< Okuva 15 >
1 Awo Musa n’abaana ba Isirayiri ne bayimbira Mukama oluyimba luno nga bagamba nti, “Nnaayimbiranga Mukama, kubanga awangudde n’ekitiibwa kingi. Asudde mu nnyanja embalaasi n’omwebagazi waayo.
Then Moses and the children of Israel sung this canticle to the Lord: and said: Let us sing to the Lord: for he is gloriously magnified, the horse and the rider he hath thrown into the sea.
2 Mukama ge maanyi gange era lwe luyimba lwange, era afuuse obulokozi bwange. Ye Katonda wange, nange nnaamutenderezanga, ye Katonda wa kitange, nange nnaamugulumizanga.
The Lord is my strength and my praise, and he is become salvation to me: he is my God and I will glorify him: the God of my father, and I will exalt him.
3 Mukama mulwanyi; Mukama, ly’erinnya lye.
The Lord is as a man of war, Almighty is his name.
4 Amagaali ga Falaawo n’eggye lye abisudde mu nnyanja; n’abaduumizi b’amaggye ge abalondemu basaanyeewo mu Nnyanja Emyufu.
Pharao’s chariots and his army he hath cast into the sea: his chosen captains are drowned in the Red Sea.
5 Obuziba bubasaanikidde; basse okutuuka ku ntobo ng’ejjinja.
The depths have covered them, they are sunk to the bottom like a stone.
6 “Omukono gwo ogwa ddyo, Ayi Mukama, gwalina amaanyi n’ekitiibwa; omukono gwo ogwa ddyo, Ayi Mukama, gwasesebbula omulabe.
Thy right hand, O Lord, is magnified in strength: thy right hand, O Lord, hath slain the enemy.
7 Mu bukulu obw’ekitiibwa kyo, wamegga abalabe bo, wabalaga obusungu bwo, ne bubasiriiza ng’ebisasiro.
And in the multitude of they glory thou hast put down thy adversaries: thou hast sent thy wrath, which hath devoured them like stubble.
8 Omukka bwe gwava mu nnyindo zo, amazzi ne geetuuma; amazzi g’ebuziba ne geekwata ng’ekisenge wakati mu nnyanja.
And with the blast of thy anger the waters were gathered together: the flowing water stood, the depth were gathered together in the midst of the sea.
9 “Omulabe n’ayogera nti, ‘Ka mbagobe, mbakwate. Nnaagabana omunyago; mbeemalireko eggoga. Nnaasowolayo ekitala kyange, ndyoke mbazikirize.’
The enemy said: I will pursue and overtake, I will divide the spoils, my soul shall have its fill: I will draw my sword, my hand shall slay them.
10 Naye wakunsa embuyaga zo, ennyanja n’ebasaanikira. Bakka ng’ekyuma, ne basaanawo mu mazzi amangi ag’amaanyi.
Thy wind blew and the sea covered them: they sunk as lead in the mighty waters.
11 Ani akufaanana, Ayi Mukama, mu bakatonda bonna? Ani akufaanana, ggwe, Omutukuvu Oweekitiibwa, atiibwa era atenderezebwa, akola ebyamagero?
Who is like to thee, among the strong, O Lord? who is like to thee, glorious in holiness, terrible and praiseworthy, doing wonders?
12 “Wagolola omukono gwo ogwa ddyo, ensi n’ebamira.
Thou stretchedst forth thy hand, and the earth swallowed them.
13 Mu kwagala kwo okutaggwaawo, abantu be wanunula olibakulembera. Mu maanyi go, olibatuusa mu kifo kyo ekitukuvu.
In thy mercy thou hast been a leader to the people which thou hast redeemed: and in thy strength thou hast carried them to thy holy habitation.
14 Amawanga galikiwulira ne gakankana, ababeera mu Bufirisuuti balijjula ennaku.
Nations rose up, and were angry: sorrows took hold on the inhabitants of Philisthiim.
15 Abakungu b’omu Edomu balitangaalirira nga batidde; abakulembeze ab’amaanyi aba Mowaabu balikankana; abatuuze b’omu Kanani baliggwaamu endasi.
Then were the princes of Edom troubled, trembling seized on the stout men of Moab: all the inhabitants of Chanaan became stiff.
