< Jeremiah 51 >
1 The Lord seith these thingis, Lo! Y schal reise on Babiloyne, and on the dwelleris therof, that reisiden her herte ayens me, as a wynd of pestilence.
Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti, “Laba, ndiyimusa omwoyo gw’omuzikiriza alumbe Babulooni n’abantu ba Lebukamaayi.
2 And Y schal sende in to Babiloyne wyndeweris, and thei schulen wyndewe it, and thei schulen destrie the lond of it; for thei camen on it on ech side, in the dai of the turment therof.
Ndituma abagwira e Babulooni bamuwewe era bazikirize ensi ye; balimulumba ku buli luuyi ku lunaku olw’okuzikirira kwe.
3 He that beendith his bowe, beende not, and a man clothid in haburioun, stie not; nyle ye spare the yonge men therof, sle ye al the chyualrie therof.
Omulasi talikuba busaale bwe, taliyambala wadde ebyambalo bye ebyokulwanyisa. Temusonyiwa batabani be; muzikiririze ddala amaggye ge.
4 And slayn men schulen falle in the lond of Caldeis, and woundid men in the cuntreis therof.
Baligwa nga battiddwa e Babulooni, nga batuusiddwako ebiwundu eby’amaanyi mu nguudo ze.
5 For whi Israel and Juda was not maad widewe fro her God, the Lord of oostis; but the lond of hem was fillid with trespas of the hooli of Israel.
Kubanga Yuda ne Isirayiri tebinnalekebwa Katonda waabwe, oyo Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye, wadde ng’ensi yaabwe esingiddwa omusango mu maaso g’Omutukuvu wa Isirayiri.
6 Fle ye fro the myddis of Babiloyne, that ech man saue his soule; nyle ye be stille on the wickidnesse therof, for whi tyme of veniaunce therof is to the Lord; he schal yelde while to it.
“Mudduke Babulooni. Mudduke okuwonya obulamu bwammwe. Temusaanawo olw’ebibi bye. Kiseera kya Mukama okwesasuza; alimusasula ekyo ekimusaanira.
7 Babiloyne is a goldun cuppe in the hond of the Lord, and fillith al erthe; hethene men drunken of the wyn therof, and therfor thei ben mouyd.
Babulooni yali kikompe kya zaabu mu mukono gwa Mukama; yatamiiza ensi yonna. Amawanga gaanywa wayini we, kyegavudde galaluka.
8 Babiloyne felle doun sudenli, and is al to-brokun; yelle ye on it, take ye recyn to the sorewe therof, if perauenture it be heelid.
Babulooni kirigwa mangu ago ne kimenyekamenyeka. Mukikungubagire. Munoonye eddagala olw’obulumi bw’akyo oboolyawo anaawonyezebwa.
9 We heeliden Babiloyne, and it is not maad hool; forsake we it and go we ech in to his lond; for the doom therof cam `til to heuenes, and is reisid `til to cloudis.
“‘Twandiwonyezza Babulooni, naye tayinza kuwonyezeka. Leka tumuleke buli muntu adde mu nsi ye, kubanga omusango gwe gutuuse mu bwengula, gusituse gulinnye okutuuka ku bire.’
10 The Lord hath brouyt forth oure riytfulnessis; come ye, and telle we in Sion the werk of oure Lord God.
“‘Mukama atulwaniridde, mujje tukitegeeze mu Sayuuni ekyo Mukama Katonda waffe ky’akoze.’
11 Scharpe ye arowis, fille ye arowe caasis; the Lord reiside the spirit of the kyngis of Medeis, and his mynde is ayen Babiloyne, that he leese it, for it is the veniaunce of the Lord, the veniaunce of his temple. The kyng of Medeis is reisid of the Lord ayens Babiloyne.
“Muwagale obusaale, mukwate engabo! Mukama ayungudde bakabaka ab’e Bumeedi, kubanga ekigendererwa kye kuzikiriza Babulooni. Mukama aliwalana eggwanga, aliwalana eggwanga olwa yeekaalu ye.
