Zabbuli 78
1 Oluyimba lwa Asafu. Muwulire okuyigiriza kwange mmwe abantu bange, musseeyo omwoyo ku bye njogera.
Lalelani, bantu bami, umthetho wami, libeke indlebe yenu emazwini omlomo wami.
2 Ndyogerera mu ngero, njogere ebintu eby’ekyama ebyaliwo edda,
Ngizavula umlomo wami ngomfanekiso, ngikhuphe izimfihlakalo zendulo,
3 ebintu bye twawulira ne tumanya; ebintu bajjajjaffe bye baatutegeeza.
esizizwileyo lesizaziyo, obaba abasitshela zona.
4 Tetuubikisenga baana baabwe, naye tunaabuuliranga buli mulembe ogunnaddangawo ebikolwa bya Mukama eby’ekitalo, n’amaanyi ge n’ebyamagero bye yakola.
Kasiyikuzifihlela abantwana babo, kusizukulwana esilandelayo, silandisa izindumiso zeNkosi, lamandla ayo, lezimangaliso ezenzileyo.
5 Yawa Yakobo ebiragiro, n’ateeka amateeka mu Isirayiri; n’alagira bajjajjaffe babiyigirizenga abaana baabwe,
Ngoba wamisa ubufakazi koJakobe, wabeka umlayo koIsrayeli, awulaya obaba, ukuze bawazise abantwana babo,
6 ab’omu mulembe oguliddirira nabo babimanye, n’abaana abalizaalibwa, nabo babiyigirize abaana baabwe,
ukuze isizukulwana esilandelayo sazi, abantwana abazazalwa, basukume batshele abantwana babo,
7 balyoke beesigenga Katonda, era balemenga okwerabira ebyo byonna Katonda bye yakola; naye bagonderenga ebiragiro bye.
ukuze babeke ithemba labo kuNkulunkulu, bangayikhohlwa imisebenzi kaNkulunkulu, kodwa bagcine imithetho yakhe;
8 Baleme okuba nga bajjajjaabwe, omulembe ogw’abakakanyavu era abajeemu abatali bawulize, ab’emyoyo egitali myesigwa eri Katonda.
njalo bangabi njengaboyise, isizukulwana esilenkani lesivukelayo, isizukulwana esingaqondisanga inhliziyo yaso, lesimoya waso ungathembekanga kuNkulunkulu.
9 Abaana ba Efulayimu abaalina obusaale obw’okulwanyisa, naye ne badduka mu lutalo,
Abantwana bakoEfrayimi, behlomile betshoka ngamadandili, babuyela emuva mhla wempi.
10 tebaatuukiriza ndagaano ya Katonda; ne bagaana okugondera amateeka ga Mukama.
Kabasilondolozanga isivumelwano sikaNkulunkulu, bala ukuhamba emlayweni wakhe.
11 Beerabira ebyo bye yakola, n’ebyamagero bye yabalaga.
Bakhohlwa izenzo zakhe lezimangaliso zakhe ayebatshengisa zona.
12 Yakola ebyamagero mu maaso ga bajjajjaabwe nga bali mu nsi y’e Misiri, mu kitundu kya Zowani.
Phambi kwaboyise wenza isimangaliso elizweni leGibhithe, egangeni leZowani.
13 Ennyanja yajaawulamu, amazzi ne geetuuma ebbali n’ebbali ng’ebisenge.
Waqhekeza ulwandle, wabachaphisa, wenza amanzi ema njengenqumbi.
14 Emisana yabakulemberanga n’ekire, n’ekiro n’abakulemberanga n’empagi ey’omuliro.
Wabakhokhela ngeyezi emini, lebusuku bonke ngokukhanya komlilo.
15 Yayasa enjazi mu ddungu, n’abawa amazzi amangi agaali ng’agava mu buziba bw’ennyanja.
Waqhekeza amadwala enkangala, wabanathisa kungathi kuvela ezinzikini ezinkulu.
16 Yaggya ensulo mu lwazi, n’akulukusa amazzi ng’emigga.
Waseveza izifula edwaleni, wenza amanzi ehla njengemifula.
17 Naye bo ne beeyongera bweyongezi okwonoona, ne bajeemera Oyo Ali Waggulu Ennyo nga bali mu ddungu.
Kodwa baphinda futhi ukona kuye, ngokumvukela oPhezukonke enkangala.
18 Ne bagezesa Katonda mu bugenderevu, nga bamusaba emmere gye baalulunkanira.
Bamlinga uNkulunkulu enhliziyweni yabo ngokucela ukudla kwenkanuko yabo.
