Michaeas 1
1 And the word of the Lord came to Michaeas the son of Morasthi, in the days of Joatham, and Achaz, and Ezekias, kings of Juda, concerning what he saw regarding Samaria and Jerusalem.
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 Hear [these] words, you people; and let the earth give heed, and all that are in it: and the Lord God shall be among you for a testimony, the Lord out of his holy habitation.
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, behold, the Lord comes forth out of his place, and will come down, and will go upon the high 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 mountains shall be shaken under him, and the valleys shall melt like wax before the fire, and as water rushing down a declivity.
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 All these [calamities are] for the transgression of Jacob, and for the sin of the house of Israel. What is the transgression of Jacob? [is it] not Samaria? and what is the sin of the house of Juda? [is it] not Jerusalem?
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 will make Samaria [as] a store-house of the fruits of the field, and [as] a planting of a vineyard: and I will utterly demolish her stones, and I will expose her foundations.
“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 they shall cut in pieces all the graven images, and all that she has hired they shall burn with fire, and I will utterly destroy all her idols: because she has gathered of the hires of fornication, and of the hires of fornication has she amassed [wealth].
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 shall she lament and wail, she shall go barefooted, and [being] naked she shall make lamentation as [that] of serpents, and mourning as of the daughters of sirens.
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 plague has become grievous; for it has come even to Juda; and has reached to the gate of my people, even to Jerusalem.
Ekiwundu kye tekiwonyezeka, ne Yuda ky’alwadde. Kituukidde ddala ku mulyango gw’abantu bange, ne ku Yerusaalemi yennyini.
10 You that are in Geth, exalt not yourselves, and you Enakim, do not rebuild from [the ruins of] the house in derision: sprinkle dust [in the place of] your laughter.
Temukibuulira mu Gaasi, temukaaba maziga n’akatono. Mwevulungulire mu nfuufu mu Besuleyafula.
11 The inhabitant of Sennaar, fairly inhabiting her cities, came not forth to mourn for the house next to her: she shall receive of you the stroke of grief.
Muyiteewo nga muli bwereere nga muswadde, mmwe ababeera mu Safiri. Ababeera mu Zanani tebalifuluma. Beswezeeri ekuba ebiwoobe, kubanga tokyalinayo buddukiro.
12 Who has begun [to act] for good to her that dwells in sorrow? for calamities have come down from the Lord upon the gates of Jerusalem,
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 [even] a sound of chariots and horsemen: the inhabitants of Lachis, she is the leader of sin to the daughter of Sion: for in you were found the transgressions of Israel.
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 shall he cause men to be sent forth as far as the inheritance of Geth, [even] vain houses; they are become vanity 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 until they bring the heirs, O inhabitant of Lachis: the inheritance shall reach to Odollam, [even] the glory of the daughter of Israel.
Mmwe abantu b’omu Malesa, ndibasindikira alibawangula n’abafuga. Oyo ekitiibwa kya Isirayiri alijja mu Adulamu.
16 Shave your hair, and make yourself bald for your delicate children; increase your widowhood as an eagle; for [your people] are gone into captivity from you.
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.
