< Maliro 1 >

1 Haa! Mzinda uja wasiyidwa wokhawokha, umene kale unali wodzaza ndi anthu! Kale unali wotchuka pakati pa mitundu ya anthu! Tsopano wasanduka ngati mkazi wamasiye. Kale unali mfumukazi ya onse pa dziko lapansi, tsopano wasanduka kapolo.
Ekibuga ekyajjulanga abantu nga kyabuliddwa! Ekyabanga eky’amaanyi mu mawanga, nga kifuuse nga nnamwandu! Eyali kabaka omukazi ng’alina amasaza, afuuse omuddu omukazi.
2 Ukulira mowawidwa mtima usiku wonse, misozi ili pa masaya pake. Mwa abwenzi ake onse, palibe ndi mmodzi yemwe womutonthoza. Abwenzi ake onse amuchitira chiwembu; onse akhala adani ake.
Ekiro akaaba nnyo nnyini, n’amaziga ne gakulukuta ku matama ge. Mu baganzi be bonna, talina n’omu amubeesabeesa. Mikwano gye bonna bamuliddemu olukwe, bafuuse balabe be.
3 Yuda watengedwa ku ukapolo, kukazunzika ndi kukagwira ntchito yolemetsa. Iye akukhala pakati pa anthu a mitundu ina; ndipo alibe malo opumulira. Onse omuthamangitsa iye amupitirira, ndipo alibe kwina kothawira.
Yuda agenze mu buwaŋŋanguse oluvannyuma lw’okubonaabona n’okukozesebwa n’obukambwe ng’omuddu. Kati abeera mu bannamawanga, talaba kifo kya kuwummuliramu. Bonna abamunoonya bamusanga mu nnaku ye.
4 Misewu yopita ku Ziyoni ikulira, chifukwa palibe ndi mmodzi yemwe akubwera ku maphwando ake. Zipata zake zonse zili pululu, ansembe akubuwula. Anamwali ake akulira, ndipo ali mʼmasautso woopsa.
Enguudo za Sayuuni zikungubaga, kubanga tewali n’omu ajja ku mbaga zaakyo ezaalagibwa. Emiryango gye gyonna girekeddwa awo, bakabona be, basinda; bawala be abaweereza bali mu buyinike, naye yennyini ali mu nnaku.
5 Adani ake asanduka mabwana ake; odana naye akupeza bwino. Yehova wamubweretsera mavuto chifukwa cha machimo ake ambiri. Ana ake atengedwa ukapolo pamaso pa mdani.
Abamuyigganya bafuuse bakama be; abalabe be beeyagala, kubanga Mukama amuleeseeko ennaku, olw’ebibi bye ebingi. Abaana be batwalibbwa mu buwaŋŋanguse, bawambiddwa omulabe.
6 Ulemerero wonse wa mwana wamkazi wa Ziyoni wachokeratu. Akalonga ake ali ngati mbawala zosowa msipu; alibe mphamvu zothawira owathamangitsa.
Ekitiibwa kyonna ekyali ku muwala wa Sayuuni kimuweddeko, abalangira be bafuuse ng’ennangaazi ezibuliddwa omuddo; mu bunafu, badduse ababagoba.
7 Pa masiku a masautso ndi kuzunzika kwake, Yerusalemu amakumbukira chuma chonse chimene mʼmasiku amakedzana chinali chake. Anthu ake atagwidwa ndi adani ake, panalibe aliyense womuthandiza. Adani ake ankamuyangʼana ndi kumuseka chifukwa cha kuwonongeka kwake.
Mu nnaku ez’okubonaabona kwe ng’asagaasagana, Yerusaalemi ajjukira ebintu eby’omuwendo byonna bye yalinanga mu nnaku ez’edda. Abantu be bwe baagwa mu mikono gy’omulabe, tewaali n’omu amubeera; abalabe be ne bamutunuulira ne bamusekerera olw’okugwa kwe.
8 Yerusalemu wachimwa kwambiri ndipo potero wakhala wodetsedwa. Onse amene ankamulemekeza pano akumunyoza, chifukwa aona umaliseche wake. Iye mwini akubuwula ndipo akubisa nkhope yake.
Yerusaalemi yayonoona nnyo nnyini, bw’atyo n’afuuka atali mulongoofu. Bonna abaamussangamu ekitiibwa bamunyooma, kubanga balabye bw’asigalidde awo; ye yennyini asinda, era akwatibwa ensonyi.
9 Uve wake umaonekera pa zovala zake; iye sanaganizire za tsogolo lake. Nʼchifukwa chake kugwa kwake kunali kwakukulu; ndipo analibe womutonthoza. “Inu Yehova, taonani masautso anga, pakuti mdani wapambana.”
Obutali bulongoofu bwe bwali mu birenge bye; teyassaayo mwoyo ku bulamu bwe obw’ebiseera ebijja. Okugwa kwe kwali kwa kyewuunyo; tewaali n’omu amubeesabeesa. “Ayi Mukama, tunuulira okubonaabona kwange, kubanga omulabe awangudde.”
10 Adani amulanda chuma chake chonse; iye anaona mitundu ya anthu achikunja ikulowa mʼmalo ake opatulika, amene Inu Mulungu munawaletsa kulowa mu msonkhano wanu.
Omulabe yagololera omukono ku bintu bya Yerusaalemi byonna eby’omuwendo; yalaba amawanga amakaafiiri nga gayingira awatukuvu we, beebo be wali ogaanye okuyingira mu kuŋŋaaniro lyo.
11 Anthu ake onse akubuwula pamene akufunafuna chakudya; asinthanitsa chuma chawo ndi chakudya kuti akhale ndi moyo. “Inu Yehova, taonani ndipo ganizirani, chifukwa ine ndanyozeka.”
