< Isaiah 6 >

1 In the yeere of the death of King Vzziah, I saw also the Lord sitting vpon an high throne, and lifted vp, and the lower partes thereof filled the Temple.
Awo mu mwaka kabaka Uzziya mwe yafiira, nalaba Mukama ng’atudde ku ntebe empanvu ng’agulumizibbwa, n’ekirenge ky’ekyambalo kye nga kijjula yeekaalu.
2 The Seraphims stoode vpon it: euery one had sixe wings: with twaine he couered his face, and with twaine hee couered his feete, and with twaine he did flie.
Waggulu we yali waali wayimiriddewo basseraafi: buli omu ng’alina ebiwaawaatiro mukaaga, ebibiri nga bye bibikka ku maaso ge, ebibiri nga bye bibikka ku bigere bye, n’ebibiri ng’abibuusa.
3 And one cryed to another, and sayde, Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hostes: the whole world is full of his glory.
Buli omu yali ng’ayogera ne munne n’eddoboozi ery’omwanguka nti, “Mutukuvu, mutukuvu, mutukuvu, Mukama Katonda Ayinzabyonna: ensi yonna ejjudde ekitiibwa kye.”
4 And the lintles of the doore cheekes moued at the voyce of him that cryed, and the house was filled with smoke.
N’emisingi gy’emiryango ne ginyeenyezebwa olw’eddoboozi ly’oyo eyali akoowoola mu ddoboozi ery’omwanguka, yeekaalu n’ejjula omukka.
5 Then I sayd, Wo is me: for I am vndone, because I am a man of polluted lips, and I dwell in the middes of a people of polluted lips: for mine eyes haue seene the King and Lord of hostes.
Ne ndyoka nkaaba nti, “Zinsanze nze! Nfudde mpeddewo! Kubanga ndi muntu ow’emimwa egitali mirongoofu, era mbeera wakati mu bantu ab’emimwa egitali mirongoofu; kubanga amaaso gange galabye Kabaka, Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye!”
6 Then flewe one of the Seraphims vnto me with an hote cole in his hand, which he had taken from the altar with the tongs:
Olwo omu ku basseraafi n’alyoka abuuka n’ajja gye ndi ng’alina eryanda eryaka mu ngalo ze, lye yali aggye ku kyoto ne nnamagalo.
7 And he touched my mouth, and sayd, Loe, this hath touched thy lips, and thine iniquitie shall be taken away, and thy sinne shalbe purged.
Era n’alikomya ku kamwa kange, n’agamba nti, “Laba, lino likoonye ku mimwa gyo, era obutali butuukirivu bwo bukuggyiddwako. Era n’ekibi kyo kikusonyiyiddwa.”
8 Also I heard the voyce of the Lord, saying, Whome shall I send? and who shall goe for vs? Then I sayd, Here am I, send me.
Ne mpulira eddoboozi lya Mukama ng’abuuza nti, “Naatuma ani, era ani anaagenda ku lwaffe?” Ne ndyoka njogera nti, “Nze wendi! Tuma nze!”
9 And he sayd, Goe, and say vnto this people, Ye shall heare in deede, but ye shall not vnderstand: ye shall plainely see, and not perceiue.
Nayogera nti, “Genda obuulire abantu bano nti, “‘Okuwulira munaawuliranga naye temutegeerenga, n’okulaba munaalabanga naye temutegeerenga kye mulabye.’
10 Make the heart of this people fatte, make their eares heauie, and shut their eyes, lest they see with their eyes, and heare with their eares, and vnderstand with their hearts, and conuert, and he heale them.
Okakanyaze omutima gw’abantu bano, oggale amatu gaabwe, n’amaaso gazibe si kulwa nga balaba n’amaaso gaabwe oba okuwulira n’amatu gaabwe oba okutegeera n’emitima gyabwe ne bakyuka bawonyezebwe.”
11 Then sayd I, Lord, howe long? And he answered, Vntill the cities be wasted without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land be vtterly desolate,
Ne ndyoka njogera nti, “Mukama wange birituusa ddi okuba bwe biti?” Nanziramu nti, “Okutuusa ebibuga lwe birizika nga tewali abibeeramu, ne mu mayumba nga temuli muntu, ensi ng’esigalidde awo,
12 And the Lord haue remoued men farre away, and there be a great desolation in the mids of the land.
okutuusa nga Mukama Katonda agobedde wala buli muntu, era ng’ensi esigadde matongo.
13 But yet in it shalbe a tenth, and shall returne, and shalbe eaten vp as an elme or an oke, which haue a substance in them, when they cast their leaues: so the holy seede shall be the substance thereof.
N’ekimu eky’ekkumi ekiriba kisigaddewo, nakyo kirizikirizibwa. Naye ng’omumyuliru n’omuvule bwe gireka ebikolo byagyo bwe gitemebwa, bw’etyo ensigo entukuvu bw’erigwa mu ttaka n’esigala ng’ekikolo mu nsi.”