12 Reise ye a signe on the wallis of Babiloyne, encreesse ye kepyng, reise ye keperis, make ye redi buyschementis; for the Lord thouyte, and dide, what euer thing he spak ayens the dwelleris of Babiloyne.
Muyimuse bendera mwolekere bbugwe wa Babulooni! Mwongereko abakuumi, muteekeko abaserikale, mutegeke okulumba mbagirawo! Mukama alituukiriza ekigendererwa bye, ensala ye okwolekera abantu ba Babulooni.
13 A! thou Babiloyne, that dwellist on many watris, riche in thi tresours, thin ende cometh, the foote mesure of thi kittyng doun.
Gwe abeera okumpi n’amazzi amangi, omugagga mu bintu eby’omuwendo, enkomerero yo etuuse, ekiseera kyo eky’okuzikirizibwa kituuse.
14 The Lord of oostis swoor bi his soule, that Y schal fille thee with men, as with bruke, and a myry song schal be sungun on thee.
Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye yeerayiridde ku lulwe; ddala ndikujjuza abasajja, ng’ebibinja by’enzige, era balireekaana nga bakuwangudde.
15 The Lord swoor, which made erthe bi his strengthe, made redy the world bi his wisdom, and stretchide forth heuenes bi his prudence.
“Ensi yagikola n’amaanyi ge; yagiteekawo n’amagezi ge, n’ayanjuluza eggulu n’okutegeera kwe.
16 Whanne he yyueth vois, watris ben multiplied in heuene; which Lord reisith cloudis fro the laste of erthe, made leitis in to reyn, and brouyt forth wynd of hise tresouris.
Bw’abwatuka, amazzi ag’omu ggulu gawuluguma; ayimusa ebire okuva ku nkomerero y’ensi. Amyansisa eggulu mu nkuba era n’aggya empewo mu mawanika ge.
17 Ech man is maad a fool of kunnyng, ech wellere togidere is schent in a grauun ymage; for his wellyng togidere is fals, and a spirit is not in tho.
“Buli muntu talina magezi wadde okutegeera; Buli muweesi aswadde olw’ebifaananyi bya bakatonda by’akoze n’emikono gye. Ebifaananyi bye bya bulimba; tebirina mukka.
18 The werkis ben veyn, and worthi of scorn; tho schulen perische in the tyme of her visityng.
Tebiriiko kye bigasa, ebisaanye okunyoomebwa ebirizikirizibwa nga Mukama azze okusala omusango.
19 The part of Jacob is not as these thingis; for he that made alle thingis is the part of Jacob, and Israel is the septre of his eritage; the Lord of oostis is his name.
Oyo omugabo gwa Yakobo tali nga bano, kubanga yakola ebintu byonna, nga mwotwalidde n’eggwanga ly’omugabo gwe, n’erinnya lye ye Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye.
20 Thou hurtlist doun to me the instrumentis of batel, and Y schal hurtle doun folkis in thee, and Y schal leese rewmes in thee;
“Muli mbazzi yange, ekyokulwanyisa kyange eky’olutalo, mmwe be nkozesa okubetenta amawanga, mmwe be nkozesa okuzikiriza obwakabaka,
21 and Y schal hurtle doun in thee an hors, and the ridere therof; and Y schal hurtle doun in thee a chare, and the stiere therof;
era ggwe gwe ndikozesa okubetenta embalaasi n’omwebagazi, ggwe gwe ndikozesa okubetenta ekigaali n’omuvuzi waakyo,
22 and Y schal hurtle doun in thee a man and womman; and Y schal hurtle doun in thee an elde man and a child; and Y schal hurtle doun in thee a yong man and a virgyn;
era ggwe gwe ndikozesa okubetenta omusajja n’omukazi, era ggwe ndikozesa okubetenta omukadde n’omuvubuka, era ggwe gwe ndikozesa okubetenta omuvubuka n’omuwala omuto.
