< Ezeekyeri 39 >
1 “Omwana w’omuntu, wa obunnabbi ku Googi oyogere nti, ‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti, Nkulinako ensonga ggwe Googi, omulangira omukulu owa Meseki ne Tubali.
“But as for you, son of man, prophesy against Gog, and you shall say: Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am above you, O Gog, prince of the head of Meshech and Tubal.
2 Ndikukyusa nkukulule, era ndikuggya mu bukiikakkono obw’ewala ne nkutuma eri ensozi za Isirayiri.
And I will turn you around, and I will lead you away, and I will cause you to rise up from the parts of the north. And I will bring you over the mountains of Israel.
3 Ndiggya omutego gwo mu mukono gwo ogwa kkono; n’obusaale bwo obungi obubadde mu mukono gwo ogwa ddyo, ndibukusuuza.
And I will strike your bow in your left hand, and I will cast away your arrows from your right hand.
4 Oligwa ku nsozi za Isirayiri ggwe n’eggye lyo lyonna n’amawanga agali naawe; ndibawaayo eri ensega eza buli ngeri n’eri buli nsolo enkambwe mufuuke emmere yaazo.
You will fall upon the mountains of Israel, you and all your companies, and your peoples who are with you. I have given you over to the wild animals, to the birds, and to every flying thing, and to the beasts of the earth, in order to be devoured.
5 Muligwa ku ttale, kubanga nze nkyogedde, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
You will fall upon the face of the field. For I have spoken, says the Lord God.
6 Ndisindika omuliro ku Magogi ne ku abo ababeera mu bifo ebirimu emirembe ku lubalama lw’ennyanja; balyoke bamanye nga nze Mukama.
And I will send a fire upon Magog, and upon those who are living confidently in the islands. And they shall know that I am the Lord.
7 “‘Ndimanyisa abantu bange Isirayiri Erinnya lyange ettukuvu. Siriganya linnya lyange kuddayo kuvumibwa, era amawanga galimanya nga nze Mukama, Omutukuvu mu Isirayiri.
And I will make known my holy name in the midst of my people, Israel, and my holy name will no longer be defiled. And the Gentiles shall know that I am the Lord, the Holy One of Israel.
8 Ekiseera kyakyo kituuse era kirituukirira, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda. Luno lwe lunaku lwe nayogerako.
Behold, it approaches, and it is done, says the Lord God. This is the day, about which I have spoken.
9 “‘Abo ababeera mu bibuga bya Isirayiri balifuluma ne bakozesa ebyokulwanyisa ng’enku era balibikumako omuliro, engabo entono n’engabo ennene, emitego n’obusaale n’ebiti ebinene n’amafumu. Balibikozesa ng’enku okumala emyaka musanvu.
And the inhabitants from the cities of Israel will go forth, and they will kindle and burn the weapons, the shields and the spears, the bows and the arrows, and the staff and the lance. And they will kindle fires with them for seven years.
10 Tekiribeetaagisa kutyaba nku ku ttale so tebalitema nku mu bibira, kubanga ebyokulwanyisa bye balikozesa ng’enku. Balinyaga abo abaabanyaga, ne babba abo abaababba, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
And they will not carry wood from the countryside, and they will not cut from the forests. For they will kindle the weapons with fire. And they will prey upon those who had preyed upon them, and they will plunder those who had plundered them, says the Lord God.
11 “‘Ku lunaku olwo ndiwa Googi ekifo eky’okuziikamu mu Isirayiri mu kiwonvu ky’abatambuze ku luuyi olw’ebuvanjuba ku Nnyanja ey’Omunnyo. Kiriziba ekkubo ly’abatambuze, kubanga Googi n’enkuyanja y’abantu be baliziikibwa eyo. Era kiriyitibwa ekiwonvu kya Kamonugoogi.
And this shall be in that day: I will give Gog a renowned place as a sepulcher in Israel, the valley of the wayfarers to the east of the sea, which will cause astonishment in those who pass by. And in that place, they will bury Gog and all his multitude, and it will be called the valley of the multitude of Gog.
12 “‘Ennyumba ya Isirayiri balimala emyezi musanvu nga babaziika, okusobola okutukuza ensi.
And the house of Israel will bury them, so that they may cleanse the land, for seven months.
13 Abantu bonna ab’omu nsi balibaziika, era luliba lunaku lwa kujjukiranga era lwe lunaku lwe ndigulumizibwa, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
Then all the people of the earth will bury them, and this shall be for them a renowned day, on which I have been glorified, says the Lord God.
14 Wanaabangawo abasajja abanaapangisibwanga okukola omulimu ogw’okutukuza ensi. Abamu ku bo banaayitanga mu nsi nga bakola omulimu ogwo, n’abalala banaaziikanga emirambo gy’abo egirisigala kungulu. “‘Oluvannyuma olw’emyezi omusanvu balitandika okunoonya abaafa.
And they shall appoint men to continually examine the earth, so that they may seek out and bury those who have remained on the surface of the earth, so that they may cleanse it. Then, after seven months, they will begin to seek.
