Isaaya 2
1 Kuno kwe kwolesebwa Isaaya omwana wa Amozi kwe yalaba ku Yuda ne Yerusaalemi.
This is what Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.
2 Olulituuka mu nnaku ez’oluvannyuma olusozi okuli ennyumba ya Mukama Katonda lulinywezebwa lusinge ensozi zonna okugulumira, luliyimusibwa lusukke ku ndala zonna, era amawanga gonna galilwolekera.
It shall happen in the latter days, that the mountain of the LORD’s house shall be established on the top of the mountains, and shall be raised above the hills; and all nations shall flow to it.
3 Abantu bangi balijja bagambe nti, Mujje twambuke tulinnye ku lusozi lwa Mukama, mu nnyumba ya Katonda wa Yakobo, alyoke atuyigirize amakubo ge, tulyoke tutambulire mu mateeka ge. Kubanga Mukama aliteeka amateeka ng’asinziira mu Sayuuni, era mu Yerusaalemi abayigirize ekigambo kye.
Many peoples shall go and say, “Come, let’s go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths.” For the law shall go out of Zion, and the LORD’s word from Jerusalem.
4 Alisala enkaayana z’amawanga, aliramula emisango gy’abantu bangi, era ebitala byabwe balibiwesaamu enkumbi, n’amafumu gaabwe bagaweeseemu ebiwabyo. Eggwanga teririyimusa kitala ku ggwanga linnaalyo, so tebalyetegeka kulwana ntalo nate.
He will judge between the nations, and will decide concerning many peoples. They shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
5 Ggwe ennyumba ya Yakobo, mujje tutambulire mu kitangaala kya Mukama Katonda.
House of Jacob, come, and let’s walk in the light of the LORD.
6 Wayabulira abantu bo ab’ennyumba ya Yakobo, kubanga eggwanga lijjudde obusamize obuva mu buvanjuba, n’obulaguzi obuli nga obw’omu Bafirisuuti, era basizza kimu ne bannamawanga.
For you have forsaken your people, the house of Jacob, because they are filled from the east, with those who practice divination like the Philistines, and they clasp hands with the children of foreigners.
7 Ensi yaabwe ejjudde effeeza ne zaabu, n’obugagga bwabwe tebuliiko kkomo: ensi yaabwe ejjudde embalaasi, era erimu n’amagaali g’embalaasi mangi nnyo.
Their land is full of silver and gold, neither is there any end of their treasures. Their land also is full of horses, neither is there any end of their chariots.
8 Ensi yaabwe ejjudde bakatonda ababumbe, basinza omulimu gw’emikono gyabwe bo, engalo zaabwe gwe zeekolera.
Their land also is full of idols. They worship the work of their own hands, that which their own fingers have made.
9 Kale omuntu wa kukkakkanyizibwa, omuntu wa kussibwa wansi. Mukama, tobasonyiwa!
Man is brought low, and mankind is humbled; therefore do not forgive them.
10 Mugende mwekweke mu njazi, mwekweke mu binnya wansi mu ttaka, nga mudduka entiisa ya Mukama Katonda, nga mudduka entiisa y’ekitiibwa ky’obukulu bwe.
Enter into the rock, and hide in the dust, from before the terror of the LORD, and from the glory of his majesty.
11 Olunaku lujja okweyisa kw’omuntu n’amalala ge lwe birizikirizibwa, era Mukama Katonda yekka yaligulumizibwa ku olwo.
The lofty looks of man will be brought low, the arrogance of men will be bowed down, and the LORD alone will be exalted in that day.
12 Kubanga Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye alina olunaku lw’ategese eri abo bonna ab’amalala era abeewanise, eri ebyo byonna eby’egulumiza ebijjudde okwemanya n’okwewulira.
For there will be a day of the LORD of Armies for all that is proud and arrogant, and for all that is lifted up, and it shall be brought low—
13 Alizikiriza emiti gy’omu Lebanooni, emiwanvu emigulumivu, n’emivule gyonna egya Basani.
for all the cedars of Lebanon, that are high and lifted up, for all the oaks of Bashan,
14 Era n’ensozi zonna empanvu, n’obusozi bwonna obugulumivu.
for all the high mountains, for all the hills that are lifted up,
15 Na buli mulongooti gwonna omuwanvu, na buli bbugwe gwe bakomese.
for every lofty tower, for every fortified wall,
16 Alizikiriza emmeeri zonna ez’e Talusiisi, n’ebifaananyi byonna ebisiige eby’omuwendo omungi.
for all the ships of Tarshish, and for all pleasant imagery.
17 Era okwegulumiza kw’abantu kulijemulukuka, n’amalala g’abantu galissibwa; era Mukama Katonda yekka yaligulumizibwa ku lunaku olwo.
The loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the arrogance of men shall be brought low; and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day.
18 N’ebifaananyi bye basinza birizikiririzibwa ddala ku olwo.
The idols shall utterly pass away.
19 Abantu balidduka ne beekweka mu mpuku mu mayinja, ne mu binnya mu ttaka, nga badduka entiisa n’ekitiibwa ky’obukulu bwa Mukama Katonda, bwaliyimuka okukankanya ensi n’amaanyi.
Men shall go into the caves of the rocks, and into the holes of the earth, from before the terror of the LORD, and from the glory of his majesty, when he arises to shake the earth mightily.
20 Ku lunaku olwo abantu balisuulira ddala bakatonda baabwe abakole mu ffeeza, n’abakole mu zaabu, be beekolera nga ba kusinzanga, ne babakanyuga eri emmese n’eri ebinyira.
In that day, men shall cast away their idols of silver and their idols of gold, which have been made for themselves to worship, to the moles and to the bats,
21 Balidduka ne beekukuma mu mpuku ez’amayinja amaatifu nga badduka entiisa n’ekitiibwa ky’obukulu bwa Mukama Katonda, bwaliyimuka okukankanya ensi.
to go into the caverns of the rocks, and into the clefts of the ragged rocks, from before the terror of the LORD, and from the glory of his majesty, when he arises to shake the earth mightily.
22 Mulekeraawo okwesiga omuntu alina omukka obukka mu nnyindo ze. Kiki ennyo kyali?
Stop trusting in man, whose breath is in his nostrils; for of what account is he?
