< Isaiah 44 >
1 LEUM GOD El fahk, “Porongo inge, Israel, mwet kulansap luk — Mwet solla luk, fwilin tulik natul Jacob.
And therefore listen O Jacob servant my and Israel [whom] I have chosen it.
2 Nga LEUM GOD su orekomla; Nga nuna kasrekom oe ke kom isusla ah me. Nik kom sangeng; kom mwet kulansap luk, Mwet sulela luk su nga lungse.
Thus he says Yahweh [who] made you and [who] formed you from [the] womb he will help you may not you be afraid O servant my Jacob and Jeshurun [whom] I have chosen it.
3 “Nga fah sang kof nu sin acn malu Ac oru tuh infacl in soror ke acn pao. Nga fah okoaot ngunik ac mwe insewowo luk Nu fin fwilin tulik nutum.
For I will pour out water on thirsty [ground] and streams on dry ground I will pour out spirit my on offspring your and blessing my on descendants your.
4 Elos ac sa in kap oana mah ma aksroksrokyeyuk wo, Oana sak willow ma kap sisken infacl ma yohk kof soror we.
And they will spring up in between grass like poplars at watercourses of water.
5 “Mwet uh fah kais sie fahk, ‘Nga ma lun LEUM GOD.’ Elos fah tuku in weang mwet Israel. Kais sie fah simusla Inen LEUM GOD fin paol, Ac sifacna fahk mu el sie sin mwet lun God.”
This one he will say [belong] to Yahweh I and this one he will call out with [the] name of Jacob and this one he will write hand his [belongs] to Yahweh and with [the] name of Israel he will name.
6 LEUM GOD, su leumi ac karingin Israel, LEUM GOD Kulana, El fahk ouinge: “Nga pa oemeet, ac oayapa safla, ac nga God sefanna; Wangin sie pac god sayuk.
Thus he says Yahweh [the] king of Israel and redeemer its Yahweh of hosts I [am] first and I [am] last and except me there not [is] a god.
7 Ya oasr sie sayuk su ku in oru ma nga orala tari? Su ku in palyeak ma nukewa ma sikyak Oe ke mutawauk ah me na nwe ke safla lun faclu?
And who? [is] like me let him proclaim [it] and let him declare it and let him recount in order it to me from when established I a people of antiquity and [the] coming [things] and [the things] which they will come let them declare to them.
8 Mwet luk, nimet sangeng! Kowos etu lah oemeet me nu inge Nga fahkak tari ma nukewa ma ac sikyak, Ac kowos mwet loh luk. Mea, oasr pac god saya? Wangin! Wangin siefanna eot ku ma nga etu kac!”

9 Mwet nukewa su taflela ma sruloala uh elos mwet lusrongten, ac god ma elos akfulatye yohk uh wangin sripa. Elos su alu nu ke god inge elos mwet kun ac lalfon — ac elos ac fah akmwekinyeyuk.
