Ezeekyeri 24
1 Awo olwatuuka mu mwaka ogw’omwenda, mu mwezi ogw’ekkumi ku lunaku olw’ekkumi, ekigambo kya Mukama Katonda ne kinzijira n’aŋŋamba nti,
Ilizwi leNkosi laselifika kimi, ngomnyaka wesificamunwemunye, ngenyanga yetshumi, ngolwetshumi lwenyanga, lisithi:
2 “Omwana w’omuntu wandiika ennaku z’omwezi eza leero, kubanga kabaka w’e Babulooni azingizza Yerusaalemi olwa leero.
Ndodana yomuntu, zibhalele ibizo losuku, lwalona lolusuku; inkosi yeBhabhiloni yazimisa ukumelana leJerusalema ngalona lolusuku.
3 Gerera ennyumba eyo enjeemu olugero obagambe nti, ‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti, “‘Muteeke entamu ku kyoto, musseemu amazzi.
Njalo tshono umfanekiso kuyo indlu evukelayo uthi kubo: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Beka imbiza, ibeke, futhi uthele amanzi kuyo,
4 Mugiteekemu ebifi eby’ennyama, ebifi byonna ebirungi, ekisambi n’omukono. Mugijjuze n’amagumba agasinga obulungi,
ubuthele iziqa zayo kiyo, zonke iziqa ezinhle, umlenze lomkhono, uyigcwalise ngekhethelo lamathambo.
5 mulonde endiga esinga obulungi okuva mu kisibo, Oteeke ebisiki wansi w’entamu, mweseze ebigirimu, era ofumbe n’amagumba agalimu.
Thatha ikhethelo lomhlambi, ubuthelele lamathambo ngaphansi kwayo, kwenze kubile kuhle, kuphekwe lamathambo awo phakathi kwayo.
6 “‘Kubanga bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti, “‘Zikusanze ggwe ekibuga ekiyiwa omusaayi, ggwe entamu eriko enziro, eteereddwamu ebintu ebitaaveemu. Gyamu ekifi kimu kimu awatali kukuba kalulu.
Ngakho itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Maye kuwo umuzi wegazi, imbiza omengulo wayo uphakathi kwayo, lomengulo wayo kawuphumanga kuyo! Khupha isiqa ngesiqa, inkatho kayingaweli kuyo.
7 “‘Omusaayi gwe yayiwa guli wakati mu ye, yaguyiwa ku lwazi olwereere; teyaguyiwa wansi enfuufu ereme okugubikka.
Ngoba igazi lawo liphakathi kwawo, ulibeke edwaleni elize, kawulithululelanga phezu komhlabathi ukuligqibela ngenhlabathi.
8 Okusiikula ekiruyi kyange nsobole okuwalana eggwanga n’ateeka omusaayi gwe ku lwazi olwereere, guleme okubikkibwako.
Ukuze ngivuse intukuthelo, ukuze ngiphindisele impindiselo, ngibekile igazi lawo edwaleni elize, ukuze lingagqitshelwa.
9 “‘Mukama Katonda kyava ayogera nti, “‘Zikusanze ggwe ekibuga ekiyiwa omusaayi! Nange ndituuma enku nnyingi ddala.
Ngakho itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Maye kuwo umuzi wegazi! Lami ngizakwenza ibonda libe likhulu.
10 Mutuume ebisiki, mukume omuliro, ennyama mugifumbe bulungi, mugiteekemu ebirungo, n’amagumba gasiriire.
Yandisa izinkuni, uphembe umlilo, uqede inyama, uxubanise izinongo, lamathambo atshiswe.
11 Oluvannyuma muddire entamu enkalu mugiteeke ku masiga, okutuusa lw’eneeyokya ennyo n’ekikomo mwe yakolebwa ne kyengerera, ebitali birongoofu ebigirimu ne bisaanuuka, n’ebyateekebbwamu ne byokebwa.
Ubusuyibeka phezu kwamalahle ayo ingelalutho, ukuze kutshise kuvuthe ithusi layo, lokungcola kwayo kuncibilike phakathi kwayo, kuqedwe umengulo wayo.
12 Okufuba kwonna kubadde kwa bwereere, kubanga ebyateekebbwamu ebingi tebiggiddwamu, n’omuliro nagwo tegubyokeza.
Izidinisile ngomtshikatshika, lomengulo wayo omnengi kawuphumanga kuyo. Umengulo wayo usemlilweni.
13 “‘Kaakano mu kwonoona kwo wagwenyuka, kubanga nagezaako okukutukuza ggwe, naye ne kitasoboka kukutukuza, era tolitukuzibwa okutuusa ekiruyi kyange bwe kirikkakkana.
Kulamanyala ekungcoleni kwakho; ngoba ngikuhlambulule, kodwa kawuhlambulukanga, kawuyikuhlambuluka ekungcoleni kwakho futhi, ngize ngihlalise ukuthukuthela kwami phezu kwakho.
14 “‘Nze Mukama njogedde. Ekiseera kituuse okubaako ne kye nkola. Siritunula butunuzi so sirisaasira newaakubadde okwejjusa. Ndikusalira omusango nga nsinziira ku neeyisaayo ne ku bikolwa byo, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.’”
