< Isaiah 7 >

1 Ke Tokosra Ahaz, wen natul Jotham ac nutin natul Uzziah, el leumi Judah, oasr sie mweun. Tokosra Rezin lun Syria, ac Tokosra Pekah, wen natul Remaliah lun Israel, elos tukeni som mweuni acn Jerusalem, tusruktu elos koflana sruokya.
It happened in the days of Ahaz the son of Jotham, the son of Uzziah, king of Judah, that Rezin the king of Aram, and Pekah the son of Remaliah, king of Israel, went up to Jerusalem to war against it, but they could not prevail against it.
2 Ke pweng uh sonol tokosra lun Judah lah un mwet mweun lun acn Syria elos sun tari acn Israel, el ac mwet lal nukewa arulana fosrngala, oru elos rarrar oana sak kusrusryak ke eng uh.
It was told the house of David, saying, "Aram is allied with Ephraim." His heart trembled, and the heart of his people, as the trees of the forest tremble with the wind.
3 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Isaiah, “Eisal Shear Jashub, wen nutum, ac fahla sonol Tokosra Ahaz. Kom ac konalak ke inkanek yen mwet orek nuknuk elos orekma we, ke saflaiyen laf in kof ma soror liki inlulu lucng ah me.
Then the LORD said to Isaiah, "Go out now to meet Ahaz, you, and Shearjashub your son, at the end of the conduit of the upper pool, on the highway of the Launderers' Field.
4 Fahk nu sel elan akngusrikye, oakwuki na muta, ac tia sensen ku fohsak. Mulat lal Tokosra Rezin ac mwet Syria, oayapa Tokosra Pekah, oana wosr luo ma oanna fofosr — tiana mwe sensen.
Tell him, 'Be careful, and keep calm. Do not be afraid, neither let your heart be faint because of these two tails of smoking firebrands, for the fierce anger of Rezin and Aram, and of the son of Remaliah.
5 Mwet Syria, wi mwet Israel ac tokosra lalos, tukeni orala sie pwapa koluk.
Because Aram, Ephraim, and the son of Remaliah, have plotted evil against you, saying,
6 Elos akola in mweuni Judah, ac aksangengye mwet we in welulosla lac, na elos ac akleumyauk wen se natul Tabeel elan tokosrala.
"Let's go up against Judah, and tear it apart, and let's divide it among ourselves, and set up a king in its midst, even the son of Tabeel."
7 “Tusruktu nga, LEUM GOD, fahkak lah ma se inge ac fah tiana sikyak.
This is what the LORD says: "It shall not stand, neither shall it happen."
8 Efu? Mweyen Syria el tia ku liki Damascus, siti lulap lal, ac Damascus el tia ku lukel Tokosra Rezin. Ac funu Israel, inmasrlon na yac onngoul limekosr ac fah arulana musalla acn we, tia sifil oaoa mu mutunfacl se pa el.
For the head of Aram is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin; and within sixty-five years Ephraim shall be broken in pieces, so that it shall not be a people;
9 Israel el tia ku liki Samaria, siti lulap lal, ac Samaria el tia pac ku lukel Tokosra Pekah. “Lulalfongi lowos fin tia oakwuki ku, kowos ac tia pac ku in okak.”
and the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remaliah's son. If you will not believe, surely you shall not be established.'"
10 LEUM GOD El supwala soko pac sap nu sel Ahaz,
The LORD spoke again to Ahaz, saying,
11 ac fahk, “Siyuk sin LEUM GOD lom Elan sot sie akul nu sum — ac ku in tuku liki acn loal faclu in facl sin mwet misa, ku liki acn fulat lucng inkusrao.” (Sheol h7585)
"Ask a sign of the LORD your God; ask it either in the depth, or in the height above." (Sheol h7585)
12 Na Ahaz el topuk, “Nga fah tiana siyuk ke sie mwe akul. Nga fah tiana srike LEUM GOD luk.”
But Ahaz said, "I will not ask, neither will I tempt the LORD."
