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 upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will watch to see what he will say unto me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved.
2 Awo Mukama n’anziramu n’ayogera nti, “Wandiika okwolesebwa okwo ku bipande. Kuwandiike bulungi ate omubaka gwe banaatuma, akutwale bunnambiro.
And Yhwh answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tablets, that he may run 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 end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.
4 “Laba oyo ow’emmeeme eteri nnongoofu wa kugwa, naye omutuukirivu aliba mulamu olw’obwesigwa bwe.”
Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith.
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 h7585)
Yea also, because he transgresseth by wine, he is a proud man, neither keepeth at home, who enlargeth his desire as hell, and is as death, and cannot be satisfied, but gathereth unto him all nations, and heapeth unto him all people: (Sheol h7585)
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 up a parable against him, and a taunting proverb against him, and say, Woe to him that increaseth that which is not his! how long? and to him that ladeth himself with thick clay!
7 Abakubanja tebalikuyimukirako nga tomanyiridde, era tebalizuukuka ne bakweraliikiriza? Oliba togudde mu mikono gyabwe?
Shall they not rise up suddenly that shall bite thee, and awake that shall vex thee, and thou shalt be for booties unto them?
8 Kubanga onyaze amawanga mangi, abantu abasigaddewo balikunyaga; Oyiye omusaayi gw’abantu, n’oyonoona ensi n’ebibuga n’abantu bonna ababibeeramu.”
Because thou hast spoiled many nations, all the remnant of the people shall spoil thee; because of men’s blood, and for the violence of the land, of the city, and of all that dwell therein.
9 Zimusanze oyo azimbira amaka ge ku bikolwa ebibi, azimba ekisu kye waggulu, okwekuuma obutatuukwako kabi!
Woe to him that coveteth an evil covetousness to his house, that he may set his nest on high, that he may be delivered from the power of evil!
10 Wategeka okuzikirira kw’abantu bangi, n’oswaza ennyumba yo ne weefiiriza obulamu bwo.
Thou hast consulted shame to thy house by cutting off many people, and hast sinned against thy soul.
11 Amayinja g’oku bbugwe galikaaba, n’emikiikiro gy’ebibajje girikyasanguza.
For the stone shall cry out of the wall, and the beam out of the timber shall answer it.
12 Zimusanze oyo azimba ekibuga n’omusaayi, atandika ekibuga n’obutali butuukirivu.
Woe to him that buildeth a town with blood, and stablisheth a city by iniquity!
13 Tekyategekebwa Mukama ow’Eggye nti okutegana kw’abantu nku buku za muliro, n’amawanga geemalamu ensa olw’ebintu ebitaliimu?
Behold, is it not of Yhwh of Armies that the people shall labour in the very fire, and the people shall weary themselves for very vanity?
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 Yhwh, as the waters cover the sea.
15 Zimusanze oyo awa baliraanwa be ekitamiiza n’akibafukira okuva mu kita n’abawa banywe okutuusa lwe batamiira asobole okutunuulira ensonyi zaabwe!
Woe unto him that giveth his neighbour drink, that puttest thy bottle to him, and makest him drunken also, that thou mayest look on their nakedness!
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 glory: drink thou also, and let thy foreskin be uncovered: the cup of Yhwh's right hand shall be turned unto thee, and shameful spewing shall be on 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 violence of Lebanon shall cover thee, and the spoil of beasts, which made them afraid, because of men’s blood, and for the violence of the land, of the city, and of 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 graven image that the maker thereof hath graven it; the molten image, and a teacher of lies, that the maker of his work trusteth therein, to make dumb idols?
19 Zimusanze oyo agamba omuti nti, ‘Lamuka;’ agamba ejjinja nti, ‘Golokoka!’ Kino kisobola okuluŋŋamya? Kibikiddwa zaabu ne ffeeza, so tekiriimu bulamu n’akatono.
Woe unto him that saith to the wood, Awake; to the dumb stone, Arise, it shall teach! Behold, it is laid over with gold and silver, and there is no breath at all in the midst of it.
20 Naye Mukama ali mu yeekaalu ye entukuvu: ensi zonna zisiriikirire mu maaso ge.”
But Yhwh is in his holy temple: let all the earth keep silence before him.
