< Daniel 9 >
1 In the first yeere of Darius the sonne of Ahashuerosh, of the seede of the Medes, which was made King ouer the realme of the Caldeans,
Mu mwaka ogw’olubereberye ogwa Daliyo mutabani wa Akaswero Omumeedi, gwe yaliiramu obwakabaka bwa Bakaludaaya,
2 Euen in the first yeere of his reigne, I Daniel vnderstood by bookes the nomber of the yeeres, whereof the Lord had spoken vnto Ieremiah the Prophet, that he would accomplish seuentie yeeres in the desolation of Ierusalem.
mu mwaka ogwo ogw’olubereberye, nze Danyeri ne ntegeera amakulu ag’ebyawandiikibwa, ng’ekigambo kya Mukama bwe kiri kye yawa Yeremiya nnabbi, ng’okubonaabona kwa Yerusaalemi kulitwala emyaka nsanvu.
3 And I turned my face vnto the Lord God, and sought by prayer and supplications with fasting and sackcloth and ashes.
Awo ne nkyukira Mukama Katonda ne nnoonya okubeerwa okuva gyali nga nsaba era nga neegayirira, nga nsiiba era nga nyambadde ebibukutu nga neesiize evvu.
4 And I prayed vnto the Lord my God, and made my confession, saying, Oh Lord God, which art great and fearefull, and keepest couenant and mercy toward them which loue thee, and toward them that keepe thy commandements,
Ne nsaba Mukama Katonda wange ne mwatulira nti, “Ayi Mukama omukulu era ow’entiisa, akuuma endagaano ye so n’okwagala kwo tekujjulukuka eri abo bonna abakwagala era abagondera ebiragiro byo,
5 We haue sinned, and haue committed iniquitie and haue done wickedly, yea, we haue rebelled, and haue departed from thy precepts, and from thy iudgements.
twonoonye era tusobezza, tukoze eby’ekyejo n’eby’obujeemu, era
6 For we would not obey thy seruants the Prophets, which spake in thy Name to our Kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, and to all the people of the land.
tetwawuliriza baddu bo bannabbi, abaayogeranga mu linnya lyo eri bakabaka baffe, n’eri abalangira baffe, n’eri bajjajjaffe, n’eri abantu bonna ab’omu nsi.
7 O Lord, righteousnes belongeth vnto thee, and vnto vs open shame, as appeareth this day vnto euery man of Iudah, and to the inhabitants of Ierusalem: yea, vnto all Israel, both neere and farre off, through all the countreys, whither thou hast driuen them, because of their offences, that they haue committed against thee.
“Mukama oli mutukuvu, naye olunaku lwa leero tuswadde, abantu ba Yuda, n’abatuuze ba Yerusaalemi, ne Isirayiri yenna, abali okumpi n’abali ewala mu nsi zonna gye wabawaŋŋangusiriza olw’obutaba beesigwa gy’oli.
8 O Lord, vnto vs apperteineth open shame, to our Kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, because we haue sinned against thee.
Ayi Mukama, ffe ne bakabaka baffe, n’abalangira baffe, ne bajjajjaffe tuswadde kubanga twonoonye.
9 Yet compassion and forgiuenesse is in the Lord our God, albeit we haue rebelled against him.
Mukama Katonda waffe ajjudde okusaasira n’okusonyiwa, newaakubadde nga tumujeemedde,
10 For we haue not obeyed the voyce of the Lord our God, to walke in his lawes, which he had laide before vs by the ministerie of his seruants the Prophets.
ne tutawuliriza ddoboozi lya Mukama Katonda waffe, newaakubadde okukuuma amateeka ge, ge yatuwa ng’ayita mu baddu be bannabbi.
11 Yea, all Israel haue transgressed thy Lawe, and are turned backe, and haue not heard thy voyce: therefore the curse is powred vpon vs, and the othe that is written in the Lawe of Moses the seruant of God, because we haue sinned against him.
Isirayiri yenna bamenye amateeka go ne bakuvaako, era bakujeemedde. “Noolwekyo ebikolimo n’ebirayiro ebyawandiikibwa mu mateeka ga Musa omuddu wa Mukama kyebivudde bitutuukako kubanga twayonoona mu maaso go.
