Isaaya 12

1 Ku lunaku olwo oligamba nti, “Nnaakwebazanga ayi Mukama Katonda; newaakubadde nga wansunguwalira, obusungu bwo bwaggwaawo era onzizizzaamu amaanyi.

And thou shalt say in that day: I will give thanks to thee, O Lord, for thou wast angry with me: thy wrath is turned away, and thou hast comforted me.

2 Laba Katonda bwe bulokozi bwange; nzija kumwesiga era siritya; kubanga Mukama Katonda ge maanyi gange era lwe luyimba lwange, era afuuse obulokozi bwange.”

Behold, God is my saviour, I will deal confidently, and will not fear: O because the Lord is my strength, and my praise, and he is become my salvation.

3 Munaasenanga n’essanyu amazzi okuva mu nzizi ez’obulokozi.

You shall draw waters with joy out of the saviour’s fountains:

4 Era ku lunaku olwo mulyogera nti, “Mwebaze Mukama Katonda, mukoowoole erinnya lye, mubuulire ebikolwa bye mu mawanga, mwogere nti erinnya lye ligulumizibwe.

And you shall say in that day: Praise ye the Lord, and call upon his name: make his works known among the people: remember that his name is high.

5 Mumuyimbire Mukama Katonda ettendo kubanga akoze eby’ettendo; muleke kino kimanyibwe mu mawanga gonna.

Sing ye to the Lord, for he hath done great things: shew this forth in all the earth.

6 Leekaana n’eddoboozi ery’omwanguka oyimbe n’essanyu ggwe omuntu w’omu Sayuuni, kubanga Omutukuvu wa Isirayiri ali wakati mu ggwe mukulu.”

Rejoice, and praise, O thou habitation of Sion: for great is he that is in the midst of thee, the Holy One of Israel.
