Isaaya 13
1 Obubaka bwa Babulooni Isaaya mutabani wa Amozi bwe yalaba.
Umthwalo weBhabhiloni awubonayo uIsaya indodana kaAmozi.
2 Muwanike bbendera ku lusozi olutaliiko bantu, mubakaabirire mubawenye bayingire mu miryango gy’abakungu.
Phakamisani uphawu entabeni eligceke, libaphakamisele ilizwi, liqhwebe ngesandla, ukuze bangene eminyango yeziphathamandla.
3 Nze Mukama ndagidde abatukuvu bange mpise abalwanyi bange ab’amaanyi, babonereze abo abeeyisaawo abeemanyi.
Mina ngibalayile abangcwelisiweyo bami, ngibizile lamaqhawe ami kuntukuthelo yami, abathokozayo ngobukhosi bami.
4 Muwulirize oluyoogaano lw’ekibiina ku nsozi, nga luwulikika ng’olw’ogubiina ogunene! Wuliriza, oluyoogaano lw’obwakabaka, olw’amawanga ag’ekuŋŋaanyizza awamu! Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye ateekateeka eggye lye okulwana.
Ukuxokozela kwexuku ezintabeni, kungathi ngokwabantu abanengi, umsindo wokuxokozela kwemibuso, kwezizwe ezibutheneyo; iNkosi yamabandla ibutha ibutho lempi.
5 Bava wala mu nsi ezeewala ennya okuva ku nkomerero y’eggulu. Mu busungu bwe Mukama Katonda aleese ebyokulwanyisa eby’okuzikiriza ensi yonna.
Bavela elizweni elikhatshana, emkhawulweni wamazulu, iNkosi kanye lezikhali zentukuthelo yayo, ukuchitha ilizwe lonke.
6 Mukungubage, kubanga olunaku lwa Mukama luli kumpi, lulijja ng’okuzikirira okuva eri Mukama Katonda bwe kuba!
Qhinqani isililo, ngoba usuku lweNkosi lusondele; njengokuchitheka okuvela kuSomandla luzafika.
7 Emikono gyonna kyegiriva giggwaamu amaanyi, na buli mutima gwa muntu gulisaanuuka;
Ngenxa yalokhu izandla zonke zizaxega, lenhliziyo yonke yomuntu incibilike;
8 era bakeŋŋentererwe n’okubalagala kulibakwata, balyoke balumwe ng’omukazi alumwa okuzaala. Balitunulaganako nga bawuniikiridde amaaso gaabwe nga gatangaalirira.
babesebetshaywa luvalo; imihelo lobuhlungu kubabambe; bafuthelwe njengowesifazana obelethayo; bamangale ngulowo ngomakhelwane wakhe; ubuso babo buyibuso bamalangabi.
9 Laba olunaku lwa Mukama lujja, olunaku olubi ennyo olw’ekiruyi n’obusungu obubuubuuka okufuula ensi amatongo, n’okuzikiriza abakozi b’ebibi okubamalamu.
Khangelani, usuku lweNkosi luyeza, lulesihluku lokufutheka lolaka oluvuthayo, ukubeka umhlaba ube yincithakalo; ibhubhise izoni zawo zisuke kuwo.
10 Kubanga emmunyeenye ez’omu ggulu n’ebibiina byazo tebiryaka; enjuba nayo teryaka nga bw’ekola bulijjo, n’omwezi nagwo tegulyaka.
Ngoba inkanyezi zamazulu lemithala yazo kaziyikukhanyisa ukukhanya kwazo; ilanga lizakuba mnyama ekuphumeni kwalo, lenyanga kayiyikukhanyisa ukukhanya kwayo.
11 Ndibonereza ensi olw’okwonoona kw’ayo, n’abakozi b’ebibi olw’ebyonoono byabwe. Era ndimalawo okweyisa kw’ab’amalala era nzikakkanya okwenyumiriza kw’abo abakambwe.
Ngoba ngizaphindisela ububi phezu komhlaba, laphezu kwabakhohlakeleyo izono zabo; ngiqede ukuzigqaja kwabazikhukhumezayo; ngithobise ukuzikhukhumeza kwabalesihluku.
