< Deuteronomy 26 >
1 And it shall be, when thou hast come in to the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee [for] an inheritance, and possessest it, and dwellest therein;
Awo olulituuka bw’omalanga okuyingira mu nsi, Mukama Katonda wo gy’akuwa okubeera obusika bwo obw’enkalakkalira, ng’omaze okugyefunira era ng’otebenkedde bulungi,
2 That thou shalt take of the first of all the fruit of the earth, which thou shalt bring of thy land that the LORD thy God giveth thee, and shalt put [it] in a basket, and shalt go to the place which the LORD thy God shall choose to place his name there.
oddiranga ebimu ku bibala ebibereberye by’oliggya mu makungula agalisooka okuva mu ttaka ery’oku nsi Mukama Katonda wo gy’akuwa, n’obiteeka mu kibbo. Kale nno obireetanga mu kifo Mukama Katonda wo kye yeerondera okubeerangamu Erinnya lye.
3 And thou shalt go to the priest that shall be in those days, and say to him, I profess this day to the LORD thy God, that I have come to the country which the Lord swore to our fathers to give us.
Ogambanga kabona alibeera mu kisanja mu kiseera ekyo nti, “Njatula leero eri Mukama Katonda wo nti ntuuse mu nsi Mukama gye yalayirira bajjajjaffe okugituwa.”
4 And the priest shall take the basket from thy hand, and set it down before the altar of the LORD thy God.
Kabona aliggya ekibbo mu mikono gyo n’akitereeza mu maaso g’ekyoto kya Mukama Katonda wo.
5 And thou shalt speak and say before the LORD thy God, A Syrian ready to perish [was] my father, and he went down to Egypt, and sojourned there with a few, and became there a nation, great, mighty, and populous:
Kale nno oliyatula mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda wo nti, “Jjajjaffe yali mutambuze Omusuuli, n’aserengeta mu Misiri n’abantu be yali nabo abatono, ne babeera eyo, ne bafuukamu eggwanga ekkulu ery’amaanyi era nga lirimu abantu bangi nnyo.
6 And the Egyptians ill-treated us, and afflicted us, and laid upon us hard bondage:
Naye Abamisiri ne batuyisa bubi, ne batubonyaabonya, nga batukozesa emirimu emikakanyavu.
7 And when we cried to the LORD God of our fathers, the LORD heard our voice, and looked on our affliction, and our labor, and our oppression:
Bwe tutyo ne tukaabirira Mukama, Katonda wa bajjajjaffe; Katonda n’awulira eddoboozi lyaffe, n’alaba okubonaabona kwaffe, n’okutegana kwaffe, n’okunyigirizibwa kwaffe kwonna.
8 And the LORD brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand, and with an out-stretched arm, and with great terribleness, and with signs, and with wonders;
Bw’atyo Mukama n’atuggya mu Misiri n’omukono gwe ogw’amaanyi gwe yagolola, n’obuyinza bwe obw’entiisa, n’obubonero, n’ebyamagero eby’ekitalo.
9 And he hath brought us into this place, and hath given us this land, [even] a land that floweth with milk and honey.
Yatuleeta mu kifo kino n’atuwa ensi eno, ensi omukulukutira amata n’omubisi gw’enjuki.
10 And now, behold, I have brought the first-fruits of the land, which thou, O LORD, hast given me: and thou shalt set it before the LORD thy God, and worship before the LORD thy God:
Bwe ntyo ndeese gy’oli ebibala ebibereberye ebiva mu ttaka ery’omu nsi gy’ompadde, Ayi Mukama.” Olibiteeka mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda wo n’ovuunama mu maaso ge.
11 And thou shalt rejoice in every good [thing] which the LORD thy God hath given to thee, and to thy house, thou, and the Levite, and the stranger that [is] among you.
Kale nno, ggwe awamu n’Abaleevi, ne bannamawanga abanaabeeranga mu mmwe, onoojaguzanga ng’osanyukira ebirungi byonna, Mukama Katonda wo by’anaabanga akuwadde ggwe n’amaka go gonna.
