Jeremias 7
Kino kye kigambo ekyajjira Yeremiya okuva eri Mukama.
2 Hear you the word of the Lord, all Judea.
Yimirira ku mulyango gw’ennyumba ya Mukama otegeeze abantu obubaka buno. Muwuliriza ekigambo kya Mukama, mmwe mwenna abantu ba Yuda abayita mu miryango gino okusinza Mukama.
3 Thus says the Lord God of Israel, Correct your ways and your devices, and I will cause you to dwell in this place.
Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama ow’Eggye, Katonda wa Isirayiri nti, “Mulongoose amakubo gammwe n’ebikolwa byammwe, nange ndibalekera ekifo kino ne mubeeramu.
4 Trust not in yourselves with lying words, for they shall not profit you at all, saying, It is the temple of the Lord, the temple of the Lord.
Teweesiga bigambo bino ebibuzaabuza ne mwogera nti, ‘Eno ye yeekaalu ya Mukama, yeekaalu ya Mukama, yeekaalu ya Mukama!’
5 For if you thoroughly correct your ways and your practices, and do indeed execute judgment between a man and his neighbor;
Kubanga bwe munaalongoosezanga ddala amakubo gammwe n’ebikolwa byammwe; era bwe munaalaganga obwenkanya eri omuntu ne munne,
6 and oppress not the stranger, and the orphan, and the widow, and shed not innocent blood in this place, and go not after strange gods to your hurt:
ne mulekayo okunyigiriza omugwira, ne mulekwa, ne nnamwandu, ne mulekayo n’okutta abataliiko musango mu kifo ekyo, era ne mutasinza bakatonda abalala okwereetera emisango mmwe bennyini,
7 then will I cause you to dwell in this place, in the land which I gave to your fathers of old and for ever.
kale ndibatuuza mu kifo ekyo mu nsi gye nawa bajjajjammwe ebeere yammwe emirembe n’emirembe.
8 But whereas you have trusted in lying words, whereby you shall not be profited;
Kale laba, mwesiga ebigambo ebitaliimu, ebitagasa.
9 and you murder, and commit adultery, and steal, and swear falsely, and burn incense to Baal, and are gone after strange gods whom you know not,
“Munabba ne mutta, ne mukola obwenzi ne mulayira eby’obulimba, ne mwoteza obubaane eri Baali, ne mutambula okugoberera bakatonda abalala be mutamanyanga;
10 so that it is evil with you; yet have you come, and stood before me in the house, whereon my name is called, and you have said, We have refrained from doing all these abominations.
ne mulyoka mujja ne muyimirira mu maaso gange mu nnyumba eno, eyitibwa Erinnya lyange, ne mugamba nti, ‘Tuli bulungi, tuli bulungi,’ ne mulyoka mukola eby’emizizo byonna?
11 Is my house, whereon my name is called, a den of robbers in your eyes? And, behold, I have seen [it], says the Lord.
Mulowooza nti ennyumba eno eyitibwa ennyumba yange, mpuku y’abanyazi? Laba, nze kennyini nkirabye,” bw’ayogera Mukama.
12 For go you to my place with is in Selo, where I caused my name to dwell before, and see what I did to it because of the wickedness of my people Israel.
“Mugende kaakano mu kifo kyange ekyali e Siiro ekifo gye nasooka okuteeka essinzizo ly’erinnya lyange, mulabe kye nakikola olw’ekibi ky’abantu bange Isirayiri.
13 And now, because you have done all these deeds, and I spoke to you, but you listened not to me; and I called you, but you answered not;
Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti, Bwe mwali mukola ebintu bino byonna, nayogera nammwe emirundi mingi naye ne mutampulira; nabakoowoola ne mutampitaba.
14 therefore I also will do to the house whereon my name is called, wherein you trust, and to the place which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I did to Selo.
Noolwekyo, ekyo kye nakola e Siiro nzija kukikola kaakano ku nnyumba eyitibwa Erinnya lyange, era gye mwesiga, era n’ebifo bye nabawa mmwe ne bakitammwe.
15 And I will cast you out of my sight, as I cast away your brethren, all the seed of Ephraim.
Ndibagoba ne mu maaso gange, nga bwe nagoba baganda bammwe bonna, ezzadde lya Efulayimu lyonna.
16 Therefore pray not you for this people, and intercede not for them to be pitied, yes, pray not, and approach me not for them: for I will not listen [to you].
“Noolwekyo tosabira bantu abo wadde okubegayiririra newaakubadde okubasabira oba okubawolereza, kubanga siikuwulire.
17 Seest you not what they do in the cities of Juda, and in the streets of Jerusalem?
Tolaba bye bakola mu bibuga bya Yuda era ne mu nguudo za Yerusaalemi?
18 Their children gather wood, and their fathers kindle a fire, and their women knead dough, to make cakes to the host of heaven; and they have poured out drink-offerings to strange gods, that they might provoke me to anger.
Abaana balonda enku, bakitaabwe ne bakuma omuliro, olwo abakazi ne bakanda eŋŋaano ne bakolera kabaka w’eggulu omukazi emigaati. Bafuka ekiweebwayo ekyokunywa eri bakatonda abalala okunkwasa obusungu.
19 Do they provoke me to anger? says the Lord: do they not [provoke] themselves, that their faces may be ashamed?
Naye nze gwe balumya?” bw’ayogera Mukama. “Tebeerumya bokka, ne beeswazaswaza?”
