Isaiah 18
1 Oh, the lande shadowing with winges, which is beyond the riuers of Ethiopia,
Zikusanze, ggwe ensi ey’ebiwaawaatiro ebikwakwaya, eri emitala w’emigga gya Kuusi,
2 Sending ambassadours by the Sea, euen in vessels of reedes vpon the waters, saying, Go, ye swift messengers, to a nation that is scattered abroade, and spoyled, vnto a terrible people from their beginning euen hitherto: a nation by litle and litle, euen troden vnder foote, whose land the floods haue spoyled.
etuma ababaka ne bagendera mu maato ag’ebitoogo ku nnyanja. Mugende mmwe ababaka abangu, eri abantu abawanvu ab’emibiri emiweweevu, eri abantu abatiibwa abeewala n’ab’okumpi, eggwanga ery’amaanyi eryogera olulimi olutamanyiddwa, ensi eyawulwamu emigga.
3 Al ye the inhabitants of ye world and dwellers in the earth, shall see when he setteth vp a signe in the mountaines, and when he bloweth the trumpet, ye shall heare.
Mmwe mwenna abantu abali mu nsi, mmwe ababeera ku nsi, bendera lweriwanikibwa ku nsozi, muligiraba, era ekkondeere bwe lirifuuyibwa, muliriwulira.
4 For so the Lord saide vnto me, I will rest and beholde in my tabernacle, as the heate drying vp the rayne, and as a cloude of dewe in the heate of haruest.
Kubanga bw’atyo Mukama bw’aŋŋambye nti, “Ndyesirikira ntunule nga nsinziira ewange, ng’olubugumu olutemagana mu musana, ng’ekire ky’omusulo mu lubugumu olw’omu biro eby’amakungula.”
5 For afore the haruest when the floure is finished, and the fruite is riping in the floure, then he shall cut downe the branches with hookes, and shall take away, and cut off the boughes:
Kubanga okukungula kuliba tekunatuuka, okumulisa nga kuwedde, n’ekimuli nga kifuuka zabbibu eyengedde, aliwawaagula obutabi n’ebiwabyo, n’amatabi agalanda aligasalira.
6 They shall be left together vnto the foules of the mountaines, and to the beastes of the earth: for the foule shall sommer vpon it, and euery beast of the earth shall winter vpon it.
Gonna galirekerwa ennyonyi ez’oku nsozi ezirya ebiramu n’ensolo ez’ensi. Era ennyonyi ezirya ebiramu zirye okwo mu biseera by’ekyeya, n’ensolo zonna ez’omu nsiko zirye okwo mu biseera by’obunnyogovu.
7 At that time shall a present be brought vnto the Lord of hostes, (a people that is scattered abroade, and spoyled, and of a terrible people from their beginning hitherto, a nation, by litle and litle euen troden vnder foote, whose land the riuers haue spoyled) to the place of the Name of the Lord of hostes, euen the mount Zion.
Mu kiseera ekyo Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye balimuleetera ebirabo, ensi ey’abantu abawanvu ab’emibiri emiweweevu, abantu abatiibwa abeewala n’abookumpi, ensi ey’eryanyi, eyawulwamu emigga, ku lusozi Sayuuni ekifo ky’erinnya lya Mukama Ayinzabyonna.
