< Jeremiah 50 >
1 The word which he spoke Yahweh concerning Babylon concerning [the] land of [the] Chaldeans by [the] hand of Jeremiah the prophet.
Kino kye kigambo Mukama Katonda kye yayogerera mu nnabbi Yeremiya ekikwata ku Babulooni n’ensi ey’Abakaludaaya.
2 Declare among the nations and make a proclamation and lift up a standard make a proclamation may not you hide [it] say it will be captured Babylon it will be put to shame Bel it will be shattered Marduk they will be put to shame images its they will be shattered idols its.
“Buulira mu mawanga era olangirire, yimusa bendera olangirire, tolekaayo kintu kyonna ogambe nti, ‘Babulooni eriwambibwa; Beri kiswale, ne Meroddaaki kijjule entiisa. Ebifaananyi bya bakatonda abakole n’emikono bijja kuswala era bitye.’
3 For it will go up on it a nation from [the] north it it will make land its into a waste and not he will be an inhabitant in it from humankind and unto animal[s] they will take flight they will go.
Eggwanga okuva mu bukiikakkono lijja kukirumba lyonoone ensi y’Abakaludaaya. Tewali muntu alisigalamu; abantu bonna balikiddukamu era n’ensolo zonna.
4 In the days those and at the time that [the] utterance of Yahweh they will come [the] people of Israel they and [the] people of Judah together going and weeping they will go and Yahweh God their they will seek.
“Mu nnaku ezo, era mu kiseera ekyo,” bw’ayogera Mukama, “abantu ba Isirayiri awamu n’abantu ba Yuda balikaaba amaziga nga banoonya Mukama Katonda waabwe.
5 Zion they will ask for [will be] [the] direction hither faces their come and they will join themselves to Yahweh a covenant of perpetuity not it will be forgotten.
Balibuuza ekkubo eridda e Sayuuni era bakyuse obwenyi bwabwe okukitunuulira, nga boogera nti, Mujje twesibe ku Mukama Katonda mu ndagaano ey’emirembe gyonna etegenda kwerabirwa.
6 Sheep lost (they have become *Q(K)*) people my shepherds their they have caused to wander them mountains (they have led away them *Q(K)*) from mountain to hill they have gone they have forgotten resting place their.
“Abantu bange babadde ndiga ezibuze; abasumba baabwe babawabizza ne babatuusa ku kutaataaganira ku nsozi. Baava ku lusozi ne badda ku kasozi ne beerabira ekifo kyabwe eky’okuwummuliramu.
7 All [those who] found them they devoured them and opponents their they said not we are guilty because that they have sinned to Yahweh [the] habitation of righteousness and [the] hope of ancestors their Yahweh.
Buli eyabasanganga nga abatulugunya; abalabe baabwe ne bagamba nti, ‘Tetulina musango gwe tuzza, kubanga baajeemera Mukama Katonda, obuddukiro bwabwe obwa nnama ddala, ye Mukama, essuubi lya bakitaabwe.’
8 Take flight from [the] midst of Babylon and from [the] land of [the] Chaldeans (go forth *Q(K)*) and be like male goats before [the] flock.
“Mudduke okuva e Babulooni; muleke ensi y’Abakaludaaya, mubeere ng’embuzi ezikulembera ekisibo.
9 For here! I [am] about to rouse and [am] about to bring up on Babylon an assembly of nations great from a land of [the] north and they will line up to it from there it will be captured arrows its [will be] like a warrior skillful [who] not he returns empty.
Kubanga, laba, ndigolokosa ekibiina ky’amawanga amanene okuva mu nsi ey’obukiikakkono okulumba Babulooni. Baliyimirira mu nnyiriri zaabwe bakirumbe, bakiwambe nga basinzira mu bukiikakkono. Obusaale bwabwe buliba ng’obw’abalwanyi abakugu, abataddira awo ngalo nsa.
10 And it will become Chaldea plunder all [those who] plunder it they will be satisfied [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Noolwekyo ensi y’Abakaludaaya erinyagibwa; abo bonna abaliginyaga balitwala byonna bye baagala,” bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
11 That (you are rejoicing *Q(K)*) that (you are gloating *Q(K)*) O plunderers of inheritance my that (you are skipping about *Q(K)*) like a heifer threshing (so you may neigh *Q(K)*) like mighty [horses].
