Obadiah 1
1 [the] vision of Obadiah thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh of Edom a report we have heard from with Yahweh and an envoy among the nations he has been sent arise so let us arise on it for battle.
Kuno kwe kwolesebwa kwa Obadiya. Mukama Ayinzabyonna kwe yamuwa ku bikwata ku nsi ya Edomu. Tuwulidde obubaka obuva eri Katonda, Katonda yaweereza omubaka eri amawanga n’obubaka buno nti, “Mugolokoke tulumbe Edomu tumulwanyise.”
2 Here! small I will make you among the nations [will be] despised you exceedingly.
“Laba, ndibafuula aba wansi ennyo mu mawanga, era olinyoomererwa ddala.
3 [the] presumption of Heart your it has deceived you O dweller in clefts of rock [the] height of dwelling his [who] says in heart his who? will he bring down me [the] ground.
Mwelimbye n’amalala agali mu mitima gyammwe, mmwe abasula mu mpuku ez’omu njazi, era ne muzimba amaka gammwe waggulu ku njazi. Mmwe aboogera nti, ‘Ani alituwanulayo n’atussa wansi?’
4 If you will make high like eagle and if between [the] stars [will be] set nest your from there I will bring down you [the] utterance of Yahweh.
Wadde nga mwewanika waggulu ng’empungu era ne muzimba ebisu byammwe wakati w’emmunyeenye, ndibawanulayo ne mbasuula wansi,” bw’ayogera Mukama.
5 If thieves they came to you if destroyers of night how! you will be destroyed ¿ not will they steal sufficiency their if grape gatherers they came to you ¿ not will they leave gleanings.
“Singa ababbi babajjira, n’abanyazi ne babalumba ekiro, akabi nga kaba kabatuuseeko. Tebandibabbyeko byonna bye baagala? Oba singa abanozi b’emizabbibu bakujjiridde, tebandireseeko obuzabbibu butono nnyo?
6 How! they will be plundered Esau they will be searched out hidden treasures its.
Esawu alinyagulurwa, eby’obugagga bye ebikusike birinyagibwa.
7 To the border they will send away you all [the] men of covenant your they will deceive you they will prevail to you [the] men of peace your food your they will set a trap under you there not [is] understanding in him.
Abaalagaana naawe balikusindiikiriza ku nsalo, Mikwano gyo balikulimbalimba ne bakuwangula; abo abalya emmere yo balikutega omutego, balikutega omutego kyokka toliguvumbula.
8 ¿ Not on the day that ([the] utterance of *L(abh)*) Yahweh and I will destroy wise [people] from Edom and understanding from [the] mountain of Esau.
“Ku lunaku olwo, sirizikiriza bagezi b’e Edomu, abantu ab’amagezi ababeera mu nsozi za Esawu?” bw’ayogera Mukama.
9 And they will be dismayed warriors your O Teman so that he may be cut off everyone from [the] mountain of Esau from slaughter.
“Abalwanyi bo abazira ggwe, Temani, balitya, era na buli muntu mu nsozi za Esawu alittibwa.
10 From [the] violence of brother your Jacob it will cover you shame and you will be cut off for ever.
Olw’ebikolwa eby’obukambwe ebyo bye wakola muganda wo Yakobo, oliswazibwa. Olizikirizibwa n’otaddayo kuwulirwa.
11 On [the] day standing you from before on [the] day took captive strangers wealth his and foreigners they came (gates his *Q(K)*) and on Jerusalem they cast a lot also you [were] like one from them.
Ku lunaku lwe wayimirira ku bbali n’otofaayo, nga banyaga obugagga bwa Isirayiri, ne bannaggwanga ne bayingira mu miryango gye, ne bakuba obululu okulaba atwala Yerusaalemi, wali omu ku bo.
12 And may not you look on [the] day of brother your on [the] day of misfortune his and may not you rejoice to [the] people of Judah on [the] day perish they and may not you make big mouth your on [the] day of trouble.
