Isaaya 4

1 Ekiseera ekyo bwe kirituuka abakazi musanvu balyekwata omusajja omu nga boogera nti, Tuyitibwenga erinnya lyo, otuggyeko ekivume. Tunenoonyezanga emmere yaffe era twenoonyeze n’ebyokwambala.

And seven women have taken hold on one man, In that day, saying, “We eat our own bread, And we put on our own raiment, Only, let your name be called over us, Remove our reproach.”

2 Ku lunaku luli ettabi lya Mukama Katonda liriba ddungi era lya kitiibwa, era n’ebibala by’ensi biryeyagaza nnyo Abayisirayiri abaasigalawo.

In that day is the Shoot of YHWH for desire and for glory, And the fruit of the earth For excellence and for beauty to the escaped of Israel.

3 Era buli alisigala mu Sayuuni na buli alisigala mu Yerusaalemi aliyitibwa mutukuvu, buli muntu alibalirwa mu balamu mu Yerusaalemi.

And it has been, he who is left in Zion, And he who is remaining in Jerusalem, “Holy” is said of him, Of everyone who is written for life in Jerusalem.

4 Mukama aliggyawo obutali butuukirivu bw’abakazi ba Sayuuni, era n’omwoyo ogusala ensonga n’omwoyo ogwokya, alisangulawo amatondo g’omusaayi mu Yerusaalemi.

If the Lord has washed away The filth of daughters of Zion, And purges the blood of Jerusalem from her midst, By the spirit of judgment, and by the spirit of burning.

5 Olwo Mukama Katonda atondewo ekire mu budde obw’emisana, n’omukka n’okumasaamasa ng’omuliro ogwaka ekiro ku kifo kyonna eky’olusozi Sayuuni ne ku bantu bonna abakuŋŋaaniddeko; kubanga ku byonna era wonna kunaaba kubikkiddwako ekitiibwa kya Katonda.

Then YHWH has created Over every fixed place of Mount Zion, And over her convocations, A cloud by day, and smoke, And the shining of a flaming fire by night, That over all glory—a safeguard,

6 Era kiribeera ekibikka n’ekisiikirize ekiziyiza ebbugumu ly’emisana, era ekiddukiro omwewogomebwa kibuyaga n’enkuba.

And a covering may be, For a shadow from drought by day, And for a refuge, and for a hiding place, From inundation and from rain!
