Koseya 12
1 Efulayimu alya mpewo; agoba empewo ez’ebuvanjuba olunaku lwonna, era bongera ku bulimba ne ku ttemu. Bakola endagaano n’Obwasuli, n’aweereza n’amafuta e Misiri.
UEfrayimi udla umoya, axotshane lomoya wempumalanga; usuku lonke wandisa amanga lencithakalo; benza isivumelwano leAsiriya, lamafutha athwalelwa eGibhithe.
2 Mukama alina ensonga ne Yuda, era alibonereza Yakobo ng’engeri ze bwe ziri. Amusasule ng’ebikolwa bye bwe biri.
INkosi layo ilengxabano loJuda, izahambela uJakobe ngokwendlela zakhe, imphindisele ngokwezenzo zakhe.
3 Bwe yali mu lubuto lwa nnyina yakwata muganda we ku kisinziiro, ne mu bukulu bwe n’ameggana ne Katonda.
Esiswini wabamba umfowabo ngesithende, langamandla akhe wabindana loNkulunkulu.
4 Yameggana ne malayika n’amuwangula, n’akaaba n’amwegayirira. Yamusisinkana e Beseri, n’ayogera naye.
Yebo, waba lamandla phezu kwengilosi, wanqoba, wakhala inyembezi wayincenga; eBhetheli wamthola, lalapho wakhuluma lathi.
5 Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye, Mukama ly’erinnya lye erijjukirwa.
Ngitsho iNkosi, uNkulunkulu wamabandla, iNkosi iyisikhumbuzo sayo.
6 Naye oteekwa okudda eri Katonda wo; kuuma okwagala n’obwenkanya, olindirirenga Katonda wo ennaku zonna.
Ngakho wena, phendukela kuNkulunkulu wakho, gcina umusa lokulunga, ulindele uNkulunkulu wakho njalonjalo.
7 Omusuubuzi akozesa ebipimo eby’obulimba, era anyumirwa okukumpanya.
Ungumthengisi, izilinganiso ezikhohlisayo zisesandleni sakhe, uthanda ukucindezela.
8 Efulayimu yeewaana ng’ayogera nti, “Ndi mugagga nnyo, nfunye ebintu bingi. Mu bugagga bwange bwonna, tebayinza kundabamu kibi wadde okwonoona kwonna.”
LoEfrayimi uthi: Kanti nginothile, sengizitholele inotho; kuyo yonke imitshikatshika yami kabayikuthola ububi kimi, obuyisono.
9 Nze Mukama Katonda wo, eyakuggya mu Misiri; ndikuzzaayo n’obeera mu weema nate, nga mu nnaku ez’embaga ezaalagirwa.
Kodwa ngiyiNkosi, uNkulunkulu wakho, kusukela elizweni leGibhithe; ngisezakuhlalisa emathenteni njengensukwini zomkhosi omisiweyo.
10 Nayogera eri bannabbi, ne mbawa okwolesebwa kungi, ne mbagerera engero nga mpita mu bo.
Ngizakhuluma futhi labaprofethi, mina ngandise umbono, ngisebenzise imifanekiso ngesandla sabaprofethi.
11 Gireyaadi butali butuukirivu era n’abantu baamu butaliimu. Mu Gireyaadi basalirayo ente ennume ne baziwaayo nga ssaddaaka, era ebyoto byabwe binaaba ng’entuumo ey’amayinja mu nnimiro ennime.
Bukhona yini ububi eGileyadi? Isibili bayize, bahlaba izinkunzi eGiligali; yebo, amalathi abo anjengenqumbi emiseleni yamasimu.
12 Yakobo yaddukira mu nsi ya Alamu; Isirayiri yaweereza okufuna omukazi, era okumufuna yalundanga ndiga.
Kanti uJakobe wabalekela elizweni leSiriya, loIsrayeli wasebenzela umfazi, welusa izimvu ngenxa yomfazi.
13 Mukama yakozesa nnabbi okuggya Isirayiri mu Misiri, era n’akozesa nnabbi okumukuuma.
Langomprofethi iNkosi yamenyusa uIsrayeli eGibhithe, langomprofethi walondolozwa.
14 Naye Efulayimu amusoomoozezza era amusunguwazizza, Mukama we kyaliva amutekako omusango olw’omusaayi gwe yayiwa, n’amusasula olw’obunyoomi bwe.
UEfrayimi uyicunule ngobuhlungu obukhulu; ngakho izayekela igazi lakhe phezu kwakhe, leNkosi yakhe ilibuyisele kuye ihlazo lakhe.
