Jeremiah 14
1 Which it came [the] word of Yahweh to Jeremiah on [the] matters of the droughts.
Ekigambo kya Mukama ekyajjira Yerusaalemi ekikwata ku kyeya.
2 It is in mourning Judah and gates its they are languishing they are in mourning to the earth and [the] outcry of Jerusalem it has gone up.
“Yuda ekungubaga n’ebibuga byayo bifaafaaganye, bakaabira ensi, era omulanga gusimbuse mu Yerusaalemi.
3 And noble [ones] their they have sent (servants their *Q(K)*) for water they have come to [the] cisterns not they have found water they have returned vessels their empty they are ashamed and they are humiliated and they have covered head their.
Abakungu batuma abaddu baabwe okuleeta amazzi; bagenda mu ttanka ez’omu ttaka nga temuli kantu, bakomawo n’ebintu ebikalu; ensonyi nga zibakutte n’essuubi nga libaweddemu; babikka amaaso gaabwe.
4 For sake of the ground [which] it is cracked for not it has come rain in the land they are ashamed farmers they have covered head their.
Ettaka lyatise kubanga enkuba tekyatonnya, abalimi baweddemu amaanyi, babikka ku mitwe gyabwe.
5 For also a doe in the field it has given birth and it has abandoned for not it is grass.
N’empeewo ku ttale ezaala n’ereka awo omwana gwayo kubanga tewali muddo.
6 And wild donkeys they have stood on [the] bare heights they have panted for breath like jackals they have failed eyes their for there not [is] vegetation.
N’ennyumbu ez’omu nsiko ziyimirira ku busozi obukalu nga ziwejjawejja ng’ebibe, amaaso gaazo nga tegalaba bulungi kubanga tezirina kye zirya.”
7 Though iniquities our they have testified against us O Yahweh act for [the] sake of name your for they are many apostasies our to you we have sinned.
Wadde obutali butuukirivu bwaffe butulumiriza, Ayi Mukama, baako ky’okola olw’erinnya lyo. Kubanga tuzze ennyuma emirundi mingi, tukwonoonye nnyo.
8 O hope of Israel deliverer its in a time of distress why? are you like a sojourner in the land and like a traveler [who] he has turned aside to spend [the] night.
Ayi ggwe essuubi lya Isirayiri, Omulokozi waalyo mu biseera eby’okulabiramu ennaku, lwaki oli ng’omuyise mu nsi, ng’omutambuze asula ekiro ekimu?
9 Why? are you like a person astounded like a warrior [who] not he is able to save and you [are] in midst our O Yahweh and name your on us it is called may not you abandon us.
Lwaki oli ng’omuntu gwe baguddeko obugwi, ng’omulwanyi ataliimu maanyi ganunula? Ggwe, Ayi Mukama Katonda, oli wakati mu ffe, era tuyitibwa linnya lyo. Totuleka.
10 Thus he says Yahweh of the people this thus they have loved to wander feet their not they have restrained and Yahweh not he has accepted them now he will remember iniquity their so he may punish sins their.
Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda ku bantu be nti, “Baagala nnyo okubula, tebaziyiza bigere byabwe. Noolwekyo Mukama tabakkiriza era kaakano wakujjukira obutali butuukirivu bwabwe era ababonereze olw’ebibi byabwe.”
11 And he said Yahweh to me may not you pray for the people this for good.
Awo Mukama Katonda n’aŋŋamba nti, “Tosabira bantu bano kubeera bulungi.
12 For they will fast not I [will be] listening to cry of entreaty their even if they will offer up a burnt offering and a grain offering not I [will be] accepting them for by the sword and by famine and by pestilence I [will be] bringing to an end them.
Newaakubadde nga basiiba, sijja kuwulira kukaaba kwabwe, era wadde bawaayo ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa n’ebiweebwayo eby’empeke, sijja kubikkiriza. Naye nnaabazikiriza n’ekitala, n’enjala ne kawumpuli.”
13 And I said alas! - O Lord Yahweh here! the prophets [are] saying to them not you will see sword and famine not it will happen to you for peace of reliability I will give to you in the place this.
Naye ne njogera nti, “Woowe, Mukama Katonda, bannabbi abalala babagamba nti, ‘Tewajja kubaawo lutalo wadde okulumwa enjala. Naye nzija kuleeta mirembe egitakoma mu kifo kino.’”
