Koseya 5
1 Muwulire kino mmwe bakabona! Musseeyo omwoyo, mmwe Isirayiri! Muwulirize, mmwe ennyumba ya Kabaka! Omusango guli ku mmwe: Mubadde kyambika e Mizupa, era ekitimba ekitegeddwa ku Taboli.
Hear this, O ye priests, and attend, ye house of Israel, and give ear, O house of the king, for unto you pertaineth the judgment; for ye have been a snare on Mizpah, and a net spread upon Tabor.
2 Abajeemu bamaliridde okutta, naye ndibabonereza bonna.
And they that fall away are gone deep in making slaughter; and I am rejected of them all.
3 Mmanyi byonna ebikwata ku Efulayimu, so ne Isirayiri tankisibwa. Efulayimu weewaddeyo okukuba obwamalaaya, ne Isirayiri yeeyonoonye.
I, even I, know Ephraim, and Israel is not hid from Me; for now, O Ephraim, thou hast committed harlotry, Israel is defiled.
4 Ebikolwa byabwe tebibaganya kudda eri Katonda waabwe, kubanga omwoyo ogw’obwamalaaya guli mu mitima gyabwe, so tebamanyi Mukama.
Their doings will not suffer them to return unto their God; for the spirit of harlotry is within them, and they know not the LORD.
5 Amalala ga Isirayiri gabalumiriza; Abayisirayiri ne Efulayimu balyesittala olw’omusango gwabwe; ne Yuda alyesittalira wamu nabo.
But the pride of Israel shall testify to his face; and Israel and Ephraim shall stumble in their iniquity, Judah also shall stumble with them.
6 Bwe baligenda n’ebisibo byabwe n’amagana gaabwe okunoonya Mukama, tebalimulaba; abaviiridde, abeeyawuddeko.
With their flocks and with their herds they shall go to seek the LORD, but they shall not find Him; He hath withdrawn Himself from them.
7 Tebabadde beesigwa eri Mukama; bazadde abaana aboobwenzi. Embaga ez’omwezi ogwakaboneka kyeziriva zibamalawo, n’ennimiro zaabwe ne ziragajjalirwa.
They have dealt treacherously against the LORD, for they have begotten strange children; now shall the new moon devour them with their portions.
8 Mufuuwe eŋŋombe mu Gibea, n’ekkondeere mu Laama. Muyimuse amaloboozi e Besaveni; mutukulembere mmwe Benyamini.
Blow ye the horn in Gibeah, and the trumpet in Ramah; sound an alarm at Beth-aven: 'Behind thee, O Benjamin!'
9 Efulayimu alifuuka matongo ku lunaku olw’okubonerezebwa. Nnangirira ebiribaawo mu bika bya Isirayiri.
Ephraim shall be desolate in the day of rebuke; among the tribes of Israel do I make known that which shall surely be.
10 Abakulembeze ba Yuda bali ng’abo abajjulula ensalo, era ndibafukako obusungu bwange ng’omujjuzo gw’amazzi.
The princes of Judah are like them that remove the landmark; I will pour out My wrath upon them like water.
11 Efulayimu anyigirizibwa, era omusango gumumezze, kubanga yamalirira okugoberera bakatonda abalala.
Oppressed is Ephraim, crushed in his right; because he willingly walked after filth.
12 Kyenvudde nfuuka ng’ennyenje eri Efulayimu, n’eri ennyumba ya Yuda n’emba ng’ekintu ekivundu.
Therefore am I unto Ephraim as a moth, and to the house of Judah as rottenness.
13 “Efulayimu bwe yalaba obulwadde bwe, ne Yuda n’alaba ekivundu kye, Efulayimu n’addukira mu Bwasuli, n’atumya obuyambi okuva eri kabaka waayo omukulu. Naye tasobola kubawonya newaakubadde okubajjanjaba ebiwundu byabwe.
And when Ephraim saw his sickness, and Judah his wound, Ephraim went to Assyria, and sent to King Contentious; but he is not able to heal you, neither shall he cure you of your wound.
14 Kyendiva mbeera ng’empologoma eri Efulayimu, era ng’empologoma ey’amaanyi eri ennyumba ya Yuda. Ndibataagulataagula ne ŋŋenda; ndibeetikka ne mbatwala, ne babulwako ayinza okubawonya.
For I will be unto Ephraim as a lion, and as a young lion to the house of Judah; I, even I, will tear and go away, I will take away, and there shall be none to deliver.
15 Ndiddayo mu kifo kyange, okutuusa lwe balikkiriza omusango gwabwe. Balinnoonya, mu buyinike bwabwe, balinnoonya n’omutima gwabwe gwonna.”
I will go and return to My place, till they acknowledge their guilt, and seek My face; in their trouble they will seek Me earnestly:
