< Ezeekyeri 32 >
1 Awo mu mwaka ogw’ekkumi n’ebiri, mu mwezi ogw’ekkumi n’ebiri ku lunaku olw’olubereberye, ekigambo kya Mukama ne kinzijira n’aŋŋamba nti,
And it happened that, in the twelfth year, in the twelfth month, on the first of the month, the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
2 “Omwana w’omuntu, tandika okukungubagira Falaawo, ye kabaka w’e Misiri, omutegeeze nti: “‘Oli ng’empologoma mu mawanga, ng’ogusota wakati mu nnyanja, ng’owaguza mu migga gyo, era ng’otabangula amazzi, n’osiikuula n’emigga.
“Son of man, take up a lamentation over Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, and you shall say to him: You are like the lion of the Gentiles, and like the dragon that is in the sea. And you brandished a horn among your rivers, and you disturbed the waters with your feet, and you trampled upon their rivers.
3 “‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti, “‘Ndikusuulako akatimba kange, ne nkusindikira ekibiina ky’abantu ekinene, era balikuvuba n’akatimba kange.
Because of this, thus says the Lord God: I will spread my net over you, with the multitude of many peoples, and I will draw you into my dragnet.
4 Ndikusuula ku lukalu, ne nkuleka ku ttale, era ebinyonyi byonna eby’omu bbanga birikukkako, n’ensolo enkambwe zonna ez’omu nsi zirikulya ne zikkusibwa.
And I will throw you upon the land. I will cast you upon the surface of the field. And I will cause all the birds of the air to live upon you. And I will satiate the beasts of the entire earth with you.
5 Ndisaasaanya ennyama ey’omubiri gwo ku nsozi, era ndijjuza ebiwonvu amagumba go.
And I will place your flesh upon the mountains. And I will fill up your hills with your decaying flesh.
6 Nditotobaza ensi n’omusaayi gwo okutuukira ddala ku nsozi, era ndijjuza zonna ennyama ey’omubiri gwo.
And I will irrigate the earth with your rotting blood upon the mountains. And the valleys will be filled with you.
7 Bwe ndikusaanyaawo, ndibikka eggulu ne nfuula emmunyeenye zaakwo okubaako ekizikiza;
And I will cover heaven, when you will have been extinguished. And I will cause its stars to grow dark. I will shroud the sun with gloom, and the moon will not give her light.
8 Ndibikka omusana n’ekire, era n’omwezi tegulireeta kitangaala kyagwo. Ebitangaala byonna eby’omu ggulu, ndibifuula enzikiza; era n’ensi yo yonna ndigireetako enzikiza, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
I will cause all the lights of heaven to grieve over you. And I will bring darkness upon your land, says the Lord God, when your wounded will have fallen in the midst of the land, says the Lord God.
9 Ndyeraliikiriza emitima gy’amawanga amangi, bwe ndikuzikiriza mu mawanga, ne mu nsi z’otomanyangako.
And I will provoke the heart of many peoples to anger, when I will have led in your destruction among the Gentiles, over the lands that you have not known.
10 Amawanga mangi galijjula entiisa era bakabaka baabwe balisasamala, ng’obagalulira ekitala mu maaso gaabwe. Ku lunaku olw’okugwa kwo, buli omu ku bo alikankana, era buli muntu aligezaako okuwonya obulamu bwe.
And I will cause many peoples to be stupefied over you. And their kings will be afraid, with great horror, over you, when my sword will begin to fly above their faces. And suddenly, they will be struck with astonishment, each one concerning his own life, on the day of their ruination.
11 “‘Kubanga bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti, “‘Ekitala kya kabaka w’e Babulooni kirikutabaala.
For thus says the Lord God: The sword of the king of Babylon will come to you.
12 Nditta enkuyanja y’abantu bo n’ekitala eky’abasajja abalwanyi abazira, abasingirayo ddala obukambwe mu mawanga gonna. Balimalawo amalala ga Misiri, n’enkuyanja y’abantu be bonna balizikirizibwa.
