< Deuteronomy 28 >

1 It shall happen, if you shall listen diligently to the voice of Jehovah your God, to observe to do all his commandments which I command you this day, that Jehovah your God will set you on high above all the nations of the earth:
Bw’onoogonderanga Mukama Katonda wo n’okwatanga amateeka ge gonna ge nkuwa leero, Mukama Katonda wo alikugulumiza n’akuteeka waggulu w’amawanga gonna ag’oku nsi.
2 and all these blessings shall come on you, and overtake you, if you shall listen to the voice of Jehovah your God.
Emikisa gino gyonna onoogifunanga n’obeeranga nagyo, bw’onoowuliranga eddoboozi lya Mukama Katonda wo n’omugonderanga:
3 You shall be blessed in the city, and you shall be blessed in the field.
Onooweebwanga omukisa bw’onoobeeranga mu kibuga ne bw’onoobeeranga mu kyalo.
4 You shall be blessed in the fruit of your body, the fruit of your ground, the fruit of your animals, the increase of your livestock, and the young of your flock.
Abaana ab’omu nda yo banaaweebwanga omukisa, n’ebisimbe eby’omu ttaka lyo, n’ebisibo byo ebinaazaalibwanga, Ennyana z’ente ez’amagana go, n’obwana bw’endiga ez’ebisibo byo.
5 Your basket and your kneading trough shall be blessed.
Ekibbo kyo mw’onookuŋŋaanyizanga, n’olutiba lwo mw’onoogoyeranga nabyo binaabanga n’omukisa.
6 You shall be blessed when you come in, and you shall be blessed when you go out.
Onoobanga n’omukisa ng’oyingira era onoobanga n’omukisa ng’ofuluma.
7 Jehovah will cause your enemies who rise up against you to be struck before you. They will come out against you one way, and will flee before you seven ways.
Mukama anaakuwanga okuwangula abalabe bo abanaakulumbanga. Banajjiranga mu kkubo limu okukulumba, naye ne basaasaanira mu makubo musanvu mu maaso go nga bawanguddwa.
8 Jehovah will command the blessing on you in your storehouses, and in all that you put your hand to; and he will bless you in the land which Jehovah your God gives you.
Mukama anaawanga amawanika go omukisa, ne buli ky’onookwatangako engalo zo okukikola anaakiwanga omukisa. Mukama Katonda wo anaakuwanga omukisa ng’oli mu nsi gy’akuwa.
9 Jehovah will establish you for a holy people to himself, as he has sworn to you; if you shall keep the commandments of Jehovah your God, and walk in his ways.
Mukama agenda kukufuula eggwanga lye ettukuvu nga bwe yakusuubiza n’ekirayiro, bw’onookwatanga amateeka ga Mukama Katonda wo n’otambuliranga mu makubo ge.
10 All the peoples of the earth shall see that you are called by the name of Jehovah; and they shall be afraid of you.
Kale nno abantu ab’omu mawanga gonna ag’ensi balitegeera nga bw’oyitibwa erinnya lya Mukama era banaakutyanga.
11 Jehovah will make you plenteous for good, in the fruit of your body, and in the fruit of your livestock, and in the fruit of your ground, in the land which Jehovah swore to your fathers to give you.
Mukama anaakugaggawazanga nnyo mu byonna: mu zadde ery’enda yo, ne mu baana ab’ebisibo byo by’onoolundanga, ne mu bibala eby’omu ttaka lyo, ng’oli mu nsi Mukama gye yalayirira bajjajjaabo okugikuwa.
12 Jehovah will open to you his good treasure in the sky, to give the rain of your land in its season, and to bless all the work of your hand: and you shall lend to many nations, and you shall not borrow.
Mukama alikuggulirawo eggwanika lye ery’obugagga bwe ery’eggulu, n’atonnyesanga enkuba mu ttaka lyo, mu biseera byayo, ne buli kintu kyonna ky’onookolanga anaakiwanga omukisa. Onoowolanga amawanga mangi, kyokka ggwe toogeewolengako n’akatono.