Tosaanye kusekerera muganda wo mu biseera bye eby’okulaba ennaku, wadde okusanyuka ku lunaku olw’okuzikirira kw’abantu ba Yuda, newaakubadde okwewaana ennyo ku lunaku lwe baatawaanyizibwa ennyo.
13 May not you go in [the] gate of people my on [the] day of disaster their may not you look also you on calamity his on [the] day of disaster his and may not you stretch out on wealth his on [the] day of disaster his.
Temukumba nga muyita mu miryango gy’abantu bange ku lunaku kwe baalabira obuyinike, wadde okubasekerera ku lunaku kwe baabonaabonera, newaakubadde okutwala obugagga bwabwe ku lunaku lwe baatuukibwako akabi.
14 And may not you stand at the parting of ways to cut off fugitives his and may not you deliver up survivors his on [the] day of trouble.
Temulindira mu masaŋŋanzira okutta abo abadduka, wadde okuwaayo abawonyeewo mu biro eby’okulabiramu ennaku.
15 For [is] near [the] day of Yahweh on all the nations just as you have done it will be done to you recompense your it will return on own head your.
“Olunaku luli kumpi kwe ndisalira amawanga gonna omusango. Nga bwe mwakola abalala, nammwe bwe mulikolebwa. Ebikolwa byammwe biribaddira.
16 For just as you have drunk on [the] mountain of holiness my they will drink all the nations continually and they will drink and they will swallow and they will be like not they had been.
Ng’abantu bange bwe baanywa ekikompe eky’ekibonerezo ku lusozi lwange olutukuvu n’amawanga ageetooloddewo bwe galikinywa obutakoma; balikinywa, babe ng’abataganywangako.
17 And on [the] mountain of Zion it will be deliverance and it will be a holy place and they will take possession of [the] house Jacob possessions their.
Naye ku Lusozi Sayuuni baliwona, kubanga lutukuvu, n’ennyumba ya Yakobo eritwala omugabo gwabwe.
18 And it will be [the] house of Jacob a fire and [the] house of Joseph [will be] a flame and [the] house of Esau [will become] stubble and they will burn them and they will consume them and not he will belong a survivor to [the] house of Esau for Yahweh he has spoken.
Ennyumba ya Yakobo eriba omuliro, n’ennyumba ya Yusufu olulimi olw’omuliro. Ennyumba ya Esawu eriba bisusunku, era baligyokya n’eggwaawo. Tewaliba muntu wa nnyumba ya Esawu n’omu alisigalawo, kubanga Mukama akyogedde.
19 And they will take possession of the Negev [the] mountain of Esau and the Shephelah Philistines and they will take possession of [the] region of Ephraim and [the] region of Samaria and Benjamin Gilead.
“Abantu b’e Negebu balitwala olusozi Esawu, n’abantu ab’omu biwonvu balitwala ensi y’Abafirisuuti. Balyetwalira n’ennimiro ez’omu Efulayimu ne Samaliya, ne Benyamini ne yeetwalira Gireyaadi.
20 And [the] exile[s] of the fortress this of [the] people of Israel who [will be] Canaanites to Zarephath and [the] exile[s] of Jerusalem who [are] in Sepharad they will take possession of [the] cities of the Negev.
Ekibiina ky’Abayisirayiri abaali mu buwaŋŋanguse e Kanani, balyetwalira ensi, okutuukira ddala ku Zalefaasi; abawaŋŋanguse abaava mu Yerusaalemi abali mu Sefalaadi, balyetwalira ebibuga mu Negebu.
21 And they will go up deliverers on [the] mountain of Zion to rule [the] mountain of Esau and it will belong to Yahweh the kingship.
Abanunuzi balyambuka ku Lusozi Sayuuni, okufuga ensozi za Esawu. Obwakabaka buliba bwa Mukama.”
