1 Amagezi tegakoowoolera waggulu, n’okutegeera ne kuyimusa eddoboozi lyakwo?
Tie: Nyansa refrɛ. Ntease ma ne nne so.
2 Ku ntikko y’ebifo ebigulumivu okumpi n’ekkubo, mu masaŋŋanzira, amagezi we gayimirira butengerera,
Ɔkwan no so, sorɔnsorɔmmea hɔ, nkwantanan no so, ɛhɔ na egyina,
3 ku mabbali g’enzigi eziyingira mu kibuga, ku miryango, gakoowoolera waggulu nga gagamba nti,
apon a ɛkɔ kuropɔn no mu no ho, ɛteɛ mu wɔ abobow ano hɔ se,
4 Mmwe abantu, mmwe b’empita; nnyimusa eddoboozi lyange eri buli omu ali ku nsi.
“Ao, mo nnipa na meteɛ mu refrɛ; meteɛ mu frɛ adesamma nyinaa.
5 Mmwe abatategeera mufune okutegeera; nammwe abasirusiru mufune amagezi.
Mo a moyɛ ntetekwaa, momma mo ani ntew; mo a moyɛ nkwaseafo, munnya ntease.
6 Muwulirize kubanga nnina ebintu ebikulu eby’okubagamba, era mu kamwa kange muvaamu ebituufu.
Muntie, na mewɔ nsɛm pa bi ka kyerɛ mo; mibue mʼano ka nea eye.
7 Akamwa kange koogera bituufu byereere; kubanga emimwa gyange gikyawa ebitali bya butuukirivu.
Mʼano ka nea ɛyɛ nokware, efisɛ mʼanofafa kyi amumɔyɛsɛm.
8 Ebigambo by’emimwa gyange byonna bya bwenkanya tewali na kimu kikyamu oba kya bukuusa.
Mʼanom nsɛm nyinaa yɛ pɛ; biara nni mu a ɛyɛ nkontompo anaa nnaadaasɛm.
9 Ebigambo byange byonna bitegeerekeka eri oyo ategeera, era tebirina kabi eri oyo alina amagezi.
Ne nyinaa mu da hɔ ma nea ɔwɔ nhumu; ɛho nni asɛm ma wɔn a wɔwɔ nimdeɛ.
10 Mu kifo kya ffeeza, londawo okuyigiriza kwange, era n’okumanya mu kifo kya zaabu ennongoose obulungi,
Mompo dwetɛ na momfa mʼakwankyerɛ, momfa nimdeɛ na mompo sikakɔkɔɔ ankasa.
11 kubanga amagezi gasinga amayinja ag’omuwendo omungi, era n’ebyo byonna bye weegomba tebiyinza kugeraageranyizibwa nago.
Efisɛ nimdeɛ som bo sen bota, na worentumi mfa nea wopɛ biara ntoto no ho.
12 Nze Magezi, mbeera wamu n’okuteesa okulungi, era mu nze mulimu okumanya n’okwawula ekirungi n’ekibi.
“Me, nyansa, mene anitew na ɛte; nimdeɛ ne nhumu wɔ me.
13 Okutya Mukama kwe kukyawa ekibi; nkyawa amalala n’okwemanya, n’obuteeyisa bulungi n’enjogera ey’obubambaavu.
Sɛ wosuro Awurade ɛne sɛ wokyi bɔne; mikyi ahantan ne ahomaso, ɔbra bɔne ne nnaadaasɛm.
14 Okuteesa okulungi n’okusalawo okw’amagezi bye byange; ntegeera era ndi wa buyinza.
Afotu ne atemmu pa wɔ me; mewɔ ntease ne tumi.
15 Ku bwange, Magezi, bakabaka bafuga, abafuzi ne bakola amateeka ag’obwenkanya.
Me so na ahemfo nam di ade na sodifo nam me so hyehyɛ mmara a ɛyɛ pɛ;
16 Abalangira bafuga ku bwange, n’abakungu bonna abafuga ku nsi.
Mmapɔmma de me bu ɔman ne atitiriw nyinaa a wodi asase so hene.
17 Njagala abo abanjagala, n’abo abanyiikira okunnoonya bandaba.
Medɔ wɔn a wɔdɔ me, na wɔn a wɔhwehwɛ me no hu me.
