Jeremiah 49
1 Pa inge ma LEUM GOD El fahk ke mwet Ammon: “Pia mukul Israel uh? Ya wangin mwet in tuyak loango facl selos? Fuka tuh mwet ma alu nu sel Molech elos tuku eisla acn sin sruf lal Gad ac oakwuki we?
About the people of Ammon, Yahweh says this, “Does Israel have no children? Is there no one to inherit anything in Israel? Why does Molech occupy Gad, and his people live in its cities?
2 Tusruktu pacl se ac fah tuku ke nga fah oru mwet in siti fulat Rabbah in lohng kusen mweun, na acn we ac fah sikiyukla, ac inkul we ac fah firirla nwe ke apatla. Na mwet Israel fah sifil eisla acn selos ma mwet Ammon tuh eisla.
So look, the days are coming—this is Yahweh's declaration—when I will sound the signal for battle against Rabbah among the people of Ammon, so it will become a deserted heap and its villages will be set on fire. For Israel will possess those who possessed him,” says Yahweh.
3 Mwet Heshbon, kowos in wowoyak tung! Acn Ai kunausyukla! Mutan Rabbah, kowos in eoksra! Nokomang nuknuk yohk eoa ac muta in asor, ac sifacna sringil monuwos. Molech, god lowos, fah utukla nu in sruoh, wi mwet tol ac mwet fulat lal.
“Howl in lament, Heshbon, for Ai will be devastated! Shout out, daughters of Rabbah! Put on sackcloth. Lament and run about in futility, for Molech is going into captivity, together with his priests and leaders.
4 Kowos mwet sesuwos, efu kowos ku konkin? Ku lowos uh sriksrikeni. Efu ku kowos lulalfongi ku lowos sifacna, ac fahk mu wangin mwet ac pulaik in mweuni kowos?
Why do you brag about your valleys, your valleys that are so fruitful, faithless daughter? you who trust in your wealth and say, 'Who will come against me?'
5 Nga fah use mwe aksangeng nu fowos liki acn nukewa. Kowos nukewa fah kaingelik. Kais sie fah kaing in suk moul lal, ac wangin sie fah ku in orani mwet mweun lowos uh.
See, I am about to bring terror on you—this is the declaration of Lord Yahweh of hosts— this terror will come from all those who surround you. Each one of you will be scattered before it. There will be no one to gather those running away.
6 Tusruktu tok, nga fah oru mwet Ammon in sifil kapkapak. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
But after this I will restore the fortunes of the people of Ammon—this is Yahweh's declaration.”
7 Pa inge ma LEUM GOD Kulana El fahk ke acn Edom: “Ya wanginla pwapa ac oakwuk wo yurin mwet Edom? Ya mwet kasru lalos tila lotelos ke ma fal elos in oru? Ya lalmwetmet nukewa lalos wanginla?
About Edom, Yahweh of hosts says this, “Is there no longer any wisdom to be found in Teman? Has good advice disappeared from those who have understanding? Has their wisdom become corrupted?
8 Mwet Dedan, kowos in forla, kaing, ac wikla! Nga ac kunausla fwilin tulik natul Esau mweyen sun pacl ngan kaelos.
Flee! Turn back! Stay in holes in the ground, inhabitants of Dedan. For I am bringing the disaster of Esau on him at the time that I punish him.
9 Ke mwet uh sifani grape, elos ac likiya kutu in oanna ke oa in grape ah. Ac finne mwet pusrapasr uh ac tuku ke fong, elos ac eis na lupa elos enenu.
If grape harvesters came to you, would they not leave a little bit behind? If thieves came in the night, would they not steal only as much as they wanted?
10 Tusruktu nga arulana kunausla ma nukewa lun fwilin tulik natul Esau, ac nga konauk ac kunausla acn in wikwik lalos, na elos tia ku in sifil wikla we. Mwet Edom nukewa sikiyukla. Wangin siefanna selos lula.
But I have stripped Esau bare. I have revealed his hiding places. So he will not be able to hide himself. His children, his brothers, and his neighbors are destroyed, and he is gone.
11 Filiya tulik mukaimtal nutuwos an yuruk, ac nga fah liyalosyang. Katinmas lowos an ku in lulalfongiyu in kasrelos.
Leave your orphans behind. I will take care of their lives, and your widows can trust in me.”
12 “Fin pa mwet su wangin mwata enenu in nim ke cup in kaiyuk, ya kowos nunku mu kowos ac tia wi sun kaiyuk? Mo, kowos enenu na in nim ke cup sac!
For Yahweh says this, “See, those who did not deserve it must certainly drink some of the cup. Do you yourself think you will go without punishment? You will not, for you will certainly drink.