13 Jehovah will make you the head, and not the tail; and you shall be above only, and you shall not be beneath; if you shall listen to the commandments of Jehovah your God, which I command you this day, to observe and to do,
Mukama anaakufuulanga mutwe so si mukira. Bw’onoogonderanga ebiragiro bya Mukama Katonda wo bye nkutegeeza leero, n’obigobereranga n’obwegendereza, onoobanga ku ntikko waggulu, so tookooberenga.
14 and shall not turn aside from any of the words which I command you this day, to the right hand, or to the left, to go after other gods to serve them.
Tokyamanga kulaga ku ludda olwa ddyo oba olwa kkono, ng’oleka ebiragiro bino bye nkutegeeza leero, n’ogobereranga bakatonda abalala n’obaweerezanga.
15 But it shall come to pass, if you will not listen to the voice of Jehovah your God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command you this day, that all these curses shall come on you, and overtake you.
Awo olunaatuukanga bw’otoogonderenga ddoboozi lya Mukama Katonda wo, n’otokwatanga mateeka ge na biragiro bye, bye nkulagira leero, kale ebikolimo bino byonna binaakutuukangako ne bibeera naawe:
16 You shall be cursed in the city, and you shall be cursed in the field.
Onookolimirwanga mu kibuga n’okolimirwanga ne mu kyalo.
17 Your basket and your kneading trough shall be cursed.
Ekibbo kyo mw’onookuŋŋaanyirizanga n’olutiba lwo mw’onoogoyeranga binaakolimirwanga.
18 The fruit of your body, the fruit of your ground, the increase of your livestock, and the young of your flock shall be cursed.
Abaana b’enda yo banaakolimirwanga, n’ekibala ky’ettaka lyo, n’ennyana z’amagana go, n’obwana bw’ebisibo byo byonna binaakolimirwanga.
19 You shall be cursed when you come in, and you shall be cursed when you go out.
Onookolimirwanga ng’oyingira era onookolimirwanga ng’ofuluma.
20 Jehovah will send on you cursing, confusion, and rebuke, in all that you put your hand to do, until you are destroyed, and until you perish quickly; because of the evil of your doings, by which you have forsaken me.
Mukama anaakusindikiranga ebikolimo, n’okutabukatabuka, n’okunenyezebwa mu buli kintu kyonna ky’onoogezangako okukola, okutuusa lw’olizikirizibwa n’osaanawo mangu nnyo olw’ebikolwa byo ebibi, olwokubanga onoobanga omusenguse.
21 Jehovah will make the pestilence cling to you, until he has consumed you from off the land, where you go in to possess it.
Mukama alikulwaza olumbe olutawona olw’olukonvuba, okutuusa lwe lulikumalawo mu nsi gy’ogenda okuyingiramu ogirye.
22 Jehovah will strike you with consumption, and with fever, and with inflammation, and with fiery heat, and with the sword, and with blight, and with mildew; and they shall pursue you until you perish.
Mukama alikulwaza akafuba, n’omusujja n’okubugujja. Era alikusindikira ebbugumu eryokya ennyo, n’ekyeya, n’ekitala, n’okugengewala; era binaakugobereranga okutuusa lw’olizikirira.
23 Your sky that is over your head shall be bronze, and the earth that is under you shall be iron.
Eggulu waggulu w’omutwe gwo liribeera ng’ekikomo, n’ettaka wansi wo liriba ng’ekyuma.
24 Jehovah will make the rain of your land powder and dust: from the sky shall it come down on you, until you are destroyed.
Mukama alifuula enkuba y’omu nsi yo olufufugge, n’enfuufu yokka y’eneekuyiikiranga okuva waggulu mu bire, okutuusa lw’olizikirizibwa.
25 Jehovah will cause you to be struck before your enemies; you shall go out one way against them, and shall flee seven ways before them: and you shall be tossed back and forth among all the kingdoms of the earth.
