Micah 1
1 The word of the Lord, that came vnto Micah the Morashite in the dayes of Iotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah Kings of Iudah, which he sawe concerning Samaria, and Ierusalem.
Mu mirembe Yuda gye yagenda efugibwa bakabaka bano: Yosamu, ne Akazi, ne Keezeekiya, Mikka eyali Omumolasuuti, yafuna obubaka obuva eri Mukama, obukwata ku kibuga Samaliya ne Yerusaalemi.
2 Heare, al ye people: hearke thou, O earth, and all that therein is, and let the Lord God be witnes against you, euen ye Lord from his holy Teple.
Muwulire mmwe abantu mwenna, muwulire mmwe ebintu byonna ebiri mu nsi, ne bonna abagirimu, Mukama Ayinzabyonna asinziira mu yeekaalu ye entukuvu, ng’alina by’abalumiriza.
3 For beholde, the Lord commeth out of his place, and will come downe, and tread vpon the hie places of the earth.
Mulabe, Mukama ajja ng’ava mu ggulu ku ntebe ye ng’akka ku nsi ng’atambulira ku nsozi waggulu.
4 And the mountaines shall melt vnder him (so shall the valleys cleaue) as waxe before the fire, and as the waters that are powred downewarde.
N’ensozi zirisaanuukira wansi w’ebigere bye era n’ebiwonvu ne byatika ne bisaanuuka ng’ebisenge by’emizindu by’enjuki ebyokeddwa omuliro, ng’amazzi g’ekiyiriro bwe gakulukuta ku lusozi nga gayirira ku bbangabanga.
5 For the wickednes of Iaakob is all this, and for the sinnes of the house of Israel: what is the wickednes of Iaakob? Is not Samaria? and which are the hie places of Iudah? Is not Ierusalem?
Bino byonna biribeerawo olw’okwonoona kwa Yakobo, olw’ebibi by’ennyumba ya Isirayiri. Ekibi kya Yakobo kye kiruwa? Si ye Samaliya? Kifo ki ekigulumivu ekya Yuda? Si Yerusaalemi?
6 Therefore I wil make Samaria as an heape of the fielde, and for the planting of a vineyard, and I will cause the stones thereof to tumble downe into the valley, and I will discouer the foundations thereof.
“Noolwekyo nzija kubetenta Samaliya ngifuule ebifunfugu, kifuuke nga ennimiro ey’okusimbamu emizabbibu. Ndiyiwa amayinja gaakyo mu kiwonvu N’emisingi gyakyo ne ngireka nga gyasamye.
7 And all the grauen images thereof shalbe broken, and all the giftes thereof shalbe burnt with the fire, and all the idoles thereof will I destroy: for she gathered it of the hire of an harlot, and they shall returne to the wages of an harlot.
Bakatonda baakyo bonna be basinza, balisekulwasekulwa; ebintu byonna ebyaweebwayo ng’ebirabo mu yeekaalu biriggya omuliro; ndizikiriza bakatonda baakyo bonna be beekolera. Ng’ebirabo ebyo bwe byafunibwa mu bwenzi, bwe bityo bwe biritwalibwa mu bwenzi ne bikozesebwa.”
8 Therefore I will mourne and howle: I wil goe without clothes, and naked: I will make lamentation like the dragons, and mourning as the ostriches.
Kyendiva nkaaba ne nkuba ebiwoobe, ne ntambula nga sambadde ngatto, era nga ndi bukunya. Ndikaaba ng’ekibe, ne nkuba ebiwoobe ng’abaana b’ekiwuugulu.
9 For her plagues are grieuous: for it is come into Iudah: the enemie is come vnto the gate of my people, vnto Ierusalem.
Ekiwundu kye tekiwonyezeka, ne Yuda ky’alwadde. Kituukidde ddala ku mulyango gw’abantu bange, ne ku Yerusaalemi yennyini.
10 Declare ye it not at Gath, neither weepe ye: for the house of Aphrah roule thy selfe in the dust.
Temukibuulira mu Gaasi, temukaaba maziga n’akatono. Mwevulungulire mu nfuufu mu Besuleyafula.
11 Thou that dwellest at Shaphir, go together naked with shame: she that dwelleth at Zaanan, shall not come forth in ye mourning of Beth-ezel: the enemie shall receiue of you for his standing.
Muyiteewo nga muli bwereere nga muswadde, mmwe ababeera mu Safiri. Ababeera mu Zanani tebalifuluma. Beswezeeri ekuba ebiwoobe, kubanga tokyalinayo buddukiro.
12 For the inhabitant of Maroth wayted for good, but euill came from the Lord vnto the gate of Ierusalem.
Abo ab’omu Malosi bali mu kulumwa okw’amaanyi nga balindirira okubeerwa, kubanga ekibonoobono kivudde eri Mukama, ne kituuka ne ku mulyango gwa Yerusaalemi.
13 O thou inhabitant of Lachish, binde the charet to the beastes of price: she is the beginning of the sinne to the daughter of Zion: for the transgressions of Israel were found in thee.
Mwanguwe okusiba amagaali ku mbalaasi mmwe ababeera mu Lakisi. Mmwe nsibuko y’ekibi mu Bawala ba Sayuuni, kubanga ebibi bya Isirayiri byasangibwa mu mmwe.
14 Therefore shalt thou giue presents to Moresheth Gath: the houses of Achzib shalbe as a lye to the Kings of Israel.
Noolwekyo muligabira Molesesu eky’e Gaasi ebirabo ebimusiibula. Ebibuga by’e Akuzibu birikakasibwa nga bya bulimba eri bakabaka ba Isirayiri.
15 Yet will I bring an heire vnto thee, O inhabitant of Mareshah, he shall come vnto Adullam, the glorie of Israel.
Mmwe abantu b’omu Malesa, ndibasindikira alibawangula n’abafuga. Oyo ekitiibwa kya Isirayiri alijja mu Adulamu.
16 Make thee balde: and shaue thee for thy delicate children: enlarge thy baldenesse as the eagle, for they are gone into captiuity from thee.
Mukungubage, n’emitwe mugimwe olw’abaana bammwe be mwesiimisa; mumwe enviiri zammwe nga mukungubaga, emitwe gyammwe gibe ng’egy’ensega, kubanga abaana bammwe balibaggyibwako ne batwalibwa mu buwaŋŋanguse.