23 and Y schal hurtle doun in thee a scheepherde and his floc; and Y schal hurtle doun in thee an erthetiliere and his yok beestis; and Y schal hurtle doun in thee duykis and magistratis.
Ggwe gwe ndikozesa okubetenta omusumba n’ekisibo kye, ggwe gwe ndikozesa okubetenta omulimi n’ente ennume, ggwe gwe ndikozesa okubetenta bagavana n’abakungu.
24 And Y schal yelde, seith the Lord, to Babiloyne, and to alle the dwelleris of Caldee, al her yuel, which thei diden in Sion, bifore youre iyen.
“Ndisasula Babulooni ne bonna ababeeramu nga mulaba olw’ebibi byonna bye baakola mu Sayuuni,” bw’ayogera Mukama.
25 Lo! Y, seith the Lord, to thee, thou hil berynge pestilence, which corrumpist al erthe. Y schal stretche forth myn hond on thee, and Y schal vnwlappe thee fro stoonys, and Y schal yyue thee in to an hil of brennyng.
“Mbalinako ensonga, ggwe olusozi oluzikiriza, mmwe abazikiriza ensi yonna,” bw’ayogera Mukama. “Ndikugolererako omukono gwange, nkusuule ku mayinja g’ensozi, nkufuule olusozi olutakyayaka.
26 And Y schal not take of thee a stoon in to a corner, and a stoon in to foundementis; but thou schalt be lost with outen ende, seith the Lord.
Tewali jjinja lirikuggibwako kukola jjinja lya ku nsonda, wadde ejjinja lyonna okukola omusingi, kubanga olibeera matongo emirembe gyonna,” bw’ayogera Mukama.
27 Reise ye a signe in the lond, sowne ye with a clarioun in hillis; halewe ye folkis on it, telle ye to the kyngis of Ararath, of Menny, and of Ascheneth ayens it; noumbre ye Tapser ayens it, and bringe ye an hors, as a bruke hauynge a pricke.
“Yimusa bendera mu ggwanga! Fuuwa omulere mu mawanga! Tegeka amawanga okumulwanyisa; koowoola obwakabaka buno bumulumbe: obwa Alalati ne Mini ne Asukenaazi. Londa omuduumizi amulumba, weereza embalaasi eziri ng’ekibinja ky’enzige.
28 Halowe ye folkis ayens it, the kyngis of Medey, the duykis therof, and alle magistratis therof, and al the lond of his power.
Teekateeka amawanga okumulwanyisa; bakabaka Abameedi, bagavana baabwe era n’abakungu baabwe bonna, n’amawanga ge bafuga.
29 And the erthe schal be mouyd, and schal be disturblid; for the thouyt of the Lord schal fulli wake ayens Babiloyne, that he sette the lond of Babiloyne desert, and vnhabitable.
Ensi ekankana ne yeenyola olw’obulumi, kubanga ebigendererwa bya Mukama eri Babulooni tebikyuka, okuzikiriza ensi ya Babulooni waleme kubaawo agibeeramu.
30 The stronge men of Babiloyne ceessiden of batel, thei dwelliden in stronge holdis; the strengthe of hem is deuourid, and thei ben maad as wymmen; the tabernaclis therof ben brent, the barris therof ben al to-brokun.
Abalwanyi ba Babulooni balekedde awo okulwana; basigadde mu bigo byabwe. Baweddemu amaanyi; bafuuse nga bakazi. Ebifo bye mw’abeera byokeddwa omuliro; emitayimbwa gy’oku nzigi ze gimenyeddwa.
31 A rennere schal come ayens a rennere, and a messanger ayens a messanger, to telle to the kyng of Babiloyne, that his citee is takun fro the toon ende `til to the tother ende;
Matalisi omu agoberera omulala, omubaka omu n’agoberera munne, okulangirira eri kabaka w’e Babulooni nti ekibuga kye kyonna kiwambiddwa,
32 and the forthis ben bifore ocupied, and the mareisis ben brent with fier, and the men werryours ben disturblid.
entindo z’emigga baziwambye, ensenyi ziyidde omuliro, n’abaserikale batidde.”
