Ezekiel 20
1 And it came to pass in the seventh year, in the fifth month, the tenth day of the month: there came men of the ancients of Israel to inquire of the Lord, and they sat before me.
In len se aksingoul ke malem aklimekosr in yac akitkosr ke sruoh lasr, kutu sin mwet kol lun Israel elos tuku nu yuruk in siyuk ke ma lungse lun LEUM GOD, ac elos muta ye mutuk.
2 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
Na LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sik ac fahk,
3 Son of man, speak to the ancients of Israel, and say to them: Thus saith the Lord God: Are you come to inquire of me? As I live, I will not answer you, saith the Lord God.
“Kom, mwet sukawil moul la, kaskas nu sin mwet inge ac fahkang lah nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, fahk ouinge: Ya pwaye lah kowos tuku in siyuk ke ma lungse luk? Ke sripen nga pa God moul, nga ac tia lela kowos in siyuk kutena ma sik. Nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, pa fahk ma inge.
4 If thou judgest them, if thou judgest, son of man, declare to them the abominations of their fathers.
“Mwet sukawil, ya kom akola in oru nununku lom nu selos? Kwal, oru. Akesmakinyalos ke orekma srungayuk papa matu tumalos ah tuh oru.
5 And say to them: Thus saith the Lord God: In the day when I chose Israel, and lifted up my hand for the race of the house of Jacob: and appeared to them in the land of Egypt, and lifted up my hand for them, saying: I am the Lord your God:
Fahkang nu selos ma nga fahk inge. Ke pacl se nga tuh sulela Israel ah, nga tuh orala sie wulela yorolos, ac nga sifacna fahkyuyak nu selos in facl Egypt. Nga tuh fahk mu: Nga pa LEUM GOD lowos.
6 In that day I lifted up my hand for them, to bring them out of the land of Egypt, into a land which I had provided for them, flowing with milk and honey, which excelleth amongst all lands.
Na nga wulela nu selos mu nga fah usalosme liki fahl Egypt ac kololosla nu in sie facl su nga sulela in ma lalos, sie facl mut ac kasrup fohk we, sie facl su wo liki facl nukewa.
7 And I said to them: Let every man cast away the scandals of his eyes, and defile not yourselves with the idols of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.
Nga tuh fahk elos in sisla ma sruloala srungayuk ma elos lungse, ac in tia akfohkfokyalos ke elos alu nu sin god sutuu lun Egypt, mweyen nga pa LEUM GOD lalos.
8 But they provoked me, and would not hearken to me: they did not every man cast away the abominations of his eyes, neither did they forsake the idols of Egypt: and I said I would pour out my indignation upon them, and accomplish my wrath against them in the midst of the land of Egypt.
Tuh pa elos pilesreyu ac tia lungse lohngyu. Elos tia sisla ma sruloala srungayuk lalos, ku fuhleak god lun mwet Egypt. Nga tuh akola in sang elos in pula nufon fulen kasrkusrak luk nu selos.
9 But I did otherwise for my name’s sake, that it might not be violated before the nations, in the midst of whom they were, and among whom I made myself known to them, to bring them out of the land of Egypt.
Tuh nga tiana oru, mweyen ac tuh akkolukye Inek, ke sripen nga tuh fahkak nu sin mwet Israel ye mutun mwet elos muta inmasrlo lah nga ac fah usalosla liki acn Egypt.
10 Therefore I brought them out from the land of Egypt, and brought them into the desert.
“Ouinge nga usalosla liki acn Egypt nu yen mwesis.
11 And I gave them my statutes, and I shewed them my judgments, which if a man do, he shall live in them.
Nga sang ma sap luk nu selos ac lotelos oakwuk luk, su ac sang moul nu selos nukewa su akos.
12 Moreover I gave them also my sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them: and that they might know that I am the Lord that sanctify them.
Nga orala tuh karinginyen len Sabbath luk in sie mwe akul ke wulela inmasrlosr, in akesmakinyalos lah nga, LEUM GOD, pa oru elos mutal.
13 But the house of Israel provoked me in the desert: they walked not in my statutes, and they cast away my judgments, which if a man do he shall live in them: and they grievously violated my sabbaths. I said therefore that I would pour out my indignation upon them in the desert, and would consume them.