12 And he hath confirmed his wordes, which he spake against vs, and against our iudges that iudged vs, by bringing vpon vs a great plague: for vnder the whole heauen hath not bene the like, as hath bene brought vpon Ierusalem.
Otuukirizza ebigambo bye watwogerako, n’eri abakulembeze baffe, bw’otuleeseeko akabi akanene; era wansi w’eggulu tewabangawo kintu kinene bwe kityo ekyakolebwa, ng’ekyo ekituuse ku Yerusaalemi.
13 All this plague is come vpon vs, as it is written in the Lawe of Moses: yet made we not our prayer before the Lord our God, that we might turne from our iniquities and vnderstand thy trueth.
Nga bwe kyawandiikibwa mu mateeka ga Musa, bwe bityo ebisobyo byonna bwe byatutuukako, naye ate nga tetunneegayirira kisa kya Mukama Katonda waffe, okulekayo ebikolwa byaffe ebitali bya butuukirivu tusseeyo omwoyo okugoberera amazima.
14 Therefore hath the Lord made ready the plague, and brought it vpon vs: for the Lord our God is righteous in all his works which he doeth: for we would not heare his voyce.
Mukama kyeyava talwa kutuleetako buzibu obwo, kubanga Mukama Katonda waffe mutuukirivu mu buli ky’akola, naye tetugondedde ddoboozi lye.
15 And nowe, O Lord our God, that hast brought thy people out of the land of Egypt with a mightie hand, and hast gotten thee renoume, as appeareth this day, we haue sinned, we haue done wickedly.
“Ggwe, Ayi Mukama Katonda waffe eyaggya abantu bo mu nsi ey’e Misiri n’omukono gwo ogw’amaanyi ne weekolera erinnya, eryayatiikirira ne leero, twayonoona ne tukola ebitali bya butuukirivu.
16 O Lord, according to all thy righteousnes, I beseech thee, let thine anger and thy wrath be turned away from thy citie Ierusalem thine holy Mountaine: for because of our sinnes, and for the iniquities of our fathers, Ierusalem and thy people are a reproche to all that are about vs.
Ayi Mukama, ng’obutuukirivu bwo bwonna bwe buli, obusungu bwo n’ekiruyi kyo obiggye ku kibuga kyo Yerusaalemi, olusozi lwo olutukuvu, kubanga olw’ebibi byaffe n’ebikolwa byaffe ebitali bya butuukirivu ebya bajjajjaffe, tufuuse eky’okusekererwa eri abatwetoolodde bonna.
17 Nowe therefore, O our God, heare the prayer of thy serunant, and his supplications, and cause thy face to shine vpon thy Sanctuarie, that lyeth waste for the Lords sake.
“Kaakano, Ayi Katonda waffe, owulire okusaba n’okwegayirira kw’omuddu wo, olw’okusaasira kwo Ayi Mukama otunule eri ekifo kyo ekitukuvu.
18 O my God, encline thine eare and heare: open thine eyes, and beholde our desolations, and the citie whereupon thy Name is called: for we doe not present our supplications before thee for our owne righteousnes, but for thy great tender mercies.
Ayi Katonda wange, otege okutu kwo owulirize, otunuulire okuzika kw’ekibuga ekyatuumibwa erinnya lyo, kubanga tetuleeta byetaago byaffe eri ggwe olw’obutuukirivu bwaffe, wabula olw’okusaasira kwo okungi.
19 O Lord, heare, O Lord forgiue, O Lord consider, and doe it: deferre not, for thine owne sake, O my God: for thy Name is called vpon thy citie, and vpon thy people.
Ayi Mukama otuwulire! Ayi Mukama, otusonyiwe! Ayi Mukama otuwulire era obeeko ne ky’okolawo! Olw’okusaasira kwo, Ayi Katonda wange oleme okulwa, kubanga ekibuga kyo n’abantu bo n’eggwanga lyo bayitibwa Erinnya lyo.”
