< Isaiah 52 >

1 Aries, arise: put on thy strength, O Zion: put on thy garments of thy beautie, O Ierusalem, the holy citie: for hencefoorth there shall no more come into thee the vncircumcised and the vncleane.
Zuukuka, zuukuka, oyambale amaanyi go, ggwe Sayuuni. Ggwe Yerusaalemi ekibuga ekitukuvu, teekako ebyambalo byo ebitemagana. Kubanga okuva leero mu miryango gyo temukyayingira mu atali mukomole n’atali mulongoofu.
2 Shake thy selfe from the dust: arise, and sit downe, O Ierusalem: loose the bandes of thy necke, O thou captiue daughter, Zion.
Weekunkumuleko enfuufu, yimuka otuule ku ntebe ey’obwakabaka ggwe Yerusaalemi. Weesumulule enjegere mu bulago bwo, ggwe Omuwala wa Sayuuni eyanyagibwa.
3 For thus sayeth the Lord, Yee were solde for naught: therefore shall ye be redeemed without money.
Kubanga bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti, “Mwatundibwa bwereere era mujja kununulibwa awatali kusasula nsimbi.”
4 For thus saith the Lord God, My people went downe afore time into Egypt to soiourne there, and Asshur oppressed them without cause.
Kubanga bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Ayinzabyonna nti, “Omulundi ogwasooka abantu bange baagenda e Misiri okusengayo, oluvannyuma, Omwasuli n’abajooga.
5 Nowe therefore what haue I here, saith the Lord, that my people is taken away for naught, and they that rule ouer them, make them to howle, saith the Lord? and my Name all the day continually is blasphemed?
“Kaakano kiki ate kye ndaba wano? “Kubanga abantu bange baatwalirwa bwereere era abo ababafuga babasekerera,” bw’ayogera Mukama. “Erinnya lyange livvoolebwa olunaku lwonna.
6 Therefore my people shall know my Name: therefore they shall know in that day, that I am he that doe speake: beholde, it is I.
Mu biseera ebijja abantu bange balimmanya. Olunaku lujja lwe balitegeera nga nze nakyogera. Weewaawo, Nze.”
7 How beautifull vpon the mountaines are the feete of him, that declareth and publisheth peace? that declareth good tidings, and publisheth saluation, saying vnto Zion, Thy God reigneth?
Nga birungi ku nsozi ebigere by’oyo aleeta amawulire amalungi, alangirira emirembe, aleeta ebigambo ebirungi, alangirira obulokozi, agamba Sayuuni nti, “Katonda wo afuga.”
8 The voyce of thy watchmen shalbe heard: they shall lift vp their voyce, and shoute together: for they shall see eye to eye, when the Lord shall bring againe Zion.
Wuliriza! Amaloboozi g’abakuumi bo gawulikika, gayimusiddwa. Bonna awamu bajaguza olw’essanyu. Kubanga okudda kwa Mukama mu Sayuuni balikulaba n’amaaso gaabwe.
9 O ye desolate places of Ierusalem, bee glad and reioyce together: for the Lord hath comforted his people: he hath redeemed Ierusalem.
Mubaguke okuyimba ennyimba ez’essanyu mwenna, mmwe ebifo bya Yerusaalemi ebyazika. Kubanga Mukama asanyusizza abantu be, anunudde Yerusaalemi.
10 The Lord hath made bare his holy arme in the sight of all the Gentiles, and all the endes of the earth shall see the saluation of our God.
Mukama aliraga omukono gwe omutukuvu eri amawanga gonna, bagulabe. Enkomerero z’ensi zonna ziriraba obulokozi bwa Katonda waffe.
11 Depart, depart ye: goe out from thence and touche no vncleane thing: goe out of the middes of her: be ye cleane, that beare the vessels of the Lord.
Mugende, mugende muveewo awo. Temukwata ku kintu kyonna kitali kirongoofu. Mukifulumemu mubeere balongoofu mmwe abasitula ebyombo bya Mukama.
12 For ye shall not goe out with haste, nor depart by fleeing away: but the Lord will goe before you, and the God of Israel will gather you together.
Naye temulivaamu nga mwanguyiriza so temuligenda nga mudduka; kubanga Mukama alibakulembera abasookeyo; Katonda wa Isirayiri y’alibakuuma.
13 Beholde, my seruant shall prosper: he shall be exalted and extolled, and be very hie.
Laba, omuweereza wange by’akola alibikozesa magezi, aliyimusibwa asitulibwe, era assibwemu nnyo ekitiibwa.
14 As many were astonied at thee (his visage was so deformed of men, and his forme of the sonnes of men)
Ng’abaamulaba ne bennyamira bwe baali abangi, endabika ye ng’eyonoonese nnyo nga takyafaananika, era ng’eyonoonese evudde ku y’abantu,
15 so shall hee sprinkle many nations: the Kings shall shut their mouthes at him: for that which had not bene tolde them, shall they see, and that which they had not heard, shall they vnderstande.
bw’atyo bw’anawuniikiriza amawanga mangi; bakabaka balibunira ku lulwe; kubanga ekyo ekitababulirwanga balikiraba, era ekyo kye batawulirangako, balikitegeera.
