Isaiah 28
1 Woe to the crowne of pride, the drunkards of Ephraim: for his glorious beautie shall be a fading flowre, which is vpon the head of the valley of them that be fat, and are ouercome with wine.
We nu sin tokosrai lun Israel! Wolana lal efla oana losr ma oan fin sifen mwet kol sruhi lalos. Insuf filang lalos onola keng na, tusruktu elos sruhilana oan ac tia etalos.
2 Beholde, the Lord hath a mightie and strong hoste, like a tempest of haile, and a whirlewinde that ouerthroweth, like a tempest of mightie waters that ouerflowe, which throwe to the ground mightily.
Leum El akoela tari sie su ku ac fokoko in mweun nu selos — sie su fah tuku oana sie paka in af na yohk kosra, oana sie af matol ma oana sie sronot fungme ac afunla acn uh.
3 They shall be troden vnder foote, euen the crowne and the pride of the drunkards of Ephraim.
Filang lun mwet kol sruhi lalos ac fah lolongyuki.
4 For his glorious beautie shall be a fading floure, which is vpon the head of the valley of them that be fatte, and as the hastie fruite afore sommer, which when hee that looketh vpon it, seeth it, while it is in his hand, he eateth it.
Wolana lun mwet kol filang lalos fah wanginla, oana fahko se meet ke sak fig ke pacl la, sifeyukyak ac mongola ke tufahna mwesrla.
5 In that day shall the Lord of hostes be for a crowne of glory, and for a diademe of beautie vnto the residue of his people:
Sie len ac tuku ke LEUM GOD Kulana El ac fah oana sie losr wolana nu sin mwet lal su moulla.
6 And for a spirite of iudgement to him that sitteth in iudgement, and for strength vnto them that turne away the battell to the gate.
El ac fah sang ngunin nununku suwohs nu sin mwet nununku, ac akpulaikyalos su liyaung mutunpot lun siti in lain mwet lokoalok.
7 But they haue erred because of wine, and are out of the way by strong drinke: the priest and the prophet haue erred by strong drinke: they are swallowed vp with wine: they haue gone astraye through strong drinke: they faile in vision: they stumble in iudgement.
Finne mwet palu ac mwet tol, elos arulana sruhi, oru elos fahsr tukulkul. Yokla nim wain ac mwe nim ku, oru elos nukanulosla ac fahsr toptop. Mwet palu elos arulana sruhi ac tia kalem ke aruruma ma God El supu, ac mwet tol elos arulana sruhi ac tia ku in oru nununku suwohs nu ke mwe elya lun mwet uh.
8 For all their tables are full of filthy vomiting: no place is cleane.
Tepu ma elos muta kac afla ke woht, ac wangin acn nasnas lula fac.
9 Whome shall he teache knowledge? and whome shall he make to vnderstand the thinges that hee heareth? them that are weyned from the milke, and drawen from the breastes.
Elos torkaskas keik ac fahk, “Ku El nunku mu su El luti uh? Su enenu kas lal? Ma na nu sin tulik fusr ma tufahna liktitla!
10 For precept must be vpon precept, precept vpon precept, line vnto line, line vnto line, there a litle, and there a litle.
Ma na fisrasr pa El luti nu sesr: El kalweni kais sie leta, lain nu ke lain, mwe luti nu ke mwe luti.”
11 For with a stammering tongue and with a strange language shall he speake vnto this people.
Kowos fin tia porongeyu, na God El ac supwaot kutu mwetsac su orekmakin kas sakirik ma kowos tia kalem kac in luti kowos.
12 Vnto whome hee saide, This is the rest: giue rest to him that is weary: and this is the refreshing, but they would not heare.
El kena akwoye kowos ac sot mongla nu suwos nukewa, a kowos srunga porongal.
13 Therefore shall the worde of the Lord be vnto them precept vpon precept, precept vpon precept, line vnto line, line vnto line, there a litle and there a litle, that they may goe, and fall backward, and be broken, and be snared, and be taken.
Pa pwanang LEUM GOD El ac kalweni kais sie leta, lain nu ke lain, ac mwe luti nu ke mwe luti. Na kowos fah tukulkul yen nukewa kowos fahsr we. Kowos ac fah kinkineta, sremla ke kwasrip, ac utukla nu in sruoh.
14 Wherefore, heare the worde of the Lord, ye scornefull men that rule this people, which is at Ierusalem.
Inge, kowos mwet enum su leum fin mwet inge in acn Jerusalem, porongo ma LEUM GOD El fahk.
15 Because ye haue said, We haue made a couenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement: though a scourge runne ouer, and passe through, it shall not come at vs: for we haue made falshood our refuge, and vnder vanitie are we hid, (Sheol h7585)
Kowos konkin mu kowos orala sie wuleang yurin misa, ac kowos insesela yurin mwet in facl sin mwet misa. Kowos nunku mu mwe ongoiya ac fah aliki kowos ke pacl se ac tuku, mweyen kowos lulalfongi ke kikiap ac kutasrik lowos in loangekowos. (Sheol h7585)
16 Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I will laye in Zion a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation. Hee that beleeueth, shall not make haste.
