< Lamentations 1 >

1 Aleph. Hou sittith aloone the citee ful of puple? the ladi of folkis is maad as a widewe; the prince of prouynces is maad vndir tribute.
Ekibuga ekyajjulanga abantu nga kyabuliddwa! Ekyabanga eky’amaanyi mu mawanga, nga kifuuse nga nnamwandu! Eyali kabaka omukazi ng’alina amasaza, afuuse omuddu omukazi.
2 Beth. It wepynge wepte in the niyt, and the teeris therof ben in `the chekis therof; `noon is of alle the dereworthe therof, that coumfortith it; alle the frendis therof forsoken it, and ben maad enemyes to it.
Ekiro akaaba nnyo nnyini, n’amaziga ne gakulukuta ku matama ge. Mu baganzi be bonna, talina n’omu amubeesabeesa. Mikwano gye bonna bamuliddemu olukwe, bafuuse balabe be.
3 Gymel. Juda passide fro turment and multitude of seruage, it dwellide among hethene men, and foond no reste; alle the pursueris therof token it among angwischis.
Yuda agenze mu buwaŋŋanguse oluvannyuma lw’okubonaabona n’okukozesebwa n’obukambwe ng’omuddu. Kati abeera mu bannamawanga, talaba kifo kya kuwummuliramu. Bonna abamunoonya bamusanga mu nnaku ye.
4 Deleth. The weies of Sion mourenen, for no men comen to the solempnytee; alle the yatis therof ben distried, the prestis therof weilen; the vergyns therof ben defoulid, and it is oppressid with bitternesse.
Enguudo za Sayuuni zikungubaga, kubanga tewali n’omu ajja ku mbaga zaakyo ezaalagibwa. Emiryango gye gyonna girekeddwa awo, bakabona be, basinda; bawala be abaweereza bali mu buyinike, naye yennyini ali mu nnaku.
5 He. The enemyes therof ben maad in the heed, and the enemyes therof ben maad riche, for the Lord spak on it. For the multitude of wickidnessis therof the litle children therof ben led in to caitiftee, bifore the face of the troblere.
Abamuyigganya bafuuse bakama be; abalabe be beeyagala, kubanga Mukama amuleeseeko ennaku, olw’ebibi bye ebingi. Abaana be batwalibbwa mu buwaŋŋanguse, bawambiddwa omulabe.
6 Vau. And al the fairnesse of the douyter of Syon yede out fro the douyter of Sion; the princes therof ben maad as rammes not fyndynge lesewis; and yeden forth withouten strengthe bifore the face of the suere.
Ekitiibwa kyonna ekyali ku muwala wa Sayuuni kimuweddeko, abalangira be bafuuse ng’ennangaazi ezibuliddwa omuddo; mu bunafu, badduse ababagoba.
7 Zai. And Jerusalem bithouyte on the daies of hir affliccioun and of trespassyng, and on alle hir desirable thingis whiche it hadde fro elde daies; whanne the puple therof felle doun in the hond of enemyes, and noon helpere was; enemyes sien it, and scorneden the sabatis therof.
Mu nnaku ez’okubonaabona kwe ng’asagaasagana, Yerusaalemi ajjukira ebintu eby’omuwendo byonna bye yalinanga mu nnaku ez’edda. Abantu be bwe baagwa mu mikono gy’omulabe, tewaali n’omu amubeera; abalabe be ne bamutunuulira ne bamusekerera olw’okugwa kwe.
8 Heth. Jerusalem synnede a synne, therfor it was maad vnstidfast; alle that glorifieden it forsoken it, for thei sien the schenschipe therof; forsothe it weilide, and was turned a bak.
Yerusaalemi yayonoona nnyo nnyini, bw’atyo n’afuuka atali mulongoofu. Bonna abaamussangamu ekitiibwa bamunyooma, kubanga balabye bw’asigalidde awo; ye yennyini asinda, era akwatibwa ensonyi.
9 Theth. The filthis therof ben in the feet therof, and it hadde no mynde of hir ende; it was putte doun greetli, and hadde no coumfortour; Lord, se thou my turment, for the enemye is reisid.
Obutali bulongoofu bwe bwali mu birenge bye; teyassaayo mwoyo ku bulamu bwe obw’ebiseera ebijja. Okugwa kwe kwali kwa kyewuunyo; tewaali n’omu amubeesabeesa. “Ayi Mukama, tunuulira okubonaabona kwange, kubanga omulabe awangudde.”
10 Joth. The enemye putte his hond to alle desirable thingis therof; for it siy hethene men entride in to thi seyntuarie, of which thou haddist comaundid, that thei schulden not entre in to thi chirche.
Omulabe yagololera omukono ku bintu bya Yerusaalemi byonna eby’omuwendo; yalaba amawanga amakaafiiri nga gayingira awatukuvu we, beebo be wali ogaanye okuyingira mu kuŋŋaaniro lyo.
11 Caph. Al the puple therof was weilinge and sekynge breed, thei yauen alle preciouse thingis for mete, to coumforte the soule; se thou, Lord, and biholde, for Y am maad vijl.
