Joel 3
1 For, behold, in those days and in that time, when I will have converted the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem,
LEUM GOD El fahk, “In pacl sac, nga fah folokonak Ma wo puspis lun Judah ac Jerusalem.
2 I will gather all the Gentiles, and will lead them into the valley of Jehoshaphat. And there I will dispute with them over my people, and over Israel, my inheritance, for they have scattered them among the nations and have divided my land.
Nga fah eisani mutunfacl nukewa Ac usalosme nu Infahlfal lun Nununku. Ingo nga fah nununkalos Ke ma nukewa elos tuh oru nu sin mwet luk. Elos akfahsryelik mwet Israel nu in mutunfacl saya, Ac kitalik Israel, facl sik.
3 And they have cast lots over my people; and the boy they have placed in the brothel, and the girl they have sold for wine, so that they might drink.
Elos susfa in konauk lah Mutunfacl su ac eis mwet sruoh. Elos moli mutan kosro ke tulik mukul, Ac moli wain ke tulik mutan.
4 Truly, what is there between you and me, Tyre and Sidon and all the distant places of the Philistines? How will you take vengeance on me? And if you were to revenge yourselves against me, I would deliver a repayment to you, quickly and soon, upon your head.
“Tyre, Sidon, ac Philistia nufon, mea kowos srike in oru nu sik uh? Ya kowos srike in folokin molin ma se nu sik? Fin pwaye, nga ac sa na folokonot!
5 For you have carried away my silver and gold. And my desirable and most beautiful, you have taken into your shrines.
Kowos eisla silver ac gold luk, ac usla mwe kasrup luk nu in tempul lowos.
6 And you, sons of Judah and sons of Jerusalem, you have sold the sons of the Greeks, so that you might drive them far from their own territory.
Kowos usla mwet Judah ac Jerusalem loesla liki facl selos sifacna, ac kukakunulosyang nu sin mwet Greek.
7 Behold, I will raise them up from the place into which you have sold them, and I will turn back your retribution on your own head.
Inge nga fah usalosme liki acn nukewa ma kowos kukakunulosla nu we. Nga ac oru nu suwos oana ke kowos tuh oru nu selos.
8 And I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hands of the sons of Judah, and they will sell them to the Sabeans, a distant nation, for the Lord has spoken.
Nga fah oru tuh mwet Judah in moli wen nutuwos ac acn nutuwos, ac elos ac fah kukakunulosla nu sin mwet Sabean, sie acn oan loessula. Nga, LEUM GOD, fahk ouinge.
9 Proclaim this among the Gentiles: “Sanctify a war, raise up the strong. Approach, ascend, all men of war.
“Kowos in fahkelik kas inge inmasrlon mutunfacl uh: ‘Akola nu ke mweun. Solani mwet ku nukewa; Usani mwet mweun lowos ac takla fahsrot.
10 Cut your ploughs into swords and your hoes into spears. Let the weak say, ‘For I am strong.’
Tamla mutun osra in pukpuk nutuwos an nu ke cutlass, Ac mitmit nutuwos an nu ke osra in mweun. Finne mwet munas, elos in wi pac mweun.
11 Break out and advance, all nations of the world, and gather together. There the Lord will cause all your strong ones to meet death.”
Mutunfacl nukewa su raunikutla, Kowos sulaklak fahsru, Ac tukeni nu ke infahlfal uh.’” O LEUM GOD, supwama un mwet mweun lom in wi lainulos.
12 Let them arise and ascend to the valley of Jehoshaphat. For there I will sit, so as to judge all the nations of the world.
“Mutunfacl nukewa enenu in akola Ac tuku nu Infahlfal lun Nununku. Ingo, nga LEUM GOD ac fah nununku Mutunfacl ingan nukewa.
13 Send forth the sickles, because the harvest has matured. Advance and descend, for the press is full, the pressing room is overflowing. For their malice has been increasing.
Elos arulana koluk; Pakelosla oana wheat Ke pacl in kosrani. Futfutungya oana kowos futungya grape uh In nien fut wain, Nwe ke sessesla kahk.”
14 Nations, nations in the valley of being cut to pieces: for the day of the Lord fittingly takes place in the valley of being cut to pieces.
Tausin nu ke tausin mwet Oasr Infahlfal lun Nununku. Acn we pa len lun LEUM GOD Fah sa tuku.
15 The sun and the moon have been darkened, and the stars have withdrawn their splendor.
Faht ac malem lohsrlosrani, Ac itu uh tila saromrom.
16 And the Lord will roar from Zion and utter his voice from Jerusalem. And the heavens and the earth will be moved. And the Lord will be the hope of his people and the strength of the sons of Israel.
LEUM GOD El ngutngut Fineol Zion me; Pusracl ngirngir Jerusalem me, oana pusren pulahl; Faclu ac inkusrao kusrusr, Tusruktu, El fah loangela mwet lal.
17 And you will know that I am the Lord your God, dwelling on Zion, my holy mountain. And Jerusalem will be holy, and strangers will not cross through it anymore.
“Na kowos mwet Israel, fah etu lah nga pa LEUM GOD lowos. Nga muta Zion, inging mutal sik. Jerusalem fah sie siti mutal. Mwet sac fah tiana sifil kutangulla.
18 And it will happen, in that day, that the mountains will drip sweetness, and the hills will flow with milk. And the waters will pass through all the rivers of Judah. And a fountain will go forth from the house of the Lord, and it will irrigate the desert of thorns.
In pacl sac, ima in grape ac fah afunla fineol uh, Ac cow uh fah osralik fin inging nukewa: Infacl nukewa in Judah fah sessesla ke kof. Sie unon in kof ac fah sororla liki Tempul lun LEUM GOD, Ac aksroksrokye Infahlfal Acacia.
19 Egypt will be in desolation, and Edom will be a wilderness destroyed, because of what they have unfairly done to the sons of Judah, and because they have shed innocent blood in their land.
“Egypt ac fah ekla sie acn mwesis, Ac Edom sie acn sikiyukla, Mweyen elos tuh mweuni acn lun Judah Ac onela mwet we finne wangin mwatalos.
20 And Judea will be inhabited forever, and Jerusalem for generation upon generation.
Tusruktu, ac fah oasr na mwet muta Judah ac Jerusalem nwe tok.
21 And I will cleanse their blood, which I had not cleansed. And the Lord will remain in Zion.
Nga fah foloksak kaclos su anwuki; Nga fah kai mwet ma onelosla. Ac nga, LEUM GOD, fah muta Fineol Zion.”
