< Jeremiah 22 >

1 Thus said the Lord, Goe downe to the house of the King of Iudah, and speake there this thing,
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik nga in tufokla nu in lohm sin tokosra lun Judah, ac fahk kas inge:
2 And say, Heare the worde of the Lord, O King of Iudah, that sittest vpon the throne of Dauid, thou and thy seruants, and thy people that enter in by these gates.
“Lohng kas lun LEUM GOD, O tokosra lun Judah su muta fin tron lal David — kom, ac mwet pwapa fulat lom, ac mwet Jerusalem nukewa su ilyak ke mutunpot inge.
3 Thus saith the Lord, Execute ye iudgement and righteousnes, and deliuer the oppressed from the hande of the oppressor, and vexe not the stranger, the fatherlesse, nor the widowe: doe no violence, nor sheade innocent blood in this place.
Nga, LEUM GOD, sapkin nu suwos in oru ma suwohs ac pwaye. Karinganang mwet ma pisreyukla ma la liki inpoun mwet pisrapasr. Nimet akkolukye ku akkeokye mwetsac, mwet mukaimtal ac katinmas, oayapa nimet uniya mwet wangin mwata in acn mutal se inge.
4 For if ye do this thing, then shall the kings sitting vpon the throne of Dauid enter in by the gates of this House, and ride vpon charets, and vpon horses, both he and his seruants and his people.
Kowos fin oru oana ma nga sapkin, na ac fah oasr tokosra tuku ke fwilin tulik natul David nwe tok. Elos, ac mwet fulat lalos ac mwet nukewa lalos saya, fah uti-utyak ke mutunpot lun inkul fulat ke chariot ac fin horse uh.
5 But if ye will not heare these wordes, I sweare by my selfe, saith the Lord, that this House shalbe waste.
Tusruktu kowos fin tia akos ma nga sapkin inge, na nga fulahk ke Inek sifacna lah inkul fulat se inge fah sikiyukla. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.
6 For thus hath the Lord spoken vpon the Kings house of Iudah, Thou art Gilead vnto me, and the head of Lebanon, yet surely I wil make thee a wildernes and as cities not inhabited,
“In nunak luk, inkul fulat sin tokosra lun Judah oasku oana acn Gilead, ac oana eol in acn Lebanon. Tusruktu nga ac oru tuh in sie acn oan musalla ma wangin mwet muta we.
7 And I will prepare destroyers against thee, euery one with his weapons, and they shall cut downe thy chiefe cedar trees, and cast them in the fire.
Nga ac supwala mwet in kunausya. Elos ac us tuhla lalos ac pakiya sru cedar kato we, ac sisla nu in e uh.
8 And many nations shall passe by this citie, and they shall say euery man to his neighbour, Wherefore hath the Lord done thus vnto this great citie?
“Na toko, mwet in mutunfacl puspis fah fahsr aliki ac asiyuki sie sin sie lah efu ku nga, LEUM GOD, oru ouinge nu ke siti pwengpeng se inge.
9 Then shall they answere, Because they haue forsaken the couenant of the Lord their God, and worshipped other gods, and serued them.
Na elos fah topuk mu mweyen kowos fahsr sayen wuleang lowos yurin God lowos ke kowos alu ac kulansupu god saya.”
10 Weepe not for the dead, and be not moued for them, but weepe for him that goeth out: for he shall returne no more, nor see his natiue countrey.
Mwet Judah, nimet tungel Tokosra Josaiah; Kowos in tia eoksra ke misa lal. A kowos in arulana tung kacl Joahas, wen natul. Elos ac usalla, ac el ac tia sifil foloko. El ac tiana sifilpa liye acn el isusla we.
11 For thus saith ye Lord, As touching Shallum the sonne of Iosiah King of Iudah, which reigned for Iosiah his father, which went out of this place, he shall not returne thither,
LEUM GOD El fahk kacl Joahas su aolla Josiah, papa tumal, in tokosra Judah, “El som liki acn inge, ac el ac tiana sifil foloko.
12 But he shall die in the place, whither they haue ledde him captiue, and shall see this lande no more.
El ac misa in facl se elos usalla nu we, ac el ac tia sifil liye facl se inge.”
13 Wo vnto him that buildeth his house by vnrighteousnesse, and his chambers without equitie: he vseth his neighbour without wages, and giueth him not for his worke.
We nu sin mwet se su musai lohm sel ke sesuwos Ac akyokye ke inkanek kutasrik, Su akkohsye mwet in facl sel in orekma nu sel Ac tia sang molin orekma lalos.
14 He saith, I will build me a wide house and large chambers: so he will make him selfe large windowes, and feeling with cedar, and paint them with vermilion.
We nu sin mwet se ma fahk, “Nga ac musaela sie lohm lulap nu sik sifacna Ac oru tuh infukil lucng uh in yohk.” Ouinge el orala winto in lohm sel Ac sinkaeak acn loac ke sak cedar, Ac sroalela ke sroal srusra.
15 Shalt thou reigne, because thou closest thy selfe in cedar? did not thy father eate and drinke and prosper, when he executed iudgement and iustice?
Ya ma inge ac oru tuh kom in sie tokosra wo Kom fin musa lohm ke sak cedar Ma wo liki lohm sin mwet ngia? Papa tomom el insewowo ke moul lal nufon. Orekma lal pwaye ac suwohs pacl nukewa, Ac el kapkapak in ma nukewa el orala.
