination with his neighbour’s wife, and the father in law hath wickedly defiled his daughter in law, the brother hath oppressed his sister the daughter of his father in thee.
12 Kutu sin mwet lom uh moul nu se in orek akmas. Kutu akyokye lupan kapak elos eis sin mwet Israel wialos su ngusr mani selos, ac elos kasrupi ke ma laesla inge. Elos mulkinyula.” LEUM GOD Fulatlana pa fahk ma inge.
They have taken gifts in thee to shed blood: thou hast taken usury and increase, and hast covetously oppressed thy neighbours: and then hast forgotten me, saith the Lord God.
13 “Nga fah pasolya pouk in kasrkusrak luk ke sripen pisrapasr ac akmas lom uh.
Behold, I have clapped my hands at thy covetousness, which thou hast exercised and at the blood that hath been shed: In the midst of thee.
14 Nga fin filiya pouk fom, ya kom nunku mu ac oasr pulaik lom, ku kom ac ku in sifil srukak poum? Tia ku! Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge, ac nga ac oru oana ma nga fahk.
Shall thy heart endure, or shall thy hands prevail ill the days which I will bring upon thee: I the Lord have spoken, and will do it.
15 Nga ac fah akfahsryelik mwet lom nu in mutunfacl nukewa, ac tulokinya orekma koluk lom uh.
And I will disperse thee in the nations, and will scatter thee among the countries, and I will put an end to thy uncleanness in thee.
16 Ouinge mutunfacl saya ac fah tia sifil akfulatye kom, ac kom ac fah etu lah nga pa LEUM GOD.”
And I will possess thee in the sight of the Gentiles, and thou shalt know that I am the Lord.
17 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik,
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
18 “Mwet sukawil, wanginla sripen mwet Israel nu sik. Elos oana pukun osra — copper, tin, iron, ac lead — tukun kofelik silver uh liki eot ma manman ke sie funyu.
Son of man, the house of Israel is become dress to me: all these are brass, and tin, and iron, and lead, in the midst of the furnace: they are become the dress of silver.
19 Ke ma inge, nga LEUM GOD Fulatlana, fahk nu selos lah wangin sripalos nu sik oapana osra inge. Nga ac fah oraloseni nukewa nu in acn Jerusalem
Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Because you are all turned into dress, therefore behold I will gather you together in the midst of Jerusalem.
20 oana ke eot ma oasr silver, copper, iron, lead ac tin loac uh orekeni in likliki in sie funyu. Fulen kasrkusrak luk ac fah oru elos in kofelik, oana fulen e uh oru eot uh in kofelik.
As they gather silver, and brass, and tin, and iron, and lead in the midst of the furnace: that I may kindle a fire in it to melt it: so will I gather you together in my fury and in my wrath, and will take my rest, and I will melt you down.
21 Aok, nga fah oraloseni nu Jerusalem, tanak sie e ah yalos, ac oru elos in kofelik ke kasrukusrak luk.
And I will gather you together, and will burn you in the fire of my wrath, and you shall be melted in the midst thereof.
22 Elos fah kofelik in Jerusalem oana ke silver uh kofelik in funyu uh, na elos fah etu lah elos oan ye kasrkusrak lun LEUM GOD.”
As silver is melted in the midst of the furnace, so shall you be in the midst thereof: and you shall know that I am the Lord, when I have poured out my indignation upon you.
23 LEUM GOD El sifil kaskas nu sik ac fahk,
And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
24 “Mwet sukawil, fahk nu sin mwet Israel lah facl selos uh tiana mutal. Ke ma inge nga ac akkeokye ke kasrkusrak luk.
Son of man, say to her: Thou art a land that is unclean, and not rained upon in the day of wrath.
25 Mwet kol inge elos oana lion ngutngut ma sreya monin kosro ma elos uniya uh. Mwet kol elos uniya mukul puspis, na elos eisla mani ac acn lalos. Ke akmas lalos inge elos akpusye katinmas uh.
There is a conspiracy of prophets in the midst thereof: like a lion that roareth and catcheth the prey, they have devoured souls, they have taken riches and hire, they have made many widows in the midst thereof.
26 Mwet tol uh kunaus ma sap luk ac wangin sunak lalos ke ma su mutal. Elos tia akilen inmasrlon ma mutal ac ma tia mutal. Elos tia luti lah mea inmasrlon ma nasnas ac ma su tia nasnas, ac elos pilesru len Sabbath. Ke sripa inge, mwet Israel elos tia sunakinyu.
Her priests have despised my law, and have defiled my sanctuaries: they have put no difference between holy and profane: nor have distinguished between the polluted and the clean: and they have turned away their eyes from my sabbaths, and I was profaned in the midst of them.
27 Mwet wal fulat lun Israel elos oana kosro wolf ma seya kosro ma elos uniya uh. Elos orek akmas elos in mau kasrupi.
Her princes in the midst of her, are like wolves ravening the prey to shed blood, and to destroy souls, and to run after gains through covetousness.
28 Mwet palu elos okanla ma koluk inge oana ke mwet uh ac sang fasr sruloala sinka ke lohm uh in okanla acn munas kac. Aruruma elos liye uh tia pwaye, kas in palu lalos kikiap. Elos fahk mu elos tafu kas lun LEUM GOD Fulatlana, tuh nga, LEUM GOD, tiana kaskas nu selos.
And her prophets have daubed them without tempering the mortar, seeing vain things, and divining lies unto them, saying: Thus saith the Lord God: when the Lord hath not spoken.
29 Mwet kasrup elos kutasrik ac pisrapasr. Elos oru koluk nu sin mwet sukasrup, ac aklalfonye mwetsac uh.
The people of the land have used oppression, and committed robbery: they afflicted the needy and poor, and they oppressed the stranger by calumny without judgment.
30 Nga suk sie mwet ma ac ku in musaela pot uh, in tu ke acn ma pot uh raki we, ac in loango acn uh ke kasrkusrak luk apkuran in kunausla. Tusruktu wanginna mwet nga konauk.
And I sought among them for a man that might set up a hedge, and stand in the gap before me in favour of the land, that I might not destroy it: and I found none.
31 Ke ma inge nga ac okoala kasrkusrak luk nu faclos, ac kunauselosla oana sie e ke ma elos orala.” LEUM GOD Fulatlana pa fahk ma inge.
And I poured out my indignation upon them, in the fire of my wrath I consumed them: I have rendered their way upon their own head, saith the Lord God.
