Jeremiah 15
1 Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik, “Moses ac Samuel finne tu inge in kwafe nu sik ke mwet uh, nga fah tiana pakomutalos. Sap elos in som liki ye mutuk.
Then the LORD said to me, “Though Moses and Samuel stood before me, yet my mind would not turn towards this people. Cast them out of my sight, and let them go out!
2 Ke elos siyuk sum lah elos ac som nu ya, fahkang nu selos lah nga fahk ouinge: “Kutu selos ac fah misa ke mas — Na pa ingan acn elos ac som nu we! Kutu selos ac fah misa ke mweun — Na pa ingan acn elos ac som nu we! Kutu selos fah misa ke masrinsral — Na pa ingan acn elos ac som nu we! Kutu selos ac fah utukla nu ke nien kapir — Na pa ingan acn elos ac som nu we!
It will happen when they ask you, ‘Where shall we go out?’ then you shall tell them, ‘The LORD says: “Such as are for death, to death; such as are for the sword, to the sword; such as are for the famine, to the famine; and such as are for captivity, to captivity.”’
3 Nga, LEUM GOD, sulela tari ma upa akosr inge in sikyak nu selos: elos fah anwuki ke mweun; kosro ngalngul fah amakunla manolos; won ac fah kangla ikwalos, ac kosro lemnak fah kangla ma lula kac.
“I will appoint over them four kinds,” says the LORD: “the sword to kill, the dogs to tear, the birds of the sky, and the animals of the earth, to devour and to destroy.
4 Nga fah oru mwet nukewa faclu in fwefela kaclos ke sripen ma koluk lulap Manasseh, wen natul Hezekiah, el oru in Jerusalem pacl se el tuh tokosra lun acn Judah.”
I will cause them to be tossed back and forth amongst all the kingdoms of the earth, because of Manasseh, the son of Hezekiah, king of Judah, for that which he did in Jerusalem.
5 LEUM GOD El fahk, “Mwet Jerusalem, su ac pakomutowos, Ac su ac tungi kowos? Su ac sisla pacl la in tui Ac siyuk lah kowos fuka?
For who will have pity on you, Jerusalem? Who will mourn you? Who will come to ask of your welfare?
6 Kowos sisyula; Kowos totulikla likiyu. Ke ma inge nga srukak pouk ac itungkowosi Mweyen nga totola in kutong kasrkusrak luk.
You have rejected me,” says the LORD. “You have gone backward. Therefore I have stretched out my hand against you and destroyed you. I am weary of showing compassion.
7 In siti nukewa in facl se inge Nga siskowosyak nu ke eng uh, oana ke kulun wheat uh sisiyak nu ke eng uh. Nga kunauskowosla, mwet luk. Nga uniya tulik nutuwos Mweyen kowos tiana tui liki ouiyen moul koluk lowos.
I have winnowed them with a fan in the gates of the land. I have bereaved them of children. I have destroyed my people. They didn’t return from their ways.
8 Puslana katinmas in facl suwos Liki puk wekof uh. Nga uniya mukul fusr nutuwos an ke pacl na elos sun kuiyalos, Ac oru nina kialos in keok. In kitin pacl na nga srunglulos Ke mwe akkeok ac mwe aksangeng.
Their widows are increased more than the sand of the seas. I have brought on them against the mother of the young men a destroyer at noonday. I have caused anguish and terrors to fall on her suddenly.
9 Nina se ma tulik itkosr natul misa El mulalla ac suk mongol. Kalem lun len uh yorol ekla lohsr. El mwekinla ac oela insial ke asor. Nga fah lela mwet lokoalok lowos in onelosla Su srak moul inmasrlowos. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
She who has borne seven languishes. She has given up the spirit. Her sun has gone down while it was yet day. She has been disappointed and confounded. I will deliver their residue to the sword before their enemies,” says the LORD.
