< Ezekiel 29 >

1 In the tenth yeere, and in the tenth moneth in the twelfth day of the moneth, the word of the Lord came vnto me, saying,
Awo mu mwaka ogw’ekkumi, mu mwezi ogw’ekkumi ku lunaku olw’ekkumi n’ebbiri, ekigambo kya Mukama Katonda ne kinzijira n’aŋŋamba nti,
2 Sonne of man, set thy face against Pharaoh the King of Egypt, and prophecie against him, and against all Egypt.
“Omwana w’omuntu, tunula eri Falaawo, ye kabaka w’e Misiri olangirire obunnabbi gy’ali n’eri Misiri yonna.
3 Speake, and say, Thus sayth the Lord God, Beholde, I come against thee, Pharaoh King of Egypt, the great dragon, that lieth in the middes of his riuers, which hath saide, The riuer is mine, and I haue made it for my selfe.
Yogera gy’ali nti, ‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti, “‘Nkulinako ensonga, Falaawo, ggwe kabaka w’e Misiri, ggwe ogusota ogunene ogugalamidde wakati mu migga gyagwo, ogwogera nti, “Kiyira wange, era nze nnamwekolera.”
4 But I will put hookes in thy chawes, and I will cause the fish of thy riuers to sticke vnto thy scales, and I will drawe thee out of the middes of thy riuers, and all the fishe of thy riuers shall sticke vnto thy scales.
Nditeeka amalobo mu mba zo, era ndireetera n’ebyennyanja eby’omu migga gyo okukwatira ku magamba go. Ndikusikayo mu migga gyo ng’ebyennyanja byonna bikwatidde ku magamba go.
5 And I will leaue thee in the wildernes, both thee and al the fish of thy riuers: thou shalt fal vpon ye open field: thou shalt not be brought together, nor gathered: for I haue giue thee for meat to the beasts of the field, and to the foules of heauen.
Ndikutwala mu ddungu, ggwe n’ebyennyanja byonna eby’omu migga gyo. Oligwa ku ttale, so tolikuŋŋaanyizibwa newaakubadde okulondebwalondebwa. Ndikuwaayo okuba emmere eri ensolo enkambwe ez’oku nsi n’eri ebinyonyi eby’omu bbanga.
6 And al the inhabitants of Egypt shall know that I am the Lord, because they haue ben a staffe of reede to the house of Israel.
Awo bonna ababeera mu Misiri balimanya nga nze Mukama Katonda. “‘Obadde muggo gwa lumuli eri ennyumba ya Isirayiri.
7 When they tooke holde of thee with their hand, thou diddest breake, and rent all their shoulder: and when they leaned vpon thee, thou brakest and madest all their loynes to stand vpright.
Bwe bakunyweza n’emikono gyabwe, n’omenyekamenyeka, n’oyuza ebibegabega byabwe; bwe baakwesigamako, n’omenyeka, era n’okutula n’emigongo gyabwe.
8 Therefore thus sayeth the Lord God, Beholde, I will bring a sworde vpon thee, and destroy man and beast out of thee,
“‘Mukama Katonda kyava ayogera nti: Ndikujjira n’ekitala, n’enzita abantu bo n’ebisolo byabwe.
9 And the land of Egypt shalbe desolate, and waste, and they shall know that I am ye Lord: because he hath said, The riuer is mine, and I haue made it,
Ensi ey’e Misiri erifuuka matongo era ensiko, balyoke bamanye nga nze Mukama Katonda. “‘Kubanga wayogera nti, “Kiyira wange, nze namukola,”
10 Behold, therefore I come vpon thee, and vpon thy riuers, and I will make the land of Egypt vtterly waste and desolate from the towre of Seueneh, euen vnto the borders of the blacke Mores.
kyennaava mbeera n’ensonga eri ggwe n’eri emigga gyo, era ndifuula ensi ey’e Misiri okuba ensiko enjereere ejjudde amatongo okuva ku mulongooti ogw’e Sevene okutuuka ku nsalo ey’e Buwesiyopya.
11 No foote of man shall passe by it, nor foote of beast shall passe by it, neither shall it be inhabited fourtie yeeres.
