Ezeekyeri 30
1 Awo ekigambo kya Mukama Katonda ne kinzijira n’aŋŋamba nti,
The LORD’s word came again to me, saying,
2 “Omwana w’omuntu, wa obunnabbi oyogere nti: ‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti, “‘Mwekaabireko mwogere nti, “Zibasanze ku lunaku olwo”
“Son of man, prophesy, and say, ‘The Lord GOD says: “Wail, ‘Alas for the day!’
3 kubanga olunaku luli kumpi, olunaku lwa Mukama luli kumpi, olunaku olw’ebire eri bannaggwanga.
For the day is near, even the LORD’s day is near. It will be a day of clouds, a time of the nations.
4 Ekitala kirirumba Misiri, n’ennaku eribeera mu Buwesiyopya. Bwe balifiira mu Misiri, obugagga bwe bulitwalibwa n’emisingi gyayo girimenyebwa.’
A sword will come on Egypt, and anguish will be in Ethiopia, when the slain fall in Egypt. They take away her multitude, and her foundations are broken down.
5 Obuwesiyopya, ne Puuti, ne Luudi ne Buwalabu yonna, ne Kubu n’abantu bonna ab’ensi ey’endagaano balittibwa ekitala awamu ne Misiri.
“‘“Ethiopia, Put, Lud, all the mixed people, Cub, and the children of the land that is allied with them, will fall with them by the sword.”
6 “‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti, “‘Abawagira Misiri baligwa, n’amaanyi ge yeewaana nago galimuggwa. Okuva ku mulongooti ogw’e Sevene baligwa n’ekitala, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
“‘The LORD says: “They also who uphold Egypt will fall. The pride of her power will come down. They will fall by the sword in it from the tower of Seveneh,” says the Lord GOD.
7 Balirekebwawo wakati mu nsi endala ezalekebwawo, n’ebibuga byabwe biribeera ebimu ku ebyo ebyasaanawo.
“They will be desolate in the middle of the countries that are desolate. Her cities will be among the cities that are wasted.
8 Olwo balimanya nga nze Mukama bwe ndikuma ku Misiri omuliro, n’ababeezi baayo bonna balibetentebwa.
They will know that I am the LORD when I have set a fire in Egypt, and all her helpers are destroyed.
9 “‘Ku lunaku olwo ndiweereza ababaka mu byombo okutiisatiisa Obuwesiyopya buve mu bugayaavu bwabwo. Entiisa eribakwata ku lunaku Misiri lwe linakuwala, kubanga entiisa erina okujja.
“‘“In that day messengers will go out from before me in ships to make the careless Ethiopians afraid. There will be anguish on them, as in the day of Egypt; for, behold, it comes.”
10 “‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti, “‘Ndimalawo ebibinja by’Abamisiri nga nkozesa omukono gwa Nebukadduneeza kabaka w’e Babulooni.
“‘The Lord GOD says: “I will also make the multitude of Egypt to cease, by the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon.
11 Ye n’eggye lye, ensi esinga okuba enkambwe mu mawanga, balireetebwa okuzikiriza ensi. Baligyayo ebitala byabwe ne bajjuza ensi ey’e Misiri emirambo.
He and his people with him, the terrible of the nations, will be brought in to destroy the land. They will draw their swords against Egypt, and fill the land with the slain.
12 Ndikaza emigga gya Kiyira, ne ntunda ensi eri abantu ababi; nga nkozesa bannaggwanga, ndizikiriza ensi na buli kintu ekigirimu. Nze Mukama nkyogedde.
I will make the rivers dry, and will sell the land into the hand of evil men. I will make the land desolate, and all that is therein, by the hand of foreigners. I, the LORD, have spoken it.”
13 “‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti, “‘Ndizikiriza bakatonda baabwe ne nzikiriza bakatonda abakole n’emikono mu Noofu. Temulibaamu mulangira mu nsi ey’e Misiri nate, era ensi yonna ndigireetako entiisa.
