1 “Koowoola kaakano, waliwo anaakuyitaba? Era ani ku batukuvu gw’onoolaajaanira?
“Memeza nxa uthanda, kodwa ngubani ozakuphendula na? Uzaphendukela kuwuphi wabangcwele na?
2 Obukyayi butta atalina magezi, n’obuggya butta omusirusiru.
Ukucaphuka kuyasibulala isiwula lomhawu uyamqeda oyisithutha.
3 Ndabye abasirusiru nga banywevu, naye mangu ddala ne nkolimira ekifo kye batuulamu.
Mina ngokwami sengasibona isiwula siphumelela, kodwa masinyane nje indlu yaso yayisiqalekisiwe.
4 Abaana baabwe tebalina bukuumi, babetenterwa mu luggya nga tewali abawolereza.
Abantwabaso kabavikelekanga lakancinyane, baphoselwa entolongweni bengelamvikeli.
5 Omuyala alya amakungula gaabwe era atwala n’ag’omu maggwa era awankirawankira eby’obugagga byabwe.
Abalambileyo bayazidlela isivuno sakhe, besithatha kanye lasemeveni, labomileyo bahahabela inotho yakhe.
6 Kubanga okulaba ennaku tekuva mu nsi, wadde obuzibu okuva mu ttaka,
Ngoba ubunzima kabugobhozi emhlabathini, loba uhlupho luhlume phansi.
7 wabula abantu bazaalibwa kulaba nnaku, ng’ensasi bwe zibuuka waggulu.
Kodwa umuntu uzalelwa ukuhlupheka njengoba ngeqiniso inhlansi zomlilo ziqhatshela phezulu.
8 Naye nze, nzija kunoonya Katonda era mmulekere ensonga zange.
Kodwa aluba ubuyimi, bengizamncenga uNkulunkulu; bengizakwethula udubo lwami kuye.
9 Akola ebikulu, ebitanoonyezeka, ebyewuunyisa ebitabalika.
Uyazenza izimanga ezingelakulinganiswa, imimangaliso engelakubalwa.
10 Atonnyesa enkuba ku nsi, n’aweereza amazzi mu byalo.
Uyanisa izulu emhlabeni; uthumela amanzi elizweni.
11 Ayimusa abo abanyigirizibwa n’abo abakaaba ne basitulibwa mu mirembe.
Abaphansi uyabakhweza phezulu, lalabo abakhalayo ubaphakamisela ekuphepheni.
12 Aziyiza enkwe z’ababi, emikono gyabwe gireme okutuukiriza bye bateesa.
Uyawafubisa amacebo amaqili, ukuze izandla zawo zingaphumeleli.
13 Agwikiririza abagezigezi mu bukujjukujju bwabwe, n’enkwe zaabwe n’aziziyiriza ddala.
Uyababamba abahlakaniphileyo ebuqilini babo, kuthi amaqhinga eziphoxo achitheke.
14 Ekizikiza kibabuutikira emisana, ne bawammanta mu ttuntu ng’ekiro.
Ubumnyama buyabehlela emini; phakathi kwemini bayaphumputha kungathi kusebusuku.
15 Naye aggya abali mu bwetaavu mu mukono gw’abo ab’amaanyi, n’abawonya ekitala kyabwe.
Uyabasindisa abaswelayo baphephe inkemba emlonyeni wabo; uyabasindisa ekubanjweni ngabalamandla.
16 Abaavu ne balyoka baba n’essuubi, n’akamwa k’abatali benkanya ne kazibibwa.
Ngakho abayanga balalo ithemba, ukwahlulela kubi kuvala owakho umlomo.
17 “Alina omukisa omuntu Katonda gw’abuulirira; noolwekyo tonyooma kukangavvula kw’oyo Ayinzabyonna.
Ubusisiwe umuntu oqondiswa nguNkulunkulu; ngakho ungaseyisi isijeziso sikaSomandla.
18 Kubanga ye y’afumita ate era y’anyiga, y’alumya era y’awonya.
Ngoba uyagwaza, kodwa aphinde abophe amanxeba; uyalimaza kodwa izandla zakhe njalo ziyapholisa.
19 Alikuwonya mu buzibu bwa ngeri mukaaga. Weewaawo ne mu ngeri musanvu tootuukibwengako kulumizibwa.
Uzakuhlenga ezinhluphekweni eziyisithupha; kweziyisikhombisa kawuyikuwelwa yingozi.
20 Mu njala alikuwonya okufa, era anaakuwonyanga mu lutalo olw’ekitala.
Ngesikhathi sendlala uzakuhlenga ekufeni, lasempini akuhlenge ekugaleleni kwenkemba.
21 Onookuumibwanga eri olulimi olukambwe, era tootyenga okuzikirira bwe kunaabanga kujja gy’oli.
Uzavikelwa ekuhletshweni, ungaze wesaba nxa kufika incithakalo.
22 Oliseka ng’okuzikirira n’enjala bizze, era tootyenga nsolo nkambwe ez’oku nsi.
Uzakuhleka ukuchithakala kanye lendlala, njalo ungaze wazesaba izilo zomhlaba.
23 Onoobanga n’enkolagana n’amayinja ag’omu nnimiro, era onoobanga n’emirembe awali ensolo enkambwe.
Ngoba uzakuba lesivumelwano lamatshe eganga, lezinyamazana zeganga zizahlalisana kuhle lawe.
24 Olimanya nti, ensiisira yo eri mirembe; era eby’obugagga byo olibibala n’olaba nga tewali kibuzeeko.
Uzakwazi ukuthi ithente lakho livikelekile; uzahlolisisa impahla yakho uthole kungelalutho olungekho.
25 Olimanya ng’ezzadde lyo liriba ddene, ne bazzukulu bo baliba bangi ng’omuddo ogw’oku nsi.
Uzakwazi ukuthi abantwabakho bazakuba banengi, lesizukulwane sakho sibe ngangotshani bomhlaba.
26 Olituusibwa ku ntaana yo nga wakaddiyira ddala, ng’eŋŋaano bwe tuukira mu kiseera kyayo.
Uzakuza engcwabeni usukhulile okugcweleyo njengezikhwebu zamabele eziqoqwa seziphelele.
27 “Ekyo twakyekenneenya, kituufu. Kimanye nga kikwata ku ggwe.”
Sesikuhlolile lokhu, kuliqiniso. Ngakho kuzwisise, ukulandele wena ngokwakho.”
