Damn, I didn't expect a response like that. Great, and humbling, as it took me far too long to understand you guys and write an appropiate response (no doubt riddled with mistakes).

Here's the Bing translation:

Quote:
sochhu' opposing the Federation Party, he had to argue with the beautiful and 'essim. the story of the same report indicates that there are no mahoun, 'essim frustrated. 'essim pleasure to know News says, but now I do not invent False Information Knowledge 'essim. the story never mahoun Snickers from the audience. interesting. Of course, I would need is to die with a lie no more. courage Type. the Klingons demanded RECIPIENT mahoun. When you meet 'essim because I Feared unconscious. You will only be able to guess the news 'essim. but I dare to die there. suddenly inhale 'essim. brave mahoun differently, but brave. in the area the Klingons to be brave Stands. 'essim trust. being told the truth. and strive to Kill 'essim.
It seems to lack honor.

I thought as much, when I repeatedly failed at translating it, later I realized that parts of it are names, and the text doesn't really fit into this thread, so I searched the web for it :-)
Still, it's a nice idea.

As for a translation - I'm quite sure that the Bing translation is faulty. That's not to say I could translate it with doubtlessness either, as I said I have to learn much more vocabulary, having to look up every other word isn't easy.
Texts with proper names that are indistinguishable from words aren't easy either...

The first sentence:

SochHu' rInpu'DI' DIvI' lopno', ghoHtaHvIS 'eSSIm ghaH je 'IHbe'.

I would translate it as

Seven days ago, when the federation party ended, while he and essim were having an ugly dispute.

(Unless 'IHbe' is a name, in which case he and essim would be arguing with 'IHbe')

lut rap ja'taHmo' Mahoun, 'eSSIm moghmoHchu'.
could be
Essim gets frustrated because Mahoun tells the same story.

I just tried the Bing translator as well - it's rather useless if you ask me. Unless you already know the words, it's going to mislead you - it translates "ja' " correctly as "tell", but "ja'taH" (continuous form) as "grunt"...
Unfortunately there isn't really a good automated translator available...
