Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1Come now, you rich, weep and howl for your miseries that are coming on you.
1Ac inge, kowos mwet kasrup, porongeyu! Kowos in tung ac mwemelil ke mwe ongoiya su ac tuku nu fowos!
2Your riches are corrupted and your garments are moth-eaten.
2Mwe kasrup lowos kulamla, ac nuknuk lowos mongola ke watil.
3Your gold and your silver are corroded, and their corrosion will be for a testimony against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have laid up your treasure in the last days.
3Gold ac silver lowos nukla ke ras, ac ras se inge ac fah sie mwe loh lain kowos, su ac fah kangla ikowos oana e uh. Kowos elosak mwe kasrup in len safla inge.
4Behold, the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you have kept back by fraud, cry out; and the cries of those who reaped have entered into the ears of the Lord of Armies.
4Kowos tia moleang molin orekma lun mwet orekma inima lowos ah. Porongo torkaskas lalos! Pusren tung lun mwet su sifeni fokin ima lowos sun insren God, Leum Kulana.
5You have lived in luxury on the earth, and taken your pleasure. You have nourished your hearts as in a day of slaughter.
5Moul lowos fin faclu sessesla ke mwe kasrup lulap ac mwe engan. Kowos sifacna akfatye kowos nu ke len in anwuki.
6You have condemned and you have murdered the righteous one. He doesn’t resist you.
6Kowos lusla ac uniya mwet wangin mwata, ac elos tiana lain kowos.
7Be patient therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. Behold, the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient over it, until it receives the early and late rain.
7Ke ma inge, mwet lulalfongi wiuk, kowos in mongfisrasr nwe ke pacl Leum el ac tuku. Liye luman mongfisrasr lun sie mwet ima ke el soano na ima lal in fokkakin fahko wowo kac. El mongfisrasr na in soano af in taknelik ac af in kosrani.
8You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.
8Kowos enenu in wi pac mongfisrasr ac akkeye insiowos, tuh len in tuku lun Leum apkuran.
9Don’t grumble, brothers, against one another, so that you won’t be judged. Behold, the judge stands at the door.
9Mwet lulalfongi wiuk, nik kowos torkaskas lain sie sin sie, tuh God Elan tia nununkekowos. Mwet Nununku El apkuran — El akola na in utyak.
10Take, brothers, for an example of suffering and of perseverance, the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord.
10Mwet kawuk luk, esam mwet palu puspis su fahkak ke Inen Leum. Elos in mwe srikasrak nu suwos mweyen elos nwe keok ke ma puspis a elos mongfisrasr na.
11Behold, we call them blessed who endured. You have heard of the perseverance of Job and have seen the Lord in the outcome, and how the Lord is full of compassion and mercy.
11Kut pangon mu elos mwet engan mweyen elos mutangla mwe keok nu selos. Kowos lohng ke muteng lal Job, ac kowos etu luman kasreyuk lun Leum nu sel ke saflaiya. Tuh Leum El sessesla ke kulang ac pakoten.
12But above all things, my brothers, don’t swear—not by heaven, or by the earth, or by any other oath; but let your “yes” be “yes”, and your “no”, “no”, so that you don’t fall into hypocrisy.
12A yohk liki ma nukewa, mwet lulalfongi wiuk, kowos in tia fulahk ke pacl kowos orek wulela. Nikmet fulahk ke inkusrao ku faclu ku ke kutena ma saya. Fahk na “Aok” ke ma ac aok, ac “Mo” ke ma ac mo, na God El ac fah tia nununkekowos.
13Is any among you suffering? Let him pray. Is any cheerful? Let him sing praises.
13Fin oasr mwet inmasrlowos su oasr in ongoiya, el enenu in pre. Fin oasr mwet su engan, el enenu in on ke on in kaksak.
14Is any among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the assembly, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord;
14Fin oasr mwet mas, el enenu in suli mwet kol lun church, su fah pre kacl ac mosrwella ke oil in olive ke Inen Leum.
15and the prayer of faith will heal him who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. If he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.
15Pre su orek ke lulalfongi fah akkeyala mwet mas. Leum El fah taksalak elan kwela, ac fin oasr ma koluk el orala, ac fah nunak munas nu sel.
16Confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The insistent prayer of a righteous person is powerfully effective.
16Ke ma inge, kowos in fahkak ma koluk lowos nu sin sie sin sie, ac pre ke sie sin sie, tuh kowos fah ku in kwela. Pre lun sie mwet suwohs arulana kalem ku kac.
17Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain, and it didn’t rain on the earth for three years and six months.
17Elijah el mwet se oapana kut. El pre ke inse pwaye tuh in fah wangin af, na wangin af putati nu faclu ke yac tolu tafu.
18He prayed again, and the sky gave rain, and the earth produced its fruit.
18Na el sifilpa pre, ac af na matol tuku inkusrao me, ac faclu sifil isus fahko.
19Brothers, if any among you wanders from the truth and someone turns him back,
19Mwet lulalfongi wiuk, sie suwos fin fahsr liki inkanek pwaye, ac sie pac suwos sifil folokunulma,
20let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins.
20esam na ma se inge: kutena mwet su folokonma sie mwet koluk liki tafongla lal, el molela ngunin mwet koluk sac liki misa, ac oru tuh in oasr nunak munas ke ma koluk puspis.
