Isaiah 34

1 Fahsru, mwet in mutunfacl nukewa! Tukeni nu sie ac porongo. Lelu faclu nufon ac mwet nukewa su muta fac in fahsru ac lohng.

Come near, you nations, to hear, And you peoples, give attention, The earth and its fullness hear, The world, and all its productions.

2 LEUM GOD El arulana kasrkusrak sin mutanfahl nukewa ac sin un mwet mweun lalos nukewa. El wotela mu elos ac anwuki.

For to YHWH [is] wrath against all the nations, And fury against all their host, He has devoted them to destruction, He has given them to slaughter.

3 Monin mwet misa lalos ac tia pukpuki, a ac oan nwe kulawi ac kolukla fohlo, ac eol uh ac fah srusrala ke srah.

And their wounded are cast out, And their carcasses cause their stench to ascend, And mountains have been melted from their blood.

4 Faht, malem, ac itu fah kofelik. Yen engyeng uh fah wanginla oana sie book limlim ma limlimweni, ac itu uh fah putat oana sra ma putat liki oa in grape ku sak fig.

And all the host of the heavens have been consumed, And the heavens have been rolled together as a scroll, And all their hosts fade, As the fading of a leaf of a vine, And as the fading one of a fig tree.

5 LEUM GOD El akoela cutlass natul inkusrao, na inge ac fah sringil mwet Edom, mwet ma El akoo in kunauselosla.

For My sword was soaked in the heavens, Behold, it comes down on Edom, On the people of My curse for judgment.

6 Cutlass natul uh ac fah nukla ke srah ac kiris kaclos, oana srah ac kiris ke sheep fusr ac nani ma kisakinyukla. LEUM GOD El ac fah oru mwe kisa se inge in siti lun Bozrah; El ac fah oru anwuk lulap se inge in acn Edom.

A sword [is] to YHWH—it has been full of blood, It has been made fat with fatness, With blood of lambs and male goats. With fat of kidneys of rams, For to YHWH [is] a sacrifice in Bozrah, And a great slaughter in the land of Edom.

7 Mwet uh ac ikor oana cow mukul lemnak ac cow mukul fusr, ac faclu ac fah srusrala ke srah ac afyufla ke kiris.

And reems have come down with them, And bullocks with bulls, And their land has been soaked from blood, And their dust is made fat from fatness.

8 Pa inge pacl se ma LEUM GOD El ac molela Zion ac kutangla mwet lokoalok lal.

(For a day of vengeance [is] to YHWH, A year of recompenses for Zion’s strife),

9 Infacl in acn Edom ac fah ekla nu ke koltah, ac fohk we fah ekla nu ke sulfur. Facl sac nufon fah firir oana koltah.

And her streams have been turned to pitch, And her dust to brimstone, And her land has become burning pitch.

10 Ac fah firir ke len ac fong, ac fosr kac fah fofosr nwe tok. Acn we ac fah oanna wangin sripa ke fwil nu ke fwil, ac wangin mwet fah sifil fahsr sasla we.

She is not quenched by night and by day, Her smoke goes up for all time, She is desolate from generation to generation, Forever and ever, none is passing into her.

11 Owl ac raven fah nununku facl sac. LEUM GOD El ac fah oru tuh in sifilpa sie acn talap wangin sripa, oana ke pacl meet liki orekla faclu.

And pelican and hedgehog possess her, And owl and raven dwell in her, And He has stretched out over her A line of vacancy, and stones of emptiness.

12 Ac fah wangin tokosra in leumi facl sac, ac mwet kol nukewa ac fah wanginla.

They call her nobles [to] the kingdom, But there are none there, And all her princes are at an end.

13 Kokul ac mah oasr otoh kac fah kapak ke inkul sin tokosra nukewa ac ke siti kalkalyak nukewa, na kosro jackal ac oayapa owl fah muta we.

And thorns have gone up her palaces, Nettle and bramble [are] in her fortresses, And it has been a habitation of dragons, A court for daughters of an ostrich.

14 Kosro lemnak fah forfor we, ac inut we fah apangpangi. Ma sulallal lulap lun fong fah tuku nu we ac sukok acn in mongla.

And desert-dwellers have met with howlers, And the goat calls for its companion, Surely the night-owl has rested there, And has found a place of rest for herself.

15 Owl ac fah orek ahng lalos, atrola, sawulla ma natulos ac liyalosyang we. Won vulture lulap fah tukeni we, sie tukun sie.

The owl has made her nest there, Indeed, she lays, and has hatched, And has gathered under her shadow, Surely vultures have been gathered there, Each with its companion.

16 Suk in book lun LEUM GOD ke ma moul nukewa ma orekla, ac riti ma fahk kac. Wangin soko sin ma orekla uh fah tia wi — ac fah oasr ma mukul ac ma mutan ke kais sie ma orekla inge. LEUM GOD El sapkin in ouinge; El ac fah sifacna orani ma inge.

Seek out of the scroll of YHWH, and read, One of these has not been lacking, None has missed its companion, For My mouth—it has commanded, And His Spirit—He has gathered them.

17 LEUM GOD pa ac kitalik acn uh inmasrlolos, ac sang ip lun kais sie selos. Elos fah muta in facl sac fwil nu ke fwil, ac acn we fah ma lalos ma pahtpat.

And He has cast a lot for them, And His hand has apportioned [it] to them by line, They possess it for all time, They dwell in it from generation to generation!
