< Ezekiel 24 >
1 Ke len se aksingoul in malem aksingoul ke yac akeu in sruoh lasr, LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sik ac fahk,
Again, in the ninth year, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
2 “Kom, mwet sukawil moul la, akilenya len se inge, mweyen pa inge len se ma tokosra lun Babylonia el mutawauk in kuhlusya acn Jerusalem.
“Son of man, write the name of the day, this same day. The king of Babylon drew close to Jerusalem this same day.
3 Fahkang nu sin mwet luk su lungse lainyu, pupulyuk se inge ma nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, oru nu selos: Filiya sie tup an fin e uh Ac nwakla ke kof.
Utter a parable to the rebellious house, and tell them, ‘The Lord GOD says, “Put the cauldron on the fire. Put it on, and also pour water into it.
4 Sang ipin ikwa ma wo emeet nu loac — Pap in pao ac pap in nia — Oayapa ikwa ma oasr sri kac su yu pac.
Gather its pieces into it, even every good piece: the thigh and the shoulder. Fill it with the choice bones.
5 Orekmakin ikwen sheep ma arulana wo; Orani etong an nu ye tup an. Oru kof an in poel; Na poeleak kewa sri ac ikwa an.”
Take the choice of the flock, and also a pile of wood for the bones under the cauldron. Make it boil well. Yes, let its bones be boiled within it.”
6 Pa inge ma LEUM GOD Fulatlana El fahk: “We nu sin siti lun mwet akmas uh! El oana sie tup rasla ma tiana aknasnasyeyuk. Kais sie ipin ikwa ituk na ituk nwe ke wangin sie ip lula.
“‘Therefore the Lord GOD says: “Woe to the bloody city, to the cauldron whose rust is in it, and whose rust hasn’t gone out of it! Take out of it piece after piece without casting lots for it.
7 Akmas orek in siti uh, tusruktu srah uh tiana sororla nu fin fohk uh, yen kutkut uh ku in afinya, a sororla nu fin sie eot ma oan kalem.
“‘“For the blood she shed is in the middle of her. She set it on the bare rock. She didn’t pour it on the ground, to cover it with dust.
8 Nga mansis srah uh in oanna insac, yen ma ac tia ku in wikinyukla, pwanang mwet uh in kasrkusrak ac suk in foloksak.”
That it may cause wrath to come up to take vengeance, I have set her blood on the bare rock, that it should not be covered.”
9 “Pa inge ma LEUM GOD Fulatlana El fahk: We nu sin siti akmas sac! Nga ac sifacna elosak eol in etong uh in yohk.
“‘Therefore the Lord GOD says: “Woe to the bloody city! I also will make the pile great.
10 Use pac kutu etong an! Taun in ngeng! Akmolyela ikwa an! Poeli nwe ke na lisr sroano, ac lela sri an in firiryak.
Heap on the wood. Make the fire hot. Boil the meat well. Make the broth thick, and let the bones be burned.
11 Filiya pisin tup osra sacn fin mulut an nwe ke na arulana folla ac srusrala. Na tup sacn ac fah sifil nasnasla ac ras kac uh ac isisla,
Then set it empty on its coals, that it may be hot, and its bronze may burn, and that its filthiness may be molten in it, that its rust may be consumed.
12 finne tia ku in wanginla nufon ras kac an ke e sac.
She is weary with toil; yet her great rust, rust by fire, doesn’t leave her.
13 Jerusalem, orekma koluk lom uh akfohkfokyekomla. Nga ne srike in aknasnasyekomla, tuh kom srakna fohkfok. Kom tia ku in sifil nasnasla nwe ke na kom pula kuiyen kasrkusrak luk uh.
“‘“In your filthiness is lewdness. Because I have cleansed you and you weren’t cleansed, you won’t be cleansed from your filthiness any more, until I have caused my wrath toward you to rest.
14 Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge. Sun tari pacl fal nga in oru ma nga ac oru uh. Nga ac fah tia pilesru orekma koluk lom, ku pakomutom, ku nunak munas nu sum. Ac fah kalyeiyuk kom ke ma kom orala.” LEUM GOD Fulatlana pa fahk ma inge.
