2 UPhetro 2
1 Kodwa kwakukhona labaprofethi bamanga phakathi kwabantu, njengoba lakini kuzakuba khona abafundisi bamanga, abazangenisa ngensitha imfundiso ezehlukanisayo ezichithayo, bephika leNkosi eyabathengayo, bezehlisela ukuchitheka okuphangisayo,
Naye waaliwo ne bannabbi ab’obulimba mu bantu, era nga bwe walibaawo abayigiriza ab’obulimba mu mmwe. Baliyingiza mu nkiso enjigiriza enkyamu etwala abantu mu kuzikirira. Balyegaana ne Mukama waffe, ne beereetako okuzikirira okw’amangu.
2 labanengi bazalandela incithakalo zabo; okungabo indlela yeqiniso izahlanjazwa,
Abantu bangi baligoberera empisa zaabwe ez’obukaba ne bavumaganyisa ekkubo ery’amazima;
3 njalo emhawini ngamazwi alungisiweyo bazakwenza inzuzo ngani; okulahlwa kwabo kwakudala kakulibalanga, lencithakalo yabo kayiwozeli.
balibafunamu amagoba mangi nga bakozesa ebigambo eby’obulimba olw’omululu gwabwe. Abo Katonda yabasalira dda omusango era n’okuzikirizibwa kwabwe tekubuusibwabuusibwa.
4 Ngoba uba uNkulunkulu engaziyekelanga ingilosi ezonayo, kodwa eziphosela esihogweni ezinikela emaketaneni obumnyama ukuze zigcinelwe isigwebo; (Tartaroō g5020)
Katonda teyasaasira bamalayika abaayonoona, wabula yabasuula mu lukonko oluwanvu olujjudde ekizikiza, gye bali, nga basibiddwa mu njegere nga balindirira olunaku olw’okusalirwako omusango. (Tartaroō g5020)
5 njalo kaliyekelanga ilizwe lendulo, kodwa walondoloza owesificaminwembili uNowa umtshumayeli wokulunga, mhla eletha uzamcolo emhlabeni wabeyisa uNkulunkulu;
N’ensi ey’edda teyagisaasira, n’aleeta amataba ku nsi okuzikiriza abo abataamutya, n’alokolako Nuuwa eyabuulira obutuukirivu wamu n’abalala musanvu.
6 ngokuyichitha eyitshisa imizi yeSodoma leGomora waseyilahla, waseyenza isibonelo kulabo abazakweyisa uNkulunkulu;
Era yasalira omusango abaali mu bibuga by’e Sodomu n’e Ggomola bwe yabazikiriza, ne bisirikka mu muliro, bw’atyo n’alaga ebyo ebigenda okutuuka ku buli atatya Katonda.
7 wasemophula uLothi olungileyo, owahlutshwa yikuhamba ngamanyala kwabangalunganga;
Kyokka n’awonya Lutti, omutuukirivu, eyalumwanga ennyo olw’obulamu obw’abantu abo abajeemu.
8 ngoba lowo olungileyo, ehlala phakathi kwabo, ngokubona lokuzwa insuku ngensuku wazwisa ubuhlungu umphefumulo wakhe olungileyo ngemisebenzi yabo engelamthetho;
Olw’okubanga yababeerangamu, buli lunaku, yalabanga era n’awuliranga ebikolwa eby’obujeemu bye baakolanga, ekyo ne kimuleetera okunyolwa mu mwoyo gwe omutuukirivu.
9 iNkosi iyakwazi ukubophula ekulingweni labo abamkhonzayo uNkulunkulu, lokubagcina abangalunganga kuze kube lusuku lwesigwebo, bajeziswe;
Mukama amanyi okuwonya n’okuggya mu kugezesebwa abamutya, n’abonereza abatali bakkiriza okutuusa ku lunaku olw’okusalirako omusango,
10 kodwa ikakhulu bona abalandela inyama enkanukweni engcolileyo, labadelela ubukhosi. Abangakhathaliyo, abalenkani, kabesabi ukuhlambaza ubukhosi;
n’okusingira ddala abo abagoberera okwegomba kwabwe okw’omubiri ne banyooma abakulembeze baabwe. Tebaliiko kye batya, beerowoozaako bokka, era tebakwatibwa na nsonyi kuvuma baakitiibwa.
11 kanti ingilosi, ezinkulu ngamandla langengalo, kazilethi isigwebo senhlamba ukumelana labo phambi kweNkosi.
Kyokka bo bamalayika newaakubadde be basinga abayigiriza abo amaanyi n’obuyinza, bwe batwala ensonga ezo eri Mukama waffe tebakozesa lulimi luvuma.
