< Jeremiah 30 >

1 LEUM GOD, God lun Israel,
This is the word that came to Jeremias from the Lord, saying:
2 El fahk nu sik, “Simusla ma nukewa nga fahkot nu sum uh in sie book an,
Thus saith the Lord, the God of Israel, saying: Write thee all the words that I have spoken to thee, in a book.
3 mweyen pacl se ac tuku ke nga ac sifil tulokonak mwet luk, mwet Israel ac mwet Judah. Nga ac folokunulosme nu in facl se ma nga tuh sang nu sin mwet matu lalos, ac elos ac fah sifilpa eisla in ma lalos ac oakwuki we. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
For behold the days come, saith the Lord, and I will bring again the captivity of my people Israel and Juda, saith the Lord: and I will cause them to return to the land which I gave to their fathers, and they shall possess it.
4 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sin mwet Israel ac mwet Judah,
And these are the words that the Lord hath spoken to Israel and to Juda:
5 “Nga lohng pusren tung in fosrngala, Pusren sangeng, ac tia pusren misla.
For thus saith the Lord: We have heard a voice of terror: there is fear and no peace.
6 Na inge, tui ac nunku! Ya sie mukul ku in isus? Na efu ku nga liye mukul nukewa iseya sialos Oana sie mutan isus? Efu ku mutun mwet nukewa fasrfasrla?
Ask ye, and see if a man bear children? why then have I seen every man with his hands on his loins, like a woman in labour, and all faces are turned yellow?
7 Sie len na koluk ac tuku; Wangin sie len saya ku in lumweyuk nu kac — Sie pacl in fosrnga nu sin mwet luk, Tusruktu elos ac fah moul ac tia misa.”
Alas, for that day is great, neither is there the like to it; and it Is the time of tribulation to Jacob, but he shall be saved out of it.
8 LEUM GOD Kulana El fahk, “Ke len sac ac tuku, nga ac koteya mwe utuk ma oan fin kwawalos ac tulalik sein kaclos, ac elos fah tia sifilpa mwet kohs nu sin mwet in mutunfacl saya.
And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord of hosts, that I will break his yoke from off thy neck, and will burst his bands: and strangers shall no more rule over him:
9 A elos ac fah kulansupweyu, LEUM GOD lalos, ac kulansupu sie sin fwilin tulik natul David, su nga fah akleumyalak in tokosra lalos.
But they shall serve the Lord their God, and David their king, whom I will raise up to them.
10 “Mwet luk, nimet sangeng; Mwet Israel, kowos in tia fosrnga. Nga ac molikowosla liki facl loessula sac, Liki acn ma kowos mwet sruoh nu we. Kowos ac foloko nu yen suwos ac muta in misla; Kowos fah okak, ac wangin mwet ac aksangengye kowos.
Therefore fear thou not, my servant Jacob, saith the Lord, neither be dismayed, O Israel: for behold, I will save thee from a country afar off, and thy seed from the land of their captivity: and Jacob shall return, and be at rest, and abound with all good things, and there shall be none whom he may fear:
11 Nga fah wi kowos ac molikowosla. Nga fah kunausla mutunfacl nukewa Yen nga akfahsryekowoselik nu we, Tusruktu nga fah tia kunauskowosla. Nga fah tia lela in wangin kaiyuk nu suwos, A nga fah oru kai ma fal nu suwos. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
For I am with thee, saith the Lord, to save thee: for I will utterly consume all the nations, among which I have scattered thee: but I will not utterly consume thee: but I will chastise thee in judgment, that thou mayst not seem to thyself innocent.
12 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sin mwet lal, “Kinet keiwos uh ac tia ku in mahla; Acn musalla keiwos tiana ku in wola.
For thus saith the Lord: Thy bruise is incurable, thy wound is very grievous.
13 Wangin mwet in liyekowosyang, Wangin ono nu ke srolot keiwos uh. Wangin finsrak mu kowos ac kwela.
There is none to judge thy judgment to bind it up: thou hast no healing medicines.
