Ezekiel 36
1 “And you, son of man, prophesy to mountains of Israel, and you have said, O mountains of Israel, hear a word of YHWH!
“Omwana w’omuntu, yogera obunnabbi eri ensozi za Isirayiri, ogambe nti, Mmwe ensozi za Isirayiri, muwulire ekigambo kya Mukama.
2 Thus said Lord YHWH: Because the enemy said against you, Aha! The high places of old have also become our possession,
Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti, omulabe yayogera nti, ‘Otyo, ensozi ez’edda kaakano zaffe.’
3 therefore, prophesy, and you have said, Thus said Lord YHWH: Because, even because, of desolating, And of swallowing you up from all around, For your being a possession to the remnant of the nations, And you are taken up on the tip of the tongue, And [are] an evil report to the people.
Kyemwava muwa obunnabbi ne mwogera nti, ‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti, Kubanga baabacocca ne babayigganya enjuuyi zonna amawanga amalala ne gabeetwalira, era ne mufuuka eky’okwogerwako era ne baboogerako eby’obulimba,
4 Therefore, O mountains of Israel, Hear a word of Lord YHWH! Thus said Lord YHWH, to mountains, and to hills, To streams, and to valleys, And to ruins that [are] desolate, And to cities that are forsaken, That have been for a prey, And for a scorn, to the remnant of the surrounding nations,
kyemunaava muwulira ekigambo kya Mukama Katonda mmwe ensozi za Isirayiri: Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti eri ensozi n’obusozi, n’eri enzizi n’ebiwonvu, n’eri ebifulukwa n’ebibuga ebyafuuka amatongo ebyanyagibwa ne bifuuka eby’okusekererwa eri amawanga gonna okwetooloola
5 Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: Have I not, in the fire of My jealousy, Spoken against the remnant of the nations, And against Edom—all of it, Who gave My land to themselves for a possession, With the joy of the whole heart—with despite of soul, For the sake of casting it out for a prey?
Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti; Njogerera mu busungu bwange obungi eri amawanga amalala n’eri Edomu yonna, abajjula okusanyuka n’ettima mu mitima gyabwe, ne baddira ensi yange ne bagifuula eyaabwe banyage obugagga bwayo.’
6 Therefore, prophesy concerning the ground of Israel, And you have said to mountains, and to hills, To streams, and to valleys, Thus said Lord YHWH: Behold, I, in My jealousy and in My fury, have spoken, Because you have borne the shame of nations.
Kyonoova owa obunnabbi eri ensi ya Isirayiri n’oyogera eri ensozi n’obusozi, n’eri enzizi n’ebiwonvu nti, bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti, Njogera nga nzijudde obuggya n’obusungu kubanga mwasekererwa nnyo amawanga.
7 Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: I have lifted up My hand, Do the nations who [are] surrounding you not bear their own shame?
Mukama Katonda kyava ayogera nti, Ndayira nti amawanga agabeetoolodde nago galisekererwa.
8 And you, O mountains of Israel, You give out your branch, And you bear your fruits for My people Israel, For they have drawn near to come.
“‘Naye mmwe ensozi za Isirayiri mulireeta amatabi gammwe ne mubalira abantu bange Isirayiri ebibala byammwe kubanga banaatera okudda ewaabwe.
9 For behold, I [am] for you, and have turned to you, And you have been tilled and sown.
Mbalumirwa era ndibatunuulira n’ekisa, era abalimi balikabala ettaka lyammwe ne basigamu ensigo,
10 And I have multiplied men on you, All the house of Israel—all of it, And the cities have been inhabited, And the ruins are built.
era ndibaaza mmwe, ennyumba yonna eya Isirayiri. Ebibuga birituulwamu, n’ebyali ebifulukwa biriddaabirizibwa.
11 And I have multiplied man and beast on you, And they have multiplied and been fruitful, And I have caused you to dwell according to your former states, And I have done better than at your beginnings, And you have known that I [am] YHWH.
Ndyaza abantu n’ensolo, era abantu balyeyongera n’ensolo ne zeeyongera. Ndibazzaayo mu bifo byammwe eby’edda, era ndibakolera ebirungi ebisingawo ku bye nabakolera, mulyoke mumanye nga nze Mukama.
