Isaiah 66
1 LEUM GOD El fahk, “Kusrao pa tron luk, ac faclu ma loangeyen niuk. Na lohm fuka kowos ac ku in musai nu sik, ac kain in acn fuka kowos ac oru nga in muta we?
Thus says the LORD, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: where is the house that you build to me? and where is the place of my rest?
2 Nga na pa orala faclu ac yen engyeng uh nufon! Nga insewowo selos su inse pusisel ac su auliyak, elos su sangeng sik ac akosyu.
For all those things has my hand made, and all those things have been, says the LORD: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembles at my word.
3 “Tusruktu mwet uh sulela in oru na lungse lalos sifacna. El su uniya soko cow mukul el oana mwet se su uniya sie mwet. El su kisakin soko sheep fusr el oana mwet se su koteya inkwawen soko kosro ngalngul. El su use sie mwe kisa wheat el oana mwet se su use srahn pig. El su orek mwe kisa keng el oana mwet se su pre nu ke sie ma sruloala. Elos insewowo in oru lumah na srungayuk ke alu uh.
He that kills an ox is as if he slew a man; he that sacrifices a lamb, as if he cut off a dog’s neck; he that offers an oblation, as if he offered swine’s blood; he that burns incense, as if he blessed an idol. Yes, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delights in their abominations.
4 Ke ma inge nga fah sulela pac in use mwe ongoiya lulap nu faclos — ma na elos arulana sangeng kac uh — mweyen ke nga pang nu selos elos tia topuk, ac ke nga kaskas elos tia lohng. Elos sulela in seakosyu ac in oru ma koluk.”
I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears on them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spoke, they did not hear: but they did evil before my eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not.
5 Porongo ma LEUM GOD El fahk inge, kowos su sangeng sel ac aksol: “Ke sripen kowos inse pwaye nu sik, oru kutu sin mwet lowos sifacna elos srungakowos ac tiana lohwot nu suwos. Elos aksruksrukye kowos ac fahk, ‘Lela LEUM GOD Elan akkalemye ku lal ac molikowosla, tuh kut in liye ke kowos ac enganak.’ Tusruktu elos sifacna ac fah mwekinla!
Hear the word of the LORD, you that tremble at his word; Your brothers that hated you, that cast you out for my name’s sake, said, Let the LORD be glorified: but he shall appear to your joy, and they shall be ashamed.
6 Kowos in porongo! Pusra lulap se kaskas in siti uh. Pusra se ma tuku liki Tempul uh pa pusren kaiyuk lun LEUM GOD nu sin mwet lokoalok lal!
A voice of noise from the city, a voice from the temple, a voice of the LORD that renders recompense to his enemies.
7 “Siti mutal sik el oana sie mutan su sa na oswela sie tulik meet liki na ngal in isus lal.
Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man child.
8 Ya nu oasr mwet liye ku lohng lumah ouinge? Ya oasr mutunfacl nu isusla ke len se na? Zion fah tia enenu in keok paht meet liki mutunfacl sacn isusla.
Who has heard such a thing? who has seen such things? Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day? or shall a nation be born at once? for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children.
9 Nimet nunku mu nga fah use mwet luk in sun pacl in isusla, a tia lela elos in isusla.” LEUM GOD pa fahk ma inge.
Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? says the LORD: shall I cause to bring forth, and shut the womb? said your God.
10 Kowos in wi Jerusalem enganak; Kowos nukewa su lungse siti se inge, enganak kacl! Kowos nukewa su asor kacl meet Kowos in welul engan.
Rejoice you with Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all you that love her: rejoice for joy with her, all you that mourn for her:
11 Kowos ac fah engankin mwe insewowo lal, Oana sie tulik su titi ke nina kial.
That you may suck, and be satisfied with the breasts of her consolations; that you may milk out, and be delighted with the abundance of her glory.
12 LEUM GOD El fahk, “Nga fah sot nu suwos misla ac insewowo kawil. Mwe kasrup lun mutunfacl puspis fah asrwot oana soko infacl ma tia ku in mihnla. Kowos ac fah oana sie tulik fusr ma katitiiyuk sin nina kial, kafisyukyak inpaol, ac oakoakiyuk ke lungse.
