Isaaya 44
1 “Naye kaakano ggwe Yakobo omuweereza wange, wuliriza, ggwe Isirayiri gwe nalonda.
And now, Jacob, my seruaunt, here thou, and Israel, whom I chees.
2 Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama oyo, eyakutonda era eyakubumba mu lubuto, ajja kukuyamba. Totya ggwe Yakobo, omuweereza wange, ggwe Yesuruni gwe nalonda.
The Lord makynge and foryyuynge thee, thin helpere fro the wombe, seith these thingis, My seruaunt, Jacob, nyle thou drede, and thou moost riytful, whom Y chees.
3 Kubanga ndifuka amazzi ku ttaka eririna ennyonta n’enzizi ku ttaka ekkalu. Ndifuka Omwoyo wange ku zadde lyo, era n’omukisa gwange ku bazzukulu bo.
For Y schal schede out watris on the thirsti, and floodis on the dry lond; Y schal schede out my spirit on thi seed, and my blessyng on thi generacioun.
4 Era balimera ng’omuddo ku mabbali g’enzizi, babe ng’emiti egiri ku mabbali g’emigga.
And thei schulen buriowne among erbis, as salewis bisidis rennynge watris.
5 Omu aligamba nti, ‘Nze ndi wa Mukama,’ n’omulala ne yeeyita erinnya lya Yakobo, n’omulala ne yeewandiikako nti, ‘Wa Mukama,’ ne yeetuuma Isirayiri.
This man schal seie, Y am of the Lord, and he schal clepe in the name of Jacob; and this man schal write with his hoond to the Lord, and schal be licned in the name of Israel.
6 “Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama kabaka wa Isirayiri era Omununuzi we, Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye: Nze w’olubereberye era nze nkomererayo era tewali Katonda mulala we ndi.
The Lord, kyng of Israel, and ayenbiere therof, the Lord of oostis seith these thingis, Y am the firste and Y am the laste, and with outen me is no God.
7 Ani afaanana nga nze, akirangirire, eyali asobola okumanya n’alangirira ebigenda okubaawo okuviira ddala ku ntandikwa? Leka batubuulire ebigenda okubaawo.
Who is lijk me? clepe he, and telle, and declare ordre to me, sithen Y made elde puple; telle he to hem thingis to comynge, and that schulen be.
8 Temutya wadde okuggwaamu amaanyi. Saakirangirira ne ntegeeza ebigenda okujja? Mmwe bajulirwa bange. Eriyo Katonda omulala okuggyako nze? Nedda. Tewali Lwazi lulala, sirina lwe mmanyi.”
Nyle ye drede, nether be ye disturblid; fro that tyme Y made thee for to here, and Y telde; ye ben my witnessis. Whethir a God is with out me, and a formere, whom Y knew not?
9 Abo abakola bakatonda abakole n’emikono tebaliimu nsa, era ebyo bye basanyukira okukola tebirina kye bigasa. Abajulirwa baabwe tebalaba so tebalina kye bamanyi, balyoke bakwatibwe ensonyi.
Alle the fourmeris of an idol ben no thing, and the moost louyd thingis of hem schulen not profite; thei ben witnessis of tho, that tho seen not, nether vndurstonden, that thei be schent.
10 Ani akola Katonda omubajje oba asaanuusa ekifaananyi ekyole ekitaliiko kye kiyamba?
Who fourmyde a god, and yetide an ymage, not profitable to ony thing?
11 Laba ye ne banne balikwatibwa ensonyi. N’ababazzi nabo bantu buntu. Leka bonna bakuŋŋaane, banjolekere; balikwatibwa ensonyi n’entiisa. Ensonyi ziribatta bonna era bagwemu entiisa.
Lo! alle the parteneris therof schulen be schent; for the smythis ben of men. Whanne alle schulen come, thei schulen stonde, and schulen drede, and schulen be schent togidere.
12 Omuweesi akwata ekitundu ky’ekyuma n’akiyisa mu manda, agaliko omuliro. Akikolako n’akitereeza n’ennyondo mu maanyi ge. Enjala emuluma, n’aggwaamu amaanyi, tanywa mazzi era akoowa.
A smith wrouyte with a file; he fourmyde it in coolis, and in hameris, and he wrouyte with the arm of his strengthe. He schal be hungri, and he schal faile; he schal not drynke watre, and he schal be feynt.
13 Omubazzi akozesa olukoba okupima olubaawo era n’alamba n’ekkalaamu. Akinyiriza ne landa, n’akiramba kyonna n’ekyuma ekigera, n’akikolamu ekifaananyi ky’omuntu ng’omuntu bw’afaanana, kiryoke kiteekebwe mu nnyumba.
A carpenter stretchide forth a reule, he fourmyde it with an adese; he made it in the corner places, and he turnede it in cumpas; and he made the ymage of a man, as a fair man, dwellynge in the hous.
14 Atema emivule oba n’addira enzo oba omuyovu n’agusimba oba n’aguleka gukule n’emiti mu kibira, oba n’asimba enkanaga, enkuba n’egikuza.
He kittide doun cedris, he took an hawthorn, and an ook, that stood among the trees of the forest; he plauntide a pyne apple tre, which he nurschide with reyn,
15 Abantu bagukozesa ng’enku, ezimu n’azitwala n’azikozesa okukuma omuliro ne yeebugumya. Akuma omuliro n’afumba emigaati. Naye ekitundu ekirala akikolamu katonda n’amusinza, akola ekifaananyi ekikole n’emikono n’akivuunamira.
and it was maad in to fier to men. He took of tho, and was warmed, and he brente, and bakide looues; but of the residue he wrouyte a god, and worschipide it, and he made a grauun ymage, and he was bowid bifore that.