Tusruktu elos pilesreyu pac yen mwesis. Elos kunausla ma sap luk ac srunga oakwuk luk, su ac sang moul nu selos nukewa su akos. Elos arulana aklusrongtenye len Sabbath, na nga akola in sang elos in pulakin kasrkusrak upa luk ingo yen mwesis, ac in kunauselosla.
14 But I spared them for the sake of my name, lest it should be profaned before the nations, from which I brought them out, in their sight.
Tuh nga tia oru, mweyen ac tuh akpusiselye Inek inmasrlon mutunfacl uh su liye ke nga kololos mwet Israel liki acn Egypt.
15 So I lifted up my hand over them in the desert, not to bring them into the land which I had given them flowing with milk and honey, the best of all lands.
Ouinge nga orala sie fulahk yen mwesis mu nga ac tia usalosla nu ke facl se su nga sang selos ah — sie facl mut ac kasrup fohk we, sie facl su wo liki facl nukewa.
16 Because they cast off my judgments, and walked not in my statutes, and violated my sabbaths: for their heart went after idols.
Nga orala fulahk sac mweyen elos srunga oru ma nga sapkin, ac kunausla ma sap luk, ac aklusrongtenye len Sabbath — elos lungse alu nu ke ma sruloala lalos liki in alu nu sik.
17 Yet my eye spared them, so that I destroyed them not: neither did I consume them in the desert.
“Tusruktu, nga tuh pakomutalos, ac sulela ngan tia onelosla ke elos muta yen mwesis.
18 And I said to their children in the wilderness: Walk not in the statutes of your fathers, and observe not their judgments, nor be ye defiled with their idols:
Ouinge nga sensenkakin mwet fusr inmasrlolos ac fahk, ‘Nik kowos orekmakin ma sap ma orekla sin mwet matu lowos, ac nimet fahsr tukun ouiya koluk lalos, ku sifacna akfohkfokye kowos ke ma sruloala lalos.
19 I am the Lord your God: walk ye in my statutes, and observe my judgments, and do them.
Nga LEUM GOD lowos. Kowos in akos ma sap luk ac oakwuk luk.
20 And sanctify my sabbaths, that they may be a sign between me and you: and that you may know that I am the Lord your God.
Akmutalye len Sabbath, tuh in sie akul ke wuleang inmasrlok ac kowos, tuh kowos fah etu lah nga LEUM GOD lowos.
21 But their children provoked me, they walked not in my commandments, nor observed my judgments to do them: which if a man do, he shell live in them: and they violated my sabbaths: and I threatened to pour out my indignation upon them, and to accomplish my wrath in them in the desert.
“Tusruktu fwil sac oayapa likkeke lainyu. Elos seakos ma sap luk ac tia oru oakwuk luk su ac sang moul nu selos nukewa su akos. Elos aklusrongtenye len Sabbath, pwanang nga tuh akola in oru elos in pula kuiyen kasrkusrak luk uh ke elos oasr yen mwesis, ac in onelosi nufon.
22 But I turned away my hand, and wrought for my name’s sake, that it might not be violated before the nations, out of which I brought them forth in their sight.
Tuh nga tiana orala, mweyen ac tuh akpusiselye Inek ye mutun mutunfacl su liye ke nga usalosme mwet Israel liki facl Egypt.
23 Again I lifted up my hand upon them in the wilderness, to disperse them among the nations, and scatter them through the countries:
Na nga sifilpa orala sie wulela yen mwesis uh. Nga wuleang mu nga ac akfahsryeloselik nu fin faclu nufon.
24 Because they had not done my judgments, and had cast off my statutes, and had violated my sabbaths, and their eyes had been after the idols of their fathers.
Nga oru ouinge mweyen elos srunga oru ma nga sapkin, ac seakos ma sap luk, ac aklusrongtenye len Sabbath, ac alu nu ke ma sruloala ma mwet matu lalos tuh kulansupu.
25 Therefore I also gave them statutes that were not good, and judgments, in which they shall not live.
“Ouinge nga sang nu selos ma sap su tia wo, ac oakwuk su ac tia sang moul nu selos.
26 And I polluted them in their own gifts, when they offered all that opened the womb, for their offences: and they shall know that I am the Lord.