Mukama anaakulekeranga abalabe bo ne bakuwangulanga. Onoobalumbiranga mu kkubo limu, kyokka n’obadduka ng’obunye emiwabo mu makubo musanvu. Olifuuka kyakikangabwa mu maaso g’amawanga gonna ag’oku nsi.
26 Your dead body shall be food to all birds of the sky, and to the animals of the earth; and there shall be none to frighten them away.
Omulambo gwo gulifuuka mmere ya nnyonyi zonna ez’omu bbanga, n’eri ensolo ez’oku nsi, era tewaabeerengawo n’omu anaazigugobangako.
27 Jehovah will strike you with the boil of Egypt, and with the tumors, and with the scurvy, and with the itch, of which you can not be healed.
Mukama anaakulwazanga amayute g’e Misiri, n’ebizimba, n’amabwa, n’obuwere, by’otoowonyezebwenga.
28 Jehovah will strike you with madness, and with blindness, and with astonishment of heart;
Mukama anaakusuulanga eddalu, anaakuzibanga amaaso, n’okukutabulatabulanga mu ndowooza yo.
29 and you shall grope at noonday, as the blind gropes in darkness, and you shall not prosper in your ways: and you shall be only oppressed and robbed always, and there shall be none to save you.
Mu ttuntu onoowammantanga ng’omuzibe w’amaaso abeera mu kizikiza obudde bwe bwonna. Buli ky’onookolanga onoolemwanga okukituukiriza; onoovumibwanga era onoobbibwanga buli kakedde, naye nga tewaabengawo akudduukirira.
30 You shall betroth a wife, and another man shall lie with her: you shall build a house, and you shall not dwell in it: you shall plant a vineyard, and shall not use its fruit.
Onooyogerezanga omukazi, n’osembereranga n’okumuwasa, naye omusajja omulala anaakumutwalangako n’asulanga naye. Oneezimbiranga ennyumba naye toogisulengamu. Oneesimbiranga ennimiro z’emizabbibu, naye toolyenga ku bibala byamu.
31 Your ox shall be slain before your eyes, and you shall not eat of it: your donkey shall be violently taken away from before your face, and shall not be restored to you: your sheep shall be given to your enemies, and you shall have none to save you.
Sseddume zo zinattirwanga mu maaso go, naye toolyenga ku nnyama zaazo. Endogoyi zo zinabbirwanga mu maaso go, so tebaazikuddizenga. Endiga zo zinaaweebwanga abalabe bo, ne watabaawo adduukirira okuzikuddiza.
32 Your sons and your daughters shall be given to another people; and your eyes shall look, and fail with longing for them all the day: and there shall be nothing in the power of your hand.
Batabani bo ne bawala bo banaagabibwanga mu baamawanga amalala ng’olaba; onoobanoonyanga buli lunaku okutuusa n’amaaso lwe ganaakumyukanga, naye nga tolina maanyi kubaako na kya kukola.
33 The fruit of your ground, and all your labors, shall a nation which you do not know eat up; and you shall be only oppressed and crushed always;
Ab’eggwanga ly’otomanyi banaalyanga ebibala by’ettaka lyo by’onoobanga weerimidde, toobengako na kya kukola wabula okutulugunyizibwanga buli kiseera.
34 so that you shall be mad for the sight of your eyes which you shall see.
Amaaso go bye ganaalabanga binaakusuulanga eddalu.
35 Jehovah will strike you in the knees, and in the legs, with a sore boil, of which you can not be healed, from the sole of your foot to the crown of your head.
Mukama anaakulwazanga amayute ku maviivi ne ku magulu, agataayinzenga kuwonyezebwa, era ne gasaasaananga okuva mu bigere okutuuka ku kawumpo k’omutwe.
36 Jehovah will bring you, and your king whom you shall set over you, to a nation that you have not known, you nor your fathers; and there you shall serve other gods, wood and stone.
Mukama alikuleka, ggwe ne kabaka wo gw’onoobanga weerondedde n’otwalibwa mu ggwanga eddala ly’otowulirangako, ne bajjajjaabo lye bataamanya, n’oweererezanga eyo bakatonda abalala ab’emiti n’amayinja.