“‘The Lord GOD says: “I will also destroy the idols, and I will cause the images to cease from Memphis. There will be no more a prince from the land of Egypt. I will put a fear in the land of Egypt.
14 Ndifuula Pasulo okuba amatongo, ne Zowani ndikikumako omuliro ne mbonereza n’ab’omu No.
I will make Pathros desolate, and will set a fire in Zoan, and will execute judgments on No.
15 Ndifuka ekiruyi kyange ku Sini, ekigo kya Misiri eky’amaanyi, era ndimalawo n’ebibinja bya No.
I will pour my wrath on Sin, the stronghold of Egypt. I will cut off the multitude of No.
16 Ndikuma omuliro ku Misiri, ne Sini baliba mu bubalagaze bungi, ne No balitwalibwa omuyaga, ne Noofu baliba mu kubonaabona okw’olubeerera.
I will set a fire in Egypt Sin will be in great anguish. No will be broken up. Memphis will have adversaries in the daytime.
17 Abavubuka ab’e Oni n’ab’e Pibesesi baligwa n’ekitala, n’ebibuga biriwambibwa.
The young men of Aven and of Pibeseth will fall by the sword. They will go into captivity.
18 Enzikiza eriba ku Tapaneese emisana, bwe ndimenya ekikoligo kya Misiri, era n’amaanyi ge yeewaana nago galimuggwaamu. Alibikkibwa n’ebire era n’ebyalo bye biriwambibwa.
At Tehaphnehes also the day will withdraw itself, when I break the yokes of Egypt there. The pride of her power will cease in her. As for her, a cloud will cover her, and her daughters will go into captivity.
19 Bwe ntyo bwe ndibonereza Misiri, bategeere nga nze Mukama.’”
Thus I will execute judgments on Egypt. Then they will know that I am the LORD.”’”
20 Awo mu mwaka ogw’ekkumi n’ogumu, mu mwezi ogw’olubereberye ku lunaku olw’omusanvu, ekigambo kya Mukama ne kinzijira n’aŋŋamba nti,
In the eleventh year, in the first month, in the seventh day of the month, the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
21 “Omwana w’omuntu, mmenye omukono gwa Falaawo, ye kabaka w’e Misiri, era laba tegusibiddwa okusiigako eddagala, n’okugussaako ekiwero okugusiba, guleme okufuna amaanyi okukwata ekitala.
“Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt. Behold, it has not been bound up, to apply medicines, to put a bandage to bind it, that it may become strong to hold the sword.
22 Mukama Katonda kyava ayogera nti, Nnina ensonga ne Falaawo, ye kabaka w’e Misiri, era ndimenya emikono gye, omulamu ogw’amaanyi n’ogwo ogwamenyekako, ne nsuula ekitala okuva mu mukono gwe.
Therefore the Lord GOD says: ‘Behold, I am against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and will break his arms, the strong arm, and that which was broken. I will cause the sword to fall out of his hand.
23 Ndisaasaanya Abamisiri mu mawanga ne mu nsi ennyingi.
I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.
24 Ndinyweza emikono gya kabaka w’e Babulooni ne nteeka ekitala mu mukono gwe, naye ndimenya emikono gya Falaawo, era alisindira mu maaso ga kabaka w’e Babulooni, ng’omuntu afumitiddwa anaatera okufa.
I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and put my sword in his hand; but I will break the arms of Pharaoh, and he will groan before the king of Babylon with the groaning of a mortally wounded man.
25 Ndinyweza emikono gya kabaka w’e Babulooni, naye emikono gya Falaawo giriremala, balyoke bamanye nga nze Mukama. Nditeeka ekitala mu mikono gya kabaka w’e Babulooni, n’akigololera ku nsi y’e Misiri.
I will hold up the arms of the king of Babylon, but the arms of Pharaoh will fall down. Then they will know that I am the LORD when I put my sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he stretches it out on the land of Egypt.
26 Ndibunya Abamisiri mu mawanga ne mbasaasaanya ne mu nsi yonna, era balimanya nga nze Mukama.”
I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations and disperse them through the countries. Then they will know that I am the LORD.’”
