Joel 3
1 For beholde, in those dayes and in that time, when I shall bring againe the captiuitie of Iudah and Ierusalem,
“Mu nnaku ezo, era mu biseera ebyo, Yuda n’ekibuga Yerusaalemi ndibiddiza emikisa gyabyo nga bwe gyabanga edda.
2 I will also gather all nations, and wil bring them downe into the valley of Iehoshaphat, and will pleade with them there for my people, and for mine heritage Israel, whom they haue scattered among the nations, and parted my land.
Ndikuŋŋaanya abamawanga bonna ne mbaserengesa mu kiwonvu Yekosafaati, ne mbasalira omusango olwa byonna bye baakola abantu bange Abayisirayiri ab’obusika bwange. Kubanga baasaasaanya Abayisirayiri mu mawanga, ne bagabana ensi yange.
3 And they haue cast lottes for my people, and haue giuen the childe for the harlot, and sold the girle for wine, that they might drinke.
Baagabana abantu bange nga babakubirako obululu; ne batunda abalenzi olw’abakazi bamalaaya, n’abawala ne babatundamu omwenge ne beenywera.
4 Yea, and what haue you to do with me, O Tyrus and Zidon and all the costes of Palestina? will ye render me a recompence? and if ye recompence mee, swiftly and speedily will I render your recompence vpon your head:
“Mwe Ttuulo ne Sidoni n’enjuyi zonna ez’Abafirisuuti, mmwe b’ani ku Nze? Nnina kye nabakola kye mugezaako okwesasuza? Bwe munaaba nga mugezaako kwesasuza, ebikolwa byammwe nzija kubibakyusizaako mangwago.
5 For ye haue taken my siluer and my golde, and haue caried into your temples my goodly and pleasant things.
Kubanga mwatwala effeeza yange ne zaabu yange n’ebintu byange eby’omuwendo omungi ne mubissa mu masabo gammwe.
6 The children also of Iudah and the children of Ierusalem haue you solde vnto the Grecians, that ye might send them farre from their border.
Mwatwala abantu b’omu Yuda ne mu Yerusaalemi ne mubatunza Abayonaani.
7 Beholde, I will rayse them out of the place where ye haue sold them, and will render your reward vpon your owne head,
“Laba, ndibaggyayo mu mawanga gye mwabatunda; mmwe mbakole nga bwe mwabakola.
8 And I will send your sonnes and your daughters into the hande of the children of Iudah, and they shall sell them to the Sabeans, to a people farre off: for the Lord hath spoken it.
Batabani bammwe ne bawala bammwe ndibaguza batabani ba Yuda, nabo balibaguza abantu ab’omu ggwanga ery’ewala ennyo, ery’e Seba.” Ebyo Mukama y’abyogedde.
9 Publish this among the Gentiles: prepare warre, wake vp the mightie men: let all the men of warre drawe neere and come vp.
Bakabona mulangirire mu mawanga bwe muti nti, Mwetegekere olutalo! Muyite abalwanyi bammwe ab’amaanyi, buli mulwanyi yenna asembere ajje mu lutalo.
10 Breake your plowshares into swords, and your sithes into speares: let the weake say, I am strong.
Enkumbi zammwe muziweeseemu ebitala, n’obwambe bwammwe mubuweeseemu amafumu; omunafu agambe nti, “Ndi wa maanyi.”
11 Assemble your selues, and come all yee heathen and gather your selues together round about: there shall the Lord cast downe the mightie men.
Mujje mangu mwe mwenna abamawanga agatwetoolodde, mukuŋŋaanire mu kiwonvu. Ayi Mukama, weereza eggye lyo libalumbe.
12 Let the heathen be wakened, and come vp to the valley of Iehoshaphat: for there will I sit to iudge all the heathen round about.
“Amawanga geeteeketeeke gajje mu kiwonvu ekya Yekosafaati; kubanga eyo gye ndisinzira ne nsalira amawanga gonna ageetoolodde wano omusango.
13 Put in your sithes, for the haruest is ripe: come, get you downe, for the winepresse is full: yea, the winepresses runne ouer, for their wickednesse is great.
Kozesa oluwabyo lwo, kubanga ekiseera eky’amakungula kituuse. Mujje mubabetente nga bwe mulinnyirira emizabbibu mu ssogolero okutuusa envinnyo lw’ekulukuta, ekibi kyabwe kinene nnyo.”
14 O multitude, O multitude, come into the valley of threshing: for the day of the Lord is neere in the valley of threshing.
Abantu bukadde na bukadde abali mu kiwonvu eky’okusalirwamu omusango! Kubanga olunaku lwa Mukama lusembedde lwaliramulirako mu kiwonvu eky’okusalirwamu omusango.
15 The sunne and moone shalbe darkened, and the starres shall withdrawe their light.
Ekizikiza kibuutikidde enjuba n’omwezi, n’emmunyeenye tezikyayaka.
16 The Lord also shall roare out of Zion, and vtter his voyce from Ierusalem, and the heauens and the earth shall shake, but the Lord wil be the hope of his people, and the strength of the children of Israel.
Mukama aliwuluguma ng’ayima ku Sayuuni; alibwatuka n’eddoboozi lye ng’asinziira mu Yerusaalemi. Eggulu n’ensi birikankana. Naye Mukama aliba ekiddukiro ky’abantu be, era ekigo ky’abaana ba Isirayiri eky’amaanyi.
17 So shall ye know that I am the Lord your God dwelling in Zion, mine holy Mountaine: then shall Ierusalem bee holy, and there shall no strangers go thorowe her any more.
“Kale mulimanya nga Nze Mukama Katonda wammwe, abeera ku lusozi lwange olutukuvu Sayuuni. Era Yerusaalemi kinaabeeranga kitukuvu, nga ne bannamawanga tebakyakirumba.
18 And in that day shall the mountaines drop downe newe wine, and the hilles shall flowe with milke, and al the riuers of Iudah shall runne with waters, and a fountaine shall come forth of the House of the Lord, and shall water the valley of Shittim.
“Olunaku luli bwe lulituuka, ensozi ziritonnyesa wayini omuggya, n’obusozi bulikulukusa amata, n’emigga gyonna egya Yuda emikalu girikulukusa amazzi. Ensulo eriva mu nnyumba ya Mukama n’efukirira ekiwonvu kya Sittimu.
19 Egypt shalbe waste, and Edom shall be a desolate wildernesse, for the iniuries of the childre of Iudah, because they haue shed innocent blood in their land.
Misiri erifuuka amatongo n’ensi ya Edomu erifuuka ddungu jjereere olw’ebikolobero bye baakola ku bantu ba Yuda, ensi mwe battira abantu abatalina musango.
20 But Iudah shall dwell for euer, and Ierusalem from generation to generation.
Naye mu Yuda mulibeeramu abantu ennaku zonna, ne Yerusaalemi kiribeerawo emirembe gyonna.
21 For I will clense their blood, that I haue not clensed, and the Lord will dwell in Zion.
Ndyesasuza olw’omusaayi ogw’abo abattibwa, era teriba mutemu asonyiyibwa.
