Isaaya 42
1 Laba omuweereza wange gwe mpanirira, omulonde wange gwe nsanyukira ennyo. Ndimuwa Omwoyo wange era alireeta obwenkanya eri amawanga.
Khangela inceku yami, engiyisekelayo, umkhethwa wami, othokoza ngaye umphefumulo wami; ngibekile uMoya wami phezu kwakhe; uzavezela izizwe isahlulelo.
2 Talireekaana wadde okuyimusa eddoboozi lye mu luguudo.
Kayikumemeza, kayikuphakamisa ilizwi, kayikwenza ilizwi lakhe lizwakale esitaladeni.
3 Talimenya lumuli lubetentefu oba okuzikiza olutambi olwaka empola ennyo; mu bwesigwa alireeta obwenkanya.
Umhlanga ofecekileyo kayikuwephula, lentambo yesibane ethunqayo kayikuyicitsha; uzaveza isahlulelo ngeqiniso.
4 Taliremererwa oba okuggwaamu essuubi okutuusa ng’aleesewo obutebenkevu ku nsi. N’ebizinga eby’ewala biririndirira amateeka ge.
Kayikudinwa, kayikwephulwa, aze amise isahlulelo emhlabeni; lezihlenge zizalindela umlayo wakhe.
5 Bw’atyo bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda, eyatonda eggulu n’alibamba. Eyayanjuluza ensi ne byonna ebigivaamu; awa omukka abantu baakwo era n’obulamu eri bonna abagitambulirako.
Utsho njalo uNkulunkulu iNkosi, owadala amazulu, wawelula, owendlala umhlaba lalokho okuphuma kuwo, onika abantu abakuwo ukuphefumula, lomoya kulabo abahamba kuwo.
6 “Nze Mukama, nakuyita mu butuukirivu. Ndikukwata ku mukono era ndikukuuma. Ndikufuula okuba endagaano eri abantu, era omusana eri bannamawanga.
Mina Nkosi ngikubizile ngokulunga, ngizabamba isandla sakho, ngikulondoloze, ngikunike ube yisivumelwano sabantu, ube yikukhanya kwabezizwe.
7 Okuzibula amaaso g’abazibe, okuta abasibe okuva mu makomera n’okuggya abo abali mu bunnya, abo abali mu kizikiza.
Ukuthi uvule amehlo eziphofu, ukuthi ukhuphe izibotshwa entolongweni, labahlezi emnyameni endlini yezibotshwa.
8 “Nze Mukama, eryo lye linnya lyange, n’ekitiibwa kyange sirikiwa mulala, newaakubadde ettendo lyange okukiwa bakatonda abalala.
NgiyiNkosi, lelo libizo lami; lodumo lwami kangiyikulunika omunye, kumbe indumiso yami ezithombeni ezibaziweyo.
9 Laba, ebyo bye nagamba nti biribaawo bituuse, kaakano mbabuulira ku bigenda okujja; mbibategeeza nga tebinnabaawo.”
Khangela, izinto zamandulo sezifikile; sengimemezela izinto ezintsha; zingakahlumi ngilitshela ngazo.
10 Muyimbire Mukama oluyimba oluggya, ettendo lye okuva ku nkomerero y’ensi! Mmwe abasaabala ku nnyanja ne byonna ebigirimu, mmwe ebizinga ne bonna ababibeeramu.
Hlabelelani iNkosi ingoma entsha, indumiso zayo kusukela emkhawulweni womhlaba; lina elehlela elwandle, lokugcwala kwalo, zihlenge, labahlali bazo.
11 Leka eddungu n’ebibuga byamu biyimuse amaloboozi gaabyo, ebyalo Kedali mw’atuula. Leka abantu b’e Seera bayimbe n’essanyu. Leka baleekaanire waggulu ku ntikko z’ensozi.
Kakuthi inkangala lemizi yayo kuphakamise ilizwi, lemizi uKedari ahlala kuyo; kakuthi abahlali bedwala bahlabelele, bamemeze besengqongeni yezintaba.
12 Leka Mukama bamuwe ekitiibwa era balangirire ettendo lye mu bizinga.
Kabayinike udumo iNkosi, bamemezele indumiso yayo ezihlengeni.
13 Mukama, anafuluma okulwana ng’omutabaazi ow’amaanyi, era ng’omutabaazi ow’amaanyi alijja yeeswanta, n’okuleekaana ng’alangirira olutalo. Era aliwangula abalabe be.
INkosi izaphuma njengeqhawe, ivuselele ukutshiseka njengendoda yempi; izamemeza, yebo iklabalale, izinqobe izitha zayo.
14 “Ebbanga ggwanvu nga siriiko kye ŋŋamba, nga nsirise neekuumye. Naye okufaanana ng’omukazi alumwa okuzaala, nkaaba, mpejjawejja era nzisa ebikkowe.