19 Era ne boogera ku Katonda; nga bagamba nti, “Katonda asobola okutuliisiza mu ddungu?
Basebekhuluma bemelene loNkulunkulu bathi: UNkulunkulu angalungisa itafula enkangala yini?
20 Weewaawo yakuba olwazi, amazzi ne gakulukuta ng’emigga; naye anaatuwa emmere? Anaawa abantu be ennyama?”
Khangela, watshaya idwala, kwampompoza amanzi, lezifula zagabha; anganika lesinkwa yini? angalungisela abantu bakhe inyama na?
21 Awo Mukama bwe yawulira ebyo n’asunguwala nnyo; omuliro gwe ne gwaka ku Yakobo, n’obusungu bwe ne bubuubuukira ku Isirayiri.
Ngakho iNkosi yezwa yathukuthela; umlilo wasubaselwa uJakobe, njalo lolaka lwavukela uIsrayeli,
22 Kubanga tebakkiriza Katonda, era tebeesiga maanyi ge agalokola.
ngoba kabakholwanga kuNkulunkulu, kabathembanga esindisweni lwakhe.
23 Naye era n’alagira eggulu; n’aggulawo enzigi z’omu ggulu.
Lanxa walaya amayezi ngaphezulu, wavula iminyango yamazulu,
24 N’abaweereza maanu okuva mu ggulu balye. Yabawa emmere eyava mu ggulu.
wabanisela imana ukuthi badle, wabapha amabele amazulu.
25 Abantu ne balya emmere ya bamalayika; Mukama n’abawanga emmere nnyingi eyabamaliranga ddala.
Umuntu wadla isinkwa sabalamandla; wabathumela ukudla ukuze basuthe.
26 N’akunsa empewo ey’Ebuvanjuba okuva mu ggulu, era n’aweereza empewo okuva obukiika obwaddyo n’amaanyi ge.
Wenza umoya wempumalanga wavunguza emazulwini; langamandla akhe waqhuba umoya weningizimu.
27 Yatonnyesa ennyama okuva mu ggulu ennyingi ennyo ng’enfuufu; n’abaweereza n’obunyonyi enkumu ennyo ng’omusenyu gw’okulubalama lw’ennyanja.
Wasenisela phezu kwabo inyama njengothuli, lenyoni ezilempiko njengetshebetshebe lolwandle;
28 Ebyokulya ebyo n’abisuula wakati mu lusiisira lwabwe; okwetooloola eweema zaabwe.
wazenza zawela phakathi kwenkamba yabo, zagombolozela indawo zabo zokuhlala.
29 Awo ne balya ne bakkuta nnyo; kubanga yabawa kye baali bayaayaanira.
Ngakho badla basutha kakhulu, ngoba wabalethela isiloyiso sabo.
30 Naye bwe baali nga bakyalulunkana, nga n’emmere ekyali mu kamwa kaabwe,
Kabehlukananga lenkanuko yabo; ukudla kusesemlonyeni wabo,
31 obusungu bwa Mukama ne bubabuubuukirako, n’abattamu abasajja abasinga amaanyi; abavubuka ba Isirayiri ne bazikirizibwa.
ulaka lukaNkulunkulu lwaselubavukela, wabulala kwabakhulupheleyo babo, watshaya abakhethiweyo bakoIsrayeli.
32 Naye newaakubadde ebyo byonna byabatuukako, kyokka beeyongera okwonoona; newaakubadde nga yabakolera ebyamagero, naye tebakkiriza.
Kulokhu konke bajinga besona, njalo kabakholwanga ngenxa yezimangaliso zakhe.
33 Mukama kyeyava asala ku myaka gyabwe, n’abaleetako okuzikirizibwa okw’amangu era okw’entiisa.
Ngakho waziqeda izinsuku zabo ngeze, leminyaka yabo ovalweni.
34 Bwe yattanga abamu ku bo, ne balyoka bamunoonya, ne beenenya ne badda gy’ali.
Lapho ebabulala, bamdinga, baphenduka, bamdingisisa uNkulunkulu.
35 Ne bajjukira nti Katonda lwe Lwazi lwabwe; era nti Katonda Ali Waggulu Ennyo ye Mununuzi waabwe.
Bakhumbula ukuthi uNkulunkulu ulidwala labo, loNkulunkulu oPhezukonke ungumhlengi wabo.
36 Kyokka baamuwaananga n’emimwa gyabwe, nga bwe bamulimba n’ennimi zaabwe,
Kodwa bamyenga ngomlomo wabo, baqamba amanga kuye ngolimi lwabo.
