Isaiah 22
1 The burden of the valley of vision. What aileth thee nowe that thou art wholy gone vp vnto the house toppes?
Obunnabbi obukwata ku Kiwonvu ky’Okwolesebwa: Kiki ekikutawanya kaakano, n’okulinnya n’olinnya waggulu ku busolya,
2 Thou that art full of noise, a citie full of brute, a ioyous citie: thy slaine men shall not bee slaine with sworde, nor die in battell.
ggwe ekibuga ekijjudde oluyoogaano, ggwe ekibuga eky’amasanyu era eky’ebinyumu? Abantu bo abattibwa, tebaafa kitala newaakubadde okufiira mu lutalo.
3 All thy princes shall flee together from the bowe: they shalbe bound: all that shall be found in thee, shall be bound together, which haue fled from farre.
Abakulembeze bo bonna baddukidde wamu; bawambiddwa awatali kulwana. Bonna baakwatibwa ne batwalibwa wamu nga basibe, kubanga badduka.
4 Therefore said I, Turne away from me: I wil weepe bitterly: labour not to comfort mee for the destruction of the daughter of my people.
Kyenava njogera nti, “Munveeko, mundeke nkaabire ddala nnyo. Temugezaako kunsaasira olw’okuzikirizibwa kw’omuwala w’abantu bange.”
5 For it is a day of trouble, and of ruine, and of perplexitie by the Lord God of hostes in the valley of vision, breaking downe the citie: and a crying vnto the mountaines.
Mukama, Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye alina olunaku olw’akatabanguko, olw’okulinyirirwa n’entiisa mu Kiwonvu ky’Okwolesebwa; olunaku olw’okumenya bbugwe, n’okukaabirira ensozi.
6 And Elam bare the quiuer in a mans charet with horsemen, and Kir vncouered the shield.
Eramu ayambalidde omufuko gw’obusaale, n’atwala n’abavuzi b’amagaali ge n’embalaasi, Kiri asabuukulula engabo.
7 And thy chiefe valleis were full of charets, and the horsemen set themselues in aray against the gate.
Ebiwonvu byo ebisinga obulungi bijjudde amagaali, n’abeebagala embalaasi bassibbwa ku wankaaki.
8 And hee discouered the couering of Iudah: and thou didest looke in that day to the armour of the house of the forest.
Okwerinda kwa Yuda kuggyiddwawo. Ku lunaku olwo watunuulira ebyokulwanyisa eby’omu Lubiri olw’Ekibira.
9 And ye haue seene the breaches of the citie of Dauid: for they were many, and ye gathered the waters of the lower poole.
Walaba amabanga agaali mu kwerinda kw’Ekibuga kya Dawudi, wakuŋŋaanya amazzi mu Kidiba eky’Emmanga.
10 And yee nombred the houses of Ierusalem, and the houses haue yee broken downe to fortifie the wall,
Wabala ebizimbe mu Yerusaalemi n’omenya amayumba okusobola okunyweza bbugwe.
11 And haue also made a ditche betweene the two walles, for the waters of the olde poole, and haue not looked vnto the maker thereof, neither had respect vnto him that formed it of olde.
Wasima ekidiba omuterekebwa amazzi wakati w’ebisenge ebibiri, n’okuŋŋaanya ag’ekidiba ekikadde, naye tewatunuulira Oyo eyakisima, wadde okussaamu ekitiibwa Oyo eyakiteekateeka mu biro eby’edda.
12 And in that day did the Lord God of hosts call vnto weeping and mourning, and to baldnes and girding with sackecloth.
Ku lunaku olwo Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye yalangirira okukaaba n’okukuba ebiwoobe, n’okwemwako enviiri n’okwambala ebibukutu.
13 And beholde, ioy and gladnes, slaying oxen and killing sheepe, eating flesh, and drinking wine, eating and drinking: for to morowe we shall die.
Naye laba, ssanyu na kujaguza, okubaaga ente n’okutta endiga, okulya ennyama n’okunywa envinnyo. Mwogere nti, “Leka tulye, era tunywe kubanga enkya tunaafa.”
