Jeremiah 25
1 The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the people of Judah in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, that was the first year of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon;
Ekigambo ekikwata ku bantu bonna aba Yuda ne kijjira Yeremiya mu mwaka ogwokuna ogw’obufuzi bwa Yekoyakimu mutabani wa Yosiya kabaka wa Yuda, ogwali omwaka ogusooka ogw’obufuzi bwa kabaka Nebukadduneeza mu bwakabaka bwa Babulooni.
2 The which Jeremiah the prophet spoke unto all the people of Judah, and to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, saying,
Awo Yeremiya nnabbi n’agamba abantu bonna aba Yuda n’abantu bonna abaali mu Yerusaalemi nti,
3 From the thirteenth year of Josiah the son of Amon king of Judah, even unto this day, that is the three and twentieth year, the word of the LORD has come unto me, and I have spoken unto you, rising early and speaking; but all of you have not hearkened.
Okuva mu mwaka ogw’ekkumi n’esatu ogw’obufuzi bwa Yosiya mutabani wa Amoni kabaka wa Yuda, gy’emyaka amakumi abiri mu esatu okutuusa leero, ekigambo kya Mukama kizze gye ndi era njogedde gye muli emirundi mingi, naye temufuddeeyo.
4 And the LORD has sent unto you all his servants the prophets, rising early and sending them; but all of you have not hearkened, nor inclined your ear to hear.
Newaakubadde nga Mukama abaweerezza bannabbi be emirundi mingi, temuwulirizza wadde okufaayo.
5 They said, Turn all of you again now every one from his evil way, and from the evil of your doings, and dwell in the land that the LORD has given unto you and to your fathers for ever and ever:
Babagamba nti, “Mukyuke kaakano, buli omu ku mmwe okuva mu bikolwa bye ebibi, mulyoke musigale mu nsi Mukama gye yabawa mmwe ne bakitammwe emirembe gyonna.
6 And go not after other gods to serve them, and to worship them, and provoke me not to anger with the works of your hands; and I will do you no hurt.
Temugoberera bakatonda balala, temubaweereza wadde okubasinza; temunsunguwaza olw’ekyo emikono gyammwe kye gyakola, nneme okubakolako obulabe.”
7 Yet all of you have not hearkened unto me, says the LORD; that all of you might provoke me to anger with the works of your hands to your own hurt.
“Naye temwampuliriza, mwansunguwaza n’ekyo kye mwakola n’emikono gyammwe, era ne mwereetera akabi,” bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
8 Therefore thus says the LORD of hosts; Because all of you have not heard my words,
Noolwekyo bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye nti, “Kubanga temuwulirizza bigambo byange,
9 Behold, I will send and take all the families of the north, says the LORD, and Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will bring them against this land, and against the inhabitants thereof, and against all these nations round about, and will utterly destroy them, and make them an astonishment, and an hissing, and perpetual desolations.
nzija kukoowoola abantu bonna ab’omu bukiikakkono n’omuddu wange Nebukadduneeza, balumbe ensi eno n’abantu baamu era n’ensi zonna ezibeetoolodde. Nzija kuzizikiririza ddala nzifuule ekintu eky’entiisa era eky’okusekererwa, era zoonoonekere ddala.
10 Moreover I will take from them the voice of delight, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, the sound of the millstones, and the light of the candle.
Ndibagobako eddoboozi ery’essanyu era n’okujaguza, eddoboozi ery’awasa omugole n’ery’omugole, eddoboozi ly’olubengo n’okwaka kw’ettaala.
11 And this whole land shall be a desolation, and an astonishment; and these nations shall serve the king of Babylon seventy years.
Ensi eno yonna ejja kufuuka matongo, n’amawanga gano gajja kuweereza kabaka w’e Babulooni emyaka nsanvu.
12 And it shall come to pass, when seventy years are accomplished, that I will punish the king of Babylon, and that nation, says the LORD, for their iniquity, and the land of the Chaldeans, and will make it perpetual desolations.
“Naye emyaka ensanvu bwe giriggwako, ndibonereza kabaka w’e Babulooni n’eggwanga lye, ensi ya Babulooni olw’ekibi kyabwe, ngifuule matongo emirembe gyonna,” bw’ayogera Mukama.
