Isaiah 33
1 We nu sin mwet lokoalok lasr! Elos pisrapasr ac kiapu mwet uh, finne wangin mwet pisre ma lalos ku kiapwelos. Tusruktu pacl in pusr ac kikiap lalos ac safla, ac elos sifacna ac fah kiapweyuk ac pisreyuk ma lalos.
Woe to thee, thou spoiler, who hast not been spoiled! Thou plunderer, who hast not been plundered! When thou hast ceased to spoil, thou shalt be spoiled; When thou hast finished plundering, they shall plunder thee.
2 LEUM GOD, pakoten nu sesr. Kut filiya finsrak lasr in kom. Karingin kut len nu ke len, ac molikutla in pacl ongoiya.
O Jehovah, have mercy upon us! in thee do we trust; Be thou our strength every morning, Our salvation in the time of trouble.
3 Pacl kom mweun kacsr uh, mutunfacl uh kaingla ke elos lohng kusen mweun.
At the voice of thy thunder the people flee; When thou dost arise, the nations are scattered.
4 Ma lalos nukewa ac fah orekeni ac utukla in ma wap, oana ke un locust uh kangla sroan ima nukewa.
Your spoil shall be gathered, as the locust gathereth; As the locust runneth, so shall they run upon it.
5 Fuka lupan fulatlana lun LEUM GOD! El pa nununku ma nukewa. El fah nwakla acn Jerusalem ke suwoswos ac pwaye,
Jehovah is exalted; Yea, he dwelleth on high; He filleth Zion with justice and righteousness.
6 ac oru tuh mutunfacl se inge in oakwuki ku. El karl ngin mwet lal pacl nukewa, ac sang lalmwetmet ac etauk nu selos. Ma saok se ma yohk emeet selos pa etu in sunakin LEUM GOD.
There shall be security in thy times; Wisdom and knowledge shall be thy store of prosperity, And the fear of Jehovah, this shall be thy treasure!
7 Mwet na pulaik elos sukok ka sru. Mwet tutafpo fulat su suk inka nek in misla elos tung mwemelil.
Behold, the mighty men cry without: The ambassadors of peace weep bitterly.
8 Inkanek lulap uh yokla mwe sensen we oru wangin mwet fufahsryesr fac. Oakwuk in insesela ma orekla inmasrlon mutunfacl uh musalla, ac wanginla pac akfulatyeyen mwet uh.
The highways are desolate; The traveller ceaseth; He breaketh the covenant; he despiseth the cities; Of men he maketh no account.
9 Acn uh oanna ke wangin, ac wangin mwet muta we. Insak in acn Lebanon masla, ac infahlfal Sharon ma wo fohk we uh mwesisla, ac sroan sak uh in acn Bashan ac fin Eol Carmel putatla.
The land mourneth and languisheth; Lebanon is put to shame, and withered away; Sharon is like a desert, And Bashan and Carmel are stripped of their leaves.
10 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sin mutunfacl puspis, “Inge, nga ac mukuila ac akkalemye kuiyuk.
Now will I arise, saith Jehovah, Now will I exalt myself, Now will I lift myself up.
11 Kowos oru pwapa lusrongten, ac ma nukewa kowos oru wangin sripa. Ngunik, su oana sie e, ac kunauskowosla.”
Ye shall conceive chaff, and bring forth stubble; Your own wrath is the fire which shall devour you.
12 Kowos ac mokutkuti oana eot ma isikyak in orek fasr — oana otonsak ma firirla nwe ke apatla.
The nations shall be burnt into lime; Like thorns cut down, they shall be consumed with fire.
13 Lela mwet nukewa yen apkuran ac yen loessula in lohng ma nga orala ac akilen ku luk.”
Hear, ye that are far off, what I have done; Mark, ye that are near, my power!
14 Mwet koluk in Zion elos rarrar ke sangeng. Elos fahk, “Nununku lun God oana sie e ma firir nwe tok. Ya oasr kutena sesr ku in painmoulla ke kain in e ouinge uh?”
The sinners in Zion are struck with dread; Terror hath seized upon the unrighteous: “Who among us can dwell in devouring fire? Who among us can dwell in everlasting flames?”
15 Kowos ku in moul kowos fin oru ma suwohs ac kaskas pwaye. Nik kowos orekmakin ku lowos in kiapu mwet sukasrup, ac nik kowos eis molin eyeinse. Nik kowos kupasryang nu selos su akoo in orek akmas ku in oru kutena ouiya koluk.
He that walketh in righteousness, And speaketh that which is right, That despiseth the gain of oppression, And shaketh his hands from bribery, That stoppeth his ears, so as not to hear of blood, And shutteth his eyes, so as not to behold iniquity.
16 Na kowos ac fah moulla. Kowos ac fah okak na, oana ke kowos in muta ke sie pot ku yen fulat. Ac fah oasr mwe mongo nowos ac kof nimowos.
He shall dwell on high; The strongholds of rocks shall be his defence; His bread shall be given him; His water shall not fail.
17 Kowos ac fah sifilpa liye sie tokosra in wolana lal su leumi sie facl na lulap.
Thine eyes shall see the king in his glory They shall survey a wide-extended land.
18 Kowos ac fah esamak sangeng lowos ke mwetsac su eisani takma, ac mwet kalngeyuk ma oakla tower ke siti lowos.
Thy heart shall meditate on the past terror: “Where now is the scribe? Where the weigher of tribute? Where he that numbered the towers?”
19 Kowos ac tia sifil liye mwetsac ma orek funmwet ac kaskaskin sie kas ma kowos tia ku in kalem kac.
Thou shalt see no more a fierce people, A people of a dark language, which thou couldst not hear, And of a barbarous tongue, which thou couldst not understand;
20 Ngetla liye acn Zion, siti se ma kut oru kufwa mutal lasr we. Liye acn Jerusalem! Sie acn misla su ac wo in muta we! Acn we ac fah oana sie lohm nuknuk ma tiana mokleyukla, su kwi kac uh tiana fifyak, ac sucl kac uh tia wi wotla.
Thou shalt see Zion, the city of our solemn feasts; Thine eyes shall behold Jerusalem, as a quiet habitation. A tent that shall never be moved, Whose stakes shall never be taken away, And whose cords shall never be broken.
21 LEUM GOD El fah akkalemye wolana lal nu sesr. Kut fah muta sisken infacl sralap ac sungan infacl srisrik. Tusruktu oak lulap okan mwet sulallal uh ac fah tiana kalkal we.
For there the glorious Jehovah will be to us Instead of rivers and broad streams, Which no oared galley shall pass, And no gallant ship go through.
22 Tuh LEUM GOD pa ac nununkekut. El tokosra lasr su ac leumi kut ac loangekutla.
For Jehovah is our judge; Jehovah is our lawgiver; Jehovah is our king; it is he that will save us.
23 Sucl fin oak ingan foroti — tia ku in sruokya koesu uh in okak, ku amakunak nes uh in elakelik. Kut ac sruokya mwe kasrup nukewa lun mwet lokoalok lasr ac kitalik. Ac fah yolyak nu sesr, pwanang finne mwet sukapas, ac oasr pac ip lalos.
Thy ropes hang loose; They cannot hold the mast-socket, Nor can they spread the sail. Then shall a great spoil be divided; Even the lame shall take the prey.
24 Wangin mwet in facl sesr ac fah fahk mu, “Nga mas.” Ma koluk lun mwet nukewa fah nunak munas nu selos.
No inhabitant shall say, I am sick; The people that dwell therein shall be forgiven their iniquity.
