Isaiah 18
1 Layen nu roto ke infacl in acn Ethiopia, oasr sie facl lohngyuk pusren posohksok we.
Ah, land of the buzzing of wings, which is beyond the rivers of Ethiopia;
2 Mwet roso fulat elos kal tuku liki facl sac ke Infacl Nile fin oak okoalos orekla ke loa. Folokla nu yen suwos, kowos mwet utuk kas mulah! Us sap soko nu in facl suwos ma masrloeyukelik ke infacl puspis. Facl suwos yohk ac ku. Mwet we elos loeska ac fwel manolos, ac mutunfacl uh nufon sangeng selos.
That sendeth ambassadors by the sea, even in vessels of papyrus upon the waters! Go, ye swift messengers, to a nation tall and of glossy skin, to a people terrible from their beginning onward; a nation that is sturdy and treadeth down, whose land the rivers divide!
3 Kowos nukewa su muta faclu, kowos in lohng akwoya! Kowos in tawi flag in mweun se ma ac amacyak fin mangon eol uh! Porongo pusren mwe ukuk fin kasla!
All ye inhabitants of the world, and ye dwellers on the earth, when an ensign is lifted up on the mountains, see ye; and when the horn is blown, hear ye.
4 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik, “Nga ac fah ngeti inkusrao me, ac misla oana usren fol ke faht uh, fol ke faht uh, ku oana sikyak lun aunfong ke pacl in kosrani.
For thus hath the LORD said unto me: I will hold Me still, and I will look on in My dwelling-place, like clear heat in sunshine, like a cloud of dew in the heat of harvest.
5 Meet liki orekeni grape uh, ke ros farengla nukewa putatla ac grape uh mwesrla, mwet lokoalok fah kunausla mwet Ethiopia — fisrasr oana ke sie mitmit ac pakela lah ke oa in grape uh.
For before the harvest, when the blossom is over, and the bud becometh a ripening grape, He will cut off the sprigs with pruning-hooks, and the shoots will He take away and lop off.
6 Monin mwet mweun lalos ac fah sisila nun won ac kosro lemnak uh. In pacl fol won uh ac fah kang manolos, ac in pacl mihsrisr kosro lemnak uh ac kang manolos.”
They shall be left together unto the ravenous birds of the mountains, and to the beasts of the earth; and the ravenous birds shall summer upon them, and all the beasts of the earth shall winter upon them.
7 Pacl se ac tuku ke mwet loeska ac fwel mano inge, su mutunfacl uh nufon sangeng se, elos ac us mwe sang lalos nu sin LEUM GOD Kulana liki facl yohk ac ku se inge ma masrloeyukelik ke infacl puspis. Elos ac fah tuku nu ke Eol Zion, yen mwet uh alu nu sin LEUM GOD Kulana we.
In that time shall a present be brought unto the LORD of hosts of a people tall and of glossy skin, and from a people terrible from their beginning onward; a nation that is sturdy and treadeth down, whose land the rivers divide, to the place of the name of the LORD of hosts, the mount Zion.