13 Nga sifacna fulahk lah siti Bozrah ac fah ekla sie acn sikiyukla ac mwet uh ac tuninfong ke liyeya. Elos ac fah sufan, ac orekmakin inen acn we oana kas in selnga. Inkul atulani nukewa ac fah oan srualana nwe tok. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
For I have sworn by myself—this is Yahweh's declaration—that Bozrah will become a horror, a disgrace, a devastation, and an object for cursing. All of its cities will become devastations forever.
14 Na nga fahk, “Edom, nga eis sie kas sin LEUM GOD me. El supwama sie mwet in sulkakin nu sin mutunfacl uh tuh elos in orani un mwet mweun lalos ac akola in mweuni kom.
I have heard news from Yahweh, and a messenger has been sent out to the nations, 'Gather together and attack her. Get ready for battle.'
15 LEUM GOD El ac oru kom in munas inmasrlon mutunfacl uh, ac elos fah pilesrekom.
“For see, I have made you small compared to the other nations, despised by people.
16 Inse fulat lom uh kiapwekomla, ac kom nunku mu mutunfacl saya elos sangeng sum. Kom muta fin fulu uh, yen fulat fin mangon eol uh; tusruktu kom nwe muta yen fulat oana eagle uh, LEUM GOD El ac srukkomi nwe ten. LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
As for your fearsomeness, your heart's pride has deceived you, inhabitants of places on the cliff, you who have occupied the highest hills so that you may make your nest high like an eagle. I will bring you down from there—this is Yahweh's declaration.
17 LEUM GOD El fahk, “Lupan musalla ma ac sikyak in acn Edom ac fah arulana upa, oru elos nukewa su fahsryak we ac fah lut ac tuninfongla.
Edom will become a horror to everyone passing by it. Every such person will tremble and hiss because all of its disasters.
18 Ma ac sikyak nu ke acn Edom inge, pa pacna tuh sikyak nu ke acn Sodom ac Gomorrah ke tuh kunausyukla acn we, wi inkul nukewa ma oan raunela. Wangin mwet ac sifilpa muta we. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.
Like the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah and their neighbors,” says Yahweh, “no one will live there; no person will stay there.
19 Oana ke soko lion ac sasma liki insak matol sisken Infahl Jordan yak nu ke inima folfol insroa, nga fah tuku ac oru mwet Edom in sa kaing liki facl selos. Na mwet kol se nga sulela uh ac fah leumi facl sac. Su ku in lumweyuk nu sik? Su pulaik in kisrungyu? Ma ya mwet leum se ac lainyu?
See, he will go up like a lion from the forests of the Jordan to the green pasturelands. For I will quickly make Edom run from it, and I will put someone who will be chosen in charge of it. For who is like me, and who will summon me? What shepherd is able to resist me?”
20 Ouinge, porongo oakwuk ma nga oru in lain mwet Edom, ac ma nga akoo in oru nu sin mwet in siti Teman. Finne tulik natulos, ac amala som, ac mwet nukewa ac fah tuninfongla.
“So listen to the plans that Yahweh has decided against Edom, the plans that he has formed against the inhabitants of Teman. They will certainly be dragged away, even the smallest flock. Their pasturelands will be turned into ruined places.
21 Pacl se Edom ac putatla uh, kusa uh ac arulana yohk, pwanang faclu nufon kusrusryak, ac pusren tuninfong lun mwet uh ac fah lohngyuk oe yen loessula, sun Meoa Srusra.
At the sound of their falling the earth shakes. The sound of distressed shouts is heard at the Sea of Reeds.
22 Mwet lokoalok ac fah mweuni Bozrah oana sie eagle asroelik paol ac pwesroulme. Ke len sac, mwet mweun lun Edom ac fah sangeng oana sie mutan ac isus.”
See, someone will attack like an eagle, and swoop down and spread his wings over Bozrah. Then on that day, the hearts of Edom's soldiers will become like the heart of a woman in birth labor.”
23 Pa inge ma LEUM GOD El fahk ke acn Damascus: “Mwet in siti Hamath ac Arpad elos fosrnga ac sensen mweyen elos lohng pweng koluk. Mwe sensen afnulosi oana pulkulak lun noa meoa, ac elos tia ku in mongla.
About Damascus: “Hamath and Arpad will be ashamed, for they have heard news of disaster. They melt away! They become as troubled as the sea, which cannot stay calm.
24 Mwet Damascus elos munaslana, ac elos nukewa kaing. Elos fosrnga ac sensen ac keok, oana sie mutan in pacl in isus.
Damascus has become very weak. It turns away to flee; terror seizes it. Distress and pain seize it, like the pain of a woman giving birth.