20 Therefore thus says the Lord; Behold, my anger and wrath shall be poured out upon this place, and upon the men, and upon the cattle, and upon every tree of their field, and upon the fruits of the land; and it shall burn, and not be quenched.
Noolwekyo bw’atyo bw’ayogera Mukama nti, “Laba obusungu bwange n’ekiruyi kyange bijja kufukibwa ku kifo kino, ku bantu ne ku nsolo, ku miti egy’omu ttale era ne ku bibala eby’omu ttaka; bujja kubuubuuka era tebujja kukoma.”
21 Thus says the Lord, Gather your whole burnt offerings with your meat-offerings, and eat flesh.
“Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama ow’Eggye, Katonda wa Isirayiri nti, Mugatte ebiweebwayo byammwe ebyokebwa ku ssaddaaka zammwe, ennyama mugyeriire.
22 For I spoke not to your fathers, and commanded them not in the day wherein I brought them up out of the land of Egypt, concerning whole burnt offerings and sacrifice:
Kubanga ku lunaku lwe nabaggya mu Misiri saayogera eri bakitammwe wadde okubalagira ebikwata ku biweebwayo ebyokebwa wadde ssaddaaka.
23 but I commanded them this thing, saying, Hear you my voice, and I will be to you a God, and you shall be to me a people: and walk you in all my ways which I shall command you, that it may be well with you.
Naye etteeka lino lye nabawa ligamba nti, ‘Muŋŋondere, nange nnaabeera Katonda wammwe, nammwe munaabeera bantu bange. Mutambulire mu makubo gonna ge mbalagira, mulyoke mubeere bulungi.’
24 But they listened not to me, and their ear gave no heed, but they walked in the imaginations of their evil heart, and went backward, and not forward;
Naye tebampulira wadde okunzisaako omwoyo, wabula bagoberera okuteesa kw’emitima gyabwe egijjudde ebibi. Badda emabega so tebaalaga mu maaso.
25 from the day that their fathers went forth out of the land of Egypt, even until this day. And I sent to you all my servants, the prophets, by day and early in the morning: yes, I sent [them],
Okuva mu biseera bajjajjammwe bye baaviiramu e Misiri okutuusa kaakano, mbadde mpeereza abaddu bange bannabbi emirundi n’emirundi.
26 but they listened not to me, and their ear gave no heed; and they made their neck harder than their fathers.
Naye tebampuliriza wadde okunzisaako omwoyo, bakakanyaza ensingo zaabwe era ne bakola ebibi ne basinga ne bajjajjaabwe.
27 Therefore you shall speak this word to them;
“Kale ojja kubagamba bino byonna naye tebajja kukuwuliriza, bw’onoobayita tebajja kukwanukula.
28 This is the nation which has not listened to the voice of the Lord, nor received correction: truth has failed from their mouth.
Noolwekyo bagambe nti, ‘Lino ly’eggwanga eritagondera Mukama Katonda waalyo oba okufaayo ku kugololwa. Amazima gabulawo, tegali ku mimwa gyabwe.
29 Cut off your hair, and cast it away, and take up a lamentation on your lips; for the Lord has reprobated and rejected the generation that does these things.
Salako enviiri zo ggwe Yerusaalemi, ozisuule wala ddala okaabire ku ntikko z’ensozi, kubanga Mukama alese abantu be era n’asuula ab’omu mulembe guno mw’asunguwalidde ennyo.’”
30 For the children of Juda have wrought evil before me, says the Lord; they have set their abominations in the house on which my name is called, to defile it.
“Abantu ba Yuda bakoze ekintu eky’ekivve mu maaso gange, bw’ayogera Mukama. Batadde bakatonda abalala mu nnyumba yange eyitibwa erinnya lyange ne bagyonoona.
31 And they have built the altar of Taphes, which is in the valley of the son of Ennom, to burn their sons and their daughters with fire; which I did not command them [to do], neither did I design it in my heart.
Bazimbye ebifo ebigulumivu ebya Tofesi mu kiwonvu kya mutabani wa Kinomu ne bassaddaakiramu batabani baabwe be bazaala n’abawala, kye saalowoozaako wadde okukibalagira.
32 Therefore, behold, the days come, says the Lord, when they shall no more say, The altar of Taphes, and the valley of the son of Ennom, but, The valley of the slain; and they shall bury in Taphes, for lack of room.
Laba, ennaku zijja,” bw’atyo bw’ayogera Mukama, bwe kitariyitibwa Kiwonvu kya Tofesi oba ekya Kinnomu ne kiyitibwa Kiwonvu kya ttambiro: kubanga baliziikamu Tofesi okutuusa we wataliba bbanga lya kuziikamu.
33 And the dead bodies of this people shall be for food to the birds of the sky, and to the wild beasts of the earth; and there shall be none to drive [them] away.
Era emirambo gy’abantu bano gifuuke emmere y’ebinyonyi eby’omu bbanga era n’ensolo ez’omu nsiko, era waleme kubaawo muntu wakuzigoba;
34 And I will destroy out of the cities of Juda, and the streets of Jerusalem, the voice of them that make merry, and the voice of them that rejoice, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride; for the whole land shall become a desolation.
olwo nga nkomezza amaloboozi ag’okusanyuka n’okujaguza, n’eddoboozi ly’omusajja awasa n’ery’omugole we mu bibuga bya Yuda ne mu nguudo za Yerusaalemi, olwo ensi ng’efuuse matongo.
