Isaiah 47
1 LEUM GOD El fahk, “Babylon, fani liki tron lom, Ac muta fin kutkut infohk uh. Meet kom oana sie virgin, sie siti ma soenna kutangyukla, A inge monum tia sifil fisrasrsrasr ac fwel! Inge kom sie mutan kohs.
“Go down and sit in the dust, O Virgin Daughter of Babylon. Sit on the ground without a throne, O Daughter of Chaldea! For you will no longer be called tender or delicate.
2 Furokak eot in ilil flao! Eisla nuknuk afinyen motom! Sarukla nuknuk kato lom. Olak sikut lom an ac tupalla infacl uh!
Take millstones and grind flour; remove your veil; strip off your skirt, bare your thigh, and wade through the streams.
3 Mwet uh ac liye lah kom koflufol; Elos fah liye ke kom akpusiselyeyuk ac mwekinla. Nga ac oru foloksak luk, ac wangin mwet ac tulokinyuwi.”
Your nakedness will be uncovered and your shame will be exposed. I will take vengeance; I will spare no one.”
4 God mutal lun Israel El aksukosokyekutla — Inel pa LEUM GOD Kulana.
Our Redeemer—the LORD of Hosts is His name— is the Holy One of Israel.
5 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sin Babylon, “Muta in lohsr uh ac mislana. Mwet uh ac tia sifil pangon kom kasra lun mutunfacl uh!
“Sit in silence and go into darkness, O Daughter of Chaldea. For you will no longer be called the queen of kingdoms.
6 Nga tuh kasrkusrak sin mwet luk. Nga tia sifil oralos oana mwet luk. Nga fuhlelosi nu inpoum, Ac kom tiana pakomutalos. Finne mwet matu, kom arulana akkeokyalos.
I was angry with My people; I profaned My heritage, and I placed them under your control. You showed them no mercy; even on the elderly you laid a most heavy yoke.
7 Kom nunku mu kom ac kasra nwe tok, Oru wangin nunkeyen ma inge sum Lah ac mau fuka saflaiya.
You said, ‘I will be queen forever.’ You did not take these things to heart or consider their outcome.
8 “Porongo ma se inge, kom su lungse mwe pwar Ac nunku mu moul lom an oakwuk ac wanginna sensen kac. Kom fahk mu kom fulat oana God, Ac wangin sie oana kom. Kom nunku mu kom ac tiana katinmasla, Ku pulakin keok ke sripen tulik nutum uh wanginla.
So now hear this, O lover of luxury who sits securely, who says to herself, ‘I am, and there is none besides me. I will never be a widow or know the loss of children.’
9 Tusruktu in kitin pacl na, ke len sefanna, Ma inge kewa fah sikyak nu sum. Kom finne susfa ac orek inutnut, Mukul tomom ac tulik nutum uh ac fah wanginla.
These two things will overtake you in a moment, in a single day: loss of children, and widowhood. They will come upon you in full measure, in spite of your many sorceries and the potency of your spells.
10 “Arulana wangin fosrnga lom ke ma koluk lom; Kom nunku mu wangin sie ac ku in liye kom. Lalmwetmet ac etauk lom kiapwekomla, Ac kom sifacna nunku mu kom God — Wangin sie saya oana kom.
You were secure in your wickedness; you said, ‘No one sees me.’ Your wisdom and knowledge led you astray; you told yourself, ‘I am, and there is none besides me.’
11 Mwe ongoiya ac fah tuku nu fom, Ac inutnut lom an tia ku in sikulya. Musalla ac fah sa na in sun kom, Sie musalla yohk ma kom tiana nunku mu ac sikyak!
But disaster will come upon you; you will not know how to charm it away. A calamity will befall you that you will be unable to ward off. Devastation will happen to you suddenly and unexpectedly.
12 Sruokyana mwe inutnut ac mwe susfa lom; Kom nuna orekmakin ma ingan oe ke kom fusr ah me. Sahp ac ku in kasrekom, Ku sahp kom ku in sang aksangengye mwet lokoalok lom.
So take your stand with your spells and with your many sorceries, with which you have wearied yourself from your youth. Perhaps you will succeed; perhaps you will inspire terror!
13 Wangin ku lom, kom finne eis kas in kasru Sin mwet su suiya itu uh, Ac kitalik pulan pacl uh fal nu ke ma elos liye inkusrao, Ac fahkak nu sum ma ac sikyak nu sum Ke malem nu ke malem. Sap mwet tuni ma oan yen engyeng uh ingan in tuku ac molikomla.
You are wearied by your many counselors; let them come forward now and save you— your astrologers who observe the stars, who monthly predict your fate.
14 “Elos ac fah oana mah pao, Ma sie e ac fah furreak! Elos ac tia pac ku in sifacna molelosla. Firir sac ac fah arulana fol nu selos, Tia e in langlung se.
Surely they are like stubble; the fire will burn them up. They cannot deliver themselves from the power of the flame. There will be no coals to warm them or fire to sit beside.
15 Pa na ingan luman kasru kom ac eis sin Mwet tuni ma oan yen engyeng uh, su kom muta lolngok yoro in moul lom nufon. Elos nukewa ac som liki kom ac fahsr innek lalos sifacna, Ac wangin sie selos fah lula in molikomla.”
This is what they are to you— those with whom you have labored and traded from youth— each one strays in his own direction; not one of them can save you.