Nga fuhleang nu selos in sifacna akfohkfokye moul lalos ke mwe sang lalos, ac nga lela elos in kisakin wen se emeet natulos. Ma inge ma in kalyaelos ac in akkalemye nu selos lah nga pa LEUM GOD.
27 Wherefore speak to the house of Israel, O son of man, and say to them: Thus saith the Lord God: Moreover in this also your fathers blasphemed me, when they had despised and contemned me;
“Ke ma inge, mwet sukawil, fahk nu sin mwet Israel ma nga, LEUM GOD Fulatlana, fahk nu selos: Pa inge sie pac lumah ma papa matu tumalos uh akkasrkusrakyeyu kac ke elos tia moul suwohs ye mutuk.
28 And I had brought them into the land, for which I lifted up my hand to give it them: they saw every high hill, and every shady tree, and there they sacrificed their victims: and there they presented the provocation of their offerings, and there they set their sweet odours, and poured forth their libations.
Nga usalosme nu in facl se su nga wuleang mu nga ac sang lalos. Ke elos liye tohktok fulat ac sak folfol insroa, elos orek kisa in acn inge nukewa. Elos oru nga kasrkusrak ke mwe kisa firir, ac mwe sang lalos, ac mwe kisa keng, ac wain ma elos use tuh in mwe kisa lalos nu sik.
29 And I said to them: What meaneth the high place to which you go? and the name thereof was called High-place even to this day.
Nga siyuk selos lah ma ya acn fulat elos som nu we inge? Ouinge in pacl sac me, pangpang acn we ‘Acn Fulat.’
30 Wherefore say to the house of Israel: Thus saith the Lord God: Verily, you are defiled in the way of your fathers, and you commit fornication with their abominations.
Inge fahkang nu sin mwet Israel ma nga fahk uh: Efu ku kowos sifil oru ma koluk ma mwet matu lowos uh tuh oru, ac ukwe na ma sruloala lalos?
31 And you defile yourselves with all your: idols unto this day, in the offering of your gifts, when you make your children pass through the fire: and shall I answer you, O house of Israel? As I live, saith the Lord God, I will not answer you.
Nwe misenge kowos srakna oru mwe sang ma mwet matu lowos oru meet ah, ac sifacna akfohkfokye kowos ke kowos alu nu ke ma sruloala ac kisai tulik nutuwos in e. Na kowos mwet Israel tiana tui in siyuk ke ma lungse luk! Ke sripen nga LEUM GOD Fulatlana ac nga pa God moul, nga fah tia lela kowos in siyuk kutena ma sik.
32 Neither shall the thought of your mind come to pass, by which you say: We will be as the Gentiles, and as the families of the earth, to worship stocks and stones.
Kowos wotela tari mu kowos in oana mutunfacl saya su alu nu ke sak ac eot. Tusruktu ac fah tiana ouinge.
33 As I live, saith the Lord God, I will reign over you with a strong hand, and with a stretched out arm, and with fury poured out.
“Ke sripen nga pa LEUM GOD Fulatlana ac nga God moul, nga akkalemye nu suwos lah in kasrkusrak luk, nga asroela pouk ac leum fowos ke ku luk nufon.
34 And I will bring you out from the people, and I will gather you out of the countries, in which you are scattered, I will reign over you with a strong hand, and with a stretched out arm, and with fury poured out.
Nga ac fahkak ku luk ac kasrkusrak luk nu suwos ke nga ac uskowoseni, ac folokinkowosme liki facl nukewa su kowos fahsrelik we.
35 And I will bring you into the wilderness of people, and there will I plead with you face to face.
Nga ac uskowosme nu ‘Yen Mwesis Lun Mutunfacl uh,’ ac ingo, ke kut ngetani nu sie, nga fah orala nununku luk keiwos.”
36 As I pleaded against your fathers in the desert of the land of Egypt; even so will I judge you, saith the Lord God.
LEUM GOD Fulatlana El fahk, “Nga ac nununkekowos in oana ke nga tuh nununku papa matu tomowos yen mwesis in acn Sinai.”
37 And I will make you subject to my sceptre, and will bring you into the bands of the covenant.
“Nga fah oru kolyuk ku luk fowos, ac oru kowos in akos wuleang luk.
38 And I will pick out from among you the transgressors, and the wicked, and will bring them out of the land where they sojourn, and they shall not enter into the land of Israel: and you shall know that I am the Lord.
