Jeremias 25
1 THE WORD THAT CAME TO JEREMIAS concerning all the people of Juda in the fourth year of Joakim, son of Josias, king of Juda;
Ekigambo ekikwata ku bantu bonna aba Yuda ne kijjira Yeremiya mu mwaka ogwokuna ogw’obufuzi bwa Yekoyakimu mutabani wa Yosiya kabaka wa Yuda, ogwali omwaka ogusooka ogw’obufuzi bwa kabaka Nebukadduneeza mu bwakabaka bwa Babulooni.
2 which he spoke to all the people of Juda, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, saying,
Awo Yeremiya nnabbi n’agamba abantu bonna aba Yuda n’abantu bonna abaali mu Yerusaalemi nti,
3 In the thirteenth year of Josias, son of Amos, king of Juda, even until this day for three and twenty years, I have both spoken to you, rising early and speaking,
Okuva mu mwaka ogw’ekkumi n’esatu ogw’obufuzi bwa Yosiya mutabani wa Amoni kabaka wa Yuda, gy’emyaka amakumi abiri mu esatu okutuusa leero, ekigambo kya Mukama kizze gye ndi era njogedde gye muli emirundi mingi, naye temufuddeeyo.
4 and I sent to you my servants the prophets, sending them early; (but you listened not, and listened not with your ears; ) saying,
Newaakubadde nga Mukama abaweerezza bannabbi be emirundi mingi, temuwulirizza wadde okufaayo.
5 Turn you every one from his evil way, and from your evil practices, and you shall dwell in the land which I gave to you and your fathers, of old and for ever.
Babagamba nti, “Mukyuke kaakano, buli omu ku mmwe okuva mu bikolwa bye ebibi, mulyoke musigale mu nsi Mukama gye yabawa mmwe ne bakitammwe emirembe gyonna.
6 Go you not after strange gods, to serve them, and to worship them, that you provoke me not by the works of your hands, to do you hurt.
Temugoberera bakatonda balala, temubaweereza wadde okubasinza; temunsunguwaza olw’ekyo emikono gyammwe kye gyakola, nneme okubakolako obulabe.”
7 But you listened not to me.
“Naye temwampuliriza, mwansunguwaza n’ekyo kye mwakola n’emikono gyammwe, era ne mwereetera akabi,” bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
8 Therefore thus says the Lord; Since you believed not my words,
Noolwekyo bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye nti, “Kubanga temuwulirizza bigambo byange,
9 behold I [will] send and take a family from the north, and will bring them against this land, and against the inhabitants of it, and against all the nations round about it, and I will make them utterly waste, and make them a desolation, and a hissing, and an everlasting reproach.
nzija kukoowoola abantu bonna ab’omu bukiikakkono n’omuddu wange Nebukadduneeza, balumbe ensi eno n’abantu baamu era n’ensi zonna ezibeetoolodde. Nzija kuzizikiririza ddala nzifuule ekintu eky’entiisa era eky’okusekererwa, era zoonoonekere ddala.
10 And I will destroy from [amongst] them the voice of joy, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, the scent of ointment, and the light of a candle.
Ndibagobako eddoboozi ery’essanyu era n’okujaguza, eddoboozi ery’awasa omugole n’ery’omugole, eddoboozi ly’olubengo n’okwaka kw’ettaala.
11 And all the land shall be a desolation; and they shall serve amongst the Gentiles seventy years.
Ensi eno yonna ejja kufuuka matongo, n’amawanga gano gajja kuweereza kabaka w’e Babulooni emyaka nsanvu.
12 And when the seventy years are fulfilled, I will take vengeance on that nation, and will make them a perpetual desolation.
“Naye emyaka ensanvu bwe giriggwako, ndibonereza kabaka w’e Babulooni n’eggwanga lye, ensi ya Babulooni olw’ekibi kyabwe, ngifuule matongo emirembe gyonna,” bw’ayogera Mukama.
13 And I will bring upon that land all my words which I have spoken against it, [even] all things that are written in this book.
“Ndireeta ku nsi eno ebintu byonna bye njogeddeko, ebyo byonna ebiwandiikiddwa ku muzingo guno era ne Yeremiya byategeezezza amawanga gano gonna.
Bo bennyini balifuulibwa baddu ba mawanga mangi era baddu ba bakabaka ab’ekitiibwa; ndibasasula ng’ebikolwa byabwe bwe biri n’emirimu gy’emikono gyabwe bwe giri.”
Bw’ati Mukama, Katonda wa Isirayiri bwe yaŋŋamba nti, “Twala ekikopo kino, okuva mu mukono gwange, ekijjudde wayini ow’obusungu bwange, okinywese amawanga gonna gye nnaakutuma okukibanywesa.
Bwe banaakinywa, bajja kugwa eddalu batagale olw’ekitala kye nnaabasindikamu.”
