2 Bassekabaka 3
1 Mu mwaka ogw’ekkumi n’omunaana ogw’obwakabaka bwa Yekosafaati kabaka wa Yuda, Yekolaamu mutabani wa Akabu n’alya obwakabaka bwa Isirayiri e Samaliya, era n’afugira emyaka kkumi n’ebiri.
Forsothe Joram, sone of Achab, regnede on Israel, in Samarie, in the eiytenthe yeer of Josephat, kyng of Juda. And he regnede twelue yeer,
2 Yakola ebibi mu maaso ga Mukama, newaakubadde nga teyatuuka ku bibi bya kitaawe ne nnyina. Yazikiriza n’empagi eya Baali kitaawe gye yali asimbye.
and he dide yuel bifor the Lord, but not as his fader and modir;
3 Newaakubadde ng’ekyo yakikola, teyalekayo kukola ebibi ng’ebyo Yerobowaamu mutabani wa Nebati bye yakola, n’ayonoonyesa Isirayiri.
for he took awei the ymagis of Baal, whiche his fadir hadde maad, netheles in the synnes of Jeroboam, sone of Nabath, that made Israel to do synne, `he cleuyde, and yede not awei fro tho.
4 Mesa Kabaka wa Mowaabu yalundanga endiga, era yalina omutemwa ogw’okuwangayo abaana b’endiga emitwalo kkumi, n’ebyoya by’endiga ennume emitwalo kkumi eri Akabu.
Forsothe Mesa, kyng of Moab, nurschide many beestis, and paiede to the kyng of Israel an hundrid thousynde of lambren, and an hundrid thousynde of wetheris, with her fleesis.
5 Naye Akabu olwafa, kabaka wa Mowaabu n’atandika okujeemera kabaka wa Isirayiri.
And whanne Achab was deed, he brak the boond of pees, which he hadde with the kyng of Israel.
6 Awo mu biro ebyo kabaka Yekolaamu n’asitula okuva e Samaliya, n’akunga Isirayiri yenna okugenda naye.
Therfor kyng Joram yede out of Samarie in that dai, and noumbride al Israel.
7 N’atumira ne Yekosafaati kabaka wa Yuda nti, “Kabaka wa Mowaabu anjeemedde, onooyinza okumbeera tumulwanyise?” Yekosafaati n’amuddamu nti, “Nnaagenda naawe, kubanga nze ndi nga bw’oli, era abantu bange be bantu bo, n’embalaasi zange ze zizo.”
And he sente to Josephat, kyng of Juda, and seide, The kyng of Moab yede awei fro me; come thou with me ayens him to batel. Which Josephat answeride, Y schal stie; he that is myn, is thin; my puple is thi puple; and myn horsis ben thin horsis.
8 Yekosafaati n’amubuuza nti, “Ye, tunaalumba kuva ku luuyi ki?” Yekolaamu n’amuddamu nti, “Tunaayita mu ddungu erya Edomu.”
And he seide, Bi what weie schulen we stie? And he answeride, Bi the deseert of Ydumee.
9 Awo kabaka wa Isirayiri, n’asitukira wamu ne kabaka wa Yuda ne kabaka wa Edomu ne bagenda mu lutalo. Ne batambula olugendo lwa nnaku musanvu, n’oluvannyuma ne beesanga ng’eggye amazzi galiweddeko, nga n’ebisolo byabwe tebirina wadde ettondo.
Therfor the kyng of Israel, and the kyng of Juda, and the kyng of Edom, yeden forth, and cumpassiden bi the weie of seuene daies; and `watir was not to the oost, and to the beestis, that sueden hem.
10 Kabaka wa Isirayiri ne yeekanga nnyo. N’ayogera nti, “Zitusanze! Ffenna abasatu, Mukama atuwaddeyo mu mukono gwa Mowaabu?”
And the kyng of Israel seide, Alas! alas! alas! the Lord hath gaderide vs thre kyngis to bitake vs in the hond of Moab.
11 Kyokka Yekosafaati n’abuuza nti, “Tewali wano nnabbi wa Mukama tumwebuuzeeko?” Awo omu ku bakungu ba kabaka wa Isirayiri n’amuddamu nti, “Wano waliwo Erisa mutabani wa Safati. Ye yali omuweereza wa Eriya ow’oku mwanjo.”
And Josephat seide, Whether ony prophete of the Lord is here, that we biseche the Lord bi hym? And oon of the seruauntis of the kyng of Israel answeride, Elisee, the sone of Saphat, is here, that schedde watir on the hondis of Elie.
12 Yekosafaati n’ayogera nti, “Alina ekigambo okuva eri Mukama.” Awo Yekosafaati kabaka wa Yuda, awamu ne kabaka wa Isirayiri, ne kabaka wa Edomu ne baserengeta gy’ali.
And Josephat seide, Is the word of the Lord at hym? Whiche seiden, `It is. And the kyng of Israel, and Josephat, kyng of Juda, and the kyng of Edom, yeden doun to hym.
13 Awo Erisa n’agamba kabaka wa Isirayiri nti, “Onnanga ki? Genda eri bannabbi ba kitaawo n’aba maama wo.” Kabaka wa Isirayiri n’amuddamu nti, “Nedda sijja kugendayo; kubanga kirabika nga Mukama atukuŋŋaanyiza ffensatule, okutuwaayo mu mukono gwa Mowaabu.”
Forsothe Elise seide to the kyng of Israel, What is to me and to thee? Go thou to the prophetis of thi fadir and of thi modir. And the kyng of Israel seide to hym, Whi hath the Lord gaderid these thre kyngis, to bitake hem into the hondis of Moab?
