Isaaya 22
1 Obunnabbi obukwata ku Kiwonvu ky’Okwolesebwa: Kiki ekikutawanya kaakano, n’okulinnya n’olinnya waggulu ku busolya,
Umthwalo wesigodi sombono. Kutheni kuwe khathesi, ukuthi ngulowo lalowo wakho akhwele empahleni zezindlu?
2 ggwe ekibuga ekijjudde oluyoogaano, ggwe ekibuga eky’amasanyu era eky’ebinyumu? Abantu bo abattibwa, tebaafa kitala newaakubadde okufiira mu lutalo.
Wena ogcwele imisindo, muzi oxokozelayo, dolobho elilentokozo, ababuleweyo bakho kababulawanga ngenkemba, kabafelanga empini.
3 Abakulembeze bo bonna baddukidde wamu; bawambiddwa awatali kulwana. Bonna baakwatibwa ne batwalibwa wamu nga basibe, kubanga badduka.
Bonke ababusi bakho babaleke kanyekanye, babotshwe ngabatshoki, bonke abatholakala kuwe, babotshiwe kanyekanye, babaleke besuka khatshana.
4 Kyenava njogera nti, “Munveeko, mundeke nkaabire ddala nnyo. Temugezaako kunsaasira olw’okuzikirizibwa kw’omuwala w’abantu bange.”
Ngenxa yalokhu ngathi: Susani amehlo kimi; kangikhale kabuhlungu; ungaphangisi ukungiduduza ngenxa yokuchitheka kwendodakazi yabantu bakithi.
5 Mukama, Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye alina olunaku olw’akatabanguko, olw’okulinyirirwa n’entiisa mu Kiwonvu ky’Okwolesebwa; olunaku olw’okumenya bbugwe, n’okukaabirira ensozi.
Ngoba kulusuku lokusanganiseka, lolokunyathelela phansi, lolokuphithizela kweNkosi uJehova wamabandla esigodini sombono, lokudilizela phansi umduli, lolokuhlaba umkhosi kuze kube sentabeni.
6 Eramu ayambalidde omufuko gw’obusaale, n’atwala n’abavuzi b’amagaali ge n’embalaasi, Kiri asabuukulula engabo.
IElamu yathatha-ke isikhwama semitshoko, kanye lenqola, abantu, abagadi bamabhiza; leKiri yembula isihlangu.
7 Ebiwonvu byo ebisinga obulungi bijjudde amagaali, n’abeebagala embalaasi bassibbwa ku wankaaki.
Kuzakuthi-ke izigodi zakho ezikhethekileyo zigcwala izinqola, labagadi bamabhiza bazihlele lokuzihlela ngasesangweni.
8 Okwerinda kwa Yuda kuggyiddwawo. Ku lunaku olwo watunuulira ebyokulwanyisa eby’omu Lubiri olw’Ekibira.
Njalo yena uzakwembula isimbombozo sakoJuda; langalolosuku wena uzakhangela izikhali zendlu yehlathi.
9 Walaba amabanga agaali mu kwerinda kw’Ekibuga kya Dawudi, wakuŋŋaanya amazzi mu Kidiba eky’Emmanga.
Njalo lizabona imikenke yomuzi kaDavida, ukuthi minengi, liqoqe amanzi echibini elingaphansi.
10 Wabala ebizimbe mu Yerusaalemi n’omenya amayumba okusobola okunyweza bbugwe.
Lizabala izindlu zeJerusalema, lidilize izindlu ukuze liqinise umduli.
11 Wasima ekidiba omuterekebwa amazzi wakati w’ebisenge ebibiri, n’okuŋŋaanya ag’ekidiba ekikadde, naye tewatunuulira Oyo eyakisima, wadde okussaamu ekitiibwa Oyo eyakiteekateeka mu biro eby’edda.
Lizakwenza ichibi phakathi kwemiduli yomibili lisenzela amanzi omgodi omdala. Kodwa kaliyikukhangela kowakwenzayo, kalimnanzanga owakubumbayo kudala.
12 Ku lunaku olwo Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye yalangirira okukaaba n’okukuba ebiwoobe, n’okwemwako enviiri n’okwambala ebibukutu.
Langalolosuku iNkosi uJehova wamabandla izamemezela ukulila, lokukhala, lokuphucwa kwamakhanda, lokugqokwa kwesaka.
13 Naye laba, ssanyu na kujaguza, okubaaga ente n’okutta endiga, okulya ennyama n’okunywa envinnyo. Mwogere nti, “Leka tulye, era tunywe kubanga enkya tunaafa.”
