< Lamentations 2 >

1 Aleph. Hou hath the Lord hilid the douyter of Sion with derknesse in his strong veniaunce? he hath caste doun fro heuene in to erthe the noble citee of Israel; and bithouyte not on the stool of hise feet, in the dai of his strong veniaunce.
Obusungu bwa Mukama nga bubuubuukidde ku Muwala wa Sayuuni ne bumussa wansi w’ekire! Ekitiibwa kya Isirayiri, Mukama akissizza wansi okuva mu ggulu okutuuka ku nsi; ne yeerabira entebe ey’ebigere bye ku lunaku lwe yasunguwalirako.
2 Beth. The Lord castide doun, and sparide not alle the faire thingis of Jacob; he distried in his strong veniaunce the strengthis of the virgyn of Juda, and castide doun in to erthe; he defoulide the rewme, and the princes therof.
Mukama azikirizza abatuula mu Yakobo bonna awatali kubasaasira; mu busungu bwe amenye ebigo eby’amaanyi eby’omuwala wa Yuda; assizza wansi obwakabaka bwe n’abakungu be n’abamalamu ekitiibwa.
3 Gymel. He brak in the ire of his strong veniaunce al the horn of Israel; he turnede a bak his riyt hond fro the face of the enemy; and he kyndlide in Jacob, as fier of flawme deuowrynge in cumpas.
Mu busungu obungi amaanyi gonna aga Isirayiri agakendeezezza; bw’alabye omulabe ng’asembera, n’aggyawo omukono gwe ogwa ddyo; anyiigidde Yakobo okufaanana ng’omuliro bwe gubumbujja ne gwokya buli ekiguliraanye.
4 Deleth. He as an enemye bente his bouwe, he as an aduersarie made stidfast his riyt hond; and he killide al thing that was fair in siyt in the tabernacle of the douytir of Sion; he schedde out his indignacioun as fier.
Anaanudde omutego gwe okufaanana nga ogw’omulabe, era omukono gwe ogwa ddyo mweteefuteefu. Azikirizza ebyo byonna ebisanyusa amaaso mu weema ey’omuwala wa Sayuuni, okufaanana ng’omulabe bwe yandikoze; obusungu bwe bubuubuuka ng’omuliro.
5 He. The Lord is maad as an enemy; he castide doun Israel, he castide doun alle the wallis therof; he destriede the strengthis therof, and fillide in the douyter of Juda a man maad low, and a womman maad low.
Mukama afuuse ng’omulabe; azikirizza Isirayiri, n’azikiriza embiri ze, n’azikiriza n’ebifo bye eby’amaanyi. Aleetedde muwala wa Yuda okweyongera okukaaba n’okukungubaga.
6 Vau. And he scateride his tent as a gardyn, he distried his tabernacle; the Lord yaf to foryetyng in Sion a feeste dai, and sabat; and the kyng and prest in to schenschipe, and in to the indignacioun of his strong veniaunce.
Asaanyizzaawo eweema ye n’efaanana ng’ennimiro, era azikirizza n’ekifo kye eky’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu. Mukama yeerabizza Sayuuni embaga ze entukuvu ne ssabbiiti, era mu busungu bwe obungi anyoomye kabaka ne kabona.
7 Zai. The Lord puttide awei his auter, he curside his halewyng; he bitook in to the hondis of enemy the wallis of the touris therof; thei yauen vois in the hous of the Lord, as in a solempne dai.
Mukama atamiddwa ekyoto kye, n’alekulira n’ekifo kye ekitukuvu. Awaddeyo bbugwe w’embiri ze eri omulabe; era baleekaanidde mu nnyumba ya Mukama, ne baleetamu oluyoogaano nga ku lunaku olw’embaga entukuvu.
8 Heth. The Lord thouyte to distrie the wal of the douyter of Sion; he stretchide forth his coorde, and turnede not awei his hond fro perdicioun; the forwal, ether the outerward, mourenyde, and the wal was distried togidere.
Mukama yamalirira okumenya bbugwe eyeetoolodde muwala wa Sayuuni, n’agolola omuguwa ogupima, Omukono gwe ne guteewala kuzikiriza. Yaleetera enkomera ne bbugwe okukungubaga, byonna ne biggweerera.
9 Teth. The yatis therof ben piyt in the erthe, he loste and al to-brak the barris therof; the kyng therof and the princes therof among hethene men; the lawe is not, and the profetis therof founden not of the Lord a visioun.
Emiryango gye gisse mu ttaka, n’emitayimbwa gyagyo agimenye n’agyonoona. Kabaka we n’abakungu be baawaŋŋangusizibwa, eteri mateeka gaabwe agabafuga, era ne bannabbi be tebakyafuna kwolesebwa kuva eri Mukama.
10 Joth. Thei saten in erthe, the elde men of the douytir of Sion weren stille; thei bispreynten her heedis with aische, the eldere men of Juda ben girt with hairis; the virgyns of Juda castiden doun to erthe her heedis.
Abakadde b’Omuwala wa Sayuuni batuula wansi ku ttaka nga basiriikiridde; bayiye enfuufu ku mitwe gyabwe era beesibye ebibukutu; n’abawala ba Yerusaalemi bakotese emitwe gyabwe.
11 Caph. Myn iyen failiden for teeris, myn entrails weren disturblid; my mawe was sched out in erthe on the sorewe of the douyter of my puple; whanne a litil child and soukynge failide in the stretis of the citee.
Amaaso gange gakooye olw’okukaaba n’emmeeme yange enyiikadde n’omutima gwange gulumwa olw’okuzikirizibwa kw’abantu bange, n’olw’abaana abato n’abaana abawere okuzirikira wakati mu nguudo ez’omu kibuga.
