Jeremiah 25
1 In yac se akakosr ma Jehoiakim, wen natul Josiah, el tokosra lun Judah, nga eis kas sin LEUM GOD ke mwet Judah. (Ma se inge ma ke yac se oemeet ma Nebuchadnezzar el tuh tokosra lun Babylonia.)
The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the people of Judah, in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, the king of Judah (that is, the first year of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon),
2 Nga fahk nu sin mwet Judah ac mwet Jerusalem nukewa,
which Jeremiah the prophet spoke unto all the people of Judah and to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, saying:
3 “Ke lusen yac longoul tolu, mutawauk ke yac aktolngoul ma Josiah, wen natul Amon, el tuh tokosra lun Judah, nwe misenge, LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sik, ac nga tia tui in fahk ma El fahk uh nu suwos, a kowos tiana porongo.
From the thirteenth year of Josiah the son of Amon, the king of Judah, even unto this day, these three and twenty years, the word of Jehovah hath come unto me, and I have spoken unto you, rising early and speaking; but ye have not hearkened.
4 LEUM GOD El finne kalwenina in supu mwet kulansap lal mwet palu, a kowos tiana lohngolos, ku lohang nu selos.
And Jehovah hath sent unto you all his servants the prophets, rising early and sending; but ye have not hearkened, nor inclined your ear to hear,
5 Elos fahk nu suwos in forla liki inkanek koluk kowos moulkin, ac liki orekma koluk kowos oru tuh kowos fah ku in mutana fin facl se su LEUM GOD El sot nu suwos ac mwet matu lowos tuh in ma lowos nwe tok.
when they said, Turn again now every one from his evil way, and from the wickedness of your doings, and dwell in the land that Jehovah hath given unto you and to your fathers from of old even for ever.
6 Elos fahkot kowos in tia alu ac kulansupu god ngia, ac in tia akkasrkusrakye LEUM GOD ke kowos alyalu nu sin ma sruloala ma kowos orala. Kowos funu akos LEUM GOD in pacl sac me, El lukun tia akkeokye kowos.
And go not after other gods, to serve them and to worship them; and provoke me not to anger with the work of your hands; and I will do you no hurt.
7 Na LEUM GOD El sifacna fahk lah kowos tia lungse lohngol, ac kowos akkasrkusrakyal ke ma sruloala lowos. Ke ma inge kowos sifacna use kalya lal nu fowos.
But ye have not hearkened unto me, saith Jehovah; that ye might provoke me to anger with the work of your hands, to your own hurt.
8 “Ouinge LEUM GOD Kulana El fahk, ‘Ke sripen kowos tia porongeyu,
Therefore thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Because ye have not listened to my words,
9 nga fah sapla nu sin mwet nukewa in acn epang, ac nu sin mwet kulansap luk, Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar lun Babylonia. Nga fah usalosme in mweun lain mwet in acn Judah wi mutunfacl atulani lalos, ac fuhlelosla in oan musalla nwe tok — sie mwe lut ac aksangeng in liyeyuk. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.
behold, I will send and take all the families of the north, saith Jehovah, and [I will send] to Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will bring them against this land, and against the inhabitants thereof, and against all these nations round about; and I will utterly destroy them, and make them an astonishment, and a hissing, and perpetual wastes.
10 Nga ac sikulya sasa in engan ac insewowo, ac pusren engan ke kufwen marut. Ac fah wangin oil nu ke lam lalos, ac wangin pac wheat.
And I will cause to perish from them the voice of mirth and the voice of joy, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the sound of the millstones and the light of the lamp.
11 Facl se inge nufon ac fah musallana — sie mwe lut ac mwe aksangeng. Ac mutunfacl atulani uh ac fah kulansupu tokosra lun Babylonia ke yac itngoul.
And this whole land shall become a waste, an astonishment; and these nations shall serve the king of Babylon seventy years.
12 Tukun pacl se inge nga fah kai acn Babylonia ac tokosra lal ke sripen orekma koluk lalos. Nga fah kunausla mutunfacl sac, ac filiya in oan musalla nwe tok.
And it shall come to pass, when seventy years are accomplished, [that] I will visit on the king of Babylon and on that nation, saith Jehovah, their iniquity, and on the land of the Chaldeans, and I will make it perpetual desolations.