Awo ne ntwala ekikopo okuva mu Mukono gwa Mukama ne nkitwala eri amawanga gonna gye yantuma okukibanywesa;
Yerusaalemi n’ebibuga bya Yuda, ne bakabaka baabyo n’abakungu basaanewo era bafuuke ekintu eky’entiisa n’okuzikirira, n’okusekererwa n’ekikolimo nga bwe bali kaakano.
Falaawo, ye kabaka w’e Misiri, ne bakalabaalaba be, n’abakungu be n’abantu be bonna,
n’abagwira bonna abaaliyo; bakabaka ba Uzi bonna, ne bakabaka b’Abafirisuuti bonna, abo ab’e Asukulooni, n’e Gaza, n’e Ekuloni, n’abantu abaalekebwa e Asudodi,
n’e Edomu, n’e Mowaabu n’e Ammoni,
bakabaka bonna ab’e Tuulo ne Sidoni, bakabaka ab’oku lubalama ng’osomose ennyanja;
Dedani, n’e Teema, n’e Buuzi n’abo bonna abali mu bifo eby’ewala,
ne bakabaka bonna ab’e Buwalabu, ne bakabaka b’abannamawanga ababeera mu ddungu;
ne bakabaka bonna ab’e Zimuli, n’e Eramu n’e Meedi;
n’abo bonna bakabaka ab’omu bukiikakkono, abeewala, n’ab’okumpi, omu ku omu, obwakabaka bwonna obuli ku nsi. Oluvannyuma lwabo kabaka w’e Sesaki naye balikinywa.
“Era onoobagamba nti, ‘Bw’atyo bw’ayogera Mukama ow’Eggye, Katonda wa Isirayiri nti, Munywe mutamiire, museseme, mugwe muleme kuddayo kusituka olw’ekitala ekyo kye ŋŋenda okusindika mu mmwe.’
Naye bwe bagaana okuggya ekikopo mu mukono gwo okukinywa, bagambe nti, ‘Kino Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye ky’agamba nti, Muteekwa okukinywa!
Laba, ntandika okuzikiriza ekibuga ekiyitibwa Erinnya lyange, ddala munaagenda nga temubonerezeddwa? Mujja kubonerezebwa kubanga nkoowoola ekitala kikke ku abo bonna abali ku nsi, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye.’
“Kaakano bategeeze ebigambo bino byonna obagambe nti, “‘Mukama Katonda anaayogerera waggulu, era anaayimusa eddoboozi lye okuva mu kifo kye ekitukuvu awulugume n’amaanyi mangi nnyo ng’awakanya bonna abali mu nsi. Ajja kuleekaana ng’abasogozi abasamba emizabbibu, ng’aleekaanira abo abali ku nsi.
Eddoboozi lye liriwulirwa n’ensi gy’ekoma. Kubanga Mukama alisalira amawanga emisango gy’abavunaana, alisalira abantu bonna omusango, atte ababi n’ekitala,’” bw’ayogera Mukama.
Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye nti, “Laba okuzikirira kugenda kusaasaana kuva nsi ku nsi; enkuba ey’amaanyi ejja kuva ku nkomerero y’ensi.”
Mu kiseera ekyo abo abattiddwa Mukama bajja kubeera buli wamu okuva ku nsonda emu ey’ensi okutuuka ku ndala. Tebajja kukungubagirwa wadde okukuŋŋaanyizibwa oba okuziikibwa, naye banaaba ng’obusa obulekeddwa ku ttaka.
34 THE PROPHECIES OF JEREMIAS AGAINST THE NATIONS OF AeLAM.
Mukaabe mulaajane mmwe abasumba, mwevulunge mu ttaka, mmwe abakulu b’ebisibo. Kubanga obudde bwammwe obw’okuttibwa butuuse mujja kugwa mubetentebwe ng’ebibya eby’ebbumba.
35 Thus says the Lord, The bow of Aelam is broken, [even] the chief of their power.
Abasumba tebaabeeko na buddukiro, n’abakulu b’ebisibo tebaabeeko na wa kwekweka.
36 And I will bring upon Aelam the four winds from the four corners of heaven, and I will disperse them towards all these winds; and there shall be no nation [to] which they shall not come—[even] the outcasts of Aelam.
Muwulire okukaaba kw’abasumba, okwaziirana kw’abanannyini b’ebisibo, kubanga Mukama alizikiriza amalundiro gaabwe.
37 And I will put them in fear before their enemies that seek their life; and I will bring evils upon them according to my great anger; and I will send forth my sword after them, until I have utterly destroyed them.
Amalundiro amalungi galifuuka matongo olw’obusungu bwa Mukama obubuubuuka.
38 And I will set my throne in Aelam, and will send forth thence king and rulers.
Ajja kuleka ekisulo kye ng’empologoma bw’eva w’esula, n’ensi yaabwe ejja kusigala njereere olw’ekitala ky’omulumbaganyi era n’olw’obusungu bwa Mukama obw’entiisa.
39 But it shall come to pass at the end of days, that I will turn the captivity of Aelam, says the Lord.
