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 that layest waste, and thou wast not laid waste; and dealest treacherously, and they dealt not treacherously with thee! when thou shalt cease to lay waste, thou shalt be wasted; and when thou shalt make an end of dealing treacherously, they shall deal treacherously with 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 LORD, be gracious to us; we have waited for thee: be thou their arm every morning, our salvation also in the time of trouble.
3 Pacl kom mweun kacsr uh, mutunfacl uh kaingla ke elos lohng kusen mweun.
At the noise of the tumult the people fled; at the lifting up of thyself the nations were scattered.
4 Ma lalos nukewa ac fah orekeni ac utukla in ma wap, oana ke un locust uh kangla sroan ima nukewa.
And your spoil shall be gathered like the gathering of the caterpiller: as the running to and fro of locusts shall he run upon them.
5 Fuka lupan fulatlana lun LEUM GOD! El pa nununku ma nukewa. El fah nwakla acn Jerusalem ke suwoswos ac pwaye,
The LORD is exalted; for he dwelleth on high: he hath filled Zion with judgment 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.
And wisdom and knowledge shall be the stability of thy times, and strength of salvation: the fear of the LORD is his treasure.
7 Mwet na pulaik elos sukok ka sru. Mwet tutafpo fulat su suk inka nek in misla elos tung mwemelil.
Behold, their valiant ones shall cry outside: the ambassadors of peace shall 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 lie waste, the wayfaring man ceaseth: he hath broken the covenant, he hath despised the cities, he regardeth no man.
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 earth mourneth and languisheth: Lebanon is ashamed and hewn down: Sharon is like a wilderness; and Bashan and Carmel shake off their fruits.
10 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sin mutunfacl puspis, “Inge, nga ac mukuila ac akkalemye kuiyuk.
Now will I rise, saith the LORD; now will I be exalted; now will I lift up myself.
11 Kowos oru pwapa lusrongten, ac ma nukewa kowos oru wangin sripa. Ngunik, su oana sie e, ac kunauskowosla.”
Ye shall conceive chaff, ye shall bring forth stubble: your breath, as fire, shall devour you.
12 Kowos ac mokutkuti oana eot ma isikyak in orek fasr — oana otonsak ma firirla nwe ke apatla.
And the people shall be as the burnings of lime: as thorns cut up shall they be burned in the fire.
13 Lela mwet nukewa yen apkuran ac yen loessula in lohng ma nga orala ac akilen ku luk.”
Ye that are far off, hear what I have done; and, ye that are near, acknowledge my might.
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 afraid; fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?
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 righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that keepeth his hands from accepting of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from seeing evil;
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: his place of defence shall be the strong holds of rocks: bread shall be given him; his waters shall be sure.
17 Kowos ac fah sifilpa liye sie tokosra in wolana lal su leumi sie facl na lulap.
Thy eyes shall see the king in his beauty: they shall behold the land that is very far off.
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 terror. Where is the scribe? where is the receiver? where is he that counted 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 not see a fierce people, a people of deeper speech than thou canst perceive; of a stammering tongue, that thou canst 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.
Look upon Zion, the city of our solemnities: thy eyes shall see Jerusalem a quiet habitation, a tabernacle that shall not be taken down; not one of its stakes shall ever be removed, neither shall any of its cords 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.
But there the glorious LORD will be to us a place of broad rivers and streams; in which shall go no galley with oars, neither shall gallant ship pass through it.
22 Tuh LEUM GOD pa ac nununkekut. El tokosra lasr su ac leumi kut ac loangekutla.
For the LORD is our judge, the LORD is our lawgiver, the LORD is our king; he 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 tacklings are loosed; they could not well strengthen their mast, they could not spread the sail: then is the prey of a great spoil divided; the lame 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.
And the inhabitants shall not say, I am sick: the people that dwell in it shall be forgiven their iniquity.