By the swords of the strong, I will cast down your multitude. All these nations are invincible, and they will lay waste to the arrogance of Egypt, and so its multitude will be destroyed.
13 Ndizikiriza amagana ge gonna ag’ente okuva awali amazzi amangi, era tewaliba n’omu alirinnyayo okubatabangula newaakubadde ente okulinnyirirayo.
And I will perish all its cattle, which were above the many waters. And the foot of man will no longer disturb them, and the hoof of cattle will no longer trouble them.
14 N’oluvannyuma nditeesa amazzi ge, n’enzizi ze ne nzifuula ng’amafuta, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
Then I will cause their waters to be very pure, and their rivers to be like oil, says the Lord God,
15 Bwe ndizisa ensi ey’e Misiri, ne ngiggyamu buli kantu akalimu, ne nzita bonna ababeeramu, balimanya nga nze Mukama.’
when I will have set the land of Egypt in desolation. And the land will be deprived of her plenitude, when I will have struck all its inhabitants. And they shall know that I am the Lord.
16 “Weewaawo kuno kwe kukungubaga kwe balikungubaga. Abawala bannaggwanga balikungubagira Misiri n’enkuyanja y’abantu be bonna,” bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
This is the lamentation. And they shall lament it. The daughters of the Gentiles shall lament it. They shall lament it over Egypt and over its multitude, says the Lord God.”
17 Mu mwaka ogw’ekkumi n’ebiri, ku lunaku olw’ekkumi n’ettaano mu mwezi ogwo, ekigambo kya Mukama ne kinzijira n’aŋŋamba nti,
And it happened that, in the twelfth year, on the fifteenth of the month, the word of the Lord came to me saying:
18 “Omwana w’omuntu, kaabirako ku nkuyanja y’abantu b’e Misiri, obasindike emagombe ye n’abawala bannaggwanga abaayatiikirira, n’abo abakka mu bunnya.
“Son of man, sing mournfully over the multitude of Egypt. And cast her down, both her and the daughters of the robust nations, to the lowest part of the earth, with those who descend into the pit.
19 Babuuze nti, ‘Olowooza gw’osinga okwagalibwa? Ggenda oteekebwe n’abatali bakomole.’
Whom do you exceed in beauty? Descend and sleep with the uncircumcised!
20 Baligwa mu abo abattiddwa ekitala, era n’ekitala kisowoddwa, leka atwalibwe n’enkuyanja y’abantu be.
They will fall by the sword in the midst of the slain. The sword has been given. They have dragged her down, with all her people.
21 Okuva emagombe abakulembeze ab’amaanyi balyogera ku Misiri ne be yeekobaana nabo nti, ‘baserengese, era bagalamidde awali abatali bakomole, abattibwa n’ekitala.’ (Sheol )
The most powerful among the strong will speak to him from the midst of hell, those who descended with his helpers and who went to sleep uncircumcised, slain by the sword. (Sheol )
22 “Asuli ali eyo n’eggye lye lyonna; yeetooloddwa amalaalo ag’abattibwa n’ekitala.
Assur is in that place, with all his multitude. Their graves are all around him: all of the slain and those who fell by the sword.
23 Amalaalo ge gali wansi mu bunnya, n’emirambo gy’eggye lye gyetoolodde amalaalo ge. Abo bonna abaaleeta entiisa mu nsi ey’abalamu battiddwa, bagudde n’ekitala.
Their graves have been placed in the lowest parts of the pit. And his multitude was stationed on all sides of his grave: all of the slain, and those who fell by the sword, who formerly spread terror in the land of the living.
24 “Eramu naye ali eyo, n’enkuyanja y’abantu be bonna beetoolodde amalaalo ge. Bonna baafa, battibwa n’ekitala. Bonna abaaleeta entiisa mu nsi ey’abalamu bakka emagombe nga si bakomole, be bagenda wansi mu bunnya nga balina n’ensonyi.
