Isaaya 26
1 Mu biro ebyo oluyimba luno luliyimbibwa mu nsi ya Yuda. Tulina ekibuga eky’amaanyi; Katonda assaawo obulokozi okuba bbugwe waakyo n’ekigo kyakyo.
Ngalolosuku lingoma izahlatshelwa elizweni lakoJuda ethi: Silomuzi oqinileyo; uNkulunkulu uzamisa usindiso lube yimiduli lezinqaba.
2 Ggulawo wankaaki, eggwanga ettukuvu liyingire, eggwanga erikuuma okukkiriza.
Vulani amasango ukuze singene isizwe esilungileyo esigcina ukuthembeka.
3 Mukama alikuuma mirembe oyo amaliridde okumwesiga mu mutima gwe.
Uzamgcina ekuthuleni okupheleleyo ongqondo yakhe yeyama phezu kwakho, ngoba ethemba kuwe.
4 Weesigenga Mukama ennaku zonna, kubanga emirembe giri waggulu mu Mukama, Mukama Katonda oyo atoowaza.
Thembani eNkosini kokuphela, ngoba eNkosini uJehova kuLidwala elilaphakade.
5 Mukama lwe lwazi olutaggwaawo, akkakkanya ekibuga eky’amalala, akissa wansi ku ttaka, n’akisuula mu nfuufu.
Ngoba ibehlisela phansi abahlala engqongeni; umuzi ophakemeyo, iwehlisela phansi; iwehlisela phansi emhlabathini, iwufikise othulini.
6 Kirinnyirirwa ebigere by’abanyigirizibwa, n’ebisinde by’abaavu.
Unyawo luzawunyathelela phansi, ngitsho inyawo zabayanga, amanyathela abaswelayo.
7 Ekkubo ly’abatuukirivu ttereevu; Ggwe atuukiridde, olongoosa olugendo lw’omutuukirivu.
Indlela yabalungileyo iyikuqonda; wena oqondileyo, uyalinganisa umkhondo wabalungileyo.
8 Weewaawo Mukama Katonda tukulindirira nga tutambulira mu mateeka go, era erinnya lyo n’okumanyibwa kwo kwe kwegomba kw’emitima gyaffe.
Yebo, endleleni yezahlulelo zakho, Nkosi, sikulindele; isiloyiso somphefumulo wethu sisebizweni lakho lekukukhumbuleni.
9 Omwoyo gwange gukuyaayaanira mu kiro, omwoyo gwange gukunoonyeza ddala. Bw’osalira ensi omusango, abantu b’ensi bayiga obutuukirivu.
Ngomphefumulo wami ngikuloyisile ebusuku; yebo, ngomoya wami ophakathi kwami ngizakudinga ngovivi; ngoba lapho izahlulelo zakho zisemhlabeni, abahlali bomhlaba bazafunda ukulunga.
10 Omukozi w’ebibi ne bw’akolerwa ebyekisa, tayiga butuukirivu. Ne bw’abeera mu nsi ey’abatuukiridde, yeeyongera kukola bibi, era talaba kitiibwa kya Mukama Katonda.
Uba okhohlakeleyo etshengiswa umusa, kube kanti kayikufunda ukulunga; elizweni lobuqotho uzakwenza okubi, njalo kayikubona ubukhosi beNkosi.
11 Mukama Katonda omukono gwo guyimusibbwa waggulu, naye tebagulaba. Ka balabe obunyiikivu bwo eri abantu bo baswazibwe, omuliro ogwaterekerwa abalabe bo ka gubamalewo.
Nkosi, isandla sakho siphakeme, kabayikubona; kodwa bazabona, babe lenhloni ngokutshisekela kwakho abantu; intukuthelo yomlilo wezitha zakho uzaziqeda.
12 Mukama Katonda, otuteekerateekera emirembe, n’ebyo byonna bye tukoze, ggw’obitukoledde.
Nkosi, uzasimisela ukuthula, ngoba lawe usenzele yonke imisebenzi yethu.
13 Ayi Mukama Katonda waffe, abafuzi abalala batufuze nga wooli naye erinnya lyo lyokka lye tussaamu ekitiibwa.
Nkosi Nkulunkulu wethu, amanye amakhosi ngaphandle kwakho ake abusa phezu kwethu; kodwa ngawe kuphela sizakhumbula ibizo lakho.
14 Baafa, tebakyali balamu; egyo emyoyo egyagenda tegikyagolokoka. Wababonereza n’obazikiriza, wabasaanyizaawo ddala bonna, ne watabaawo akyabajjukira.
Afile, kawayikuphila; ayimimoya efileyo, kawayikuvuka; ngakho uwaphindisele wawachitha, waqeda konke ukukhunjulwa kwawo.
15 Ogaziyizza eggwanga, Ayi Mukama Katonda ogaziyizza eggwanga. Weefunidde ekitiibwa, era ogaziyizza ensalo zonna ez’ensi.
Usandisile isizwe, Nkosi, wasandisa isizwe; uyadunyiswa; usisusele khatshana kuyo yonke imikhawulo yomhlaba.
16 Mukama Katonda, bajja gy’oli mu nnaku yaabwe, bwe wabakangavvula, tebaasobola na kukusaba mu kaama.
Nkosi, besekuhluphekeni bakwethekelele, bathulula umkhuleko lapho ukujezisa kwakho kuphezu kwabo.
17 Ng’omukyala ow’olubuto anaatera okuzaala, bw’alumwa n’akaaba mu bulumi, bwe tutyo bwe twali mu maaso go, Ayi Mukama Katonda.
Njengowesifazana okhulelweyo sekusondele ukubeletha, esebuhlungwini, ekhala emihelweni yakhe, saba njalo ebusweni bakho, Nkosi.
18 Twali lubuto, twalumwa, naye twazaala mpewo Tetwaleeta bulokozi ku nsi, tetwazaala bantu ba nsi.
Sasikhulelwe, sasisebuhlungwini, kwakungathi sibelethe umoya. Kasenzanga usindiso emhlabeni, njalo abahlali bomhlaba kabawanga.
19 Naye abafiira mu ggwe balirama, emibiri gyabwe girizuukira. Mugolokoke, muleekaane olw’essanyu. Ssuulwe wo ali ng’omusulo ogw’oku makya, ensi erizaala abafudde.
Abafileyo bakho bazaphila, lesidumbu sami, bazavuka. Vukani, limemeze ngentokozo, lina elihlala ethulini; ngoba amazolo akho anjengamazolo emibhida, lomhlaba uzabakhupha imimoya efileyo.
20 Mugende abantu bange muyingire mu bisenge byammwe muggalewo enzigi zammwe. Mwekweke okumala akabanga katono, okutuusa ekiruyi kye lwe kirimuggwaako.
Hambani bantu bami, lingene emakamelweni enu, livale iminyango yenu ngemva kwenu, licatshe okwesikhatshana, luze ludlule ulaka.
21 Weewaawo laba Mukama Katonda ava mu kifo kye gy’abeera okubonereza abantu b’ensi olw’ebibi byabwe. Ensi erikwekula omusaayi ogwagiyiikako, era teriddayo nate kukweka abattibwa.
Ngoba, khangelani, iNkosi iyaphuma endaweni yayo ukuthi iphindisele ububi babahlali bomhlaba phezu kwabo; lomhlaba uzaveza igazi lawo, ungabe usabafihla ababuleweyo bawo.
