< Kaabakuuku 2 >
1 Kale ndiyimirira mu kifo kyange we ntera okubeera ntunule nga ndi waggulu eyo ku ggulumu nnindirire ky’aliŋŋamba, era ne kye ndimuddamu ekikwata ku kwemulugunya kw’abantu.
I will stand vpon my watch, and set me vpon the towre, and wil looke and see what he would say vnto mee, and what I shall answere to him that rebuketh me.
2 Awo Mukama n’anziramu n’ayogera nti, “Wandiika okwolesebwa okwo ku bipande. Kuwandiike bulungi ate omubaka gwe banaatuma, akutwale bunnambiro.
And the Lord answered me, and sayde, Write the vision, and make it plaine vpon tables, that he may runne that readeth it.
3 Kubanga okwolesebwa okwo kujja mu kiseera kyakwo ekigere. Kwogera ku by’enkomerero ate si kwa bulimba. Bwe kunaaba ng’okuluddewo, mukulindirire, kujja kutuukirira, tekugya kulwa.
For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the last it shall speake, and not lie: though it tarie, waite: for it shall surely come, and shall not stay.
4 “Laba oyo ow’emmeeme eteri nnongoofu wa kugwa, naye omutuukirivu aliba mulamu olw’obwesigwa bwe.”
Beholde, he that lifteth vp himselfe, his minde is not vpright in him, but the iust shall liue by his fayth,
5 Weewaawo, omwenge mulimba guleetera omuntu amalala, ate taguwummulako. Ate olwokubanga gwa mululu ng’emagombe, mu butakkuta gufaanana okufa. Era okufaanana ng’olumbe, tegukkuta, amawanga gonna gugeekuŋŋanyizaako ne gugafuula abasibe. (Sheol )
Yea, in deede the proude man is as hee that transgresseth by wine: therefore shall he not endure, because he hath enlarged his desire as the hell, and is as death, and can not be satisfied, but gathereth vnto him all nations, and heapeth vnto him all people. (Sheol )
6 “Bano bonna si be balimugererako engero bamusekerere nga bagamba nti, “‘Zimusanze oyo eyeyongeza ebitali bibye! Oyo eyeetuumako obugagga obuva mu nguzi!’
Shall not all these take vp a parable against him, and a tanting prouerbe against him, and say, Ho, he that increaseth that which is not his? howe long? and hee that ladeth himselfe with thicke clay?
7 Abakubanja tebalikuyimukirako nga tomanyiridde, era tebalizuukuka ne bakweraliikiriza? Oliba togudde mu mikono gyabwe?
Shall they not rise vp suddenly, that shall bite thee? and awake, that shall stirre thee? and thou shalt be their praye?
8 Kubanga onyaze amawanga mangi, abantu abasigaddewo balikunyaga; Oyiye omusaayi gw’abantu, n’oyonoona ensi n’ebibuga n’abantu bonna ababibeeramu.”
Because thou hast spoyled many nations, all the remnant of the people shall spoyle thee, because of mens blood, and for the wrong done in the land, in the citie, and vnto all that dwell therein.
9 Zimusanze oyo azimbira amaka ge ku bikolwa ebibi, azimba ekisu kye waggulu, okwekuuma obutatuukwako kabi!
Ho, he that coueteth an euil couetousnesse to his house, that he may set his nest on hie, to escape from the power of euil.
10 Wategeka okuzikirira kw’abantu bangi, n’oswaza ennyumba yo ne weefiiriza obulamu bwo.
Thou hast consulted shame to thine owne house, by destroying many people, and hast sinned against thine owne soule.
11 Amayinja g’oku bbugwe galikaaba, n’emikiikiro gy’ebibajje girikyasanguza.
For the stone shall crie out of the wall, and the beame out of the timber shall answere it.
12 Zimusanze oyo azimba ekibuga n’omusaayi, atandika ekibuga n’obutali butuukirivu.
Wo vnto him that buildeth a towne with blood, and erecteth a citie by iniquitie.
13 Tekyategekebwa Mukama ow’Eggye nti okutegana kw’abantu nku buku za muliro, n’amawanga geemalamu ensa olw’ebintu ebitaliimu?
Beholde, is it not of the Lord of hostes that the people shall labour in ye very fire? the people shall euen weary themselues for very vanitie.
14 Kubanga ensi erijjula okumanya ekitiibwa kya Mukama, ng’amazzi bwe ganjaala ku nnyanja.
For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, as the waters couer the sea.
15 Zimusanze oyo awa baliraanwa be ekitamiiza n’akibafukira okuva mu kita n’abawa banywe okutuusa lwe batamiira asobole okutunuulira ensonyi zaabwe!
Wo vnto him that giueth his neighbour drinke: thou ioynest thine heate, and makest him drunken also, that thou mayest see their priuities.
16 Olijjuzibwa ensonyi mu kifo ky’ekitiibwa. Naawe olinywa n’oswala. Ekikompe eky’omu mukono gwa Mukama ogwa ddyo kirikyusibwa kidde gy’oli, n’ensonyi ez’obuwemu zisaanikire ekitiibwa kyo.
Thou art filled with shame for glorie: drinke thou also, and be made naked: the cup of the Lords right hand shall be turned vnto thee, and shamefull spuing shalbe for thy glory.
17 Ebikolwa eby’obukambwe bye watuusa ku Lebanooni, n’okutta ensolo, birikutiisa. Osse abantu n’ozikkiriza ensi n’ebibuga n’abantu ababibeeramu.
For the crueltie of Lebanon shall couer thee: so shall the spoyle of the beastes, which made them afraide, because of mens blood, and for the wrong done in the land, in the citie, and vnto all that dwell therein.
18 “Ekifaananyi ekyole kigasa ki? Anti kibajje bubazzi. Oba ekifaananyi eky’ekyuma, ekisomesa obulimba? Kubanga omuweesi yeesiga mirimu gya mikono gye nga akola ebifaananyi ebitayogera!
What profiteth the image? for the maker thereof hath made it an image, and a teacher of lies, though he that made it, trust therein, when he maketh dumme idoles.
19 Zimusanze oyo agamba omuti nti, ‘Lamuka;’ agamba ejjinja nti, ‘Golokoka!’ Kino kisobola okuluŋŋamya? Kibikiddwa zaabu ne ffeeza, so tekiriimu bulamu n’akatono.
Wo vnto him that sayth to the wood, Awake, and to the dumme stone, Rise vp, it shall teach thee: beholde, it is layde ouer with golde and siluer, and there is no breath in it.
20 Naye Mukama ali mu yeekaalu ye entukuvu: ensi zonna zisiriikirire mu maaso ge.”
But the Lord is in his holy Temple: let all the earth keepe silence before him.