16 When he iudged the cause of the afflicted and the poore, he prospered: was not this because he knewe me, saith the Lord?
El oru nununku suwohs nu sin mwet sukasrup, Na ma nukewa fahsr pac wo nu sel. Pa inge kalmen etu ke LEUM GOD.
17 But thine eyes and thine heart are but only for thy couetousnesse, and for to sheade innocent blood, and for oppression, and for destruction, euen to doe this.
A kom sukna ma ac wo nu sum sifacna; Kom uniya mwet wangin mwata Ac arulana aklalfonye mwet lom. LEUM GOD pa fahk ma inge.
18 Therefore thus saith the Lord against Iehoiakim, the sonne of Iosiah king of Iudah, They shall not lament him, saying, Ah, my brother, or ah, sister: neither shall they mourne for him, saying, Ah, lord, or ah, his glorie.
Ouinge LEUM GOD El fahk kacl Tokosra Jehoiakim lun Judah, wen natul Josiah, “Wangin mwet ac fah mwemelil ke misa lal, ku fahk mu, ‘Pakomuta kawuk se luk! Fuka koluk in mau!’ Wangin mwet ac fah wowoyak ac tung kacl ac fahk, ‘Leum luk, We! Tokosra, We!’
19 He shalbe buryed, as an asse is buryed, euen drawen and cast foorth without the gates of Ierusalem.
Ac fah orek nu sel oana misa lun soko donkey: Ac fah amala el Ac sisila likin mutunpot Jerusalem.”
20 Goe vp to Lebanon, and cry: showte in Bashan and crye by the passages: for all thy louers are destroyed.
Mwet Jerusalem, fahla nu Lebanon ac wowoyak, Fahla nu facl Bashan ac tung; Som ac wowoyak infulan eol Moab, Mweyen kutangyukla mutunfacl nukewa su kasrekom ke pacl in mweun.
21 I spake vnto thee when thou wast in prosperitie: but thou saidest, I will not heare: this hath bene thy maner from thy youth, that thou wouldest not obey my voyce.
LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sum ke pacl kom srak mut, A kom tia lungse porongo. Pa ingan ouiyom in moul lom nufon — Kom tiana akos LEUM GOD.
22 The wind shall feede all thy pastors, and thy louers shall goe into captiuitie: and then shalt thou be ashamed and confounded of al thy wickednesse.
Mwet kol lom ac fah ukukla ke eng; Mwet kasrekom in pacl in mweun ac utukla nu in sruoh. Siti sum ac fah aklusrongtenyeyuk ac akmwekinyeyuk Ke sripen ma koluk nukewa kom orala.
23 Thou that dwellest in Lebanon, and makest thy nest in the cedars, howe beautiful shalt thou be when sorowes come vpon thee, as the sorowe of a woman in trauaile?
Kom mongla wo in lohm sum orekla ke sak cedar ma utuku Lebanon me; Tusruktu ac fah mwe pakomuta na yohk nu sum ke pacl se ngal upa ac sun kom — Ngal oana ngal lun sie mutan isus.
24 As I liue, saith the Lord, though Coniah the sonne of Iehoiakim King of Iudah, were the signet of my right hand, yet would I plucke thee thence.
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Tokosra Jehoiachin, wen natul Tokosra Jehoiakim lun Judah, “Oana ke nga pa God moul, fin kom pa ring lun tokosra ma oan lac po layot sik, nga ac faiskomla
25 And I will giue thee into the hande of them that seeke thy life, and into the hande of them, whose face thou fearest, euen into the hand of Nebuchad-nezzar king of Babel, and into the hande of the Caldeans.
ac eiskomyang nu sin mwet ma lungse unikomi, su kom sangeng se. Nga ac eiskomyang nu sel Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar lun Babylonia ac un mwet mweun lal.
26 And I will cause them to cary thee away, and thy mother that bare thee, into another countrey, where ye were not borne, and there shall ye die.
Nga ac liskomla ac nina kiom ke ku luk tuh komtal in mwet sruoh in sie facl ma komtal kewa tia isusla we, ac komtal ac fah misa we.
27 But to the lande, whereunto they desire to returne, they shall not returne thither.
Komtal ac fah kena sifilpa liye facl se inge, tusruktu komtal ac fah tiana foloko.”
28 Is not this man Coniah as a despised and broken idole? or as a vessell, wherein is no pleasure? wherefore are they caryed away, hee and his seede, and cast out into a lande that they knowe not?
Ac nga fahk, “Ya Tokosra Jehoiachin el oana soko sufa fokelik ma sisila ac wangin mwet enenu? Na efu ku el, ac tulik natul, utukla nu in sruoh nu ke sie facl ma elos tiana etu?”
29 O earth, earth, earth, heare the worde of the Lord.
O fahl Judah, fahl Judah, fahl Judah! Porongo ma LEUM GOD El fahk:
30 Thus saith the Lord, Write this man destitute of children, a man that shall not prosper in his dayes: for there shall be no man of his seede that shall prosper and sit vpon the throne of Dauid, or beare rule any more in Iudah.
“Filiya ke ma simusla lah ac fah wangin tulik natul Jehoiachin. Ac fah wangin ma wo el orala in pacl lal. Wangin sin fwilin tulik natul Ac fah aolulla ke tron lal David In leum fin acn Judah. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
