< Jeremia 6 >

1 “Mwĩtharei mwĩhonokie, inyuĩ andũ a Benjamini! Mwĩtharei muume Jerusalemu! Huhai karumbeta mũrĩ kũu Tekoa! Ĩkĩrai kĩmenyithia kũu Bethi-Hakeremu! Nĩgũkorwo ũũru nĩũũkĩte uumĩte na mwena wa gathigathini, na nĩ ũũru wa kũniinanwo kũnene mũno.
Mwekuŋŋaanye mudduke mmwe abantu ba Benyamini! Mmudduke muve mu Yerusaalemi. Fuuwa ekkondeere mu Tekowa, era yimusa ebbendera mu Besukakkeremu: kubanga akacwano kasinzidde mu bukiikakkono, okuzikirira okw’entiisa.
2 Nĩngananga Mwarĩ wa Zayuni, o ũcio mũthaka na mwĩbacĩrĩri mũno.
Ndizikiriza omuwala wa Sayuuni, omulungi oyo omubalagavu.
3 Arĩithi marĩ na ndũũru ciao cia mbũri nĩmagooka nĩguo mamũũkĩrĩre; nĩmakaamba hema ciao imũthiũrũrũkĩirie mĩena yothe, o mũndũ o mũndũ akarangĩra handũ hake.”
Abasumba balimulumba n’ebisibo byabwe. Balimwetoolooza weema zaabwe zimwolekere enjuuyi zonna, buli omu yeezimbire w’ayagala.
4 “Mwĩhaarĩriei tũrũe nake! Arahũkai, rekei tũmũtharĩkĩre mĩaraho! No rĩrĩ, wũi-ĩiya-ĩ! Nĩkũratuka, nacio ciĩruru cia hwaĩ-inĩ nĩiraraiha.
“Mwetegeke mumulwanyise! Muyimuke, tumulumbe mu ttuntu! Naye, nedda, omusana gugenda guggwaayo, n’ebisiikirize by’akawungeezi biwanvuye!
5 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, arahũkai, tũtharĩkĩre kũrĩ ũtukũ, tũharaganie ciĩgitio ciake iria nũmu!”
Tugende, tulumbe kiro tuzikirize amayumba ge.”
6 Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga atĩrĩ: “Temai mĩtĩ mũmĩige ihũba nene ingʼetheire Jerusalemu. Itũũra rĩrĩ inene no nginya rĩherithio; nĩ ũndũ rĩiyũrĩte ũhoro wa kũhinyanĩrĩria.
Bw’ati Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye bw’agamba nti, “Muteme emiti mukole entuumo muzingize Yerusaalemi. Ekibuga kino kiteekwa okubonerezebwa kyonna, kubanga kijjudde bujoozi bwerere.
7 O ta ũrĩa gĩthima gĩtherũkaga maaĩ-rĩ, ũguo noguo itũũra rĩu rĩtherũkaga waganu. Maũndũ ma ũhinya na wanangi no mo maiguagwo kuo; ndwari ciakuo na nguraro nĩcio ndũũraga nyonaga.
Ng’oluzzi bwe lukulukusa amazzi, bwe kityo bwe kikulukusa ebibi byakyo, entalo era n’okuzikirira biwulirwa munda waakyo. Obulwadde n’ebiwundu bye ndaba buli bbanga.
8 Atĩrĩrĩ, wee Jerusalemu, ĩtĩkĩra gũtaarwo, kwaga ũguo nĩngũkũhutatĩra na ndũme bũrũri waku ũkire ihooru, nginya kwage mũndũ ũngĩtũũra kuo.”
Nkulabula, ggwe Yerusaalemi, emmeeme yange ereme okwawukana naawe, si kulwa ng’ofuuka amatongo.”
9 Ũũ nĩguo Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga: “Atĩrĩrĩ, andũ nĩmarekwo mahaare matigari ma Isiraeli mahinyĩtie, o ta ũrĩa mũthabibũ ũhaaragwo; cookerithia guoko honge-inĩ rĩngĩ, o ta ũrĩa mũcookereria wa thabibũ ekaga.”
Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye nti, “Balisusumbulira ddala n’abo abatono abaliba basigaddewo mu Isirayiri. Ddamu oyise omukono mu matabi ng’omunozi we zabbibu bw’akola.”
10 Nũũ ingĩkĩarĩria ndĩmũkaanie na anjigue? Nũũ ũngĩĩthikĩrĩria? Matũ mao nĩmahinge, nĩ ũndũ ũcio matiingĩigua. Ndũmĩrĩri ya Jehova nĩĩmahĩtagĩria, na matingĩmĩkenera.
Ndyogera eri ani gwe ndirabula? Ani alimpuliriza? Amatu gaabwe gagaddwa ne batasobola kuwulira. Ekigambo kya Mukama kiri nga kyakusesa gye bali, tebakisanyukira n’akamu.
