Yeremiya 30
1 Kino kye kigambo kya Mukama ekyajjira Yeremiya nti,
The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,
2 “Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda wa Isirayiri nti, ‘Wandiika ku muzingo ebigambo byonna bye njogedde naawe.
Thus speaketh the LORD God of Israel, saying, Write for thee all the words that I have spoken to thee in a book.
3 Ennaku zijja, lwe ndikomyawo abantu bange Isirayiri ne Yuda okuva mu busibe, mbazzeeyo mu nsi gye nawa bajjajjaabwe babeere omwo,’ bw’ayogera Mukama.”
For lo, the days come, saith the LORD; that I will bring again the captivity of my people Israel and Judah, saith the LORD: and I will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they shall possess it.
4 Bino bye bigambo Mukama bye yayogera ebikwata ku Isirayiri ne Yuda nti,
And these [are] the words that the LORD spoke concerning Israel and concerning Judah.
5 “Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti, “‘Emiranga egy’okutya giwulirwa, bulabe teri mirembe.
For thus saith the LORD; We have heard a voice of trembling, of fear, and not of peace.
6 Mubuuze mulabe. Omusajja alumwa okuzaala? Kale lwaki ndaba buli musajja ow’amaanyi ng’atadde emikono gye ku lubuto ng’omukazi alumwa okuzaala, buli muntu mu maaso yenna asiiwuuse ng’agenda okufa?
Ask ye now, and see whether a man doth travail with child? Why do I see every man with his hands on his loins, as a woman in travail, and all faces are turned into paleness?
7 Nga luliba lwa nnaku olunaku olwo! Tewali lulirufaanana. Kiriba kiseera kya kabi eri Yakobo, naye aliwona n’akiyitamu.
Alas! for that day [is] great, so that none [is] like it: it [is] even the time of Jacob's trouble, but he shall be saved out of it.
8 “‘Olulituuka ku lunaku olwo, ndimenya ekikoligo okuva mu nsingo zaabwe era ne mbasaleko amasamba, ab’amawanga nga tebakyaddayo kubafuula baddu,’ bw’ayogera Mukama ow’Eggye.
For it shall come to pass in that day, saith the LORD of hosts, [that] I will break his yoke from off thy neck, and will burst thy bonds, and strangers shall no more bring him into subjection:
9 Wabula, bajja kuweerezanga Mukama Katonda waabwe ne Dawudi kabaka waabwe gwe ndibayimusiza.
But they shall serve the LORD their God, and David their king, whom I will raise up to them.
10 “‘Noolwekyo totya, ggwe Yakobo omuweereza wange, toggwaamu maanyi ggwe Isirayiri,’ bw’ayogera Mukama. ‘Ddala ddala ndibalokola okubaggya mu kifo eky’ewala, nziggye ezzadde lyammwe okuva mu nsi ey’obuwaŋŋanguse. Yakobo aliddamu okuba n’emirembe n’obutebenkevu, era tewali n’omu alimutiisatiisa.
Therefore fear thou not, O my servant Jacob, saith the LORD; neither be dismayed, O Israel: for lo, I will save thee from afar, and thy seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and shall be in rest, and quiet, and none shall make [him] afraid.
11 Ndi wamu nammwe era ndibalokola, wadde nga ndizikiririza ddala amawanga gye mbagobedde, siribazikiririza ddala mmwe,’ bw’ayogera Mukama. Ndibakangavvula n’obwenkanya, siribaleka nga temubonerezebbwa n’akatono.
For I [am] with thee, saith the LORD, to save thee: though I make a full end of all nations whither I have scattered thee, yet will I not make a full end of thee: but I will correct thee in measure, and will not leave thee altogether unpunished.
12 “Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti, “‘Ekiwundu kyo tekiwonyezeka, Ebisago byo si byakuwona.
For thus saith the LORD, Thy bruise [is] incurable, [and] thy wound [is] grievous.
13 Tewali n’omu wa kukuwolereza, tewali ddagala lya kiwundu kyo, toowonyezebwe.
[There is] none to plead thy cause, that thou mayest be bound up: thou hast no healing medicines.