37 so tebaali beesigwa mu mitima gyabwe, era nga tebatuukiriza ndagaano ye.
Ngoba inhliziyo yabo yayingaqondanga kuye, njalo bengathembekanga esivumelwaneni sakhe.
38 Naye ye n’abakwatirwanga ekisa n’abasonyiwanga, n’atabazikiriza; emirundi n’emirundi ng’akoma ku busungu bwe, n’atabamalirako kiruyi kye okubazikiririza ddala.
Kodwa yena elesihawu wathethelela ububi babo, kababhubhisanga; yebo, kanengi walunqanda ulaka lwakhe, kakuvusanga konke ukuthukuthela kwakhe.
39 Yajjukira nga baali mubiri bubiri; ng’empewo egenda n’etedda!
Ngoba wakhumbula ukuthi bayinyama, umoya odlulayo, ongabuyiyo.
40 Baamujeemeranga nnyo bwe baali mu ddungu; ne banakuwaza nnyo omutima gwe.
Kanengi kangakanani bemvukela ehlane, bemdabukisa enkangala.
41 Ne baddamu ne bakema Katonda, ne banyiiza Omutukuvu wa Isirayiri.
Yebo baphenduka bamlinga uNkulunkulu, bamdabukisa oNgcwele kaIsrayeli.
42 Tebajjukira buyinza bwe; wadde olunaku lwe yabanunulirako mu mikono gy’omulabe;
Kabasikhumbulanga isandla sakhe, usuku abahlenga ngalo esitheni.
43 bwe yalaga obubonero bwe mu Misiri, n’ebyamagero bye mu kitundu kya Zowani,
Ukuthi wamisa njani izibonakaliso zakhe eGibhithe, lezimangaliso zakhe emmangweni weZowani,
44 yafuula amazzi g’emigga gyabwe omusaayi, ne batanywa mazzi gaagyo.
lokuthi waphendula imifula yabo yaba ligazi, lezifula zabo, ukuze banganathi.
45 Yabaweereza agabinja g’ensowera ne zibaluma, n’abaweereza n’ebikere ne bibadaaza.
Wathumela phakathi kwabo umtshitshi wezibawu, ezabadlayo, lamaxoxo ababhubhisayo.
46 Ebirime n’ebibala byabwe yabiwa enzige ne bulusejjera.
Wasenika imihogoyi isivuno sabo, lomsebenzi wabo isikhonyane.
47 Yazikiriza emizabbibu gyabwe n’omuzira, era ne gukuba n’emisukomooli gyabwe.
Wabulala ivini labo ngesiqhotho, lemikhiwa yabo yesikhamore ngongqwaqwane.
48 Yatta ente zaabwe n’amayinja g’omuzira; n’ebisibo byabwe ne bittibwa eraddu.
Wasenikela izifuyo zabo esiqhothweni, lemihlambi yabo kuyo imibane.
49 Obusungu bwe obungi bwababuubuukirako, n’ekiruyi kye n’obukambwe ne bibamalamu ensa. N’alyoka abasindikira ekibinja kya bamalayika okubazikiriza.
Waphosela phezu kwabo ukuvutha kolaka lwakhe, ukuthukuthela, lokucunuka, lokuhlupheka, ngokuthuma izithunywa zobubi.
50 Yabalaga obusungu bwe, n’atabasonyiwa kufa, n’abasindikira kawumpuli.
Walungisela ulaka lwakhe indlela, kanqandanga umphefumulo wabo ekufeni, kodwa wanikela impilo yabo kumatshayabhuqe wesifo.
51 Yatta ababereberye bonna ab’omu Misiri, nga be bavubuka ab’ebibala ebibereberye eby’omu nnyumba ya Kaamu.
Wasetshaya wonke amazibulo eGibhithe, okokuqala kwamandla emathenteni kaHamu.
52 N’alyoka afulumya abantu be ng’endiga, n’abatambuza mu ddungu ng’ekisibo.
Wasebakhupha abantu bakhe njengezimvu, wabakhokhela enkangala njengomhlambi.
53 N’abaluŋŋamya mu mirembe nga tebatya, ennyanja n’esaanyaawo abalabe baabwe.
Wasebakhokhela bephephile ukuze bangesabi; kodwa ulwandle lwasibekela izitha zabo.
54 N’abatuusa ku nsalo y’ensi entukuvu; ku lusozi lwe yeewangulira, n’omukono gwe ogwa ddyo.
Wasebafikisa emkhawulweni wendawo yakhe engcwele, le intaba, isandla sakhe sokunene esayizuzayo.
