Jeremiah 47
1 Meet liki tokosra lun Egypt el mweuni siti Gaza, LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sik ke acn Philistia.
The word of the Lord that came to Jeremias the prophet against the people of Palestine, before Pharao took Gaza.
2 El fahk: “Liye! Kof ac fah lapak layen epang Ac asrla oana soko infacl sronoti. Ac fah afunla acn uh ac ma nukewa fac — Siti uh ac elos su muta we. Mwet uh ac fah wowoyak in sukok kasru; Mwet nukewa fin faclu fah arulana tung.
Thus saith the Lord: Behold there come up waters out of the north, and they shall be as an overflowing torrent, and they shall cover the land, and all that is therein, the city and the inhabitants thereof: then the men shall cry, and all the inhabitants of the land shall howl,
3 Elos fah lohng kusen kihmkim lun falken horse uh, Ac pusren kasrusr lun chariot, Ac erarrar lun wheel uh. Papa uh ac fah tia folokla in srukak tulik natulos, Mweyen paolos munasla ac atla siskalos.
At the noise of the marching of arms, and of his soldiers, at the rushing of his chariots, and the multitude of his wheels. The fathers have not looked back to the children, for feebleness of hands,
4 Pacl in kunausla acn Philistia summa, Kain in kasru nukewa Ac fah wotla liki acn Tyre ac Sidon. Nga, LEUM GOD, fah kunausla mwet Philistia, Elos nukewa su tuku liki weacn Crete.
Because of the coming of the day, in which all the Philistines shall be laid waste, and Tyre and Sidon shall be destroyed, with all the rest of their helpers. For the Lord hath wasted the Philistines, the remnant of the isle of Cappadocia.
5 Asor lulap sun tari mwet Gaza, Ac mwet Ashkelon elos misla tia kas. Mwet lula Philistia elos ac mwemelil nwe ngac?
Baldness is come upon Gaza: Ascalon hath held her peace with the remnant of their valley: how long shalt thou cut thyself?
6 Kowos wowoyak ac fahk, “Cutlass nutin LEUM GOD! Kom ac uni mwet uh nwe ngac? Isongkomyang nu in mwe nuk lom an Ac mongla loac!’
O thou sword of the Lord, how long wilt thou not be quiet? Go into thy scabbard, rest, and be still.
7 Tusruktu el ac mongla fuka Ke nga sang tari orekma se kunal? Nga sapkin nu sel elan mweuni Ashkelon Ac mwet su muta weacn uh.”
How shall it be quiet, when the Lord hath given it a charge against Ascalon, and against the countries thereof by the sea side, and there hath made an appointment for it?
