< Ezekiel 22 >

1 LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sik ac fahk,
Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
2 “Kom, mwet sukawil moul la, ya kom akola in nununku siti se inge su sesseslana ke mwet akmas? Oru in arulana kalem sel ma srungayuk nukewa ma el orala.
Now, thou son of man, wilt thou judge, wilt thou judge the bloody city? yea, thou shalt shew her all her abominations.
3 Fahkang nu sin siti sac ma nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, fahk inge: Ke sripen arulana pus mwet lom sifacna su kom uniya, ac oayapa kom akfohkfokyekomla ke kom alu nu ke ma sruloala, ouinge pacl lom apkuranme.
Then say thou, Thus saith the Lord GOD, The city sheddeth blood in the midst of it, that her time may come, and maketh idols against herself to defile herself.
4 Oasr mwatum ke akmas kom orala inge, ac kom fohkfokla ke sripen ma sruloala su kom orala. Ke ma inge len se srisrngiyuki nu sum ac tuku, na safla pacl lom! Pa inge sripa sis nga lela tuh mwet in facl saya uh in aksruksrukye kom, ac mutunfacl nukewa in isrun kom.
Thou art become guilty in thy blood that thou hast shed; and hast defiled thyself in thine idols which thou hast made; and thou hast caused thy days to draw near, and art come [even] unto thy years: therefore have I made thee a reproach unto the heathen, and a mocking to all countries.
5 Mutunfacl su apkuran ac oayapa su loessula ac isrun kom ke sripen kom tia moul ye ma sap.
[Those that be] near, and [those that be] far from thee, shall mock thee, [which art] infamous [and] much vexed.
6 Mwet kol lun Israel nukewa lulalfongi ke ku lalos sifacna ac orek akmas.
Behold, the princes of Israel, every one were in thee to their power to shed blood.
7 Wangin mwet in siti uh sunakin papa ac nina kialos. Elos orek kutasrik nu sin mwetsac, ac aklalfonye katinmas ac tulik mukaimtal.
In thee have they set light by father and mother: in the midst of thee have they dealt by oppression with the stranger: in thee have they vexed the fatherless and the widow.
8 Elos tia akfulatye acn mutal, ac tia pac karinganang len Sabbath.
Thou hast despised mine holy things, and hast profaned my sabbaths.
9 Kutu sin mwet lom uh fahk kas kikiap ke mwet ngia in pwanang in anwuki elos. Kutu selos kang mwe mongo ma kisala nu ke ma sruloala. Kutu mwet uh tia tui in oru lung koluk lalos.
In thee are men that carry tales to shed blood: and in thee they eat upon the mountains: in the midst of thee they commit lewdness.
10 Kutu selos oan yurin mutan kien papa tumalos. Kutu pac selos sifacna sruinku ac orek kosro nu sin mutan ke pacl elos musen malem.
In thee have they discovered their fathers’ nakedness: in thee have they humbled her that was set apart for pollution.
11 Kutu mwet uh orek kosro yurin mutan kien siena mukul, ac kutu nu sin mutan kien wen natulos, ku mutan wialos ke siena nina.
And one hath committed abomination with his neighbour’s wife; and another hath lewdly defiled his daughter in law; and another in thee hath humbled his sister, his father’s daughter.
12 Kutu sin mwet lom uh moul nu se in orek akmas. Kutu akyokye lupan kapak elos eis sin mwet Israel wialos su ngusr mani selos, ac elos kasrupi ke ma laesla inge. Elos mulkinyula.” LEUM GOD Fulatlana pa fahk ma inge.
In thee have they taken gifts to shed blood; thou hast taken usury and increase, and thou hast greedily gained of thy neighbours by extortion, and hast forgotten me, saith the Lord GOD.
13 “Nga fah pasolya pouk in kasrkusrak luk ke sripen pisrapasr ac akmas lom uh.
Behold, therefore I have smitten mine hand at thy dishonest gain which thou hast made, and at thy blood which hath been in the midst of thee.
14 Nga fin filiya pouk fom, ya kom nunku mu ac oasr pulaik lom, ku kom ac ku in sifil srukak poum? Tia ku! Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge, ac nga ac oru oana ma nga fahk.
Can thine heart endure, or can thine hands be strong, in the days that I shall deal with thee? I the LORD have spoken [it], and will do [it].
15 Nga ac fah akfahsryelik mwet lom nu in mutunfacl nukewa, ac tulokinya orekma koluk lom uh.
And I will scatter thee among the heathen, and disperse thee in the countries, and will consume thy filthiness out of thee.
16 Ouinge mutunfacl saya ac fah tia sifil akfulatye kom, ac kom ac fah etu lah nga pa LEUM GOD.”
And thou shalt take thine inheritance in thyself in the sight of the heathen, and thou shalt know that I [am] the LORD.