16 Ekitundu ky’olubaawo akyokya mu muliro, ekitundu ekirala akyokesa ennyama n’agirya n’akutta. Ayotako n’abuguma nga bw’agamba nti, “Mbugumye, omuliro ngutegedde!”
He brente the myddil therof with fier, and of the myddil therof he sethide fleischis, and eet; he sethide potage, and was fillid; and he was warmed, and he seide, Wel!
17 Ekitundu ekisigaddewo akikolamu katonda, ekifaananyi ekikole n’emikono, era n’akivuunamira n’akisinza n’akyegayirira n’agamba nti, “Mponya, kubanga ggwe katonda wange.”
Y am warmed; Y siy fier. Forsothe the residue therof he made a god, and a grauun ymage to hym silf; he is bowide bifore that, and worschipith that, and bisechith, and seith, Delyuere thou me, for thou art my god.
18 Tebaliiko kye bamanyi so tebaliiko kye bategeera, amaaso gaabwe gazibye n’okuyinza ne batayinza kulaba, n’okutegeera ne batayinza kutegeera.
Thei knewen not, nether vndurstoden, for thei han foryete, that her iye se not, and that thei vndurstonde not with her herte.
19 Tewali n’omu ayimirira n’alowooza, tewali n’omu amanyi wadde ategeera okugamba nti, “Ekimu ekyokubiri ekyakwo nkyokezza mu muliro, era ne nfumba n’obugaati ku manda gaakyo, njokezzaako n’ennyama n’engirya. Ekitundu kyakyo kifuuse eky’omuzizo? Nvuunamire ekisiki ky’omuti?”
Thei bythenken not in her soule, nether thei knowen, nether thei feelen, that thei seie, Y brente the myddil therof in fier, and Y bakide looues on the coolis therof, and Y sethide fleischis, and eet; and of the residue therof schal Y make an idol? schal Y falle doun bifore the stok of a tree?
20 Alya vvu. Omutima gwe gumulimbalimba, tasobola kwerokola wadde okwebuuza nti, “Kino ekiri mu mukono gwange ogwa ddyo si bulimba?”
A part therof is aische; an vnwijs herte schal worschipe it, and he schal not delyuere his soule, nether he schal seie, A strong leesyng is in my riythond.
21 “Jjukira ebintu bino, ggwe Yakobo; oli muweereza wange ggwe Isirayiri. Nze nakubumba, oli muweereza wange, ggwe Isirayiri sirikwerabira.
Thou, Jacob, and Israel, haue mynde of these thingis, for thou art my seruaunt; Y formyde thee, Israel, thou art my seruaunt; thou schalt not foryete me.
22 Ebyonoono byo mbyezeewo n’embisenda ng’ekire, n’ebibi byo ne mbyerawo ng’olufu olw’omu makya. Komawo gye ndi kubanga nakununula.”
Y dide awei thi wickidnessis as a cloude, and thi synnes as a myist; turne thou ayen to me, for Y ayenbouyte thee.
23 Yimba n’essanyu ggwe eggulu kubanga ekyo Mukama yakikoze. Muleekaane n’essanyu mmwe abali wansi ku nsi. Muyimbe mmwe ensozi, mmwe ebibira na buli muti ogulimu. Mukama anunudde Yakobo era yeegulumiriza mu Isirayiri.
Ye heuenes, herie, for the Lord hath do merci; the laste partis of erth, synge ye hertli song; hillis, sowne ye preisyng; the forest and ech tre therof, herie God; for the Lord ayenbouyte Jacob, and Israel schal haue glorie.
24 “Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Omulokozi wo, eyakutondera mu lubuto. “Nze Mukama, eyatonda ebintu byonna, eyabamba eggulu nzekka, eyayanjuluza ensi obwomu,
The Lord, thin ayenbiere, and thi fourmere fro the wombe, seith these thingis, Y am the Lord, makynge alle thingis, and Y aloone stretche forth heuenes, and stablische the erthe, and noon is with me;
25 asazaamu abalaguzi bye balagudde era abalogo abafuula abasirusiru. Asaabulula eby’abagezi n’afuula bye balowoozezza okuba eby’obusirusiru.
and Y make voide the signes of false dyuynours, and Y turne in to woodnesse dyuynours, that dyuynen by sacrifices offrid to feendis; and Y turne wise men bacward, and Y make her science fonned.
26 Anyweza ekigambo ky’omuweereza we n’atuukiriza obubaka bwa babaka bange. “Ayogera ku Yerusaalemi nti, ‘Kirituulibwamu,’ ne ku bibuga bya Yuda nti, ‘Birizimbibwa,’ ne ku bifo ebyazika nti, ‘Ndibizzaawo.’
And the Lord reisith the word of his seruaunt, and fillith the councel of hise messangeris; and Y seie, Jerusalem, thou schalt be enhabitid; and to the citees of Juda, Ye schulen be bildid, and Y schal reise the desertis therof;
27 Agamba amazzi g’obuziba bwe nnyanja nti, ‘Kalira, era ndikaliza emigga gyo.’
and Y seie to the depthe, Be thou desolat, and Y shal make drie thi floodis;
28 Ayogera ku Kuulo nti, ‘Musumba wange era alituukiriza bye njagala byonna.’ Alyogera ku Yerusaalemi nti, ‘Kizimbibwe,’ ne ku yeekaalu nti, ‘Emisingi gyayo gizimbibwe.’”
and Y seie to Cirus, Thou art my scheepherde, and thou schalt fille al my wille; and Y seie to Jerusalem, Thou schalt be bildid; and to the temple, Thou schalt be foundid.