16 Okwesisiwala n’entiisa biribajjira. Olw’omukono gwo ogw’amaanyi tebalinyega, balisirika ng’ejjinja okutuusa abantu bo lwe baliyitawo, Ayi Mukama, okutuusa abantu bo, be wanunula, lwe baliyitawo.
Let fear and dread fall upon them, in the greatness of thy arm: let them become unmoveable as a stone, until thy people, O Lord, pass by: until this thy people pass by, which thou hast possessed.
17 Olibayingiza n’obassa ku lusozi lwo lwe weerondera, kye kifo, Ayi Mukama kye weekolera mw’onoobeeranga, ekifo kyo Ekitukuvu, kye weekolera, Ayi Mukama, n’emikono gyo.
Thou shalt bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of thy inheritance, in thy most firm habitation which thou hast made, O Lord; thy sanctuary, O Lord, which thy hands have established.
18 Mukama anaafuganga emirembe n’emirembe.”
The Lord shall reign for ever and ever.
19 Embalaasi za Falaawo, n’amagaali ge, ne basajja be abeebagadde embalaasi bwe baayingira mu nnyanja, Mukama n’akomyawo amazzi ag’ennyanja ne gabasaanikira; naye nga bo abaana ba Isirayiri batambulira ku ttaka kkalu wakati mu nnyanja.
For Pharao went in on horseback with his chariots and horsemen into the sea: and the Lord brought back upon them the waters of the sea: but the children of Israel walked on dry ground in the midst thereof.
20 Awo Miryamu, nnabbi omukazi era mwannyina wa Alooni, n’akwata ekitaasa; n’abakazi abalala ne bamugoberera nga balina ebitaasa era nga bwe bazina.
So Mary the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a timbrel in her hand: and all the women went forth after her with timbrels and with dances:
21 Miryamu n’abayimbira bw’ati nti, “Muyimbire Mukama, kubanga awangudde n’ekitiibwa kingi. Asudde mu nnyanja embalaasi n’agyebagadde.”
And she began the song to them, saying: Let us sing to the Lord, for he is gloriously magnified, the horse and his rider he hath thrown into the sea.
22 Awo Musa n’akulembera Isirayiri, n’abaggya ku Nnyanja Emyufu, ne bayingirira eddungu ly’e Ssuuli. Ne batambulira ennaku ssatu mu ddungu nga tebalabye ku mazzi.
And Moses brought Israel from the Red Sea, and they went forth into the wilderness of Sur: and they marched three days through the wilderness, and found no water.
23 Bwe baatuuka e Mala, ne batasobola kunywa ku mazzi gaawo, kubanga gaali gakaawa: era eyo y’ensonga eyatuumisa ekifo ekyo Mala.
And they came into Mara, and they could not drink the waters of Mara, because they were bitter: whereupon he gave a name also agreeable to the place, calling it Mara, that is, bitterness.
24 Abantu ne beemulugunyiza Musa, ne bamubuuza nti, “Tunywe ki?”
And the people murmured against Moses, saying: What shall we drink?
25 Musa ne yeegayirira Mukama; Mukama n’amulaga ekitundu ky’omuti. Bwe yakisuula mu mazzi, amazzi ne gaba malungi okunywa. Mu kifo kino Mukama we yabaweera ekiragiro kino n’etteeka, era n’abagezesa
But he cried to the Lord, and he shewed him a tree, which when he had cast into the waters, they were turned into sweetness. There he appointed him ordinances, and judgments, and there he proved him,
26 ng’agamba nti, “Singa muwuliriza eddoboozi lya Mukama Katonda wammwe n’obwegendereza, ne mukola ebyo by’alaba nga bituufu, ne mussaayo omwoyo ku biragiro bye, era ne mugondera amateeka ge, sigenda kubaleetako ndwadde n’emu, ng’ezo ze naleetera Abamisiri, kubanga nze Mukama, nze mbawonya endwadde zammwe.”
Saying: If thou wilt hear the voice of the Lord thy God, and do what is right before him, and obey his commandments, and keep all his precepts, none of the evils that I laid upon Egypt, will I bring upon thee: for I am the Lord thy healer.
27 Awo ne batuuka mu Erimu, awaali ensulo ekkumi n’ebbiri, n’enkindu ensanvu; ne bakuba awo eweema zaabwe okumpi n’amazzi.
And the children of Israel came into Elim, where there were twelve fountains of water, and seventy palm trees: and they encamped by the waters.
