Isaiah 19

1 Kas in fahkak inge ma ke acn Egypt. LEUM GOD El ac tuku nu Egypt fin sie pukunyeng na mui. Ma sruloala in acn Egypt rarrar ye mutal, ac insien mwet Egypt uh munasla.

The prophecy concerning Egypt. Behold, Jehovah rideth upon a swift cloud, And cometh to Egypt; The gods of Egypt tremble at his presence, And the heart of Egypt melteth within her.

2 LEUM GOD El fahk, “Nga fah purakak mweun inmasrlon mwet Egypt Sifacna — tamulel ac fah lain tamulel, ac mwet tulan lain mwet tulan. Siti we ac fah alein sie sin sie, ac tokosra su alein ac fah amei in sukok lah su kac ac kol.

“I will set the Egyptians against the Egyptians; Brother shall fight against brother, And neighbor against neighbor; City against city, And kingdom against kingdom.

3 Nga ac fah akfohsyauk pwapa lun mwet Egypt ac oru in wanginla finsrak lalos. Elos ac fah siyuk kasru sin ma sruloala lalos, ac lolngok yurin mwet inutnut ac siyuk kasru sin ngunin mwet misa.

The spirit of Egypt shall fail within her, And her devices I will bring to naught. Then shall they consult the idols, and the sorcerers, And the necromancers, and the wizards.

4 Nga ac fah asang mwet Egypt nu inpoun sie tokosra sulallal ac koluk, su ac fah leum faclos. Nga, LEUM GOD Kulana, pa fahk ma inge.”

But I will give up the Egyptians to the hands of a cruel lord, And a fierce king shall rule over them,” Saith the Lord, Jehovah of hosts.

5 Kof ke Infacl Nile ac sriksrikeni nwe ke na mihnla.

Then shall the waters fail from the river, Yea, the river shall be wasted and dried up.

6 Acn ma kof tuh soror we meet ac mwesia nwe ke kolukla fohlo. Loa ac mah ma kap pe infacl uh ac fah masla,

The streams shall become putrid; The canals of Egypt shall be emptied and dried up; The reed and the rush shall wither.

7 ac fita, ac ma nukewa ma yukwiyuk pe Infacl Nile, fah paola ac ukukla.

The meadows by the river, by the borders of the river, And all that groweth by the river, Shall wither, be blasted, and be no more.

8 Elos nukewa su patur ke Infacl Nile fah sasao ac tung. Ka ac kwa lalos ac wanginla sripa.

Then shall the fishermen mourn; All they that cast the hook into the river shall lament, And they that spread nets upon the face of the waters shall languish.

9 Elos su orek nuknuk linen ac fah wanginla finsrak lalos.

They, also, that work in flax, And they that weave white linen, shall be confounded.

10 Mwet otwot ac mwet pah in orala ma usrnguk ac fosrngala ac supwarlana.

Her pillars are broken down, And all who labor for hire are grieved in heart.

11 Mwet kol lun Siti Zoan elos lalfon! Mukul ma arulana lalmwetmet in acn Egypt elos sang kas in kasru na sutuu ac lalfon! Elos ac fahk fuka nu sin tokosra lah elos ma in sou lun mwet luti fulat ac tokosra lun pacl meet ah?

Surely the princes of Zoan are fools; The wise counsellors of Pharaoh have been stupid in their counsels. How, then, can ye say to Pharaoh, “I am the son of the wise, The son of ancient kings”?

12 Tokosra Egypt, pia mwet kasru lalmwetmet lom uh? Sahp elos ac ku in fahk nu sum ma LEUM GOD Kulana El akoo in oru nu in facl Egypt.

Where are they now, thy wise men? Let them tell thee now, so that men may know it, What Jehovah of hosts hath determined concerning Egypt!

13 Mwet pwapa fulat lun siti Zoan ac Memphis elos lalfon. Fal in elos pa kol mutunfacl se inge, a elos sang kas in kasru na sutuu.

The princes of Zoan are become fools; The princes of Noph are deceived, Even the chiefs of her tribes have caused Egypt to err.

14 LEUM GOD El oru tuh kas in kasru lalos in akfohsyeak mwet uh. Ke sripa inge, ma nukewa Egypt el oru tafongla. Elos tukulkul oana sie mwet sruhi su musrela fin woht lal sifacna.