17 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik,
And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
18 “Mwet sukawil, wanginla sripen mwet Israel nu sik. Elos oana pukun osra — copper, tin, iron, ac lead — tukun kofelik silver uh liki eot ma manman ke sie funyu.
Son of man, the house of Israel is to me become dross: all they [are] brass, and tin, and iron, and lead, in the midst of the furnace; they are [even] the dross of silver.
19 Ke ma inge, nga LEUM GOD Fulatlana, fahk nu selos lah wangin sripalos nu sik oapana osra inge. Nga ac fah oraloseni nukewa nu in acn Jerusalem
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because ye are all become dross, behold, therefore I will gather you into the midst of Jerusalem.
20 oana ke eot ma oasr silver, copper, iron, lead ac tin loac uh orekeni in likliki in sie funyu. Fulen kasrkusrak luk ac fah oru elos in kofelik, oana fulen e uh oru eot uh in kofelik.
[As] they gather silver, and brass, and iron, and lead, and tin, into the midst of the furnace, to blow the fire upon it, to melt [it; ] so will I gather [you] in mine anger and in my fury, and I will leave [you there], and melt you.
21 Aok, nga fah oraloseni nu Jerusalem, tanak sie e ah yalos, ac oru elos in kofelik ke kasrukusrak luk.
Yea, I will gather you, and blow upon you in the fire of my wrath, and ye shall be melted in the midst thereof.
22 Elos fah kofelik in Jerusalem oana ke silver uh kofelik in funyu uh, na elos fah etu lah elos oan ye kasrkusrak lun LEUM GOD.”
As silver is melted in the midst of the furnace, so shall ye be melted in the midst thereof; and ye shall know that I the LORD have poured out my fury upon you.
23 LEUM GOD El sifil kaskas nu sik ac fahk,
And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
24 “Mwet sukawil, fahk nu sin mwet Israel lah facl selos uh tiana mutal. Ke ma inge nga ac akkeokye ke kasrkusrak luk.
Son of man, say unto her, Thou [art] the land that is not cleansed, nor rained upon in the day of indignation.
25 Mwet kol inge elos oana lion ngutngut ma sreya monin kosro ma elos uniya uh. Mwet kol elos uniya mukul puspis, na elos eisla mani ac acn lalos. Ke akmas lalos inge elos akpusye katinmas uh.
[There is] a conspiracy of her prophets in the midst thereof, like a roaring lion ravening the prey; they have devoured souls; they have taken the treasure and precious things; they have made her many widows in the midst thereof.
26 Mwet tol uh kunaus ma sap luk ac wangin sunak lalos ke ma su mutal. Elos tia akilen inmasrlon ma mutal ac ma tia mutal. Elos tia luti lah mea inmasrlon ma nasnas ac ma su tia nasnas, ac elos pilesru len Sabbath. Ke sripa inge, mwet Israel elos tia sunakinyu.
Her priests have violated my law, and have profaned mine holy things: they have put no difference between the holy and profane, neither have they shewed [difference] between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from my sabbaths, and I am profaned among them.
27 Mwet wal fulat lun Israel elos oana kosro wolf ma seya kosro ma elos uniya uh. Elos orek akmas elos in mau kasrupi.
Her princes in the midst thereof [are] like wolves ravening the prey, to shed blood, [and] to destroy souls, to get dishonest gain.
28 Mwet palu elos okanla ma koluk inge oana ke mwet uh ac sang fasr sruloala sinka ke lohm uh in okanla acn munas kac. Aruruma elos liye uh tia pwaye, kas in palu lalos kikiap. Elos fahk mu elos tafu kas lun LEUM GOD Fulatlana, tuh nga, LEUM GOD, tiana kaskas nu selos.
And her prophets have daubed them with untempered [morter], seeing vanity, and divining lies unto them, saying, Thus saith the Lord GOD, when the LORD hath not spoken.
29 Mwet kasrup elos kutasrik ac pisrapasr. Elos oru koluk nu sin mwet sukasrup, ac aklalfonye mwetsac uh.
The people of the land have used oppression, and exercised robbery, and have vexed the poor and needy: yea, they have oppressed the stranger wrongfully.
30 Nga suk sie mwet ma ac ku in musaela pot uh, in tu ke acn ma pot uh raki we, ac in loango acn uh ke kasrkusrak luk apkuran in kunausla. Tusruktu wanginna mwet nga konauk.
And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it: but I found none.
31 Ke ma inge nga ac okoala kasrkusrak luk nu faclos, ac kunauselosla oana sie e ke ma elos orala.” LEUM GOD Fulatlana pa fahk ma inge.
Therefore have I poured out mine indignation upon them; I have consumed them with the fire of my wrath: their own way have I recompensed upon their heads, saith the Lord GOD.
