1 LEUM GOD El fahk, “Mwet Israel, kowos fin lungse forla, kowos forma nu sik. Kowos fin pwaye nu sik ac sisla ma sruloala ma nga srunga ingan,
If you will return O Israel - [the] utterance of Yahweh to me you will return and if you will remove detestable things your from before me and not you will waver.
2 na ac tufah fal kowos in fulahk ke Inek. Mutunfacl nukewa fah siyuk sik in akinsewowoyalos, ac elos fah kaksakinyu.”
And you will swear [by] [the] life of Yahweh in faithfulness in justice and in righteousness and they will bless themselves by him nations and in him they will boast.
3 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sin mwet Judah ac Jerusalem, “Akfisrasryeak fohk ke acn ma soenna imaiyuk. Nimet yukwiya fita sunowos inmasrlon kokul uh.
For thus - he says Yahweh to [the] man of Judah and to Jerusalem plow of you unplowed ground and may not you sow to thorns.
4 Kowos mwet Judah ac Jerusalem, kowos in karinganang wuleang su nga, LEUM GOD lowos, orala inmasrlok ac kowos, ac kowos in sifacna kisakinkowosme nu sik. Kowos fin tia oru, na kasrkusrak luk ac tayak oana e, ke sripen ma koluk kowos oru. Ac fah firir ac wangin sie ku in konela.”
Circumcise yourselves to Yahweh and remove [the] foreskins of heart your O man of Judah and [the] inhabitants of Jerusalem lest it should go forth like fire rage my and it will burn and there not [will be one who] extinguishes because of [the] wickedness of deeds your.
