Isaiah 45
1 LEUM GOD El sulella Cyrus elan tokosra. El srisrngilya in kutangla mutunfacl pus; El supwalla in eisla wal in tokosra lukelos. LEUM GOD El ac ikasla mutunpot lun siti uh nu sel. Ac El fahk nu sel Cyrus,
Thus, saith Yahweh, to his Anointed, to Cyrus—Whose right hand I have firmly grasped To subdue before him, nations, And the loins of kings, will I ungird, —To open, before him, the two-leaved doors, And, the gates, shall not be shut:
2 “Nga sifacna fah akoela inkanek lom, Ac akfwelyela eol uh ac inging uh. Nga fah fukulya mutunpot bronze Ac koteya osra ma sang laki.
I, before thee, will go, And the hills, will I level—The doors of bronze, will I break in pieces, And the bars of iron, will I cut asunder;
3 Nga fah sot nu sum wek saok ma oan in acn lohsr ac lukma; Na kom fah etu lah nga pa LEUM GOD Ac lah God lun Israel El pangon kom ke inem.
Then will I give thee The treasures of darkness, Even the hoards of hidden places, —That thou mayest get to know That I—Yahweh, who am calling thee by thy name, am the God of Israel.
4 Nga srisrngikomi in kasrel Israel, mwet kulansap luk, Mutanfahl se su nga sulela. Nga ac fah sot nu sum sunak lulap Kom finne tia eteyu.
For the sake of my servant Jacob, Even Israel my chosen Therefore have I called unto thee by thy name, I give thee a title though thou hast not known me, —
5 “Nga LEUM GOD; wangin sie pac god sayuk. Nga fah sot nu sum ku ma kom enenu an Kom finne tia eteyu.
I, am Yahweh, and there is none else, Besides me, there is no God, —I gird thee, though thou hast not known me:
6 Nga oru ma inge tuh mwet nukewa faclu — Kutulap lac nwe roto — Fah etu lah nga LEUM GOD, Ac lah wangin pac sie god saya.
That men may get to know. From the rising of the sun And from the west. That there is none besides me, —I, am Yahweh, and there is none else:
7 Nga oralana kewa kalem ac lohsr; Ac nga use na kewa mwe insewowo ac mwe ongoiya. Nga, LEUM GOD, oru ma inge nukewa.
Forming light and creating darkness, Making prosperity, and creating misfortune, —I—Yahweh, who doeth all these.
8 Nga fah oru tuh suwoswos in putati inkusrao me oana af; Faclu ac fah ikakla in eis, Na ac fah farengla ke sukosok ac nununku suwohs. Nga, LEUM GOD, fah oru ma inge in sikyak.”
Let the drops fall ye heavens, from above, Yea, let, the skies, pour down righteousness, —Let the earth open and let them bear as their fruit—deliverance And let, justice, spring forth therewith, I—Yahweh, have created it.
9 Ya sie tup kle ku in akukuin nu sin mwet se ma oralla uh — Tup se ma oana tup nukewa saya uh? Ya kle uh ku in siyuk sin mwet orek tup se lah mea el oru uh? Ya tup sac ku in torkaskas mu mwet se oralla uh wangin etu lal?
Alas for him who contendeth with his Fashioner, —A potsherd, [should contend] with the potsherds of the ground! Shall it be said by the clay, unto him that is fashioning it, What wouldst thou make? Or, thy work say, of thee, He hath no hands?
10 Ya oasr mwet ku in fahk nu sin papa tumal ac nina kial, “Efu ku komtal oreyula ange?”
Alas, for one who saith to a father, What begettest thou? Or to a woman What dost thou bring forth?
11 LEUM GOD, God mutal lun Israel, El su lumahla pacl fahsru, El fahk: “Wangin suwohs lom in kusen siyuk sik ke tulik nutik, Ku in fahk nu sik ma nga in oru!
Thus, saith, Yahweh, The Holy One of Israel And his Fashioner, As to things to come, they have asked me, Concerning my sons and concerning the work of my hands, they would command me!
12 Nga pa orala faclu Ac orala mwet uh in muta fac. Ke ku luk, nga asroelik kusrao; Nga pa nununku faht, malem, ac itu uh.
I, made the earth, And man upon it, I created, —I—mine own hands, stretched out the heavens, And all their host, I commanded:
13 Nga sifacna pa purakulak Cyrus elan mukuila In akfahsrye pwapa luk, ac in aksuwosyela ma tafongla. Nga fah aksuwosyela inkanek nukewa el fahsr we. El ac sifilpa musai Jerusalem, siti luk, Ac aksukosokyela mwet luk su muta in sruoh. Wangin mwet molel ku sang molin eyeinse elan oru ma inge.” LEUM GOD Kulana pa fahk ma inge.
