< 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?
Of the children of Ammon. Yahweh says: “Has Israel no sons? Has he no heir? Why then does Malcam possess Gad, and his people dwell 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.
Therefore behold, the days come,” says Yahweh, “that I will cause an alarm of war to be heard against Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and it will become a desolate heap, and her daughters will be burned with fire; then 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.
“Wail, Heshbon, for Ai is laid waste! Cry, you daughters of Rabbah! Clothe yourself in sackcloth. Lament, and run back and forth among the fences; for Malcam will go into captivity, his priests and his princes together.
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 boast in the valleys, your flowing valley, backsliding daughter? You trusted in her treasures, saying, ‘Who will come to 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.
Behold, I will bring a terror on you,” says the Lord, Yahweh of Armies, “from all who are around you. All of you will be driven completely out, and there will be no one to gather together the fugitives.
6 Tusruktu tok, nga fah oru mwet Ammon in sifil kapkapak. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
“But afterward I will reverse the captivity of the children of Ammon,” says Yahweh.
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?
Of Edom, Yahweh of Armies says: “Is wisdom no more in Teman? Has counsel perished from the prudent? Has their wisdom vanished?
8 Mwet Dedan, kowos in forla, kaing, ac wikla! Nga ac kunausla fwilin tulik natul Esau mweyen sun pacl ngan kaelos.
Flee! Turn back! Dwell in the depths, inhabitants of Dedan; for I will bring the calamity of Esau on him when I visit 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 gatherers came to you, would they not leave some gleaning grapes? If thieves came by night, wouldn’t they steal until they had enough?
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 made Esau bare, I have uncovered his secret places, and he will not be able to hide himself. His offspring is destroyed, with his brothers and his neighbors; and he is no more.
11 Filiya tulik mukaimtal nutuwos an yuruk, ac nga fah liyalosyang. Katinmas lowos an ku in lulalfongiyu in kasrelos.
Leave your fatherless children. I will preserve them alive. Let your widows 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: “Behold, they to whom it didn’t pertain to drink of the cup will certainly drink; and are you he who will altogether go unpunished? You won’t go unpunished, but you will surely 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,” says Yahweh, “that Bozrah will become an astonishment, a reproach, a waste, and a curse. All its cities will be perpetual wastes.”
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 an ambassador is sent among the nations, saying, “Gather yourselves together! Come against her! Rise up to the battle!”
15 LEUM GOD El ac oru kom in munas inmasrlon mutunfacl uh, ac elos fah pilesrekom.
“For, behold, I have made you small among the nations, and despised among men.
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 terror, the pride of your heart has deceived you, O you who dwell in the clefts of the rock, who hold the height of the hill, though you should make your nest as high as the eagle, I will bring you down from there,” says Yahweh.
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 an astonishment. Everyone who passes by it will be astonished, and will hiss at all its plagues.
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.
As in the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah and its neighbor cities,” says Yahweh, “no man will dwell there, neither will any son of man live therein.
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?
“Behold, he will come up like a lion from the pride of the Jordan against the strong habitation; for I will suddenly make them run away from it, and whoever is chosen, I will appoint him over it. For who is like me? Who will appoint me a time? Who is the shepherd who will stand before 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.
Therefore hear the counsel of Yahweh, that he has taken against Edom, and his purposes that he has purposed against the inhabitants of Teman: Surely they will drag them away, the little ones of the flock. Surely he will make their habitation desolate over them.
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.
The earth trembles at the noise of their fall; there is a cry, the noise which is heard in the Red Sea.
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.”
Behold, he will come up and fly as the eagle, and spread out his wings against Bozrah. The heart of the mighty men of Edom at that day will be as the heart of a woman in her pangs.
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.
Of Damascus: “Hamath and Arpad are confounded, for they have heard evil news. They have melted away. There is sorrow on the sea. It can’t be quiet.
24 Mwet Damascus elos munaslana, ac elos nukewa kaing. Elos fosrnga ac sensen ac keok, oana sie mutan in pacl in isus.
Damascus has grown feeble, she turns herself to flee, and trembling has seized her. Anguish and sorrows have taken hold of her, as of a woman in travail.
25 Siti se ma tuh pwengpeng ac engan meet, inge wanginla mwet muta we.
How is the city of praise not forsaken, the city of my joy?
26 Ke len sac, mwet fusr lal ac fah anwuki inkanek lun siti uh, ac mwet mweun lal nukewa sikiyukla.
Therefore her young men will fall in her streets, and all the men of war will be brought to silence in that day,” says Yahweh of Armies.
27 Nga fah esukak pot lun Damascus, ac nga fah furreak inkul fulat sel Tokosra Benadad. Nga, LEUM GOD Kulana, pa fahk ma inge.”
“I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus, and it will devour the palaces 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!
Of Kedar, and of the kingdoms of Hazor, which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon struck, Yahweh says: “Arise, go up to Kedar, and destroy the children 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!’
They will take their tents and their flocks. they will carry away for themselves their curtains, all their vessels, and their camels; and they will cry to them, ‘Terror 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 off! Dwell in the depths, you inhabitants of Hazor,” says Yahweh; “for Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has taken counsel against you, and has conceived a purpose against you.
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! Go up to a nation that is at ease, that dwells without care,” says Yahweh; “that has neither gates nor bars, that dwells alone.
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.
Their camels will be a booty, and the multitude of their livestock a plunder. I will scatter to all winds those who have the corners of their beards cut off; and I will bring their calamity from every side of them,” says Yahweh.
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 be a dwelling place of jackals, a desolation forever. No man will dwell there, neither will any son of man live therein.”
34 Tia paht tukun Zedekiah el tokosrala lun Judah, LEUM GOD Kulana El kaskas nu sik ke acn Elam.
Yahweh’s word that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning Elam, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying,
35 El fahk, “Nga fah uniya mwet pisr nukewa su oru Elam arulana ku.
“Yahweh of Armies says: ‘Behold, I will break the bow of Elam, the chief of their might.
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.
I will bring on Elam the four winds from the four quarters of the sky, and will scatter them toward all those winds. There will be no nation where the outcasts of Elam will not come.
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.
I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies, and before those who seek their life. I will bring evil on them, even my fierce anger,’ says Yahweh; ‘and I will send the sword after them, until I have consumed them.
38 Nga fah kunausla tokosra ac mwet kol lalos, ac nga fah tulokunak tron luk we.
I will set my throne in Elam, and will destroy from there king and princes,’ says Yahweh.
39 Tusruktu tok nga fah oru mwet Elam in sifilpa kapkapak. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
‘But it will happen in the latter days that I will reverse the captivity of Elam,’ says Yahweh.”