11 No rĩrĩ, niĩ njiyũrĩtwo nĩ mangʼũrĩ ma Jehova, ndingĩhota kũmahingĩrĩria. “Maitĩrĩrie ciana iria irĩ barabara-inĩ, na ũmaitĩrĩrie aanake arĩa monganĩte hamwe; mũthuuri na mũtumia wake, maitĩkĩrwo nĩmo, o ũndũ ũmwe na andũ arĩa akũrũ, arĩa maingĩhĩtie mĩaka.
Kyenva nzijula ekiruyi sikyasobola kukizibiikiriza. “Kiyiwe ku baana abali mu luguudo, ne ku bavubuka abakuŋŋaanye; abaami awamu n’abakazi n’abakadde abo abawezezza emyaka emingi baliwambibwa.
12 Nyũmba ciao igaatuĩka cia andũ angĩ, o hamwe na mĩgũnda yao na atumia ao, rĩrĩa ngaatambũrũkia guoko gwakwa njũkĩrĩre andũ arĩa matũũraga bũrũri ũcio,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
Enju zaabwe ziritwalibwa abalala, n’ennimiro zaabwe awamu ne bakazi baabwe; kubanga ndigolola omukono gwange ku abo abali mu nsi,” bw’ayogera Mukama.
13 “Kuuma ũrĩa mũnini nginya ũrĩa mũnene, othe nĩmakoroketio nĩ kwenda kwĩguna; anabii o hamwe na athĩnjĩri-Ngai, othe nĩmaheenanagia.
“Kubanga okuva ku asembayo wansi okutuusa ku asingayo waggulu, buli omu alulunkanira kufuna. Nnabbi ne kabona bonna boogera eby’obulimba.
14 Mohaga kĩronda kĩa andũ akwa taarĩ kĩronda kĩa andũ matagurarĩtio mũno, makĩmeeraga atĩrĩ: ‘Gwĩ thayũ, gwĩ thayũ,’ o rĩrĩa gũtarĩ thayũ.
Ekiwundu ky’abantu bange bakijjanjaba ng’ekitali ky’amaanyi. Boogera nti, ‘Mirembe, mirembe.’ So nga tewali mirembe.
15 Hihi nĩmaconokaga nĩ mũtugo ũcio wao ũrĩ magigi? Aca, maticonokaga o na hanini; o na matirĩ rũkobe. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio o nao makaagũanĩra na arĩa makaagũa; nĩmakarũndwo rĩrĩa ngaamaherithia,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
Bakwatibwa ensonyi olw’ebikolwa byabwe eby’emizizo? Nedda. Tebakwatibwa nsonyi n’akatono. Noolwekyo baligwira wamu n’abo abaligwa; balisuulibwa wansi bwe ndibabonereza,” bw’ayogera Mukama.
16 Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: “Rũgamai magomano-inĩ ma njĩra, mũtuĩrie ũhoro; ũrĩrĩriai njĩra iria ciageragwo tene, mũũrie harĩa njĩra ĩrĩa njega ĩrĩ, nĩguo mũmĩgerere, nacio ngoro cianyu nĩikahurũka. No inyuĩ mũkiuga atĩrĩ, ‘Ithuĩ tũtikũmĩgerera.’
Kino Mukama ky’agamba nti, “Yimirira mu masaŋŋanzira otunule. Buuza amakubo ag’edda, buuza ekkubo eddungi gye liri, era otambulire omwo, emmeeme yammwe erifuna ekiwummulo. Naye ne mugamba nti, ‘Tetujja kulitambuliramu.’
17 Nĩndaigire arangĩri nĩguo mamũrangĩre, ngiuga atĩrĩ, ‘Ta thikĩrĩriai karumbeta!’ No inyuĩ mũkiuga atĩrĩ, ‘Ithuĩ tũtigũthikĩrĩria.’
Nabateerawo abakuumi babategeeze nti, Muwulirize eddoboozi ly’ekkondeere, naye ne mugamba nti, ‘Tetujja kuwuliriza.’
18 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, thikĩrĩriai inyuĩ ndũrĩrĩ; rorai wega inyuĩ aira, nĩguo mũmenye ũrĩa gũgekĩka kũrĩ andũ akwa.
Kale muwulire, mmwe amawanga era mulabe mmwe ab’ekkuŋŋaaniro ekyo ekiribatuukako.
19 Ta thikĩrĩria, wee thĩ: nĩngũrehere andũ aya mwanangĩko, ũrĩ maciaro ma maũndũ marĩa mathugundaga, tondũ nĩmagĩte gũthikĩrĩria ndũmĩrĩri yakwa, na nĩmaregete watho wakwa.
Wuliriza, ggwe ensi: laba, ndeeta akabi ku bantu bano, by’ebibala by’enkwe zaabwe, kubanga tebafuddeeyo ku bigambo byange n’etteeka lyange baligaanye.