Kwasendulo ngithule, ngathi zwi, ngazibamba; ngizakhala njengowesifazana obelethayo; ngiphefuzele, ngikhefuzele kanyekanye.
15 Ndizikiriza ensozi n’obusozi, egyo emiddo gyakwo gyonna ndi wakugiwotosa. Era ndikaza ebinywa byabwe byonna n’emigga ndigifuula ebizinga.
Ngizabhidliza izintaba lamaqaqa, ngomise konke okuluhlaza kwazo, ngenze imifula ibe yizihlenge, ngomise amachibi.
16 Era ndikulembera abantu bange abazibe ba maaso mu kkubo lye batamanyi n’abayise mbaluŋŋamize mu makubo ge batamanyidde. Ndifuula ekizikiza okuba omusana mu maaso gaabwe n’ebifo ebizibu okuyitamu ndibirongoosa. Ebyo by’ebintu bye ndikola, sirireka bantu bange.
Njalo ngizakwenza iziphofu zihambe ngendlela ezingayaziyo, ngizikhokhelele emikhondweni ezingayaziyo; ngizakwenza umnyama ube yikukhanya phambi kwazo, lezinto ezigobileyo ziqonde; lezizinto ngizazenza kuzo, ngingaziyekeli.
17 Naye abo abeesiga bakatonda abalala, ababagamba nti, ‘Mwe bakatonda baffe,’ balikwasibwa ensonyi, era baligobebwa, mu buswavu obungi.”
Bazabuyiselwa emuva, bayangeke ngenhloni abathembela ezithombeni ezibaziweyo, abathi ezithombeni ezibunjwe ngokuncibilikisa: Lingonkulunkulu bethu.
18 “Muwulire mmwe bakiggala, mutunule mmwe bamuzibe, mulabe.
Zwanini lina zacuthe, lani ziphofu likhangele, ukuze libone.
19 Ani muzibe okuggyako omuweereza wange, oba kiggala okuggyako omubaka wange gwe ntuma? Eriyo eyaziba amaaso asinga oyo eyeewaayo gye ndi, oba omuzibe ng’omuweereza wa Mukama?
Ngubani oyisiphofu ngaphandle kwenceku yami, kumbe oyisacuthe njengesithunywa sami engisithumayo? Ngubani oyisiphofu njengopheleleyo, loyisiphofu njengenceku yeNkosi?
20 Olabye ebintu bingi naye tobifuddeko, amatu go maggule naye tolina ky’owulira.”
Wena ubona izinto ezinengi, kodwa ungaziqaphelisi; yena uvula izindlebe, kodwa kezwa.
21 Kyasanyusa Mukama olw’obulungi obw’obutuukirivu bwe okukuza amateeka ge n’okugassaamu ekitiibwa.
INkosi iyathokoza ngenxa yokulunga kwayo; ikhulise umlayo, iwenze ube lodumo.
22 Naye bano, bantu be, ababbibwa ne banyagibwa bonna ne basibibwa mu binnya oba abasibibwa mu makomera. Bafuuka munyago nga tewali n’omu abanunula, bafuuliddwa abanyage nga tewali n’omu agamba nti, “Bateebwe baddeyo.”
Kodwa laba ngabantu abantshontshelwayo baphangwa, bonke bathiyiwe emigodini, bafihlwa ezintolongweni; bangabokuphangwa, njalo kungekho okhululayo; bayimpango, njalo kungabikho othi: Buyisela.
23 Ani ku mmwe anaawuliriza kino, oba anaafaayo ennyo n’awuliriza mu biro ebigenda okujja?
Ngubani phakathi kwenu ozabeka indlebe kulokhu, ozalalela azwe esikhathini esizayo?
24 Ani eyawaayo Yakobo okuba omunyago ne Isirayiri eri abanyazi? Teyali Mukama gwe twayonoona? Ekyo yakikola kubanga tebaagoberera makubo ge. Tebaagondera mateeka ge.
Ngubani owanikela uJakobe ekuphangweni, loIsrayeli kubaphangi? Kwakungeyisiyo yini iNkosi esone kuyo? Ngoba bengavumanga ukuhamba endleleni zayo, njalo bengalalelanga umlayo wayo.
25 Kyeyava abafukako obusungu bwe obubuubuuka n’obulumi bw’entalo. Beebungululwa ennimi z’omuliro naye tebaategeera. Gwabookya naye ne batakissaako mwoyo.
Ngakho yathululela phezu kwakhe ukuvutha kolaka lwayo, lamandla empi; njalo kwamthungela ngomlilo inhlangothi zonke, kodwa kakwazanga; kwamtshisa, kodwa kakubekanga enhliziyweni.
