Isaiah 55
1 Ho, euery one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and ye that haue no siluer, come, bye and eate: come, I say, bye wine and milke without siluer and without money.
“Kale mujje, mmwe mwenna abalumwa ennyonta, mujje eri amazzi. Mujje mmwe abatalina ssente zigula, mujje muweebwe bye mwagala, envinnyo oba amata ebitali bya kugula ebitaliiko miwendo gya kusasula.
2 Wherefore doe ye lay out siluer and not for bread? and your labour without being satisfied? hearken diligently vnto me, and eate that which is good, and let your soule delite in fatnes.
Lwaki musaasaanya ensimbi zammwe ku ebyo ebitali bya kulya muteganira ebyo ebitakkusa? Mumpulirize, mumpulirize n’obwegendereza mulye ebyo ebirungi, emmeeme yammwe eneesanyuka nnyo.
3 Encline your eares, and come vnto me: heare, and your soule shall liue, and I will make an euerlasting couenant with you, euen the sure mercies of Dauid.
Mumpulirize mujje gye ndi. Muwulirize mubeere balamu; nnaabakolera endagaano ey’olubeerera, era egyo gy’emikisa gyange n’okwagala bye nasuubiza Dawudi.
4 Beholde, I gaue him for a witnes to the people, for a prince and a master vnto the people.
Laba namufuula omujulirwa eri abantu, omukulembeze era omugabe w’abantu.
5 Beholde, thou shalt call a nation that thou knowest not, and a nation that knew not thee, shall runne vnto thee, because of the Lord thy God, and the holy one of Israel: for hee hath glorified thee.
Laba oliyita amawanga g’otomanyi, era amawanga g’otomanyi galyanguwa okujja gy’oli. Kiribaawo olw’obuyinza bwa Mukama Katonda wo era Omutukuvu wa Isirayiri kubanga akugulumizza.”
6 Seeke ye the Lord while he may be found: call ye vpon him while he is neere.
Munoonye Mukama nga bw’akyayinzika okulabika, mumukaabirire nga bw’akyali okumpi.
7 Let the wicked forsake his wayes, and the vnrighteous his owne imaginations, and returne vnto the Lord, and he wil haue mercy vpon him: and to our God, for hee is very ready to forgiue.
Omubi aleke ekkubo lye, n’atali mutuukirivu aleke ebirowoozo bye. Leka adde eri Mukama naye anaamusaasira, adde eri Katonda waffe kubanga anaamusonyiyira ddala.
8 For my thoughtes are not your thoughts, neither are your wayes my wayes, sayth the Lord.
“Kubanga ebirowoozo byange si birowoozo byammwe era n’amakubo gammwe si ge makubo gange,” bw’ayogera Mukama.
9 For as ye heauens are higher then the earth, so are my wayes higher then your wayes, and my thoughtes aboue your thoughts.
“Ng’eggulu bwe liri waggulu okukira n’ensi, bwe gatyo amakubo gange bwe gali ewala ennyo n’amakubo gammwe, n’ebirowoozo byange bwe biri eri ebirowoozo byammwe.
10 Surely as the raine commeth downe and the snow from heauen, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth and maketh it to bring forth and bud, that it may giue seede to the sower, and bread vnto him that eateth,
Era ng’enkuba bwetonnya n’omuzira ne gugwa okuva mu ggulu n’ebitaddayo, wabula ne bifukirira ettaka, ebirime ne bikula, ne bimerusa ensigo z’omusizi, era ne biwa omuli emmere,
11 So shall my worde be, that goeth out of my mouth: it shall not returne vnto me voyde, but it shall accomplish that which I will, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.
bwe kityo ekigambo kyange ekiva mu kamwa kange bwe kiri; tekiriddayo bwereere, naye kirikola ekyo kye njagala era kirituukiriza ekyo kye nakituma.
12 Therefore ye shall go out with ioy, and be led forth with peace: the mountaines and the hilles shall breake foorth before you into ioye, and all the trees of the fielde shall clap their handes.
Kubanga mulifuluma n’essanyu ne mugenda mirembe, ensozi n’obusozi nabyo ne bitandika okuyimba nga bibalabye, n’emiti gyonna ne gitendereza n’essanyu.
13 For thornes there shall grow firre trees: for nettles shall growe the myrrhe tree, and it shalbe to the Lord for a name, and for an euerlasting signe that shall not be taken away.
Mu kifo ky’omweramannyo mulimeramu olusambya, ne mu kifo ky’omutovu mulimeramu omumwanyi. Era kino kiribaawo erinnya lya Mukama limanyibwe era ako ke kaliba akabonero akataliggwaawo ak’emirembe n’emirembe.”
