< Abaebbulaniya 4 >
1 Noolwekyo ng’ekisuubizo eky’okuyingira mu kiwummulo kye, bwe kikyaliwo, twerinde, omuntu yenna ku mmwe aleme kulabika nga takituuseemu.
Let vs feare therfore lest eny of vs forsakynge the promes of entrynge into his rest shulde seme to come behinde.
2 Kubanga naffe tubuuliddwa Enjiri, nga nabo bwe baagibuulirwa. Kyokka baalema okukkiriza ekigambo kye baawulira, era tebaalina kye baagasibwa.
For vnto vs was it declared as well as vnto them. But it proffited not them that they hearde the worde because they which hearde it coupled it not with fayth.
3 Kubanga ffe abakkiriza, ffe tuyinza okuyingira mu kiwummulo kye, nga bwe yayogera nti, “Kyennava ndayira nga nsunguwadde nti, ‘Tebaliyingira mu kiwummulo kyange.’” Omulimu gwe gwaggwa ku kutondebwa kw’ensi.
But we which have beleved do enter into his rest as contrarywyse he sayde to the other: I have sworne in my wrath they shall not enter into my rest. And that spake he verely longe after that the workes were made and the foudacio of ye worlde layde.
4 Kubanga waliwo w’ayogerera nti, “Katonda bwe yamala okukola emirimu gye gyonna n’awummulira ku lunaku olw’omusanvu.”
For he spake in a certayne place of ye seveth daye on this wyse: And god did rest ye seventh daye fro all his workes.
5 Ayongera n’agamba nti, “Tebaliyingira mu kiwummulo kyange.”
And in this place agayne: They shall not come into my rest.
6 Kyaterekerwa abamu okuyingiramu, ate ng’abo abaasooka okubuulirwa Enjiri, tebaayingira olw’obujeemu.
Seynge therfore it foloweth that some muste enter therinto and they to who it was fyrst preached entred not therin for vnbeleves sake.
7 Katonda kyeyava ateekateeka nate olunaku, n’alutuuma leero, bwe yayogerera mu Dawudi, oluvannyuma lw’ekiseera ekiwanvu nti, “Leero bwe munaawulira eddoboozi lye, Temukakanyaza mitima gyammwe.
Agayne he apoynteth in David a certayne present daye after so longe a tyme sayinge as it is rehearsed: this daye if ye heare his voyce be not harde herted.
8 Kubanga singa Yoswa yabatwala mu kifo eky’okuwummula, Katonda teyandiyogedde ku lunaku olulala olw’okuwummula.”
For if Iosue had geven them rest then wolde he not afterwarde have spoke of another daye.
9 Naye Katonda atusuubizza olunaku olwa Ssabbiiti lwe tuliwummula, newaakubadde nga terunnatuuka.
There remayneth therfore yet a rest to ye people of God.
10 Kubanga oyo ayingira mu kiwummulo kya Katonda, awummula emirimu gye nga Katonda bwe yawummula ng’amaze emirimu gye.
For he yt is is entred into his rest doth cease from his awne workes as god did from his.
11 Noolwekyo tufubenga okuyingira mu kiwummulo ekyo, omuntu yenna alemenga kugoberera ekyokulabirako ekibi eky’abajeemu.
Let vs study therfore to entre into that rest lest eny man faule after the same ensample in to vnbelefe.
12 Ekigambo kya Katonda kiramu era kikola. Kisala okusinga ekitala eky’obwogi obubiri, era kiyitamu ne kituukira ddala ku mmeeme n’omwoyo, n’ennyingo n’obusomyo, era kyawula ebirowoozo n’okufumiitiriza kw’omutima.
For the worde of god is quycke and myghty in operacion and sharper then eny two edged swearde: and entreth through even vnto the dividynge asonder of the soule and the sprete and of the ioyntes and the mary: and iudgeth the thoughtes and the intentes of the herte:
13 Katonda amanyi ebintu byonna, so tewali kitonde na kimu ekikwekeddwa amaaso ge. Alaba buli kintu, era tulyogera mazima nga tumutegeeza buli kimu.
nether is there eny creature invisible in the sight of it. For all thynges are naked and bare vnto the eyes of him of who we speake.
14 Noolwekyo nga bwe tulina Kabona Asinga Obukulu, eyagenda mu ggulu, ye Yesu, Omwana wa Katonda, tunyweze okukkiriza kwe twayatula.
Seynge then that we have a great hye prest whych is entred into heven (I meane Iesus the sonne of God) let vs holde oure profession.
15 Tulina Kabona Asinga Obukulu alumirwa awamu naffe mu bunafu bwaffe, eyakemebwa mu byonna nga ffe, kyokka n’atakola kibi kyonna.
For we have not an hye prest which can not have compassion on oure infirmities: but was in all poyntes tempted lyke as we are: but yet with out synne.
16 Kale tusembererenga entebe ya Katonda ey’obwakabaka ey’ekisa n’obuvumu, tufune okusaasirwa n’ekisa tubeerwe mu kwetaaga kwaffe.
Let vs therfore goo boldely vnto the seate of grace that we maye receave mercy and fynde grace to helpe in tyme of nede.