Abantu be bonna basinda nga bwe banoonya ekyokulya; eby’obugagga byabwe babiwanyisaamu emmere, okusobola okuba abalamu. “Laba, Ayi Mukama Katonda, onziseeko omwoyo kubanga nnyoomebwa.”
12 Lameth. A! alle ye that passen bi the weie, perseyue, and se, if ony sorewe is as my sorewe; for he gaderide awei grapis fro me, as the Lord spak in the day of wraththe of his strong veniaunce.
“Mmwe tekibakwatako, mmwe mwenna abayitawo? mwetegereze mulabe obanga waliwo obuyinike obwenkana, obwantukako, Mukama bwe yanteekako ku lunaku olw’obusungu bwe obungi.
13 Men. Fro an hiy he sente fier in my boonys, and tauyte me; he spredde a brood a net to my feet, he turnede me a bak; he settide me desolat, meddlid togidere al dai with mourenyng.
“Yaweereza omuliro okuva waggulu, ne gukka mu magumba gange. Yatega ebigere byange akatimba, n’anzizaayo emabega. Yandeka mpuubadde, nga nzirise olunaku lwonna.
14 Nun. The yok of my wickidnessis wakide in the hond of hym, tho ben foldid togidere, and put on my necke; my vertu is maad feble; the Lord yaf me in the hond, fro which Y schal not mowe rise.
“Ebibi byange binfuukidde ekikoligo; bisibiddwa ne binywezebwa omukono gwe. Binzitoowerera mu bulago, era bimmazeemu amaanyi. Mukama ampaddeyo mu mikono gy’abo be siyinza kugumiikiriza.
15 Sameth. The Lord took awei alle my worschipful men fro the myddis of me; he clepide tyme ayens me, that he schulde al to-foule my chosun men; the Lord stampide a pressour to the virgyn, the douytir of Juda.
“Mukama anyoomye abalwanyi abazira bonna abaali nange; akuŋŋaanyizza eggye okunwanyisa, okuzikiriza abavubuka bange. Mukama alinnyiridde Omuwala Embeerera owa Yuda, ng’omuntu bw’asambirira ezabbibu mu lyato ng’asogola.
16 Ayn. Therfor Y am wepynge, and myn iye is ledynge doun watir; for a coumfortour, conuertynge my soule, is maad fer fro me; my sones ben maad lost, for the enemye hadde the maistrie.
“Kyenva nkaaba, amaaso gange ne gajjula amaziga, kubanga tewali n’omu andi kumpi okumbeesabeesa, ayinza okunzizaamu amaanyi. Abaana bange banakuwavu kubanga omulabe awangudde.”
17 Phe. Sion spredde a brood hise hondis, noon is that coumfortith it; the Lord sente ayenus Jacob enemyes therof, in the cumpas therof; Jerusalem is maad as defoulid with vncleene blood among hem.
Sayuuni agolola emikono gye, naye tewali n’omu amudduukirira. Mukama awadde ekiragiro ku Yakobo baliraanwa be babeere balabe be; Yerusaalemi afuuse ekintu ekitali kirongoofu wakati mu bo.
18 Sade. The Lord is iust, for Y terride his mouth to wrathfulnesse; alle puplis, Y biseche, here ye, and se my sorewe; my virgyns and my yonge men yeden forth in to caitiftee.
“Mukama mutuukirivu, newaakubadde nga najeemera ekiragiro kye. Muwulirize mmwe amawanga gonna, mutunuulire okubonaabona kwange; Abavubuka bange ne bawala bange batwalibbwa mu busibe.
19 Coth. I clepide my frendis, and thei disseyueden me; my prestis and myn elde men in the citee ben wastid; for thei souyten mete to hem silf, to coumforte hir lijf.
“Nakoowoola bannange bannyambe, naye tebanfaako; bakabona bange n’abakadde b’ekibuga kyange bazikiririra mu kibuga nga banoonya ekyokulya baddemu amaanyi.
20 Res. Se thou, Lord, for Y am troblid, my wombe is disturblid; myn herte is distried in my silf, for Y am ful of bittirnesse; swerd sleeth with outforth, and lijk deth is at hoome.
“Laba, Ayi Mukama Katonda bwe ndi omunakuwavu! Ndi mu kubonaabona, n’omutima gwange teguteredde kubanga njeemye nnyo ekiyitiridde. Ebweru ekitala kirindiridde okunsanyaawo, ne mu nnyumba mulimu kufa kwereere.
21 Syn. Thei herden, that Y make ynward weilyng, and noon is that coumfortith me; alle myn enemyes herden myn yuel, thei ben glad, for thou hast do; thou hast brouyt a dai of coumfort, and thei schulen be maad lijk me.
“Abantu bawulidde okusinda kwange, naye tewali n’omu ananyamba. Abalabe bange bonna bawulidde okusinda kwange; basanyukidde ekyo ky’okoze. Olunaku lwe walangirira, lubatuukeko, babeere nga nze.
22 Tau. Al the yuel of hem entre byfore thee, and gadere thou grapis awei fro hem, as thou hast gaderid grapis awei fro me; for my wickidnessis, for my weilyngis ben manye, and myn herte is mornynge.
“Obabonereze olw’obutali butuukirivu bwabwe bwonna, nga nze bwe wambonereza. Okusinda kwange kungi n’omutima gwange guzirika.”