15 Bwe baliba nga bayita mu nsi, omu n’alaba eggumba ly’omuntu, aliteeka akabonero mu kifo ekyo, okutuusa abaziika bwe baliba bayita ne balaba akabonero ne baliziika mu kiwonvu kya Kamonugoogi.
And they will go around, traveling the earth. And when they will have seen the bone of a man, they will station a marker beside it, until the undertakers may bury it in the valley of the multitude of Gog.
16 (Era ne mu kifo ekyo eribaayo ekibuga ekiyitibwa Kamona). Bwe batyo bwe balitukuza ensi.’
And the name of the city will be: the Multitude. And they shall cleanse the earth.
17 “Omwana w’omuntu, bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti, Koowoola buli kika ky’ennyonyi n’ebisolo byonna ebikambwe obigambe nti, ‘Mukuŋŋaane, mujje okuva mu njuyi zonna eri ssaddaaka gye mbateekeddeteekedde, ssaddaaka ennene ku nsozi za Isirayiri, mulye ennyama munywe n’omusaayi.
As for you, then, son of man, thus says the Lord God: Say to every flying thing, and to all the birds, and to all the beasts of the field: Assemble! Hurry! Rush together from every side to my victim, which I have immolated for you, a great victim upon the mountains of Israel, so that you may consume flesh, and drink blood!
18 Mulirya ennyama ey’abalwanyi ab’amaanyi, era mulinywa omusaayi gw’abalangira ab’ensi, ng’abanywa ogw’endiga ennume n’obuliga obuto, ogw’embuzi n’ente ziseddume, zonna ensava ez’e Basani.
You shall eat the flesh of the powerful, and you shall drink the blood of the princes of the earth, of rams and lambs and he-goats and bulls, and of fattened birds and all that is fat.
19 Mulirya amasavu ne mukkuta, ne munywa omusaayi ne mutamiira ku ssaddaaka yange gye mbategekera.
And you shall consume the fat unto satiation, and you shall drink the blood unto inebriation, from the victim that I will immolate for you.
20 Ku mmeeza yange mulirya embalaasi n’abazeebagala, wamu n’abalwanyi ab’amaanyi n’abasajja abaserikale aba buli kika,’ bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
And you shall be satiated, upon my table, from horses and powerful horsemen, and from all the men of war, says the Lord God.
21 “Ndyoleka ekitiibwa kyange mu mawanga, era amawanga gonna galiraba ekibonerezo kye ndikuwa, nga n’omukono gwange gubateekeddwaako.
And I will set my glory among the Gentiles. And all the nations shall see my judgment, which I have accomplished, and my hand, which I have laid upon them.
22 Okuva ku lunaku olwo, ennyumba ya Isirayiri balimanya nga nze Mukama Katonda waabwe.
And the house of Israel shall know that I am the Lord, their God, from that day and thereafter.
23 N’amawanga galimanya ng’abantu ba Isirayiri balitwalibwa mu buwaŋŋanguse olw’ebibi byabwe, kubanga tebaali beesigwa gye ndi. Kyenava mbakweka amaaso gange ne mbawaayo mu mukono gw’abalabe baabwe, bonna ne battibwa ekitala.
And the Gentiles shall know that the house of Israel was taken captive because of their own iniquity, because they abandoned me. And so I concealed my face from them, and I delivered them into the hands of their enemies, and they all fell by the sword.
24 Nababonereza ng’obutali butuukirivu bwabwe n’ebikolwa byabwe bwe byali, ne mbakisa amaaso gange.
I have acted toward them in accord with their uncleanness and wickedness, and so I concealed my face from them.
25 “Noolwekyo Mukama Katonda ayogera nti, Ndikomyawo Yakobo okuva mu buwaŋŋanguse, era ndikwatirwa ekisa ennyumba ya Isirayiri yonna, era ndirwanirira erinnya lyange ettukuvu.
Because of this, thus says the Lord God: Now I will lead back the captivity of Jacob, and I will take pity upon the entire house of Israel. And I will act with zeal on behalf of my holy name.
26 Balyerabira okuswazibwa kwabwe, n’obutali bwesigwa bwe bandaga, bwe baabeera mu nsi yaabwe emirembe, nga tebaliiko abatiisa.
And they shall bear their shame and all their transgression, by which they betrayed me, though they were living in their own land confidently, dreading no one.
27 Bwe ndibakomyawo okuva mu mawanga, nga mbakuŋŋaanyizza okuva mu nsi ez’abalabe baabwe, ndyoleka obutukuvu bwange mu bo eri amawanga mangi.
And I will lead them back from among the peoples, and I will gather them together from the lands of their enemies, and I will be sanctified in them, in the sight of the many nations.
28 Olwo balimanya nga nze Mukama Katonda, kubanga nabasindika mu buwaŋŋanguse mu mawanga, ate ne mbakuŋŋaanya eri ensi yaabwe, ne sirekaayo n’omu.
And they shall know that I am the Lord, their God, because I carried them away to the nations, and I gathered them upon their own land, and I did not abandon any of them there.
29 Siribakisa maaso gange nate, bwe ndifuka Omwoyo wange ku nnyumba ya Isirayiri, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.”
And I will no longer conceal my face from them, for I have poured out my Spirit upon the entire house of Israel, says the Lord God.”