37 You shall become an astonishment, a proverb, and a byword, among all the peoples where Jehovah shall lead you away.
Olifuuka ekintu ekyesisiwaza, ekinaanyoomebwanga era ekinaasekererwanga mu mawanga gonna Mukama gy’anaabanga akulazizza.
38 You shall carry much seed out into the field, and shall gather little in; for the locust shall consume it.
Onoosiganga ensigo nnyingi mu nnimiro yo, kyokka onookungulangamu katono, kubanga enzige zinaalyanga ebibala byo byonna.
39 You shall plant vineyards and dress them, but you shall neither drink of the wine, nor harvest; for the worm shall eat them.
Onoosimbanga essamba z’emizabbibu n’ogisaliranga bulungi, naye toonywenga ku nvinnyo wadde okukuŋŋaanya ebibala bya zabbibu, kubanga ensiriŋŋanyi zinaabiryanga.
40 You shall have olive trees throughout all your borders, but you shall not anoint yourself with the oil; for your olives shall drop off.
Onoobeeranga n’emiti egy’emizeeyituuni mu nsi yo yonna, naye togenda kukozesanga ku mafuta gaagyo, kubanga emizeeyituuni gyo ginaakunkumukanga ne gigwa wansi.
41 You shall father sons and daughters, but they shall not be yours; for they shall go into captivity.
Olizaala abaana aboobulenzi n’aboobuwala, naye toosigalenga nabo, kubanga banaatwalibwanga mu busibe.
42 All your trees and the fruit of your ground shall the locust possess.
Enzige zineefuganga emiti gyo gyonna n’ebibala eby’omu ttaka lyo.
43 The foreigner who is in the midst of you shall mount up above you higher and higher; and you shall come down lower and lower.
Bannamawanga b’onoobeeranga nabo bagenda kukulaakulananga balinnye waggulu okukusinganga, nga ggwe weeyongeranga kukka bussi wansi.
44 He shall lend to you, and you shall not lend to him: he shall be the head, and you shall be the tail.
Banaakuwolanga, naye ggwe toobawolenga. Be banaabanga omutwe naye ggwe onoobanga mukira.
45 All these curses shall come on you, and shall pursue you, and overtake you, until you are destroyed; because you did not listen to the voice of Jehovah your God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which he commanded you:
Ebikolimo ebyo byonna binaakujjiranga ne bikulondoolanga ne bikutuukako okutuusa lwe binaakuzikirizanga olw’obutagonderanga Mukama Katonda wo, n’otokwatanga mateeka ge na biragiro bye, bye yakulagiranga.
46 and they shall be on you for a sign and for a wonder, and on your descendants forever.
Binaabeeranga mu ggwe ng’akabonero era ekyewuunyisa gy’oli n’eri bazzukulu bo emirembe gyonna.
47 Because you did not serve Jehovah your God with joyfulness, and with gladness of heart, by reason of the abundance of all things;
Kubanga bwe wabeeranga obulungi n’ebintu ebingi, tewaweerezanga Mukama Katonda wo n’omutima ogujjudde essanyu.
48 therefore you shall serve your enemies whom Jehovah shall send against you, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in want of all things: and he shall put a yoke of iron on your neck, until he has destroyed you.
Noolwekyo ng’oli mu njala ne mu nnyonta, ng’oli bwereere, ng’oli mwavu lunkupe, ojjanga kuweerezanga balabe bo, Mukama b’anaakusindikiranga okulwana naawe! Anaakwambazanga mu bulago bwo ekikoligo eky’ekyuma okutuusa lw’alikuzikiririza ddala.
49 Jehovah will bring a nation against you from far away, from a distant land, as the eagle flies; a nation whose language you shall not understand;
Mukama alikuleetera eggwanga eririva ewala ennyo, ku nkomerero y’ensi, ne likulumba, nga likukkako ng’empungu bw’eva waggulu n’ekka n’amaanyi ku nsi; liriba eggwanga ng’olulimi lwalyo tolutegeera.
