Isaiah 2
1 This is what Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.
Kuno kwe kwolesebwa Isaaya omwana wa Amozi kwe yalaba ku Yuda ne Yerusaalemi.
2 It shall happen in the latter days, that the mountain of YHWH's house shall be established on the top of the mountains, and shall be raised above the hills; and all nations shall flow to it.
Olulituuka mu nnaku ez’oluvannyuma olusozi okuli ennyumba ya Mukama Katonda lulinywezebwa lusinge ensozi zonna okugulumira, luliyimusibwa lusukke ku ndala zonna, era amawanga gonna galilwolekera.
3 And many peoples shall come and say, "Come, let's go up to the mountain of YHWH, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths." For out of Zion the law shall go forth, and the word of YHWH from Jerusalem.
Abantu bangi balijja bagambe nti, Mujje twambuke tulinnye ku lusozi lwa Mukama, mu nnyumba ya Katonda wa Yakobo, alyoke atuyigirize amakubo ge, tulyoke tutambulire mu mateeka ge. Kubanga Mukama aliteeka amateeka ng’asinziira mu Sayuuni, era mu Yerusaalemi abayigirize ekigambo kye.
4 He will judge between the nations, and will decide concerning many peoples; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
Alisala enkaayana z’amawanga, aliramula emisango gy’abantu bangi, era ebitala byabwe balibiwesaamu enkumbi, n’amafumu gaabwe bagaweeseemu ebiwabyo. Eggwanga teririyimusa kitala ku ggwanga linnaalyo, so tebalyetegeka kulwana ntalo nate.
5 House of Jacob, come, and let us walk in the light of YHWH.
Ggwe ennyumba ya Yakobo, mujje tutambulire mu kitangaala kya Mukama Katonda.
6 For you have forsaken your people, the house of Jacob, because they are filled from the east, with those who practice divination like the Philistines, and they clasp hands with the children of foreigners.
Wayabulira abantu bo ab’ennyumba ya Yakobo, kubanga eggwanga lijjudde obusamize obuva mu buvanjuba, n’obulaguzi obuli nga obw’omu Bafirisuuti, era basizza kimu ne bannamawanga.
7 Their land is full of silver and gold, neither is there any end of their treasures. Their land also is full of horses, neither is there any end of their chariots.
Ensi yaabwe ejjudde effeeza ne zaabu, n’obugagga bwabwe tebuliiko kkomo: ensi yaabwe ejjudde embalaasi, era erimu n’amagaali g’embalaasi mangi nnyo.
8 Their land also is full of idols. They worship the work of their own hands, that which their own fingers have made.
Ensi yaabwe ejjudde bakatonda ababumbe, basinza omulimu gw’emikono gyabwe bo, engalo zaabwe gwe zeekolera.
9 So people bow down, people are low, therefore do not lift them up.
Kale omuntu wa kukkakkanyizibwa, omuntu wa kussibwa wansi. Mukama, tobasonyiwa!
10 Enter into the rock, and hide in the dust, from before the terror of YHWH, and from the glory of his majesty.
Mugende mwekweke mu njazi, mwekweke mu binnya wansi mu ttaka, nga mudduka entiisa ya Mukama Katonda, nga mudduka entiisa y’ekitiibwa ky’obukulu bwe.
11 The proud looks of humankind will be brought low, and the arrogance of people will be brought down; and YHWH alone will be exalted in that day.
Olunaku lujja okweyisa kw’omuntu n’amalala ge lwe birizikirizibwa, era Mukama Katonda yekka yaligulumizibwa ku olwo.
12 For there will be a day of YHWH of hosts for all that is proud and haughty, and for all that is lifted up and high; and it shall be brought low:
Kubanga Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye alina olunaku lw’ategese eri abo bonna ab’amalala era abeewanise, eri ebyo byonna eby’egulumiza ebijjudde okwemanya n’okwewulira.
13 For all the cedars of Lebanon, that are high and lifted up, for all the oaks of Bashan,
Alizikiriza emiti gy’omu Lebanooni, emiwanvu emigulumivu, n’emivule gyonna egya Basani.
14 For all the high mountains, for all the hills that are lifted up,
Era n’ensozi zonna empanvu, n’obusozi bwonna obugulumivu.
15 For every lofty tower, for every fortified wall,
Na buli mulongooti gwonna omuwanvu, na buli bbugwe gwe bakomese.
16 For all the ships of Tarshish, and for all pleasant imagery.
Alizikiriza emmeeri zonna ez’e Talusiisi, n’ebifaananyi byonna ebisiige eby’omuwendo omungi.
17 The loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the haughtiness of men shall be brought low; and YHWH alone shall be exalted in that day.
Era okwegulumiza kw’abantu kulijemulukuka, n’amalala g’abantu galissibwa; era Mukama Katonda yekka yaligulumizibwa ku lunaku olwo.
18 The idols shall utterly pass away.
N’ebifaananyi bye basinza birizikiririzibwa ddala ku olwo.
19 Men shall go into the caves of the rocks, and into the holes of the earth, from before the terror of YHWH, and from the glory of his majesty, when he arises to shake the earth mightily.
Abantu balidduka ne beekweka mu mpuku mu mayinja, ne mu binnya mu ttaka, nga badduka entiisa n’ekitiibwa ky’obukulu bwa Mukama Katonda, bwaliyimuka okukankanya ensi n’amaanyi.
20 In that day, people will cast away their idols of silver and their idols of gold to the rodents and to the bats, which have been made for themselves to worship;
Ku lunaku olwo abantu balisuulira ddala bakatonda baabwe abakole mu ffeeza, n’abakole mu zaabu, be beekolera nga ba kusinzanga, ne babakanyuga eri emmese n’eri ebinyira.
21 to go into the caverns of the rocks, and into the clefts of the ragged rocks, from before the terror of YHWH, and from the glory of his majesty, when he arises to shake the earth mightily.
Balidduka ne beekukuma mu mpuku ez’amayinja amaatifu nga badduka entiisa n’ekitiibwa ky’obukulu bwa Mukama Katonda, bwaliyimuka okukankanya ensi.
22 Stop trusting in man, whose breath is in his nostrils; for of what account is he?
Mulekeraawo okwesiga omuntu alina omukka obukka mu nnyindo ze. Kiki ennyo kyali?
