Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1“Surely there is a mine for silver, and a place for gold which they refine.
1“Oasr luf ma silver uh pukpukyak we; Oasr pac acn ma gold uh aknasnasyeyuk we.
2Iron is taken out of the earth, and copper is smelted out of the ore.
2Mwet uh pukanak osra liki ye fohk uh Ac munanla copper uh in kofelik ac sororla liki eot uh.
3Man sets an end to darkness, and searches out, to the furthest bound, the stones of obscurity and of thick darkness.
3Mwet uh suk pac acn ma lohsr oemeet in konauk ma oan we. Elos suk in acn loal lun faclu Ac pukanak yen lohsr uh in konauk eot uh.
4He breaks open a shaft away from where people live. They are forgotten by the foot. They hang far from men, they swing back and forth.
4Loes liki acn ma mwet uh muta we — Acn ma falken mwet uh soenna fahsr we — Mwet uh pikin laf ye eol uh, Yen ma elos ac mukena orekma we. Elos ac atla na ke sucl uh ke elos ac orekma in luf uh.
5As for the earth, out of it comes bread. Underneath it is turned up as it were by fire.
5Mwe mongo kapak infohk uh yak, A ye pacna infohk se inge Ma nukewa itungyuki ac musalsalu.
6Sapphires come from its rocks. It has dust of gold.
6Eot infohk uh oasr wek sapphire kac, Ac kutkut in faclu oasr gold kac.
7That path no bird of prey knows, neither has the falcon’s eye seen it.
7Won hawk uh tia ku in liye inkanek nu ke lufin puk ma saok uh, Won vulture tia pac wi sohksok fin acn inge.
8The proud animals have not trodden it, nor has the fierce lion passed by there.
8Wangin lion ku kutena kosro sulallal Wi forfor ke inkanek muku inge.
9He puts his hand on the flinty rock, and he overturns the mountains by the roots.
9“Mwet uh pikin eot ma arulana keke, Ac ikruiya eol uh ke elos pukanla pe eol uh.
10He cuts out channels among the rocks. His eye sees every precious thing.
10Ke elos ac putala lufin eot uh, Elos konauk wek na saok.
11He binds the streams that they don’t trickle. The thing that is hidden he brings out to light.
11Elos ac pikin nwe sun acn ma infacl uh soror we me, Ac oru tuh ma wikla oan yen lohsr uh in ku in liyeyuk.
12“But where will wisdom be found? Where is the place of understanding?
12Tusruktu, pia acn ma lalmwetmet uh ku in koneyukyak we? Kut ac luti ya kut in etala?
13Man doesn’t know its price, and it isn’t found in the land of the living.
13“Lalmwetmet uh tia ma ac ku in koneyukyak yurin mwet uh; Wangin mwet etu lupan saokiya.
14The deep says, ‘It isn’t in me.’ The sea says, ‘It isn’t with me.’
14Yen loal in meoa uh, ku inkof uh Fahk mu lalmwetmet uh tia koneyukyak we.
15It can’t be gotten for gold, neither will silver be weighed for its price.
15Silver ac gold tia ku in sang moli.
16It can’t be valued with the gold of Ophir, with the precious onyx, or the sapphire.
16Gold ma wo oemeet, ku wek ma arulana saok, Tia ku in saok oana lalmwetmet uh.
17Gold and glass can’t equal it, neither will it be exchanged for jewels of fine gold.
17Lalmwetmet uh saok liki gold, Ac saok liki sufa orekla ke gold, ku glass ma wo emeet uh.
18No mention will be made of coral or of crystal. Yes, the price of wisdom is above rubies.
18Saok lun lalmwetmet uh yohk liki Ma saok inkof uh, ku wek crystal ac ruby.
19The topaz of Ethiopia will not equal it. It won’t be valued with pure gold.
19Wek topaz ac gold ma wo oemeet uh Tia ku in lumweyuk nu ke saok lun lalmwetmet uh.
20Where then does wisdom come from? Where is the place of understanding?
20“Fin angan, na pia mutaweyen lalmwetmet? Kut ac luti ya kut in etala?
21Seeing it is hidden from the eyes of all living, and kept close from the birds of the sky.
21Wangin ma oasr moul la ku in liye, Finne won ke pacl el sohksok uh el tia pac liye.
22Destruction and Death say, ‘We have heard a rumor of it with our ears.’
22Finne misa, ku mwe kunausla, Eltal fahk mu eltal lohng mukena ke srumunyuk.
23“God understands its way, and he knows its place.
23“God mukena pa etu inkanek nu we, Ac etu lah lalmwetmet uh ac koneyukyak oya,
24For he looks to the ends of the earth, and sees under the whole sky.
24Mweyen El liye acn nukewa faclu, Ac liye ma nukewa ma oan ye kusrao.
25He establishes the force of the wind. Yes, he measures out the waters by measure.
25Ke God El sang ku nu sin eng uh, Ac wotela lah ac pia lupan meoa uh;
26When he made a decree for the rain, and a way for the lightning of the thunder,
26Ke pacl se God se sulela lah af uh ac kahkla oya, Ac inkanek ma pukunyeng in pulahl uh ac fahsr kac;
27then he saw it, and declared it. He established it, yes, and searched it out.
27Pa ingan pacl se ma God El liye lalmwetmet, ac srikeya lupan woiya uh, Na El akkeyala.
28To man he said, ‘Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom. To depart from evil is understanding.’”
28“God El fahk nu sin mwet uh, ‘Kowos fin ke lalmwetmet, kowos enenu in sunakin Leum. Ac kowos fin lungse etauk, kowos enenu in forla liki ma koluk.’”
