Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1“If a man divorces his wife and she leaves him to marry another, can he ever return to her? Would not such a land be completely defiled? But you have played the harlot with many lovers— and you would return to Me?” declares the LORD.
1LEUM GOD El fahk, “Mukul se fin sisla mutan kial, ac mutan sac som ac payuk sin sie pac mukul, mukul se meet ah tia ku in sifil eis mutan sac, mweyen ac tuh arulana akfohkfokyela acn uh. Tusruktu, Israel, pukanten na mwet kom pwar se, ac inge kom lungse foloko nu yuruk!
2“Lift up your eyes to the barren heights and see. Is there any place where you have not been violated? You sat beside the highways waiting for your lovers, like a nomad in the desert. You have defiled the land with your prostitution and wickedness.
2Ngetak nu yen turangang fin inging uh. Ya oasr acn kom tia kukakin monum we? Kom mutana soano mwet kom pwar se pe inkanek, oana sie mwet Arab el mutana yen mwesis soano sie mwet in fahsryak elan ku in oru inkanek in sulallal nu sel. Moul in kosro lom uh akfohkfokyela acn uh.
3Therefore the showers have been withheld, and no spring rains have fallen. Yet you have the brazen look of a prostitute; you refuse to be ashamed.
3Pa oru af uh tui, ac wangin pac af ke pacl in taknelik. Ngetnget lom an oapana ngetnget lun sie mutan kosro su eis molin kosro lal, ac kom tiana mwekin.
4Have you not just called to Me, ‘My Father, You are my friend from youth.
4“Ac inge kom fahk nu sik, ‘Kom pa papa tumuk, ac kom nuna lungsena nga e ke nga srikyak.
5Will He be angry forever? Will He be indignant to the end?’ This you have spoken, but you keep doing all the evil you can.”
5Kom ac tia kasrkukrak pacl nukewa. Kom ac tia mulat sik nwe tok.’ Israel, kom fahk ouingan, a kom nuna oru na ma koluk pacl nukewa.”
6Now in the days of King Josiah, the LORD said to me, “Have you seen what faithless Israel has done? She has gone up on every high hill and under every green tree to prostitute herself there.
6Ke pacl se Josiah el tuh tokosra, LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik, “Ya kom liye ma koluk Israel el oru? El forla likiyu oana sie mutan su tia pwaye nu sin mukul tumal. Fin inging nukewa ac ye sak folfol nukewa el oru oana sie mutan kosro su eis molin kosro lal.
7I thought that after she had done all these things, she would return to Me. But she did not return, and her unfaithful sister Judah saw it.
7Nga tuh nunku mu tukun el oru ma inge nukewa, el ac foloko nu yuruk. Tuh pa el tiana foloko. Na Judah, tamtael se wial su tia pac pwaye nu sin mukul tumal, el liye ma inge nukewa.
8She saw that because faithless Israel had committed adultery, I gave her a certificate of divorce and sent her away. Yet that unfaithful sister Judah had no fear and prostituted herself as well.
8Judah el liye pac lah nga Israel fahsrelik, ac nga supwalla mweyen el forla likiyu ac mutawauk in sie mutan kosro su eis molin kosro lal. Tusruktu Judah, tamtael kutasrik se wial Israel, tiana sangeng. El oayapa mutawauk in moul oana sie mutan kosro,
9Indifferent to her own infidelity, Israel had defiled the land and committed adultery with stones and trees.
9ac tia pacna mwekin kutu srisrik. El akfohkfokyela acn uh, ac orek kosro ke el alu nu ke eot ac sak.
10Yet in spite of all this, her unfaithful sister Judah did not return to Me with all her heart, but only in pretense,” declares the LORD.
10Tukun ma inge nukewa, Judah, tamtael kutasrik se wial Israel, el orek fwacfa mu el foloko nu yuruk, sruhk tia pwaye insial. Nga, LEUM GOD , pa fahk ma inge.”
11And the LORD said to me, “Faithless Israel has shown herself more righteous than unfaithful Judah.
11Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik lah Israel el finne forla lukel, pwayeiya uh el wo lukel Judah, su kutasrik.
12Go, proclaim this message toward the north: ‘Return, O faithless Israel,’ declares the LORD. ‘I will no longer look on you with anger, for I am merciful,’ declares the LORD. ‘I will not be angry forever.
12El fahk nu sik in som ac fahkak kas inge nu epang, “Israel, sifilpa foloko nu yuruk, kom finne tia pwaye nu sik. Nga pakoten ac nga fah tia kasrkusrak. Nga ac fah tia sruokya mulat luk nwe tok.
13Only acknowledge your guilt, that you have rebelled against the LORD your God. You have scattered your favors to foreign gods under every green tree and have not obeyed My voice,’” declares the LORD.
