< Ezekiel 2 >

1 AND he said unto me, Son of man, stand upon thy feet, and I will speak unto thee.
N’aŋŋamba nti, “Omwana w’omuntu, yimirira njogere naawe.”
2 And the spirit entered into me when he spake unto me, and set me upon my feet, that I heard him that spake unto me.
Awo bwe yali ng’akyayogera nange, Omwoyo nanzikako n’annyimusa, ne mpulira ng’ayogera nange.
3 And he said unto me, Son of man, I send thee to the children of Israel, to a rebellious nation that hath rebelled against me: they and their fathers have transgressed against me, even unto this very day.
N’ayogera nti, “Omwana w’omuntu, nkutuma eri Abayisirayiri, eri eggwanga ejeemu eryanjeemera, era bo ne bajjajjaabwe banjeemera okuva edda n’okutuusa olunaku lwa leero.
4 For they are impudent children and stiffhearted. I do send thee unto them; and thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God.
Abantu be nkutumamu bakakanyavu era bakozi ba bibi. Bategeeze nti, ‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti,’
5 And they, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear, (for they are a rebellious house, ) yet shall know that there hath been a prophet among them.
Oba banaawuliriza oba tebaawulirize, kubanga nnyumba njeemu, balimanya nga mu bo musituseemu nnabbi.
6 And thou, son of man, be not afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns be with thee, and thou dost dwell among scorpions: be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they be a rebellious house.
Kaakano ggwe omwana w’omuntu, tobatya newaakubadde ebigambo bye banaayogera, newaakubadde emyeramannyo n’amaggwa nga bikwetoolodde, era ng’obeera wakati mu njaba ez’obusagwa. Totya bigambo bye banaayogera newaakubadde okutekemuka kubanga nnyumba njeemu.
7 And thou shalt speak my words unto them, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear: for they are most rebellious.
Oteekwa okubategeeza ebigambo byange, oba banaawuliriza oba tebaawulirize, kubanga bajeemu.
8 But thou, son of man, hear what I say unto thee; Be not thou rebellious like that rebellious house: open thy mouth, and eat that I give thee.
Naye ggwe omwana w’omuntu wuliriza kye nkugamba. Tojeema ng’ennyumba eyo bwe yanjeemera. Yasamya akamwa ko olye bye nkuwa.”
9 And when I looked, behold, an hand was sent unto me; and, lo, a roll of a book was therein;
Awo ne ntunula, ne ndaba omukono nga gugoloddwa gye ndi, mu gwo nga mulimu omuzingo gw’ekitabo.
10 And he spread it before me; and it was written within and without: and there was written therein lamentations, and mourning, and woe.
N’agwanjuluriza mu maaso gange, munda nga muwandiikibbwamu ne kungulu nga kuwandiikibbwako ebigambo eby’okukungubaga n’okukuba ebiwoobe, n’okukaaba.
