1And now hear, O Jacob, my servant, and Israel whom I have chosen.
1LEUM GOD El fahk, “Porongo inge, Israel, mwet kulansap luk — Mwet solla luk, fwilin tulik natul Jacob.
2Thus saith the Lord that made and formed thee, thy helper from the womb: Fear not, O my servant Jacob, and thou most righteous whom I have chosen.
2Nga LEUM GOD su orekomla; Nga nuna kasrekom oe ke kom isusla ah me. Nik kom sangeng; kom mwet kulansap luk, Mwet sulela luk su nga lungse.
3For I will pour out waters upon the thirsty ground, and streams upon the dry land: I will pour out my spirit upon thy seed, and my blessing upon thy stock.
3“Nga fah sang kof nu sin acn malu Ac oru tuh infacl in soror ke acn pao. Nga fah okoaot ngunik ac mwe insewowo luk Nu fin fwilin tulik nutum.
4And they shall spring up among the herbs, as willows beside the running waters.
4Elos ac sa in kap oana mah ma aksroksrokyeyuk wo, Oana sak willow ma kap sisken infacl ma yohk kof soror we.
5One shall say: I am the Lord’s, and another shall call himself by the name of Jacob, and another shall subscribe with his hand, To the Lord, and surname himself by the name of Israel.
5“Mwet uh fah kais sie fahk, ‘Nga ma lun LEUM GOD .’ Elos fah tuku in weang mwet Israel. Kais sie fah simusla Inen LEUM GOD fin paol, Ac sifacna fahk mu el sie sin mwet lun God.”
6Thus saith the Lord the king of Israel, and his redeemer the Lord of hosts: I am the brat, and I am the last, and besides me there is no God.
6LEUM GOD , su leumi ac karingin Israel, LEUM GOD Kulana, El fahk ouinge: “Nga pa oemeet, ac oayapa safla, ac nga God sefanna; Wangin sie pac god sayuk.
7Who is like to me? let him call and declare: and let him set before me the order, since I appointed the ancient people: and the things to come, and that shall be hereafter, let them shew unto them.
7Ya oasr sie sayuk su ku in oru ma nga orala tari? Su ku in palyeak ma nukewa ma sikyak Oe ke mutawauk ah me na nwe ke safla lun faclu?
8Fear ye not, neither be ye troubled, from that time I have made thee to hear, and have declared: you are my witnesses. Is there a God besides me, a maker, whom I have not known?
8Mwet luk, nimet sangeng! Kowos etu lah oemeet me nu inge Nga fahkak tari ma nukewa ma ac sikyak, Ac kowos mwet loh luk. Mea, oasr pac god saya? Wangin! Wangin siefanna eot ku ma nga etu kac!”
9The makers of idols are all of them nothing, and their best beloved things shall not profit them. They are their witnesses, that they do not see, nor understand, that they may be ashamed.
9Mwet nukewa su taflela ma sruloala uh elos mwet lusrongten, ac god ma elos akfulatye yohk uh wangin sripa. Elos su alu nu ke god inge elos mwet kun ac lalfon — ac elos ac fah akmwekinyeyuk.
10Who hath formed a god, and made a graven thing that is profitable for nothing?
10Wanginna ma ac wo ke sie mwet el orala sie lumah ke osra, ac alu nu kac oana sie god!
11Behold, all the partakers thereof shall be confounded: for the makers are men: they shall all assemble together, they shall stand and fear, and shall be confounded together.
11Mwet nukewa su alu nu kac ac fah akpusiselyeyuk. Mwet na pa orala ma sruloala uh. Lela elos in tuku ac tu ye nununku — elos ac fah tuninfongla, na ac fah yokna mwekinla lalos.
12The smith hath wrought with his file, with coals, and with hammers he hath formed it, and hath wrought with the strength of his arm: he shall hunger and faint, he shall drink no water, and shall be weary.
12Mwet orekma ke osra uh ac eis sie ipin osra ac esukla ke e. Ke po ku lal el sang sie hammer tuktukya osra uh nwe ke sikyak lumah se el nunku an. Ke el orekma, el ac masrinsralla, malula, ac totola.
13The carpenter hath stretched out his rule, he hath formed it with a plane: he hath made it with corners, and hath fashioned it round with the compass: and he hath made the image of a man as it were a beautiful man dwelling in a house.
13Mwet sroasr se ac srikeya sie sak. El makiya lumah se ma el ke orala uh ke mwe sim, supukla ke kufwen sroasr natul, ac taflela nu ke luman sie mwet na kato, ac filiya in lohm sel.
14He hath cut down cedars, taken the holm, and the oak that stood among the trees of the forest: he hath planted the pine tree, which the rain hath nourished.
14El ku in pakiya sak cedar elan orekmakin, ku sulela sak oak ku sak cypress insak uh me. Ku el ku pac in yukwiya soko sak cedar ac soano af uh in akkapyauk.
15And it hath served men for fuel: he took thereof, and warmed himself: and he kindled it, and baked bread: but of the rest he made a god, and adored it: he made a graven thing, and bowed down before it.
15Sie mwet ac orekmakin sie ip ke sak soko ah nu ke etong, ac orek ma sruloala ke sie ip uh. Sie ip uh el ac sang tanak sie e in akfusrfusryal sifacna ac um bread; ac ip se ngia el orala nu ke sie god ac alu nu kac.
