Isaiah 22
1 Kas in fahkak inge ma ke Infahlfal in Aruruma. Mea sikyak inge? Efu ku mwet nukewa in siti uh fanyak nu fin lohm selos uh?
The burden concerning the Valley of Vision. What aileth thee now, that thou art wholly gone up to the housetops,
2 Siti nufon se inge ngisyak, oayapa wohnak ke pusren engan. Mwet misa lowos elos tia anwuki ke elos mweun.
Thou that art full of uproar, a tumultuous city, a joyous town? Thy slain are not slain with the sword, nor dead in battle.
3 Mwet kol lowos nukewa kaing ac sruhu elos meet liki elos pisrik mwe pisr natulos.
All thy rulers are fled together, without the bow they are bound; all that are found of thee are bound together, they are fled afar off.
4 Filiyula nga in mukena muta eoksra ke mwet luk nukewa su misa. Nimet srike in akwoyeyu.
Therefore said I: 'Look away from me, I will weep bitterly; strain not to comfort me, for the destruction of the daughter of my people.'
5 Sie pacl in lofongla, musalsalu, ac fohsak lun Infahlfal in Aruruma pa inge, ac LEUM GOD Fulat ac Kulana El supwama ma inge nu facsr. Pot ke siti sesr fokfoki nu infohk uh, ac pusren mwet su tung in suk kasru lohngyuk oe inmasrlon eol uh me.
For it is a day of trouble, and of trampling, and of perplexity, from the Lord, the GOD of hosts, in the Valley of Vision; Kir shouting, and Shoa at the mount.
6 Mwet mweun lun facl Elam elos utuk mwe pisr ac kasrusr tuku fin horse. Mwet mweun lun acn Kir elos akoela tari mwe loang lalos.
And Elam bore the quiver, with troops of men, even horsemen; and Kir uncovered the shield.
7 Infahlfal wolana lun Judah nwanala ke chariot; mwet kasrusr fin horse elos tu likin mutunpot lun Jerusalem.
And it came to pass, when thy choicest valleys were full of chariots, and the horsemen set themselves in array at the gate,
8 Siti nukewa loangeyen acn Judah fukulyuki. Pacl se ma ingan sikyak ah, kowos tuh use kufwen mwe mweun liki acn ma oan we ah.
And the covering of Judah was laid bare, that thou didst look in that day to the armour in the house of the forest.
9 Kowos tuni pot lun Jerusalem in liye acn ma enenu in ononla, ac kowos karinganang kof ke lulu se ten ah.
And ye saw the breaches of the city of David, that they were many; and ye gathered together the waters of the lower pool.
10 Kowos oakla lohm in acn Jerusalem, ac ikruiya kutu, na eis eot kac in sang akkeye pot uh.
And ye numbered the houses of Jerusalem, and ye broke down the houses to fortify the wall;
11 Kowos tuh musai sie mwe neinyuk kof na lulap in siti uh, in nwanak kof ma sororma liki lulu in kof matu. Tusruktu kowos tiana lohang nu sin God su lumahla ma inge nukewa ke pacl loes somla, ac su oru in sikyak.
ye made also a basin between the two walls for the water of the old pool — but ye looked not unto Him that had done this, neither had ye respect unto Him that fashioned it long ago.
12 LEUM GOD Fulat ac Kulana El tuh pangon kowos in tung ac mwemelil, in mangsrasrala ac nokomang nuknuk yohk eoa.
And in that day did the Lord, the GOD of hosts, call to weeping, and to lamentation, and to baldness, and to girding with sackcloth;
13 Kowos tiana oru ma inge a kowos israsr ac orek kufwa. Kowos uniya sheep ac cow in kang, ac kowos numla wain. Kowos fahk, “Kut in mongo ac nimnim, pilani lutu kut ac misa.”
And behold joy and gladness, slaying oxen and killing sheep, eating flesh and drinking wine — 'Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we shall die!'
14 LEUM GOD Fulat ac Kulana El sifacna kaskas nu sik ac fahk, “Ma koluk se inge ac tiana nunak munas nu selos ke lusenna moul lalos. Nga, LEUM GOD Fulat ac Kulana, pa fahk ma inge.”
And the LORD of hosts revealed Himself in mine ears: Surely this iniquity shall not be expiated by you till ye die, saith the Lord, the GOD of hosts.
15 LEUM GOD Fulat ac Kulana El fahk nu sik nga in som nu yorol Shebna, mwet se ma liyaung inkul fulat sin tokosra, ac fahk nu sel,
Thus saith the Lord, the GOD of hosts: Go, get thee unto this steward, even unto Shebna, who is over the house:
16 “Mea kom oru ingan? Su lela nu sum in sifacna taflela kulyuk se lom in eot pe eol uh?
What hast thou here, and whom hast thou here, that thou hast hewed thee out here a sepulchre, thou that hewest thee out a sepulchre on high, and gravest a habitation for thyself in the rock?
17 Sahp yohk sripom, tusruktu LEUM GOD El ac srukkomyak ac tolkomla.
Behold, the LORD will hurl thee up and down with a man's throw; yea, He will wind thee round and round;
18 El ac srukkomyak oana sie ball ac siskomla nu in sie facl lulap. Kom ac misa we sisken chariot ma kom arulana filangkin. Kom sie mwe mwekin nu sin mwet in lohm sin mwet kacto lom.
He will violently roll and toss thee like a ball into a large country; there shalt thou die, and there shall be the chariots of thy glory, thou shame of the lord's house.
19 LEUM GOD El ac siskomla liki orekma fulat lom, ac eisla wal fulat lom.”
And I will thrust thee from thy post, and from thy station shalt thou be pulled down.
20 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Shebna, “Ke pacl ma ingan ac sikyak, nga ac sapla nu sin mwet kulansap luk, Eliakim wen natul Hilkiah.
And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah;
21 Nga fah nokmulang ke nuknuk oa ac mwe lohl lun leum, ac sang wal ac ku nukewa lom nu sel. El ac fah oana sie papa nu sin mwet Jerusalem ac mwet Judah.
And I will clothe him with thy robe, and bind him with thy girdle, and I will commit thy government into his hand; and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah.
22 Nga fah sang ku nukewa nu sel yal tokosra, su fwilin tulik natul David. Key nu ke acn fulat nukewa fah oan sel. Ma nukewa el ikasla wangin mwet fah kaliya, ac ma nukewa el kaliya wangin sie fah ikasla.
And the key of the house of David will I lay upon his shoulder; and he shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open.
23 Nga fah kaskilya in arulana ku, oana soko kwi osra sruokyen lohm nuknuk, na ke sripal sou lal nufon ac fah sunakinyuk.
And I will fasten him as a peg in a sure place; and he shall be for a throne of honour to his father's house.
24 “Tusruktu sou lal ac mwet ma el karingin ac fah mwe elya nu sel. Elos ac sripsripyak kacl oana tup ac pol sripsrip ke osra in sripsrip!
And they shall hang upon him all the glory of his father's house, the offspring and the issue, all vessels of small quantity, from the vessels of cups even to all the vessels of flagons.
25 Pacl se ma inge ac sikyak, osra in sripsrip soko ah ac tufwacla ac putatla. Na ac tufah pa ingan saflaiyen ma nukewa ma sripsrip kac.” LEUM GOD pa fahk ma inge.
In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall the peg that was fastened in a sure place give way; and it shall be hewn down, and fall, and the burden that was upon it shall be cut off; for the LORD hath spoken it.
