1 “Khathesi-ke, ndodana yomuntu, thatha umcephe webumba uwubeke phambi kwakho, udwebe kuwo idolobho laseJerusalema.
“Kaakano omwana w’omuntu, ddira ekipande eky’ebbumba okiteeke mu maaso go, okikubeko ekifaananyi ky’ekibuga Yerusaalemi,
2 Dweba ukuvinjezelwa kwalo: Misa izindawo zokuvinjezelwa kwalo, yakha umthezuko ngaphezu kwalo, misa inkamba zokulihlasela uphinde ulihonqolozele ngezigodo zokubhidliza.
okizingize, okizimbeko bbugwe okukyetooloola, okituumeko ekifunvu, era oteekewo ensiisira okukyetooloola n’ebifunvu bye banaatomera enjuuyi zonna.
3 Emva kwalokho thatha umganu wensimbi, uwubeke unjengomduli wensimbi phakathi kwakho lomuzi ube usuphendulela ubuso bakho kuwo. Wena ukhangele ngakuwo umuzi, umuzi ube ngovinjezelweyo, wena ube ngumvimbezeli. Lokhu kuzakuba yisibonakaliso endlini ka-Israyeli.
“Oluvannyuma oddire olukalango olw’ekyuma, oluteeke okuba bbugwe ow’ekyuma wakati wo n’ekibuga, okyuke okitunuulire. Kiriba mu mbeera ey’okuzingizibwa, era naawe kizingize. Ako kaliba kabonero eri ennyumba ya Isirayiri.
4 Emva kwalokho lala ngomhlubulo wenxele, ubeke isono sendlu ka-Israyeli phezu kwakho. Kumele uthwale isono sabo okwalezonsuku ulele ngomhlubulo wakho.
“N’oluvannyuma oligalamira ku lubiriizi lwo olwa kkono n’oddira ekibi ky’ennyumba ya Isirayiri okyeteekeko. Olyetikka ekibi kyabwe ennaku z’olimala ng’ogalamidde ku lubiriizi lwo.
5 Sengikumisele inani linye lezinsuku njengeminyaka yezono zabo. Ngakho izono zendlu ka-Israyeli uzazithwala okwensuku ezingamakhulu amathathu lamatshumi ayisificamunwemunye.
Ennaku z’olimala ezenkanankana emyaka gye baamala nga boonoona. Noolwekyo olimala ennaku ebikumi bisatu mu kyenda nga weetisse ekibi ky’ennyumba ya Isirayiri.
6 Emva kokuba usuqede lokhu, lala phansi futhi, khathesi kube ngomhlubulo wakho wokunene, uthwale isono sendlu kaJuda. Ngikumisele insuku ezingamatshumi amane, usuku olulodwa lumele umnyaka munye ngamunye.
“Ekyo bw’olikimala, oligalamira nate, ku mulundi guno ku lubiriizi lwo olwa ddyo, ne weetikka ekibi ky’ennyumba ya Yuda. Olimala ennaku amakumi ana, buli lunaku mwaka.
7 Phendulela ubuso bakho ekuvinjezelweni kweJerusalema kuthi izingalo zakho zingembeswanga uphrofithe kubi ngeJerusalema.
Olikyusa amaaso go n’otunula eri okuzingizibwa kwa Yerusaalemi, okyogerereko ebigambo n’omukono gwo ogutali mubikkeko,
8 Ngizakubopha ngentambo ukuze ungatshibiliki usuka kwelinye icele usiya kwelinye uze uqede insuku zokuvinjezelwa kwakho.
Ndikusiba emiguwa n’otosobola kwekyusa okuva ku luuyi olumu okudda ku lulala, okutuusa ennaku ez’obusibe bwo lwe ziriggwaako.
9 Thatha ingqoloyi lebhali, indumba lelentili, inyawuthi lophoko; ukubeke embizeni yokugcinela ukusebenzise ekwenzeni ukudla kwakho. Kumele ukudle phakathi kwensuku ezingamakhulu amathathu lamatshumi ayisificamunwemunye ulele ngomhlubulo wakho.
“Ddira eŋŋaano ne sayiri, n’obulo, n’omukyere, n’ebijanjalo, n’enva endiirwa endala obisse mu kibya omuterekebwa, obikozese okwefumbira omugaati. Oligulya mu nnaku ezo ebikumi ebisatu mu ekyenda z’oliba ogalamidde ku luuyi olw’omubiri gwo.
10 Linganisa amashekeli angamatshumi amabili okudla ozakudla usuku ngalunye njalo ukudle ngezikhathi ezimisiweyo.
Opime gulaamu ebikumi bibiri mu amakumi asatu ez’emmere gy’olirya buli lunaku, era gy’oliriira mu biseera ebigere.
11 Njalo linganisa okukodwa kwesithupha kwehini lamanzi uwanathe ngezikhathi ezimisiweyo.
Ate opime nga kitundu kya lita ey’amazzi, oganywe mu biseera ebigere.
12 Dlana ukudla njengalapho usidla ikhekhe lebhali, ukupheke abantu bekhangele, inkuni zakho kube ngamalongwe abantu.”
Olye emmere nga bwe wandiridde keeke eya sayiri; ogifumbe n’obusa bw’omuntu, ng’abantu balaba.”
13 UThixo wathi, “Ngokunjalo abantu bako-Israyeli bazakudla ukudla okungcolileyo phakathi kwezizwe engizabaxotshela kuzo.”
Mukama n’aŋŋamba nti, “Mu ngeri eno abantu ba Isirayiri baliriira emmere etali nnongoofu mu mawanga gye ndibasindika.”
14 Lapho-ke mina ngathi, “Akunjalo, Thixo Wobukhosi. Angikaze ngizingcolise. Kusukela ebutsheni bami kuze kube khathesi angikaze ngidle loba yini etholakale ifile kumbe edlithizwe yizinyamazana. Akulanyama engcolileyo eseyake yangena emlonyeni wami.”
Ne njogera nti, “Nedda Ayi Mukama Katonda. Sseeyonoonesanga, era okuva mu buto bwange n’okutuusa kaakano siryanga kifu wadde ekitaaguddwataaguddwa ensolo enkambwe. Siryanga nnyama etali nnongoofu.”
15 Wasesithi, “Kulungile. Ngizakuvumela ukuba upheke isinkwa sakho ngamalongwe enkomo esikhundleni samalongwe abantu.”
N’ayogera nti, “Weewaawo, nnaakukkiriza okukozesa obusa bw’ente okufumba omugaati mu kifo ky’obusa bw’abantu.”
16 Waphinda wathi kimi, “Ndodana yomuntu, ngizavala ukungeniswa kokudla eJerusalema. Abantu bazakudla ukudla kokwabelwa benqineka, banathe lamanzi okwabelwa bengelathemba,
N’oluvannyuma n’aŋŋamba nti, “Omwana w’omuntu, ndisalako emmere eri mu Yerusaalemi. Abantu balirya emmere engere mu kutya, ne banywa amazzi amapime mu kutya,
17 ngoba ukudla lamanzi kuzakuba yingcosana. Bazakwethuka lapho bebonana, njalo bazacikizeka ngenxa yezono zabo.”
kubanga emmere n’amazzi biriba bya bbula. Tebalyagala kwetunulako, era baliggwaawo olw’ekibi kyabwe.”
