Isaaya 51
1 “Mumpulirize, mmwe abanoonya obutuukirivu, mmwe abanoonya Mukama: Mutunuulire olwazi lwe mwatemebwako, n’obunnya bw’ekirombe gye mwasimibwa.
Lalelani kimi, lina elidingisisa ukulunga, lina elidinga iNkosi; khangelani edwaleni elacezulwa kulo, lemlindini wegodi elagejwa kuwo.
2 Mulowooze ku Ibulayimu jjajjammwe ne Saala eyabazaala. Kubanga we namuyitira yali bw’omu ne mmuwa omukisa ne mmwaza.
Khangelani kuAbrahama uyihlo, lakuSara owalizalayo; ngoba ngambiza eyedwa, ngambusisa, ngamandisa.
3 Kubanga ddala Mukama alikubagiza Sayuuni; akwatirwe ekisa ebifo byakyo byonna ebyazika era afuule olukoola lwe lwonna okuba Adeni, n’eddungu libeere ng’ennimiro ya Mukama; Essanyu n’okujaguza biryoke bibeere omwo, okwebaza n’amaloboozi ag’okuyimba.
Ngoba iNkosi izayiduduza iZiyoni, iduduze wonke amanxiwa ayo, njalo izakwenza inkangala yayo ifanane leEdeni, logwadule lwayo lufanane lensimu yeNkosi; injabulo lentokozo kuzatholakala kuyo, ukubonga lelizwi lokuhlabelela.
4 “Mumpulirize, mmwe abantu bange; era muntegere okutu mmwe ensi yange. Kubanga etteeka lifuluma okuva gye ndi, obwenkanya bwange bubeere omusana eri amawanga.
Lalelani kimi, bantu bami, libeke indlebe kimi, sizwe sami; ngoba umlayo uzaphuma kimi, njalo ngizakwenza ukwahlulela kwami kuphumule kube yikukhanya kwabantu.
5 Obutuukirivu bwange busembera mangu nnyo, obulokozi bwange buli mu kkubo. Era omukono gwange gujja kuleeta obwenkanya eri amawanga. Ebizinga birinnindirira era birindirire n’essuubi omukono gwange okubirokola.
Ukulunga kwami kuseduze, usindiso lwami luphumile, lengalo zami zizakwehlulela abantu; izihlenge zingilindele, zithembele engalweni yami.
6 Muyimuse amaaso gammwe eri eggulu, mutunuulire ensi wansi! Kubanga eggulu lirivaawo ng’omukka n’ensi ekaddiwe ng’ekyambalo. Abagituulamu balifa ng’ensowera. Naye obulokozi bwange bunaabeereranga emirembe gyonna, so n’obutuukirivu bwange tebujjulukukenga.
Phakamiselani amehlo enu emazulwini, likhangele emhlabeni phansi; ngoba amazulu azanyamalala njengentuthu, lomhlaba uguge njengesembatho, labahlezi kuwo bafe ngokunjalo; kodwa usindiso lwami luzakuba phakade, lokulunga kwami kakuyikuchithwa.
7 “Mumpulirize, mmwe abamanyi obutuukirivu, eggwanga eririna amateeka gange mu mitima gyammwe. Temutya kuvumibwa bantu wadde okukeŋŋentererwa olw’okuyomba kwabwe.
Lalelani kimi, lina elazi ukulunga, abantu abamlayo wami usenhliziyweni yabo; lingesabi ukusola kwabantu, kumbe lethuswe yizithuko zabo.
8 Kubanga ennyenje ziribalya nga bwe zirya ebyambalo. N’obuwuka bubalye ng’obulya ebyoya by’endiga. Naye obutuukirivu bwange bunaabeereranga ennaku zonna. Obulokozi bwange bunywere emirembe gyonna.”
Ngoba inundu izabadla njengesembatho, lempethu ibadle njengoboya bezimvu, kodwa ukulunga kwami kuzakuba laphakade, losindiso lwami esizukulwaneni lezizukulwana.
9 Zuukuka, zuukuka oyimuke otuyambe Ayi Mukama Katonda. Kozesa amaanyi go otuyambe. Gakozese nga edda. Si ggwe wuuyo eyatemaatemamu Lakabu obufiififi? Si ye ggwe eyafumita ogusota?
Vuka, vuka, uzembathise amandla, wena ngalo yeNkosi; vuka njengensukwini zendulo, ezizukulwaneni zaphakade. Kawusuwe yini lowo owaquma iRahabi, wagwaza umgobho?
10 Si ggwe wuuyo eyakaliza ennyanja, amazzi ag’obuziba obuwanvu ennyo ne gafuuka ekkubo abantu be wanunula bayitewo?
Kawusuwe yini lowo owomisa ulwandle, amanzi enziki enkulu, owenza ukujula kolwandle kwaba yindlela yokuchapha kwabahlengiweyo?
11 N’abo Mukama be wawonya balikomawo ne bajja mu Sayuuni nga bayimba. Essanyu ery’emirembe n’emirembe liriba nga ngule ku mitwe gyabwe. Balisanyuka ne bajaguza; ennaku n’okusinda bibadduke.
