Jeremiah 12
1 [are] righteous You O Yahweh if I bring a case to you nevertheless judgments I will speak with you why? [the] way of wicked [people] does it prosper are they at ease? all [those who] act treacherously of treachery.
Bulijjo oba mutuukirivu, Ayi Mukama Katonda, bwe nkuleetera ensonga yange. Noolwekyo nnaaleeta ensonga yange gy’oli. Lwaki abakozi b’ebibi baba mu kwesiima? Lwaki abalimbalimba bonna baba mu bulamu obw’emirembe?
2 You have planted them also they have taken root they walk also they have produced fruit [are] near you in mouth their and distant from kidneys their.
Wabasimba, emirandira ne ginywera, bakula ne baleeta ebibala. Tova ku mimwa gyabwe bulijjo wadde ng’oliwala n’emitima gyabwe.
3 And you O Yahweh you know me you see me and you test heart my with you drag away them like sheep to slaughter and set apart them to a day of slaughter.
Ate ng’ommanyi Ayi Mukama Katonda, ondaba era otegeera bye nkulowoozaako. Sika otwale abasajja bano ababi ng’endiga ezigenda okuttibwa. Bategekere olunaku lwe balisanjagirwako.
4 Until when? will it dry up the land and [the] vegetation of every field will it be dried up from [the] evil of [those who] dwell in it it has dwindled away animals and bird[s] for people have said not he will see end our.
Ensi erikoma ddi okwonooneka, n’omuddo mu buli nnimiro okukala? Kubanga abo abali mu nsi bakozi ba bibi, ensolo n’ebinyonyi bizikiridde, kubanga abantu bagamba nti, “Katonda taalabe binaatutuukako.”
5 If with foot soldiers - you have run and they have made weary you and how? will you compete with the horses and in a land of safety you [are] falling to [the] ground and how? will you do in [the] thicket of the Jordan.
“Bw’oba owakana n’abaddusi b’embiro n’oggwaamu amaanyi oyinza otya okudduka n’embalaasi? Obanga mu nsi entereevu weesitadde n’ogwa bugwi, onoosobolayo otya mu nsiko y’oku Yoludaani?
6 For also brothers your and [the] house of father your also they they have dealt treacherously with you also they they have called out after you full may not you trust in them for they speak to you good things.
Ne baganda bo n’ab’omu nnyumba ya kitaawo nabo bennyini bakwefuukidde, beegasse ku abo abawowoggana nga bakulangiriza. Tobeesiga wadde nga bakwogerako bulungi.”
7 I have forsaken house my I have abandoned inheritance my I have given [the] beloved one of self my in [the] hand enemies her.
“Njabulidde ennyumba yange, ne ndeka omugabo gwange; mpaddeyo abo emmeeme yange b’eyagala, mu mikono gy’abalabe baabwe.
8 It has become to me inheritance my like a lion in the forest it has given on me with voice its there-fore I hate it.
Abantu bange be nalonda banfuukidde ng’empologoma eri mu kibira; empulugumira, noolwekyo mbakyaye.
9 ¿ A bird of prey speckled [is] inheritance my to me that [are] bird[s] of prey? all around on it go gather every animal of the field bring [them] for food.
Abantu bange be nalonda tebanfuukidde ng’ennyonyi erya ginnaazo ey’amabala, ebinyonyi ebirala ebirya binaabyo gye bizingiza ne bigirumba? Mugende mukuŋŋaanye ensolo zonna ez’omu nsiko muzireete zirye.
10 Shepherds many they have ruined vineyard my they have trodden down portion my they have made [the] portion of desire my into a wilderness of desolation.
Abasumba bangi boonoonye ennimiro yange ey’emizabbibu, balinnyiridde ennimiro yange, ensi yange ennungi bagirese njereere.
11 He has made it into a desolation it is in mourning on me desolate it has been made desolate all the land for there not [is] anyone [who] puts [it] on heart.
Eyonooneddwa efuuse ddungu esigadde awo ng’enkaabirira. Ensi yonna efuuse matongo kubanga tewali muntu n’omu agifaako.
12 Over all [the] bare heights in the wilderness they have come destroyers for a sword of Yahweh [is] devouring from an end of [the] land and to [the] end of the land not peace [belongs] to any flesh.
Abanyazi bazze batuuse ku nsozi zonna ez’omu ddungu, kubanga ekitala kya Mukama kijja kulya okuva ku nsonda emu ey’ensi okutuuka ku ndala, awataliiwo n’omu kuwona.
13 People have sown wheat and thorns they have reaped they have wearied themselves not they have profited and be ashamed from produce your from [the] burning of [the] anger of Yahweh.
Basize eŋŋaano, ne bakungula amaggwa. Bakooyedde bwereere ne bataba na kebaggyamu. Bakwatiddwa ensonyi olw’ebibala bye bakunguddeyo, kubanga ebyo Mukama y’abikoze olw’obusungu bwe obungi.”
14 Thus - he says Yahweh on all neighbors my evil who touch the inheritance which I gave as an inheritance people my Israel here I [am] about to pluck up them from on land their and [the] house of Judah I will pluck up from among them.
Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti, “Ebikwata ku baliraanwa bange ababi nga bifa ku mugabo gwe nawa abantu bange Isirayiri okuba ogwabwe, laba ndibasiguukulula okuva mu nsi yaabwe, era ndiggya ennyumba ya Yuda mu bo.
15 And it will be after have plucked up I them I will return and I will have compassion on them and I will bring back them everyone to own inheritance his and everyone to own land his.
Naye nga mmaze okubasiguukululamu, ndibakwatirwa ekisa ne mbakomyawo buli omu eri omugabo gwe mu nsi ye.
16 And it will be certainly [if] they will learn [the] ways of people my to swear by name my [by] [the] life of Yahweh just as they taught people my to swear by Baal and they will be built in among people my.
Era nga bwe bayigiriza abantu bange okulayirira mu linnya lya Baali bwe batyo balikwatira ddala empisa z’abantu bange, okulayirira mu linnya lyange nga boogera nti, ‘Nga Mukama bw’ali omulamu,’ olwo balizimbibwa wakati mu bantu bange.
17 And if not they will listen and I will pluck up the nation that plucking up and destroying [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Naye eggwanga bwe litalissaayo mwoyo, ndirisiguukulula ne ndisaanyizaawo ddala,” bw’ayogera Mukama.