18 Obugagga n’ekitiibwa biri mu nze, obugagga obutakoma n’okukulaakulana.
Ahonyade ne anuonyam wɔ me nkyɛn, ahode a ɛkyɛ ne yiyedi nso saa ara.
19 Ekibala kyange kisinga zaabu ennongoose, n’ebinvaamu bisinga ffeeza ey’omuwendo omungi.
Mʼaba ye sen sikakɔkɔɔ ankasa; nea efi me mu boro dwetɛ a wɔasɔn so so.
20 Ntambulira mu kkubo ery’obutuukirivu, mu kkubo ery’obwenkanya,
Trenee akwan so na menam, atɛntrenee akwan so,
21 n’abo abanjagala mbagaggawaza era nzijuza amawanika gaabwe.
mede ahode ma wɔn a wɔdɔ me na mehyɛ wɔn adekoradan amaama.
22 Mukama nze gwe yasooka okwoleka nga tannabaako kirala ky’akola.
“Awurade bɔɔ me sɛ nʼabɔde mu abakan dii ne tete nneyɛe anim;
23 Nateekebwawo dda nnyo, ku lubereberye ng’ensi tennabaawo.
oyii me sii hɔ fi tete, ansa na wiase refi ase.
24 Nateekebwawo ng’obuziba bw’ennyanja tebunnateekebwawo, nga n’emigga egireeta amazzi teginnabaawo,
Wɔwoo me ansa na wɔrebɔ po kakraka no, ansa na wɔreyɛ nsuti a nsu ahyɛ no ma no,
25 ng’ensozi tezinnateekebwa mu bifo byazo, nga n’obusozi tebunnabaawo;
ansa na wɔde mmepɔw resisi hɔ; wɔwoo me ansa na nkoko reba,
26 nga tannakola nsi newaakubadde amalundiro gaakwo, wadde enfuufu eyasooka ey’oku nsi.
ansa na ɔbɔɔ asase ne ne mfuw anaa dɔte biara a ɛwɔ asase so.
27 Naliwo ng’ateekawo eggulu mu kifo kyalyo, ne bwe yakola enkulungo kungulu ku buziba,
Mewɔ hɔ ansa na wɔbɔɔ ɔsoro, bere a otwaa ɔhye too ebun no ani no,
28 ate ne bwe yawanika ebire n’abinywereza waggulu mu bbanga, n’anywereza ddala ensulo z’amazzi,
bere a ɔbɔɔ omununkum wɔ soro na ɔde ebun mu nsuti tintim hɔ dennen no;
29 bwe yawa ennyanja ensalo zaazo we zikoma, amazzi galeme kusukka we yagalagira, ne bwe yali ng’alamba emisingi gy’ensi.
bere a otwaa ɔhye maa po sɛnea nsu no rentra ne hye, ne bere a otwaa asase fapem no,
30 Nnali naye ng’omukozi omukugu, nga nzijudde essanyu lye erya buli lunaku, nga nsanyukira mu maaso ge bulijjo,
na meyɛ odwumfo a mete ne nkyɛn. Anigye hyɛɛ me ma daa na midii ahurusi wɔ nʼanim bere biara,
31 nga nsanyukira mu nsi ye yonna, era nga ne nesiima olw’abaana b’abantu.
na mʼani gye wɔ ne wiase nyinaa mu na mʼani ka wɔ adesamma mu.
32 Kale nno, batabani bange mumpulirize; balina omukisa abo abakwata amakubo gange!
“Enti me mma, muntie me; nhyira ne wɔn a wɔnantew mʼakwan so.
33 Muwulirizenga okuyigirizibwa, mubenga n’amagezi, so temugalekanga.
Muntie mʼakwankyerɛ na munhu nyansa; mummmu mo ani ngu so.
34 Alina omukisa omuntu ampuliriza, alindirira nga bw’akuuma ku nzigi zange buli lunaku.
Nhyira ne onipa a otie me, ɔwɛn mʼabobow ano daa, na ɔtwɛn wɔ hɔ.
35 Kubanga buli andaba afuna obulamu, era afuna okuganja eri Mukama.
Na obiara a ohu me no nya nkwa, na onya anisɔ fi Awurade nkyɛn.
36 Oyo atannoonya yeerumya yekka, era n’abo bonna abankyawa banoonya kufa.
Na nea wanhwehwɛ me no haw ne ho na wɔn a wɔtan me no dɔ owu.”
