1 Abantu abatuukirivu bazikirira, naye tewali akirowoozako n’akatono. Abantu abeewaddeyo eri Katonda batwalibwa nga tewali n’afuddeyo kukirowoozaako. Kubanga omutuukirivu aggyibwawo olw’akabi akagenda okujja.
2 Ayingira mu mirembe n’afuna okuwummulira mu kufa kwe, ne bawummula ga beebase, abo abatambulira mu bugolokofu.
3 “Naye mmwe mujje musembere wano batabani b’omukazi omufumu ezzadde ly’omwenzi omukazi eyeetunda.
4 Muzannyira ku ani? Ani gwe mukongoola ne mumusoomooza? Temuli baana ba bujeemu, ezzadde eryobulimba?
5 Mwaka ne mwegombera wansi w’emiti na buli wansi wa buli muti oguyimiridde; mmwe abasaddaaka abaana bammwe mu biwonvu ne wansi w’enjatika z’enjazi.
6 Bakatonda bo ge mayinja amaweweevu gosinziza mu biwonvu, abo be babo, obusika bwo; abo b’ofukira ekiweebwayo ekyokunywa era n’ebiweebwayo eby’empeke. Nga weemalidde mu kukola bino byonna, olowooza nnyinza okusanyuka?
7 Mwambuka ku ntikko z’ensozi okwenda nga mugenze okuwaayo ssaddaaka.
8 Emabega w’enzigi zammwe we muteeka ebibumbe eby’obuwemu bye musinza. Mwandeka ne mukola eby’obuwemu mu bitanda byammwe ebigazi. Eyo gye mweyambulira ne mukola endagaano n’abo be mwagala be muleeta mu bitanda byammwe.
9 Ne weekuba kalifuuwa omuyitirivu ng’ogenda okutwala amafuta ag’omuzeeyituuni ewa Moleki katonda wo, n’otuma ababaka bo ewala ennyo banoonye bakatonda, kumpi batuuke n’emagombe. (Sheol )
10 Amakubo go gonna gakuteganya ne gakukooya nnyo naye teweegamba nako nti, ‘Nteganira ki atalina kyeŋŋanyurwa?’ Singa tewanoonya bikuzaamu maanyi, wandizirise.
11 “B’ani abo be watya n’otekemuka n’obawuliriza, n’olyoka olimba, nze n’otonzijukira n’akatono wadde okundowoozaako? Olw’okubanga nsirise n’esikunyega ky’ekikuyinudde n’onneerabira n’ompisaamu amaaso.
12 Nnaayolesa obutuukirivu bwo ne by’okola, naye tebigenda kukugasa.
13 Bw’okaabanga nga weetaaga obuyambi, leka bakatonda bo be wakuŋŋaanya bakununule; naye empewo eribatwala, omukka obukka abantu gwe bassa gulibaggirawo ddala bonna. Naye oyo anfuula ekiddukiro kye alirya ensi era alitwala olusozi lwange olutukuvu.”
14 Era kiryogerwa nti, “Muzimbe, muzimbe, mulongoose ekkubo! Muggyeewo enkonge zonna mu kkubo ly’abantu bange.”
15 Kubanga bw’atyo bw’ayogera oyo ali waggulu omugulumivu omulamu emirembe n’emirembe, ow’erinnya ettukuvu nti, “Ntuula mu kifo ekigulumivu ekitukuvu awamu n’oyo alina omwoyo oguboneredde ogwetoowaza, okuzzaamu amaanyi omwoyo gw’abakkakkamu, era n’ogw’abo ababoneredde.
16 Kubanga sirirumiriza bantu bange emirembe n’emirembe era siribasunguwalira bbanga lyonna. Kubanga omutima gw’omuntu gwandigwereddewo mu maaso gange nga ndaba, emmeeme y’omuntu nze gye nakola.
17 Olw’okwegomba kwe okw’obutali butuukirivu nnali nzijjudde obusungu. Namubonereza ne nkweka amaaso gange olw’obusungu obungi naye yeeyongera okugenda mu maaso mu makubo amabi.
18 Nalaba by’akola, naye ndimuwonya. Ndimuluŋŋamya ne muddiza emirembe era ne mbeesabeesa abo abakungubaga.
19 Mirembe, era mirembe, eri abo abali ewala n’eri abo abali okumpi, era ndibawonya,” bw’ayogera Mukama.
20 Naye ababi bali ng’ennyanja esiikuuse, eteyinza kutereera, ey’amayengo agasiikuula ebitosi n’ebitaka.
21 “Tewali mirembe, eri aboonoonyi,” bw’ayogera Katonda wange.