33 For the Lord of oostis, God of Israel, seith these thingis, The douyter of Babiloyne is as a corn floor, the tyme of threischyng therof; yit a litil, and the tyme of repyng therof schal come.
Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama ow’Eggye, Katonda wa Isirayiri nti, “Muwala wa Babulooni ali ng’egguuliro, mu kiseera w’analinnyiririrwa; ebiseera eby’okumukungula binaatera okutuuka.”
34 Nabugodonosor, the kyng of Babiloyne, eet me, and deuouride me; he made me as a voide vessel, he as a dragoun swolewide me; he fillide his wombe with my tendirnesse, and he castide me out.
“Nebukadduneeza kabaka w’e Babulooni atukubyekubye, atutabudde, tufuuse ekikompe ekyereere. Atumize ng’omusota n’olubuto lwe n’alujjuza ebyassava byaffe ebiwooma, ffe n’atusesema.
35 Wickidnesse ayens me, and my fleisch on Babiloyne, seith the dwellyng of Sion; and my blood on the dwelleris of Caldee, seith Jerusalem.
Leka okubonaabona okututuuseeko kubeere ku Babulooni,” bwe boogera abatuula mu Sayuuni. “Leka omusaayi gubeere ku abo ababeera mu Babulooni,” bwayogera Yerusaalemi.
36 Therfor the Lord seith these thingis, Lo! Y schal deme thi cause, and Y schal venge thi veniaunce; and Y schal make the see therof forsakun, and Y schal make drie the veyne therof.
Mukama kyava ayogera nti, “Laba ndikulwanirira era ndikuwolerera eggwanga; Ndikaliza ennyanja ye n’ensulo ze.
37 And Babiloyne schal be in to biriels, it schal be the dwellyng of dragouns, wondryng and hissyng, for that no dwellere is.
Babulooni kirifuuka bifunvu, mpuku ya bibe, ekintu ekyenyinyalwa n’okusekererwa, ekifo omutali abeeramu.
38 Thei schulen rore togidere as liouns, and thei schulen schake lockis, as the whelpis of liouns.
Abantu baakyo bonna bawuluguma ng’empologoma ento, bavuumira wamu ng’abaana b’empologoma.
39 In the heete of hem Y schal sette the drynkis of hem; and Y schal make hem drunkun, that thei be brouyt asleepe, and that thei slepe euerlastynge sleep, and rise not, seith the Lord.
Naye nga bakyabuguumirira, ndibategekera ekijjulo, mbatamiize balyoke balekaane nga baseka, olwo beebake emirembe gyonna nga tebazuukuse,” bw’ayogera Mukama.
40 Y schal lede forth hem, as lambren to slayn sacrifice, and as wetheris with kidis. Hou is Sesac takun, and the noble citee of al erthe is takun?
“Ndibaserengesa ng’abaana b’endiga, battibwe, ng’endiga n’embuzi.
41 Hou is Babiloyne made in to wondre among hethene men?
“Sesaki nga kiriwambibwa, okujaguza kw’ensi yonna kugwewo. Babulooni kifuuse matongo eri amawanga!
42 And the see stiede on Babiloyne, it was hilid with the multitude of hise wawis.
Ennyanja eribuutikira Babulooni; amayengo gaayo agawuluguma galigisaanikira.
43 The citees therof ben maad in to wondryng, the lond is maad vnhabitable and forsakun; the lond wherynne no man dwellith, and the sone of man schal not passe bi it.
Ebibuga bye birisigala matongo, ensi enkalu ey’eddungu, ensi eteriimu muntu, eteyitamu muntu yenna.
44 And Y schal visite on Bel in to Babiloyne, and Y schal caste out of hise mouth that, that he hadde swolewid, and folkis schulen no more flowe to it; for also the wal of Babiloyne schal falle doun.