12 Abantu ndibafuula abebbula okusinga zaabu ennongoose eya ofiri.
Ngizakwenza ukuthi indoda ibe ligugu elikhulu kulegolide elicwengekileyo, lomuntu kulegolide leOfiri.
13 Noolwekyo ndikankanya eggulu, era n’ensi ngiyuuguumye okuva mu kifo kyayo, olw’obusungu bwa Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye, ku lunaku lw’obusungu bwe obungi.
Ngenxa yalokhu ngizazamazamisa amazulu, lomhlaba uzanyikinyeka usuke endaweni yawo, entukuthelweni yeNkosi yamabandla, losukwini lokuvutha kolaka lwayo.
14 Era ng’empeewo eyiggibwa, ng’endiga eteriiko agirunda, buli muntu aliddukira eri abantu be buli muntu aliddukira mu nsi y’ewaabwe.
Njalo kuzakuba njengomziki oxotshwayo, lanjengezimvu okungelamuntu oziqoqayo; bazaphenduka ngulowo lalowo ebantwini bakibo, babalekele ngulowo lalowo elizweni lakhe.
15 Buli anaalabwangako ng’ekitala kimuyitamu, buli gwe banaakwatangako ng’attibwa n’ekitala.
Wonke ozatholakala uzagwazwa, laye wonke ozabanjwa uzakuwa ngenkemba.
16 N’abaana baabwe abawere banabetenterwanga mu maaso gaabwe nga balaba; ennyumba zaabwe zinyagibwe, n’abakazi baabwe bakwatibwe olw’empaka.
Labantwana babo bazachotshozwa phambi kwamehlo abo, izindlu zabo ziphangwe, labomkabo badlwengulwe.
17 Laba, ndibayimbulira Abameedi, abatafa ku ffeeza era abateeguya zaabu.
Khangela, ngizabavusela amaMede, angakhathaleli isiliva, legolide, angathokozi ngalo.
18 Emitego gyabwe girikuba abavubuka era tebaliba na kisa eri abawere. Amaaso gaabwe tegalisaasira baana bato.
Lamadandili awo azachoboza amajaha; njalo kawayikuba lesihawu ngesithelo sesizalo; ilihlo lawo kaliyikuhawukela abantwana.
19 Ne Babulooni, ekitiibwa eky’obwakabaka, obulungi obw’okwemanya kw’Abakaludaaya, kiriba nga Sodomu ne Ggomola Katonda bye yawamba.
LeBhabhiloni, udumo lwemibuso, ubuhle bokuziqhenya kwamaKhaladiya, izakuba njengokugenqulwa nguNkulunkulu kweSodoma leGomora.
20 Tekiriddamu kusulwamu ennaku zonna, so tekiribeerwamu emirembe n’emirembe, so teri Muwalabu alisimbayo weema ye, teri musumba aligalamizaayo ggana lye kuwummulirayo.
Kakuyikuba lendawo yokuhlala kuze kube nininini, njalo kayiyikuhlalwa kusizukulwana lesizukulwana; lomArabhiya kayikumisa ithente khona, labelusi kabayikulalisa umhlambi khona.
21 Naye ensolo enkambwe ez’omu ddungu ze zinaagalamirangayo; ennyumba zijjule ebintu ebiwoowoola; bammaaya banaabeeranga eyo, n’ebikulekule bibuukire eyo.
Kodwa izilo zeganga zizalala khona, lezindlu zayo zizagcwala izilo ezikhonyayo; lamadodakazi ezintshe azahlala khona, lamagogo aqolotshe khona.
22 N’empisi zinaakaabiranga mu bigulumu by’ebigo byabwe, ebibe bikaabire mu mbiri zaabwe ezitemagana. Ekiseera kyakyo kinaatera okutuuka, ennaku ze teziryongerwako.
Lezimpisi zizaphendulana emanxiweni ayo, lemigobho ezigodlweni ezilentokozo. Lesikhathi sayo siseduze ukufika, lezinsuku zayo kaziyikuphuziswa.