12 Lameth. Thei seiden to her modris, Where is wheete, and wyn? whanne thei failiden as woundid men in the stretis of the citee; whanne thei senten out her soulis in the bosum of her modris.
Bakaabirira bannyaabwe nga bwe boogera nti, “Omugaati n’envinnyo biri ludda wa?” nga bwe bazirika okufaanana ng’abaliko ebiwundu mu nguudo ez’ekibuga, nga bwe bakaabira mu bifuba bya bannyaabwe.
13 Men. To whom schal Y comparisoun thee? ether to whom schal Y licne thee, thou douyter of Jerusalem? to whom schal Y make thee euene, and schal Y coumforte thee, thou virgyn, the douyter of Sion? for whi thi sorewe is greet as the see; who schal do medicyn to thee?
Nnyinza kugamba ki, era kiki kye nnyinza okukugeraageranyaako ggwe Omuwala wa Yerusaalemi? Kiki kye nnyinza okukufaananya, okukusanyusa ggwe Omuwala Embeerera owa Sayuuni? Ekiwundu kyo kinene nnyo, kale ani ayinza okukiwonya?
14 Nun. Thi profetis sien to thee false thingis, and fonned; and openyden not thi wickidnesse, that thei schulden stire thee to penaunce; but thei sien to thee false takyngis, and castyngis out.
Okwolesebwa bannabbi bo kwe baafuna, kwali kwa bulimba era kwa butaliimu; tebaakutegeeza obutali butuukirivu bwo okukuwonya obusibe. Engero ze baabanyumizanga zaali za bulimba era eziwabya.
15 Sameth. Alle men passynge on the weie flappiden with hondis on thee; thei hissiden, and mouyden her heed on the douyter of Jerusalem; and seiden, This is the citee of perfit fairnesse, the ioie of al erthe.
Bonna abayitawo babakubira mu ngalo ne bafuuwa empa ne banyeenyeza omuwala wa Yerusaalemi emitwe gyabwe nga boogera nti, “Kino kye kibuga ekyayitibwanga ekituukiridde, era essanyu ly’ensi zonna?”
16 Ayn. Alle thin enemyes openyden her mouth on thee; thei hissiden, and gnaistiden with her teeth, and seiden, We schulen deuoure; lo! this is the dai which we abididen, we founden, we sien.
Abalabe bo bonna baasaamiridde nga beewuunya; nga bafuuwa empa, era baluma amannyo nga boogera nti, “Tumuzikirizza. Luno lwe lunaku lwe twalindirira, kaakano lutuukiridde, era tululabye.”
17 Phe. The Lord dide tho thingis whiche he thouyte, he fillide hise word which he hadde comaundid fro elde daies; he distriede, and sparide not; and made glad the enemy on thee, and enhaunside the horn of thin enemyes.
Mukama akoze kye yateekateeka, era atuukirizza ekigambo kye kye yalagira mu nnaku ez’edda. Akuzikirizza awatali kukusaasira, aleetedde omulabe wo okukusekerera, n’amaanyi g’abalabe bo agagulumizza.
18 Sade. The herte of hem criede to the Lord, on the wallis of the douyter of Syon; leede thou forth teeris as a stronde, bi dai and niyt; yyue thou not reste to thee, nether the appil of thin iye be stille.
Kaabirira Mukama n’eddoboozi ery’omwanguka ggwe Omuwala wa Sayuuni. Leka amaziga go gakulukute ng’omugga emisana n’ekiro. Teweewummuza so toganya maaso go kuwummula.
19 Coph. Rise thou togidere, herie thou in the nyyt, in the begynnyng of wakyngis; schede out thin herte as watir, bifore the siyt of the Lord; reise thin hondis to hym for the soulis of thi litle children, that failiden for hungur in the heed of alle meetyngis of weies.
Golokoka, okaabe ekiro obudde nga bwa kaziba; Fuka emmeeme yo ng’amazzi mu maaso ga Mukama. Yimusa emikono gyo gy’ali, olw’obulamu bw’abaana bo abato abazirise olw’enjala mu buli luguudo.
20 Res. Se thou, Lord, and byholde, whom thou hast maad so bare; therfor whether wymmen schulen ete her fruyt, litle children at the mesure of an hond? for a prest and profete is slayn in the seyntuarie of the Lord.
“Tunula, Ayi Mukama Katonda osaasire! Ani gwe wali obonerezza bw’otyo? Ddala, abakyala balye ebibala by’embuto zaabwe, abaana be bakuzizza? Ddala, bakabona ne bannabbi battibwe mu watukuvu wa Mukama?
21 Syn. A child and an elde man laien on the erthe withoutforth; my virgyns and my yonge men fellen doun bi swerd; thou hast slayn hem in the dai of thi strong veniaunce, thou smotist `and didist no merci.
“Abato n’abakulu bonna bafiiridde wamu mu nfuufu ey’enguudo; abavubuka bange ne bawala bange battiddwa n’ekitala; obattidde ku lunaku olw’obusungu bwo, era obasse awatali kusaasira.
22 Thau. Thou clepidist, as to a solempne dai, hem that maden me aferd of cumpas; and noon was that ascapide in the dai of the strong veniaunce of the Lord, and was left; myn enemy wastide hem, whiche Y fedde, and nurschide up.
“Nga bw’oyita abantu ku lunaku olw’embaga, bw’otyo bw’ompitidde ebikemo ku njuyi zonna; era ku lunaku olw’obusungu bwa Mukama, tewali n’omu eyasimattuka newaakubadde eyasigalawo; abo be nalabirira ne nkuza, omulabe wange be yazikiriza.”
