< Micah 4 >
1 But in the latter days it shall come to pass, that the mountain of Jehovah's house shall be established on the top of the mountains, and it shall be exalted above the hills, and peoples shall flow to it.
Mu nnaku ez’oluvannyuma olusozi lw’ennyumba ya Mukama luligulumizibwa okusinga ensozi zonna; lulisitulibwa waggulu okusukkuluma ku busozi, era abantu balisimba ennyiriri nga balaga gye luli.
2 And many nations shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of Jehovah, and to the house of the God of Jacob, and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths. For out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of Jehovah from Jerusalem.
Amawanga mangi galiragayo ne googera nti, “Mujje twambuke ku lusozi lwa Mukama, mu nnyumba ya Katonda wa Yakobo. Alituyigiriza by’ayagala tulyoke tutambulire mu makubo ge.” Alisinziira mu Sayuuni okuwa abantu etteeka lye, n’ekigambo kya Mukama kiriva mu Yerusaalemi.
3 And he will judge between many peoples, and will decide concerning strong nations afar off. And they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning-hooks. Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, nor shall they learn war any more.
Aliramula amawanga atereeze ensonga wakati w’amawanga gakirimaanyi ag’ewala. Baliddira ebitala byabwe ne babiweesaamu enkumbi, n’amafumu gaabwe ne bagaweesaamu ebiwabyo. Eggwanga teririyimusa kitala ku ggwanga linnaalyo, so tebalyetegeka kulwana ntalo nate.
4 But they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig tree, and none shall make them afraid. For the mouth of Jehovah of hosts has spoken it.
Buli muntu aliba mu ddembe wansi w’omuzabbibu gwe ne mu mutiini gwe. Tewalibaawo abatiisa kubanga akamwa ka Mukama Ayinzabyonna ke kakyogedde.
5 For all the peoples walk each one in the name of his god. And we will walk in the name of Jehovah our God forever and ever.
Newaakubadde nga amawanga gonna galigoberera bakatonda baago, naye ffe tunaatambuliranga mu linnya lya Mukama Katonda waffe emirembe n’emirembe.
6 In that day, says Jehovah, I will assemble that which is lame, and I will gather that which is driven away, and that which I have afflicted.
“Ku lunaku olwo,” bw’ayogera Mukama, “Ndikuŋŋaanya abalema, n’abo abaawaŋŋangusibwa n’abo abali mu nnaku.
7 And I will make that which was lame a remnant, and that which was cast far off a strong nation. And Jehovah will reign over them in mount Zion from henceforth even forever.
Abalema ndibafuula abalonde, n’abo be nagoba, mbafuule eggwanga ery’amaanyi. Mukama alibafugira mu Lusozi Sayuuni okuva ku lunaku olwo okutuusa emirembe gyonna.
8 And thou, O tower of the flock, the hill of the daughter of Zion, to thee it shall come. Yea, the former dominion shall come, the kingdom of the daughter of Jerusalem.
Ggwe omunaala oguyimirirwamu okulabirira endiga, ggwe ekigo eky’amaanyi ekya Muwala wa Sayuuni, ekitiibwa kyo eky’edda kirikuddira, n’obwakabaka ne bukomawo eri Muwala wa Sayuuni.”
9 Now why do thou cry out aloud? Is there no king in thee? Has thy counselor perished, that pangs have taken hold of thee as of a woman in travail?
Naye kaakano kiki ekibakaabya ennyo bwe mutyo? Temulina kabaka abakulembera? Omuwi w’amagezi wammwe yafa, ennaku eryoke ebakwate ng’omukazi alumwa okuzaala?
10 Be in pain, and labor to bring forth, O daughter of Zion, like a woman in travail. For now thou shall go forth out of the city, and shall dwell in the field, and shall come even to Babylon. There thou shall be rescued. There Jehovah will redeem thee from the hand of thine enemies.
Lumwa, weenyoole ggwe Omuwala wa Sayuuni ng’omukazi alumwa okuzaala. Kubanga kaakano oteekwa okuva mu kibuga ogende obeere ku ttale. Mulitwalibwa mu buwaŋŋanguse mu Babulooni, era eyo gye ndibalokolera. Ndibanunulira eyo okuva mu mukono gw’omulabe.
11 And now many nations are assembled against thee, who say, Let her be defiled, and let our eye see our desire upon Zion.
Kyokka kaakano amawanga mangi gakuŋŋaanye okubalwanyisa. Boogera nti, Ayonoonebwe, n’amaaso gaffe geelolere Sayuuni.
12 But they know not the thoughts of Jehovah, nor do they understand his counsel, for he has gathered them as the sheaves to the threshing-floor.
Naye tebamanyi birowoozo bya Mukama; tebategeera kuteesa kwe; oyo akuŋŋaanya abalabe be ng’ebinywa by’eŋŋaano bwe bikuŋŋaanyizibwa mu gguuliro.
13 Arise and thresh, O daughter of Zion, for I will make thy horn iron, and I will make thy hoofs brass, and thou shall beat many peoples in pieces. And I will devote their gain to Jehovah, and their substance to the Lord of the whole earth.
“Golokoka otandike okusa ggwe Omuwala wa Sayuuni, kubanga ejjembe lyo ndirifuula ekyuma; ndikuwa ebigere eby’ekyuma eky’ekikomo era olibetenta amawanga mangi.” Amagoba gaabwe n’ebintu byabwe bye bafunye mu makubo amakyamu olibiwaayo eri Mukama, n’obugagga bwabwe n’obuwaayo eri Mukama w’ensi zonna.