Elam is in that place, with all his multitude, on all sides of his grave, all those who were slain or who fell by the sword, who descended uncircumcised to the lowest part of the earth, who caused their terror in the land of the living. And they have borne their disgrace, with those who descend into the pit.
25 Bamwalidde ekitanda wakati mu battibwa n’enkuyanja y’abantu be bonna okwetooloola amalaalo ge. Bonna tebaali bakomole, era battibwa n’ekitala kubanga baatiisatiisanga ensi ey’abalamu. Bajudde ensonyi wamu n’abo abakka emagombe, era bagalamidde wakati mu abo abattiddwa.
They have appointed him a place to lie among all his people, in the midst of the slain. Their graves are all around him. All these are uncircumcised and were slain by the sword. For they spread their terror in the land of the living, and they have borne their disgrace, with those who descend into the pit. They have been stationed in the midst of the slain.
26 “Meseki ne Tubali nabo gye bali n’enkuyanja y’abantu baabwe era beetoolodde amalaalo gaabwe. Bonna tebaali bakomole, era battibwa n’ekitala kubanga baatiisatiisanga ensi ey’abalamu.
Meshech and Tubal are in that place, with all their multitude. Their graves are all around him: all these are uncircumcised, and they were slain and fell by the sword. For they spread their terror in the land of the living.
27 Tebaliziikibwa ng’abakungu, naye baliziikibwa ng’abasajja abalwanyi abazira abatali bakomole, abaaserengeta emagombe n’ebyokulwanyisa byabwe, abaatikkibwa ebitala byabwe ku mitwe gyabwe. Obutali butuukirivu bwabwe bwali ku magumba gaabwe kubanga baaleeta entiisa eri abasajja ab’amaanyi mu nsi ey’abalamu. (Sheol )
But they shall not sleep with the strong, and with those who also fell uncircumcised, who descended to hell with their weapons, and who placed their swords under their heads, while their iniquities were in their bones. For they were the terror of the strong in the land of the living. (Sheol )
28 “Naawe ggwe Falaawo, olimenyebwa era olifiira wamu n’abatali bakomole, abattibwa n’ekitala.
Therefore, you also will be broken in the midst of the uncircumcised, and you will sleep with those who were slain by the sword.
29 “Edomu naye ali eyo, bakabaka be n’abalangira be, newaakubadde nga baamaanyi, emirambo gyabwe gigalamidde n’egya bali abattibwa n’ekitala. Bagalamidde n’abatali bakomole mu bunnya.
Idumea is in that place, with her kings and all her commanders, who with their army have been given to those who were slain by the sword. And they have slept with the uncircumcised and with those who descend into the pit.
30 “Abalangira bonna ab’omu bukiikakkono n’Abasidoni bonna nabo bali eyo; baaziikibwa mu nsonyi n’abattibwa newaakubadde nga baakola eby’entiisa nga be balina obuyinza. Bagalamidde nga si bakomole wamu n’abattibwa n’ekitala, nga balina ensonyi n’abo abakka emagombe.
All the leaders of the north are in that place, with all the hunters, who were brought down with the slain, fearful and confounded in their strength, who have gone to sleep uncircumcised, with those who were slain by the sword. And they have borne their disgrace, with those who descend into the pit.
31 “Era Falaawo, bw’alibalaba, alyekubagiza olw’eggye lye eryattibwa n’ekitala, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
Pharaoh saw them, and he was consoled over all his multitude, which was slain by the sword, even Pharaoh and all his army, says the Lord God.
32 Newaakubadde nga namukozesa okutiisatiisa ensi ey’abalamu Falaawo n’enkuyanja y’abantu be baligalamira mu batali bakomole, n’abattibwa n’ekitala, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.”
For I have spread my terror in the land of the living, and he has gone to sleep in the midst of the uncircumcised, with those who were slain by the sword, even Pharaoh and all his multitude, says the Lord God.”