20 And whiles I was speaking and praying, and confessing my sinne, and the sinne of my people Israel, and did present my supplication before the Lord my God, for the holy Mountaine of my God,
Awo bwe nnali nga njogera era nga nsaba, nga njatula ebibi byange n’ebibi by’abantu bange Isirayiri, nga neegayirira Mukama Katonda wange ku lw’olusozi lwe olutukuvu,
21 Yea, while I was speaking in prayer, euen the man Gabriel, whome I had seene before in the vision, came flying, and touched mee about the time of the euening oblation.
awo mu kiseera ekyo nga nkyasaba, omusajja Gabulyeri, gwe nalaba mu kwolesebwa okwasooka, n’ajja gye ndi mu mbuyaga ey’amaanyi mu kiseera ekya ssaddaaka ey’akawungeezi.
22 And he informed me, and talked with me, and sayd, O Daniel, I am now come forth to giue thee knowledge and vnderstanding.
N’aŋŋamba nti, “Danyeri, kaakano nzize okukuwa amagezi n’okutegeera.
23 At the beginning of thy supplications the commandement came foorth, and I am come to shewe thee, for thou art greatly beloued: therefore vnderstande the matter and consider the vision.
Amangu nga waakatandika okusaba, okwegayirira kwo kwaddibwamu era nzize okukutegeeza, kubanga oli mwagalwa nnyo. Noolwekyo ssaayo omwoyo eri ekigambo kino, otegeere bye wayolesebwa.
24 Seuentie weekes are determined vpon thy people and vpon thine holy citie, to finish the wickednes, and to seale vp the sinnes, and to reconcile the inquitie, and to bring in euerlasting righteousnesse, and to seale vp the vision and prophecie, and to anoynt the most Holy.
“Wiiki nsavu ze ziweereddwa abantu bo n’ekibuga kyo ekitukuvu okukomya ebikolwa byabwe ebibi, n’okuleka ebibi, n’okutangiririrwa olw’ebikolwa ebitali bya butuukirivu, n’okuleeta obutuukirivu obutaliggwaawo, n’okukakasa ebyo ebyayolesebwa n’ebyo ebyalangibwa, n’okufuka amafuta ku asinga obutukuvu.
25 Knowe therefore and vnderstande, that from the going foorth of the commandement to bring againe the people, and to builde Ierusalem, vnto Messiah the prince, shall be seuen weekes and threescore and two weekes, and the streete shalbe built againe, and the wall euen in a troublous time.
“Manya era tegeera ng’okuva ne kaakano ekiragiro nga bwe kiweereddwa ku kuzzibwawo kwa Yerusaalemi n’okutuusa ku kujja okw’omufuzi oyo eyafukibwako amafuta, waliba ebbanga lya wiiki musanvu. N’oluvannyuma kirizimbibwa mu wiiki nkaaga mu bbiri ne kiteekebwamu enguudo n’olusalosalo, newaakubadde nga biriba biro bya kutegana.
26 And after threescore and two weekes, shall Messiah be slaine, and shall haue nothing, and the people of the prince that shall come, shall destroy the citie and the Sanctuarie, and the end thereof shalbe with a flood: and vnto the end of the battell it shalbe destroyed by desolations.
N’oluvannyuma lwa wiiki enkaaga mu ebbiri, eyafukibwako amafuta alisalibwako, era taliba na kintu. Abantu ab’omufuzi balijja ne bazikiriza ekibuga n’awatukuvu, n’enkomerero ye erijja ng’amataba, n’entalo era n’okuzika okwalagirwa biryeyongera okutuusa ku nkomerero.
27 And he shall confirme the couenant with many for one weeke: and in the middes of the weeke he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the ouerspreading of the abominations, he shall make it desolate, euen vntill the consummation determined shalbe powred vpon the desolate.
Alikola endagaano enywevu n’abantu bangi okumala wiiki emu, naye wakati wa wiiki eyo aliggyawo emikolo gya ssaddaaka n’ebiweebwayo. Ne ku kiwaawaatiro eky’ebyemizizo kulijjirako oyo aleeta okubonaabona, okutuusa ekiseera eky’enkomerero ekyalagirwa nga kituukiridde ku ye.”
