< Isaaya 46 >
1 Beri avunnama, Nebo akutamye! Ebifaananyi bya bakatonda baabwe biteekeddwa ku nsolo ez’omu nsiko, era ne ku nte. Ebifaananyi bya bakatonda baabwe migugu mizito ddala ku ndogoyi ezikooye.
UBeli uyakhothama, uNebo uyazithoba; izithombe zabo zazingezezifuyo, njalo zazingezezinkomo; imithwalo yenu ethwelweyo ingumthwalo enyamazaneni ediniweyo.
2 Bikutamye byonna bivuunamye. Tebiyinza kuyamba ku mbeera, byo byennyini bitwaliddwa mu busibe.
Bayaguqa, bakhothame kanyekanye, kabalakophula umthwalo, kodwa bona ngokwabo baya ekuthunjweni.
3 “Mumpulire mmwe, ennyumba ya Yakobo n’abantu bonna abasigaddewo mu nnyumba ya Isirayiri. Mmwe be nnalera okuva lwe mwava mu lubuto, be nasitula okuva lwe mwazaalibwa.
Ngilalela, ndlu kaJakobe, lensali yonke yendlu kaIsrayeli, abathwalwa yimi kwasesibelethweni, abasingathwe kwasesizalweni.
4 Ne mu bukadde bwammwe nzija kusigala nga ye nze Nzuuyo. Ne bwe muliba mulina envi nnaabasitulanga. Nze nabakola era nze nnaabawekanga. Nnaabasitulanga era nnaabanunulanga.
Kuze kube sekugugeni nginguye; yebo, kuze kube sebumpungeni mina ngizalithwala; mina ngenzile, mina-ke ngizaphakamisa, ngitsho mina ngithwale, ngikhulule.
5 “Ani gwe mulinfaananya era gwe mulinnenkanya era gwe mulingerageranyaako tufaanane?
Lizangifananisa, lingilinganise, lingiqathanise lobani ukuze sifanane?
6 Eriyo abaggya zaabu ennyingi mu nsawo zaabwe ne bapima ne ffeeza ku minzaani. Olwo ne bapangisa omuweesi wa zaabu n’agiweesaamu katonda waabwe, ne bagwa wansi ne basinza.
Bathulula igolide esikhwameni, balinganise isiliva esilinganisweni, baqhatshe umkhandi akwenze unkulunkulu; bathi mbo phansi, yebo, bakhonze.
7 Katonda waabwe ne bamusitulira ku kibegabega, ne bamuwa ekifo w’anaayimiriranga. N’ayimirira awo, n’atava mu kifo kye. Oli ne bw’amukaabirira tayinza kumuddamu, tayinza kumuwonya mu mitawaana gye.
Bametshata ehlombe, bamthwale, bambeke endaweni yakhe, ame; angasuki endaweni yakhe. Yebo, umuntu ememeza kuye, kodwa kaphenduli, kamsindisi enkathazweni yakhe.
8 “Mujjukire kino mmwe, mulowooze mu mitima gyammwe. Mwekube mu kifuba, mmwe abajeemu.
Khumbulani lokhu, lizibonakalise liqinile; kubuyiseleni enhliziyweni, lina bahlamuki.
9 Mujjukire ebigambo ebyasooka eby’edda ennyo. Kubanga nze Katonda, teri mulala. Nze Katonda, teri ali nga nze;
Khumbulani izinto zakuqala zendulo; ngoba nginguNkulunkulu, njalo kakho omunye; nginguNkulunkulu, njalo kakho ofanana lami;
10 alanga ku ntandikwa ebigenda okubaawo. Okuva ku mirembe egy’edda ennyo, nalanga ebintu ebitannabaawo, nga ŋŋamba nti, ‘Enteekateeka zange zijja kubaawo era ndituukiriza byonna bye nategeka.’
engimemezela isiphetho kwasekuqaleni, njalo kusukela endulo izinto ezingakenziwa, ngisithi: Icebo lami lizakuma, njalo ngizakwenza yonke intokozo yami;
11 Mpita ekinyonyi ekikwakkula ebiramu ebirala. Omusajja ava ebuvanjuba mu nsi eyewala, anaakola bye njagala. Weewaawo njogedde era nnaatuukiriza. Nga bwe nategeka bwe nnaakola.
engibiza inyoni edla inyama ivela empumalanga, umuntu wecebo lami evela elizweni elikhatshana; yebo, ngikhulumile, yebo, ngizakufeza; ngikumisile, yebo, ngizakwenza.
12 Mumpulirize mmwe abalina emitima emikakanyavu, abakyama ennyo ne bava mu kkubo ly’obutuukirivu.
Ngilalelani, lina abalenhliziyo eziqinileyo, lina elikhatshana lokulunga.
13 Nsembeza kumpi obutuukirivu bwange, tebuli wala. N’obulokozi bwange tebuulwewo. Ndireeta obulokozi mu Sayuuni, ne nzizaawo ekitiibwa kyange mu Isirayiri.”
Ngiyasondeza ukulunga kwami, kakuyikuba khatshana; losindiso lwami kaluyikuphuza; kodwa ngizanika usindiso eZiyoni, udumo lwami koIsrayeli.
