Ezeekyeri 8
1 Awo mu mwaka ogw’omukaaga, mu mwezi ogw’omukaaga ku lunaku olwokutaano, bwe nnali nga ntudde mu nnyumba yange n’abakadde ba Yuda, nga batudde mu maaso gange omukono gwa Mukama Katonda ne gunzikako.
And it was - in the year sixth in the sixth [month] on [day] five of the month I [was] sitting in house my and [the] elders of Judah [were] sitting before me and it fell on me there [the] hand of [the] Lord Yahweh.
2 Bwe natunula ne ndaba ekifaananyi ky’omuntu, okuva mu kiwato kye okukka wansi ngali ng’omuliro, n’okuva mu kiwato kye okwambuka ng’ayakaayakana ng’ekyuma ekyaka omuliro.
And I saw and there! a likeness like [the] appearance of fire [was] from [the] appearance of hips his and downwards fire and [was] from hips his and upwards like [the] appearance of brightness like [the] appearance of shining substance towards.
3 N’agolola ekyalabika ng’omukono n’akwata enviiri zange. Omwoyo n’ansitula wakati w’ensi n’eggulu mu kwolesebwa kwa Katonda n’antwala e Yerusaalemi ku mulyango ogw’oluggi olutunuulira Obukiikakkono olw’oluggya olw’omunda ogutunuulira Obukiikakkono, awaali bakatonda abalala abaleetera Katonda obuggya.
And he stretched out [the] form of a hand and he took me by [the] hair of head my and it carried me a spirit - between the earth and between the heavens and it brought me Jerusalem towards in visions of God to [the] opening of [the] gate the inner [court] which faces north-ward where [was] there [the] location of [the] idol of jealousy which provokes to jealousy.
4 Era awo we waali ekitiibwa kya Katonda wa Isirayiri, ng’okwolesebwa kwe nalaba mu kyererezi.
And there! [was] there [the] glory of [the] God of Israel like the appearance which I had seen on the plain.
5 Awo n’aŋŋamba nti, “Omwana w’omuntu, yimusa amaaso eri Obukiikakkono.” Awo ne nnyimusa amaaso gange, era laba mu mulyango ogw’Obukiikakkono ogw’oluggi lw’ekyoto ne ndaba ekifaananyi eky’obuggya.
And he said to me O son of humankind lift up please eyes your [the] direction north-ward and I lifted up eyes my [the] direction north-ward and there! from [the] north of [the] gate of the altar [the] idol of jealousy this [was] in the entrance.
6 N’aŋŋamba nti, “Omwana w’omuntu, olaba kye bakola, ebigambo eby’ekivve ennyumba ya Isirayiri byekolera wano, nga bangobera wala n’ekifo kyange ekitukuvu? Naye oliraba ebintu eby’ekivve ebisingawo.”
And he said to me O son of humankind ¿ seeing [are] you (what [are] they? *Q(K)*) doing abominations great which [the] house of Israel - [are] doing here to be far from at sanctuary my and again you will return you will see abominations great.
7 Awo n’antwala ku mulyango ogw’oluggya. Ne ndaba ekituli mu bbugwe.
And he brought me to [the] entrance of the court and I saw and there! a hole one [was] in the wall.
8 N’aŋŋamba nti, “Omwana w’omuntu, kaakano sima mu bbugwe.” Ne nsima mu bbugwe, ne ndabayo omulyango.
And he said to me O son of humankind dig please in the wall and I dug in the wall and there! an opening one.
9 Awo n’aŋŋamba nti, “Yingira olabe ebikolwa ebitali bya butuukirivu n’eby’ekivve bye bakola eyo.”
And he said to me go and see the abominations wicked which they [are] doing here.
10 Ne nnyingira ne ndaba, era ku bisenge ne ndabako ebyekulula ebya buli kika kyonna, n’ensolo ez’emizizo ne bakatonda abalala bonna ab’ennyumba ya Isirayiri.
And I went and I saw and there! every form of creeping thing and animal detestable thing and all [the] idols of [the] house of Israel [was] carved on the wall all around - all around.
11 Abakadde nsanvu ab’ennyumba ya Isirayiri baali bayimiridde mu maaso gaabyo, ne Yaazaniya mutabani wa Safani, ng’ayimiridde wakati mu bo. Buli omu ku bo yali akute ekyoterezo mu mukono gwe, ng’ekire eky’akaloosa ak’obubaane kinyooka okuva mu byo.
And seventy man from [the] elders of [the] house of Israel and Jaazaniah [the] son of Shaphan [was] standing in midst of them [were] standing before them and everyone censer his [was] in hand his and [the] fragrance of [the] cloud of incense [was] going up.
12 N’aŋŋamba nti, “Omwana w’omuntu, olabye abakadde b’ennyumba ya Isirayiri bye bakola mu nzikiza, buli omu ng’ali mu ssabo lya katonda we? Bagamba nti, ‘Mukama tatulaba, era Mukama yeerabira ensi.’”
And he said to me ¿ have you seen O son of humankind [that] which [the] elders of [the] house of Israel [are] doing in the darkness everyone in [the] rooms of carved image his for [they are] saying not Yahweh [is] seeing us he has forsaken Yahweh the land.
13 N’addamu n’aŋŋamba nti, “Oliraba ebintu eby’ekivve ebisinga n’ebyo.”
And he said to me again you will return you will see abominations great which they [are] doing.
14 Awo n’antwala ku mulyango ogw’oluggi olw’Obukiikakkono ogw’ennyumba ya Mukama, ne ndaba abakazi abatudde eyo nga bakaabira katonda waabwe Tammuzi.
And he brought me to [the] entrance of [the] gate of [the] house of Yahweh which [was] to the north towards and there! there the women [were] sitting bewailing Tammuz.
15 N’aŋŋamba nti, “Ebyo obirabye, omwana w’omuntu? Oliraba eby’ekivve ebisinga n’ebyo.”
And he said to me ¿ have you seen O son of humankind again you will return you will see abominations great more than these.
16 Awo n’antwala mu luggya olw’omunda olw’ennyumba ya Mukama, awo ku mulyango gwa yeekaalu ya Mukama wakati w’ekisasi n’ekyoto, nga waliwo abasajja ng’amakumi abiri mu bataano, nga bakubye amabega eyeekaalu ya Mukama, nga batunudde Ebuvanjuba, ne bagwa bugazi nga basinza enjuba nga batunudde Ebuvanjuba.
And he brought me to [the] court of [the] house of Yahweh inner and there! [were at] [the] entrance of [the] temple of Yahweh between the porch and between the altar about twenty and five person[s] backs their [were] to [the] temple of Yahweh and faces their [were] east-ward and they [were] bowing down east-ward to the sun.
17 N’ambuuza nti, “Ebyo obirabye, omwana w’omuntu? Kintu kitono ennyumba ya Yuda okukola ebintu eby’ekivve bye baakola wano? Kibagwanira okujjuza ensi n’ebikolwa eby’obukambwe ne bongeranga okunyiiza? Laba basembeza ettabi ku nnyindo yaabwe!
And he said to me ¿ have you seen O son of humankind ¿ is it [too] trifling for [the] house of Judah for doing the abominations which they have done here that they have filled the land violence and they have returned to provoke to anger me and there they [are] sending the branch to nose their.
18 Kyendiva mbabonereza n’obusungu; siribakwatirwa kisa newaakubadde okubasonyiwa, era ne bwe balindekaanira siribawuliriza.”
And also I I will act in rage not it will look with compassion eye my and not I will show pity and they will call out in ears my a voice great and not I will hear them.