14 Abakuyamba bonna bakwerabidde tebakufaako. Nkukubye ng’omulabe bwe yandikoze ne nkubonereza ng’owettima bwe yandikoze, kubanga omusango gw’ozzizza munene nnyo n’ebibi byo bingi ddala.
All thy lovers have forgotten thee; they seek thee not; for I have wounded thee with the wound of an enemy, with the chastisements of a cruel one, for the multitude of thy iniquity; [because] thy sins were increased.
15 Lwaki okaaba olw’ekiwundu kyo, obulumi bwo obutaliiko ddagala? Olw’okwonoona kwo okunene n’ebibi byo ebingi ennyo nkuleeseeko ebintu bino.
Why criest thou for thy affliction? thy sorrow [is] incurable for the multitude of thy iniquity: [because] thy sins were increased, I have done these things to thee.
16 “‘Naye bonna abakumira nabo baliriibwa, abalabe bo bonna baligenda mu buwaŋŋanguse. Abo abaakunyaga balinyagibwa, abo abaakwelula balyelulwa.
Therefore all they that devour thee shall be devoured; and all thy adversaries, every one of them shall go into captivity; and they that plunder thee shall be a spoil, and all that prey upon thee will I give for a prey.
17 Naye ndikuzzaawo owone, ndiwonya ebiwundu byo,’ bw’ayogera Mukama, ‘kubanga oyitibwa eyasuulibwa, Sayuuni atalina n’omu amufaako.’
For I will restore health to thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith the LORD; because they called thee an Outcast, [saying], This [is] Zion, whom no man seeketh after.
18 “Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti, “‘Ndizzaawo eby’obugagga by’eweema za Yakobo era mbeere n’ekisa ku kifo kyammwe kye mwabeerangamu. Ekibuga kirizimbibwa awaali amatongo gaakyo, n’olubiri luzzibwe mu kifo kyalwo ekituufu.
Thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will bring again the captivity of Jacob's tents, and have mercy on his dwelling places; and the city shall be built upon her own heap, and the palace shall remain after its manner.
19 Mu bo mulivaamu ennyimba ez’okwebaza era n’eddoboozi ery’okujaguza, ndibaaza, era tebaliba batono, ndibawa ekitiibwa, tebalinyoomebwa.
And out of them shall proceed thanksgiving and the voice of them that make merry: and I will multiply them, and they shall not be few; I will also glorify them, and they shall not be small.
20 Abaana baabwe baliba nga bwe baali mu nnaku ez’edda, era n’ebitundu byabwe mwe baabeeranga bizimbibwe nga ndaba. Ndibonereza bonna ababanyigiriza.
Their children also shall be as in former time, and their congregation shall be established before me, and I will punish all that oppress them.
21 Omukulembeze waabwe aliba omu ku bo; omukulembeze waabwe aliyimuka okuva mu bo. Ndimuleeta wendi era musembeze kumpi nange, kubanga ani oyo alyewaayo okunyiikira okubeera okumpi nange?’ bw’ayogera Mukama.
And their nobles shall be from themselves, and their governor shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach time: for who [is] this that engaged his heart to approach to me? saith the LORD.
22 ‘Noolwekyo munaabeeranga bantu bange, nange n’abeeranga Katonda wammwe.’”
And ye shall be my people, and I will be your God.
23 Laba, omuyaga gwa Mukama gulikuntira mu kiruyi, empewo ey’amaanyi eyeetooloolera ku mitwe gy’abakozi b’ebibi.
Behold, the whirlwind of the LORD goeth forth with fury, a continuing whirlwind: it shall fall with pain upon the head of the wicked.
24 Obusungu bwa Mukama obubuubuuka tebujja kukoma okutuusa ng’atuukirizza ekigendererwa ky’omutima gwe. Mu nnaku ezirijja, kino mulikitegeera.
The fierce anger of the LORD shall not return, until he hath done [it], and until he hath performed the intents of his heart: in the latter days ye shall consider it.
