< Jeremiah 4 >
1 Israel, if thou turnest ayen, seith the Lord, turne thou to me; if thou takist awei thin offendyngis fro my face, thou schalt not be mouyd.
“Bw’oba odda, ggwe Isirayiri,” bw’ayogera Mukama, “eri nze gy’olina okudda. Bw’oneggyako eby’omuzizo byonna n’otosagaasagana,
2 And thou schalt swere, The Lord lyueth, in treuthe and in doom and in riytfulnesse; and alle folkis schulen blesse hym, and schulen preise hym.
era singa olayira mu mazima, mu bwenkanya era mu ngeri entuufu yennyini nti, ‘Ddala nga Mukama bw’ali omulamu,’ olwo amawanga gonna mu ye mwe gajja okuweerwa omukisa era mu ye mwe ganeenyumiririzanga.”
3 For the Lord God seith these thingis to a man of Juda and to a dwellere of Jerusalem, Make ye newe to you a lond tilid of the newe, and nyle ye sowe on thornes.
Kubanga bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama eri abantu ba Yuda era n’eri abantu b’omu Yerusaalemi nti, “Mulime ennimiro zammwe ezitali nnime, temusiga mu maggwa.
4 Men of Juda, and dwelleris of Jerusalem, be ye circumcidid to the Lord, and do ye awey the filthis of youre hertis; lest perauenture myn indignacioun go out as fier, and be kyndlid, and noon be that quenche, for the malice of youre thouytis.
Mukoowoole Mukama, mweweeyo mutukuze emitima gyammwe mwe abantu ba Yuda ne Yerusaalemi, obusungu bwange buleme okubuubuuka ng’omuliro, olw’ebikolwa byammwe ebibi, ne wataba ayinza kubuzikiza.”
5 Telle ye in Juda, and make ye herd in Jerusalem; speke ye, and synge ye with a trumpe in the lond; crye ye strongli, and seie ye, Be ye gaderid togidere, and entre we in to stronge citees.
“Kirangirire mu Yuda era okitegeeze mu Yerusaalemi ogambe nti, ‘Mufuuwe ekkondeere mu nsi yonna! Mulangirire nga mugamba nti, Mukuŋŋaane, tuddukire mu bibuga ebiriko ebigo!’
6 Reise ye a signe in Sion, coumforte ye, and nyle ye stonde; for Y bringe yuel fro the north, and a greet sorewe.
Weereza obubaka eri Sayuuni nti, Mudduke temulwa, kubanga ndireeta okuzikiriza okuva mu bukiikakkono, okuzikiriza okw’amaanyi.”
7 A lioun schal `rise vp fro his denne, and the robbere of folkis schal reise hym silf. He is goon out of his place, to sette thi lond in to wildirnesse; thi citees schulen be distried, abidynge stille with out dwellere.
Empologoma evudde mu kisaka kyayo, omuzikiriza w’amawanga afulumye gy’abeera, azze okumalawo ensi yo. Ebibuga byammwe bijja kuzikirizibwa bibuleko abibeeramu.
8 On this thing girde you with heiris; weile ye, and yelle, for the wraththe of the strong veniaunce of the Lord is not turned awei fro you.
Noolwekyo mwambale ebibukutu mukungubage, mukube ebiwoobe kubanga obusungu bwa Mukama obw’amaanyi tebutuvuddeeko.
9 And it schal be, in that dai, seith the Lord, the herte of the king schal perische, and the herte of princis; and the prestis schulen wondre, and the prophetis schulen be astonyed.
Mukama n’agamba nti, “Ku lunaku olwo, kabaka n’omukungu baliggwaamu omwoyo, bakabona basamaalirire ne bannabbi beewuunye.”
10 And Y seide, Alas! alas! alas! Lord God; therfor whether thou hast disseyued this puple and Jerusalem, seiynge, Pees schal be to you, and lo! a swerd is comun `til to the soule?
Ne ndyoka ŋŋamba nti, “Woowe Mukama Katonda, mazima olimbidde ddala abantu bano ne Yerusaalemi ng’ogamba nti, ‘Mulibeera n’emirembe,’ ate nga ekitala kiri ddala ku mimiro gyaffe.”
11 In that tyme it schal be seide to this puple and to Jerusalem, A brennynge wynd in the weies that ben in desert, ben the weies of the douytir of my puple, not to wyndewe, and not to purge.
Mu biseera ebyo abantu bano ne Yerusaalemi balibuulirwa nti, “Embuyaga ezookya eziva ku nsozi ezaakala ez’omu ddungu zifuuwa abantu bange nga teziwujja buwuzzi wadde okulongoosa obulongoosa
12 A spirit ful of hem schal come to me; and now Y, but Y schal speke my domes with hem.
embuyaga ezisingako awo ze ziriva gye ndi. Era kaakano mbasalira emisango.”
13 Lo! he schal stie as a cloude, and hise charis as a tempest; hise horsis ben swifter than eglis; wo to vs, for we ben distried.
Laba ajja ng’ebire, amagaali ge ng’empewo y’akazimu, embalaasi ze zidduka okusinga empungu; zitusanze ffe kubanga tuzikiridde!
14 Thou Jerusalem, waische thin herte fro malice, that thou be maad saaf. Hou long schulen noiful thouytis dwelle in thee?
Ayi Yerusaalemi, naaza omutima gwo guve mu kukola ebibi olyoke olokolebwe. Olikomya ddi ebirowoozo ebibi?
15 For whi the vois of a tellere fro Dan, and makynge knowun an idol fro the hil of Effraym.
Eddoboozi lyawulirwa okuva mu Ddaani, nga lirangirira okuzikirizibwa okuva mu nsozi za Efulayimu.