10 Nga mwet na supwar se! Efu ku nina kiuk el osweyula nu faclu? Mwet nukewa in mutunfacl se inge amei ac akukuin yuruk. Nga tiana sang mani nu sin mwet ma ngisreyu, ac nga tia pac ngisre mani sin mwet. Ne ouinge elos nuna selngawiyu na.
Woe is me, my mother, that you have borne me, a man of strife, and a man of contention to the whole earth! I have not lent, neither have men lent to me; yet every one of them curses me.
11 LEUM GOD, lela selnga nukewa lalos uh in akpwayeiyuk nga fin tia kulansupwekom wo, ac nga fin tia kwafe sum ke mwet lokoalok luk in pacl elos sun ma upa ac ongoiya nu selos. (
The LORD said, “Most certainly I will strengthen you for good. Most certainly I will cause the enemy to make supplication to you in the time of evil and in the time of affliction.
12 Wangin mwet ku in koteya osra uh, yokna osra ma tuku epang me ma karyak ke bronze.)
Can one break iron, even iron from the north, and bronze?
13 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik, “Nga fah supwala mwet lokoalok in usla mwe kasrup ac ma saok lun mwet luk, in kaelos ke koluk lalos elos oru apunla acn selos.
I will give your substance and your treasures for a plunder without price, and that for all your sins, even in all your borders.
14 Nga ac oru elos in kulansupu mwet lokoalok lalos in sie facl elos tia etu kac, mweyen kasrkusrak luk oana e uh, su ac firir nwe tok.”
I will make them to pass with your enemies into a land which you don’t know; for a fire is kindled in my anger, which will burn on you.”
15 Na nga fahk, “LEUM GOD, kom etu. Esamyu ac kasreyu. Lela nga in foloksak nu selos su kalyeiyu. Nimet arulana mongfisrasr nu selos, pwanang elos in uniyuwi. Esam lah elos akkolukyeyu ke sripom.
LORD, you know. Remember me, visit me, and avenge me of my persecutors. You are patient, so don’t take me away. Know that for your sake I have suffered reproach.
16 Kom kaskas nu sik, ac nga porongo kas nukewa lom. LEUM GOD Kulana, nga ma lom, ac kas lom nwakla insiuk ke engan ac insewowo.
Your words were found, and I ate them. Your words were to me a joy and the rejoicing of my heart, for I am called by your name, LORD, God of Armies.
17 Nga tia wi sisla pacl luk in israsr ac pwar yurin mwet ngia. A nga mukena muta oana kom sapkin, ac sessesla ke kasrkusrak.
I didn’t sit in the assembly of those who make merry and rejoice. I sat alone because of your hand, for you have filled me with indignation.
18 Efu ku nga nuna keok na? Efu ku kinet keik uh koflana unweyukla in mahla? Yah kom ac aksupwaryeyu oana soko infacl srisrik ma oan nwe mihnla?”
Why is my pain perpetual, and my wound incurable, which refuses to be healed? Will you indeed be to me as a deceitful brook, like waters that fail?
19 Na LEUM GOD El topukyu ouinge: “Kom fin foloko, nga ac sifil eis kom ac kom ac fah sifilpa mwet kulansap luk. Kom fin tila fahk ma wangin sripa a kom fahkak ma yohk sripa, na kom ac fah sifilpa mwet palu luk. Kom in tia som nu yurin mwet uh — lela elos in tuku nu yurum.
Therefore the LORD says, “If you return, then I will bring you again, that you may stand before me; and if you take out the precious from the vile, you will be as my mouth. They will return to you, but you will not return to them.
20 Nga ac orekom in oana sie pot bronze kulana nu selos. Elos ac mweun lain kom, tusruktu elos fah tia kutangkomla. Nga fah wi kom in langoekom ac molikomla.
I will make you to this people a fortified bronze wall. They will fight against you, but they will not prevail against you; for I am with you to save you and to deliver you,” says the LORD.
21 Nga fah liyekomyang ac loangekom liki inpoun mwet koluk ac mwet sulallal. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
“I will deliver you out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeem you out of the hand of the terrible.”