55 Yagobamu amawanga nga balaba, n’abagabanyiza ebitundu by’ensi eyo; n’atuuza bulungi ebika bya Isirayiri mu maka gaabyo.
Wasebaxotsha abezizwe phambi kwabo; wababela ilifa ngomzila, wahlalisa izizwe zakoIsrayeli emathenteni azo.
56 Naye era ne bakema Katonda; ne bamujeemera oyo Ali Waggulu Ennyo, ne bagaana okugondera ebiragiro bye.
Kanti bamlinga, bamvukela uNkulunkulu oPhezukonke, kabazigcinanga izifakazelo zakhe.
57 Ne bamuvaako ne baba bakuusa nga bajjajjaabwe bwe baali, ne baggwaamu obwesigwa ng’omutego gw’obusaale omukyamu.
Kodwa babuyela emuva, benza ngokungathembeki njengaboyise, baphanjulwa njengedandili elikhohlisayo.
58 Kubanga baasunguwaza Katonda olw’ebifo ebigulumivu bo bye beegunjira okusinzizangamu, ne bamukwasa obuggya olwa bakatonda baabwe abalala.
Ngoba bamthukuthelisa ngezindawo zabo eziphakemeyo, bavusa umona wakhe ngezithombe zabo ezibaziweyo.
59 Katonda bwe yabiraba n’asunguwala nnyo, n’aviira ddala ku Isirayiri.
UNkulunkulu esizwa wathukuthela, wamenyanya kakhulu uIsrayeli.
60 N’ava mu weema ey’omu Siiro, eweema mwe yabeeranga ng’ali mu bantu be.
Ngakho walitshiya ithabhanekele leShilo, ithente alimisa phakathi kwabantu.
61 N’awaayo amaanyi ge mu busibe, n’ekitiibwa kye n’akiwaayo eri omulabe.
Wasenikela amandla akhe ekuthunjweni, lenkazimulo yakhe esandleni sesitha.
62 Abantu be yabaleka ne battibwa n’ekitala, n’asunguwalira omugabo gwe.
Wasenikela abantu bakhe enkembeni, waselithukuthelela ilifa lakhe.
63 Omuliro ne gusaanyaawo abavubuka baabwe abalenzi, ne bawala baabwe ne babulwa ow’okubawasa.
Umlilo waqeda amajaha abo, lezintombi zabo kazihlatshelelwanga.
64 Bakabona baabwe battibwa n’ekitala, ne bannamwandu baabwe tebaasobola kubakungubagira.
Abapristi babo bawa ngenkemba, labafelokazi babo kabalilanga.
65 Awo Mukama n’alyoka agolokoka ng’ali nga ava mu tulo, ng’omusajja omuzira azuukuka mu tulo ng’atamidde.
Khona iNkosi yavuka njengobelele, njengeqhawe eliklabalala ngenxa yewayini.
66 N’akuba abalabe be ne badduka; n’abaswaza emirembe gyonna.
Yazitshaya izitha zayo emuva, yazithela ihlazo phakade.
67 Mukama yaleka ennyumba ya Yusufu, n’ekika kya Efulayimu n’atakironda;
Yasilahla ithente likaJosefa, kayikhethanga isizwe sakoEfrayimi.
68 naye n’alonda ekika kya Yuda, lwe lusozi Sayuuni lwe yayagala.
Kodwa yakhetha isizwe sakoJuda, intaba yeZiyoni eyithandayo.
69 N’azimba awatukuvu we ne wagulumira ng’ensozi empanvu; ne waba ng’ensi gye yanyweza emirembe gyonna.
Yayakha indlu yayo engcwele njengezingqonga, njengomhlaba ewusekeleyo kuze kube nininini.
70 Yalonda Dawudi omuweereza we; n’amuggya mu kulunda endiga.
Yasikhetha uDavida inceku yayo, yamthatha ezibayeni zezimvu;
71 Ave mu kuliisa endiga, naye alundenga Yakobo, be bantu be, era alabirirenga Isirayiri omugabo gwe, gwe yeerondera.
ekulandeleni izimvukazi ezenyisayo, yamletha ukwelusa uJakobe abantu bayo, loIsrayeli ilifa layo.
72 N’abalabirira n’omutima ogutaliimu bukuusa, n’abakulembera n’amagezi g’emikono gye.
Njalo wabelusa njengobuqotho benhliziyo yakhe, wabakhokhela ngobugabazi bezandla zakhe.
