< Eoksra 4 >

1 Gold saromrom lasr arulana ohkla; Eot ke Tempul oalik na inkanek uh.
ALEPH. O how the gold has become dulled, the finest color has been altered, the stones of the sanctuary have been scattered at the head of every street.
2 Mukul fusr lun Zion elos tuh saok sesr oana gold, A inge pilesreyuk elos oana tup ma orek ke fohk kle.
BETH. The famous sons of Zion, and those clothed with the foremost gold: how they have become like earthen vessels, the work of the hands of a potter.
3 Finne kientop in wolf soko el ac katitii ma fusr natul, Tusruktu mwet luk elos sulallal nu sin ma fusr natulos, oana won ostrich uh.
GHIMEL. Yet even savages expose their breast and give milk to their young. But the daughter of my people is cruel, like the ostrich in the desert.
4 Elos fuhlela tulik fusr natulos in misa ke masrinsral ac malu; Tulik uh ngusr mwe mongo, a wangin mwet ac sang nu selos.
DALETH. The tongue of the infant adheres to his palate out of thirst. The little ones have asked for bread, and there was no one to break it for them.
5 Mwet ma kang mwe mongo na yuyu meet elos misa fin inkanek uh ke masrinsral; Elos su tohfla in kasrup la elos iluhsya pus uh in sukok mwe mongo.
HE. Those who were fed indulgently have passed away in the roads. Those who were nourished with saffron have welcomed filth.
6 Mwet luk elos kalyeiyuk upa liki na mwet ma tuh muta Sodom, Su sun ongoiya ke God El tuh kunausla acn we ke kitin pacl na srisrik.
VAU. And the iniquity of the daughter of my people has been made greater than the sin of Sodom, which was overthrown in a moment, and yet hands did not take captives in her.
7 Fisrak natusr elos tuh tiana akfohkfokyeyukla, ac elos nasnas oana snow; Wasri ac ku, saromrom finsroalos ke kuiyen manolos.
ZAIN. Her Nazirites were whiter than snow, shinier than milk, more ruddy than ancient ivory, more beautiful than sapphire.
8 Inge elos misa oan ke inkanek uh, tia akilenyuk elos ke sripen sroalsroalla mutalos. Kolo kaclos pulamlamla oana sak, ac arosrosak oan fin sri kaclos.
HETH. Their face has been blacked more than coals, and they are not recognized in the streets. Their skin has adhered to their bones; it dried out and became like wood.
9 Wo nu selos su anwuki ke mweun liki elos su misa tok, Su wangin mwe mongo in sruokya moul lalos, pwanang elso misa ke masrinsral.
TETH. It was better for those slain by the sword, than for those put to death by famine. For these waste away, being consumed by the sterility of the land.
10 Ongoiya se ma sun mwet luk inge oru sie mwe aksangeng na lulap; Nina ma saokkin tulik natulos, elos poeleak tulik natulos sifacna mwe mongo.
JOD. The hands of pitiable women have boiled their sons. They became their food in the grief of the daughter of my people.
11 LEUM GOD El okoama nufon fulen kasrkusrak lal; El akosak sie e in Zion su esukak acn we nwe ke mwesri oan infohk uh.
CAPH. The Lord has completed his fury; he has poured out the wrath of his indignation. And he has kindled a fire in Zion, and it has devoured its foundations.
12 Wangin sie mwet in kutena acn, finne mwet leum lun mutunfacl saya, Tuh lulalfongi mu oasr mwet mweun ku in utyak ke mutunpot lun Jerusalem.
LAMED. The kings of the earth, and all the inhabitants of the world, did not believe that the adversary and the enemy would enter through the gates of Jerusalem.
13 Tusruktu ma inge sikyak, mweyen mwet palu we elos orekma koluk, ac mwet tol uh oasr mwatalos Ke elos pwanang misa lun mwet wangin mwata.
MEM. It is because of the sins of her prophets, and the iniquities of her priests, who have shed the blood of the just in her midst.
14 Mwet kol lun acn we elos foroht forma inkanek uh oana mwet kun. Elos arulana srahfon, oru wangin mwet lungse pusralulos.
NUN. They have wandered in the streets like the blind; they have been defiled with blood. And when they were not able, they held their garments.
15 Mwet ah wowoyak ac fahk, “Tiok! Komtal fohkfok! Nimet pusralyu!” Ouinge elos takusrkusr som liki mutunfacl nu ke mutunfacl, a wangin mwet lohang nu selos.
SAMECH. “Go back, you polluted ones!” they cried out to them. “Go back, go away, do not touch!” Of course, they argued, and being removed, they said among the Gentiles, “He will no longer dwell among them.”
16 Wanginla nunak lun LEUM GOD kaclos; El sifacna luseloselik. Wangin nunak lal ke mwet tol ac mwet kol lasr.
PHE. The face of the Lord has divided them. He will no longer respect them. They were not ashamed before the faces of the priests, nor did they take pity on the elderly.
17 Kut sukok kasru nwe wanginla ku lasr in sifilpa suk, a wanginna kasru tuku nu sesr. Kut tupanna mu mutunfacl se ac tuku kasrekut, a tiana tuku.
AIN. While we were still standing, our eyes failed, expecting help for us in vain, when we looked attentively toward a nation that was not able to save.
18 Mwet lokoalok lasr elos tawi kut; kut tiana ku in forfor innek uh. Len lasr uh safla; pacl safla lasr uh tuku tari.
SADE. Our footsteps have slipped on the paths of our own streets. Our end draws near. Our days have been completed, for our end has arrived.
19 Elos ukwekuti, mui liki ke eagle uh ac pwesrouli nu facsr lucng me uh. Elos lol acn kut fahsr we fin inging uh, ac kasriki kut ac sruokkuti in acn mwesis.
COPH. Our persecutors have been swifter than the eagles of the sky. They have been pursuing us above the mountains; they have lain in wait for us in the desert.
20 Elos sruokya kuiyen moul lasr, aok tokosra su LEUM GOD El sulela; El su kut tuh lulalfongi mu ac langoekut liki kutena mwet ma ac utyak in mweuni kut uh.
RES. The spirit of our mouth, Christ the Lord, has been captured by our sins; to him, we said, “In your shadow, we will live among the Gentiles.”
21 Mwet Edom ac mwet Uz, kowos in israsr na; engan ke srak oasr pacl in engan lowos uh. Pacl in ongoiya lowos ac fah tuku pac; kowos ac fah koflufolla ac tukulkulwot tukulkulme ke mwekin.
SIN. Be glad and rejoice, O daughter of Edom, who dwells in the Land of Uz. The cup will also pass to you; you will be inebriated as well as naked.
22 Zion el eis tari molin ma koluk lal; LEUM GOD El ac tia filikuti in sruoh nwe tok. Tusruktu mwet Edom, LEUM GOD El ac fah kai kowos; El ac fah akkalemyela orekma koluk lowos.
THAU. Your iniquity has been completed, O daughter of Zion. He will no longer send you away to captivity. He has visited your iniquity, O daughter of Edom; he has uncovered your sins.