25 Siti se ma tuh pwengpeng ac engan meet, inge wanginla mwet muta we.
How has the city of praise not been forsaken, the town of my joy?
26 Ke len sac, mwet fusr lal ac fah anwuki inkanek lun siti uh, ac mwet mweun lal nukewa sikiyukla.
Therefore its young men will fall in its plazas, and all the fighting men will perish on that day—this is the declaration of Yahweh of hosts.”
27 Nga fah esukak pot lun Damascus, ac nga fah furreak inkul fulat sel Tokosra Benadad. Nga, LEUM GOD Kulana, pa fahk ma inge.”
“For I will light a fire on the wall of Damascus, and it will devour the strongholds of Ben Hadad.”
28 Pa inge ma LEUM GOD El fahk ke sruf Kedar ac facl ma karinginyuk sin acn Hazor, su tuh kutangyukla sel Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar lun Babylonia: “Mweuni mwet Kedar, ac sukela sruf se ingan su muta in acn kutulap!
About Kedar and the kingdoms of Hazor, Yahweh says this to Nebuchadnezzar (now Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon was going to attack these places): “Arise and attack Kedar and destroy those people of the east.
29 Sruokya lohm nuknuk selos ac un kosro natulos, mwe lisrlisr ke lohm nuknuk selos ac ma nukewa in lohm selos. Eisla camel natulos ac fahk nu sin mwet uh, ‘Kowos rauniyukla ke mwe aksangeng!’
Their tents and their flocks will be taken, along with their tent curtains and all of their equipment; their camels will be led away from them, and men will shout to them, “Terror is on every side!”
30 “Mwet Hazor, nga LEUM GOD, sensenkakin kowos tuh kowos in kaingla nu yen loessula ac wikla. Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar lun Babylonia el orek pwapa in lain kowos, ac pa inge ma el fahk,
Flee! Wander far away! Stay in holes in the ground, inhabitants of Hazor—this is Yahweh's declaration— for Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has devised a plan against you. Flee! Turn back!
31 ‘Tuyak, som mweuni mwet ingo su muta in misla ac wangin fosrnga lalos! Acn selos wangin mutunpot, wangin pac polosak in sang kaliya, ac wangin facl apkuran nu yorolos.
Arise! Attack the nation at ease, that lives in safety,” says Yahweh. “They have no gates or bars in them, and its people live by themselves.
32 “Eisla camel ac cow nukewa natulos! Mwet ingan su kalla insifalos fototo, nga fah luselosla nu yen nukewa. Nga fah oru tuh ongoiya in tuku nu faclos yen nukewa me.
For their camels will become plunder, and the abundance of their property will become war plunder. Then I will scatter to every wind those who cut the corners of their hair, and I will bring disaster on them from every side—this is Yahweh's declaration.
33 Acn Hazor ac fah sie acn mwesis nwe tok, sie acn ma kosro inima mukena muta we. Wangin mwet ac sifilpa muta we. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
Hazor will become a lair of jackals, a permanent wasteland. No one will live there; no human being will stay there.”
34 Tia paht tukun Zedekiah el tokosrala lun Judah, LEUM GOD Kulana El kaskas nu sik ke acn Elam.
This is the word of Yahweh that came to Jeremiah the prophet about Elam. This happened at the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, and he said,
35 El fahk, “Nga fah uniya mwet pisr nukewa su oru Elam arulana ku.
“Yahweh of hosts says this: See, I am about to break the bowmen of Elam, the main part of their power.
36 Nga fah oru eng uh in tuhyak lain Elam liki acn nukewa, ac nga fah akfahsryelik mwet lal nu yen nukewa, nwe ke wangin sie mutunfacl ma elos tia kaingelik nu we.
For I will bring the four winds from the four corners of the heavens, and I will scatter the people of Elam to all of those winds. There is no nation to which those scattered from Elam will not go.
37 Nga fah oru mwet Elam elos in sangeng sin mwet lokoalok lalos, su lungse onelosi. In kasrkusrak lulap luk, nga fah kunausla mwet Elam ac supwala un mwet mweun lainulos nwe ke nga sukelosla nufon.
So I will shatter Elam before their enemies and before those who seek their lives. for I will bring disaster against them, the fury of my wrath—this is Yahweh's declaration— and I will send the sword after them until I have annihilated them.
38 Nga fah kunausla tokosra ac mwet kol lalos, ac nga fah tulokunak tron luk we.
Then I will put my throne in Elam and will destroy its king and leaders from there—this is Yahweh's declaration—
39 Tusruktu tok nga fah oru mwet Elam in sifilpa kapkapak. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
and it will happen in later days that I will bring back the fortunes of Elam—this is Yahweh's declaration.”
