< Zephaniah 2 >

1 Come ye togidere, be gaderid, ye folc not worthi to be loued,
Mukuŋŋaane, weewaawo, mukuŋŋaane, mmwe eggwanga eritalina nsonyi,
2 bifore that comaundyng brynge forth as dust passyng dai; bifore that wraththe of strong veniaunce of the Lord come on you, bifor that the dai of his indignacioun come on you.
ekiseera ekyategekebwa nga tekinnatuuka, olunaku ne luba ng’ebisusunku ebifuumulibwa, obusungu bwa Mukama nga tebunnabatuukako, ng’olunaku olw’obusungu bwa Mukama terunnabatuukako.
3 Alle myelde men of erthe, seke ye the Lord, whiche han wrouyt the doom of hym; seke ye the iust, seke ye the mylde, if ony maner ye be hid in the dai of strong veniaunce of the Lord.
Munoonye Mukama, mmwe mwenna abawombeefu ab’omu nsi, abakola by’alagira; munoonye obutuukirivu n’obuwombeefu; mpozzi mulikwekebwa ku lunaku olw’obusungu bwe.
4 For Gasa schal be distried, and Ascalon schal be in to desert; thei schulen caste out Azotus in myddai, and Accaron schal be drawun out bi the root.
Gaza kirirekebwawo, ne Asukulooni kiriba matongo: abantu ba Asudodi baligobebwamu mu ttuntu, ne Ekuloni kirisimbulibwa.
5 Wo to you that dwellen in the litil part of the see, a folc of loste men. The word of the Lord on you, Canaan, the lond of Filisteis, and Y schal distrie thee, so that a dwellere be not;
Zibasanze mmwe ababeera ku lubalama lw’ennyanja, eggwanga ery’Abakeresi! Ekigambo kya Mukama kikwolekedde, ggwe Kanani, ensi ey’Abafirisuuti. Ndikuzikiriza so tewaliba asigalawo.
6 and the litil part of the see schal be reste of scheepherdis, and foldis of scheep.
Olubalama lw’ennyanja ab’Akeresi gye babeera luliba malundiro g’abasumba n’ebisulo by’endiga.
7 And it schal be a litil part of hym, that schal be left of the hous of Juda, there thei schulen be fed in the housis of Ascalon; at euentid thei schulen reste, for the Lord God of hem schal visite hem, and schal turne awei the caitifte of hem.
Olubalama lw’ennyanja luliba lwa kitundu ky’ennyumba ya Yuda ekyasigalawo era we banaalundiranga, ne mu nnyumba za Asukulooni mwe banaagalamiranga akawungeezi. Mukama Katonda waabwe alibalabirira, n’akomyawo obugagga bwabwe.
8 Y herde the schenschip of Moab, and blasfemyes of sones of Amon, whiche thei seiden schentfuli to my puple, and thei weren magnefied on the termes of hem.
Mpulidde okuvuma kwa Mowaabu n’okusekerera kw’Abamoni kwe bavumye abantu bange ne batiisatiisa ensi yaabwe.
9 Therfor Y lyue, seith the Lord of oostis, God of Israel, for Moab schal be as Sodom, and the sones of Amon as Gomorre; drynesse of thornes, and hepis of salt, and desert, til in to withouten ende. The relifs of my puple schulen rauysche hem, the residues of my folc schulen welde hem.
Kale nga bwe ndi omulamu, bw’ayogera Mukama Ayinzabyonna, Katonda wa Isirayiri, ddala Mowaabu aliba nga Sodomu, n’abaana ba Amoni nga Ggomola, ekifo emyennyango kye gyemala, n’ebirombe by’omunnyo, amatongo agolubeerera. Balinyagibwa abantu bange abaliba basigaddewo, n’ekitundu ky’eggwanga lyange ekifisseewo kiritwala ensi yaabwe.
10 Sotheli this thing schal come to hem for her pride, for thei blasfemeden, and weren magnefied on the puple of the Lord of oostis.
Eno y’eriba empeera yaabwe olw’amalala gaabwe, kubanga bavumye ne banyooma abantu ba Mukama Ayinzabyonna.
11 The Lord schal be orible on hem, and he schal make feble alle goddis of erthe; and men of her place schulen worschipe hym, alle the ilis of hethene men.
Mukama aliba wa ntiisa gye bali bw’alizikiriza bakatonda bonna ab’ensi. Amawanga gonna ag’oku mbalama zonna galimusinza, buli muntu ng’asinziira mu nsi ye.
12 But and ye, Ethiopiens, schulen be slayn bi my swerd.
Nammwe Abaesiyopiya, mulittibwa n’ekitala kyange.
13 And he schal stretche forth his hond on the north, and schal leese Assur; and he schal putte the feir citee Nynyue in to wildirnesse, and into with out weie, and as desert.
Aligololera omukono gwe ku bukiikakkono n’azikiriza Obwasuli; n’afuula Nineeve amatongo era ekikalu ng’eddungu.
14 And flockis, and alle the beestis of folkis, schulen ligge in the myddil therof; and onacratalus, and irchun schulen dwelle in threshfoldis therof; vois of the syngynge in wyndow, and crow in the lyntil, for Y schal make thinne the strengthe therof.
Ente n’endiga zinaagalamiranga wakati mu kyo, n’ensolo zonna eza buli kika: ekiwuugulu era ne nnamunnungu banaasulanga ku mpagi zaakyo. Amaloboozi gaabyo ganaawulikikanga mu madirisa; kafakalimbo ajjudde mu miryango, n’emikiikiro egy’emivule giryelulwa.
15 This is the gloriouse citee dwellynge in trist, which seide in hir herte, Y am, and ther is noon other more withouten me. Hou is it maad vnto desert, a couche of beeste; ech man that schal passe bi it, schal hisse, and schal moue his hond.
Kino kye kibuga ekya kyetwala, ekyayogeranga mu mutima gwakyo nti, Nze we ndi, tewali mulala wabula nze: nga kifuuse bifulukwa, ekifo ensolo ez’omu nsiko we zigalamira! Buli muntu akiyitako aneesoozanga n’akinyoomoola.
