Isaiah 22
1 Kas in fahkak inge ma ke Infahlfal in Aruruma. Mea sikyak inge? Efu ku mwet nukewa in siti uh fanyak nu fin lohm selos uh?
A declaration about the Valley of Vision: What is the reason that you have all gone up to the housetops?
2 Siti nufon se inge ngisyak, oayapa wohnak ke pusren engan. Mwet misa lowos elos tia anwuki ke elos mweun.
Is it so you may hear a city full of noises, a town full of revelry? Your dead were not killed with the sword, and they did not die in battle.
3 Mwet kol lowos nukewa kaing ac sruhu elos meet liki elos pisrik mwe pisr natulos.
All your rulers fled away together, but they were captured without using a bow; all of them were captured together, though they had fled far away.
4 Filiyula nga in mukena muta eoksra ke mwet luk nukewa su misa. Nimet srike in akwoyeyu.
Therefore I said, “Do not look at me, I will weep bitterly; do not try to comfort me concerning the destruction of the daughter of my people.”
5 Sie pacl in lofongla, musalsalu, ac fohsak lun Infahlfal in Aruruma pa inge, ac LEUM GOD Fulat ac Kulana El supwama ma inge nu facsr. Pot ke siti sesr fokfoki nu infohk uh, ac pusren mwet su tung in suk kasru lohngyuk oe inmasrlon eol uh me.
For there is a day of tumult, treading down, and confusion for the Lord Yahweh of hosts, in the Valley of Vision, a breaking down of the walls, and people crying out to the mountains.
6 Mwet mweun lun facl Elam elos utuk mwe pisr ac kasrusr tuku fin horse. Mwet mweun lun acn Kir elos akoela tari mwe loang lalos.
Elam takes up the quiver, with chariots of men and horsemen, and Kir lays the shield bare.
7 Infahlfal wolana lun Judah nwanala ke chariot; mwet kasrusr fin horse elos tu likin mutunpot lun Jerusalem.
It will come about that your choicest valleys will be full of chariots, and the horsemen will take their positions at the gate.
8 Siti nukewa loangeyen acn Judah fukulyuki. Pacl se ma ingan sikyak ah, kowos tuh use kufwen mwe mweun liki acn ma oan we ah.
He took away the protection of Judah; and you looked in that day to the weapons in the Palace of the Forest.
9 Kowos tuni pot lun Jerusalem in liye acn ma enenu in ononla, ac kowos karinganang kof ke lulu se ten ah.
You saw the breaches of the city of David, that they were many, and you collected the water of the lower pool.
10 Kowos oakla lohm in acn Jerusalem, ac ikruiya kutu, na eis eot kac in sang akkeye pot uh.
You counted the houses of Jerusalem, and you tore down the houses to fortify the wall.
11 Kowos tuh musai sie mwe neinyuk kof na lulap in siti uh, in nwanak kof ma sororma liki lulu in kof matu. Tusruktu kowos tiana lohang nu sin God su lumahla ma inge nukewa ke pacl loes somla, ac su oru in sikyak.
You made a reservoir between the two walls for the water of the old pool. But you did not consider the city's maker, who had planned it long ago.
12 LEUM GOD Fulat ac Kulana El tuh pangon kowos in tung ac mwemelil, in mangsrasrala ac nokomang nuknuk yohk eoa.
The Lord Yahweh of hosts called on that day for weeping, for mourning, for shaved heads, and the wearing of sackcloth.
13 Kowos tiana oru ma inge a kowos israsr ac orek kufwa. Kowos uniya sheep ac cow in kang, ac kowos numla wain. Kowos fahk, “Kut in mongo ac nimnim, pilani lutu kut ac misa.”
But look, instead, celebration and gladness, killing cattle and slaughtering sheep, eating meat and drinking wine; let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we will die.
14 LEUM GOD Fulat ac Kulana El sifacna kaskas nu sik ac fahk, “Ma koluk se inge ac tiana nunak munas nu selos ke lusenna moul lalos. Nga, LEUM GOD Fulat ac Kulana, pa fahk ma inge.”
This was revealed in my ears by Yahweh of hosts: “Surely this iniquity will not be forgiven you, even when you die,” says the Lord Yahweh of hosts.
15 LEUM GOD Fulat ac Kulana El fahk nu sik nga in som nu yorol Shebna, mwet se ma liyaung inkul fulat sin tokosra, ac fahk nu sel,
The Lord Yahweh of hosts, says this, “Go to this administrator, to Shebna, who is over the house, and say,
16 “Mea kom oru ingan? Su lela nu sum in sifacna taflela kulyuk se lom in eot pe eol uh?
'What are you doing here and who gave you permission to cut out a tomb for yourself, hewing out a grave on the heights and carving out a resting place in the rock?'”
17 Sahp yohk sripom, tusruktu LEUM GOD El ac srukkomyak ac tolkomla.
See, Yahweh is about to throw you, a mighty man, about to throw you down; he will grasp you tightly.
18 El ac srukkomyak oana sie ball ac siskomla nu in sie facl lulap. Kom ac misa we sisken chariot ma kom arulana filangkin. Kom sie mwe mwekin nu sin mwet in lohm sin mwet kacto lom.
He will surely wind you round and round, and toss you like a ball into a vast country. There you will die, and there your glorious chariots will be; you will be the shame of your master's house!
19 LEUM GOD El ac siskomla liki orekma fulat lom, ac eisla wal fulat lom.”
“I will thrust you from your office and from your station. You will be pulled down.
20 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Shebna, “Ke pacl ma ingan ac sikyak, nga ac sapla nu sin mwet kulansap luk, Eliakim wen natul Hilkiah.
It will come about on that day that I will call my servant Eliakim son of Hilkiah.
21 Nga fah nokmulang ke nuknuk oa ac mwe lohl lun leum, ac sang wal ac ku nukewa lom nu sel. El ac fah oana sie papa nu sin mwet Jerusalem ac mwet Judah.
I will clothe him with your tunic and put on him your sash, and I will transfer your authority into his hand. He will be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem and to the house of Judah.
22 Nga fah sang ku nukewa nu sel yal tokosra, su fwilin tulik natul David. Key nu ke acn fulat nukewa fah oan sel. Ma nukewa el ikasla wangin mwet fah kaliya, ac ma nukewa el kaliya wangin sie fah ikasla.
I will place the key of the house of David on his shoulder; he will open, and none will shut; he will shut, and none will open.
23 Nga fah kaskilya in arulana ku, oana soko kwi osra sruokyen lohm nuknuk, na ke sripal sou lal nufon ac fah sunakinyuk.
I will fasten him, a peg in a secure place, and he will become a seat of glory for his father's house.
24 “Tusruktu sou lal ac mwet ma el karingin ac fah mwe elya nu sel. Elos ac sripsripyak kacl oana tup ac pol sripsrip ke osra in sripsrip!
They will hang on him all the glory of his father's house, the offspring and descendants, every small container from the cups to all the jugs.
25 Pacl se ma inge ac sikyak, osra in sripsrip soko ah ac tufwacla ac putatla. Na ac tufah pa ingan saflaiyen ma nukewa ma sripsrip kac.” LEUM GOD pa fahk ma inge.
On that day—this is the declaration of Yahweh of hosts—the peg driven in a firm place will give way, break off, and fall, and the weight that was on it will be cut off—for Yahweh has spoken.