Abantu be bonna basinda nga bwe banoonya ekyokulya; eby’obugagga byabwe babiwanyisaamu emmere, okusobola okuba abalamu. “Laba, Ayi Mukama Katonda, onziseeko omwoyo kubanga nnyoomebwa.”
12 “Kodi zimenezi mukuziyesa zachabe, inu nonse mukudutsa? Yangʼanani ndipo muone. Kodi pali mavuto ofanana ndi amene andigwerawa, amene Ambuye anandibweretsera pa tsiku la ukali wake?
“Mmwe tekibakwatako, mmwe mwenna abayitawo? mwetegereze mulabe obanga waliwo obuyinike obwenkana, obwantukako, Mukama bwe yanteekako ku lunaku olw’obusungu bwe obungi.
13 “Anatumiza moto kuchokera kumwamba, unalowa mpaka mʼmafupa anga. Anayala ukonde kuti ukole mapazi anga ndipo anandibweza. Anandisiya wopanda chilichonse, wolefuka tsiku lonse.
“Yaweereza omuliro okuva waggulu, ne gukka mu magumba gange. Yatega ebigere byange akatimba, n’anzizaayo emabega. Yandeka mpuubadde, nga nzirise olunaku lwonna.
14 “Wazindikira machimo anga onse ndipo ndi manja ake anawaluka pamodzi. Machimowa afika pakhosi panga, ndipo Ambuye wandithetsa mphamvu. Iye wandipereka kwa anthu amene sindingalimbane nawo.
“Ebibi byange binfuukidde ekikoligo; bisibiddwa ne binywezebwa omukono gwe. Binzitoowerera mu bulago, era bimmazeemu amaanyi. Mukama ampaddeyo mu mikono gy’abo be siyinza kugumiikiriza.
15 “Ambuye wakana anthu anga onse amphamvu omwe ankakhala nane: wasonkhanitsa gulu lankhondo kuti lilimbane nane, kuti litekedze anyamata anga; mʼmalo ofinyira mphesa Ambuye wapondereza anamwali a Yuda.
“Mukama anyoomye abalwanyi abazira bonna abaali nange; akuŋŋaanyizza eggye okunwanyisa, okuzikiriza abavubuka bange. Mukama alinnyiridde Omuwala Embeerera owa Yuda, ng’omuntu bw’asambirira ezabbibu mu lyato ng’asogola.
16 “Chifukwa cha zimenezi ndikulira ndipo maso anga adzaza ndi misozi. Palibe aliyense pafupi woti anditonthoze, palibe aliyense wondilimbitsa mtima. Ana anga ali okhaokha chifukwa mdani watigonjetsa.
“Kyenva nkaaba, amaaso gange ne gajjula amaziga, kubanga tewali n’omu andi kumpi okumbeesabeesa, ayinza okunzizaamu amaanyi. Abaana bange banakuwavu kubanga omulabe awangudde.”
17 “Ziyoni wakweza manja ake, koma palibe aliyense womutonthoza. Yehova walamula kuti abale ake a Yakobo akhale adani ake; Yerusalemu wasanduka chinthu chodetsedwa pakati pawo.
Sayuuni agolola emikono gye, naye tewali n’omu amudduukirira. Mukama awadde ekiragiro ku Yakobo baliraanwa be babeere balabe be; Yerusaalemi afuuse ekintu ekitali kirongoofu wakati mu bo.
18 “Yehova ndi wolungama, koma ndine ndinawukira malamulo ake. Imvani inu anthu a mitundu yonse; onani masautso anga. Anyamata ndi anamwali anga agwidwa ukapolo.
“Mukama mutuukirivu, newaakubadde nga najeemera ekiragiro kye. Muwulirize mmwe amawanga gonna, mutunuulire okubonaabona kwange; Abavubuka bange ne bawala bange batwalibbwa mu busibe.
19 “Ndinayitana abwenzi anga koma anandinyenga. Ansembe ndi akuluakulu anga anafa mu mzinda pamene ankafunafuna chakudya kuti akhale ndi moyo.
“Nakoowoola bannange bannyambe, naye tebanfaako; bakabona bange n’abakadde b’ekibuga kyange bazikiririra mu kibuga nga banoonya ekyokulya baddemu amaanyi.
20 “Inu Yehova, onani mmene ine ndavutikira! Ndikuzunzika mʼkati mwanga, ndipo mu mtima mwanga ndasautsidwa chifukwa ndakhala osamvera. Mʼmisewu anthu akuphedwa, ndipo ku mudzi kuli imfa yokhayokha.
“Laba, Ayi Mukama Katonda bwe ndi omunakuwavu! Ndi mu kubonaabona, n’omutima gwange teguteredde kubanga njeemye nnyo ekiyitiridde. Ebweru ekitala kirindiridde okunsanyaawo, ne mu nnyumba mulimu kufa kwereere.
21 “Anthu amva kubuwula kwanga, koma palibe wonditonthoza. Adani anga onse amva masautso anga; iwo akusangalala pa zimene Inu mwachita. Lifikitseni tsiku limene munalonjeza lija kuti iwonso adzakhale ngati ine.
“Abantu bawulidde okusinda kwange, naye tewali n’omu ananyamba. Abalabe bange bonna bawulidde okusinda kwange; basanyukidde ekyo ky’okoze. Olunaku lwe walangirira, lubatuukeko, babeere nga nze.
22 “Lolani kuti ntchito zawo zoyipa zifike pamaso panu; muwalange ngati mmene mwandilangira ine chifukwa cha machimo anga onse. Ndikubuwula kwambiri ndipo mtima wanga walefuka.”
“Obabonereze olw’obutali butuukirivu bwabwe bwonna, nga nze bwe wambonereza. Okusinda kwange kungi n’omutima gwange guzirika.”
