Micah 7
1 Woe is me, for I am as the sommer gatherings, and as the grapes of the vintage: there is no cluster to eate: my soule desired the first ripe fruites.
Ddala zinsanze nze. Ndi ng’omuntu akungula ebibala okuva mu bifo eby’enjawulo eby’ennimiro y’emizabbibu; tewali kirimba kya mizabbibu kulyako, wadde emizeeyituuni egisooka okwengera gye njagala ennyo.
2 The good man is perished out of the earth, and there is none righteous among men: they all lye in wayte for blood: euery man hunteth his brother with a net.
Abantu abatya Katonda, baweddewo mu nsi; tewali n’omu mulongoofu asigaddewo. Bonna banoonya okuyiwa omusaayi, buli omu anoonya okutega muganda we ekitimba.
3 To make good for the euil of their hands, the prince asked, and the iudge iudgeth for a reward: therefore the great man he speaketh out the corruption of his soule: so they wrapt it vp.
Emikono gyabwe gyombi mikugu mu kukola ebibi; omufuzi asaba ebirabo, n’omulamuzi alya enguzi, n’ab’amaanyi mu nsi, beekolera kye baagala nga basala enkwe.
4 The best of them is as a brier, and the most righteous of them is sharper then a thorne hedge: the day of thy watchmen and thy visitation commeth: then shalbe their confusion.
Mu abo bonna asingamu obulungi, afaanana ng’omweramannyo; asingamu ku mazima y’asinga olukomera lw’amaggwa obubi. Naye olunaku lw’abakuumi bammwe lutuuse, era kino kye kiseera eky’okutabukatabuka.
5 Trust ye not in a friend, neither put ye confidence in a counseller: keepe the doores of thy mouth from her that lyeth in thy bosome.
Tewesiga muntu n’omu, wadde mukwano gwo, newaakubadde mukazi wo, Weegendereze by’oyogera.
6 For the sonne reuileth the father: ye daughter riseth vp against her mother: the daughter in lawe against her mother in lawe, and a mans enemies are the men of his owne house.
Kubanga omulenzi agaya kitaawe, n’omwana alwanyisa nnyina, muka mwana n’alwanyisa nnyazaala we. Abalabe b’omuntu, bantu be, ab’omu nju ye bennyini.
7 Therefore I will looke vnto the Lord: I will waite for God my Sauiour: my God will heare me.
Naye nze nnindirira Mukama nga nnina essuubi, nnindirira Katonda Omulokozi wange; Katonda wange anampulira.
8 Reioyce not against me, O mine enemie: though I fall, I shall arise: when I shall sit in darkenesse, the Lord shalbe a light vnto me.
Tonjeeyereza ggwe omulabe wange, kubanga wadde ngudde, nnaayimuka. Ne bwe naatuula mu kizikiza, Mukama anaabeera ekitangaala kyange.
9 I will beare the wrath of the Lord because I haue sinned against him, vntill he pleade my cause, and execute iudgement for me: then will he bring me foorth to the light, and I shall see his righteousnesse.
Nnaagumikirizanga Mukama bw’anaabanga ambonereza, kubanga nnyonoonye mu maaso ge, okutuusa lw’alimpolereza, n’anziza buggya. Alindeeta mu kitangaala, era ndiraba obutuukirivu bwe.
10 Then she that is mine enemie, shall looke vpon it, and shame shall couer her, which said vnto me, Where is the Lord thy God? Mine eyes shall behold her: now shall she be troden downe as the myre of the streetes.
Olwo omulabe wange alikiraba, n’aswala, oyo eyanjeeyerezanga ng’agamba nti, “Ali ludda wa Mukama Katonda wo?” Ndisanyuka ng’agudde, era alirinnyirirwa ng’ebitoomi eby’omu nguudo.
11 This is ye day, that thy walles shalbe built: this day shall driue farre away the decree.
Olunaku olw’okuzimba bbugwe wo lulituuka, olunaku olw’okugaziya ensalo yo.
12 In this day also they shall come vnto thee from Asshur, and from the strong cities, and from the strong holdes euen vnto the riuer, and from Sea to Sea, and from mountaine to mountaine.
Mu biro ebyo abantu balijja gy’oli nga bava mu Bwasuli ne mu bibuga by’e Misiri, n’okuva e Misiri okutuuka ku mugga Fulaati, n’okuva ku nnyanja emu okutuuka ku nnyanja endala, n’okuva ku lusozi olumu okutuuka ku lusozi olulala.
13 Notwithstanding, the lande shall be desolate because of them that dwell therein, and for the fruites of their inuentions.
Ensi erifuuka matongo, olw’ebikolwa by’abantu abagibeeramu.
14 Feed thy people with thy rod, the flocke of thine heritage (which dwell solitarie in the wood) as in the middes of Carmel: let them feede in Bashan and Gilead, as in olde time.
Lunda abantu bo n’omuggo gwo, ekisibo kye weeroboza, ababeera bokka mu kibira mu malundiro amagimu. Baleke baliire mu Basani ne Gireyaadi, nga mu biseera eby’edda.
15 According to the dayes of thy comming out of the lande of Egypt, will I shewe vnto him marueilous things.
Nga bwe kyali mu nnaku ze mwaviiramu mu Misiri, nzija kubalaga ebikulu eby’ekitalo.
16 The nations shall see, and be confounded for all their power: they shall lay their hande vpon their mouth: their eares shall be deafe.
Amawanga galikiraba ne gakwatibwa ensonyi, ne gamalibwamu amaanyi. Abantu baago balikwata ku mimwa gyabwe n’amatu gaabwe ne gaziba.
17 They shall licke the dust like a serpent: they shall mooue out of their holes like wormes: they shalbe afraide of the Lord our God, and shall feare because of thee.
Balirya enfuufu ng’omusota, ng’ebisolo ebyewalula. Balifuluma obunnya bwabwe nga bakankana ne bakyuka okudda eri Mukama Katonda waffe, ne babatya.
18 Who is a God like vnto thee, that taketh away iniquitie, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage! He reteineth not his wrath for euer, because mercie pleaseth him.
Katonda ki omulala ali nga ggwe, asonyiwa ekibi era n’asonyiwa ebyonoono byabo abaasigalawo ku bantu be? Obusungu bwe tebubeerera emirembe gyonna, naye asanyukira okusaasira.
19 He will turne againe, and haue compassion vpon vs: he will subdue our iniquities, and cast all their sinnes into the bottome of the sea.
Alikyuka n’atukwatirwa ekisa nate; alirinnyirira ebibi byaffe, n’asuula ebyonoono byaffe byonna mu buziba bw’ennyanja.
20 Thou wilt perfourme thy trueth to Iaakob, and mercie to Abraham, as thou hast sworne vnto our fathers in olde time.
Olikola eby’amazima bye wasuubiza Yakobo, n’ebyekisa bye wasuubiza Ibulayimu, nga bwe weeyama eri bajjajjaffe okuva mu nnaku ez’edda.