Nga ac eisla mwet lokoalok ac mwet orekma koluk liki inmasrlowos. Nga ac eisalosla liki facl nukewa elos muta we inge. Tusruktu nga ac tia lela elos in foloko nu in facl Israel. Na kowos fah etu lah nga pa LEUM GOD.”
39 And as for you, O house of Israel: thus saith the Lord God: Walk ye every one after your idols, and serve them. But if in this also you hear me not, but defile my holy name any more with your gifts, and with your idols;
LEUM GOD Fulatlana El fahk, “Inge, kowos mwet Israel nukewa, fahsrot kulansupu ma sruloala lowos! Tuh nga fahkot lah tukun ma inge kowos enenu in akosyu, ac tia sifil akpusiselye Ine mutal luk ke kowos us mwe sang lowos nu ke ma sruloala lowos.
40 In my holy mountain, in the high mountain of Israel, saith the Lord God, there shall all the house of Israel serve me; all of them I say, in the land in which they shall please me, and there will I require your firstfruits, and the chief of your tithes with all your sanctifications.
Ingo, fineol fulat ac mutal sik in acn Israel, kowos mwet Israel nukewa ac fah alu nu sik we. Nga ac fah insewowo suwos, ac nga fah soano tuh kowos in use mwe kisa lowos, ac mwe sang wolana ac mutal lowos nu sik.
41 I will accept of you for an odour of sweetness, when I shall have brought you out from the people, and shall have gathered you out of the lands into which you are scattered, and I will be sanctified in you in the sight of the nations.
Tukun nga folokinkowosme liki facl nukewa kowos fahsrelik we, ac eiskowoseni, nga ac insese in eis mwe kisa su kowos akosak, na mutunfacl uh ac fah liye lah nga mutal.
42 And you shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall have brought you into the land of Israel, into the land for which I lifted up my hand to give it to your fathers.
Ke nga folokinkowosme nu in facl Israel, facl se su nga tuh wuleang mu nga ac sang lun papa matu tomowos, na kowos ac fah etu lah nga pa LEUM GOD.
43 And there you shall remember your ways, and all your wicked doings with which you have been defiled; and you shall be displeased with yourselves in your own sight, for all your wicked deeds which you committed.
Kowos ac fah esamak ouiya koluk nukewa ma kowos oru ac akfohkfokye kowos sifacna kac. Kowos ac sifacna srungakowos ke sripen ma koluk nukewa kowos orala.
44 And you shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall have done well by you for my own name’s sake, and not according to your evil ways, nor according to your wicked deeds, O house of Israel, saith the Lord God.
Ouiya ma nga ac oru nu suwos mwet Israel, ac tia fal nu ke orekma koluk lowos, a ac fah fal nu ke Ine mutal luk. Ke ma inge kowos ac fah etu lah nga LEUM GOD.” LEUM GOD Fulatlana pa fahk ma inge.
45 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik,
46 Son of man, set thy face against the way of the south, and drop towards the south, and prophesy against the forest of the south field.
“Mwet sukawil, ngetot suwohs nu eir. Kaskas lain acn eir, ac palu lain insak eir.
47 And any to the south forest: Hear the word of the Lord: Thus saith the Lord God: Behold I will kindle a fire in thee, and will burn in thee every green tree, and every dry tree: the dame of the fire shall not be quenched: and every face shall be burned in it, from the south even to the north.
Fahk nu ke insak lun acn eir in lohng ma LEUM GOD Fulatlana El fahk uh: Liye, nga fah tanak sie e, su ac fah esukak sak nukewa sunom, finne ma moul ku ma masla. Wangin kutena ma ac ku in konela. Ac fah fahsrelik layen eir me nwe ke sun layen epang, ac mwet nukewa ac pula fulen fol kac.
48 And all flesh shall see, that I the Lord have kindled it, and it shall not be quenched.
Elos nukewa ac liye lah nga, LEUM GOD, pa tanak e sac, ac wangin sie ku in konela.”
49 And I said: Ah, ah, ah, O Lord God: they say of me: Doth not this man speak by parables?
Tusruktu, nga tia insese nu kac, na nga fahk, “LEUM GOD Fulatlana, nimet supweyu in fahkak kas ingan! Mwet nukewa tukakinyu mu elos tiana kalem ke kas in pupulyuk luk.”
