< Isaiah 17 >

1 The birthun of Damask. Lo! Damask schal faile to be a citee, and it schal be as an heep of stoonys in fallyng.
“Laba Ddamasiko tekikyali kibuga, kifuuse matongo.
2 The forsakun citees of Aroer schulen be to flockis; and tho schulen reste there, and noon schal be that schal make aferd.
Ebibuga bya Aloweri babidduseemu: birirekerwa ensolo mwe zinaagalamiranga nga tewali azikanga.
3 And help schal ceesse fro Effraym, and a rewme fro Damask; and the relifs of Sirie schulen be as the glorie of the sones of Israel, seith the Lord of oostis.
Ekigo eky’amaanyi kirisaanyizibwawo mu Efulayimu, n’obwakabaka mu Ddamasiko bulimalibwawo; naye abalisigalawo mu Busuuli, baliba n’ekitiibwa ng’eky’abaana ba Isirayiri,” bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye.
4 And it schal be, in that dai the glorie of Jacob schal be maad thinne, and the fatnesse of his fleisch shal fade.
“Awo olulituuka ku lunaku luli, ekitiibwa kya Yakobo kirikendeera; era akoggere ddala.
5 And it schal be as gaderyng togidere that that is left in heruest, and his arm schal gadere eeris of corn, and it schal be as sekynge eeris of corn in the valei of Raphaym.
Ne kiba ng’omukunguzi bw’akuŋŋaanya eŋŋaano, n’omukono gwe ne gukungula empeke; weewaawo kiriba ng’omuntu bw’alonda ebinywa by’eŋŋaano mu Kiwonvu kya Lefayimu.
6 And there schal be left in it as a rasyn, and as the schakyng doun of the fruyt of olyue tre, as of tweyne ether of thre olyue trees in the hiynesse of a braunche, ether of foure ether of fyue; in the cooppis therof schal be the fruyt therof, seith the Lord God of Israel.
Naye mulisigalamu ebinywa ebirondererwa ng’omuzeyituuni bwe gubeera nga gukubiddwa, ne guleka ebibala bibiri oba bisatu waggulu ku busongezo, bina oba bitaano ku busongezo bw’omuti omugimu,” bw’ayogera Mukama, Katonda wa Isirayiri.
7 In that dai a man schal be bowid to his maker, and hise iyen schulen biholde to the hooli of Israel.
Ku lunaku luli abantu balirowooza ku Mutonzi waabwe, n’amaaso gaabwe galikyukira Omutukuvu wa Isirayiri.
8 And he schal not be bowid to the auteris, whiche hise hondis maden, and whiche hise fyngris wrouyten; he schal not biholde wodis, and templis of idols.
So tebalirowooza ku byoto bya balubaale baabwe, emirimu gy’emikono gyabwe, be beekolera, oba empagi za katonda wa Baasera oba ebyoto kwe bootereza obubaane.
9 In that dai the citees of strengthe therof schulen be forsakun as plowis, and cornes that weren forsakun of the face of the sones of Israel; and thou schalt be forsakun.
Mu biro ebyo ebibuga byabwe eby’amaanyi Abayisirayiri bye baabalesa, biriba ng’ebifo ebyameramu ebisaka ne kalandalugo. Byonna birisigala matongo.
10 For thou hast foryete God, thi sauyour, and haddist not mynde on thi stronge helpere; therfor thou schalt plaunte a feithful plauntyng, and thou schalt sowe an alien seed.
Weerabidde Katonda Omulokozi wo, so tojjukidde Lwazi lwa maanyi go; kyova osimbamu ebisimbe eby’okukusanyusa n’osigamu omuzabbibu oguvudde ebweru.
11 In the dai of thi plauntyng schal be a wielde vyne, and erli thi seed schal floure; ripe corne is takun awei in the dai of eritage, and Israel schal make sorewe greuousli.
Wadde obisimba bulungi nnyo ne bimera ku lunaku lw’obisimbye, era ne bimerusa ensigo ku makya kwennyini kwe bisimbiddwa, tolibaako ky’okungula wabula obulumi obutawonyezeka n’ennaku ey’ekitalo.
12 Wo to the multitude of many puplis, as the multitude of the see sownynge, and the noise of cumpenyes as the sown of many watris.
Woowe oluyoogaano olw’amawanga amangi, bawuluguma ng’okuwuluguma kw’ennyanja esiikuuse! Okuwuluguma kw’abantu, bawuluguma ng’amazzi agayiika n’amaanyi amangi!
13 Puplis schulen sowne as the sown of flowynge watris, and God schal blame hym; and he schal fle fer, and he schal be rauyschid as the dust of hillis fro the face of the wynd, and as a whirlewynd bifor tempest.
Wadde amawanga galiwuuma n’okuwulikika ne gawulikika ng’amazzi agayiika n’amaanyi amangi, Mukama bw’aligagoba, galibulawo mbagirawo. Galiba ng’ebisusunku bwe bitwalibwa empewo; era ng’enfuufu ekunta nga yeetooloola, enkuba ng’eneetera okutonnya.
14 In the time of euentide, and lo! disturbling; in the morewtid, and he schal not abide. This is the part of hem that destrieden vs, and the part of hem that rauyschiden vs.
Entiisa ey’amaanyi eribagwako akawungeezi. Buliba tebunnakya ng’abalabe bonna tewakyali. Guno gwe mugabo gw’abo abatunyaga, era y’empeera y’abo abatunyagako ebyaffe.