12 Kodwa laba, njengezinyamazana ngemvelo ezingelangqondo ezazalelwa ukubanjwa lokubulawa, bahlambaza izinto abangazaziyo, bazabhujiswa ekuboleni kwazo,
Abantu bali bavuma ne bye batategeera, bali ng’ensolo obusolo ezitaliimu magezi ezikwatibwa okuttibwa ne zizikirizibwa; era nabo okufaanana ng’ensolo ezo, bagenda kuzikirizibwa.
13 bazakwemukela umvuzo wokungalungi, abathi kuyintokozo ukuminza emini; bayisici loyangiso, bejabula enkohlisweni zabo, besidla idili lani,
Abantu abo bagenda kubonerezebwa olw’ebibi bye bakola. Kubanga buli lunaku bagoberera okwegomba kwabwe olw’okwesanyusa, era abantu abo bakwasa mmwe ensonyi era babaswaza bwe beegatta nammwe mu mbaga zammwe, nga bakola effujjo mu masanyu gaabwe.
14 balamehlo agcwele ubufebe, labangayekeli isono, bayenga imiphefumulo ebuthakathaka, belenhliziyo ezejwayele ubuhwaba, abantwana besiqalekiso;
Balina amaaso agajjude obukaba, tebalekaayo kukola kibi buli kiseera boonoona era basendasenda abatali banywevu, bajjudde omululu. Baana abaakolimirwa,
15 batshiye indlela eqondileyo baduha, balandela indlela kaBalami kaBosori, owathanda inzuzo yokungalungi,
abaakyama ne bava mu kkubo okufaanana nga Balamu mutabani wa Beyoli, eyayagala empeera ey’obutali butuukirivu.
16 kodwa waba lokusolwa kwesakhe isiphambeko; ubabhemi oyisimungulu, ekhuluma ngelizwi lomuntu, wanqanda ubuhlanya bomprofethi.
Kyokka endogoyi etayogera, Katonda bwe yagyogeza n’emumanya olw’obujeemu bwe n’eziyiza eddalu lya nnabbi oyo.
17 Laba bayimithombo engelamanzi, amayezi aqhutshwa yisiphepho, okugcinelwe bona ubumnyama bomnyama kuze kube phakade. (questioned)
Abantu abo nzizi ezitaliimu mazzi. Bali ng’ebire ebitwalibwa embuyaga, era baterekeddwa ekifo eky’ekizikiza ekikutte be zigizigi.
18 Ngoba bakhuluma okokuziqakisa okweze, babayenga ngenkanuko zenyama langobufebe labo abaphunyuke sibili kubo abahamba ekuduheni,
Boogera ebigambo eby’okwekuluntaza era ebitaliimu nsa. Mu kwegomba kw’omubiri ne mu bukaba bwabwe basendasenda abo abali okumpi n’okubadduka abakyatambulira mu kibi.
19 bebathembisa inkululeko, bona uqobo beyizigqili zokubola; ngoba lowo umuntu ehlulwe ngaye, lakuye wenziwa isigqili.
Babasuubiza eddembe, so nga bo bennyini baddu ba bikolwa ebibi eby’okuzikirira. Kubanga omuntu afuuka muddu w’ekyo ekimufuga.
20 Ngoba uba sebephunyukile ekungcoleni komhlaba ngolwazi lweNkosi loMsindisi uJesu Kristu, besebebuya behilelwa behlulwa yikho, izinto zokucina sezibe zimbi kubo kulezokuqala.
Era abantu bwe bategeera Mukama waffe era Omulokozi waffe Yesu Kristo, ne badduka okuva mu bintu ebyo eby’ensi ebyonoona era ebitwala abantu mu kuzikirira, ate ne bava awo ne babiddamu, bibasibira ddala era obulamu bwabwe bufuuka bubi nnyo okusinga bwe bwali okusooka.
21 Ngoba ngabe kwaba ngcono kubo uba babengayazanga indlela yokulunga, kulokuthi sebeyazile bafulathele umlayo ongcwele onikelwe kibo.
Ekyandisinze be bantu abo obutategeerera ddala kkubo lya Mukama waffe ery’obutuukirivu, eriggya abantu mu kuzikirira, okusinga lwe bamala okulitegeera, ate ne bava ku biragiro ebitukuvu bye baaweebwa.
22 Kodwa kubehlele lokhu okwesaga esiqinisileyo esithi: Inja ibuyela kwawayo amahlanzo; lengulube ensikazi egezileyo ekugiqikeni edakeni.
Olugero olwagerebwa kyeluva lutuukirira ku bo olugamba nti, “Embwa eridde ebisesemye byayo,” na luno nti: “Embizzi eva okunaazibwa ezzeeyo okwekulukuunya mu bitosi.”