“Kubanga musanyuka ne mujaguza, mmwe abaanyaga omugabo gwabwe, kubanga muligita ng’ente enduusi ewuula emmere ey’empeke, ne muleekaana ng’embalaasi ennume enkulu,
12 She will be ashamed mother your exceedingly she will be abashed [the one who] gave birth you there! [the] last of nations a wilderness a desert and a desert plain.
nnyammwe alikwatibwa ensonyi; oyo eyakuzaala aliswazibwa. Aliba ensi esemberayo ddala, ensiko, ensi enkalu, eddungu.
13 From [the] wrath of Yahweh not it will remain and it will be a waste all of it every [one who] passes by at Babylon he will be appalled and he may hiss on all wounds its.
Olw’obusungu bwa Mukama Katonda tajja kubeeramu bantu, naye alisigala matongo. Bonna abayita e Babulooni balyewuunya batye era bakisooze olw’ebiwundu bye byonna.
14 Line up on Babylon - all around O all [those who] bend a bow shoot against it may not you spare an arrow for to Yahweh it has sinned.
“Musimbe ennyiriri okwetooloola Babulooni, mwenna abanaanuula omutego. Mumulase! Temulekaawo kasaale n’akamu, kubanga yajeemera Mukama Katonda.
15 Shout out on it all around it will give hand its they will fall (towers its *Q(k)*) they will be torn down walls its for [is] [the] vengeance of Yahweh that avenge yourself on it just as it has done do to it.
Mumukube olube ku buli ludda. Ajeemulukuse, eminaala gye gigwa, n’ebisenge bye bimenyeddwa. Kubanga kuno kwe kwesasuza kwa Mukama Katonda, mumwesasuzeeko; mumukole nga bw’akoze abalala.
16 Cut off [the] sower from Babylon and [one who] wields a sickle at a time of harvest from before [the] sword of the oppressor everyone to people his they will turn and everyone to own land his they will flee.
Asiga mumuggye mu Babulooni, n’omukunguzi oyo akwata ekiwabyo mumuggye mu makungula. Olw’ekitala ky’omujoozi, leka buli omu addukire mu nsi y’ewaabwe, buli muntu adde eri abantu be.
17 [is] sheep Scattered Israel [which] lions they have driven away the first [lion] he devoured it [the] king of Assyria and this the last [lion] he gnawed bones its Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon.
“Isirayiri kisibo kya ndiga ezisaasaanye, empologoma kye zigobye. Eyasooka okumulya yali kabaka wa Bwasuli; eyasembayo okumenya amagumba ge yali Nebukadduneeza kabaka w’e Babulooni.”
18 Therefore thus he says Yahweh of hosts [the] God of Israel here I [am] about to visit [judgment] to [the] king of Babylon and to land his just as I visited [judgment] to [the] king of Assyria.
Noolwekyo bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama ow’Eggye, Katonda wa Isirayiri nti, “Ndibonereza kabaka w’e Babulooni n’ensi ye nga bwe nabonereza kabaka w’e Bwasuli.
19 And I will restore Israel to pasture its and it will graze Carmel and Bashan and in [the] hill country of Ephraim and Gilead it will be satisfied appetite its.
Naye ndikomyawo Isirayiri mu kisibo kye era aliriira ku Kalumeeri ne Basani; alikuttira ku busozi bwa Efulayimu, ne mu Gireyaadi.
20 In the days those and at the time that [the] utterance of Yahweh it will be sought [the] iniquity of Israel and there not [will be] it and [the] sins of Judah and not they will be found for I will forgive [those] whom I will leave as a remnant.
Mu nnaku ezo, era mu biseera ebyo,” bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda, “omusango ku Isirayiri gulinoonyezebwa, naye tegulibaawo, era n’ebibi bya Yuda birinoonyezebwa, naye tewaliba na kimu, kubanga ndisonyiwa abo bendeseewo.
21 On the land of Merathaim go up on it and against [the] inhabitants of Pekod kill and totally destroy after them [the] utterance of Yahweh and do according to all that I have commanded you.
“Mulumbe ensi ye Merasayimu n’abo abali mu Pekodi. Mubagoberere mubatte, mubazikiririze ddala,” bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda. “Mukole byonna bye mbalagidde.
22 A sound of battle [will be] in the land and destruction great.
Oluyoogaano lw’olutalo luwulirwa mu ggwanga, eddoboozi ery’okuzikiriza okunene!
23 How! it has been cut off and it has been broken [the] hammer of all the earth how! it has become a horror Babylon among the nations.