“‘“I, the LORD, have spoken it. It will happen, and I will do it. I won’t go back. I won’t spare. I won’t repent. According to your ways and according to your doings, they will judge you,” says the Lord GOD.’”
15 Na LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sik,
Also the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
16 ac fahk, “Mwet sukawil, nga ac eisla moul lun mwet se kom lungse emeet ke sie ouiya na sa. Kom fah tiana torkaskas, ku tung, ku lela sroninmotom in sororla.
“Son of man, behold, I will take away from you the desire of your eyes with one stroke; yet you shall neither mourn nor weep, neither shall your tears run down.
17 Nimet oru in lohngyuk pusren mwemelil lom. Nimet kom eisla susu liki sifom, ku sarukla fahluk liki niom in akkalemye lah kom asor. Nimet afinya motom, ku kang mwe mongo ma mwet asor uh kang.”
Sigh, but not aloud. Make no mourning for the dead. Bind your headdress on you, and put your sandals on your feet. Don’t cover your lips, and don’t eat mourner’s bread.”
18 Ke lotutang sac, nga tuh sramsram nu sin mwet uh. Ke eku sacna, mutan kiuk uh misa, ac ke len toko ah nga oru oana ma sapkinyuk nu sik.
So I spoke to the people in the morning, and at evening my wife died. So I did in the morning as I was commanded.
19 Na mwet uh siyuk sik, “Efu ku kom oru ouingan?”
The people asked me, “Won’t you tell us what these things mean to us, that you act like this?”
20 Na nga fahk nu selos, “LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sik ac fahk nga in
Then I said to them, “The LORD’s word came to me, saying,
21 tafweot sap soko inge nu suwos, mwet Israel: Kowos insefulatkin ku lun Tempul uh. Kowos lungsena fahsri ac intoein. Tusruktu LEUM GOD El ac fah akfohkfokye. Ac mwet fusr in sou lowos su lula in acn Jerusalem ac fah anwuki ke mweun.
‘Speak to the house of Israel, “The Lord GOD says: ‘Behold, I will profane my sanctuary, the pride of your power, the desire of your eyes, and that which your soul pities; and your sons and your daughters whom you have left behind will fall by the sword.
22 Na kowos fah oru oana ma nga oru inge. Kowos fah tia afinya motowos, ku kang mwe mongo nun mwet asor.
You will do as I have done. You won’t cover your lips or eat mourner’s bread.
23 Kowos ac fah susuyang ac fahlukyang, ac tia asor ku tung. Kowos ac fah srila ke sripen ma koluk lowos, ac kowos fah sasao inmasrlowos sifacna.
Your turbans will be on your heads, and your sandals on your feet. You won’t mourn or weep; but you will pine away in your iniquities, and moan one toward another.
24 Na nga ac fah sie mwe akul nu suwos. Kowos ac fah oru ma nukewa oana ma nga oru. LEUM GOD El fahk mu pacl se ma inge ac sikyak uh, kowos ac fah etu lah El pa LEUM GOD Fulatlana.”
Thus Ezekiel will be a sign to you; according to all that he has done, you will do. When this comes, then you will know that I am the Lord GOD.’”’”
25 Na LEUM GOD El fahk, “Mwet sukawil, inge nga ac fah eisla lukelos Tempul fokoko se inge, su elos tuh engankin ac insefulatkin, su elos lungsena fahsri ac intoein. Ac nga fah eisla wen ac acn natulos lukelos.
“You, son of man, shouldn’t it be in the day when I take from them their strength, the joy of their glory, the desire of their eyes, and that whereupon they set their heart—their sons and their daughters—
26 Ke len se ma nga ac oru ma inge, sie mwet su kaingkunla ongoiya sac ac tuku ac fahkak ma inge nu sum.
that in that day he who escapes will come to you, to cause you to hear it with your ears?
27 Ke len sacna, oalum ac fah ikakla ac kom ac ku in sifil kaskas, na kom fah sramsram nu sel. Ke ouiya se inge kom ac fah sie mwe akul nu sin mwet uh, na elos ac fah etu lah nga pa LEUM GOD.”
In that day your mouth will be opened to him who has escaped, and you will speak and be no more mute. So you will be a sign to them. Then they will know that I am the LORD.”