13Ma sefanna, kom in fahkak lah oasr ma koluk lom ke kom lain LEUM GOD lom. Fahkak lah ye sak folfol nukewa kom sang lungse lom nu sin god lun mutunfacl saya, ac lah kom tia akos ma sap luk. Nga, LEUM GOD , pa fahk ma inge.
14“Return, O faithless children,” declares the LORD, “for I am your master, and I will take you—one from a city and two from a family—and bring you to Zion.
14“Foloko, kowos su tia pwaye nu sik. Kowos ma luk. Nga ac eis sie suwos liki kais sie siti srisrik, ac luo suwos liki kais sie sruf, ac nga fah folokinkowosme nu Fineol Zion.
15Then I will give you shepherds after My own heart, who will feed you with knowledge and understanding.”
15Nga fah sot nu suwos mwet kol su akosyu, ac elos fah kol kowos ke lalmwetmet ac etauk.
16“In those days, when you multiply and increase in the land,” declares the LORD, “they will no longer discuss the ark of the covenant of the LORD. It will never come to mind, and no one will remember it or miss it, nor will another one be made.
16Na ke kowos ac puseni in facl sac, mwet uh fah tia sifil kaskas ke Tuptup in Wuleang luk. Elos fah tia sifil nunku kac ku esam. Elos ac tia pac enenu, ku nunku in orala pac sie.
17At that time Jerusalem will be called The Throne of the LORD, and all the nations will be gathered in Jerusalem to honor the name of the LORD. They will no longer follow the stubbornness of their evil hearts.
17In pacl sac, Jerusalem ac fah pangpang ‘Tron Lun LEUM GOD ,’ ac mutunfacl nukewa fah tukeni we in alu nu sik. Elos fah tia sifilpa fahsr tukun inse likkeke ac koluk lalos.
18In those days the house of Judah will walk with the house of Israel, and they will come together from the land of the north to the land that I gave to your fathers as an inheritance.
18Mwet Israel ac mwet Judah ac fah tukeni foloko liki sruoh lalos in acn epang, ac sifil foloko nu ke facl se nga tuh sang nu sin papa matu tomowos tuh in mwe usru lalos nwe tok.”
19Then I said, ‘How I long to make you My sons and give you a desirable land, the most beautiful inheritance of all the nations!’ I thought you would call Me ‘Father’ and never turn away from following Me.
19LEUM GOD El fahk, “Israel, nga kena eis kowos oana tulik nutik Ac asot nu suwos sie facl insewowo, Su sie mwe usru wolana inmasrlon mutunfacl nukewa. Nga kena kowos in pangonyu papa, Ac tia sifil forla likiyu.
20But as a woman may betray her husband, so you have betrayed Me, O house of Israel,” declares the LORD.
20Tusruktu kowos tiana pwaye nu sik, Oana sie mutan su tia pwaye nu sin mukul tumal. Nga, LEUM GOD , pa fahk ma inge.”
21A voice is heard on the barren heights, the children of Israel weeping and begging for mercy, because they have perverted their ways and forgotten the LORD their God.
21Sie pusra lohngyuk yen turangang fin inging uh: Pusren tung ac kwafe lun mwet Israel Mweyen elos moulkin moul koluk, Ac mulkunla LEUM GOD lalos.
22“Return, O faithless children, and I will heal your faithlessness.” “Here we are. We come to You, for You are the LORD our God.
22Foloko, kowos nukewa su forla liki LEUM GOD . Nga fah unwe kowos ac oru kowos in pwayena nu sik. Kowos fahk, “Aok, kut tuku nu yurum, mweyen kom LEUM GOD lasr.
23Surely deception comes from the hills, and commotion from the mountains. Surely the salvation of Israel is in the LORD our God.
23Wanginna kasreyasr ke kut alu nu sin god lun mwet pegan fin mangon inging uh. Kasru nu sin Israel tuku sin LEUM GOD lasr mukena.
24From our youth, that shameful god has consumed what our fathers have worked for— their flocks and herds, their sons and daughters.
24Tusruktu ke kut alu nu sel Baal, god lun mwekin, wanginla ma nukewa mwet matu lasr tuh kemkatu kac in pacl meet ah — un sheep ac un cow, oayapa tulik mukul ac tulik mutan.
25Let us lie down in our shame; let our disgrace cover us. We have sinned against the LORD our God, both we and our fathers; from our youth even to this day we have not obeyed the voice of the LORD our God.”
25Lela kut in oan in mwekin lasr, ac lela mwe mwekin lasr in afinkuti. Kut, ac mwet matu lasr, orekma koluk pacl nukewa lain LEUM GOD lasr. Kut tiana akos ma sap lal.”