Pa inge ma LEUM GOD Fulatlana El fahk: “Nga likiya sie pwelung in Zion ma oakwuki ku. Nga filiya sie eot insruwasrik saok ac ku kac, ac kas inge simla fac: ‘Lulalfongi se su ku el oayapa mongfisrasr.’
17 Iudgement also will I laye to the rule, and righteousnesse to the balance, and the haile shall sweepe away the vaine confidence, and the waters shall ouerflowe the secret place.
Nununku suwohs pa mwe srikasrak nu fin pwelung uh, ac pwaya pa mwe srikasrak nu ke siska ah, tenyak nu lucng.” Af yohk kosra fah pokla kikiap nukewa ma kowos lulalfongi, ac sronot ac fah kunausla acn kowos lulalfongi in wikla we.
18 And your couenant with death shalbe disanulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand: when a scourge shall runne ouer and passe through, then shall ye be trode downe by it. (Sheol h7585)
Wuleang ma kowos orala yurin misa ac fah sisila, ac insesela lowos yurin mwet in facl lun misa fah ikilyukla wanginla ku la. Ke mwe ongoiya lulap ac tuhme, ac fah afinkowosi ac kunauskowosla. (Sheol h7585)
19 When it passeth ouer, it shall take you away: for it shall passe through euery morning in the day, and in the night, and there shalbe onely feare to make you to vnderstand the hearing.
Ac fah kalkalwen in pokkowosla ke lotutang nukewa. Kowos ac fah keokkin ke len ac fong. Kais sie kas sin God me ac fah mwe aksangeng yohk nu suwos!
20 For the bed is streight that it can not suffice, and the couering narowe that one can not wrappe himselfe.
Kowos ac fah oana mukul se in soakas se inge: mwe oan kial fototola elan asrosrelik fac, ac kaot lal oasriksrikla elan afinilya kac.
21 For the Lord shall stand as in mount Perazim: hee shall be wroth as in the valley of Gibeon, that he may do his worke, his strage worke, and bring to passe his acte, his strange acte.
LEUM GOD El ac fah mweun in oana El tuh oru Fineol Perazim ac infahlfal lun Gibeon, Elan ku in orala ma El nunku in oru, finne mukuikui lal uh sie liki na ma mwet uh tawi. El fah aksafye orekma lal su mwet uh tia ku in kalem kac.
22 Nowe therefore be no mockers, least your bondes increase: for I haue heard of the Lord of hostes a consumption, euen determined vpon the whole earth.
Nimet isrun kas in sensenkakin nga sot nu suwos! Kowos fin isrun, ac fah upala nu suwos in kaingkunla. Nga lohng pwapa lun LEUM GOD Kulana in kunausla mutunfacl nufon se inge.
23 Hearken ye, and heare my voyce: hearken ye, and heare my speach.
Porongo ma nga fahk uh, ac lohang nu ke ma nga fahk nu suwos.
24 Doeth the plowe man plowe all the day, to sowe? doeth he open, and breake the clots of his ground?
Wangin mwet ima kalwenina in akfisrasrye acn in ima lal ac tia yukwiya.
25 When he hath made it plaine, wil he not then sowe the fitches, and sowe cummin, and cast in wheat by measure, and the appointed barly and rye in their place?
Ke pacl se el akoela fohk uh wo, na el yukwiya fiten mahsrik oana dill ac cumin. El yukwi tah in wheat ac barley, ac ke sisken ima lal el yukwi kutu pac kain fita.
26 For his God doeth instruct him to haue discretion, and doeth teach him.
El etu lah el ac oru orekma lal fuka, mweyen God El lotel.
27 For fitches shall not be threshed with a threshing instrument, neither shall a cart wheele be turned about vpon the cummin: but ye fitches are beaten out with a staffe, and cummin with a rod.
El tia orekmakin sak toasr in puokla fiten dill ku fiten cumin; a el orekmakin sak mulala ac fal lupa.
28 Bread corne when it is threshed, hee doeth not alway thresh it, neither doeth the wheele of his cart still make a noyse, neither will he breake it with the teeth thereof.
El ac tia puok na puok wheat uh nwe ke na mukutkuti, a el etu lah el ac srungulla kolo uh ke el patok sie mwe wiwa fac in mau tia itungya wheat uh.
29 This also commeth from the Lord of hostes, which is wonderfull in counsell, and excellent in workes.
Lalmwetmet inge nukewa tuku sin LEUM GOD Kulana. Lemlem ma God El oru uh lalmwetmet, ac pacl nukewa safla tuh na wo.