16 Reise, ye folkis; lo! it is herd in Jerusalem that keperis ben comun fro a fer lond, and yyuen her vois on the citees of Juda.
“Labula amawanga nti ajja: kirangirirwe mu Yerusaalemi nti, ‘Abalabe bajja okuva mu nsi ey’ewala nga bayimba ennyimba ez’entalo nga balumba ebibuga bya Yuda.
17 As the keperis of feeldis thei ben maad on it in cumpas; for it stiride me to wrathfulnesse, seith the Lord.
Bakyetoolodde ng’abasajja abakuuma ennimiro kubanga Yuda yanjeemera,’” bw’ayogera Mukama.
18 Thi weyes and thi thouytis han maad this to thee; this malice of thee, for it is bittir, for it touchide thin herte.
“Empisa zammwe, n’ebikolwa byammwe bye bibaleeseeko bino. Kino kye kibonerezo kyammwe. Nga kya bulumi! Nga kifumita omutima.”
19 Mi wombe akith, my wombe akith; the wittis of myn herte ben disturblid in me. Y schal not be stille, for my soule herde the vois of a trumpe, the cry of batel.
Obulumi, Ayi Obulumi! Neenyoolera mu bulumi! Ayi obulumi bw’omutima gwange! Omutima gunkubagana munda, sisobola kusirika, kubanga mpulidde eddoboozi ly’ekkondeere, mpulidde enduulu z’olutalo.
20 Sorewe is clepid on sorewe, and al the lond is distried; my tabernaclis ben wastid sudeynli, my skynnes ben wastid sudeynli.
Okuzikirizibwa kweyongeddeko era ensi yonna eyonooneddwa. Eweema zange zisaanyiziddwawo mu kaseera buseera, n’entimbe zange nga kutemya kikowe.
21 Hou longe schal Y se hem that fleen, schal Y here the vois of a clarioun?
Ndituusa ddi nga ndaba bbendera z’olutalo n’okuwulira amaloboozi g’amakondeere?
22 For my fonned puple knew not me; thei ben vnwise sones, and cowardis; thei ben wise to do yuels, but thei kouden not do wel.
“Kubanga abantu bange basirusiru, tebammanyi. Baana abatalina magezi; abatategeera. Bakagezimunnyu mu kukola ebibi, tebamanyi kukola birungi.”
23 Y bihelde the lond, and lo! it was void, and nouyt; and Y bihelde heuenes, and no liyt was in tho.
Natunuulira ensi, nga njereere, ate ne ntunula ne ku ggulu, ng’ekitangaala kigenze.
24 Y siy munteyns, and lo! tho weren mouyd, and all litle hillis weren disturblid.
Natunuulira agasozi nga gajugumira, n’ensozi zonna zaali ziyuuguuma.
25 Y lokide, and no man was, and ech brid of heuene was gon a wey.
Natunula, era laba, waali tewasigadde muntu n’omu, era n’ebinyonyi byonna eby’omu bbanga byali bidduse.
26 Y bihelde, and lo! Carmele is forsakun, and alle citees therof ben distried fro the face of the Lord, and fro the face of the ire of his strong veniaunce.
Natunula, era laba, ensi ey’ebibala ebingi ng’efuuse ddungu, era n’ebibuga byayo byonna nga byonoonese, mu maaso ga Mukama, olw’obusungu bwe obungi.
27 For the Lord seith these thingis, Al the lond schal be forsakun, but netheles Y schal not make an endyng.
Kubanga bw’atyo bw’ayogera Mukama nti, “Ensi yonna eriyonoonebwa, wadde nga sirigizikiririza ddala.
28 The erthe schal mourne, and heuenys aboue schulen make sorewe, for that Y spak; Y thouyte, and it repentide not me, nether Y am turned awei fro it.
Noolwekyo ensi erikungubaga era n’eggulu waggulu lirikwata ekizikiza, kubanga njogedde era maliridde sijja kwejjusa wadde okukyusaamu.”
29 Ech citee fledde fro the vois of a knyyt, and of a man schetynge an arowe; thei entriden in to hard places, and stieden in to roochis of stoon; alle citees ben forsakun, and no man dwellith in tho.
Olw’okuyoogona kw’abeebagazi b’embalaasi n’abalasa obusaale, ebibuga byonna biribuna emiwabo, abamu beesogge ebisaka; n’abalala balinnye waggulu ku njazi. Ebibuga byonna birekeddwa ttayo; tewali abibeeramu.
30 But what schalt thou `destried do? Whanne thou schalt clothe thee with reed scarlet, whanne thou schalt be ourned with a goldun broche, and schalt anoynte thin iyen with wommans oynement, thou schalt be araied in veyn; thi louyeris han dispisid thee, thei schulen seke thi soule.
Okola ki ggwe, ggwe eyayonoonebwa? Lwaki oyambala engoye entwakaavu, ne weeteekako eby’obugagga ebya zaabu, n’amaaso n’ogasiiga langi? Omala biseera nga weeyonja. Baganzi bo bakunyoomoola; era baagala kukutta.
31 For Y herd a vois as of a womman trauelynge of child, the angwischis as of a womman childynge; the vois of the douyter of Sion among hem that dien, and spreden abrood her hondis; Wo to me, for my soule failide for hem that ben slayn.
Mpulira okukaaba ng’okw’omukazi alumwa okuzaala, okusinda ng’okw’oyo asindika omwana we asooka, okukaaba kw’omuwala wa Sayuuni ng’awejjawejja anoonya w’anassiza omukka, ng’agolola emikono gye ng’agamba nti, “Zinsanze nze, nzirika. Obulamu bwange buweereddwayo mu batemu.”