I, have roused him up in righteousness, And all his roads, will I level, —He, shall build my city, And my captives, shall he let go, Not for price, nor for bribe, Saith Yahweh of hosts.
14 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sin Israel, “Mwe kasrup lun Egypt ac Ethiopia ac fah ma lom, Ac mwet loeska in Seba ac fah mwet kohs lom. Elos ac fah kapir ke sein ac fahsr tukum. Elos ac fah pasrla nu sum ac sifacna fahk, ‘God El oasr yurum — El mukena God.
Thus, saith Yahweh—The produce of Egypt and the gain of Ethiopia, and the Sabeans, men of great stature, Unto thee, shall come over, And thine, shall they become, After thee, shall they journey, In chains, shall they come over, —And unto thee, shall they bow down Unto thee, shall they pray [saying], —Surely, in thee, is a GOD And there is none else—no, God!
15 God lun Israel, su molela mwet lal, El sie God su sifacna okanulla.
Surely, thou, art a GOD utterly hiding thyself, —O God of Israel, able to save!
16 Elos nukewa su orala ma sruloala fah mwekin; Elos nukewa ac fah akmwekinyeyuk.
They have turned pale and even been put to shame, all of them, —Together have they gone into disgrace, have the makers of images:
17 Tusruktu Israel el moliyukla sin LEUM GOD, Ac kutangla lal oan ma pahtpat; Mwet lal ac fah tiana akmwekinyeyuk.’”
Israel, hath been delivered by Yahweh, with an age-abiding deliverance, —Ye shall neither turn pale nor he put to shame, unto the ages of futurity,
18 LEUM GOD El orala kusrao — El na pa God! El lumahla ac orala faclu — El orala in okak ac kawil. El tia orala tuh in sie acn mwesis, A sie acn mwet uh ku in muta we. El pa fahk, “Nga pa LEUM GOD Ac wangin pac sie god sayuk.
For, Thus, saith Yahweh, Who created the heavens God himself! Who fashioned the earth—And made it Himself, established it, …Not a waste, created he it To be dwelt in, he fashioned it, …I, am Yahweh, and there is none else:
19 Nga tia kaskas in lukma, Ku okanla sripa luk. Nga tia sapkin mwet Israel In sukyu in sie acn mwesis. Nga pa LEUM GOD, ac nga fahk ma pwaye. Nga oru in kalem ma su suwohs.”
Not in secret, have I spoken In a place of the earth that is dark, —I have not said unto the seed of Jacob, In a waste, seek ye me, —I, am Yahweh, Speaking the thing that is right, Declaring the things that are just.
20 LEUM GOD El fahk, “Fahsreni nu sie, kowos nukewa su Kaingla liki kais sie mutunfacl suwos. Fahsru utyak nu ke pacl in nununku! Mwet su fahsr inkanek uh ac kolak ma sruloala kihl lalos, Ac pre nu sin god ma tia ku in molelosla — Mwet ingan wangin na pwaye etu lalos!
Assemble yourselves and come Draw near together, ye escaped of the nations, —They know not Who carry the wood of their carved image, And pray unto a GOD who cannot save.
21 Fahsru ac akkalemye sripa lowos ye mutun mwet nununku. Lela mwet su suk kasru in alolngoki sie sin sie. Su tuh palyeak in pacl somla ma ac sikyak uh? Ya tia nga, LEUM GOD, su molela mwet lal? Wangin god saya.
Tell ye—and bring near, Yea let them take counsel, together, —Who let this be known aforetime. In time past, declared it? Was it not, I—Yahweh? And there is none else that is God besides me, A GOD, righteous and ready to save, There is none, besides me!
22 “Mwet faclu nufon, Forma nu sik, tuh kowos in moliyukla. Nga mukena pa God — wangin pac sie saya.
Turn unto me—and be ye saved, all ye ends of the earth, —For, I, am GOD, and there is none else.
23 Wulela luk uh pwaye — Ac fah tiana ekla. Nga fulahk nu suwos ke Inek sifacna: Mwet nukewa fah tuku ac sikukmutunte ye mutuk, Ac wulela ku tuh elos ac pwayena nu sik.
By myself, have I sworn, Gone forth out of my mouth, is righteousness as a decree And shall not turn back, —That, unto myself, Shall bow every knee, Shall swear every tongue:
24 “Elos ac fah fahk lah suwoswos ac ku Koneyukyak yuruk mukena; A elos nukewa su srungayu fah arulana mwekin.
Only in Yahweh—for me, Hath one said, Is there righteousness and strength, Unto him, shall come and turn pale—All who have been incensed against him:
25 Nga, LEUM GOD, fah molela fwilin tulik natul Jacob nukewa, Ac elos fah kaksakinyu.
In Yahweh, shall be justified and shall boast themselves—All the seed of Israel.
