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 which came to Jeremiah concerning all the people of Judah in the fourth year of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, king of Judah, which was the first year of Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon;
2 Nga fahk nu sin mwet Judah ac mwet Jerusalem nukewa,
which Jeremiah the prophet spake to 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, king of Judah, even to this day, for three and twenty years, the word of Jehovah hath come to me, and I have spoken to 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.
Also Jehovah hath sent to you all his servants the prophets, rising early and sending them; 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.
“Turn ye now,” said they, “every one from your evil way, and from your evil doings, and ye shall dwell in the land which Jehovah gave to you and to your fathers for ever and 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 strange 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 to me, saith Jehovah, that ye might provoke me to anger with the works 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 hearkened 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 nations of the North, saith Jehovah, and Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, my servant, and will bring them against this land and its inhabitants, and against all these nations round about, and will utterly destroy them, and make them an astonishment, and a hissing, and a perpetual desolation.
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.
Yea, I will take from them the voice of mirth, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride, the sound of the mill-stones, 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 be a desolation and 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.
But when seventy years shall have passed, I will punish the king of Babylon and his nation for their iniquity, saith Jehovah, and the land of the Chaldaeans, and I will make it a perpetual desolation.
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 they, even they, shall be brought into subjection to many nations and great kings. I will render to them according to their deeds, and according to the works of their own 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 to me: Take this cup of the wine of wrath from my hand; and let all the nations to which I shall send thee drink of it.
16 Pacl se elos ac nimya, elos ac fahsr ikorkor ac wella ke sripen mweun nga supu in lainulos.”
Let them drink, and stagger, and become mad because of the sword which I am about to 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.
So I took the cup from the hand of Jehovah, and gave it to all the nations to drink, to which Jehovah 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.
to Jerusalem and to the cities of Judah, and to the kings thereof, and the princes thereof, to make them a desolation, and an astonishment, and 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;
To Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and to his servants, and to his princes, and to 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 allied people; and to all the kings of the land of Uz, and to all the kings of the land of the Philistines, and to Askelon, and to Gaza, and to Ekron, and to the remnant of Ashdod;
21 mwet nukewa in acn Edom, ac Moab, ac Ammon;
to Edom, and to Moab, and to the children of Ammon;
22 tokosra nukewa lun Tyre ac Sidon; tokosra nukewa lun acn wekof lun Mediterranean;
and to all the kings of Tyre, and to all the kings of Sidon, and to the kings of the lands which are beyond the sea;
23 siti Dedan, Tema, Buz, elos nukewa su koala aunsuf ke likintupalos;
to Dedan, and to Tema, and to Buz, and to all that shave the cheek;
24 tokosra nukewa Arabia tokosra nukewa lun sruf yen mwesis;
and to all the kings of Arabia, and to all the kings of the allied people who dwell in the desert;
25 tokosra nukewa lun Zimri, Elam, ac Media;
and to all the kings of Zimri, and to all the kings of Elam, and to all the kings of Media;
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 to all the kings of the North, those that are near, and those that are afar off with respect to each other, and to all the kingdoms of the earth which are upon the face of the ground; 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 say to them, Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Drink ye and be drunken, and vomit, and fall to rise no more because of the sword which I am about to 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 if they refuse to take the cup from thy hand to drink, then say to them, Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Ye shall surely 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, upon the city which is called by my name I begin to bring evil; and shall ye go wholly unpunished? Ye shall not go unpunished; for I am about to call the 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,
Therefore, prophesy against them all these words, and say to them: —Jehovah shall roar from on high, From his holy habitation shall he utter his voice; He shall roar aloud against his dwelling-place; A shout like that of vintagers shall he raise 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.’”
An outcry shall reach to the ends of the earth; For Jehovah hath a controversy with the nations; He entereth into judgment with all flesh; The wicked will he give 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 whirlwind shall be raised up from the extremities 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.
At that day shall the slain of Jehovah lie From one end of the earth to the other end of the earth; They shall not be lamented, nor gathered, nor buried; They shall be dung upon 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, O ye shepherds, and cry! Roll yourselves in the dust, ye leaders of the flock, For your time to be slaughtered has come! And I will scatter you, and ye shall fall like a goodly vessel.
35 Ac fah wangin kutena inkanek in kaingla lowos.
The shepherds shall have no way to flee, Nor the leaders of the flock to escape.
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.
[[Hark!]] the voice of the cry of the shepherds, And the wailing of the leaders of the flock, Because Jehovah layeth waste their pasture!
37 Acn in mongla misla lalos wanginla, ke sripen fulen kasrkusrak lun LEUM GOD.
Yea, the peaceful pastures are destroyed 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 left, like a lion, his covert; For their land is become desolate, Because of the wrath of the destroying sword, And because of the fierceness of his anger.
