Yeremiya 33
1 Yeremiya bwe yali ng’akyali mu kkomera mu luggya lw’omukuumi, ekigambo kya Mukama ne kimujjira omulundi ogwokubiri nti,
And there is a word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah a second time — and he [is] yet detained in the court of the prison — saying:
2 “Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama, oyo eyakola ensi, Mukama eyagikola era n’agiteekawo, Mukama lye linnya lye:
Thus said Jehovah its maker, Jehovah its former, at establishing it, Jehovah [is] His name:
3 ‘Mumpite n’abayitaba ne mbalaga ebikulu ebitanoonyezeka bye mutamanyi.’
Call unto Me, and I do answer thee, yea, I declare to thee great and fenced things — thou hast not known them.
4 Kubanga bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama, Katonda wa Isirayiri ku mayumba agali mu kibuga kino era ne ku mbiri z’obwakabaka bwa Yuda ebyamenyebwamenyebwa okukozesebwa ng’entuumo eziziyiza obulumbaganyi n’ekitala
For thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, concerning the houses of this city, and concerning the houses of the kings of Judah, that are broken down for the mounts, and for the tool;
5 mu lutalo n’Abakaludaaya. ‘Birijjula emirambo gy’abasajja be nditta olw’obusungu bwange n’ekiruyi. Ndikweka amaaso gange okuva ku kibuga kino olw’obutali butuukirivu bwabwe bwonna.
they are coming in to fight with the Chaldeans, and to fill them with the carcases of men, whom I have smitten in Mine anger, and in My fury, and [for] whom I have hidden My face from this city, because of all their evil:
6 “‘Naye ndikiwa obulamu n’okuwonyezebwa; ndiwonya abantu bange, mbaleetere okweyagalira mu mirembe emigazi era eminywevu.
Lo, I am increasing to it health and cure, And have healed them, and revealed to them The abundance of peace and truth.
7 Ndikomyawo Yuda ne Isirayiri okubaggya mu buwambe era mbazimbe nga bwe baasooka okubeera.
And I have turned back the captivity of Judah, And the captivity of Israel, And I have built them as at the first,
8 Ndibalongoosa okubaggyako ebibi byonna bye bannyonoona era mbasonyiwe n’ekibi eky’okunjeemera.
And cleansed them from all their iniquity, That they have sinned against Me, And I have pardoned all their iniquities, That they have sinned against Me, And that they transgressed against Me.
9 Olwo ekibuga kino kirindetera okwongera okumanyika, n’essanyu, n’ettendo era n’ekitiibwa eri amawanga gonna ku nsi agaliwulira ebintu byonna ebirungi bye mbakolera; era balyewuunya bakankane olw’okukulaakulana n’emirembe gye nkiwa.’
And it hath been to Me for a name of joy, For praise, and for beauty, to all nations of the earth, Who hear of all the good that I am doing them, And they have feared, And they have trembled for all the good, And for all the peace, that I am doing to it.
10 “Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti, ‘Mwogera ku kifo kino nti, “Matongo agaalekebwa awo, omutali bantu wadde ensolo.” Ate nga mu bibuga bya Yuda n’enguudo za Yerusaalemi ezalekebwawo omutali bantu wadde ensolo, muliddamu okuwulirwa nate
Thus said Jehovah: Again heard in this place of which ye are saying, Waste it [is], without man and without beast, In cities of Judah, and in streets of Jerusalem, That are desolated, without man, And without inhabitant, and without beast,
11 amaloboozi ag’essanyu n’okujaguza, n’amaloboozi g’omugole ne bba, n’amaloboozi gaabo abaleeta ekiweebwayo eky’okwebaza eri ennyumba ya Mukama, nga bagamba nti, “‘“Mumwebaze Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye, kubanga Mukama mulungi; okwagala kwe kubeerera emirembe gyonna.” Kubanga ndizzaawo omukisa gw’eggwanga lino nga bwe gwali mu kusooka,’ bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
Is a voice of joy and a voice of gladness, Voice of bridegroom, and voice of bride, The voice of those saying, Thank Jehovah of Hosts, for Jehovah [is] good, For His kindness [is] to the age, Who are bringing in thanksgiving to the house of Jehovah, For I turn back the captivity of the land, As at the first, said Jehovah.
12 “Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye nti, ‘Mu kifo kino ekirekeddwa awo omutali bantu wadde ensolo, mu bibuga byakyo byonna nate muliddamu amalundiro ag’abasumba mwe banaawummulizanga ebisibo byabwe.
Thus said Jehovah of Hosts: Again there is in this place — that is waste, Without man and beast, And in all its cities — a habitation of shepherds, Causing the flock to lie down.
