< Isaiah 45 >

1 LEUM GOD El sulella Cyrus elan tokosra. El srisrngilya in kutangla mutunfacl pus; El supwalla in eisla wal in tokosra lukelos. LEUM GOD El ac ikasla mutunpot lun siti uh nu sel. Ac El fahk nu sel Cyrus,
The LORD says to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have held to subdue nations before him and strip kings of their armor, to open the doors before him, and the gates shall not be shut:
2 “Nga sifacna fah akoela inkanek lom, Ac akfwelyela eol uh ac inging uh. Nga fah fukulya mutunpot bronze Ac koteya osra ma sang laki.
“I will go before you and make the rough places smooth. I will break the doors of bronze in pieces and cut apart the bars of iron.
3 Nga fah sot nu sum wek saok ma oan in acn lohsr ac lukma; Na kom fah etu lah nga pa LEUM GOD Ac lah God lun Israel El pangon kom ke inem.
I will give you the treasures of darkness and hidden riches of secret places, that you may know that it is I, the LORD, who calls you by your name, even the God of Israel.
4 Nga srisrngikomi in kasrel Israel, mwet kulansap luk, Mutanfahl se su nga sulela. Nga ac fah sot nu sum sunak lulap Kom finne tia eteyu.
For Jacob my servant’s sake, and Israel my chosen, I have called you by your name. I have given you a title, though you have not known me.
5 “Nga LEUM GOD; wangin sie pac god sayuk. Nga fah sot nu sum ku ma kom enenu an Kom finne tia eteyu.
I am the LORD, and there is no one else. Besides me, there is no God. I will strengthen you, though you have not known me,
6 Nga oru ma inge tuh mwet nukewa faclu — Kutulap lac nwe roto — Fah etu lah nga LEUM GOD, Ac lah wangin pac sie god saya.
that they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is no one besides me. I am the LORD, and there is no one else.
7 Nga oralana kewa kalem ac lohsr; Ac nga use na kewa mwe insewowo ac mwe ongoiya. Nga, LEUM GOD, oru ma inge nukewa.
I form the light and create darkness. I make peace and create calamity. I am the LORD, who does all these things.
8 Nga fah oru tuh suwoswos in putati inkusrao me oana af; Faclu ac fah ikakla in eis, Na ac fah farengla ke sukosok ac nununku suwohs. Nga, LEUM GOD, fah oru ma inge in sikyak.”
Rain, you heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness. Let the earth open, that it may produce salvation, and let it cause righteousness to spring up with it. I, the LORD, have created it.
9 Ya sie tup kle ku in akukuin nu sin mwet se ma oralla uh — Tup se ma oana tup nukewa saya uh? Ya kle uh ku in siyuk sin mwet orek tup se lah mea el oru uh? Ya tup sac ku in torkaskas mu mwet se oralla uh wangin etu lal?
Woe to him who strives with his Maker— a clay pot among the clay pots of the earth! Shall the clay ask him who fashions it, ‘What are you making?’ or your work, ‘He has no hands’?
10 Ya oasr mwet ku in fahk nu sin papa tumal ac nina kial, “Efu ku komtal oreyula ange?”
Woe to him who says to a father, ‘What have you become the father of?’ or to a mother, ‘What have you given birth to?’”
11 LEUM GOD, God mutal lun Israel, El su lumahla pacl fahsru, El fahk: “Wangin suwohs lom in kusen siyuk sik ke tulik nutik, Ku in fahk nu sik ma nga in oru!
The LORD, the Holy One of Israel and his Maker says: “You ask me about the things that are to come, concerning my sons, and you command me concerning the work of my hands!
12 Nga pa orala faclu Ac orala mwet uh in muta fac. Ke ku luk, nga asroelik kusrao; Nga pa nununku faht, malem, ac itu uh.
I have made the earth, and created man on it. I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens. I have commanded all their army.
13 Nga sifacna pa purakulak Cyrus elan mukuila In akfahsrye pwapa luk, ac in aksuwosyela ma tafongla. Nga fah aksuwosyela inkanek nukewa el fahsr we. El ac sifilpa musai Jerusalem, siti luk, Ac aksukosokyela mwet luk su muta in sruoh. Wangin mwet molel ku sang molin eyeinse elan oru ma inge.” LEUM GOD Kulana pa fahk ma inge.
