Jeremiah 48
1 Pa inge ma LEUM GOD Kulana El fahk ke acn Moab: “Pakomuta mwet Nebo, Siti selos uh kunausyukla! Sruoh tari siti Kiriathaim, Pot kulana we ikruiyuki, Ac mwet we akmwekinyeyuk;
Concerning Moab. Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Woe to Nebo, for it is laid waste! Kiriathaim is confounded, is taken. Misgab is confounded and dismayed.
2 Oasku lun Moab wanginla. Mwet lokoalok elos sruokya acn Heshbon Ac akoo in sukela mutunfacl Moab nufon. Ac fah wanginla pusra lohngyuk in siti Madmen; Un mwet mweun ac fah mukuiyak in mweuni.
Moab shall no more glory in Heshbon; They have devised evil against her; “Come, [[say they, ]] and let us cut her off from being a nation!” Thou also shalt be cut down, O Madmena, The sword shall pursue thee!
3 Mwet in acn Horonaim wowoyak ac fahk, “Yoklana mwe lokoalok! Yoklana mwe ongoiya!”
A cry is heard from Horonaim, Desolation and great destruction.
4 “Sikiyukla acn Moab. Lohng ke tulik uh tung.
Moab is destroyed; Her little ones raise a cry.
5 Lohng pusren mwemelil lalos Ke elos ututyak innek nu Luhith, Ac tung in ongoiya lalos Ke elos tufokla ke innek nu Horonaim.
At the ascent of Luhith Weeping goeth up after weeping; At the descent of Horonaim is heard a bitter cry of despair.
6 Elos fahk, ‘Sulaklak, kaing! Suk moul lowos! Kasrusr oana soko donkey lemnak yen mwesis!’
Flee ye! save your lives! Be ye like one that has been stripped in the wilderness!
7 “Moab, kom filiya lulalfongi lom in ku lom ac mwe kasrup lom, Tusruktu, kom ac fah kutangyukla. Chemosh, god lom, fah utukla nu in sruoh, Wi fisrak ac mwet tol lal.
For, because thou hast trusted in thy substance and thy treasures, Thou also shalt be taken And Chemosh shall go into captivity, His priests and his princes together.
8 Siti nukewa ac fah kunausyukla; Infahlfal uh ac acn tupasrpasr ac fah sikiyukla pac. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.
The spoiler shall come upon every city, And no city shall escape. The valley shall perish, And the plain shall be destroyed, As Jehovah hath spoken.
9 Tulokunak sie eot in kulyuk lun acn Moab. Ac tia paht el musalla. Siti we ac fah filfilla in kulawi, Ac wangin mwet fah sifilpa muta we.” (
Give wings to Moab, That she may flee away; For her cities shall be a desolation, With none to dwell therein.
10 Selngawiyuk mwet se su tia oru orekma lun LEUM GOD ke insial nufon! Selngawiyuk mwet se su sruokya cutlass natul in tia aksororye srah!)
Cursed be he that doeth the work of Jehovah deceitfully, And cursed be he that keepeth back his sword from blood!
11 LEUM GOD El fahk, “Oemeet me acn Moab oanna okak — soenna utukla nu in sruoh. Moab el oana wain ma filiyuki in oan sraholu — tia mokleyuk ku okwok liki sufa nu ke sufa, pwanang emah uh, ac fohlo, tia ekla; oanna wo.
Moab hath been at ease from his youth, And he hath settled on his lees, And hath not been drawn off from vessel to vessel, Neither hath he gone into captivity; Therefore his taste hath remained in him, And his flavor hath not changed.
12 “Tusruktu pacl se ac tuku ke nga fah supwala mwet in okoala acn Moab oana wain. Elos fah okoala nwe ke lisr, ac elos fah fukulya sufa uh nu ke ip sririk.
Therefore, behold, the days come, saith Jehovah, That I will send to him tilters, who shall tilt him up, And shall empty his vessels, and break his pitchers in pieces.
13 Na mwet Moab ac fah tia sifil lulalfongel Chemosh, god lalos, oana ke mwet Israel tuh fuhleak lulalfongi lalos kacl Bethel, sie god elos tuh lulalfongi meet.
And Moab shall be ashamed of Chemosh, As the house of Israel was ashamed of Bethel, their confidence.
14 “Mukul Moab, efu kowos ku fahk mu kowos mwet mweun watwen, Mwet pulaik ac fokoko ke mweun?
How will ye say, “We are mighty, And strong men for war”?
15 Moab ac siti we kunausyukla; Mukul fusr pisrla we anwuki. Nga pa tokosra, LEUM GOD Kulana, Ac nga pa fahk ma inge.
Moab is destroyed; His cities have gone up in smoke, And his chosen young men have gone down to slaughter, Saith the King whose name is Jehovah of hosts.