16Part of it he burnt with fire, and with part of it he dressed his meat: he boiled pottage, and was filled, and was warmed, and said: Aha, I am warm, I have seen the fire.
16El ku in sang kutu ipinsak uh, tanak sie e; manman ikwa, ac kang nwe ke el kihpi. El akfusrfusryal sifacna ac fahk, “We, fusrfusr! Ngeng in e oh!”
17But the residue thereof he made a god, and a graven thing for himself: he boweth down before it, and adoreth it, and prayeth unto it, saying: Deliver me, for thou art my God.
17Ma lula ke sak soko ah el orala nu ke sie ma sruloala, na el pasrla nwe ten ac alu nu kac. El pre nu kac ac fahk, “Kom god luk — moliyula!”
18They have not known, nor understood: for their eyes are covered that they may not see, and that they may not understand with their heart.
18Mwet ouinge arulana afon ac tia etu ma elos oru. Elos kaliya mutalos ac nunak lalos liki ma pwaye.
19They do not consider in their mind, nor know, nor have the thought to say: I have burnt part of it in the fire, and I have baked bread upon the coals thereof: I have broiled flesh and have eaten, and of the residue thereof shall I make an idol? shall I fall down before the stock of a tree?
19Mwet se ma orek ma sruloala uh el tia ku in nunkauk in fahk, “Kutu sak inge nga esukak. Nga um bread fin mulut uh, ac nga manman ikwa ac kangla. Ma lula ke sak soko ah nga orala nu ke ma sruloala se. Ac inge, nga pasrla nu ke sie polosak!”
20Part thereof is ashes: his foolish heart adoreth it, and he will not save his soul, nor say: Perhaps there is a lie in my right hand.
20Ke el oru ouinge uh, oana elan mongo apat. Nunak lalfon lal uh aktafongyella, oru upa in kasreyuk el. El tia ku in sifacna fahk lah ma sruloala se el sruok inpaol uh tia god se.
21Remember these things, O Jacob, and Israel, for thou art my servant. I have formed thee, thou art my servant, O Israel, forget me not.
21LEUM GOD El fahk, “Israel, esam ma se inge; Esam lah kom mwet kulansap luk. Nga orekomla tuh in mwet kulansap luk, Ac nga fah tiana mulkinkomla.
22I have blotted out thy iniquities as a cloud, and thy sins as a mist: return to me, for I have redeemed thee.
22Nga pokla tari ma koluk lom, oana ke eng uh okla pukunyeng uh. Foloko nu yuruk; nga pa molikomla uh.”
23Give praise, O ye heavens, for the Lord hath shewn mercy: shout with joy, ye ends of the earth: ye mountains, resound with praise, thou, O forest, and every tree therein: for the Lord hath redeemed Jacob, and Israel shall be glorified.
23Sasa ke engan, O kowos kusrao! Sala, kowos acn loal faclu! Sasa ke engan, kowos eol ac sak nukewa insak uh! LEUM GOD El fahkak fulat lal Ke El molela Israel, mwet lal.
24Thus saith the Lord thy redeemer, and thy maker, from the womb: I am the Lord, that make all things, that alone stretch out the heavens, that establish the earth, and there is none with me.
24“Nga pa LEUM GOD , su langoekomla. Nga pa orekomla uh, Nga LEUM GOD , su orala ma nukewa. Nga mukena pa asroelik kusrao. Ke nga tuh orala faclu, wangin mwet kasreyu.
25That make void the tokens of diviners, and make the soothsayers mad. That turn the wise backward, and that, make their knowledge foolish.
25Nga oru mwet susfa uh in oana mwet lalfon, Ac aklusrongtenye ma mwet tuni acn engyeng uh palye. Nga lain kas lun mwet lalmwetmet, Ac nga akkalemye lah lalmwetmet lalos uh ma lalfon.
26That raise up the word of my servant and perform the counsel of my messengers, who say to Jerusalem: Thou shalt be inhabited: and to the cities of Juda: You shall be built, and I will raise up the wastes thereof.
26A ke pacl mwet kulansap luk oru palu lal, Ac ke nga supwala sie mwet utuk kas in akkalemye lemlem luk, Nga oru tuh lemlem ac palu ingan in akpwayeiyuk. Nga fahk nu sin Jerusalem lah mwet ac fah sifilpa muta we, Ac nu sin siti in acn Judah lah ac sifilpa musaiyuk. Acn ma sikiyukla ingan, siti ac fah sifilpa tulokyak we.
27Who say to the deep: Be thou desolate, and I will dry up thy rivers.
27Ke sie kas in sap ku luk, nga akpaoyela meoa.
28Who say to Cyrus: Thou art my shepherd, and thou shalt perform all my pleasure. Who say to Jerusalem: Thou shalt be built: and to the temple: Thy foundations shall be laid.
28Nga fahk nu sel Cyrus, ‘Kom ac fah aolyu in leumi mwet luk, Ac kom fah oru ma nga lungse kom in oru: Kom fah sapkin Jerusalem in sifil musaiyukla Ac pwelung in Tempul in oakwuki.’”