12 When thou hast made an end of tithing all the tithes of thy increase the third year, [which is] the year of tithing, and hast given [it] to the Levite, the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, that they may eat within thy gates, and be filled:
Mu mwaka ogwokusatu bw’onoomalanga okuggyako ku makungula go ekitundu eky’ekkumi n’okissa wabbali, kubanga ogwo gwe mwaka ogw’ekitundu eky’ekkumi, onoddiranga ekitundu ekyo n’okiwa Abaleevi, ne bannamawanga, ne bamulekwa, ne bannamwandu, ne baliiranga mu bibuga byo ne bakkuta.
13 Then thou shalt say before the LORD thy God, I have brought away the hallowed things out of [my] house, and also have given them to the Levite, and to the stranger, to the fatherless, and to the widow, according to all thy commandments which thou hast commanded me: I have not transgressed thy commandments, neither have I forgotten [them]:
Awo onooyogeranga mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda wo nti, “Ekitundu ekimu eky’ekkumi ekyatukuzibwa nkiggyayo mu maka gange ne nkigabira Abaleevi, ne bannamawanga, ne bamulekwa, ne bannamwandu, nga byonna bye wandagira bwe biri. Sikyamyeko kuva ku biragiro byo newaakubadde okwerabira n’ekimu ku byo.
14 I have not eaten of it in my mourning, neither have I taken away [aught] of it for [any] unclean [use], nor given [aught] of it for the dead: [but] I have hearkened to the voice of the LORD my God, [and] have done according to all that thou hast commanded me.
Ekitundu ekyo sikiriddeeko nga ndi mu biseera eby’okukungubaga, wadde okukikwatako nga siri mulongoofu, era sikitoddeeko ne mpaayo eri abafu. Ŋŋondedde Mukama Katonda wange, ne nkola nga bwe yandagira.
15 Look down from thy holy habitation, from heaven, and bless thy people Israel, and the land which thou hast given us, as thou didst swear to our fathers, a land that floweth with milk and honey.
Otutunuulire ng’osinziira mu kifo kyo ekitukuvu gy’obeera mu ggulu, otuyiweko omukisa gwo ffe abantu bo Abayisirayiri n’ensi gy’otuwadde nga bwe walayirira bajjajjaffe, nga y’ensi omukulukuta amata n’omubisi gw’enjuki.”
16 This day the LORD thy God hath commanded thee to perform these statutes and judgments: thou shalt therefore keep and do them with all thy heart, and with all thy soul.
Mukama Katonda wo akulagira leero okugonderanga amateeka ago gonna n’ebiragiro ebyo; noolwekyo obigonderanga byonna n’omutima gwo gwonna n’emmeeme yo yonna.
17 Thou hast avouched the LORD this day to be thy God, and to walk in his ways, and to keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his judgments, and to hearken to his voice:
Ku lunaku lwa leero oyatudde nga Mukama bw’ali Katonda wo, era nga naawe bw’onootambuliranga mu makubo ge, era ng’onookuumanga ebiragiro bye n’amateeka ge gonna, era ng’onoomugonderanga.
18 And the LORD hath avouched thee this day to be his peculiar people, as he hath promised thee, and that [thou] shouldst keep all his commandments;
Ku lunaku lwa leero Mukama alangiridde nga bw’oli owuwe, eggwanga lye ku bubwe ery’omuwendo omungi nga bwe yasuubiza, era nga ojjanga kukwatanga ebiragiro bye byonna.
19 And to make thee high above all nations which he hath made, in praise, and in name, and in honor; and that thou mayest be a holy people to the LORD thy God, as he hath spoken.
Alangiridde nga bw’anaakujjuzanga ettendo n’okwatiikirira n’ekitiibwa okusukkirira amawanga gonna ge yatonda, era ng’olibeera eggwanga ettukuvu eri Mukama Katonda wo, nga bwe yasuubiza.