14 And he said Yahweh to me falsehood the prophets [are] prophesying in name my not I sent them and not I appointed them and not I spoke to them a vision of falsehood and divination (and an idol *Q(K)*) (and [the] deceitfulness of *Q(k)*) own heart their they [are] prophesying to you.
Awo Mukama n’alyoka aŋŋamba nti, “Bannabbi bawa obunnabbi obw’obulimba mu linnya lyange, sibatumanga wadde okubalagira okwogera nabo. Babategeeza okwolesebwa okw’obulimba n’obunnabbi obutaliimu, n’obutaliimu bw’emitima gyabwe.
15 Therefore thus he says Yahweh on the prophets who are prophesying in name my and I not I sent them and they [are] saying sword and famine not it will happen in the land this by the sword and by famine they will meet their end the prophets those.
Noolwekyo, bw’atyo bw’ayogera Mukama, ebikwata ku bannabbi abategeeza ebyobunnabbi mu linnya lyange wadde nga sibatumanga, era abagamba nti, ‘Ekitala n’enjala tebijja kujja mu nsi eno.’ Bannabbi abo bennyini bajja kuzikirizibwa ekitala n’enjala.
16 And the people whom they [are] prophesying to them they will be thrown out in [the] streets of Jerusalem because of - the famine and the sword and not a burier [will belong] to them them wives their and sons their and daughters their and I will pour out on them wickedness their.
N’abantu be bategeezezza obunnabbi balifa enjala n’ekitala ne bakasukibwa mu nguudo babulweko abaziika, bo ne bakazi baabwe, ne batabani baabwe, n’abawala. Kubanga ndibayiwako obusungu obubasaanira.
17 And you will speak to them the word this let them run down eyes my tear[s] night and by day and may not they cease for a breaking great she has been broken [the] virgin of [the] daughter of people my a wound made sick very.
“Kino ky’oba obagamba nti, “‘Leka amaaso gange gakulukute amaziga emisana n’ekiro awatali kukoma; kubanga muwala wange embeerera, abantu bange, bafunye ekiwundu ekinene, ekintu eky’amaanyi.
18 If I went out the field and there! [those] slain of a sword and if I went the city and there! diseases of famine for both prophet as well as priest they have gone about to a land and not they know.
Bwe ŋŋenda mu byalo ndaba abafumitiddwa n’ekitala! Bwe ŋŋenda mu kibuga ndaba okutaagulwataagulwa okw’enjala. Naye nnabbi ne kabona beeyongera okukola emirimu gyabwe mu ggwanga kyokka nga bye boogera bya bulimba.’”
19 ¿ Really have you rejected Judah or? Zion does it abhor self your why? have you struck us and not [belongs] to us healing we waited eagerly for peace and there not [was] good and for a time of healing and there! terror.
Yuda ogigaanidde ddala? Sayuuni ogyetamiriddwa ddala? Otufumitidde ddala awatali kuwonyezebwa? Twasuubira emirembe naye tewali kalungi ke tufunye, ekiseera eky’okuwonyezebwa naye laba tufunye bulabe bwereere.
20 We know O Yahweh wickedness our [the] iniquity of ancestors our for we have sinned to you.
Ayi Mukama tukkiriza ebibi byaffe era n’obutali butuukirivu bwa bajjajjaffe, kubanga ddala twayonoona gy’oli.
21 May not you spurn for [the] sake of name your may not you treat with contempt [the] throne of glory your remember may not you break covenant your with us.
Olw’erinnya lyo totugoba, tovumaganyisa ntebe yo ey’obwakabaka ey’ekitiibwa. Jjukira endagaano gye wakola naffe, togimenya, gituukirize.
22 ¿ [are] there Among [the] vanities of the nations [those who] send rain and or? the heavens do they give copious showers ¿ not you [is] it O Yahweh God our so we may wait eagerly for you for you you have done all these [things].
Waliwo ku bakatonda ababajje bannaggwanga asobola okutonnyesa enkuba? Eggulu ku bw’alyo lisobola okuleeta enkuba? Nedda, wabula ggwe, Ayi Mukama Katonda waffe. Noolwekyo essuubi lyaffe liri mu ggwe, kubanga ggwe okola bino byonna.