Kodwa khangela, injabulo lokuthaba, ukubulawa kwenkomo, lokuhlatshwa kwezimvu, ukudliwa kwenyama, lokunathwa kwewayini; lathi: Asidleni sinathe, ngoba kusasa sizakufa.
14 Mukama ow’Eggye akimbikulidde n’aŋŋamba nti, “Ekibi kino tekirisonyiyibwa wadde okuggyibwawo okutuusa lw’olifa,” bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye.
Kodwa iNkosi yamabandla yembula endlebeni zami isithi: Isibili lesisono kaliyikusenzelwa inhlawulo yokuthula lize life, kutsho iNkosi uJehova wamabandla.
15 Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye nti, “Genda eri omuwanika oyo, eri Sabuna avunaanyizibwa olubiri omugambe nti,
Itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova wamabandla: Hamba uye kulo umphathi, kuShebina, ophezu kwendlu, uthi:
16 Okola ki wano era ani yakuwadde olukusa okwetemera entaana wano, n’otema n’amaanyi entaana yo waggulu mu lwazi, ne weerongoosereza eyo ekifo eky’okuwummuliramu?
Ulani lapha, njalo ulobani lapha, ukuthi uzigebhele ingcwaba lapha, njengozigebhela ingcwaba lakhe phezulu, ozigubhela indawo yokuhlala edwaleni?
17 “Weegendereze Mukama Katonda anaatera okukuvumbagira, akuggyewo ggwe omusajja ow’amaanyi.
Khangela, iNkosi izakujikijela khatshana ngokujika kwendoda; izakugoqela ngokukugoqela,
18 Alikuzingazingako, n’akukanyuga mu nsi engazi, nga bwe yandikanyuze omupiira ogusambwa. Eyo gy’olifiira, era eyo amagaali go ag’ekitiibwa gye galisigala, ggwe ensonyi ez’ennyumba ya Mukama wo.
ikuthandele lokukuthandela njengebhola eligoqelwayo; njengebhola izakuphosela elizweni elibanzi; lalapho uzafela, lalapho izinqola zodumo lwakho zizakuba lihlazo, olwendlu yenkosi yakho!
19 Ndikuggya ku ntebe yo, era oliggyibwa mu kifo kyo.
Njalo ngizakusunduza usuke esikhundleni sakho, ikuwise ekumeni kwakho.
20 “Mu biro ebyo nditumya omuweereza wange Eriyakimu mutabani wa Kirukiya.
Kuzakuthi-ke ngalolosuku ngibize inceku yami uEliyakhimi indodana kaHilikhiya;
21 Ndimwambaza ekyambalo kyo, ne munyweza n’olukoba lwo, ne mukwasa obuyinza bwo. Aliba kitaawe w’abo ababeera mu Yerusaalemi, n’eri ennyumba ya Yuda.
ngizamgqokisa isigqoko sakho, ngimqinise ngebhanti lakho, nginikeze umbuso wakho esandleni sakhe; njalo yena uzakuba nguyise kubahlali beJerusalema lendlini yakoJuda.
22 Ndimukwasa ekisumuluzo ky’ennyumba ya Dawudi; bw’aliggulawo tewaliba aggalawo, bw’aliggalawo tewaliba aggulawo.
Ngizabeka-ke isihluthulelo sendlu kaDavida ehlombe lakhe; yena uzavula kungavali muntu, avale kungavuli muntu.
23 Ndimunyweza mu kifo ng’enkondo ennene, era aliba ntebe ya kitiibwa eri ennyumba ya kitaawe.
Ngizambethela njengesikhonkwane endaweni eqinileyo; njalo uzakuba yisihlalo sobukhosi esilodumo endlini kayise.
24 Ekitiibwa ky’ennyumba ye kiribeera ku nnyumba ye, ne ku zadde lye ne ku nda ye yonna, ne ku bintu bye ebinywerwamu, okuva ku bibya okutuuka ku nsumbi.”
Njalo bazaphanyeka phezu kwakhe udumo lonke lwendlu kayise, inzalo lembewu, zonke izitsha ezincinyane, kusukela ezitsheni zenkezo kusiya kuzo zonke izitsha zeziphiso.
25 Bw’ati bw’ayogera Katonda ow’Eggye nti, “Ku lunaku olwo, enkondo ennene eyakomererwa mu kifo n’enywera erisalibwa, n’eneguka, n’egwa, n’omugugu gw’ekutte gulisarwako.” Mukama ayogedde.
Ngalolosuku, itsho iNkosi yamabandla, isikhonkwane esabethelwa endaweni eqinileyo sizasuswa, siganyulwe siwe; lomthwalo obuphezu kwaso uzaqunywa; ngoba iNkosi ikhulumile.