50 a nation of fierce facial expressions, that shall not respect the person of the old, nor show favor to the young,
Liribeera eggwanga erijjudde obukambwe mu maaso, eritassaamu kitiibwa bantu bakulu wadde okusaasira abato.
51 and shall eat the fruit of your livestock, and the fruit of your ground, until you are destroyed; that also shall not leave you grain, new wine, or oil, the increase of your livestock, or the young of your flock, until they have caused you to perish.
Balirya abaana b’ebisolo by’omu malundiro go, n’ebibala eby’omu ttaka lyo okutuusa lw’olizikirizibwa. Tebalikulekerawo ku mmere ya mpeke, wadde ku nvinnyo oba ku mafuta, wadde ku nnyana ez’ebiraalo byo, oba ku baana b’endiga ab’ebisibo byo, okutuusa lw’olizikirira.
52 They shall besiege you in all your gates, until your high and fortified walls come down, in which you trusted, throughout all your land; and they shall besiege you in all your gates throughout all your land, which Jehovah your God has given you.
Banaazingizanga ebibuga byo byonna mu nsi yo yonna okutuusa ebisenge ebiwanvu eby’ebigo bye weesiga lwe birigwa wansi. Banaazingizanga ebibuga byonna mu nsi yonna Mukama Katonda wo gy’akuwa.
53 You shall eat the fruit of your own body, the flesh of your sons and of your daughters, whom Jehovah your God has given you, in the siege and in the distress with which your enemies shall distress you.
Olw’okubonaabona abalabe bo kwe banaakutuusangako nga bakuzingizza, onoolyanga ebibala by’olubuto lwo, ennyama ya batabani bo ne bawala bo Mukama Katonda wo b’anaabanga akuwadde.
54 The man who is tender among you, and very delicate, his eye shall be evil toward his brother, and toward the wife of his bosom, and toward the remnant of his children whom he has remaining;
Omusajja asingira ddala obuntubulamu era omuwombeefu mu mmwe, taasaasirenga na muganda we yennyini, oba mukyala we omwagalwa, oba abaana be abanaabanga bakyasigaddewo;
55 so that he will not give to any of them of the flesh of his children whom he shall eat, because he has nothing left him, in the siege and in the distress with which your enemy shall distress you in all your gates.
taawengako n’omu ku nnyama y’abaana be b’anaabanga alya. Kubanga nga takyalina ky’asigazza kyonna mu kubonaabona okungi omulabe wo kw’anaabanga akutuusizzaako ng’akuzingirizza mu bibuga byo byonna.
56 The tender and delicate woman among you, who would not adventure to set the sole of her foot on the ground for delicateness and tenderness, her eye shall be evil toward the husband of her bosom, and toward her son, and toward her daughter,
Omukazi asinga obuntubulamu n’eggonjebwa mu mmwe, nga mwenaanyi nnyo, ataŋŋanga na kulinnyisa kigere kye ku ttaka nga kyereere, taamanyisenga bba omwagalwa, wadde mutabani we, oba muwala we,
57 and toward her young one who comes out from between her feet, and toward her children whom she shall bear; for she shall eat them for want of all things secretly, in the siege and in the distress with which your enemy shall distress you in your gates.
ku mwana gw’anaabanga y’akazaala ow’omu lubuto lwe, n’abaana b’anaazaalanga. Kubanga anaabanga ategese okubalyanga mu nkukutu olw’okubulwako ekyokulya ekirala mu biseera eby’okuzingizibwa era eby’ennaku enzibu ennyo, omulabe wo by’anaabanga akutuusizzaako mu bibuga byo.
