< Ezekiel 36 >
1 Na LEUM GOD El fahk, “Kom, mwet sukawil moul la, kaskas nu sin eol lun Israel ac fahk elos in porongo kas su nga,
“And you, son of man, prophesy to the mountains of Israel and say: Mountains of Israel, listen to this message from the Lord.
2 LEUM GOD Fulatlana, ac fahk nu selos: Mwet lokoalok lun Israel elos israsrinkusrai ac fahk, “Fineol fulat ma oan oemeet me, inge ma lac lasr!’
This is what the Lord God says: The enemy said about you, ‘Aha! These old high places now belong to us,’
3 “Fahkak kas in palu ac akkalemye ma nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, ac fahk inge. Ke mutunfacl ma atulani nu sum elos mweuni kom ac sruokya fineol lun Israel, mwet nukewa arulana isrun kom.
so you must prophesy and announce that this is what the Lord God says: They have turned you into a wasteland, attacking you from every direction, so that you became the property of other nations and people gossiped about you and slandered you.
4 Inge porongo ma nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, ac fahk nu suwos fineol ac inging uh, infacl srisrik ac infahlfal uh, acn su oan in musalla la ac siti ma wanginla mwet we, su pisreyukla ma we ac aksruksrukiyuk sin mutunfacl nukewa ma raunikowosla.
So now, mountains of Israel, listen to the message from the Lord God. This is what the Lord God says to the mountains and hills, to the ravines and valleys, to the deserted ruins and abandoned towns, that the other nations around you have looted and mocked.
5 “Nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, fahk ma inge in fol lun kasrkusrak luk lain mutunfacl su apunla acn uh — aok lain facl Edom yokna. Elos tuh israsrinkusra ac filangkin ke elos eisla facl sik ac sruokya acn in tohf kosro we tuh in ma lalos.
Yes, this is what the Lord God says: I have spoken passionately against these other nations, and against all the Edomites, who took over my country and made it theirs, happily celebrating as they looted the land and treated me with complete contempt.
6 “Ke ma inge, kom in fahk kas in palu inge nu sin Israel. Fahkang nu sin eol, inging, infacl, ac infahlfal uh kas ma nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, ac fahk ke kasrkusrak ac lemta luk, ke sripen lumah ma facl saya uh oru in akmwekinyalos ac aklusrongtenyalos.
So prophesy concerning the country of Israel and tell the mountains and hills, the ravines and valleys, that this is what the Lord God says: Just watch, for I have spoken passionately about this because you have had to put up with this mockery from other nations.
7 Nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, wulela ku mu mutunfacl nukewa ma raunelosla inge ac fah arulana akpusiselyeyuk.
This is what the Lord God says: I hold up my hand and swear that the other nations around you will suffer their own shame.
8 Na sak nukewa fineol in acn Israel ac fah ungungi ke sra ac isus fahko nu suwos mwet Israel, su mwet luk. Ac tia paht, kowos ac sifil foloko nu in acn suwos uh.
But you, mountains of Israel, will grow trees that will produce fruit for my people Israel, for soon they'll be coming home.
9 Nga ac fah wi kowos, ac oru tuh acn in ima lowos in sifil kihlingyukyak in fisrasr, ac sacn sunowos fah sifilpa yoki fac.
Look, I am for you and I will help you. Your land will be ploughed, and crops will be sown.
10 Nga fah akpusye mwet in facl sum. Kowos ac fah sifilpa muta in siti, ac musaeak ma nukewa ma tuh musalla we.
You will support the people of Israel as they return and grow in number. People will live in the towns again and rebuild the ruins.
11 Nga fah akpusye mwet ac cow nutuwos uh. Kowos ac fah arulana puseni liki meet, oayapa tulik nutuwos ac fah arulana puseni. Nga ac fah oru kowos in sifilpa muta we oana meet ah, ac oru tuh kowos in kapkapak yohk liki na meet ah. Na kowos fah etu lah nga pa LEUM GOD.
The number of your people will grow— they will have many children. The animals too will have many young. I will make sure that you're inhabited just as you used to be, and I will make you more prosperous that you were before. Then you will know that I am the Lord.
12 Kowos mwet Israel, mwet luk, nga ac fah folokinkowosme in sifilpa muta fin acn suwos inge. Ac fah ma suwos sifacna, ac tulik nutuwos ac fah tia sifil misa ke masrinsral.
