Isaiah 5
1 Porongo ke nga ac yuk on soko inge, On soko lun kawuk luk ac ima in grape lal: Oasr ima in grape se lun kawuk luk Fin soko inging wo fohk we.
Let me sing now a song respecting my friend, A song respecting my friend touching his vineyard. My friend had a vineyard On a very fruitful hill;
2 El pukanak fohk uh ac sisla eot kac; El yukwiya oa in grape na wowo. El musaela sie nien soan, Pukanak sie luf mwe fut grape loac. El soano in mwesrla grape uh, Tusruktu grape nukewa mukol.
He digged it, and cleared it of stones, And planted it with the choicest vine, And built a tower in the midst of it, And hewed out a wine-press therein; Then he looked that it should bring forth its grapes, But it brought forth sour grapes.
3 Na kawuk luk el fahk, “Kowos mwet su muta in Jerusalem ac Judah, kowos in nununku inmasrlok ac ima in grape luk.
And now, O inhabitants of Jerusalem, and men of Judah, Judge ye between me and my vineyard!
4 Mea, oasr pac ma enenu in orek ma nga tia orala? Na efu ku fokla tuh grape mukol, ac tia grape wowo ma nga finsrak nu kac?
What could have been done for my vineyard That I have not done for it? Why, then, when I looked that it should bring forth its grapes, Brought it forth sour grapes?
5 “Pa inge ma nga ac oru nu ke ima se luk inge: nga ac kunausla kalkal kac ac rakinya pot uh, tuh kosro lemnak uh in ku in utyak, kangla ac lolongya.
But come now, and I will tell you What I mean to do with my vineyard. I will take away its hedge, and it shall be eaten up; I will break down its wall, and it shall be trodden down!
6 Nga ac fuhlela in kupoi ke mah. Nga ac tia kifwi sroa ku imon infohk we; ac nga ac fuhlela kokul ac pulah in kupoiya. Nga ac sapkin pac nu ke pukunyeng uh in tia fuhlela af.”
And I will make it a waste; It shall not be pruned, nor digged, But shall grow up into thorns and briers; I will also command the clouds That they shed no rain upon it.
7 Israel pa ima lun LEUM GOD Kulana; Mwet Judah pa sak ma El yukwiya. El tupan elos in oru ma wo, A elos orek akmas. El tupan elos in oru ma suwohs, A el lohng psren mwet akkeokyeyuk ke elos wowoyak in suk nununku suwohs.
The vineyard of Jehovah of hosts is the house of Israel, And the men of Judah the plant of his delight. He looked for justice, and behold, bloodshed! For righteousness, and behold, outcry!
8 We nu suwos! Pusla lohm ac ima kowos eisla in weang ma oasr yuruwos tari. Ac tia paht ac fah wanginla acn nu sin kutena mwet i n muta we, na kowos ac fah mukela muta in facl sac.
Woe to them that join house to house, That add field to field, Till there is no place left, And they dwell alone in the land.
9 Nga lohng LEUM GOD Kulana El fahk, “Lohm lulap wolana inge nukewa ac fah pisala ac oan musalla.
To mine ear hath Jehovah of hosts revealed it: Surely many houses shall become a desolation, The great and the fair ones, without an inhabitant.
10 Ima in grape ma kap ke acre limekosr ac fah orala gallon na limekosr ke wain. Bushel singoul ke fita uh ac fah orala bushel sefanna ke wheat,”
Yea, ten acres of vineyard shall yield a single bath of wine, And a homer of seed shall produce but an ephah.
11 We nu suwos! Kowos toang tukakek ke lotutang na mutawauk nimnim, ac ke ekela kowos nimnim paht ac arulana sruhila.
Woe to them that rise early in the morning to follow strong drink, —Who sit late in the night that wine may inflame them!
12 Oasr harp ac flute ac tambourine, oayapa wain ke kufwa lowos. Tusruktu kowos tia nunku ke LEUM GOD, ac kowos tia kalem ke ma El oru.
And the lyre and the harp, the tabret and the pipe, and wine, are at their feasts, But they regard not the work of Jehovah, Nor attend to the operation of his hands.
13 Ouinge kowos ac fah utukla nu in sruoh. Mwet kol lowos ac fah misa ke masrinsral, ac mwet ngia ac fah misa ke malu.
Therefore shall my people be led captive, when they think not of it; Their honorable men shall be famished with hunger, And their rich men parched with thirst.
14 Facl sin mwet misa uh mangelik in kangulosla. el ac ukumya mwet leum lun Jerusalem wi un mwet pilasr puspis ma arulana wohwon. (Sheol h7585)
Therefore doth the under-world enlarge its greedy throat, And stretch open its mouth without measure, And down go her nobility and her wealth, Her busy throng, and all that was joyful within her. (Sheol h7585)
15 Mwet nukewa ac fah mwekinla, ac elos nukewa su inse fulat ac fah akpusiselyeyuk.
The mean man shall be bowed down, And the great man shall be brought low, And the eyes of the haughty shall be humbled;
16 Tusruktu LEUM GOD Kulana El akkalemye fulatlana lal ke orekma suwoswos lal, ac El fahkak mutal lal ke El nununku mwet lal.
