Conlang-to-conlang translation excercise: a prophecy

Since I'd put the first line in a sig a while back, I decided, why not
send the whole thing to Conlang?  So, here it is: the famous Human
Prophecy

This last line has a complicated construction, the -yu is an ending used
for absolutive when other cases are added, the ergative suffix indicates
that it agrees with the ergative of the previous clause, that is, the
trader.  It also has a complicated incorporation, one rarely found in
ordinary speach, where the instrumental (derived from the displaced
absolutive in the anti-passive) is incorporated into the verb, that
noun, in turn, was a derived noun.

Incidentally, you may have noticed a similarity between _yini'_ (find)
and _yinyu'n_ (look for, seek).  This is no co-incidence, _yini'_ comes
from Old W. _yine'_, to which was added the suffix -(h)o'ne" (try,
attempt to) to make _yineho'ne"_, literally "try to find", that is,
"look for".  This is the same suffix that exists in _pyasu'n_
(study/learn, "try to know") and _azkasu'n_ (hide, "try to be
overlooked", related to _daka'_ "ignore", originally "overlook").  It is
unproductive in Modern Watakassi', but was once very productive.
