Zekkaliya 5

1 Awo ne nnyimusa amaaso gange era laba ne ndaba, omuzingo gw’ekitabo ogutambulira mu bbanga.

Then again I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and, behold, a flying roll.

2 N’ambuuza nti, “Kiki ky’olaba?” Ne nziramu nti, “Ndaba omuzingo gw’ekitabo ogutambulira mu bbanga, obuwanvu bwagwo buli mita mwenda n’obugazi bwagwo buli mita nnya ne desimoolo ttaano.”

And he said to me, What do thou see? And I answered, I see a flying roll. The length of it is twenty cubits, and the breadth of it ten cubits.

3 Awo n’alyoka aŋŋamba nti, “Ekyo ky’ekikolimo ekizze okubuna ensi yonna, kubanga buli muntu yenna abba aliggyibwawo era buli muntu yenna alayiririra obwereere aliggyibwawo, bamutwale ku luuyi olulala.

Then he said to me, This is the curse that goes forth over the face of the whole land. For everyone who steals shall be cut off on the one side according to it, and everyone who swears shall be cut off on the other side according to it.

4 Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama ow’Eggye, ‘Ndikifulumya, era ndikiyingiza mu nnyumba y’omubbi ne mu nnyumba y’oyo alayiririra obwereere erinnya lyange. Era kirisigala mu nnyumba ye wakati, era kirigizikiriza yonna, emiti gyayo n’amayinja gaayo.’”

I will cause it to go forth, says Jehovah of hosts, and it shall enter into the house of the thief, and into the house of him who swears falsely by my name. And it shall abide in the midst of his house, and shall consume it, with the timber thereof and the stones thereof.

5 Malayika eyali ayogera nange n’akomawo n’aŋŋamba nti, “Yimusa amaaso go olabe, waliwo ekintu ekirala ekizze.”

Then the agent who talked with me went forth, and said to me, Lift up now thine eyes, and see what this is that goes forth.

6 Ne mubuuza nti, “Kiki ekyo?” N’anziramu nti, “Ekyo kisero, kye kifuluma.” Era n’ayongerako nti, “Ekyo kye kifaananyi ekiraga ekibi ekibunye ensi yonna.”

And I said, What is it? And he said, This is the ephah that goes forth. He said moreover, This is their appearance in all the land

7 Awo ekibikka kyakyo, ekyuma eky’essasi ne kibikkulwa era ne ndaba omukazi ng’akituddemu.

(and, behold, a talent of lead was lifted up), and this is a woman sitting in the midst of the ephah.

8 Malayika n’aŋŋamba nti, “Buno bwe bwonoonyi.” N’amusindika n’amuzza munda mu kisero, n’aggalawo omumwa gwakyo n’ekisaanikira eky’ekyuma eky’essasi.

And he said, This is Wickedness. And he cast her down into the midst of the ephah, and he cast the weight of lead upon the mouth of it.

9 Ne ndyoka nnyimusa amaaso gange, era laba, abakazi babiri nga bajja gye ndi, baali batambulira mu bbanga nga bakozesa empewo mu biwaawaatiro byabwe. Era ebiwaawaatiro byabwe nga biri ng’ebya kalooli, ne basitula ekisero mu bbanga wakati w’ensi n’eggulu.

Then I lifted up my eyes, and looked. And, behold, there came forth two women, and the wind was in their wings. Now they had wings like the wings of a stork, and they lifted up the ephah between earth and heaven.

10 Ne mbuuza malayika eyali ayogera nange nti, “Abo ekisero bakitwala wa?”

Then I said to the agent who talked with me, Where do these carry the ephah?

11 N’anziramu nti, “Mu nsi ya Sinaali ey’e Babulooni, okuzimba ennyumba y’omukazi ali mu kisero, era ennyumba ye bw’eriggwa, aliteekebwa eyo mu kifo kye.”

And he said to me, To build her a house in the land of Shinar. And when it is prepared, she shall be set there in her own place.