14 And it was declared in ye eares of the Lord of hostes. Surely this iniquitie shall not be purged from you, til ye die, saith the Lord God of hostes.
Mukama ow’Eggye akimbikulidde n’aŋŋamba nti, “Ekibi kino tekirisonyiyibwa wadde okuggyibwawo okutuusa lw’olifa,” bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye.
15 Thus sayeth the Lord God of hostes, Goe, get thee to that treasurer, to Shebna, the steward of the house, and say,
Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye nti, “Genda eri omuwanika oyo, eri Sabuna avunaanyizibwa olubiri omugambe nti,
16 What haste thou to doe here? and whome hast thou here? that thou shouldest here hewe thee out a sepulchre, as he that heweth out his sepulchre in an hie place, or that graueth an habitation for him selfe in a rocke?
Okola ki wano era ani yakuwadde olukusa okwetemera entaana wano, n’otema n’amaanyi entaana yo waggulu mu lwazi, ne weerongoosereza eyo ekifo eky’okuwummuliramu?
17 Beholde, the Lord wil carie thee away with a great captiuitie, and will surely couer thee.
“Weegendereze Mukama Katonda anaatera okukuvumbagira, akuggyewo ggwe omusajja ow’amaanyi.
18 He wil surely rolle and turne thee like a bal in a large countrey: there shalt thou die, and there the charets of thy glory shalbe the shame of thy lordes house.
Alikuzingazingako, n’akukanyuga mu nsi engazi, nga bwe yandikanyuze omupiira ogusambwa. Eyo gy’olifiira, era eyo amagaali go ag’ekitiibwa gye galisigala, ggwe ensonyi ez’ennyumba ya Mukama wo.
19 And I wil driue thee from thy station, and out of thy dwelling will he destroy thee.
Ndikuggya ku ntebe yo, era oliggyibwa mu kifo kyo.
20 And in that day will I call my seruant Eliakim the sonne of Hilkiah,
“Mu biro ebyo nditumya omuweereza wange Eriyakimu mutabani wa Kirukiya.
21 And with thy garments will I clothe him, and with thy girdle will I strengthen him: thy power also will I commit into his hande, and hee shalbe a father of the inhabitats of Ierusalem, and of the house of Iudah.
Ndimwambaza ekyambalo kyo, ne munyweza n’olukoba lwo, ne mukwasa obuyinza bwo. Aliba kitaawe w’abo ababeera mu Yerusaalemi, n’eri ennyumba ya Yuda.
22 And the key of the house of Dauid will I lay vpon his shoulder: so hee shall open, and no man shall shut: and he shall shut, and no man shall open.
Ndimukwasa ekisumuluzo ky’ennyumba ya Dawudi; bw’aliggulawo tewaliba aggalawo, bw’aliggalawo tewaliba aggulawo.
23 And I will fasten him as a naile in a sure place, and hee shall be for the throne of glorie to his fathers house.
Ndimunyweza mu kifo ng’enkondo ennene, era aliba ntebe ya kitiibwa eri ennyumba ya kitaawe.
24 And they shall hang vpon him all the glorie of his fathers house, euen of the nephewes and posteritie all small vessels, from the vessels of the cuppes, euen to all the instruments of musike.
Ekitiibwa ky’ennyumba ye kiribeera ku nnyumba ye, ne ku zadde lye ne ku nda ye yonna, ne ku bintu bye ebinywerwamu, okuva ku bibya okutuuka ku nsumbi.”
25 In that day, sayeth the Lord of hostes, shall the naile, that is fastned in the sure place, depart and shall be broken, and fall: and the burden, that was vpon it, shall bee cut off: for the Lord hath spoken it.
Bw’ati bw’ayogera Katonda ow’Eggye nti, “Ku lunaku olwo, enkondo ennene eyakomererwa mu kifo n’enywera erisalibwa, n’eneguka, n’egwa, n’omugugu gw’ekutte gulisarwako.” Mukama ayogedde.