Tewaliba kigere kya muntu newaakubadde ky’ensolo ekiri giyitamu, so teribeerwamu okumala emyaka amakumi ana.
12 And I wil make the land of Egypt desolate in the middes of the countries, that are desolate, and her cities shall be desolate among the cities that are desolate, for fourtie yeeres: and I wil scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and wil disperse them through the countreis.
Ndifuula ensi ey’e Misiri okuba amatongo wakati mu nsi ezaazika, era n’ebibuga byakyo biriba byereere okumala emyaka amakumi ana. Ndibunya Abamisiri mu mawanga ne mbataataanyiza mu nsi nnyingi.
13 Yet thus saieth the Lord God, At the end of fourtie yeeres will I gather the Egyptians from the people, where they were scattered,
“‘Naye Mukama Katonda agamba nti; Oluvannyuma lw’emyaka amakumi ana ndikuŋŋaanya Abamisiri okuva mu mawanga gye baasaasaanira,
14 And I wil bring againe the captiuitie of Egypt, and will cause them to returne into the land of Pathros, into the lande of their habitation, and they shalbe there a small kingdome.
era ndibakomyawo okuva mu busibe ne mbazza mu nsi ey’e Pasulo, ensi eya bajjajjaabwe, era eyo baliba bwakabaka obwajeezebwa.
15 It shall be the smallest of the kingdomes, neither shall it exalt it selfe any more aboue the nations: for I will diminish them, that they shall no more rule the nations.
Bulisinga obwakaba bwonna okujeezebwa, so tebulyegulumiza nate okusinga amawanga amalala. Ndiginafuyiza ddala, era tebalifuga nate amawanga.
16 And it shall be no more the confidence of the house of Israel, to bring their iniquitie to remembrance by looking after them, so shall they knowe, that I am the Lord God.
Misiri talyesigibwa nate abantu ba Isirayiri, naye eriba kijjukizo eky’ekibi kubanga baabakyukira nga banoonya okuyambibwa. Olwo balimanya nga nze Mukama Katonda.’”
17 In the seuen and twentieth yeere also in the first moneth, and in the first day of the moneth, came the word of the Lord vnto me, saying,
Awo mu mwaka ogw’amakumi abiri mu omusanvu, mu mwezi ogw’olubereberye ku lunaku olusooka mu mwezi, ekigambo kya Mukama ne kinzijira n’aŋŋamba nti,
18 Sonne of man, Nebuchad-nezzar King of Babel caused his armie to serue a great seruice against Tyrus: euery head was made balde, and euery shoulder was made bare: yet had he no wages, nor his armie for Tyrus, for the seruice that he serued against it.
“Omwana w’omuntu, Nebukadduneeza kabaka w’e Babulooni yaweereza eggye lye ne lirumba Ttuulo, buli mutwe ne gufuna ekiwalaata ne buli kibegabega ne kimenyebwa, naye ye n’eggye lye ne bataweebwa mpeera olw’okulumba Ttuulo.
19 Therefore thus sayth the Lord God, Beholde, I will giue the land of Egypt vnto Nebuchad-nezzar the King of Babel, and he shall take her multitude, and spoyle her spoyle, and take her pray, and it shall be the wages for his armie.
Mukama Katonda kyava ayogera nti, Nebukadduneeza kabaka w’e Babulooni ndimuwa Misiri ne yeetikka obugagga bwe, n’abanyagira ddala era y’eriba empeera ey’eggye lye.
20 I haue giuen him the land of Egypt for his labour, that he serued against it, because they wrought for me, sayth the Lord God.
Mmuwadde ensi ey’e Misiri okuba empeera ye gye yafubirira kubanga ye n’eggye lye bankolera omulimu, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
21 In that day will I cause the horne of the house of Israel to growe, and I will giue thee an open mouth in the middes of them, and they shall knowe that I am the Lord.
“Ku lunaku olwo ndiyimusa ejjembe ery’amaanyi mu nnyumba ya Isirayiri, era ndiyasamya akamwa ko mu bo. Olwo balimanya nga nze Mukama.”