Ennyondo y’ensi yonna ng’ekubiddwa n’emenyeka! Babulooni kifuuse matongo mu mawanga!
24 I set a trap for you and also you were caught O Babylon and you not you knew you were found and also you were caught for with Yahweh you engaged in strife.
Nakutegera omutego, ggwe Babulooni, babagwiikiriza ne babakwata nga tebategedde, baakukwata ne bakuwamba kubanga wawakanya Mukama.
25 He has opened Yahweh armory his and he has brought out [the] weapons of indignation his for a work it [belongs] to [the] Lord Yahweh of hosts in [the] land of [the] Chaldeans.
Mukama agguddewo etterekero ly’ebyokulwanyisa bye naggyamu ebyokulwanyisa eby’ekiruyi kye, kubanga Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye alina omulimu ogw’okukola mu nsi y’Abakaludaaya.
26 Come to it from [the] end open granaries its pile up it like heaps and totally destroy it may not it belong to it a remnant.
Mujje mumulumbe mmwe abava mu buli nsonda, mumenye ebyagi eby’emmere y’empeke, mumukuŋŋaanye abe ng’entuumo y’emmere y’empeke. Mumuzikiririze ddala; waleme kusigalawo n’omu ku bo.
27 Kill all young bulls its let them go down to the slaughter woe! on them for it has come day their [the] time of punishment their.
Mutte ennume zaabwe zonna, muzitwale zittibwe. Zibasanze kubanga olunaku lwabwe lutuuse, kye kiseera kyabwe eky’okubonerezebwa.
28 [the] sound of Fugitives and escapees from [the] land of Babylon to declare in Zion [the] vengeance of Yahweh God our [the] vengeance of temple his.
Muwulire eby’abadduka n’abanoonyi b’obubudamu okuva mu Babulooni nga balangirira mu Sayuuni engeri Mukama Katonda waffe gye yeesasuzza, gye yeesasuzza olwa yeekaalu ye.
29 Summon against Babylon - archers all [those who] bend a bow encamp on it all around may not (it be to it *Q(K)*) escape repay to it according to deed[s] its according to all that it has done do to it for Yahweh it has defied proudly [the] holy [one] of Israel.
“Koowoola abalasi b’obusaale balumbe Babulooni, ne bonna abanaanuula omutego. Mumwetooloole yenna; tewaba n’omu awona. Mumusasule olw’ebikolwa bye byonna; mumukole nga bwe yakola banne. Kubanga yanyooma Mukama, Omutukuvu wa Isirayiri.
30 Therefore they will fall young men its in open places its and all [the] men of war its they will be silenced on the day that [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Noolwekyo, abavubuka be baligwa mu nguudo; abaserikale be balisirisibwa ku lunaku olwo,” bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
31 Here I [am] against you O arrogance [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh of hosts that it has come day your [the] time [when] I will visit you.
“Laba, ndi mulabe wo, ggwe ow’amalala,” bw’ayogera Mukama, Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye, “Kubanga olunaku lwo lutuuse, ekiseera ky’on’obonerezebwamu.
32 And it will stumble arrogance and it will fall and not [will belong] to it [one who] raises up and I will kindle fire in cities its and it will devour all around it.
Oyo ow’amalala alyesittala agwe era teri n’omu alimuyamba kuyimuka; Ndikoleeza omuliro mu bibuga bye oguliyokya bonna abamwetoolodde.”
33 Thus he says Yahweh of hosts [are] oppressed [the] people of Israel and [the] people of Judah together and all captors their they have kept hold on them they have refused to let go them.
Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye nti, “Abantu ba Isirayiri banyigirizibwa awamu n’abantu ba Yuda; Bonna ababawambye babanywezezza, bagaanye okubata.
34 Redeemer their - [is] strong [is] Yahweh of hosts name his certainly he will conduct case their so as to give rest to the earth and to cause disquiet to [the] inhabitants of Babylon.
Omununuzi waabwe w’amaanyi, Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye lye linnya lye. Alirwanirira ensonga zaabwe awatali kubuusabuusa, alyoke aleete emirembe mu nsi yaabwe; wabula alireeta okutabukatabuka mu bantu ba Babulooni.
35 A sword on [the] Chaldeans [the] utterance of Yahweh and against [the] inhabitants of Babylon and against officials its and against wise [people] its.
“Ekitala kyolekedde Abakaludaaya,” bw’ayogera Mukama, “n’eri abo ababeera mu Babulooni, n’abakungu baabwe n’abasajja baabwe abajjudde amagezi!
