Ezeekyeri 2
1 N’aŋŋamba nti, “Omwana w’omuntu, yimirira njogere naawe.”
And he said vnto me, Sonne of man, stand vp vpon thy feete, and I wil speake vnto thee.
2 Awo bwe yali ng’akyayogera nange, Omwoyo nanzikako n’annyimusa, ne mpulira ng’ayogera nange.
And the Spirite entred into me, when he had spoken vnto me, and set me vpon my feete, so that I heard him that spake vnto me.
3 N’ayogera nti, “Omwana w’omuntu, nkutuma eri Abayisirayiri, eri eggwanga ejeemu eryanjeemera, era bo ne bajjajjaabwe banjeemera okuva edda n’okutuusa olunaku lwa leero.
And he said vnto me, Sonne of man, I send thee to the children of Israel, to a rebellious nation that hath rebelled against me: for they and their fathers haue rebelled against me, euen vnto this very day.
4 Abantu be nkutumamu bakakanyavu era bakozi ba bibi. Bategeeze nti, ‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti,’
For they are impudent children, and stiffe hearted: I do send thee vnto them, and thou shalt say vnto them, Thus saith the Lord God.
5 Oba banaawuliriza oba tebaawulirize, kubanga nnyumba njeemu, balimanya nga mu bo musituseemu nnabbi.
But surely they will not heare, neither in deede will they cease: for they are a rebellious house: yet shall they knowe that there hath bene a Prophet among them.
6 Kaakano ggwe omwana w’omuntu, tobatya newaakubadde ebigambo bye banaayogera, newaakubadde emyeramannyo n’amaggwa nga bikwetoolodde, era ng’obeera wakati mu njaba ez’obusagwa. Totya bigambo bye banaayogera newaakubadde okutekemuka kubanga nnyumba njeemu.
And thou sonne of man, feare them not, neither be afraide of their wordes, although rebels, and thornes be with thee, and thou remainest with scorpions: feare not their wordes, nor be afrayde at their lookes, for they are a rebellious house.
7 Oteekwa okubategeeza ebigambo byange, oba banaawuliriza oba tebaawulirize, kubanga bajeemu.
Therefore thou shalt speake my words vnto them: but surely they will not heare, neither will they in deede cease: for they are rebellious.
8 Naye ggwe omwana w’omuntu wuliriza kye nkugamba. Tojeema ng’ennyumba eyo bwe yanjeemera. Yasamya akamwa ko olye bye nkuwa.”
But thou sonne of man, heare what I say vnto thee: be not thou rebellious, like this rebellious house: open thy mouth, and eate that I giue thee.
9 Awo ne ntunula, ne ndaba omukono nga gugoloddwa gye ndi, mu gwo nga mulimu omuzingo gw’ekitabo.
And when I looked vp, beholde, an hande was sent vnto me, and loe, a roule of a booke was therein.
10 N’agwanjuluriza mu maaso gange, munda nga muwandiikibbwamu ne kungulu nga kuwandiikibbwako ebigambo eby’okukungubaga n’okukuba ebiwoobe, n’okukaaba.
And he spred it before me, and it was written within and without, and there was written therein, Lamentations, and mourning, and woe.
