< Jeremiah 10 >

1 Hear the word which Yahweh speaks to you, house of Israel!
Mwet Israel, porongo kas lun LEUM GOD nu suwos
2 Yahweh says, “Don’t learn the way of the nations, and don’t be dismayed at the signs of the sky; for the nations are dismayed at them.
fahkang: “Nikmet ukwe ouiya lun mutanfahl saya; Nimet fosrnga ke ma sakirik ma ac sikyak inkusrao, Mutanfahl saya finne tuninfong kac.
3 For the customs of the peoples are vanity; for one cuts a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman with the ax.
Alu lun mwet inge wangin sripa. Soko sak ac pakpuki insak uh, Na kihlyak ke kufwen sroasr lun mwet tufahl,
4 They deck it with silver and with gold. They fasten it with nails and with hammers, so that it can’t move.
Ac yunla ke silver ac gold. Osra pa sang sruokya In tia topla.
5 They are like a palm tree, of turned work, and don’t speak. They must be carried, because they can’t move. Don’t be afraid of them; for they can’t do evil, neither is it in them to do good.”
Kain ma sruloala inge oana luman mwet kikiap se ma kaskiyuki ke ima uh. Elos tia ku in kaskas. Enenu in utuk elos Mweyen elos tia ku in fahsr. Nimet sangeng selos. Elos tia ku in akkolukye kowos, Ac wangin pac ma wo elos ku in oru nu suwos.”
6 There is no one like you, Yahweh. You are great, and your name is great in might.
LEUM GOD, wangin sie oana kom. Kom kulana, Ac Inem fulat ac yoklana ku la.
7 Who shouldn’t fear you, King of the nations? For it belongs to you. Because among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their royal estate, there is no one like you.
Kom pa tokosra lun mutunfacl nukewa, na su ac tia sunakin kom? Fal in akfulatyeyuk kom. Wangin sie oana kom Inmasrlon mwet lalmwetmet nukewa lun mutunfacl uh, Ku inmasrlon kutena tokosra lalos.
8 But they are together brutish and foolish, instructed by idols! It is just wood.
Mwet nukewa su alu nu ke ma sruloala elos sulalkung ac lalfon. Mea elos ac ku in etala sin sie ma orekla ke sak?
9 There is silver beaten into plates, which is brought from Tarshish, and gold from Uphaz, the work of the engraver and of the hands of the goldsmith. Their clothing is blue and purple. They are all the work of skillful men.
Ma sruloala lalos nukla ke silver Spain me Ac ke gold Uphaz me, Orekla sin mwet usrnguk in sroasr. Elos nuknukyang ke nuknuk folfolnemnem ac sroninmutuk Orekla sin mwet orek nuknuk na usrnguk.
10 But Yahweh is the true God. He is the living God, and an everlasting King. At his wrath, the earth trembles. The nations aren’t able to withstand his indignation.
Tusruktu kom, LEUM GOD, pa God pwaye Ac kom God moul Ac tokosra ma pahtpat. Ke pacl se kom kasrkusrak, faclu kusrusr; Mutanfahl uh tia ku in muteng mulat lom. (
11 “You shall say this to them: ‘The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth will perish from the earth, and from under the heavens.’”
Kowos enenu in fahkang nu selos lah god ma tia orala faclu ac kusrao, ac fah kunausyukla. Elos fah wanginla liki acn nukewa fin faclu.)
12 God has made the earth by his power. He has established the world by his wisdom, and by his understanding has he stretched out the heavens.
LEUM GOD El orala faclu ke ku lal; El oakiya faclu ke lalmwetmet lal, Ac El asroelik kusrao ke etu lal.
13 When he utters his voice, the waters in the heavens roar, and he causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth. He makes lightnings for the rain, and brings the wind out of his treasuries.