13 And I will bring upon that land all my words which I have pronounced against it, even all that is written in this book, which Jeremiah has prophesied against all the nations.
“Ndireeta ku nsi eno ebintu byonna bye njogeddeko, ebyo byonna ebiwandiikiddwa ku muzingo guno era ne Yeremiya byategeezezza amawanga gano gonna.
14 For many nations and great kings shall make use of them also: and I will recompense them according to their deeds, and according to the works of their own hands.
Bo bennyini balifuulibwa baddu ba mawanga mangi era baddu ba bakabaka ab’ekitiibwa; ndibasasula ng’ebikolwa byabwe bwe biri n’emirimu gy’emikono gyabwe bwe giri.”
15 For thus says the LORD God of Israel unto me; Take the wine cup of this fury at my hand, and cause all the nations, to whom I send you, to drink it.
Bw’ati Mukama, Katonda wa Isirayiri bwe yaŋŋamba nti, “Twala ekikopo kino, okuva mu mukono gwange, ekijjudde wayini ow’obusungu bwange, okinywese amawanga gonna gye nnaakutuma okukibanywesa.
16 And they shall drink, and be moved, and be mad, because of the sword that I will send among them.
Bwe banaakinywa, bajja kugwa eddalu batagale olw’ekitala kye nnaabasindikamu.”
17 Then took I the cup at the LORD's hand, and made all the nations to drink, unto whom the LORD had sent me:
Awo ne ntwala ekikopo okuva mu Mukono gwa Mukama ne nkitwala eri amawanga gonna gye yantuma okukibanywesa;
18 To know, Jerusalem, and the cities of Judah, and the kings thereof, and the princes thereof, to make them a desolation, an astonishment, an hissing, and a curse; as it is this day;
Yerusaalemi n’ebibuga bya Yuda, ne bakabaka baabyo n’abakungu basaanewo era bafuuke ekintu eky’entiisa n’okuzikirira, n’okusekererwa n’ekikolimo nga bwe bali kaakano.
19 Pharaoh king of Egypt, and his servants, and his princes, and all his people;
Falaawo, ye kabaka w’e Misiri, ne bakalabaalaba be, n’abakungu be n’abantu be bonna,
20 And all the mingled people, and all the kings of the land of Uz, and all the kings of the land of the Philistines, and Ashkelon, and Azzah, and Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod,
n’abagwira bonna abaaliyo; bakabaka ba Uzi bonna, ne bakabaka b’Abafirisuuti bonna, abo ab’e Asukulooni, n’e Gaza, n’e Ekuloni, n’abantu abaalekebwa e Asudodi,
21 Edom, and Moab, and the children of Ammon,
n’e Edomu, n’e Mowaabu n’e Ammoni,
22 And all the kings of Tyrus, and all the kings of Zidon, and the kings of the isles which are beyond the sea,
bakabaka bonna ab’e Tuulo ne Sidoni, bakabaka ab’oku lubalama ng’osomose ennyanja;
23 Dedan, and Tema, and Buz, and all that are in the utmost corners,
Dedani, n’e Teema, n’e Buuzi n’abo bonna abali mu bifo eby’ewala,
24 And all the kings of Arabia, and all the kings of the mingled people that dwell in the desert,
ne bakabaka bonna ab’e Buwalabu, ne bakabaka b’abannamawanga ababeera mu ddungu;
25 And all the kings of Zimri, and all the kings of Elam, and all the kings of the Medes,
ne bakabaka bonna ab’e Zimuli, n’e Eramu n’e Meedi;
26 And all the kings of the north, far and near, one with another, and all the kingdoms of the world, which are upon the face of the earth: and the king of Sheshach shall drink after them.
n’abo bonna bakabaka ab’omu bukiikakkono, abeewala, n’ab’okumpi, omu ku omu, obwakabaka bwonna obuli ku nsi. Oluvannyuma lwabo kabaka w’e Sesaki naye balikinywa.
27 Therefore you shall say unto them, Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Drink all of you, and be drunken, and spew, and fall, and rise no more, because of the sword which I will send among you.
“Era onoobagamba nti, ‘Bw’atyo bw’ayogera Mukama ow’Eggye, Katonda wa Isirayiri nti, Munywe mutamiire, museseme, mugwe muleme kuddayo kusituka olw’ekitala ekyo kye ŋŋenda okusindika mu mmwe.’