Ndibonereza Beri mu Babulooni, mmusesemye bye yali amize. Amawanga nga tegakyesomba kugenda gyali. Ne bbugwe wa Babulooni aligwa.
45 Mi puple, go ye out fro the myddis therof, that ech man saue his soule fro the wraththe of the strong veniaunce of the Lord;
“Mukiveemu, abantu bange! Mudduke muwonye obulamu bwammwe! Mudduke muwone obusungu bwa Mukama obubuubuuka.
46 and lest perauenture youre herte wexe neische, and lest ye dreden the heryng, that schal be herd in the lond; and heryng schal come in a yeer, and aftir this yeer schal come heryng and wickidnesse in the lond, and a lord on a lord.
Temutya wadde okuggwaamu amaanyi ng’eŋŋambo ziyitiŋŋana mu nsi; olugambo olumu lujja omwaka guno, olulala omwaka ogujja, eŋŋambo z’entalo mu ggwanga, era ez’omufuzi ng’alwana ne mufuzi munne.
47 Therfor lo! daies comen, seith the Lord, and Y schal visite on the grauun ymagis of Babiloyne; and al the lond therof schal be schent, and alle slayn men therof schulen falle doun in the myddis therof.
Kubanga ekiseera kijja lwe ndibonereza ebifaananyi bya bakatonda ba Babulooni abaakolebwa n’emikono; ensi eyo yonna eritabanguka, n’emirambo gy’abantu baayo abattiddwa gyonna gibeere omwo.
48 And heuenes, and erthis, and alle thingis that ben in tho, schulen herie on Babiloyne; for rauynours schulen come fro the north to it, seith the Lord.
Eggulu n’ensi ne byonna ebibirimu birireekana olw’essanyu olwa Babulooni, abalimuzikiriza balimulumba okuva mu bukiikakkono,” bw’ayogera Mukama.
49 And as Babiloyne dide, that slayn men felle doun in Israel, so of Babiloyne slayn men schulen falle doun and in al the lond.
“Babulooni kirigwa olw’Abayisirayiri abaafa, nga bonna abaafa mu nsi yonna bwe baweddewo olwa Babulooni.
50 Come ye, that fledden the swerd, nyle ye stonde; haue ye mynde afer on the Lord, and Jerusalem stie on youre herte.
Mmwe abawonye ekitala, mwanguwe okugenda! Mujjukire Mukama nga muli mu nsi ey’ewala, mulowooze ku Yerusaalemi.”
51 We ben schent, for we herden schenschipe; schame hilide oure faces, for aliens comen on the halewyng of the hous of the Lord.
“Tuweddemu amaanyi kubanga tuvumiddwa era tukwatiddwa ensonyi, kubanga abagwira bayingidde mu bifo ebitukuvu eby’ennyumba ya Mukama.”
52 Therfor lo! daies comen, seith the Lord, and Y schal visite on the grauun ymagis of Babiloyne, and in al the lond therof a woundid man schal loowe.
“Naye ennaku zijja,” bw’ayogera Mukama, “lwe ndibonereza ebifaananyi bya bakatonda be, be yakola n’emikono, era mu nsi ye yonna, abaliko ebisago balisinda.
53 If Babiloyne stieth in to heuene, and makith stidfast his strengthe an hiy, distrieris therof schulen come on me, seith the Lord.
Newaakubadde nga Babulooni atuuka ku bire era ne yeenyweza n’ebigo bye eby’amaanyi, ndimusindikira abazikiriza,” bw’ayogera Mukama.
54 The vois of a criere of Babiloyne, and greet sorewe of the lond of Caldeis,
“Eddoboozi ly’okukaaba liva mu Babulooni, eddoboozi ery’okuzikirira okunene okuva mu nsi y’Abakaludaaya.
55 for the Lord distriede Babiloyne, and lost of it a greet vois; and the wawis of hem schulen sowne as many watris. The vois of hem yaf sown,
Mukama alizikiriza Babulooni, alizikiza oluyoogaano lwakyo olunene. Amayengo g’abalabe galijja ng’amazzi amangi; okuwuluguma kw’amaloboozi kuliwulirwa.