13 Nga fah kai Babylonia ke mwe ongoiya nukewa ma nga tuh fahk nu sel Jeremiah mu nga ac oru nu sin mutunfacl inge kewa — aok, mwe ongoiya nukewa ma simla in book se inge.
And I will bring upon that land all my words which I have pronounced against it, all that is written in this book, which Jeremiah hath prophesied against all the nations.
14 Nga ac folokin nu sin mwet Babylonia fal nu ke ma elos oru, na elos ac fah mwet kohs nu sin tokosra na fulat in mutunfacl puspis.’”
For many nations and great kings shall serve themselves of them also; and I will recompense them according to their deeds, and according to the work of their hands.
15 LEUM GOD lun Israel El fahk nu sik, “Cup in wain se pa inge, sessesla ke kasrkusrak luk. Usla nu sin mutunfacl nukewa su nga ac supwekom nu we, ac oru elos in nim kac.
For thus hath Jehovah the God of Israel said unto me: Take the cup of the wine of this fury at my hand, and cause all the nations to whom I send thee to drink it.
16 Pacl se elos ac nimya, elos ac fahsr ikorkor ac wella ke sripen mweun nga supu in lainulos.”
And they shall drink, and reel to and fro, and be mad, because of the sword that I will send among them.
17 Ouinge nga eisla cup se liki poun LEUM GOD, ac sang nu sin mutunfacl nukewa ma LEUM GOD El supweyu nu we, ac oru tuh elos in nim kac.
And I took the cup at Jehovah's hand, and made all the nations to drink, to whom Jehovah had sent me:
18 Jerusalem ac siti nukewa lun Judah, weang tokosra ac mwet kol we, elos nim kac, na in pacl sac me nwe misenge acn inge ekla acn mwesisla — sie mwe lut ac mwe aksangeng, ac mwet uh orekmakin inelos in mwe selnga.
Jerusalem, and the cities of Judah, and the kings thereof, and the princes thereof, to make them a waste, an astonishment, a hissing, and a curse, as it is this day;
19 Mwet inge wi pac nim ke cup sac: tokosra lun Egypt, mwet pwapa fulat ac mwet kol lal; mwet Egypt nukewa ac mwetsac in acn Egypt;
Pharaoh king of Egypt, and his servants, and his princes, and all his people;
20 tokosra nukewa in facl Uz; tokosra nukewa ke siti in acn Philistia inge: Ashkelon, Gaza, Ekron, ac mwet lula in acn Ashdod;
and all the mingled people, and all the kings of the land of Uz, and all the kings of the land of the Philistines, and Ashkelon, and Gazah, and Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod;
21 mwet nukewa in acn Edom, ac Moab, ac Ammon;
Edom, and Moab, and the children of Ammon;
22 tokosra nukewa lun Tyre ac Sidon; tokosra nukewa lun acn wekof lun Mediterranean;
and all the kings of Tyre, and all the kings of Zidon, and the kings of the isles that are beyond the sea;
23 siti Dedan, Tema, Buz, elos nukewa su koala aunsuf ke likintupalos;
Dedan, and Tema, and Buz, and all that have the corners [of their beard] cut off;
24 tokosra nukewa Arabia tokosra nukewa lun sruf yen mwesis;
and all the kings of Arabia, and all the kings of the mingled people that dwell in the desert;
25 tokosra nukewa lun Zimri, Elam, ac Media;
and all the kings of Zimri, and all the kings of Elam, and all the kings of the Medes;
26 tokosra nukewa in acn epang, elos su muta loessula ac su apkuran, sie tukun sie. Tokosra nukewa fin faclu elos ac nim kac, na saflaiya tokosra Babylonia el fah nim.
and all the kings of the north, far and near, one with another; and all the kingdoms of the world, which are upon the face of the earth; and the king of Sheshach shall drink after them.
27 Toko LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik, “Fahk nu sin mwet uh lah nga, LEUM GOD Kulana, God lun Israel, nga sapkin nu selos in nim nwe ke elos sruhila woht, nwe ke elos ikori ac tia ku in tuyak, ke sripen mweun ma nga supu lainulos.
And thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Drink, and be drunken, and vomit, and fall, and rise no more, because of the sword that I will send among you.