Jehovah hath mingled within her a spirit of perverseness, And they have caused Egypt to err in all her works, As a drunkard staggereth in his vomit.

15 Wangin sie mwet fulat ku pusisel, kasrup ku sukasrup, in fahl Egypt su ku in kasru mutunfacl sac.

There shall be nothing which can be done by Egypt, By the head, or the tail, the palm-branch, or the rush.

16 Oasr pacl se ac tuku ke mwet Egypt ac fah sangengtot oana mutan uh. Elos ac rarrar ke tuninfong pacl se ke elos liye lah LEUM GOD Kulana El asroela paol in kaelos.

In that day shall the Egyptians be like women; They shall tremble and fear On account of the shaking of the hand of Jehovah of hosts, Which he shall shake against them.

17 Mwet Egypt ac fah arulana sangeng sin mwet Judah ke pacl nukewa elos ac esamak mwe ongoiya ma LEUM GOD Kulana El akoo nu selos.

The land of Judah shall be a terror to Egypt; Every one to whom it is mentioned shall tremble On account of the purpose of Jehovah of hosts, Which he hath determined against them.

18 Ke pacl sac ac tuku, kas Hebrew ac fah orekmakinyuk in siti limekosr in acn Egypt. Mwet we ac fah oru fulahk lalos Inen LEUM GOD Kulana. Sie sin siti inge ac fah pangpang, “Siti lun Faht.”

In that day there shall be five cities in the land of Egypt Speaking the language of Canaan, And swearing by Jehovah of hosts; One of them shall be called the City of the Sun.

19 Ke pacl sac ac tuku, ac fah oasr sie loang nu sin LEUM GOD in acn Egypt, ac soko sru eot ac kisakinyuk nu sel ke masrol se siska nu kutulap in acn Egypt.

In that day there shall be an altar to Jehovah in the midst of the land of Egypt, And in the border of it a pillar to Jehovah,

20 Ma inge ac fah sie mwe akul lah LEUM GOD El oasr in facl Egypt. Kutena pacl mwet we elos akkeokyeyuk ac elos pang nu sin LEUM GOD in kasrelos, El ac supwala sie mwet in molelosla.

Which shall be a sign and a witness For Jehovah of hosts in the land of Egypt, That they cried to Jehovah on account of their oppressors, And he sent them a saviour, and a defender, who delivered them.

21 LEUM GOD El ac fahkulak sifacna nu sin mwet Egypt, ac elos fah etal ac alu nu sel, ac us mwe kisa ac mwe sang nu sel. Elos fah orek wulela ku nu sel, ac oru oana ma elos wulela kac.

Thus shall Jehovah be made known to Egypt, And the Egyptians shall know Jehovah in that day, And shall offer him sacrifices and oblations; They shall make vows to Jehovah, and perform them.

22 LEUM GOD El fah kalyei mwet Egypt, tusruktu El ac fah akkeyalosla. Elos ac forla nu sel, ac El fah lohng pre lalos ac akkeyalos.

Thus Jehovah will smite Egypt; he will smite and heal her; They shall return to Jehovah; Therefore will he hear and heal them.

23 Ke pacl sacn ac tuku, ac fah oasr soko inkanek lulap inmasrlon acn Egypt ac Assyria. Mwet uh ac fufahsryesr inmasrlon facl luo inge, ac elos fah tukeni alu.

In that day shall there he a highway from Egypt to Assyria, And the Assyrian shall come into Egypt, And the Egyptian into Assyria, And the Egyptians shall worship with the Assyrians.

24 In pacl sacn, Israel ac fah wela pac Egypt ac Assyria, ac mutunfacl tolu inge ac fah mwe insewowo nu sin faclu nufon.

In that day shall Israel be the third In connection with Egypt and Assyria, A blessing in the midst of the earth.

25 LEUM GOD Kulana El fah akinsewowoyalos ac fahk, “Nga fah akinsewowoye kom, Egypt, mwet luk; ac kom, Assyria, su nga orala; ac kom, Israel, mwet solla luk.”

Jehovah of hosts shall bless them, and say, Blessed be Egypt, my people, And Assyria, the work of my hands, And Israel, my inheritance!