56 for a rauenour cam on it, that is, on Babiloyne; and the stronge men therof ben takun, and the bouwe of hem welewide, for the stronge vengere the Lord yeldynge schal yelde.
Omuzikiriza alirumba Babulooni; abalwanyi be baliwambibwa, n’emitego gyabwe girimenyebwa. Kubanga Mukama Katonda asasula, alisasula mu bujjuvu.
57 And Y schal make drunkun the princis therof, and the wise men therof, the duykis therof, and the magistratis therof, and the stronge men therof; and thei schulen slepe euerlastynge sleep, and thei schulen not be awakid, seith the kyng, the Lord of oostis is name of hym.
Nditamiiza abakungu be n’abasajja be abajjudde amagezi, ne bagavana, ab’ebitongole awamu n’abalwanyi; balyebaka emirembe gyonna era tebalizuukuka,” bw’ayogera Kabaka ayitibwa Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye.
58 The Lord God of oostis seith these thingis, Thilke brodeste wal of Babiloyne schal be mynyd with mynyng, and the hiye yatis therof schulen be brent with fier; and the trauels of puples schulen be to nouyt, and the trauels of hethene men schulen be in to fier, and schulen perische.
Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye nti, “Bbugwe wa Babulooni omunene alisendebwa era n’emiryango gye emiwanvu gyokebwe; abantu beetawanyiza bwerere nga bafuba, okutawaana kw’eggwanga kuliba nku za muliro.”
59 The word which Jeremye, the profete, comaundide to Saraie, sone of Nerie, sone of Maasie, whanne he yede with Sedechie, the kyng, in to Babiloyne, in the fourthe yeer of his rewme; forsothe Saraie was prynce of profesie.
Buno bwe bubaka Yeremiya bwe yawa omukungu Seraya mutabani wa Neriya, mutabani wa Maseya, bwe yagenda e Babulooni ne Zeddekiya kabaka wa Yuda, nga Zeddekiya afuga mu mwaka gwe ogwokuna. Seraya ye yali omu ku bakungu abakulu.
60 And Jeremye wroot al the yuel, that was to comynge on Babiloyne, in a book, alle these wordis that weren writun ayens Babiloyne.
Yeremiya yali awandiise mu muzingo ebikangabwa byonna ebyali bigenda okutuuka ku Babulooni, byonna ebyali biwandiikiddwa ebyali bikwata ku Babulooni.
61 And Jeremye seide to Saraie, Whanne thou comest in to Babiloyne, and seest, and redist alle these wordis,
Yagamba Seraya nti, “Bw’otuuka mu Babulooni, laba ng’osoma mu ddoboozi ery’omwanguka ebigambo bino byonna.
62 thou schalt seie, Lord, thou spakist ayens this place, that thou schuldist leese it, that noon be that dwelle therynne, fro man `til to beeste, and that it be an euerlastynge wildirnesse.
Olwo ogambe nti, ‘Ayi Mukama, ogambye nti olizikiriza ekifo kino, nti tewali nsolo oba muntu alikibeeramu; kibeere matongo emirembe gyonna.’
63 And whanne thou hast fillid to rede this book, thou schalt bynde to it a stoon, and thou schalt caste it forth in to the myddis of Eufrates; and thou schalt seie,
Bw’omalanga okusoma omuzingo guno gusibeeko ejjinja ogukanyuge mu mugga Fulaati.
64 So Babiloyne schal be drenchid, and it schal not rise fro the face of turment, which Y brynge on it, and it schal be distried. Hidurto ben the wordis of Jeremye.
Olyoke ogambe nti, ‘Bw’ati Babulooni bwalisaanawo aleme kubbulukuka olw’akabi ke ndimuleetako. N’abantu be balizikirira.’” Ebigambo bya Yeremiya bikoma awo.