Ngakho abahlengiweyo beNkosi bazaphenduka, beze eZiyoni ngokuhlabelela; lentokozo elaphakade izakuba phezu kwekhanda labo; bazazuza intokozo lenjabulo, usizi lokububula kuzabaleka.
12 “Nze, nze mwene, nze nzuuno abawa amaanyi. Mmwe baani abatya omuntu alifa, n’omwana w’omuntu ali ng’omuddo,
Mina, mina nginguye oliduduzayo; ungubani wena ozakwesaba umuntu ozakufa, lendodana yomuntu ezakwenziwa ibe njengotshani?
13 ne weerabira Mukama Omutonzi wo eyabamba eggulu, n’ateekawo n’emisingi gy’ensi, ebbanga lyonna ne mubeera mu kutya obusungu bw’abo abakunyigiriza, oyo eyemalidde mu kuzikiriza? Kubanga kale buliruddawa obulabe bw’oyo abanyigiriza?
Ubusukhohlwa iNkosi, umenzi wakho, eyendlala amazulu, yabeka izisekelo zomhlaba, uqhubeka usesaba usuku lonke ngenxa yentukuthelo yomcindezeli, kungathi uzimisele ukuchitha? Ingaphi-ke intukuthelo yomcindezeli?
14 Abo be bawamba ne basibibwa banaatera okuteebwa, tebalifiira mu bunnya, era tebalibulwa mmere gye balya.
Isibotshwa esithunjiweyo siyaphangisa ukuze sikhululwe; singafeli emgodini, lokudla kwaso kungasweleki.
15 Kubanga nze Mukama Katonda wo, asiikuula amayengo g’ennyanja ne gawuluguma: Mukama ow’Eggye lye linnya lye.
Ngoba ngiyiNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho eyavusa ulwandle ukuze amagagasi alo ahlokome; iNkosi yamabandla libizo layo.
16 Ntadde ebigambo byange mu kamwa ko, era nkubisse mu kisiikirize ky’omukono gwange. Nze nakola eggulu ne nteekawo emisingi gy’ensi; era nze wuuyo agamba Sayuuni nti, ‘Muli bantu bange!’”
Njalo ngifakile amazwi ami emlonyeni wakho, ngakusibekela emthunzini wesandla sami, ukuze ngihlanyele amazulu, ngibeke izisekelo zomhlaba, ngithi kuyo iZiyoni: Wena uyisizwe sami.
17 Zuukuka, zuukuka, oyimirire ggwe Yerusaalemi eyanywa okuva eri Mukama ekikompe eky’obusungu bwe, eyanywa n’omaliramu ddala ekibya ekitagaza.
Vuka, vuka, usukume, Jerusalema, wena onathe esandleni seNkosi inkezo yolaka lwayo, wanatha inzece zenkezo yokudengezela, wazikhoca.
18 Ku baana aboobulenzi bonna be yazaala tewali n’omu wa kumukulembera. Ku baana bonna aboobulenzi be yakuza tewali n’omu wa kumukwata ku mukono.
Kakho ongayikhokhela kuwo wonke amadodana ewazeleyo; njalo kakho ongayibamba ngesandla kuwo wonke amadodana ewakhulisileyo.
19 Ebintu bino ebibiri bikuguddeko ani anaakunakuwalirako? Okuzika n’okuzikirira, enjala, n’ekitala, ani anaakubeesabeesa?
Lokhu kokubili kukwehlele, ngubani ozakuzwela usizi? Incithakalo, lokubhujiswa, lendlala, lenkemba; ngizakududuza ngobani?
20 Batabani bo bazirise, bagudde ku buli nsonda y’oluguudo ng’engabi egudde mu kitimba. Babuutikiddwa ekiruyi kya Mukama, n’okunenyezebwa kwa Katonda wo.
Amadodana akho aphelelwe ngamandla, alele esihlokweni sezitalada zonke, njengenkunzi yendle embuleni; agcwele ulaka lweNkosi, ukukhuza kukaNkulunkulu wakho.
21 Noolwekyo wulira kino ggwe, atamidde naye si lwa mwenge.
Ngakho khathesi zwana lokhu, wena ohluphekayo lodakiweyo, kodwa hatshi ngewayini.
22 Bw’atyo bw’ayogera Mukama Ayinzabyonna, Katonda wo alwanirira abantu be. “Laba mbaggyeeko ekikompe kye nabawa olw’ekiruyi kye nalina, ekyabatagaza. Temuliddayo kukinywa nate.
Itsho njalo iNkosi yakho, uJehova loNkulunkulu wakho olabhelela udaba lwabantu bakhe: Khangela, ngisusile esandleni sakho inkezo yokudengezela, inzece zenkezo yolaka lwami, kawusayikuyinatha futhi.
23 Ndikiteeka mu mikono gy’abo abaababonyaabonya abaabagamba nti, ‘Mugwe wansi mwegolole tubatambulireko.’ Emigongo gyammwe gibe ng’ettaka, ng’oluguudo olw’okulinnyirira.”
Kodwa ngizayibeka esandleni salabo abakuhluphayo, abathe emphefumulweni wakho: Khothama, ukuze sedlule phezulu; usubeke umhlana wakho njengomhlabathi, lanjengesitalada kwabadlula phezulu.
