Isaiah 21
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1The burden of the wilderness of the sea. As whirlwinds in the South sweeping on, it cometh from the wilderness, from a dreadful land.
1Pa inge sie kas in fahkak ke acn Babylonia. Mwe ongoiya lulap ac fah tuku liki sie facl aksangeng, oana sie eng fohru ma pokla acn mwesis.
2A grievous vision is declared unto me: 'The treacherous dealer dealeth treacherously, and the spoiler spoileth. Go up, O Elam! besiege, O Media! All the sighing thereof have I made to cease.'
2Nga liye sie aruruma ke orekma sulallal ma ac sikyak, sie aruruma ke kutasrik ac kunausten. Un mwet mweun lun Elam, kowos sroang mweun! Un mwet mweun lun Media, kowos in kuhlusya siti uh! Mwe keok ma Babylon orala God El fah tulokinya in tui.
3Therefore are my loins filled with convulsion; pangs have taken hold upon me, as the pangs of a woman in travail; I am bent so that I cannot hear; I am affrighted so that I cannot see.
3Aruruma sac nwekyula ke sangeng ac ngal — oana sie mutan su keok in pacl in isus lal. Nga foroti ke ma nga lohng, ac nga tuninfongla ke ma nga liye.
4My heart is bewildered, terror hath overwhelmed me; the twilight that I longed for hath been turned for me into trembling.
4Nunak luk uh fohsak, ac nga rarrar ke sangeng. Nga salka in tari ekela, tusruktu ke ekela tuku nga sangeng mukena.
5They prepare the table, they light the lamps, they eat, they drink — 'Rise up, ye princes, anoint the shield.'
5In aruruma sac, oasr sie kufwa akoeyuk; mwe loeyuk lohm elakelik nu sin mwet uh in muta fac. Na ke elos mongo ac nim, pusra na yohk se wola ac fahk: “Kowos, captain lun un mwet mweun, akoela mwe loeyuk lowos an!”
6For thus hath the Lord said unto me: Go, set a watchman; let him declare what he seeth!
6Na Leum El fahk nu sik, “Fahla likiya sie mwet san, ac fahkang nu sel elan fahk kutena ma el liye.
7And when he seeth a troop, horsemen by pairs, a troop of asses, a troop of camels, he shall hearken diligently with much heed.
7El fin liye mwet kasrusr fin horse tuku kais luo, ac mwet muta fin donkey ac camel, elan lohang nu selos akwoya.”
8And he cried as a lion: 'Upon the watch-tower, O Lord, I stand continually in the daytime, and I am set in my ward all the nights.'
8Na mwet san sac wowoyak ac fahk, “Leum se, nga nuna tu san in se inge ke len ac fong.”
9And, behold, there came a troop of men, horsemen by pairs. And he spoke and said: 'Fallen, fallen is Babylon; and all the graven images of her gods are broken unto the ground.'
9Kitin pacl ah na elos kasrusr tuku fin horse, kais luo. Mwet san sac sulkakin, “Acn Babylon musalla! Ma sruloala nukewa ma elos alu nu kac fokfoki oan infohk uh.”
10O thou my threshing, and the winnowing of my floor, that which I have heard from the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, have I declared unto you.
10Kowos mwet luk mwet Israel, sringsring kowos oana wheat uh, tusruktu inge nga fahkak tari nu suwos pweng wo ma nga lohng sin LEUM GOD Kulana, God lun Israel.
11The burden of Dumah. One calleth unto me out of Seir: 'Watchman, what of the night? Watchman, what of the night?'
11Sie kas in fahkak ke acn Edom pa inge. Mwet se pangma nu sik Edom me, “Mwet san, fukunyen fong uh inge? Fahkma lah ac lenelik ngac.”
12The watchman said: 'The morning cometh, and also the night — if ye will inquire, inquire ye; return, come.'
12Na nga topuk, “Akuranna lenelik, tusruktu fong ac sifil tuku. Kom fin lungse sifil siyuk, kom tufah foloko siyuk.”
13The burden upon Arabia. In the thickets in Arabia shall ye lodge, O ye caravans of Dedanites.
13Sie kas in fahkak ke acn Arabia pa inge. Mwet Dedan, kowos su mutangan aktuktuk yen mwesis in Arabia,
14Unto him that is thirsty bring ye water! The inhabitants of the land of Tema did meet the fugitive with his bread.
14sang kof nimen mwet malu su tuku nu yuruwos. Kowos mwet in facl Tema, sang mwe mongo nu sin mwet kaingla liki acn selos.
15For they fled away from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war.
15Mwet uh kaingkin cutlass ma akoeyukla tari in onelosi, liki mwe pisr ma akola in pisrikyuk, ac liki mwe sensen mukewa lun mweun.
16For thus hath the Lord said unto me: 'Within a year, according to the years of a hireling, and all the glory of Kedar shall fail;
16Na Leum El fahk nu sik, “Wolana lun sruf Kedar ac fah safla tukun yac na fal se, in oana ke sie mwet el eis molin orekma lal ke el akfalye yac nufon se.
17and the residue of the number of the archers, the mighty men of the children of Kedar, shall be diminished; for the LORD, the God of Israel, hath spoken it.'
17Inmasrlon mwet Kedar, mwet pisr lalos pa pulaik oemeet, tusruktu mwet na pu selos ac painmoulla. Nga, LEUM GOD lun Israel, pa fahk ma inge.”