I will have my people Israel walk on you mountains. You will be theirs; you will belong to them, and you will no longer rob your nation of their children.
13 “Nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, fahk: Pwaye lah mwet uh pangon facl suwos facl in mongo mwet, ac elos fahk pac mu facl se inge pisrala tulik nutin mutunfacl suwos.
This is what the Lord God says: Because people say to you, ‘You eat people, and rob your nation of their children,’
14 Tusruktu, ingela facl se inge ac fah tia sifil mongo mwet, ku pisre tulik nutuwos. Nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, pa fahk ma inge.
from now on you won't eat people or rob your nation of their children, declares the Lord God.
15 Nga fah tia sifil lela kowos in lohng ke mutunfacl saya uh ac aksruksrukye kowos, ku liye ke mwet uh isrun kowos. Acn uh ac tia sifil pisre tulik natul uh. Nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, pa fahk ma inge.”
I'm going to stop these nations insulting you, and you won't have to put up with their taunts any more, or make the nation fall, declares the Lord God.”
16 LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sik ac fahk,
Another message from Lord came to me, saying,
17 “Mwet sukawil, ke mwet Israel tuh muta in facl selos, elos tuh akfohkfokyelana acn uh ke ouiyen moul lalos ac orekma lalos. Nga liye tuh ouiyen moul lalos inge akfohkfokyalos oana sie mutan el fohkfokla ke musen malem lal.
“Son of man, when the people of Israel were living in their country, they made it unclean by the way they behaved, by what they did. The way they were behaving in my presence was like the ceremonial uncleanness of a woman's period.
18 Nga tuh sang elos in pula upaiyen kasrkusrak luk ke sripen akmas elos oru fin facl sac, oayapa ke sripen ma sruloala ma elos akfohkfokyela acn uh kac.
So I became angry with them because of murders they committed in the country, and because they made it unclean by worshiping idols.
19 Nga tuh kaskas lainulos ke sripen ouiyen moul ac orekma lalos, ac nga akfahsryeloselik inmasrlon mutunfacl puspis.
I scattered them among the different nations and countries. I judged them according to the way they had behaved and what they did.
20 Yen nukewa elos som nu we, elos aklusrongtenye Ine mutal luk, mweyen mwet uh fahk mu, ‘Mwet inge mwet lun LEUM GOD, tusruktu elos lisyukla liki facl sel.’
But wherever they went among the nations, they ruined my reputation, because people said about them, ‘These are the Lord's people, but they had to leave his country.’
21 Ma inge tuh oru nga nunku na yohk ke Ine mutal luk, mweyen mwet Israel uh akpusiselye Inek yen nukewa elos som nu we.
So I had to take care of my reputation for holiness which the people of Israel had ruined among the nations where they'd gone.
22 “Ke ma inge, fahkang nu sin mwet Israel kas su nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, fahk nu selos uh: Ma nga akola in oru inge tia ma ke sripowos mwet Israel, a nga ac oru ke sripen Ine mutal luk, su kowos aklusrongtenye in acn nukewa ma kowos som nu we uh.
Tell the people of Israel that this is what the Lord God says: I'm not doing this for you, people of Israel, but for my reputation for holiness, which you ruined among the nations where you went.
23 Ke nga ac fahkak nu sin mutunfacl uh lupan mutal lun Ine fulatlana luk — Ine se su kowos aklusrongtenye inmasrlolos uh — na elos ac fah etu lah nga pa LEUM GOD. Nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, pa fahk ma inge. Nga ac fah orekmakin kowos in akkalemye nu sin mutunfacl uh lah nga mutal.
I will reveal the holy nature and importance of my reputation, which has been ruined among the nations, the reputation you have ruined among them. Then the nations will know that I am the Lord, declares the Lord God, when I reveal my holiness through you as they watch.
24 Nga ac fah uskowosme liki facl nukewa ma kowos muta we, ac folokinkowosla nu in facl suwos sifacna.
For I will bring you back from among the nations, gathering you from all the different countries, and I will lead you back into your own country.
25 Nga ac fah usrukya kof nasnas nu fowos, ac aknasnasyekowosla liki ma sruloala ac ma nukewa ma akfohkfokyekowosla uh.
I will also pour pure water over you, and you will be clean. I will wash you clean from all your uncleanness and from all your idols.
