Koseya 9
1 Tosanyuka ggwe Isirayiri; tojaguza ng’amawanga amalala, kubanga tobadde mwesigwa eri Katonda wo, weegomba empeera eya malaaya ku buli gguuliro.
Rejoice not, O Israel for ioy as other people: for thou hast gone a whoring from thy God: thou hast loued a rewarde vpon euery corne floore.
2 Egguuliro n’essogolero tebiribaliisa, ne wayini omusu alibaggwaako.
The floore, and the wine presse shall not feede them, and the newe wine shall faile in her.
3 Tebalisigala mu nsi ya Mukama; Efulayimu aliddayo e Misiri n’alya emmere etali nnongoofu mu Bwasuli.
They wil not dwel in the Lordes lande, but Ephraim will returne to Egypt, and they will eate vncleane things in Asshur.
4 Tebaliwaayo biweebwayo ebya wayini eri Mukama, so ne ssaddaaka zaabwe tezirimusanyusa. Ssaddaaka zaabwe ziriba ng’emmere ey’abakungubazi, ne bonna abaliziryako balifuuka abatali balongoofu. Emmere eyo eriba yaabwe bo, so teriyingizibwa mu yeekaalu ya Mukama.
They shall not offer wine to the Lord, neither shall their sacrifices be pleasant vnto him: but they shall be vnto them as the bread of mourners: al that eate thereof, shalbe polluted: for their bread for their soules shall not come into the house of the Lord.
5 Kiki ky’olikola ku lunaku olw’embaga ezaalondebwa, ku lunaku olw’embaga ya Mukama?
What wil ye do then in the solemne day, and in the day of the feast of the Lord?
6 Ne bwe baliwona okuzikirira, Misiri alibakuŋŋaanya, ne Menfisi alibaziika. Eby’obugagga byabwe ebya ffeeza birizika, n’eweema zaabwe zirimeramu amaggwa.
For loe, they are gone from destruction: but Egypt shall gather them vp, and Memphis shall burie them: the nettle shall possesse the pleasant places of their siluer, and the thorne shall be in their tabernacles.
7 Ennaku ez’okubonerezebwa zijja, ennaku ez’okusasulirwamu ziri kumpi. Ekyo Isirayiri akimanye. Olw’ebibi byammwe okuba ebingi ennyo, n’obukambwe bwammwe obungi, nnabbi ayitibwa musirusiru, n’oyo eyabikkulirwa mumuyita mugu wa ddalu.
The daies of visitation are come: the daies of recompence are come: Israel shall knowe it: the Prophet is a foole: the spiritual man is mad, for the multitude of thine iniquitie: therefore the hatred is great.
8 Nnabbi awamu ne Katonda wange ye mukuumi wa Efulayimu, newaakubadde nga waliwo emitego mu kkubo lye, n’obukambwe mu nnyumba ya Katonda we.
The watchman of Ephraim shoulde bee with my God: but the Prophet is the snare of a fouler in all his waies, and hatred in the House of his God.
9 Boonoonye nnyo nnyini nga mu nnaku ez’e Gibea. Katonda alijjukira obutali butuukirivu bwabwe, n’ababonereza olw’ebibi byabwe.
They are deepely set: they are corrupt as in the daies of Gibeah: therefore he will remember their iniquitie, he will visite their sinnes.
10 We nasangira Isirayiri, kyali nga kulaba zabbibu mu ddungu. Bwe nalaba bajjajjammwe, kyali nga kulaba ebibala ebisooka ku mutiini. Naye bwe bajja e Baalipyoli, beewonga eri ekifaananyi eky’ensonyi, ne bafuuka ekyenyinnyalwa ng’ekifaananyi kye baayagala.
I found Israel like grapes in the wildernes: I saw your fathers as the first ripe in the figge tree at her first time: but they went to Baal-Peor, and separated themselues vnto that shame, and their abominations were according to their louers.
11 Ekitiibwa kya Efulayimu kiribuuka ne kigenda ng’ekinyonyi nga tewali kuzaala, newaakubadde okuba olubuto newaakubadde okufuna olubuto.
Ephraim their glorie shall flee away like a birde: from the birth and from the wombe, and from the conception.
12 Ne bwe balikuza abaana baabwe, ndibabaggyako bonna. Ziribasanga bwe ndibavaako.
Though they bring vp their children, yet I will depriue them from being men: yea, woe to them, when I depart from them.
13 Nalaba Efulayimu ng’asimbiddwa mu kifo ekirungi, nga Ttuulo bw’ali. Naye Efulayimu alifulumya abaana be ne battibwa.
Ephraim, as I sawe, is as a tree in Tyrus planted in a cottage: but Ephraim shall bring forth his children to the murtherer.
14 Bawe Ayi Mukama Katonda. Olibawa ki? Leetera embuto zaabwe okuvaamu obawe n’amabeere amakalu.
O Lord, giue them: what wilt thou giue them? giue them a baren wombe and drie breasts.
15 Olw’ebibi byabwe byonna mu Girugaali, kyennava mbakyayira eyo. Olw’ebikolwa byabwe ebitali bya butuukirivu, kyendiva mbagoba mu nnyumba yange. Siribaagala nate; abakulembeze baabwe bonna bajeemu.
All their wickednesse is in Gilgal: for there doe I hate them: for the wickednesse of their inuentions, I will cast them out of mine House: I will loue them no more: all their princes are rebels.
16 Efulayimu balwadde, emirandira gyabwe gikaze, tebakyabala bibala. Ne bwe balizaala abaana baabwe, nditta ezzadde lyabwe lye baagala ennyo.
Ephraim is smitten, their roote is dried vp: they can bring no fruite: yea, though they bring foorth, yet will I slaie euen the dearest of their bodie.
17 Katonda wange alibavaako kubanga tebamugondedde; baliba momboze mu mawanga.
My God will cast them away, because they did not obey him: and they shall wander among the nations.