16 Mwe ongoiya lulap apkunme in sun acn Moab; Mwe keok lal uh ac sa na sikyak.
The destruction of Moab is near at hand; His destruction hasteth fast.
17 “Tungi mutunfacl sac, kowos su muta apkuran, Kowos nukewa su etu pungal. Fahk mu, ‘Ku lun tokosrai lal musalla; Wolana ac ku lal wanginla.’
All ye that are about him, bemoan him! And all ye that know him, say, “How is the strong sceptre broken, The splendid staff!”
18 Kowos su muta Dibon, Tufokme liki acn fulat suwos Ac muta fin fohk uh in kutkut uh. Mwet se ma ac kunausla Moab oasr inge, El kunausla tari pot ku we.
Come down from thy glory and sit in thirst, O inhabitant of Dibon! For the destroyer of Moab shall come against thee! He shall destroy thy strongholds. Stand by the wayside, and look out,
19 Kowos su muta Aroer, Tu sisken inkanek uh ac soano. Siyuk selos su kaing Lah mea sikyak.
O inhabitant of Aroer! Ask of him that fleeth, and of her that escapeth, And say, “What hath been done?”
20 Na elos ac topuk, ‘Acn Moab ikori. Kowos in tungi, mweyen Moab el arulana tonongla. Sulkakinelik pe Infacl Arnon Lah Moab sikiyukla!’
Moab is confounded; for it is broken down; Howl ye, and cry! Tell ye it in Arnon, That Moab is destroyed!
21 “Nununku tuku tari nu fin siti inge su oan yen tupasrpasr: Holon, Jahzah, Mephaath,
And punishment hath come upon the plain country; Upon Holon, and upon Jahazah, and upon Mephaath,
22 Dibon, Nebo, Beth Diblathaim,
And upon Dibon, and upon Nebo, and upon Beth-diblathaim.
23 Kiriathaim, Bethgamul, Bethmeon,
And upon Kiriathaim, and upon Beth-gamul, and upon Beth-meon,
24 Kerioth, ac Bozrah. Nununku tuku nu fin siti nukewa in acn Moab, loes ac apkuran.
And upon Kerioth, and upon Bozrah, And upon all the cities of the land of Moab far and near.
25 Ku lun Moab itungyuki; kufwen mwe mweun lal kipatpatu. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
The horn of Moab is cut off, And his arm is broken, saith Jehovah.
26 LEUM GOD El fahk, “Oru acn Moab in sruhila, mweyen el utuk nunak lainyu. Moab el fah ipippip in woht lal sifacna, ac mwet uh ac isrunul.
Make ye him drunken, for he hath exalted himself against Jehovah; That he also may wallow in his vomit, And be himself also in derision.
27 Moab, kom esam ke kom aksruksruki mwet Israel? Kom lumahlos oana un mwet ingunyar.
Was not Israel a derision to thee? Was he found among thieves, That, as often as thou spakest of him, thou shouldst shake thy head?
28 “Kowos su muta in Moab, tuyak som liki siti suwos ac muta fin fulu uh, oana wuleoa ma oru ahng lalos sisken acn oatu in eot uh.
Leave the cities and dwell in the rock, O inhabitants of Moab! Be like the dove, that maketh her nest in the sides of the mouth of the pit!
29 Moab el arulana inse fulat! Nga lohng luman filang, enum ac ekak lun mwet we, ac lah elos arulana nunku kaclos sifacna.
We have heard of the pride of Moab; He hath been exceeding proud; His loftiness and his arrogance, His pride and the haughtiness of his heart.
30 Nga, LEUM GOD, etu ke tungak lalos. Konkin lalos uh wanginna sripa, ac ma elos oru ac tiana oan paht.
I, too, know his insolence, saith Jehovah, And his vain boastings. They shall effect nothing.
31 Ke ma inge nga fah tungi mwet nukewa in acn Moab, oayapa ke mwet Kir Heres.
Therefore will I wail for Moab, Even for all Moab will I cry out; For the men of Kir-heres shall there be mourning.
32 Nga fah tungi mwet Jazer, ac nga ac tungi mwet Sibmah yohk liki. Siti Sibmah, kom oana oa in grape soko ma lah kac tupalla sun Meoa Misa, ac som pacna nwe Jazer. Tusruktu inge grape sunom ac fokinsak lom ke pacl fol uh sikiyukla.
More than Jazer will I weep for thee, O vine of Sibmah! Thy branches have passed beyond the sea; They reach even to the sea of Jazer; Upon thy summer-fruits and thy vintage the spoiler falleth.
33 Wanginla pusren engan ac insewowo in facl Moab, sie acn ma wo fohk we. Nga tulokinya wain in tia soror liki nien orek wain. Wanginna mwet in fut grape uh, oru wangin sasa ke engan.
And joy and gladness are taken away from the fruitful field; And from the land of Moab, And from the presses, have I caused the wine to fail: No more shall they tread with shouting; The shouting shall be no shouting.
34 “Mwet Heshbon ac Elealeh wowoyak tung, ac pusralos ku in lohngyuk oe Jahaz. Ku in lohngyuk pac sin mwet Zoar, ac lohngyuk pac e Horonaim ac Eglath Shelishiyah. Finne infacl srisrik Nimrim, paola pac.
From wailing Heshbon to Elealeh, Even to Jahaz, is their voice heard, From Zoar even to Horonaim, To Eglath-shelishijah; For even the waters of Nimrim are desolate.
35 Nga fah tulokinya mwet Moab liki orek mwe kisa firir ke acn in alu lalos, ac liki orek kisa nu sin god lalos. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.
And I will cause to cease in Moab, saith Jehovah, Him that offereth in the high places, And him that burneth incense to his gods.
36 “Ouinge insiuk eoksra kacl Moab ac ke mwet Kir Heres, oana sie mwet su oru on in pukmas ke mwe ukuk natul, mweyen ma nukewa lalos wanginla.
Therefore doth my heart sound like a flute for Moab, And for the men of Ker-heres doth my heart sound like a flute; For the remnant of their substance is perished.
37 Ke sripen asor lalos, elos nukewa mangsrasrala ac kalla altalos. Elos nukewa sipik paolos, ac nukum nuknuk yohk eoa.
Every head is bald, And every beard shorn; Upon all hands are cutting, And upon the loins sackcloth.
38 Fin lohm nukewa Moab ac ke nien toeni nukewa, wangin ma orek sayen eoksra, mweyen nga fukulya acn Moab oana soko sufa fukulyuki ma wangin mwet enenu.
Upon all the house-tops of Moab, and in her streets, All is lamentation. For I have broken Moab, like a useless vessel, saith Jehovah.
39 Kowos in wowoyak ke tung, mweyen acn Moab fukulyuki ac akmwekinyeyuk. El kunanula ac mutunfacl nukewa raunelak israsrinkusrael. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
Howl ye! How is he broken down! How hath Moab turned the back with shame! A derision and a consternation is Moab To all that are round him.
40 LEUM GOD El wulela mu sie mutunfacl ac fah tuhwi nu fin Moab, oana sie eagle ma asroelik posohksok lal,
For thus saith Jehovah: Behold, like an eagle flieth an enemy, And spreadeth his wings over Moab.
41 na siti ac pot ku nukewa ac fah sruoh. In len sac mwet mweun lun Moab ac fah arulana sangeng, oana sie mutan ke pacl in isus lal.
Kerioth is taken, And the strongholds are seized; The hearts of the heroes of Moab in that day Shall be like the heart of a woman in her pangs.
42 Moab ac sikiyuk tuh in tia sifilpa sie mutunfacl, mweyen el likkeke lainyu.
And Moab shall be destroyed so as to be no more a people, Because he exalted himself against Jehovah.
43 Sangeng, ac luf, ac sruhf oan soano mwet Moab. LEUM GOD pa fahk ma inge.
Terror and the pit and the snare are upon thee, O inhabitant of Moab, saith Jehovah.
44 Kutena mwet su srike in kaingla liki mwe aksangeng inge fah putatyang nu in luf uh, ac kutena mwet su fanyak liki luf uh, ac fah sremla ke sruhf, mweyen LEUM GOD El oakiya tari pacl in kalyei nu sin Moab.
He that fleeth from the terror shall fall into the pit, And he that getteth up out of the pit shall be taken in the snare; For I will bring upon it, upon Moab, The year of their punishment, saith Jehovah.
45 Mwet uh kaing in suk molela in acn Heshbon, siti se ma Tokosra Sihon el tuh leumi meet, tusruktu firiryak acn we. E uh esukak mangon eol ac masrol lun acn sin mwet Moab su lungsena orek mweun.
In the valley of Heshbon the fugitives halted for want of strength; But a fire is gone forth from Heshbon, And a flame from the midst of Sihon, Which devoureth the region of Moab, And the heads of the sons of tumult.
46 Pakomuta mwet Moab! Kunausyukla mwet ma alu nu sel Chemosh, ac utukla wen ac acn natulos nu in sruoh.
Woe to thee, O Moab! Undone is the people of Chemosh! For thy sons are taken captives, And thy daughters are captives.
47 Tusruktu sie len, LEUM GOD El ac fah sifil akwoyeak acn Moab. LEUM GOD El fahk lah ma inge nukewa ac sikyak nu ke acn Moab.
Yet will I bring back the captivity of Moab In future times, saith Jehovah. Thus far the judgment of Moab.