14 Erisa n’ayogera nti, “Nga Mukama Katonda Ayinzabyonna gwe mpeereza bw’ali omulamu, singa nnali siwa Yekosafaati kabaka wa Yuda kitiibwa, sandikukubyeko munye ya liiso wadde okukusaako omwoyo.
And Elisee seide to hym, The Lord of oostis lyueth, in whos siyt Y stonde, if Y were not aschamed of the cheer of Josephat, king of Juda, treuli Y hadde not perseyued, nethir Y hadde biholde thee.
15 Naye kaakano, mundeetere omukubi w’ennanga.” Omukubi w’ennanga bwe yali ng’akyakuba ennanga, amaanyi ga Mukama ne gakka ku Erisa,
Now forsothe brynge ye to me a sautrere. And whanne the sautrere song, the hond of the Lord was maad on hym, and he seide, The Lord seith these thingis,
16 n’ayogera nti, “Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti, ‘Musime ensalosalo mu kiwonvu kino.’
Make ye the wombe, ether depthe, of this stronde dichis and dichis.
17 Mukama agamba nti, ‘Temuulabe mbuyaga wadde enkuba, naye ekiwonvu kino kijja kujjula amazzi, era mmwe munaanywa, n’ente zammwe zinaanywa, n’ebisolo byammwe ebirala nabyo binywe.
For the Lord seith these thingis, Ye schulen not se wynd, nethir reyn, and this depthe schal be fillid with watris, and ye schulen drynke, and youre meynees, and youre beestis.
18 Eyo nsonga nnyangu mu maaso ga Mukama, era n’Abamowaabu mujja kubawangula.
And this is litil in the siyt of the Lord. Ferthermore also he schal bitake Moab in to youre hondis;
19 Mulizikiriza buli kibuga ekyetooloddwa bbugwe na buli kibuga ekikulu, era mulitema buli muti omulungi, ne muziyiza n’enzizi okuleeta amazzi, era ne mwonoona buli nnimiro nga mugijjuza amayinja.’”
and ye schulen smyte ech strengthid citee, and ech chosun citee, and ye schulen kitte doun ech tre berynge fruyt, and ye schulen stoppe alle the wellis of watris, and ye schulen hile with stonys ech noble feeld.
20 Awo obudde bwe bwakya, mu kiseera eky’okuweerayo ssaddaaka, amazzi ne gakulukuta nga gava ku luuyi olwa Edomu, ensi n’ejjula amazzi.
Therfor it was doon eerli, whanne sacrifice is wont to be offrid, and, lo! watris camen bi the weie of Edom, and the lond was fillid with watris.
21 Abamowaabu bonna bwe baawulira nga bakabaka babalumbye okulwana nabo, buli musajja, omuto n’omukulu abaali basobola okwambala ebyokulwanyisa, ne bayitibwa okugenda okutabaala.
Sotheli alle men of Moab herden, that kyngis hadden stied to fiyte ayens hem; `and men of Moab clepiden togidere alle men, that weren gird with girdil aboue, and thei stoden in the termes.
22 Enkeera enjuba bwe yayaka ku mazzi, Abamowaabu ne balowooza nti amazzi mamyufu kubanga gaabalabikira ng’omusaayi.
And men of Moab risiden ful eerli, and whanne the sunne was risun thanne euen ayens the watris, thei sien the watris reed as blood euene ayens.
23 Ne bagamba nti, “Guno musaayi! Kirabika nga bakabaka baalwanye bokka ne bokka, ne battiŋŋana, kale Mowaabu mugwe ku munyago.”
And thei seiden, It is the blood of swerd, `that is, sched out bi swerd; kyngis fouyten ayens hem silf, and thei ben slayn togider; now go thou, Moab, to the prey.
24 Naye Abamowaabu bwe baali nga baakayingira mu nkambi y’Abayisirayiri, amangwago Abayisirayiri ne batandika okulwana nabo, okutuusa Abamowaabu lwe badduka.
And thei yeden in to the castels of Israel; forsothe Israel roos, and smoot Moab, and thei fledden bifor men of Israel. Therfor thei that hadden ouercome, camen, and smytiden Moab, and destrieden cytees;
25 Ne bamenyaamenya ebibuga by’Abamowaabu, ne bakanyuga amayinja ku buli kibanja ekirungi okutuusa lwe gaakolangako entuumo; ne baziba enzizi zonna ez’amazzi, ne batema na buli muti omulungi. Kirukalesesi kye kifo kyokka ekyali kitalumbiddwa, naye oluvannyuma abasajja ab’envuumuulo ne bakirumba.
and alle men sendynge stoonys filliden ech beste feeld, and stoppiden alle the wellis of watris, and kittiden doun alle trees berynge fruyt, so that oneli `wallis maad of erthe weren left; and the citee was cumpassid of men settinge engynes, and was smytun bi greet part.
26 Awo kabaka wa Mowaabu bwe yalaba ng’olutalo lumugendedde bubi, n’atwala abasajja ab’ebitala lusanvu, ne bagenda naye okulumba kabaka wa Edomu, kyokka ne balemelerwa.
And whanne the kyng of Moab hadde seyn this, that is, that the enemyes hadden the maistrie, he took with hym seuene hundrid men drawynge swerdis, that thei shulden breke in to the kyng of Edom; and thei myyten not.
27 N’addira mutabani we omuggulanda, eyali ateekwa okumusikira, n’amuweerayo ku bbugwe w’ekibuga ng’ekiweebwayo ekyokebwa. Abayisirayiri ne beesisiwala nnyo ne beetamwa, era ne baddayo mu nsi yaabwe.
And he took his firste gendrid sone, that schulde regne for hym, and offride brent sacrifice on the wal; and greet indignacioun was maad in Israel; and anoon thei yeden awei fro hym, and turneden ayen in to her lond.