Ke sap lal, kof lucng liki yen engyeng uh ngirngir; El orama pukunyeng uh liki saflaiyen faclu. El oru sarom in sarmelik in af uh Ac supwama eng uh liki nien filma lal.
14 Every man has become brutish and without knowledge. Every goldsmith is disappointed by his engraved image; for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them.
Ke mwet uh liye ma inge, elos akilen lupan lalfon ac nikin lalos sifacna. Elos su oru ma sruloala elos mwekinla, Mweyen god ma elos orala uh tia pwaye ac wangin moul la.
15 They are vanity, a work of delusion. In the time of their visitation they will perish.
Elos ma lusrongten ma fal in pilesreyuk. Elos ac fah kunausyukla pacl se LEUM GOD El ac tuku in nununkalos.
16 The portion of Jacob is not like these; for he is the maker of all things; and Israel is the tribe of his inheritance. Yahweh of Armies is his name.
God lal Jacob El tia oana ma inge. El pa orala ma nukewa, Ac El sulela mwet Israel elos in mwet lal. Inel pa LEUM GOD Kulana.
17 Gather up your wares out of the land, you who live under siege.
Mwet Jerusalem, apweni! Kuhlusyuki kowos!
18 For Yahweh says, “Behold, I will sling out the inhabitants of the land at this time, and will distress them, that they may feel it.”
LEUM GOD El ac siskowosla liki facl se inge. El ac itungkowosi nwe ke na wangin sie suwos lula. LEUM GOD pa fahk ma inge.
19 Woe is me because of my injury! My wound is serious; but I said, “Truly this is my grief, and I must bear it.”
Mwet Jerusalem elos wowoyak ac fahk, “Fuka lupan ongoiya uh! Kinet kacsr uh ac tiana mahla. A kut tuh nunku mu kut ac ku in muteng ma inge!
20 My tent has been destroyed, and all my cords are broken. My children have gone away from me, and they are no more. There is no one to spread my tent any more, to set up my curtains.
Lohm nuknuk sesr uh musalsalu; Sucl ma sang sruok uh wotelik. Tulik natusr nukewa fahsr liki kut; Wangin mwet lula in sifil tulokunak lohm nuknuk sesr; Wangin mwet in sripisrya mwe lisrlisr kac uh.”
21 For the shepherds have become brutish, and have not inquired of Yahweh. Therefore they have not prospered, and all their flocks have scattered.
Na nga topuk, “Mwet kol lasr elos lalfon; Elos tia siyuk kolyuk sin LEUM GOD. Pa inge sripa pwanang elos tia kapkapak, Ac mwet lasr uh fahsrelik.
22 The voice of news, behold, it comes, and a great commotion out of the north country, to make the cities of Judah a desolation, a dwelling place of jackals.
Porongo! Oasr pweng se tuku! Oasr sie mukuiyak lulap in sie mutunfacl epang; Mwet mweun we ac fah ekulla siti lun Judah nu ke sie acn mwesis, Nu ke acn in muta lun kosro lemnak uh.”
23 Yahweh, I know that the way of man is not in himself. It is not in man who walks to direct his steps.
LEUM GOD, nga etu lah wangin sie mwet sifacna kol inkanek lal, Wangin mwet sifacna nununku moul lal.
24 Yahweh, correct me, but gently; not in your anger, lest you reduce me to nothing.
LEUM GOD, aksuwosye mwet lom, Tusruktu nimet kom arulana upa nu sesr, Ku kai kut ke pacl kom kasrkusrak, Mweyen ac tuh pa ingan saflaiyen moul lasr.
25 Pour out your wrath on the nations that don’t know you, and on the families that don’t call on your name; for they have devoured Jacob. Yes, they have devoured him, consumed him, and have laid waste his habitation.
Furokla kasrkusrak lom nu fin mutunfacl ma tia etekom, Ac nu fin mwet su tia alu nu sum. Elos onela mwet lom. Elos kunauskutla na pwaye Ac likiya acn sesr in oan musalla.