Jehovah of hosts shall be exalted through judgment; Yea, God, the Holy One, shall be sanctified through righteousness.
17 In acn musalla in siti uh, sheep fusr fah mongo mah, ac nani fusr fah konauk acn in mongla.
Then shall the lambs feed, as in their own pasture, And the deserted fields of the rich shall strangers consume.
18 We nu suwos! Kowos tia ku in kaingla liki sucl in kikiap ma kaprikowosi, pwanang kowos amakin ma koluk lowos yen nukewa.
Woe to them that draw calamity with cords of wickedness, And punishment as with wagon-traces, —
19 Kowos fahk, “Lela LEUM GOD Elan aksaye oru ma El fahk mu El ac oru, kut in tari liye. Lela God mutal lun Israel in oru ako lal; tuh kut in ku in kalem ke nunak lal.”
Who say, Let him make speed, let him hasten his work that we may see it! Let the purpose of the Holy One of Israel draw near and be fulfilled, that we may know it!
20 We nu suwos! Kowos pangon ma koluk uh wo, ac pangon ma wo uh koluk. Kowos ekulla lohsr uh nu ke kalem, ac kalem nu ke lohsr. Kowos oru ma mukol in emwem, ac ma emwem in mukol.
Woe to them that call evil good, and good evil, That put darkness for light, and light for darkness, That put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
21 We nu suwos! Kowos nunku mu kowos lalmwetmet ac arulana sumat.
Woe to them that are wise in their own eyes, And prudent in their own conceit!
22 We nu suwos! Kowos su ku ke nim wain! Kowos pulaik ac wangin sangeng lowos ke pacl karyak mwe nimnim!
Woe to them that are valiant to drink wine, And men of might to mingle strong drink!
23 Tusruktu ke sripen mwe eyeinse kowos aksukosokyela mwet oasr mwata, ac kowos tia lela nu sin mwet wangin mwata in eis nununku suwohs
That clear the guilty for a reward, And take away from the righteous his right!
24 Ke ma inge, oana ke loa ac mah pao uh ac firiryak in e uh, okah keiwos ac kulawi, ac ros farengla lowos ac fah uli ac sohkla, mweyen kowos pilesru ma LEUM GOD Kulana, God mutal lun Israel, El luti nu sesr.
Therefore, as fire devours stubble, And as the withered grass sinks into the flame, So their root shall become rottenness, And their blossom shall fly up like dust. For they have despised the law of Jehovah of hosts, And contemned the word of the Holy One of Israel.
25 LEUM GOD El kasrkusrak sin mwet lal, ac El asroela paol in kalyaelos. Eol uh ac fah kusrusryak, ac monin mwet misa ac fah oanna inkanek uh oana kutkut. Nwe ouinge, mulat lun LEUM GOD soenna safla, a paol ac srakna asroeyukla in oru kaiyuk lal.
Therefore is the anger of Jehovah kindled against his people; He stretcheth forth his hand against them, and smiteth them, so that the mountains tremble, And their carcasses are as dung in the midst of the streets; For all this his anger is not turned away, But his hand is stretched out still.
26 LEUM GOD El kolak sie akul in pangon sie mutunfacl yen loessula. El oselos in tuku liki saflaiyen faclu. Ac liye, elos arulana sa in tuku!
He lifteth up a banner for the nations afar off, He whistleth for them from the ends of the earth, And behold, they haste, and come swiftly.
27 Wangin selos totola, wangin selos tukulkul, elos tiana mwetkeli ku motul. Pel lalos tiana foroti, mwe kapir fahluk lalos tiana wotelik.
None among them is weary, and none stumbleth; None slumbereth nor sleepeth; The girdle of their loins is not loosed, Nor the latchet of their shoes broken.
28 Sukan pisr natulos kosroh, ac mwe pisr natulos akola in pisrikyuk. Falken horse natulos keke oana eot, ac wheel in chariot natulos for oana eng fohru.
Their arrows are sharp, And all their bows bent; The hoofs of their horses are like flint, And their wheels like a whirlwind.
29 Mwet mweun lalos ngutngut oana lion ma sruokya ma nalos ac usla nu yen wangin ma ac ku in eisla selos.
Their roaring is like the roaring of the lion; They roar like young lions; They roar, and seize the prey; They bear it away, and none can rescue it.
30 Ke len sac ac tuku, pusraclos ac fah ngirngir fin acn Israel oana pusren noa meoa. Liyewin facl se inge! Lohsr ac fosrnga mukena! Pukunyeng uh kosrala kalem.
Yea, in that day shall they roar against them like the roaring of the sea; And if one look to the land, behold darkness and sorrow, And the light is darkened by its clouds.