13 Mu bibuga eby’ensi ey’obusozi, eby’eri wansi w’ensozi ez’omu bugwanjuba era ne Negebu, mu kitundu kya Benyamini, mu byalo ebyetoolodde Yerusaalemi n’ebibuga ebyetoolodde Yuda mwonna ebisibo biriddamu okuyita wansi w’omukono gw’oyo abibala,’ bw’ayogera Mukama.
In the cities of the hill-country, In the cities of the low country, And in the cities of the south, And in the land of Benjamin, And in the suburbs of Jerusalem, And in the cities of Judah, Again doth the flock pass by under the hands of the numberer, said Jehovah.
14 “‘Ennaku zijja,’ bw’ayogera Mukama, ‘lwe ndituukiriza ekisuubizo eky’ekisa kye nakolera ennyumba ya Isirayiri n’ennyumba ya Yuda.
Lo, days are coming, an affirmation of Jehovah, And I have established the good word That I spake unto the house of Israel, And concerning the house of Judah.
15 “‘Mu nnaku ezo era mu kiseera ekyo ndireeta Ettabi ettukuvu mu lunyiriri lwa Dawudi era alikola eby’amazima era ebituufu mu nsi.
In those days, and at that time, I cause to shoot up to David a shoot of righteousness, And he hath done judgment and righteousness in the earth.
16 Mu nnaku ezo Yuda alirokolebwa ne Yerusaalemi alibeera mirembe. Lino lye linnya ly’aliyitibwa nti, Mukama Obutuukirivu bwaffe.’”
In those days is Judah saved, And Jerusalem doth dwell confidently, And this [is] he whom Jehovah proclaimeth to her: 'Our Righteousness.'
17 Kubanga bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti, “Dawudi talirema kubeera na muntu kutuula ku ntebe ey’obwakabaka bw’ennyumba ya Isirayiri,
For thus said Jehovah: 'Not cut off to David is one sitting on the throne of the house of Israel,
18 wadde bakabona, n’Abaleevi, okulemwa okubeera n’omusajja ow’okuyimirira mu maaso gange ebbanga lyonna okuwaayo ssaddaaka ezokebwa, okwokya ekiweebwayo eky’empeke era n’okuwaayo ssaddaaka.”
And to the priests — the Levites, Not cut off from before Me is one, Causing a burnt-offering to ascend, And perfuming a present, and making sacrifice — all the days.'
19 Ekigambo kya Mukama kyajjira Yeremiya nti,
And there is a word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah, saying,
20 “Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti, ‘Bw’oba osobola okumenya endagaano yange n’emisana era n’endagaano yange n’ekiro, ne kiba nti emisana n’ekiro tebijja mu biseera byabyo ebyateekebwawo,
'Thus said Jehovah: If ye do break My covenant of the day, And My covenant of the night, So that they are not daily and nightly in their season,
21 olwo endagaano yange ne Dawudi omuddu wange, n’endagaano yange n’Abaleevi, ne bakabona, n’abaweereza bange eyinza okumenyebwa, Dawudi aleme kuddayo kuba na muntu wa mu nju ye okufuga ku ntebe ye ey’obwakabaka.
Also My covenant is broken with David My servant, So that he hath not a son reigning on his throne, And with the Levites the priests, My ministers.
22 Ndifuula ab’enju ya Dawudi omuddu wange n’Abaleevi abaweereza mu maaso gange okwala ng’emmunyeenye ez’oku ggulu ezitabalika era abatabalika ng’omusenyu gw’okulubalama lw’ennyanja ogutapimika.’”
As the host of the heavens is not numbered, Nor the sand of the sea measured, So I multiply the seed of David My servant, And the Levites My ministers.'
23 Ekigambo kya Mukama ne kijjira Yeremiya nti,
And there is a word of Jehovah unto Jeremiah, saying:
24 Tonategeera nti abantu bano bagamba nti, “Mukama agaanye obwakabaka obubiri bwe yalonda? Kale banyooma abantu bange era tebakyababala ng’eggwanga.
'Hast thou not considered what this people have spoken, saying: The two families on which Jehovah fixed, He doth reject them, And my people they despise — So that they are no more a people before them!
25 Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti, ‘Bwe mba nga sassaawo ndagaano yange n’emisana n’ekiro n’amateeka ag’enkalakkalira ag’eggulu n’ensi,
Thus said Jehovah: If My covenant [is] not daily and nightly, The statutes of heaven and earth I have not appointed —
26 olwo nzija kwegaana ezzadde lya Yakobo ne Dawudi omuddu wange era sirironda n’omu ku batabani be okufuga ezzadde lya Ibulayimu, ne Isaaka ne Yakobo. Kubanga ndizzaawo nate emikisa gyabwe, era ne mbakwatirwa ekisa.’”
Also the seed of Jacob, and David My servant, I reject, Against taking from his seed rulers For the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, For I turn back [to] their captivity, and have pitied them.'
