Isaiah 14
1 [But] Yahweh will act mercifully toward the Israeli people; he will choose [the people of] Israel [to be his people again], and he will allow them to [return here and] live in their own land again. Then people from [many] other countries will come here and unite with the Israeli people.
LEUM GOD El ac sifilpa pakoten nu sin mwet Israel, ac sifil sulelosla in mwet lal sifacna. El ac fah lela elos in sifilpa muta in facl selos, ac mwet in mutunfacl saya ac fah tuku ac muta yorolos we.
2 People of other nations will help them to return to their [own] land, and those who come from other countries will (work for/become the servants of) the Israeli people. Those who captured people of Israel will be captured by Israeli soldiers, and the people of Israel will rule over the people who [previously] oppressed them.
Mutunfacl puspis fah kasru mwet Israel in folok nu in facl se LEUM GOD El tuh sang nu selos, ac mutunfacl inge ac fah mwet kohs in kulansupu mwet Israel. Elos su tuh kutangla Israel meet, ac fah kutangyukla sin Israel, ac mwet Israel ac fah leum faclos su akkeokyalos meet.
3 Some day Yahweh will free you [Israeli people] from suffering and trouble and from being afraid, and from being cruelly treated as slaves [MTY].
LEUM GOD El ac fah sang nu sin mwet Israel mongla liki ngal ac keok lalos, ac liki orekma upa ma akkohsyeyuk elos in oru.
4 When that happens, you will make fun of the King of Babylon by saying this: “You treated us cruelly, but that has ended! Your insolently causing others to suffer is finished!
Ke El ac oru ma inge El mu elos in aksruksrukye tokosra Babylon ac fahk: “Tokosra sulallal sac el ikori! El ac tia sifilpa akkeokye kutena mwet!
5 You evil ruler, Yahweh will get rid of your power, and you will oppress people no longer!
LEUM GOD El sisla ku lun mwet kol koluk,
6 You attacked people many times because you were very angry with them, and you subdued/conquered [other] nations by causing them to suffer endlessly.
su nuna kasrkusrak ac akkohsye mwet uh, ac tiana tui in kalyei mutunfacl ma elos kutangla.
7 [But soon] everything will be quiet and peaceful on the earth. Everyone [PRS] will sing [again]!
Inge faclu nufon muta in mongla ac misla, ac mwet nukewa wowoyak on ke engan.
8 [It will be as though] even the trees in the forests will joyfully sing this song, the cyprus/pine [trees] and the cedar [trees] in Lebanon will sing it: ‘You (have been overthrown/are no longer a ruler), and now no one comes to get rid of us [MET].’
Sak fir ac sak cedar in acn Lebanon wi enganak ke sripen tokosra sac wanginla, ouinge wanginla mwet ac sifil pakelosi!
9 The dead people are [PRS] are eagerly waiting for you to come to the place where they are. The spirits of the world leaders will be delighted to welcome you; those who were kings of many nations [before they died] will stand up [to welcome you]. (Sheol h7585)
“Facl lun mwet misa akola in paing tokosra Babylon. Inut lalos su tuh oasr ku yoro fin faclu elos mukuikuiyak. Ngunin tokosra ma misa elos tukakek liki tron lalos. (Sheol h7585)
10 They will all shout to you [together], ‘Now you are as weak as we are!’
Elos nukewa pang nu sel ac fahk, ‘Inge kom munas oana kut! Kom sie sesr!
11 You were very proud and powerful, [but all] that ended when you died, along with the sounds of harps [being played in your palace]. [Now in your grave] maggots will be under you [like a sheet] [MET], and worms will cover you [like a blanket] [MET]. (Sheol h7585)
Kom tuh akfulatyeyuk ke pusren on ke harp, tusruktu inge kom oasr in facl sin mwet misa. Ulac uh pa mwe oan kiom, ac kaot lom pa wet.’” (Sheol h7585)
12 You have [disappeared from the earth like] [MET] a star which has fallen from the sky; you [were very well-known] [like] [MET] the morning star [which is seen by everyone]; you destroyed [many] nations, but now you have been destroyed.
O kom su itu in lotutang, kom putatla liki inkusrao! In pacl meet ah kom kutangla mutunfacl puspis, a inge sisila kom nu infohk uh.
13 You [proudly] said to yourself, ‘I will ascend to heaven, to my throne above God’s stars. I will rule on the mountain where [the gods] gather together, far in the north.
Kom tuh nunku kom in fanyak nu inkusrao ac likiya tron lom lucng liki itu ma fulat oemeet. Kom tuh nunku mu kom ac muta oana tokosra se fineol soko in acn epang, yen god uh toeni we.
14 I will ascend above the clouds and become like the highest/greatest god!’
Kom tuh fahk mu kom ac fanyak nu lucng fin pukunyeng uh, in oana El su Kulana.
15 [But you were not able to do that]; instead, you were carried down to your grave, and you went to the place where the dead people are. (Sheol h7585)
Tusruktu tia ouinge, a ituki kom nu yen loallana in facl sin mwet misa. (Sheol h7585)
16 The [other dead] people there stare at you; they wonder what happened to you. [They say], ‘Is this the man who caused the earth to shake and caused the [people in many] kingdoms to tremble?
Mwet misa fah mangelik ac suikomi. Elos ac siyuk, “Ya pa inge mwet se ma osrokak faclu ac oru tokosrai uh rarrar?
17 Is this the man who [tried to] cause the world to become a desert, who conquered its cities and did not allow the people whom he captured to return to their homes?’
Ya pa inge mwet se su kunausla siti puspis ac ekulla faclu nu ke sie acn mwesis? Ya pa inge mwet se su tiana aksukosokye mwet kohs lal, ku fuhlelosla in folok nu yen selos?”