26 Nga ac fah sot nu suwos inse sasu ac nunak sasu. Nga ac fah eisla liki kowos inse likkeke su oana eot, ac asot nu suwos inse akosten.
I will give you a new mind and I will put a new spirit inside you. I will take away your stubborn mind and I will give you a loving mind.
27 Nga ac fah filiya ngunik in kowos, ac oru tuh kowos in fahsr tukun ma sap luk, ac liyaung ma nukewa nga sapkin nu suwos.
I will put my Spirit inside you so you will follow my laws and remember to do what I tell you.
28 Na kowos fah muta in facl se su nga tuh sang nu sin mwet matu lowos meet ah. Kowos ac fah mwet luk, ac nga fah God lowos.
Then you will live in the country I gave to your forefathers. You will be my people, and I will be your God.
29 Nga ac fah molikowosla liki ma nukewa ma akfohkfokyekowosla. Nga ac fah sapkin tuh fokin ima lowos in arulana puseni, in tia sifil oasr pacl in sracl.
I will save you from everything that makes you unclean. I will make sure you have plenty of grain. I won't send you any famines.
30 Nga ac fah akpusye fokinsak ac fokin ima lowos, tuh in tia sifil oasr pacl in sracl in akmwekinye kowos inmasrlon mutunfacl saya uh.
I will also make sure you have good harvests from your orchards and fields, so that you won't be mocked by other nations anymore because of famine.
31 Na kowos ac fah esamak orekma koluk ac sesuwos lowos meet ah, ac kowos ac fah sifacna mwekyekin kowos ke sripen orekma koluk ac sufal lowos.
Then you will remember your evil ways and terrible things you've done, and you'll hate yourselves for your sins and disgusting actions.
32 Mwet Israel, nga ke kowos in etu lah nga tia oru ma inge ke sripowos. Nga kena kowos in arulana mwekin ac oakasla ke orekma koluk lowos. Nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, pa fahk ma inge.”
You need to realize that I'm not doing this for your sake, declares the Lord God. You should be ashamed and embarrassed for what you've done, people of Israel!
33 Na LEUM GOD Fulatlana El fahk, “Ke nga ac aknasnasyekowosla liki ma koluk lowos, nga fah lela tuh kowos in sifil muta in siti suwos, ac musaela ma nukewa ma musalla we.
This is what the Lord God says: On the day I make you clean from all your sins, I will have you live in your towns again and make sure the ruins are rebuilt.
34 Mwet nukewa ma tuh fahsr in ima lowos elos tuh liye lah acn uh turangangla, tusruktu nga ac oru kowos in sifilpa yokwala.
The land that was deserted will be cultivated again instead of looking abandoned to everyone passing by.
35 Mwet nukewa ac fah sramsramkin facl se inge, su tuh oana sie acn mwesis ac inge ekla oana Ima Eden, ac siti su tuh arulana musalla ac pisreyukla ma nukewa we, inge sifil potiyukyak ac mwet uh muta we.
Then they will say, ‘This deserted land is now like the garden of Eden. The towns that were demolished, abandoned, and destroyed have been restored and strengthened, and people are living in them.’
36 Na mutunfacl atulani lowos su painmoulla uh, fah etu lah nga, LEUM GOD, sifil musaeak siti musalla ac sifil yukwiya ima mwelalla uh. Nga, LEUM GOD, wulela mu nga ac oru ma inge, ac nga fah oru.”
Then those nations around you that are left will acknowledge that I, the Lord, have rebuilt what was demolished, and that I have replanted what was destroyed. I, the Lord, have spoken, and I will carry it out.
37 LEUM GOD Fulatlana El fahk, “Nga ac sifilpa lela mwet Israel in siyuk kasru sik, ac nga ac fah oru elos in arulana puseni, oana un sheep uh.
This is what the Lord God says: I will once again answer the prayers of the people of Israel. This is what I will do for them: I will have them increase in number like a flock.
38 Siti su oan musalla inge ac fah tingtingi ke mwet oana ke acn Jerusalem tuh tingtingi ke sheep in kisa ke pacl in kufwa. Na elos fah etu lah nga pa LEUM GOD.”
Just like all the many flocks that are brought to Jerusalem to be sacrificed during the religious festivals, so the towns that were once demolished will be full of flocks of people. Then they will know that I am the Lord.”
