Jeremiah 47
1 The word of Jehovah that came to Jeremiah the prophet concerning the Philistines, before Pharaoh smote Gaza.
Kino kye kigambo kya Mukama Katonda ekyajjira nnabbi Yeremiya ekikwata ku Bafirisuuti nga Falaawo tannalumba Gaza nga kigamba nti:
2 Thus says Jehovah: Behold, waters rise up out of the north, and shall become an overflowing stream, and shall overflow the land and all that is therein, the city and those who dwell therein. And the men shall cry, and all the inhabitants of the land shall wail
Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti, “Laba amazzi agatumbira mu bukiikakkono, galifuuka omugga ogwanjaala. Galyanjaala ku nsi ne mu bibuga byonna ebigirimu n’ababituulamu. Abantu balikaaba; bonna abali mu nsi baliwowoggana.
3 at the noise of the stamping of the hoofs of his strong ones, at the rushing of his chariots, at the rumbling of his wheels. The fathers do not look back to their sons for feebleness of hands,
Olw’emisinde gy’embalaasi ezidduka n’okufuumuuka kw’amagaali g’omulabe era n’okuwuuma kwa nnamuziga, bakitaabwe tebajja kukyuka kuyamba baana baabwe, emikono gyabwe gya kulebera.
4 because of the day that comes to destroy all the Philistines, to cut off from Tyre and Sidon every helper who remains. For Jehovah will destroy the Philistines, the remnant of the isle of Caphtor.
Kubanga olunaku lutuuse okuzikiriza Abafirisuuti bonna, n’okusalako bonna abandisigaddewo abandiyambye Ttuulo ne Sidoni. Mukama wa kuzikiriza Abafirisuuti abaasigalawo ku mbalama z’ekizinga Kafutoli.
5 Baldness has come upon Gaza. Ashkelon is brought to naught, the remnant of their valley. How long will thou cut thyself?
Gaza alimwa omutwe gwe ng’akungubaga. Asukulooni alisirisibwa. Ggwe eyasigala mu kiwonvu, olituusa ddi okwesalaasala?
6 O thou sword of Jehovah, how long will it be ere thou be quiet? Put up thyself into thy scabbard. Rest, and be still.
“‘Ayi ggwe ekitala kya Mukama Katonda, okaaba, obudde bunaatuuka ddi owummule? Ddayo mu kiraato kyo sirika teweenyeenya.’
7 How can thou be quiet, since Jehovah has given thee a charge against Ashkelon, and against the sea-shore. He has appointed it there.
Naye kiyinza kitya okuwummula nga Mukama y’akiragidde, ng’akiragidde okulumba Asukulooni n’olubalama lw’ennyanja?”