18 All the kings of the earth [who have died] were greatly honored when they were buried,
Tokosra nukewa lun faclu elos oan in kulyuk kato lalos,
19 but your [corpse will] not be buried; it will be thrown away like [SIM] a worthless branch [of a tree]. Your corpse will be under a heap of other corpses of soldiers that were killed by [their enemies’] swords, and [their corpses] were not buried; you will be with those who have gone down to the stony ground in a big pit.
a wangin kulyuk lom, ac mano misa lom sisila in oan kulawi. Afyufi ke monin mwet anwuki ke mweun, ac welulos na sisila nu in sie laf loal inmasrlon eot uh ma mwet uh lolongya.
20 Your [corpse] will not be buried because you have destroyed your nation and have caused your people to be killed. The descendants of wicked people [like you] will never be honored again.
Mweyen kom kunausla facl sum ac onela mwet lom sifacna, kom ac fah tia pukpuki oana tokosra ngia. Wangin sin sou koluk lom ac fah esamyuk.
21 [People will say], ‘Slaughter this man’s children because of the sins that their ancestors committed! Do not allow them to become rulers and conquer [all the nations in] the world, and fill the world with the cities [that they rule]!’”
Lela akmas uh in mutawauk! Wen nukewa nutin tokosra se inge fah misa ke sripen ma koluk lun mwet matu lalos. Wangin selos ac leumi faclu ku musaela siti puspis fac.
22 [This is what] the Commander of the armies of angels says: “I [myself] will cause Babylon to be conquered. I will get rid of Babylon and its people and their descendants.
LEUM GOD Kulana El fahk, “Nga ac fah mweuni acn Babylon ac arulana kunausla acn we. Nga ac fah tia likiya kutena ma in oan we — wangin siefanna mwet ac painmoulla, finne tulik ku mwet matu. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.
23 I will cause Babylon to be a place where owls live, a place full of swamps; I will get rid of it completely [as though] [MET] I were sweeping it with a broom. [That is what I], the Commander of the armies of angels, say.”
Nga fah ekulla acn Babylon nu ke sie acn furarrar, ac won owl ac fah muta we. Nga fah imonla acn we ke sie burum su ac burumela ma nukewa. Nga, LEUM GOD Kulana, pa fahk ma inge.”
24 The Commander of the armies of angels has [also] solemnly promised this: “The things that I have planned will surely happen [DOU].
LEUM GOD Kulana El oru sie wulela ku ac fahk: “Ma nga lumahla tari fah sikyak. Ma nga nunkala in oru, ac fah orekla.
25 [When the army of] Assyria is in my land [of Israel], I will crush them. [It will be as though] I will trample them on my mountains. My people will no longer be the slaves [MET] of the people of Assyria; [it will be as though] [MET] I will take away the burdens that are on their shoulders.
Nga ac kunausla mwet Assyria in facl sik Israel, ac longolosi fineol sik. Nga ac tulala mwet luk liki mwe utuk toasr lun mwet Assyria, ac liki ma upa elos enenu in polong.
26 I have a plan for everyone on the earth, a plan to show my power [MTY] to punish all the nations.
Pa inge lemlem luk nu ke faclu, ac nga asroela pouk in kalyei mutunfacl puspis.”
27 [I], the Commander of the armies of angels, have spoken, and no one can [RHQ] change my mind. When I raise my fist [to strike Assyria], no one [RHQ] will be able to stop me [from doing that].”
LEUM GOD Kulana El wotela tari in oru ouinge. El asroela paol in kalyei, ac wangin sie ku in ikolilya.
28 I received this message [from Yahweh] during the year that King Ahaz died:
Pa inge kas in fahkak ma fwackelik ke yac se Tokosra Ahaz el misa.
29 You people of Philistia, do not rejoice that the enemy army [MET] that attacked you has been defeated and that their king is dead. He was [as dangerous as] [MET] a snake, but there will be another king, who will be more [dangerous] than a cobra; he will be [like] [MET] a quick-moving poisonous snake.
Mwet Philistia, sak in sringsring soko ma sang uni kowos kaptelik, tusruktu wangin sripa kowos in engan. Ke soko wet ac misa, soko pacna wet ac tuku koluk lukel. Sie atro lun soko wet ac sawulla soko dragon sohksok.
30 Those of my people who are very poor will take care of their flocks of sheep, and the needy people will lie down safely, but I will cause you people [of Philistia] who are still alive [DOU] to die from famine.
LEUM GOD El ac fah kite mwet sukasrup inmasrlon mwet lal, ac El ac oru elos in muta in misla. Tusruktu El ac supwama sie sracl na upa nu fowos mwet Philistia, ac El ac fah tia lela kutena suwos in moulla kac.
31 [So], you people of Philistia, wail at the gates of your cities! You should be extremely afraid, because [a very powerful army] will come from the north [to attack you]; [their chariots will stir up the dust like] [MET] a cloud of smoke. Each of their soldiers is ready to fight.
Siti nukewa in acn Philistia, kowos in wowoyak tung ac suk kasru. Kowos nukewa in sangeng ac rarrar! Sie pukun kutkut pa tuku epang me — sie un mwet mweun su wangin mwet sangengtot inmasrlolos.
32 If messengers [from Philistia] come to us [Israeli people], this is what we must [RHQ] tell them: “Yahweh has established Jerusalem, [not Philistia], and his people who are oppressed will be safe inside [the walls of] Jerusalem.”
Kut ac topuk fuka mwet utuk kas ma tuku Philistia me nu yorosr? Kut ac fahkang nu selos lah LEUM GOD El musaeak Zion, ac mwet lal su akkeokyeyuk fah konauk moul misla we.