Mina Nkosi ngikhulumile; kuzafika, ngikwenze; kangiyikuyekela, kangiyikuba lesihawu, kangiyikuzisola; njengokwendlela zakho lanjengokwezenzo zakho bazakugweba, itsho iNkosi uJehova.
15 Ekigambo kya Mukama ne kinzijira n’aŋŋamba nti,
Ilizwi leNkosi lafika kimi futhi, lisithi:
16 “Omwana w’omuntu, luliba lumu oliba oli awo ne nkuggyako ekyo amaaso go kye gasinga okwegomba, naye tokungubaganga newaakubadde okukuba ebiwoobe newaakubadde okukaaba.
Ndodana yomuntu, khangela, ngizasusa kuwe isiloyiso samehlo akho ngokutshaya; kodwa ungalili, ungakhali inyembezi, futhi inyembezi zakho zingaveli.
17 Osindanga mu kasirise naye tokungubagiranga mufu. Ekiremba ku mutwe gwo okinywezanga, era osigalanga oyambadde engatto zo; tobikkanga wansi w’amaaso go wadde okulya emmere ey’omulumbe.”
Bubula, uthule, ungenzi isililo ngabafileyo, ubophe iqhiye yakho phezu kwakho, ufake amanyathela akho enyaweni zakho, ungambombozi indevu zendebe yakho yangaphezulu, ungadli isinkwa sabantu.
18 Awo ne njogera eri abantu ku makya, akawungeezi mukazi wange n’afa. Enkeera ne nkola nga bwe nalagiddwa.
Ngasengikhuluma labantu ekuseni, lakusihlwa umkami wafa. Ngasengisenza ekuseni njengokulaywa kwami.
19 Abantu ne bambuuza nti, “Bino bitegeeza ki?”
Abantu basebesithi kimi: Kawuyikusitshela yini ukuthi lezizinto ziyini kithi, ukuthi wenze nje?
20 Awo ne mbaddamu nti, “Ekigambo kya Mukama kyanzijira n’aŋŋamba nti,
Ngasengisithi kubo: Ilizwi leNkosi lafika kimi lisithi:
21 Tegeeza ennyumba ya Isirayiri nti, ‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti, nnaatera okwonoona awatukuvu wange, ekigo kye mwegulumiririzangamu, amaaso gammwe kye geegombanga, n’emitima gyammwe kye gyayagalanga, ne batabani bammwe ne bawala bammwe abaasigala emabega, balifa n’ekitala.
Tshono kuyo indlu kaIsrayeli: Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Khangela, ngizangcolisa indawo yami engcwele, udumo lwamandla enu, isiloyiso samehlo enu, lokuzwelwa ngumphefumulo wenu; njalo amadodana enu lamadodakazi enu eliwatshiyileyo azakuwa ngenkemba.
22 Mulikola nga nze bwe nkoze, so temulibikka wansi w’amaaso gammwe newaakubadde okulya emmere ey’omulumbe.
Khona lizakwenza njengoba ngenzile; kaliyikumbomboza indevu zendebe yangaphezulu, kaliyikudla isinkwa sabantu.
23 Mulisigala nga mwesibye ebiremba ku mitwe gyammwe, era mulisigala nga mwambadde engatto zammwe. Temulikuba biwoobe newaakubadde okukaaba naye muliyongobera olw’ebibi byammwe, buli muntu n’asindira munne ennaku.
Lamaqhiye enu azakuba phezu kwamakhanda enu, lamanyathela enu ezinyaweni zenu; kaliyikulila kaliyikukhala inyembezi; kodwa lizacikizeka ngenxa yeziphambeko zenu, libubule, omunye komunye.
24 Era Ezeekyeri aliba kabonero gye muli, era mulikola nga bw’akoze. Ebyo bwe biribaawo, mulimanya nga nze Mukama Katonda.’
Ngokunjalo uHezekeli uzakuba yisibonakaliso kini; lizakwenza njengakho konke akwenzileyo; lapho sekufika lokhu, lizakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi uJehova.
25 “Ate ggwe, omwana w’omuntu, olunaku lwe ndibaggyako ekigo kyabwe, n’essanyu lyabwe n’ekitiibwa kyabwe, n’okwegomba okw’amaaso gaabwe, n’okwegomba okw’emitima gyabwe, ne batabani baabwe ne bawala baabwe,
Futhi, wena ndodana yomuntu, kakuyikuba njalo yini ngalolosuku lapho engizasusa kubo inqaba yabo, intokozo yobuhle babo, isiloyiso samehlo abo, lokuphakama komphefumulo wabo, amadodana abo lamadodakazi abo,
26 ku lunaku olwo aliba awonyeewo y’alikuwa amawulire.
ngalolosuku kuzafika kuwe ophunyukileyo, ukwenza indlebe zakho zizwe?
27 Mu kiseera ekyo olyasamya akamwa ko, era olyogera eri kaawonawo so toliddayo kusirika. Era oliba kabonero gye bali, bamanye nga nze Mukama.”
Ngalolosuku umlomo wakho uzavulekela yena ophunyukileyo; njalo uzakhuluma, ungabe usaba yisimungulu; ngokunjalo uzakuba yisibonakaliso kubo; khona bazakwazi ukuthi ngiyiNkosi.
