< Isaaya 32 >
1 Laba, Kabaka alifuga mu butuukirivu, n’abafuzi balifuga mu bwenkanya.
Behold, a King shall reigne in iustice, and the princes shall rule in iudgement.
2 Buli muntu aliba ng’ekifo eky’okwekwekamu empewo, ng’ekiddukiro okuva eri kibuyaga, ng’emigga gy’amazzi mu ddungu, ng’ekisiikirize eky’olwazi olunene mu nsi ey’ennyonta.
And that man shall bee as an hiding place from the winde, and as a refuge for the tempest: as riuers of water in a drie place, and as the shadowe of a great rocke in a weary land.
3 Olwo amaaso gaabo abalaba tegaliziba, n’amatu g’abo abawulira galiwuliriza.
The eyes of the seeing shall not be shut, and the eares of them that heare, shall hearken.
4 Omutima gw’abatali bagumiikiriza gulimanya era gulitegeera, n’olulimi olw’abanaanaagira lulitereera ne boogera bulungi.
And the heart of the foolish shall vnderstand knowledge, and the tongue of the stutters shalbe ready to speake distinctly.
5 Omusirusiru taliddayo kuyitibwa wa kitiibwa, newaakubadde omuntu omwonoonyi okuteekebwamu ekitiibwa.
A nigard shall no more be called liberall, nor the churle riche.
6 Omusirusiru ayogera bya busirusiru, n’omutima gwe gwemalira ku kukola ebitali bya butuukirivu. Akola eby’obutatya Katonda, era ayogera bya bulimba ku Mukama, n’abayala abaleka tebalina kintu, n’abalumwa ennyonta abamma amazzi.
But the nigarde will speake of nigardnesse, and his heart will worke iniquitie, and do wickedly, and speake falsely against the Lord, to make emptie the hungrie soule, and to cause the drinke of the thirstie to faile.
7 Empisa z’omwonoonyi si za butuukirivu. Akola entegeka ezitali za butuukirivu, alyoke azikirize abaavu n’ebigambo eby’obulimba, ensonga y’abali mu kwetaaga ne bw’eba nga ntuufu.
For the weapons of the churle are wicked: hee deuiseth wicked counsels, to vndoe the poore with lying words: and to speake against the poore in iudgement.
8 Naye omuntu ow’ekitiibwa akola entegeka za kitiibwa, era ku bikolwa bye eby’ekitiibwa kw’anywerera.
But the liberall man will deuise of liberall things, and he will continue his liberalitie.
9 Mmwe abakazi abateefiirayo, mugolokoke muwulirize eddoboozi lyange; mmwe abawala abawulira nga muli wanywevu, muwulire bye ŋŋamba.
Rise vp, ye women that are at ease: heare my voyce, ye carelesse daughters: hearken to my wordes.
10 Mu mwaka gumu oba n’okusingawo, mmwe abawulira nga muli wanywevu, mulitya, amakungula g’emizabbibu galifa, n’amakungula g’ebibala tegalijja.
Yee women, that are carelesse, shall be in feare aboue a yeere in dayes: for the vintage shall faile, and the gatherings shall come no more.
11 Mutye mmwe abakazi abateefiirayo, mukankane mmwe abawala abawulira nga muli wanywevu. Muggyeko engoye zammwe, mwesibe ebibukutu mu biwato byammwe.
Yee women, that are at ease, be astonied: feare, O yee carelesse women: put off the clothes: make bare, and girde sackcloth vpon the loynes.
12 Munakuwalire ennimiro ezaali zisanyusa, olw’emizabbibu egyabalanga,
Men shall lament for the teates, euen for the pleasant fieldes, and for the fruitefull vine.
13 n’olw’ensi ey’abantu bange, ensi eyamerangamu amaggwa ne katazamiti. Weewaawo mukaabire ennyumba zonna ezaali ez’amasanyu, na kino ekibuga ekyali eky’amasanyu.
Vpon the lande of my people shall growe thornes and briers: yea, vpon all the houses of ioye in the citie of reioysing,
14 Weewaawo ekigo kirirekebwawo, ekibuga ekirimu oluyoogaano kirifuuka kifulukwa. Ebigo n’eminaala birifuuka ebitagasa ennaku zonna, ekifo ekisanyusa endogoyi, eddundiro ly’ebisibo,
Because the palace shalbe forsaken, and the noise of the citie shalbe left: the towre and fortresse shalbe dennes for euer, and the delite of wilde asses, and a pasture for flockes,
15 okutuusa Omwoyo lw’alitufukibwako okuva waggulu, n’eddungu ne lifuuka ennimiro engimu, n’ennimiro engimu n’erabika ng’ekibira.
Vntill the Spirit be powred vpon vs from aboue, and the wildernes become a fruitfull fielde, and the plenteous fielde be counted as a forest.
16 Obwenkanya bulituula mu ddungu, n’obutuukirivu bulibeera mu nnimiro engimu.
And iudgement shall dwel in the desert, and iustice shall remaine in the fruitfull fielde.
17 Ekibala ky’obutuukirivu kiriba mirembe, n’ekiriva mu butuukirivu kiriba kusiriikirira na bwesige emirembe gyonna.
And the worke of iustice shall bee peace, euen the worke of iustice and quietnesse, and assurance for euer.
18 Abantu bange balibeera mu bifo eby’emirembe, mu maka amateefu mu bifo eby’okuwummuliramu ebitatawaanyizibwa.
And my people shall dwell in the tabernacle of peace, and in sure dwellings, and in safe resting places.
19 Omuzira ne bwe guligwa ne gukuba ekibira okukimalawo, n’ekibuga ne kiggirwawo ddala,
When it haileth, it shall fall on the forest, and the citie shall be set in the lowe place.
20 ggwe oliraba omukisa, ng’osiga ensigo y’oku migga gyonna, n’ente zo n’endogoyi zo ne zirya nga zeeyagala.
Blessed are ye that sowe vpon all waters, and driue thither the feete of the oxe and the asse.
