Isaiah 6
1 In the year of the death of King Uzziah—I see the Lord, sitting on a throne, high and lifted up, and His train is filling the temple.
Awo mu mwaka kabaka Uzziya mwe yafiira, nalaba Mukama ng’atudde ku ntebe empanvu ng’agulumizibbwa, n’ekirenge ky’ekyambalo kye nga kijjula yeekaalu.
2 Seraphim are standing above it: each one has six wings; with two [each] covers its face, and with two [each] covers its feet, and with two [each] flies.
Waggulu we yali waali wayimiriddewo basseraafi: buli omu ng’alina ebiwaawaatiro mukaaga, ebibiri nga bye bibikka ku maaso ge, ebibiri nga bye bibikka ku bigere bye, n’ebibiri ng’abibuusa.
3 And this one has called to that, and has said: “HOLY, HOLY, HOLY, [is] YHWH of Hosts, The fullness of all the earth [is] His glory!”
Buli omu yali ng’ayogera ne munne n’eddoboozi ery’omwanguka nti, “Mutukuvu, mutukuvu, mutukuvu, Mukama Katonda Ayinzabyonna: ensi yonna ejjudde ekitiibwa kye.”
4 And the posts of the thresholds are moved by the voice of him who is calling, and the house is full of smoke.
N’emisingi gy’emiryango ne ginyeenyezebwa olw’eddoboozi ly’oyo eyali akoowoola mu ddoboozi ery’omwanguka, yeekaalu n’ejjula omukka.
5 And I say, “Woe to me, for I have been silent, For I [am] a man of unclean lips, And I am dwelling in [the] midst of a people of unclean lips, Because the King, YHWH of Hosts, my eyes have seen.”
Ne ndyoka nkaaba nti, “Zinsanze nze! Nfudde mpeddewo! Kubanga ndi muntu ow’emimwa egitali mirongoofu, era mbeera wakati mu bantu ab’emimwa egitali mirongoofu; kubanga amaaso gange galabye Kabaka, Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye!”
6 And one of the seraphim flees to me, and in his hand—a burning coal (with tongs he has taken [it] from off the altar),
Olwo omu ku basseraafi n’alyoka abuuka n’ajja gye ndi ng’alina eryanda eryaka mu ngalo ze, lye yali aggye ku kyoto ne nnamagalo.
7 and he strikes against my mouth and says: “Behold, this has struck against your lips, And your iniquity is turned aside, And your sin is covered.”
Era n’alikomya ku kamwa kange, n’agamba nti, “Laba, lino likoonye ku mimwa gyo, era obutali butuukirivu bwo bukuggyiddwako. Era n’ekibi kyo kikusonyiyiddwa.”
8 And I hear the voice of the Lord, saying, “Whom do I send? And who goes for Us?” And I say, “Here I [am], send me.”
Ne mpulira eddoboozi lya Mukama ng’abuuza nti, “Naatuma ani, era ani anaagenda ku lwaffe?” Ne ndyoka njogera nti, “Nze wendi! Tuma nze!”
9 And He says, “Go, and you have said to this people, Hearing you hear, and you do not understand, And seeing you see, and you do not know.
Nayogera nti, “Genda obuulire abantu bano nti, “‘Okuwulira munaawuliranga naye temutegeerenga, n’okulaba munaalabanga naye temutegeerenga kye mulabye.’
10 Declare the heart of this people fat, And declare its ears heavy, And declare its eyes dazzled, Lest it see with its eyes, And hear with its ears, and consider with its heart, And it has turned back, and has health.”
Okakanyaze omutima gw’abantu bano, oggale amatu gaabwe, n’amaaso gazibe si kulwa nga balaba n’amaaso gaabwe oba okuwulira n’amatu gaabwe oba okutegeera n’emitima gyabwe ne bakyuka bawonyezebwe.”
11 And I say, “Until when, O Lord?” And He says, “Surely until cities have been ruined without inhabitant, And houses without man, And the ground is ruined—a desolation,
Ne ndyoka njogera nti, “Mukama wange birituusa ddi okuba bwe biti?” Nanziramu nti, “Okutuusa ebibuga lwe birizika nga tewali abibeeramu, ne mu mayumba nga temuli muntu, ensi ng’esigalidde awo,
12 And YHWH has put man far off, And the forsaken part [is] great in the heart of the land.
okutuusa nga Mukama Katonda agobedde wala buli muntu, era ng’ensi esigadde matongo.
13 And yet a tenth in it, and it has turned, And has been for a burning, As a teil-tree, and as an oak, that in falling, Has substance in them, The holy seed [is] its substance!”
N’ekimu eky’ekkumi ekiriba kisigaddewo, nakyo kirizikirizibwa. Naye ng’omumyuliru n’omuvule bwe gireka ebikolo byagyo bwe gitemebwa, bw’etyo ensigo entukuvu bw’erigwa mu ttaka n’esigala ng’ekikolo mu nsi.”