I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will make all his ways straight. He shall build my city, and he shall let my exiles go free, not for price nor reward,” says the LORD of Armies.
14 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sin Israel, “Mwe kasrup lun Egypt ac Ethiopia ac fah ma lom, Ac mwet loeska in Seba ac fah mwet kohs lom. Elos ac fah kapir ke sein ac fahsr tukum. Elos ac fah pasrla nu sum ac sifacna fahk, ‘God El oasr yurum — El mukena God.
The LORD says: “The labor of Egypt, and the merchandise of Ethiopia, and the Sabeans, men of stature, will come over to you, and they will be yours. They will go after you. They shall come over in chains. They will bow down to you. They will make supplication to you: ‘Surely God is in you; and there is no one else. There is no other god.
15 God lun Israel, su molela mwet lal, El sie God su sifacna okanulla.
Most certainly you are a God who has hidden yourself, God of Israel, the Savior.’”
16 Elos nukewa su orala ma sruloala fah mwekin; Elos nukewa ac fah akmwekinyeyuk.
They will be disappointed, yes, confounded, all of them. Those who are makers of idols will go into confusion together.
17 Tusruktu Israel el moliyukla sin LEUM GOD, Ac kutangla lal oan ma pahtpat; Mwet lal ac fah tiana akmwekinyeyuk.’”
Israel will be saved by the LORD with an everlasting salvation. You will not be disappointed nor confounded to ages everlasting.
18 LEUM GOD El orala kusrao — El na pa God! El lumahla ac orala faclu — El orala in okak ac kawil. El tia orala tuh in sie acn mwesis, A sie acn mwet uh ku in muta we. El pa fahk, “Nga pa LEUM GOD Ac wangin pac sie god sayuk.
For the LORD who created the heavens, the God who formed the earth and made it, who established it and did not create it a waste, who formed it to be inhabited says: “I am the LORD. There is no other.
19 Nga tia kaskas in lukma, Ku okanla sripa luk. Nga tia sapkin mwet Israel In sukyu in sie acn mwesis. Nga pa LEUM GOD, ac nga fahk ma pwaye. Nga oru in kalem ma su suwohs.”
I have not spoken in secret, in a place of the land of darkness. I did not say to the offspring of Jacob, ‘Seek me in vain.’ I, the LORD, speak righteousness. I declare things that are right.
20 LEUM GOD El fahk, “Fahsreni nu sie, kowos nukewa su Kaingla liki kais sie mutunfacl suwos. Fahsru utyak nu ke pacl in nununku! Mwet su fahsr inkanek uh ac kolak ma sruloala kihl lalos, Ac pre nu sin god ma tia ku in molelosla — Mwet ingan wangin na pwaye etu lalos!
“Assemble yourselves and come. Draw near together, you who have escaped from the nations. Those have no knowledge who carry the wood of their engraved image, and pray to a god that cannot save.
21 Fahsru ac akkalemye sripa lowos ye mutun mwet nununku. Lela mwet su suk kasru in alolngoki sie sin sie. Su tuh palyeak in pacl somla ma ac sikyak uh? Ya tia nga, LEUM GOD, su molela mwet lal? Wangin god saya.
Declare and present it. Yes, let them take counsel together. Who has shown this from ancient time? Who has declared it of old? Have not I, the LORD? There is no other God besides me, a just God and a Savior. There is no one besides me.
22 “Mwet faclu nufon, Forma nu sik, tuh kowos in moliyukla. Nga mukena pa God — wangin pac sie saya.
“Look to me, and be saved, all the ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no other.
23 Wulela luk uh pwaye — Ac fah tiana ekla. Nga fulahk nu suwos ke Inek sifacna: Mwet nukewa fah tuku ac sikukmutunte ye mutuk, Ac wulela ku tuh elos ac pwayena nu sik.
I have sworn by myself. The word has gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and will not be revoked, that to me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall take an oath.
24 “Elos ac fah fahk lah suwoswos ac ku Koneyukyak yuruk mukena; A elos nukewa su srungayu fah arulana mwekin.
They will say of me, ‘There is righteousness and strength only in the LORD.’” Even to him will men come. All those who raged against him will be disappointed.
25 Nga, LEUM GOD, fah molela fwilin tulik natul Jacob nukewa, Ac elos fah kaksakinyu.
All the offspring of Israel will be justified in the LORD, and will rejoice!
