1 Abamu ku bakadde ba Isirayiri ne bajja gye ndi, ne batuula mu maaso gange.
Kwasekufika kimi abanye babadala bakoIsrayeli, bahlala phambi kwami.
2 Awo ekigambo kya Mukama ne kinzijira ng’agamba nti,
Ilizwi leNkosi laselifika kimi lisithi:
3 “Omwana w’omuntu, abasajja bano batadde bakatonda abalala ku mitima gyabwe ne bateeka n’ebyesittaza mu maaso gaabwe. Mbakkirize banneebuuzeeko?
Ndodana yomuntu, lamadoda amise izithombe zawo enhliziyweni yawo, abeka isikhubekiso sesiphambeko sawo phambi kobuso bawo: Ngingabuzwa yiwo ngeqiniso yini?
4 Noolwekyo yogera gye bali obategeeze nti, ‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti, Omuyisirayiri yenna bw’ateeka bakatonda abalala ku mutima gwe, n’ateeka n’ebyesittaza mu maaso ge, n’agenda eri nnabbi, nze kennyini, nze nnaamwanukulanga olwa bakatonda be abalala baayita abakulu.
Ngakho khuluma lawo, uthi kuwo: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Wonke umuntu wendlu kaIsrayeli omisa izithombe zakhe enhliziyweni yakhe, abeke isikhubekiso sesiphambeko sakhe phambi kobuso bakhe, abesesiza kumprofethi, mina iNkosi ngizamphendula njengobunengi bezithombe zakhe;
5 Bwe ntyo bwe ndikola okwewangulira emitima gy’ennyumba ya Isirayiri, bonna abaanvaako okugoberera bakatonda abalala.’
ukuze ngibambe indlu kaIsrayeli ngenhliziyo yabo, ngoba bonke bazenze abemzini kimi ngezithombe zabo.
6 “‘Noolwekyo tegeeza ennyumba ya Isirayiri nti, Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti, Mwenenye muleke bakatonda bammwe, mulekeyo ebikolwa byammwe eby’ekivve.
Ngakho tshono kuyo indlu kaIsrayeli: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Phendukani, lifulathele izithombe zenu, lifulathelise ubuso benu kuzo zonke izinengiso zenu.
7 “‘Omuyisirayiri yenna oba omugenyi abeera mu Isirayiri bw’ananvangako, n’ateeka bakatonda abalala ku mutima gwe n’ateeka n’ebyesittaza mu maaso ge, ate n’agenda eri nnabbi okunneebuuzaako, nze Mukama nze nnaamwanukulanga.
Ngoba ngulowo lalowo wendlu kaIsrayeli, kumbe owezizweni ohlala koIsrayeli njengowezizwe ozehlukanisa ekungilandeleni, amise izithombe zakhe enhliziyweni yakhe, abeke isikhubekiso sobubi bakhe phambi kobuso bakhe, eze kumprofethi ukubuza kuye ngami; mina Nkosi ngizamphendula ngokwami.
8 Omuntu oyo nnaamulwanyisanga ne mufuula ekyokulabirako era eky’okunyumyako. Ndimusalako ku bantu be, mulyoke mumanye nga nze Mukama.
Ngizamisa ubuso bami ngimelane lalowomuntu, ngimenze abe yisibonakaliso lezaga, ngimqume asuke phakathi kwabantu bami; lizakwazi-ke ukuthi ngiyiNkosi.
9 “‘Nnabbi bw’anaasendebwasendebwanga okuwa obubaka ng’ategeeza nti nze Mukama Katonda nsenzesenze nnabbi oyo, ndigolola omukono gwange ku ye ne muzikiriza okumuggya mu bantu bange Isirayiri.
Futhi uba umprofethi ekhohliseka, nxa ekhulume ilizwi, mina Nkosi ngimkhohlisile lowomprofethi; njalo ngizakwelulela isandla sami phezu kwakhe, ngimbhubhise asuke phakathi kwabantu bami uIsrayeli.
10 Baliba bansingiddwa omusango, era nnabbi aliba asingiddwa omusango gwe gumu n’oyo azze okumwebuuzaako.
Njalo bazathwala icala labo. Njengecala lobuzayo lizakuba njalo icala lomprofethi;
11 Olwo ennyumba ya Isirayiri tebaliddayo nate kubula newaakubadde okweyonoona n’ebibi byabwe byonna. Baliba bantu bange, nange ndiba Katonda waabwe, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.’”
ukuze indlu kaIsrayeli ingabe isaphambuka ekungilandeleni, futhi ingabuyi izingcolise ngeziphambeko zabo zonke, kodwa ukuthi babe ngabantu bami, lami ngibe nguNkulunkulu wabo, itsho iNkosi uJehova.
