< Yobu 20 >
1 Awo Zofali Omunaamasi n’amuddamu nti,
Wasephendula uZofari umNahama wathi:
2 “Ebirowoozo byange ebiteganyiziddwa binkubiriza okukuddamu kubanga nteganyizibbwa nnyo.
Ngakho imicabango yami ingenza ngiphendule, langenxa yokuphangisa kwami phakathi kwami.
3 Mpulidde nga nswadde olw’okunenya, okutegeera kwange kunkubiriza okuddamu.
Ngizwile isijeziso sehlazo lami, lomoya wokuqedisisa kwami ungenza ngiphendule.
4 “Ddala omanyi nga bwe byali okuva edda, okuva omuntu lwe yateekebwa ku nsi,
Uyakwazi lokhu yini, kusukela endulo, selokhu kwabekwa umuntu emhlabeni,
5 nti Enseko z’omwonoonyi ziba z’akaseera katono, era n’essanyu ly’abatamanyi Katonda terirwawo.
ukuthi injabulo yababi imfitshane, lentokozo yomzenzisi ngeyesikhatshana nje?
6 Newaakubadde ng’amalala ge gatuuka ku ggulu n’omutwe gwe ne gutuuka ku bire,
Loba ubukhosi bakhe busenyukela emazulwini, lekhanda lakhe lifinyelela emayezini,
7 alizikirira emirembe n’emirembe nga empitambi ye: abo abamulaba babuuze nti, ‘Ali ludda wa?’
uzabhubha phakade njengobulongwe bakhe; labo abambonileyo bathi: Ungaphi?
8 Abulawo ng’ekirooto, n’ataddayo kulabika; abuzeewo ng’okwolesebwa kw’ekiro.
Uzaphapha njengephupho, bangabe besamthola; yebo, uzaxotshwa njengombono webusuku.
9 Eriiso eryamulaba teririddayo kumulaba, taliddayo kulaba kifo kye nate.
Ilihlo elike lambona aliyikuphinda, lendawo yakhe kayisayikumbona.
10 Abaana be basaana bakolagane n’abaavu, emikono gye gyennyini gye gisaana okuwaayo obugagga bwe.
Abantwana bakhe bazadinga ukuthokozisa abayanga, lezandla zakhe zibuyisele inotho yakhe.
11 Amaanyi ag’ekivubuka agajjudde amagumba ge, ge ganaagalamiranga naye mu nfuufu.
Amathambo akhe ayegcwele ubutsha bakhe, kodwa azalala kanye laye enhlabathini.
12 “Okukola ebibi kuwoomerera mu kamwa ke era akukweka wansi w’olulimi lwe,
Uba ububi bumnandi emlonyeni wakhe, ebufihla ngaphansi kolimi lwakhe,
13 tayagala kukuleka, wadde okukuta era akukuumira mu kamwa ke.
ebugodla, engabuyekeli, kodwa ebugcina phakathi komlomo wakhe,
14 Naye emmere ye erimwonoonekera mu byenda, era erifuuka butwa bwa nsweera munda ye.
ukudla kwakhe kuzaphenduka esiswini sakhe, kuzakuba yibuhlungu bezinyoka phakathi kwakhe.
15 Aliwandula eby’obugagga bye yamira; Katonda alireetera olubuto lwe okubisesema.
Uginye inotho, kodwa uzayihlanza; uNkulunkulu uzayikhupha esiswini sakhe.
16 Alinywa obutwa bw’ensweera; amannyo g’essalambwa galimutta.
Uzamunya ubuhlungu bezinyoka, lolimi lwebululu luzambulala.
17 Alisubwa obugga, n’emigga egikulukuta n’omubisi gw’enjuki n’amata.
Kayikubona izifula, imifula, izifudlana zoluju lolaza.
18 Bye yateganira alina okubiwaayo nga tabiridde; talinyumirwa magoba ga kusuubula kwe,
Uzabuyisela lokho akusebenzelayo, angakuginyi; njengokwenotho izakuba njalo inhlawulo, njalo kayikuthokoza.
19 kubanga yanyigiriza abaavu n’abaleka nga bakaaba, yawamba amayumba g’ataazimba.
Ngoba ubacindezele wabadela abayanga, waphanga indlu abengayakhanga.
20 “Ddala ddala talifuna kikkusa mululu gwe, wadde okuwonya n’ebyo bye yeeterekera.
Ngoba kakwazi ukuthula esiswini sakhe, kayikusindisa lutho kusifiso sakhe.
21 Tewali kimulekeddwawo ky’anaalya; obugagga bwe tebujja kusigalawo.
Kakuyikusala lutho ekudleni kwakhe; ngenxa yalokhu okuhle kwakhe kakuyikuma.
22 Wakati mu kufuna ebingi okulaba ennaku kumujjira; alibonaabonera ddala nnyo.
Ekugcwaleni kokwanela kwakhe uzakuba lencindezelo; sonke isandla sohluphekayo sizamfikela.
23 Ng’amaze okujjuza olubuto lwe, Katonda alyoke amusumulurire obusungu bwe amukube ebikonde ebitagambika.
Kuzakuthi lapho egcwalisa isisu sakhe, uNkulunkulu athumele kuye ukuvutha kwentukuthelo yakhe, akunise phezu kwakhe ekudleni kwakhe.
24 Bw’alidduka ekyokulwanyisa eky’ekyuma, akasaale ak’ekikomo kalimufumita.
Uzabalekela isikhali sensimbi, idandili lethusi lizamhlaba.
25 Akasaale kaliviirayo mu mugongo gwe, omumwa gwako ogumasamasa gusikibwe mu kibumba. Entiisa erimujjira.
Uyalihwatsha, liphume emhlana, lokubenyezelayo kuzaphuma enyongweni yakhe; izesabiso ziphezu kwakhe.
26 Ekizikiza ekikutte kye kirindiridde obugagga bwe. Omuliro ogutazikira gwe gulimumalawo, gwokye ebisigadde mu weema ye.
Ubumnyama bonke bugcinelwe izinto zakhe ezibekelelweyo; umlilo ongavuthelwayo uzamqeda; kuzakuba kubi kunsali ethenteni lakhe.
27 Eggulu liryolesa obutali butuukirivu bwe; ensi erimusitukirako n’emujeemera.
Amazulu azakwembula ububi bakhe, lomhlaba umvukele.
28 Ebintu by’ennyumba biritwalibwa, biribulira ku lunaku lw’obusungu bwa Katonda.
Ukwanda kwendlu yakhe kuzanyamalala, kukhukhulwe osukwini lwentukuthelo yakhe.
29 Eyo y’engeri Katonda gy’asasulamu abakozi b’ebibi, nga gwe mugabo Katonda gwe yabategekera.”
Lesi yisabelo somuntu omubi esivela kuNkulunkulu, lelifa alimiselwa nguNkulunkulu.