For thus says the LORD, Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river, and the glory of the Gentiles like a flowing stream: then shall you suck, you shall be borne on her sides, and be dandled on her knees.
13 Nga fah akwoye kowos in Jerusalem oana sie nina akwoye tulik natul.
As one whom his mother comforts, so will I comfort you; and you shall be comforted in Jerusalem.
14 Pacl se kowos liye ma inge, kowos ac fah engan, na ac fah oru kowos in fokoko ac ku in mano. Ouinge kowos fah etu lah, nga, LEUM GOD, kasrelos su akosyu, ac nga akkalemye kasrkusrak luk lain mwet lokoalok luk.”
And when you see this, your heart shall rejoice, and your bones shall flourish like an herb: and the hand of the LORD shall be known toward his servants, and his indignation toward his enemies.
15 LEUM GOD El ac tuku wi e. El ac kasrusr fin sie paka in kalyaelos su El kasrkusrak se.
For, behold, the LORD will come with fire, and with his chariots like a whirlwind, to render his anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames of fire.
16 El ac fah orekmakin cutlass ac e in kai mwet nukewa fin fahlu su oasr mwata — ac mwet puspis ac fah anwuki.
For by fire and by his sword will the LORD plead with all flesh: and the slain of the LORD shall be many.
17 LEUM GOD El fahk, “Pacl in safla uh apkuranme nu selos su aknasnasyalos nu ke alu pegan, su takla fahsr nu ke ima aol lalos, ac su mongo ikwen pig ac kisrik in pot ac mwe mongo saya ma srungayuk.
They that sanctify themselves, and purify themselves in the gardens behind one tree in the middle, eating swine’s flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse, shall be consumed together, says the LORD.
18 Nga etu nunak lalos ac orekma lalos. Nga ac tuku in eisani mwet in mutunfacl nukewa. Ke elos ac fahsreni, elos fah liye ma nga oru ke po ku luk,
For I know their works and their thoughts: it shall come, that I will gather all nations and tongues; and they shall come, and see my glory.
19 ac elos ac fah etu lah nga pa kalyaelos. “Tusruktu nga fah filiya kutu selos, ac supwalosla nu ke mutunfacl, ac nu yen loessula, ma soenna lohng pweng keik ku liye wolana luk ac kulana luk: nu Tarshish, nu Pul ac Lud, wi mwet pisr oalel lalos, ac nu Tubal ac Javan. Inmasrlon mutunfacl puspis inge, elos fah sulkakin fulatlana luk.
And I will set a sign among them, and I will send those that escape of them to the nations, to Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, that draw the bow, to Tubal, and Javan, to the isles afar off, that have not heard my fame, neither have seen my glory; and they shall declare my glory among the Gentiles.
20 Elos ac fah folokonma mwet wiowos nukewa liki mutunfacl puspis, oana sie mwe lung nu sik. Elos ac usalosme nu ke eol mutal sik in acn Jerusalem — fin horse, miul, ac camel, ac in chariot ac wagon — oana ke mwet Israel elos use mwe kisa wheat ke ahlu aknasnasyeyukla in orekmakinyuk in Tempul.
And they shall bring all your brothers for an offering to the LORD out of all nations on horses, and in chariots, and in litters, and on mules, and on swift beasts, to my holy mountain Jerusalem, said the LORD, as the children of Israel bring an offering in a clean vessel into the house of the LORD.
21 Nga fah eis kutu selos in oru orekma lun mwet tol ac mwet Levi.
And I will also take of them for priests and for Levites, says the LORD.
22 “Oana ke faclu sasu ac kusrao sasu fah oan nwe tok ke ku luk, ouinge fwilin tulik nutuwos ac inewos ac fah oan nwe tok.”
For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, says the LORD, so shall your seed and your name remain.
23 LEUM GOD El fahk, “Ke Kufwen Malem Sasu nukewa ac Sabbath nukewa, mwet in mutunfacl nukewa fah tuku ac alu nu sik inge in Jerusalem.
And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, says the LORD.
24 Ke elos mukuiyak in som, elos ac liye mano misa lun mwet su tuh lainyu. Wet ma kang manolos fah tiana misa, ac e se ma esukulos fah tiana kunla. Mwet nukewa ac fah arulana srunga liye mano misa inge.”
And they shall go forth, and look on the carcasses of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring to all flesh.