20 Ngĩrĩ na bata ũrĩkũ na ũbumba ũcio wa kuuma Sheba, kana igwa cia mũrĩo cia kuuma bũrũri wa kũraya? Maruta manyu ma njino matingĩĩtĩkĩrĩka; magongona manyu matingenagia.”
Omugavu oguva e Seeba bampa gwa ki? Oba zino emmuli ezakaloosa eziva mu nsi ey’ewala? Ebiweebwayo byammwe ebyokebwa sijja kubikkiriza, n’essaddaaka zammwe tezinsanyusa.”
21 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: “Nĩngwĩkĩra mĩhĩnga mbere ya andũ aya. Maithe na ariũ ao nĩmakahĩngagwo nĩyo; andũ a itũũra hamwe na arata ao nĩmagakua.”
Noolwekyo bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti, “Laba nditeeka enkonge mu maaso g’abantu bano; bakitaabwe ne batabani baabwe bonna bazesittaleko. Muliraanwa we ne mukwano gwe balizikirira.”
22 Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: “Ta rorai muone, nĩ harĩ na ita rĩroka riumĩte bũrũri wa mwena wa gathigathini; rũrĩrĩ rũnene nĩ rwarahũrĩtwo kuuma ituri-inĩ cia thĩ.
Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama, nti, “Laba, eggye lijja eriva mu nsi ey’omu bukiikakkono, eggwanga ery’amaanyi liyimusibwa okuva ku nkomerero z’ensi.
23 Manyiitĩte mĩguĩ na matimũ; nĩ andũ ooru matarĩ tha. Mũrurumo wao magĩũka mahaicĩte mbarathi, nĩ ta wa ndiihũ cia iria rĩrĩa inene; maroka mehaarĩirie ta andũ moka mbaara nĩguo magũtharĩkĩre, wee Mwarĩ wa Zayuni.”
Bakutte omutego n’effumu, abakambwe abatalina kusaasira. Bawulikika ng’ennyanja ewuuma, nga beebagadde embalaasi zaabwe: bajja ng’abalwanyi mu byambalo by’olutalo okulumba ggwe Muwala wa Sayuuni!”
24 Nĩtũiguĩte ũhoro wa andũ acio, namo moko maitũ nĩmorĩtwo nĩ hinya. Nĩtũnyiitĩtwo nĩ ruo rũnene, ruo rũhaana ta rwa mũtumia ũkũrũmwo.
Tuwulidde ettutumu lyabwe; era emikono gyaffe giweddemu amaanyi okulumwa okunene kutukutte n’okulumwa ng’okw’omukazi alumwa okuzaala.
25 Mũtikoimagare mũthiĩ mĩgũnda, kana mũthiĩ na njĩra, nĩ ũndũ thũ ĩyo ĩrĩ na rũhiũ rwa njora, na kũrĩ na imakania irigiicĩirie mĩena yothe.
Togeza kugenda mu nnimiro newaakubadde okutambulira mu kkubo; kubanga omulabe abunye wonna wonna n’entiisa ejjudde mu bantu.
26 Inyuĩ andũ akwa, mwĩhumbei nguo ya ikũnia, na mwĩgaragarie mũhu-inĩ; rĩrai na kĩgi, ta ũrĩa mwana wa mũmwe arĩragĩrwo, nĩgũkorwo mwanangi ũcio agaatũhithũkĩra o rĩmwe.
Kale nno mmwe abantu, mwambale ebibukutu era mwevulunge mu vvu; mukungubage ng’abakaabira omwana owoobulenzi omu yekka. Kubanga oyo agenda okuzikiriza ajja kutugwako mavumbavumba.
27 “Wee nawe nĩngũtuĩte mũgeria wa cuuma, nao andũ akwa matariĩ ta kĩgera, nĩguo wee ũrorage na ũthimage mĩthiĩre yao.
“Nkufudde ekigezesa abantu bange n’ekyuma, osobole okulaba n’okugezesa amakubo gaabwe.
28 Nĩ aremi momĩtie ngoro, mathiiaga magĩcambanagia. Mahaana o ta gĩcango na kĩgera; othe mekaga maũndũ mathũku mũno.
Bonna bakyewaggula abakakanyavu abagenda bawaayiriza, bikomo era kyuma, bonna boonoonefu.
29 Ihuruti nĩirahurutĩra mwaki na hinya nĩguo ũcine ngocorai, no rĩrĩ, wĩra ũcio ũrarutwo wa kũmatheria no wa tũhũ; arĩa aaganu matirathera.
Emivubo bagifukuta n’amaanyi, omuliro gumalawo essasi, naye balongoosereza bwereere kubanga ababi tebaggyibwamu.
30 Andũ acio marĩĩtagwo betha-ĩrĩa-ĩregetwo, nĩ ũndũ Jehova nĩamaregeete.”
Baliyitibwa masengere ga ffeeza, kubanga Mukama abalese.”