12 And I have caused man to walk over you—My people Israel, And they possess you, and you have been their inheritance, And you no longer add to bereave them.
Ndikkiriza abantu bange, Isirayiri babatambulireko, era balibeddiza, nammwe muliba mugabo gwabwe nga temukyaddamu kubaggyako baana baabwe.
13 Thus said Lord YHWH: Because they are saying to you, You [are] a devourer of men, And you have been a bereaver of your nations,
“‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti, Kubanga abantu baboogerako nti, “Musaanyaawo abantu ne mumalawo ezzadde lye ggwanga lyammwe,”
14 Therefore, you no longer devour man, And you do not cause your nations to stumble anymore, A declaration of Lord YHWH.
kyemuliva mutaddayo kusaanyaawo bantu newaakubadde okubamalako ezzadde ly’eggwanga lyo, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
15 And I do not proclaim the shame of the nations to you anymore, And you no longer bear the reproach of peoples, And your nations do not stumble anymore, A declaration of Lord YHWH.”
Toliwulira nate okusekererwa kw’amawanga newaakubadde okunyoomebwa wadde eggwanga lyo okugwa, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.’”
16 And there is a word of YHWH to me, saying,
Nate ekigambo kya Mukama ne kinzijira n’aŋŋamba nti,
17 “Son of man, The house of Israel are dwelling on their land, And they defile it by their way and by their doings, Their way has been as the uncleanness of a separated one before Me.
“Omwana w’omuntu, abantu ba Isirayiri bwe baaberanga mu nsi yaabwe, baagyonoona olw’empisa zaabwe n’ebikolwa byabwe, era n’ebikolwa byabwe byali ng’obutali bulongoofu obw’omukazi mu biseera bye.
18 And I pour out My fury on them For the blood that they shed on the land, And they have defiled it with their idols.
Olw’omusaayi gwe baayiwa mu nsi, ate n’olw’okusinza bakatonda abalala kwe beeyonoonyesa, kyennava mbayiwako ekiruyi kyange.
19 And I scatter them among nations, And they are spread through lands, According to their way, and according to their doings, I have judged them.
Naye mbasaasaanyiza mu mawanga, ne basaasaana mu nsi. Era nabasalira omusango ng’empisa zaabwe n’ebikolwa byabwe bwe byali.
20 And one goes to the nations to where they have gone, And they defile My holy Name by saying to them, These [are] the people of YHWH, And they have gone forth from His land.
Buli gye baagendanga mu mawanga baaswazanga erinnya lyange ettukuvu, kubanga kyayogerwanga nti, ‘Bano bantu ba Mukama, naye baagobebwa mu nsi ye.’
21 And I have pity on My holy Name, That the house of Israel has defiled Among the nations to where they have gone in.
Nafaayo ku linnya lyange ettukuvu, ennyumba ya Isirayiri lye yaswaza mu mawanga gye baagenda.
22 Therefore, say to the house of Israel, Thus said Lord YHWH: I am not working for your sake, O house of Israel, but for My holy Name That you have defiled Among the nations to where you have gone in.
“Kale nno gamba ennyumba ya Isirayiri nti, ‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti: Ggwe ennyumba ya Isirayiri bino sibikola ku lulwo, naye ku lw’erinnya lyange ettukuvu lye mwavumisa mu mawanga gye mwagenda.
23 And I have sanctified My great Name, That is profaned among the nations, That you have defiled in your midst, And the nations have known that I [am] YHWH, A declaration of Lord YHWH, In My being sanctified in you before your eyes.
Ndiraga obutukuvu bw’erinnya lyange ekkulu, eryavumisibwa mu mawanga, erinnya lye mwavumisa mu bo, era amawanga galimanya nga nze Mukama, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda, bwe ndyolesa obutukuvu bwange mu mmwe mu maaso gaabwe.
24 And I have taken you out of the nations, And have gathered you out of all the lands, And I have brought you into your land,
“‘Ndibaggya mu mawanga ne mbakuŋŋaanya okuva mu nsi zonna ne mbakomyawo mu nsi yammwe.
25 And I have sprinkled clean water over you, And you have been clean; I cleanse you from all your uncleannesses, And from all your idols.
Ndibamaansirako amazzi amayonjo, era ndibaggyako obutali bulongoofu bwammwe bwonna n’okuva ku bakatonda abalala bonna, ne mbafuula abalongoofu.
