Isaiah 51

1 LEUM GOD El fahk, “Porongeyu, kowos su lungse moulla, Kowos su tuku nu yuruk in suk kasru. Nunku ke eot su kowos tuku kac me, Ac ke lufin eot ma tafleyukla kowos kac.

Give ear to me, you that follow that which is just, and you that seek the Lord: look unto the rock whence you are hewn, and to the hole of the pit from which you are dug out.

2 Nunku kacl Abraham, papa matu tomowos, Ac kacl Sarah, su oswekowosla. Ke pacl se nga tuh pangnol Abraham, srakna wangin tulik natul. Tusruktu nga akinsewowoyal ac sang tulik natul. Nga akpusye pac fwilin tulik natul.

Look unto Abraham your father, and to Sara that bore you: for I called him alone, and blessed him, and multiplied him.

3 “Nga ac fah akkalemye pakomuta luk nu sin Jerusalem, Nu selos nukewa su muta in siti lalos ma musalla. Acn we finne sie acn mwesis, nga fah oru tuh in sie ima, Oana ima se nga yukwiya Eden. Engan ac insewowo ac fah oasr we, Wi on in kaksak ac kulo nu sik.

The Lord therefore will comfort Sion, and will comfort all the ruins thereof: and he will make her desert as a place of pleasure, and her wilderness as the garden of the Lord. Joy and gladness shall be found therein, thanksgiving, and the voice of praise.

4 Porongeyu, mwet luk, Porongo ma nga fahk uh. Nga sang mwe luti luk nu sin mutunfacl pus; Ma sap luk fah sang kalem nu selos.

Hearken unto me, O my people, and give ear to me, O my tribes: for a law shall go forth from me, and my judgment shall rest to be a light of the nations.

5 Nga fah sa in tuku ac molelosla. Pacl in kutangla luk apkuranme. Nga sifacna fah leumi mutunfacl uh. Acn loessula soano nga in tuku. Elos tupan ke finsrak tuh nga in molelosla.

My just one is near at hand, my saviour is gone forth, and my arms shall judge the people: the islands shall look for me, and shall patiently wait for my arm.

6 Ngetak ac liye kusrao; ac liye pac faclu! Kusrao fah wanginla oana kulasr uh; Ac faclu fah kulawi oana nuknuk mahi uh, Ac mwet we nukewa fah misa oana loang uh. Tusruktu lango su nga ac use fah oanna nwe tok. Kutangla luk fah tiana safla.

Lift up your eyes to heaven, and look down to the earth beneath: for the heavens shall vanish like smoke, and the earth shall be worn away like a garment, and the inhabitants thereof shall perish in like manner: but my salvation shall be for ever, and my justice shall not fail.

7 “Porongeyu, kowos su etu ma suwohs, Ac su eis mwe luti luk ac oakiya insia. Nimet sangeng ke mwet uh angon kowos ac fahk kas in akkolukye kowos.

Hearken to me, you that know what is just, my people who have my law in your heart: fear ye not the reproach of men, and be not afraid of their blasphemies.

8 Elos ac wanginla oana nuknuk ma watil uh kangla. Tusruktu molela su nga use ac fah oan nwe tok. Kutangla luk ac fah oan ke fwil nu ke fwil.”

For the worm shall eat them up as a garment: and the moth shall consume them as wool: but my salvation shall be for ever, and my justice from generation to generation,

9 LEUM GOD, ngutalik ac kasrekut! Orekmakin ku lom ac molikutla; Orekmakin oana ke kom tuh oru in pacl oemeet ah. Kom pa tuh pakpakilya Rahab, wet lulap soko meoa, nu ke ip srisrik.

Arise, arise, put on strength, O thou arm of the Lord, arise as in the days of old, in the ancient generations. Hast not thou struck the proud one, and wounded the dragon?

10 Kom pac pa tuh akpaoyela meoa ah, Ac orala innek soko sasla inkof uh, Tuh elos su kom ac molela in ku in fahsr kac.

Hast not thou dried up the sea, the water of the mighty deep, who madest the depth of the sea a way, that the delivered might pass over?

11 Elos su kom tuh molela Fah sun acn Jerusalem ke engan. Elos fah alullul ac sasa ke engan. Elos ac fah engan ma pahtpat, Sukosokla liki asor ac sasao nwe tok.