14 Mwet nukewa ma asruoki nu suwos meet ah, elos mulkinkowosla; Elos tia sifil nunkekowos. Nga tuh anwuk nu suwos oana sie mwet lokoalok; Kalya nu suwos uh arulana upa Mweyen pusla ma koluk lowos Ac yokna orekma sulallal lowos.
All thy lovers have forgotten thee, and will not seek after thee: for I have wounded thee with the wound of an enemy, with a cruel chastisement: by reason of the multitude of thy iniquities, thy sins are hardened.
15 Tia sifil torkaskas ke kinet keiwos uh; Wanginna ono ac ku in unwekowosla. Nga kai kowos ouinge Mweyen pusla ma koluk lowos, Ac yokna orekma sulallal lowos.
Why criest thou for thy affliction? thy sorrow is incurable: for the multitude of thy iniquity, and for thy hardened sins I have done these things to thee.
16 Tusruktu inge, elos nukewa su kunauskowosla ac fah kunausyukla, Ac mwet lokoalok lowos nukewa ac fah utukla tuh elos in mwet sruoh. Elos nukewa su akkeokye kowos fah akkeokyeyuk, Ac elos nukewa su pisre ma lowos ac fah pusrla pac ma lalos.
Therefore all they that devour thee shall be devoured: and all thy enemies shall be carried into captivity: and they that waste thee shall be wasted, and all that prey upon thee will I give for a prey.
17 Nga fah oru tuh kowos in sifilpa kwela. Nga fah unwala kinet keiwos, Mwet lokoalok lowos finne fahk mu, ‘Zion el sisila, Wangin mwet nunku kacl.’ Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ma inge.”
For I will close up thy scar, and will heal thee of thy wounds, saith the Lord. Because they have called thee, O Sion, an outcast: This is she that hath none to seek after her.
18 LEUM GOD El fahk, “Nga ac fah folokonma mwet luk nu in facl selos Ac fahkak pakomuta luk nu sin sou nukewa. Ac fah sifilpa musaiyuk acn Jerusalem, Ac inkul fulat lun tokosra ac fah aksasuyeyukla.
Thus saith the Lord: Behold I bring back the captivity of the pavilions of Jacob, and will have pity on his houses, and the city shall be built in her place, and the temple shall be found according to the order thereof.
19 Mwet su muta we fah yuk on in kaksak, Ac sasa ke engan. Ke sripen nga akinsewowoyalos, elos fah puseni. Mutunfacl saya ac fah akfulatyalos, ke sripen mwe akinsewowo luk oan faclos.
And out of them shall come forth praise, and the voice of them that play: and I will multiply them, and they shall not be made few: and I will glorify them, and they shall not be lessened.
20 Nga fah folokonak ku lun mutunfacl se inge in oana meet ah, Ac sifilpa oakiya in ku; Nga fah kaelos nukewa su akkeokyalos.
And their children shall be as from the beginning, and their assembly be permanent before me: and I will against all that afflict them.
21 Tokosra lalos el fah ma na in facl selos sifacna, Mwet kol lalos el fah tuku na inmasrlolos me. LEUM GOD El fahk, Nga fah solal elan tuku nu yuruk, Ac el ac fah tuku, Tuh su ac ku in tuku fin tia solsol el?
And their leader shall be of themselves: and their prince shall come forth from the midst of them: and I will bring him near, and he shall come to me: for who is this that setteth his heart to approach to me, saith the Lord?
22 Kowos fah mwet luk, Ac nga fah God lowos.”
And you shall be my people: and I will be your God.
23 Liye, kasrkusrak lun LEUM GOD oana sie paka, sie eng na upa ma ac tuhyak ac putati fin sifen mwet koluk,
Behold the whirlwind of the Lord, his fury going forth, a violent storm, it shall rest upon the head of the wicked.
24 na ac fah tiana tui nwe ke El orala ma nukewa ma El nunku in oru. In len fahsru, mwet lal fah kalem na pwaye ke ma inge.
The Lord will not turn away the wrath of his indignation, till he have executed and performed the thought o his heart: in the latter days you shall understand these things.