28 And it shall be, if they refuse to take the cup at your hand to drink, then shall you say unto them, Thus says the LORD of hosts; All of you shall certainly drink.
Naye bwe bagaana okuggya ekikopo mu mukono gwo okukinywa, bagambe nti, ‘Kino Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye ky’agamba nti, Muteekwa okukinywa!
29 For, lo, I begin to bring evil on the city which is called by my name, and should all of you be utterly unpunished? All of you shall not be unpunished: for I will call for a sword upon all the inhabitants of the earth, says the LORD of hosts.
Laba, ntandika okuzikiriza ekibuga ekiyitibwa Erinnya lyange, ddala munaagenda nga temubonerezeddwa? Mujja kubonerezebwa kubanga nkoowoola ekitala kikke ku abo bonna abali ku nsi, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye.’
30 Therefore prophesy you against them all these words, and say unto them, The LORD shall roar from on high, and utter his voice from his holy habitation; he shall mightily roar upon his habitation; he shall give a shout, as they that tread the grapes, against all the inhabitants of the earth.
“Kaakano bategeeze ebigambo bino byonna obagambe nti, “‘Mukama Katonda anaayogerera waggulu, era anaayimusa eddoboozi lye okuva mu kifo kye ekitukuvu awulugume n’amaanyi mangi nnyo ng’awakanya bonna abali mu nsi. Ajja kuleekaana ng’abasogozi abasamba emizabbibu, ng’aleekaanira abo abali ku nsi.
31 A noise shall come even to the ends of the earth; for the LORD has a controversy with the nations, he will plead with all flesh; he will give them that are wicked to the sword, says the LORD.
Eddoboozi lye liriwulirwa n’ensi gy’ekoma. Kubanga Mukama alisalira amawanga emisango gy’abavunaana, alisalira abantu bonna omusango, atte ababi n’ekitala,’” bw’ayogera Mukama.
32 Thus says the LORD of hosts, Behold, evil shall go forth from nation to nation, and a great whirlwind shall be raised up from the coasts of the earth.
Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye nti, “Laba okuzikirira kugenda kusaasaana kuva nsi ku nsi; enkuba ey’amaanyi ejja kuva ku nkomerero y’ensi.”
33 And the slain of the LORD shall be at that day from one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth: they shall not be lamented, neither gathered, nor buried; they shall be dung upon the ground.
Mu kiseera ekyo abo abattiddwa Mukama bajja kubeera buli wamu okuva ku nsonda emu ey’ensi okutuuka ku ndala. Tebajja kukungubagirwa wadde okukuŋŋaanyizibwa oba okuziikibwa, naye banaaba ng’obusa obulekeddwa ku ttaka.
34 Wail, all of you shepherds, and cry; and wallow yourselves in the ashes, all of you principal of the flock: for the days of your slaughter and of your dispersions are accomplished; and all of you shall fall like a pleasant vessel.
Mukaabe mulaajane mmwe abasumba, mwevulunge mu ttaka, mmwe abakulu b’ebisibo. Kubanga obudde bwammwe obw’okuttibwa butuuse mujja kugwa mubetentebwe ng’ebibya eby’ebbumba.
35 And the shepherds shall have no way to flee, nor the principal of the flock to escape.
Abasumba tebaabeeko na buddukiro, n’abakulu b’ebisibo tebaabeeko na wa kwekweka.
36 A voice of the cry of the shepherds, and an howling of the principal of the flock, shall be heard: for the LORD has spoiled their pasture.
Muwulire okukaaba kw’abasumba, okwaziirana kw’abanannyini b’ebisibo, kubanga Mukama alizikiriza amalundiro gaabwe.
37 And the peaceable habitations are cut down because of the fierce anger of the LORD.
Amalundiro amalungi galifuuka matongo olw’obusungu bwa Mukama obubuubuuka.
38 He has forsaken his covert, as the lion: for their land is desolate because of the fierceness of the oppressor, and because of his fierce anger.
Ajja kuleka ekisulo kye ng’empologoma bw’eva w’esula, n’ensi yaabwe ejja kusigala njereere olw’ekitala ky’omulumbaganyi era n’olw’obusungu bwa Mukama obw’entiisa.