36 A sword against the empty talkers and they will become fools a sword against warriors its and they will be shattered.
Ekitala kyolekedde bannabbi baabwe ab’obulimba! Balifuuka balisiriwala, ekitala kyolekedde abalwanyi baabwe. Balijjula entiisa.
37 A sword against horses its and against chariotry its and against every foreigner who [is] in [the] midst of it and they will become women a sword against treasuries its and they will be plundered.
Ekitala kyolekedde embalaasi ze n’amagaali n’abagwira bonna abamubeeramu! Balifuuka banafu ng’abakazi. Ekitala kyolekedde eby’obugagga bwe! Birinyagibwa!
38 A drought against waters its and they will dry up for [is] a land of idols it and in terrors they will act like mad people.
Ekyeya kyolekedde amazzi gaamu! Galikalira. Kubanga ggwanga erisinza ebifaananyi, ebifaananyi ebirigwa eddalu olw’entiisa.
39 Therefore they will dwell desert-dwellers with hyenas and they will dwell in it daughters of an ostrich and not it will remain again to perpetuity and not it will settle until a generation and a generation.
“Noolwekyo ensolo z’omu nsiko ziribeera eyo n’empisi, era eyo ekiwuugulu nakyo gye kiribeera. Ekibuga ekyo tekiriddamu kubeeramu bantu wadde kutuulwamu bantu emirembe gyonna.
40 Like [the] overthrow of God Sodom and Gomorrah and neighbors its [the] utterance of Yahweh not he will dwell there anyone and not he will sojourn in it a child of humankind.
Katonda nga bwe yazikiriza Sodomu ne Ggomola n’ebibuga ebiriraanyeewo,” bw’ayogera Mukama, “bw’atyo bw’alikikola ne mutaba muntu n’omu alikibeeramu; tewaliba n’omu alikisigalamu.
41 There! a people [is] about to come from [the] north and a nation great and kings many they will be roused from [the] remotest parts of [the] earth.
“Laba, eggye liva mu bukiikakkono; ensi ey’amaanyi ne bakabaka bangi, bakuŋŋaana okuva ku nkomerero y’ensi.
42 Bow and javelin they will take hold of [will be] cruel they and not they will have mercy sound their [will be] like the sea [which] it roars and on horses they will ride arranged like a man for battle on you O daughter of Babylon.
Balina obusaale n’amafumu, bakambwe si ba kisa. Beebagadde embalaasi zaabwe ne baba ng’amayengo agawuluguma mu nnyanja; bali ng’abasajja abalwanyi abajjira mu nnyiriri z’entalo okukulumba, ggwe Muwala wa Babulooni.
43 He heard [the] king of Babylon report their and they hung limp hands his distress it took hold of him anguish like [woman] giving birth.
Kabaka w’e Babulooni afunye amawulire agabafaako, n’emikono gye girebedde. Entiisa emugwiridde, ng’omukazi alumwa okuzaala.
44 There! like a lion [which] it goes up from [the] thicket[s] of the Jordan to pastureland of an ever-flowing [stream] for I will act in a moment (I will cause to run them *Q(K)*) from on it and whoever [is] chosen to it I will appoint for who? [is] like me and who? will he summon me and who? this [is] a shepherd who he will stand before me.
Ng’empologoma eva mu kibira kya Yoludaani okugenda mu ddundiro eggimu, Babulooni ndimugoba mu nsi ye awatali kutemya kikowe. Ani oyo omulonde gwe nnaawa okukola kino? Ani ali nga nze, era ani ayinza okunsomooza? Era musumba ki ayinza okuyimirirawo okumpakanya?”
45 Therefore hear [the] plan of Yahweh which he has planned against Babylon and purposes his which he has purposed against [the] land of [the] Chaldeans if not people will drag away them [the] young [ones] of the flock if not he will devastate on them [the] pastureland.
Noolwekyo, wulira Mukama ky’ategekedde Babulooni, ky’ategese okuleeta ku nsi y’Abakaludaaya. Obwana bw’ebisibo byabwe bulitwalibwa, alizikiririza ddala ebisibo byabwe ng’abalanga obujeemu bwabwe.
46 From [the] sound it has been captured Babylon it will quake the earth and a cry of distress among the nations it will be heard.
Olw’oluyoogaano lw’okuwambibwa kwa Babulooni, ensi erikankana; okukaaba kwe kuliwulirwa mu mawanga.