And now they that are redeemed by the Lord, shall return, and shall come into Sion singing praises, and joy everlasting shall be upon their heads, they shall obtain joy and gladness, sorrow and mourning shall flee away.

12 LEUM GOD El fahk, “Nga pa akkeye kowos. Efu ku kowos in sangeng sin mwet ma sukawil moul la, Su ac sa na uli oana mah uh?

I, I myself will comfort you: who art thou, that thou shouldst be afraid of a mortal man, and of the son of man, who shall wither away like grass?

13 Ya kowos mulkunla LEUM GOD su orekowosla, Su laknelik kusrao, Ac oakiya pwelung lun faclu? Efu ku kowos in muta in sangeng pacl nukewa Ke folo lalos su akkeokye kowos — Elos su akola in kunauskowosla? Kaskusrak lalos tia ku in sifil tuku nu fowos.

And thou hast forgotten the Lord thy maker, who stretched out the heavens, and founded the earth: and thee hast been afraid continually all the day at the presence of his fury who afflicted thee, and had prepared himself to destroy thee: where is now the fury of the oppressor?

14 Ac tia paht, elos su muta in kapir ac fah aksukosokyeyukla. Elos ac moul arulana paht, Ac ac fah oasr na mongo nalos.

He shall quickly come that is going to open unto you, and he shall not kill unto utter destruction, neither shall his bread fail.

15 “Nga pa LEUM GOD lowos. Nga mokleak meoa Ac oru noa uh in ngirngir. Inek pa LEUM GOD Kulana!

But I am the Lord thy God, who trouble the sea, and the waves thereof swell: the Lord of hosts is my name.

16 Nga asroelik kusrao Ac oakiya pwelung lun faclu: Nga fahk nu sin mwet Jerusalem, ‘Kowos mwet luk! Nga asot tari mwe luti luk nu suwos, Ac nga loangekowos ke pouk.’”

I have put my words in thy mouth, and have protected thee in the shadow of my hand, that thou mightest plant the heavens, and found the earth: and mightest say to Sion: Thou art my people.

17 Jerusalem, ngutalik! Sifacna tukaskomyak ac tuyak! Kom numla tari cup in kaiyuk Su LEUM GOD El sot nu sum in numla ke sripen kasrkusrak lal; Kom tuh numla, oru kom tukulkul.

Arise, arise, stand up, O Jerusalem, which hast drunk at the hand of the Lord the cup of his wrath; thou hast drunk even to the bottom of the cup of dead sleep, and thou hast drunk even to the dregs.

18 Wangin mwet ac fah pwen kom, Wangin sie inmasrlon wen nutum Ac sruokya poum in kasrekom.

There is none that can uphold her among all the children that she hath brought forth: and there is none that taketh her by the hand among all the children that she hath brought up.

19 Oasr mwe ongoiya luo putati fom: Facl sum sikiyukla ke mweun, Ac mwet lom misa ke masrinsral. Wanginla mwet in pakomutom.

There are two things that have happened to thee: who shall be sorry for thee? desolation, and destruction, and the famine, and the sword, who shall comfort thee?

20 Ke insruwasrik in inkanek nukewa Mwet lom elos ikori ke munasla lalos. Elos oana deer ma srifusryuki sin mwet sruh kosro. Elos pulakin kuiyen kaskusrak lun God.

Thy children are cast forth, they have slept at the head of all the ways, as the wild ox that is snared: full of the indignation of the Lord, of the rebuke of thy God.

21 Kowos mwet keok in Jerusalem, Kowos su tukulkul oana mwet sruhi,

Therefore hear this, thou poor little one, and thou that art drunk but no with wine.

22 LEUM GOD lowos El loangekowos ac fahk, “Nga eisla cup se ma Nga tuh sot nu suwos ke nga kaskusrak ah. Kowos ac tia enenu in sifil nim Wain se ma oru kowos tukulkul.

Thus saith thy Sovereign the Lord and thy God, who will fight for his people: Behold I have taken out of thy hand the cup of dead sleep, the dregs of the cup of my indignation, thou shalt not drink it again any more.

23 Nga ac fah sang cup sac nu selos su tuh akkeokye kowos, Nu selos su oru kowos oan fin inkanek uh Na elos fahsr fowos oana infohk uh pa kowos.”

And I will put it in the hand of them that have oppressed thee, and have said to thy soul: Bow down, that we may go over: and thou hast laid thy body as the ground, and as a way to them that went over.