28 Ac elos fin srangesr eis cup sac liki poum ac nim kac, na fahk nu selos lah LEUM GOD Kulana El fahk mu elos enenu na in nim.
And it shall be, if they refuse to take the cup from thy hand to drink, then shalt thou say unto them, Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Ye shall certainly drink.
29 Siti se emeet nga fah kunausla pa siti sik sifacna. Ya elos nunku mu ac tia kalyeiyuk elos? Mo, ac kalyeiyuk elos, mweyen nga ac supu mweun nu fin mwet nukewa fin faclu. Nga, LEUM GOD Kulana, pa fahk ma inge.
For behold, I begin to bring evil on the city that is called by my name, and should ye be altogether unpunished? Ye shall not be unpunished; for I call for a sword upon all the inhabitants of the earth, saith Jehovah of hosts.
30 “Jeremiah, kom enenu in sulkakin kas nukewa nga fahk uh. Kom enenu in fahk nu sin mwet inge mu, ‘LEUM GOD El ngirngir inkusrao me, Ac pulahl fah kasla liki acn fulatlana inkusrao. El fah ngirngir lain mwet lal. El fah sasa oana mwet ma lolongya grape uh. Mwet nukewa fin faclu fah lohngol,
And thou, prophesy unto them all these words, and say unto them, Jehovah will roar from on high, and utter his voice from his holy habitation; he will mightily roar upon his dwelling-place, he will give a shout, as they that tread [the vintage], against all the inhabitants of the earth.
31 Ac kusen ngirngir se inge fah kasla sun saflaiyen faclu. Oasr mwe amei lun LEUM GOD lain mutunfacl uh. El ac fah use mwet nukewa nu in nununku Ac uniya mwet koluk nukewa. LEUM GOD pa fahk ma inge.’”
The noise shall come to the end of the earth: for Jehovah hath a controversy with the nations, he entereth into judgment with all flesh; as for the wicked, he will give them up to the sword, saith Jehovah.
32 LEUM GOD Kulana El fahk mu kunausten lulap summa nu fin sie mutunfacl tukun sie, ac sie paka lulap kilkilukeni oe yen loessula saflaiyen faclu me.
Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Behold, evil shall go forth from nation to nation, and a great storm shall be raised up from the uttermost parts of the earth.
33 Ke len sac, monin mwet su LEUM GOD El uniya fah oaclik yen nukewa faclu. Wangin mwet fah tung kaclos, ac elos fah tia orekeni in pukpuki. Elos fah oanna fin acn uh oana fohkon kosro.
And the slain of Jehovah shall [be] at that day from [one] end of the earth even unto the [other] end of the earth: they shall not be lamented, neither gathered, nor buried; they shall be dung upon the face of the ground.
34 Tung, kowos mwet kol, kowos mwet sropo lun mwet luk. Kowos in wowoyak tung, ac ipippip infohk uh. Pa inge pacl in anwuki kowos, ac kowos ac fah laslaseyuki oana sheep mukul.
Howl, ye shepherds, and cry; and wallow yourselves [in the dust], noble ones of the flock: for the days of your slaughter are accomplished, and I will disperse you; and ye shall fall like a precious vessel.
35 Ac fah wangin kutena inkanek in kaingla lowos.
And refuge shall perish from the shepherds, and escape from the noble ones of the flock.
36 Lohng pusren tung lun mwet shepherd, ac wowoyak lun mwet kol lun un kosro uh! Tuh LEUM GOD El furokla acn in tohf kosro natulos.
There shall be a voice of the cry of the shepherds, and a howling of the noble ones of the flock: for Jehovah layeth waste their pasture;
37 Acn in mongla misla lalos wanginla, ke sripen fulen kasrkusrak lun LEUM GOD.
and the peaceable enclosures shall be desolated, because of the fierce anger of Jehovah.
38 LEUM GOD El som liki mwet lal, oana soko lion ma illa liki luf sel. Mwe aksangeng ke mweun, ac kasrkusrak fol lun LEUM GOD, ekulla facl se inge nu ke sie acn mwesis.
He hath forsaken his covert as a young lion; for their land is a desolation because of the fierceness of the oppressor, and because of his fierce anger.
