Isaiah 34
1 Come near, you nations, to hear, And you peoples, give attention, The earth and its fullness hear, The world, and all its productions.
Musembere mmwe amawanga muwulirize. Musseeyo omwoyo mmwe abantu. Ensi ewulirize, ne byonna ebigirimu, ensi ne byonna ebigivaamu.
2 For to YHWH [is] wrath against all the nations, And fury against all their host, He has devoted them to destruction, He has given them to slaughter.
Mukama anyiigidde amawanga gonna, ekiruyi kye kiri ku magye gaabwe gonna. Alibazikiririza ddala, alibawaayo okuttibwa.
3 And their wounded are cast out, And their carcasses cause their stench to ascend, And mountains have been melted from their blood.
Abantu baabwe abattibwa balisuulibwa ebweru, n’emirambo gyabwe giriwunya, n’ensozi zirinnyikira omusaayi gwabwe.
4 And all the host of the heavens have been consumed, And the heavens have been rolled together as a scroll, And all their hosts fade, As the fading of a leaf of a vine, And as the fading one of a fig tree.
Emmunyeenye zonna ez’omu ggulu zirisaanuuka, n’eggulu liryezingako ng’omuzingo; n’eggye ery’omu ggulu lirigwa, ng’ebikoola ebiwotose ebiva ku muzabbibu, ng’ebirimba ebyayongobera ebiva ku mutiini.
5 For My sword was soaked in the heavens, Behold, it comes down on Edom, On the people of My curse for judgment.
Weewaawo ekitala kyange kinywedde ne kijjuzibwa mu ggulu, era laba, kikkira ku Edomu okusala omusango, abantu be mmaliddewo ddala.
6 A sword [is] to YHWH—it has been full of blood, It has been made fat with fatness, With blood of lambs and male goats. With fat of kidneys of rams, For to YHWH [is] a sacrifice in Bozrah, And a great slaughter in the land of Edom.
Ekitala kya Mukama kisaabye omusaayi, kiriko amasavu, omusaayi gw’abaana b’endiga n’embuzi, amasavu agava mu nsingo za sseddume. Mukama alina ekiweebwayo mu Bozula, era waliyo n’okuttibwa okw’amaanyi mu Edomu.
7 And reems have come down with them, And bullocks with bulls, And their land has been soaked from blood, And their dust is made fat from fatness.
Embogo zirifiira wamu nazo, n’obute obulume, ne ziseddume zirifiira wamu nazo. Ensi yaabwe erijjula omusaayi, n’enfuufu erinnyikira amasavu.
8 (For a day of vengeance [is] to YHWH, A year of recompenses for Zion’s strife),
Mukama alina olunaku olw’okuwalanirako eggwanga, omwaka ogw’okwesasuza, olw’ensonga eya Sayuuni.
9 And her streams have been turned to pitch, And her dust to brimstone, And her land has become burning pitch.
Emigga gya Edomu girikalira ne gifuuka bulimbo, n’enfuufu ye erifuuka ng’obuwunga bwa salufa ayokya. Ensi ye erifuuka ng’obulimbo obuggya omuliro.
10 She is not quenched by night and by day, Her smoke goes up for all time, She is desolate from generation to generation, Forever and ever, none is passing into her.
Talizikizibwa emisana n’ekiro, n’omukka gwe gulinyooka ennaku zonna. Edomu alisigala kifulukwa emirembe n’emirembe, era tewaliba n’omu ayita mu nsi eyo.
11 And pelican and hedgehog possess her, And owl and raven dwell in her, And He has stretched out over her A line of vacancy, and stones of emptiness.
Ekiwuugulu eky’omu ddungu n’ekiwuugulu ekireekaana, birikibeeramu. Ekiwuugulu ekinene ne namuŋŋoona birizimbamu ebisu byabyo. Katonda aligololera ekipimo eky’okwewunika, n’ekipimo ekinaaleka Edomu nga njereere.
12 They call her nobles [to] the kingdom, But there are none there, And all her princes are at an end.
Abakungu be tebalibaako kye bayita bwakabaka, n’abalangira be bonna baliggwaawo.
13 And thorns have gone up her palaces, Nettle and bramble [are] in her fortresses, And it has been a habitation of dragons, A court for daughters of an ostrich.
Amaggwa galimera ku minaala egy’ekibuga kye, n’emyennyango n’amatovu ne bimera mu bigo bye ebyanywezebwa. Aliyiggibwa ebibe, era ebiwuugulu birimufuula ekifo eky’okuwummulirangamu.
14 And desert-dwellers have met with howlers, And the goat calls for its companion, Surely the night-owl has rested there, And has found a place of rest for herself.
Ensolo ez’omu ddungu gye zirisisinkana empisi, n’embuzi enkambwe ez’omu nsiko gye ziriramusiganyiza. Era eyo ebisolo ebitambula ekiro nabyo biriwummula nga byefunidde ekifo eky’okuwummulirangamu.
15 The owl has made her nest there, Indeed, she lays, and has hatched, And has gathered under her shadow, Surely vultures have been gathered there, Each with its companion.
Ekiwuugulu kiribiikira eyo amagi, ne kigaalula, ne kirabirira abaana baakyo wansi w’ekisiikirize kyakyo. Era eyo ne kamunye gy’alikuŋŋaanira, empanga n’enseera.
16 Seek out of the scroll of YHWH, and read, One of these has not been lacking, None has missed its companion, For My mouth—it has commanded, And His Spirit—He has gathered them.
Tunula mu muzingo gwa Mukama osome. Tewali na kimu ku ebyo ekiribulayo, era ekirume kiriba n’ekikazi, n’ekikazi ne kiba n’ekirume. Akamwa ka Mukama ke kalagidde, era Omwoyo we yalibikuŋŋaanya.
17 And He has cast a lot for them, And His hand has apportioned [it] to them by line, They possess it for all time, They dwell in it from generation to generation!
Agabira buli kimu omugabo gwakyo, era omukono gwe gubigabanyiza mu kigera. Birikibeeramu ennaku zonna, bibeere omwo emirembe n’emirembe.