58 If you will not observe to do all the words of this law that are written in this book, that you may fear this glorious and fearful name, Jehovah your God;
Bw’otoogonderenga na bwegendereza ebigambo byonna ebiri mu mateeka gano, ebiwandiikiddwa mu kitabo kino, n’ototya era n’otossaamu kitiibwa erinnya lino ery’ettendo era ery’entiisa, eriyitibwa: Mukama Katonda wo,
59 then Jehovah will make your plagues extraordinary, and the plagues of your descendants, even great plagues, and of long continuance, and severe sicknesses, and of long continuance.
kale nno, Mukama anaakuweerezanga endwadde enkambwe ennyo, eri ggwe n’eri ezzadde lyo; endwadde ez’olutentezi era enkambwe ennyo ez’olukonvuba.
60 He will bring on you again all the diseases of Egypt, which you were afraid of; and they shall cling to you.
Anaakuleeteranga endwadde zonna ez’e Misiri, ezaakutiisa ennyo, ne zikwezingangako.
61 Also every sickness, and every plague, which is not written in the book of this law, Jehovah will bring them on you, until you are destroyed.
Era Mukama anaakuleeteranga endwadde eza buli ngeri, n’ebibonoobono ebitawandiikiddwa mu Kitabo eky’Amateeka gano, okutuusa lw’olizikirizibwa.
62 You shall be left few in number, whereas you were as the stars of the sky for multitude; because you did not listen to the voice of Jehovah your God.
Era mulisigala ng’omuwendo gwammwe gusse nnyo wansi, songa mwali ng’emmunyeenye ez’oku ggulu olw’obungi bwammwe; lwa kubanga tewagonderanga ddoboozi lya Mukama Katonda wo.
63 It shall happen that as Jehovah rejoiced over you to do you good, and to multiply you, so Jehovah will rejoice over you to cause you to perish, and to destroy you; and you shall be plucked from off the land where you go in to possess it.
Nga bwe kyasanyusanga ennyo Mukama okubagaggawazanga n’okubaazanga mweyongerenga obungi, bwe kityo kinaamusanyusanga okubaavuwazanga n’okubazikirizanga. Olisimbulwa n’oggibwa mu nsi gy’ogenda okuyingira okugirya.
64 Jehovah will scatter you among all peoples, from the one end of the earth even to the other end of the earth; and there you shall serve other gods, which you have not known, you nor your fathers, even wood and stone.
Mukama anaakusaasaanyanga mu mawanga gonna, okutandikira ku ludda olumu olw’ensi gy’etandikira, okutuuka ku ludda olulala gy’ekoma. Eyo gy’onoosinzizanga bakatonda abalala abakolebwa mu miti ne mu mayinja, ggwe ne bajjajjaabo be mutamanyangako.
65 Among these nations you shall find no ease, and there shall be no rest for the sole of your foot: but Jehovah will give you there a trembling heart, and failing of eyes, and pining of soul;
Mu mawanga ago togenda kuweereraweererangayo wadde ebigere byo okufunirangayo ekiwummulo. Eyo, Mukama anaakuweerangayo omutima ogujugumira, n’amaaso agaagala okuziba olw’okujulirira, n’emmeeme eweddemu essuubi.
66 and your life shall hang in doubt before you; and you shall fear night and day, and shall have no assurance of your life.
Onoobanga mu kubuusabuusa buli kaseera, ng’ojjudde okutya emisana n’ekiro, ng’obulamu bwo tobwekakasa.
67 In the morning you shall say, "I wish it were evening." and at evening you shall say, "I wish it were morning." for the fear of your heart which you shall fear, and for the sight of your eyes which you shall see.
Mu makya onoogambanga nti, “Singa nno bubadde kiro!” Ate ekiro ng’ogamba nti, “Singa nno bubadde makya!” olw’okutya okunajjulanga mu mutima gwo, n’ebyo amaaso go bye ganaalabanga.
68 Jehovah will bring you into Egypt again with ships, by the way of which I said to you, You shall see it no more again: and there you shall sell yourselves to your enemies for bondservants and for bondmaids, and no man shall buy you.
Mukama anaakuzzangayo mu Misiri mu kyombo, ku lugendo lwe nakugaana okuddayo okutambula. Ng’oli eyo oneewangayo weetunde ng’omuddu omusajja oba ng’omuddu omukazi, naye toofunengayo muntu n’omu akugula.