13 Na Isaiah el fahk, “Inge porongeyu, kowos fwilin tulik natul David. Ma na koluk se ke kowos oru mwet uh in semutengla. Ya kowos ac oru God Elan semutengla pac?
He said, "Listen now, house of David: Is it not enough for you to try the patience of men, that you will try the patience of my God also?
14 Leum sifacna El ac fah sot sie akul nu suwos. Sie mutan fusr su pitutu el ac fah oswela sie wen, ac sang inel ‘Immanuel.’
Therefore the LORD himself will give you a sign. Look, the virgin will conceive, and bear a son, and they will call his name Immanuel.
15 Ke pacl se tulik sac matula, ac ku in sifacna sulela inmasrlon ma wo ac ma koluk, el ac fah nim milk ac mongo honey.
He shall eat curds and honey when he knows to refuse the evil, and choose the good.
16 Tusruktu meet liki pacl sacn, facl sin tokosra luo ma aksangengye kowos ingan ac fah wanginla mwet we.
For before the child knows to refuse the evil, and choose the good, the land whose two kings you abhor shall be forsaken.
17 “LEUM GOD El ac fah use nu fom, ac nu fin mwet lom ac nu fin sou in leum, len in ongoiya ma koluk liki na ma sikyak tukun pacl se tokosrai lun Israel sriyukla liki Judah — El ac fah use tokosra lun Assyria in lain kom.
The LORD will bring on you, on your people, and on your father's house, days that have not come, from the day that Ephraim departed from Judah; even the king of Assyria.
18 “Ke pacl sac ac tuku, LEUM GOD El ac osla nu sin mwet Egypt in tuku oana loang uh liki sungan infacl puspis yen loessula ke Infacl Nile, ac nu sin mwet Assyria in tuku liki facl selos oana loanginyeir uh.
It will happen in that day that the LORD will whistle for the fly that is in the uttermost part of the rivers of Egypt, and for the bee that is in the land of Assyria.
19 Elos ac osralik acn nukewa infahlfal uh ac ke luf inmasrlon eot uh, ac elos ac afunla sak nukewa oasr otoh kac oayapa sroan mah nukewa.
They shall come, and shall all rest in the desolate valleys, in the clefts of the rocks, on all thorn hedges, and on all pastures.
20 “Ke pacl sac, Leum El ac molema sie mwet kalkul lefahlo ke Infacl Euphrates — aok, tokosra fulat lun Assyria — su ac fah resaela alut lowos, aunsifowos ac monuwos nufon.
In that day the LORD will shave with a razor that is hired in the parts beyond the River, even with the king of Assyria, the head and the hair of the feet; and it shall also consume the beard.
21 “Ke pacl sac ac tuku, finne cow fusr sokofanna ac nani lukwa nutin mwet ima se,
It shall happen in that day that a man shall keep alive a young cow, and two sheep;
22 ac yolyak milk kaclos in akfalye enenu lal nukewa. Aok, mwet pu su painmoulla in facl sac fah oasr milk ac honey nalos.
and it shall happen, that because of the abundance of milk which they shall give he shall eat butter: for everyone will eat butter and honey that is left in the midst of the land.
23 “Ke pacl sac ac tuku, ima in grape wowo uh — kais sie ima inge oasr sie tausin oa in grape kac su molo oasr ke sie tausin ipin silver-ac fah kupoi ke kokul.
It will happen in that day that every place where there were a thousand vines at a thousand silver shekels, shall be for briers and thorns.
24 Mwet uh ac us mwe pisr natulos ac som sruh kosro we. Aok, facl sac nufon ac fah nwanala ke mah kokul.
People will go there with arrows and with bow, because all the land will be briers and thorns.
25 Inging nukewa ma tuh imaiyuk meet, ac kupoi ke kokul, pwanang wangin mwet ac sifil som nu we. Ac fah acn in na mongo lun cow ac sheep.”
All the hills that were cultivated with the hoe, you shall not come there for fear of briers and thorns; but it shall be for the sending forth of oxen, and for the treading of sheep."