12 Awo ekigambo kya Mukama ne kinzijira ng’agamba nti,
Ilizwi leNkosi lafika kimi futhi lisithi:
13 “Omwana w’omuntu, ensi bw’ekola ebibi mu maaso gange n’ebeera etali nneesigwa, ne ngolola omukono gwange gy’eri ne nsalako obugabirizi bw’emmere yaabwe, ne mbasindikira ekyeya, ne nzita abantu baamu n’ensolo zaabwe,
Ndodana yomuntu, lapho ilizwe lisona kimi ngokuphambeka okukhulu, ngizakwelulela isandla sami phezu kwalo, ngephule udondolo lwesinkwa salo, ngithume indlala kulo, ngiqume kulo umuntu lenyamazana;
14 newaakubadde ng’abasajja bano abasatu Nuuwa, ne Danyeri, ne Yobu bandibadde bagirimu, bandiwonyeza bulamu bwabwe bwokka olw’obutuukirivu bwabwe, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
lanxa lamadoda amathathu, oNowa, uDaniyeli, loJobe, ayephakathi kwalo, wona ayezakhulula umphefumulo wawo wodwa ngokulunga kwawo, itsho iNkosi uJehova.
15 “Oba newaakubadde nga nsindika ensolo enkambwe ez’omu nsiko mu nsi eyo, ne zigyonoona ne zigireka nga temuli mwana n’omu, n’efuuka matongo, ne wataba n’omu agiyitamu olw’ensolo ezo,
Uba ngidabulisa izilo ezimbi elizweni, zenze lifelwe ngabantwana, lize libe lunxiwa, kuze kungabi khona odlulayo ngenxa yezilo,
16 ddala nga bwe ndi omulamu, abasajja abo abasatu tebandiwonyezza batabani baabwe wadde bawala baabwe, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda. Bo bokka be bandiwonye, naye ensi yandifuuse matongo.
loba lamadoda amathathu abephakathi kwalo, kuphila kwami, itsho iNkosi uJehova, abengayikukhulula amadodana kumbe amadodakazi; wona wodwa abezakhululwa, kodwa ilizwe libe lunxiwa.
17 “Oba singa ndeeta ekitala ku nsi eyo ne njogera nti, ‘Leka ekitala kiyite mu nsi yonna,’ ne nzita abantu baamu n’ensolo zaabwe,
Kumbe uba ngisehlisela inkemba phezu kwalelolizwe ngithi: Nkemba, dabula phakathi kwelizwe, ukuze ngiqume ngisuse kulo umuntu lenyamazana;
18 nga bwe ndi omulamu, newaakubadde ng’abasajja bano abasatu bandibadde bagirimu, tebandiwonyezza batabani baabwe wadde bawala baabwe. Bandiwonyeza bulamu bwabwe bwokka olw’obutuukirivu bwabwe, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
loba lamadoda amathathu abephakathi kwalo, kuphila kwami, itsho iNkosi uJehova, abengayikukhulula amadodana kumbe amadodakazi, kodwa wona wodwa abezakhululwa.
19 “Oba singa ndeeta kawumpuli mu nsi eyo, ne mbafukako ekiruyi kyange, ne njiwa omusaayi mu nsi eyo, ne nzita abantu baamu n’ensolo zaabwe,
Kumbe uba ngithumela umatshayabhuqe wesifo kulelolizwe, ngithululele ukuthukuthela kwami phezu kwalo ngegazi, ukuze ngiqume ngisuse kulo umuntu lenyamazana;
20 nga bwe ndi omulamu, Nuuwa ne Danyeri ne Yobu ne bwe bandigibaddemu, tebandiwonyezza mutabani waabwe newaakubadde muwala waabwe. Bo bokka be nandiwonyezza olw’obutuukirivu bwabwe, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
loba oNowa, uDaniyeli, loJobe bebephakathi kwalo, kuphila kwami, itsho iNkosi uJehova, bebengayikukhulula indodana loba indodakazi; bona bebezakhulula umphefumulo wabo wodwa ngokulunga kwabo.
21 “Kubanga bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti, Kiriba kitya bwe ndiweereza ebibonerezo byange ebina: ekitala n’ekyeya n’ensolo enkambwe ez’omu nsiko ne kawumpuli, ku Yerusaalemi, okutta abantu baamu n’ensolo zaabwe!
Ngoba itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Kakhulu kangakanani lapho ngithuma izahlulelo zami ezine ezimbi phezu kweJerusalema, inkemba, lendlala, lesilo esibi, lomatshayabhuqe wesifo, ukuze ngiqume ngisuse kiyo umuntu lenyamazana.
22 Naye ate nga walibaawo abamu abaliwona, abaana aboobulenzi n’aboobuwala abaliggibwamu. Balijja gy’oli, era bw’oliraba enneeyisa yaabwe n’ebikolwa byabwe, olikkiriza akabi ke ndeese ku Yerusaalemi, buli kabi ke mmuleeseeko.
Kodwa khangela, kuzasala kiyo abaphephileyo abazakhutshwa, amadodana lamadodakazi; khangela, bazaphuma besiza kini, libone indlela yabo lezenzo zabo; njalo lizaduduzwa mayelana lokubi engikulethe phezu kweJerusalema, mayelana lakho konke engikulethe phezu kwayo.
23 Bw’oliraba enneeyisa yaabwe n’ebikolwa byabwe olikkiriza nga sirina kye nkoze mu Yerusaalemi awatali nsonga, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.”
Ngokunjalo bazaliduduza nxa libona indlela yabo lezenzo zabo; njalo lizakwazi ukuthi kangikwenzanga ngaphandle kwesizatho, konke engikwenzileyo phakathi kwayo, itsho iNkosi uJehova.