26 And I have given a new heart to you, And I give a new spirit in your midst, And I have turned aside the heart of stone out of your flesh, And I have given a heart of flesh to you.
Ndibawa omutima omuggya era ne nteeka n’omwoyo omuggya mu mmwe. Ndibaggyamu omutima ogw’ejjinja ne mbawa omutima ogw’ennyama.
27 And I give My Spirit in your midst, And I have done this, so that you walk in My statutes, And you keep My judgments, and have done them.
Era ndibawa Omwoyo wange alibakubiriza okugoberera ebiragiro byange n’okukuuma obulungi amateeka gange.
28 And you have dwelt in the land that I have given to your fathers, And you have been to Me for a people, And I am to you for God.
Mulibeera mu nsi gye nawa bajjajjammwe, nammwe mulibeera bantu bange, nange ne mbeera Katonda wammwe.
29 And I have saved you from all your uncleannesses, And I have called to the grain, and multiplied it, And I have put no famine on you.
Ndibalokola mu butali bulongoofu bwammwe bwonna, era nditumya emmere ey’empeke ne ngyaza nnyo muleme okulumwa enjala.
30 And I have multiplied the fruit of the tree, And the increase of the field, So that you do not receive a reproach of famine among nations anymore.
Ndyaza ebibala eby’oku miti n’ebimera eby’omu nnimiro, nga temukyasekererwa nate mu mawanga olw’enjala.
31 And you have remembered your ways that [are] evil, And your doings that [are] not good, And have been loathsome in your own faces, For your iniquities, and for your abominations.
Olwo mulijjukira amakubo gammwe amabi n’ebikolwa byammwe ebitali birungi, era mulyetamwa olw’ebibi byammwe n’olw’ebikolwa byammwe eby’emizizo.
32 I am not working for your sake, A declaration of Lord YHWH, Be it known to you, Be ashamed and confounded, because of your ways, O house of Israel.
Mukimanye ng’ebyo sibikola ku lwammwe, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda. Muswale olw’ebikolwa byammwe, mmwe ennyumba ya Isirayiri.
33 Thus said Lord YHWH: In the day of My cleansing you from all your iniquities, I have caused the cities to be inhabited, And the ruins have been built,
“‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti: Ku lunaku lwe ndibanaalizaako ebibi byammwe byonna, abantu balidda mu bibuga byammwe n’ebifulukwa biriddaabirizibwa.
34 And the desolate land is tilled, Instead of which it was a desolation before the eyes of everyone passing by,
Ensi eyazika eririmibwa, ereme kuba nga bwe yali mu maaso gaabo bonna abaagiyitangamu.
35 And they have said: This land, that was desolated, Has been as the Garden of Eden, And the cities—the dried up, And the desolated, and the broken down, [And the] fortified have remained.
Balyogera nti, “Ensi eno eyali ezise, kaakano efuuse ng’ennimiro Adeni, n’ebifulukwa n’ebibuga ebyali bifuuse amatongo, kaakano mulimu ababibeeramu, era biriko ne bbugwe.”
36 And the nations who are left around you have known That I, YHWH, have built the thrown down, I have planted the desolated: I, YHWH, have spoken, and I have done [it].
Olwo n’amawanga agaasigalawo agabeetoolodde galimanya nga nze Mukama, naddaabiriza ebyayonoonebwa, n’ennimiro n’ebyali bizise. Nze Mukama nkyogedde, era ndikituukiriza.’
37 Thus said Lord YHWH: Yet this I am inquired of by the house of Israel to do for them: I multiply them as a flock of men,
“Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti: Nate ndiwuliriza ennyumba ya Isirayiri ne mbakolera kino, era ndyaza abantu baabwe babeere bangi ng’ekisibo ky’endiga.
38 As a flock of holy ones, as a flock of Jerusalem, In her appointed times, So the dried up cities are full of flocks of man, And they have known that I [am] YHWH!”
Balyala ng’ebisibo eby’endiga ez’okuweebwayo e Yerusaalemi ku mbaga ezaalagirwa, era n’ebibuga ebyali amatongo ndibijjuza ebibinja by’abantu. Kale balimanya nga nze Mukama.”
