< Isaiah 54 >
1 Jerusalem, meet kom tuh oana sie mutan wangin tulik natu. A inge kom ku in on ac sasa ke engan, Mweyen ac fah pus tulik nutum Liki sie mutan su mukul tuma tiana som lukel.
Give praise, you who are barren and unable to conceive. Sing praise and make a joyful noise, you who have not given birth. For many are the children of the desolate, more so than of her who has a husband, says the Lord.
2 Akyokyelik lohm nuknuk sum an; Akloesyalik sucl kac, ac akkeyala kwi ma sruok sucl an!
Enlarge the place of your tent and extend the skins of your tabernacles, unsparingly. Lengthen your cords, and strengthen your stakes.
3 Kom fah kulelik masrol lom ke siska nukewa; Mwet lom ac fah sifil eis facl ma Mutunfacl saya muta fac in pacl inge. Siti ma wangin mwet we in pacl inge ac fah tingtingi ke mwet.
For you shall extend to the right and to the left. And your offspring shall inherit the nations, and you shall inhabit the desolate cities.
4 Nimet sangeng — kom ac fah tia sifilpa akmwekinyeyuk; Kom ac fah tia sifilpa akpusiselyeyuk. Ac fah mulkinyukla tafongla lom ke pacl lom payuk fusr, Ac oayapa supwar lom ke kom katinmas.
Do not be afraid! For you will not be confounded, and you will not blush. And you will not be put to shame, because you shall forget the confusion of your youth, and you shall no longer remember the disgrace of your widowhood.
5 El su orekomla El ac oana sie mukul tuma nu sum — LEUM GOD Kulana pa Inel. God mutal lun Israel fah molikomla — El pa leumi faclu nufon.
For the One who made you will rule over you. The Lord of hosts is his name. And your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel, will be called the God of all the earth.
6 Israel, kom oana sie mutan payuk fusr Su mukul tumal el sisella, ac arulana toasr insia. Tusruktu LEUM GOD El pangonkomme nu yorol ac fahk:
For the Lord has called you, like a woman forsaken and mourning in spirit, and like a wife rejected in her youth, said your God.
7 “Nga tuh siskomla ke kitin pacl, A ke pakoten lulap luk, nga fah sifil eiskom.
For a brief moment, I have forsaken you, and with great pities, I will gather you.
8 Nga tuh kasrkusrak ac ngetla liki kom ke kitin pacl, Tusruktu inge nga fah fahkak lungse kawil luk nu sum.” Pa inge ma LEUM GOD su molikomla El fahk.
In a moment of indignation, I have hidden my face from you, for a little while. But with everlasting mercy, I have taken pity on you, said your Redeemer, the Lord.
9 “In pacl lal Noah nga tuh wulela mu Fahlu ac tiana sifilpa musalla ke sronot. Inge nga wulela in tiana sifil kasrkusrak sum. Nga fah tia sifilpa mulat nu sum ku kai kom.
For me, it is just as in the days of Noah, to whom I swore that I would no longer bring in the waters of Noah over the earth. Thus have I sworn not to be angry with you, and not to rebuke you.
10 Eol uh ac inging uh ku in mokukla, A lungse luk nu sum fah tiana safla; Nga fah liyaung wuleang in misla luk nwe tok.” LEUM GOD su lungse kom El fahk ouinge.
For the mountains will be moved, and the hills will tremble. But my mercy will not depart from you, and the covenant of my peace will not be shaken, said the Lord, who has compassion on you.
11 LEUM GOD El fahk, “O Jerusalem, sie siti keok su musalla tukun paka se Ac wangin mwet in akwoye kom, Nga fah sifil musaeak pwelung lom ke eot saok.
O poor little ones, convulsed by the tempest, away from any consolation! Behold, I will set your stones in order, and I will lay your foundation with sapphires,
12 Nga fah musai tower lom ke eot ruby, Ac mutunpot sum ke eot saromrom oana e, Ac pot ma raunikomyak ke wek saok.
and I will make your ramparts out of jasper, and your gates out of sculpted stones, and all your borders out of desirable stones.
13 “Nga ac fah sifacna luti mwet lom, Ac oru tuh elos in kapkapak ac moul in misla.
All your children will be taught by the Lord. And great will be the peace of your children.
14 Suwoswos ac pwaye ac fah oru kom in ku. Kom ac fah tia pulakin mwe keok ac mwe aksangang.
And you will be founded in justice. Depart far from oppression, for you will not be afraid. And depart from terror, for it will not approach you.
15 Fin oasr kutena mwet mweuni kom, El oru ke tia ma nga sapkin. Ac fah kutangyukla kutena mwet su mweun lain kom.
Behold, a settler will arrive, who was not with me, a certain new arrival will be joined to you.
16 “Nga pa orala mwet orekma ke osra, Su tanak sie e ac orala kufwen mwe mweun. Nga pac pa orala mwet mweun, Su orekmakin kufwen mwe mweun in uniya mwet.
Behold, I created the smith who fans the coals of the fire and produces an object by his work, and I have created the slayer who destroys.
17 Tusruktu wangin kufwen mwe mweun ac fah kunauskomla. Ac fah oasr top lom nu selos nukewa su akkolukye kom. Nga fah loango mwet kulansap luk Ac oru tuh elos in kutangla.” LEUM GOD pa fahk ma inge.
No object which has been formed to use against you will succeed. And every tongue that resists you in judgment, you shall judge. This is the inheritance of the servants of the Lord, and this is their justice with me, says the Lord.
