1 Vuka, ukhanye, ngoba ukukhanya kwakho kufikile, lodumo lweNkosi luphume phezu kwakho.
“Yimuka, oyake, kubanga ekitangaala kyo kizze kyase era ekitiibwa kya Mukama kikwakirako.
2 Ngoba khangela, umnyama uzasibekela umhlaba, lomnyama omkhulu izizwe; kodwa iNkosi izaphuma phezu kwakho, lodumo lwayo luzabonakala phezu kwakho.
Kubanga laba ensi eribikkibwa ekizikiza era n’ekizikiza ekikutte ennyo kibikke abantu baamawanga gonna, naye ggwe Mukama alikwakirako era ekitiibwa kye kikulabikeko.
3 Labezizwe bazakuza ekukhanyeni kwakho, lamakhosi ekukhazimuleni kokuphuma kwakho.
Amawanga galijja eri omusana gwo ne bakabaka eri okumasamasa okunaakubangako ng’ojja.
4 Phakamisa amehlo akho inhlangothi zonke, ubone; bonke bayabuthana, beze kuwe; amadodana akho azavela khatshana, lamadodakazi akho azakondliwa eceleni.
“Yimusa amaaso go olabe; abantu bo bonna bakuŋŋaana okujja gy’oli batabani bo abava ewala ne bawala bo abasituliddwa mu mikono.
5 Khona uzabona, ugeleze ndawonye, lenhliziyo yakho izakwesaba, yenziwe banzi; ngoba ubunengi bolwandle buzaphendulelwa kuwe, amabutho ezizwe azakuza kuwe.
Kino oli wakukirabako ojjule essanyu, omutima gwo, gujjule okweyagala n’okujaguza. Obugagga bw’amawanga bulyoke bukuleetebwe, era n’ebirungi byonna eby’omu nnyanja birikweyuna.
6 Ubunengi bamakamela buzakwembesa, amakamela amatsha eMidiyani leEfa; wonke evela eShebha azakuza; azaletha igolide lempepha, amemezele indumiso zeNkosi.
Ebisibo by’eŋŋamira birijjula ensi yammwe, eŋŋamira ento ez’e Midiyaani ne Efa. Era ne zonna ez’e Seba zirijja nga zeetisse zaabu n’obubaane okulangirira ettendo lya Katonda.
7 Yonke imihlambi yeKedari izabuthelwa kuwe; izinqama zeNebayothi zizakukhonza; zizakuza ngokwemukeleka phezu kwelathi lami, njalo ngizadumisa indlu yodumo lwami.
N’ebisibo byonna eby’e Kedali birikukuŋŋanyizibwa, endiga ennume ez’e Nebayoosi zirikuweereza. Zirikkirizibwa ng’ekiweebwayo ku kyoto kyange era ndyolesa ekitiibwa kyange mu yeekaalu yange.
8 Ngobani laba abandiza njengeyezi, lanjengamajuba esiya emawindini awo?
“Bano baani abaseyeeya nga ebire, ng’amayiba agadda mu bisu byago?
9 Qotho izihlenge zizangilindela, lemikhumbi yeThashishi kuqala, ukuletha amadodana akho evela khatshana, isiliva sawo legolide lawo kanye lawo, kulo ibizo leNkosi uNkulunkulu wakho, lakoNgcwele kaIsrayeli, ngoba ukudumisile.
Ddala ddala ebizinga bitunuulidde nze; ebidyeri by’e Talusiisi bye bikulembedde bireete batabani bammwe okubaggya ewala awamu ne zaabu yaabwe ne ffeeza, olw’ekitiibwa kya Mukama Katonda wammwe, Omutukuvu wa Isirayiri, kubanga akufudde ow’ekitiibwa.
10 Lamadodana abezizwe azakwakha imiduli yakho, lamakhosi abo akukhonze; ngoba elakeni lwami ngakutshaya, kodwa ngomusa wami ngikuhawukele.
“Abaana b’abamawanga amalala balizimba bbugwe wo, era bakabaka baabwe bakuweereze; Olw’obusungu bwange, nakukuba, naye mu kusaasira kwange ndikukwatirwa ekisa.
11 Njalo amasango akho azahlala evulekile, emini lebusuku kawayikuvalwa, ukuze bakulethele inotho yabezizwe, lamakhosi azo alethwe.
Emiryango gyo ginaabanga miggule bulijjo, emisana n’ekiro tegiggalwenga, abantu balyoke bakuleeterenga obugagga obw’amawanga gaabwe nga bakulembeddwamu bakabaka baabwe.
12 Ngoba isizwe lombuso okungayikukukhonza kuzabhubha; yebo, lezozizwe zizaphela nya.
Kubanga eggwanga oba obwakabaka ebitakuweereze byakuzikirira. Ensi ezo zijja kuggweerawo ddala.
13 Udumo lweLebhanoni luzakuza kuwe, isihlahla sefiri, umangwe, lomsayiphuresi kanyekanye, ukucecisa indawo yendlu yami engcwele; njalo ngizakwenza indawo yenyawo zami ikhazimule.
“Ekitiibwa kya Lebanooni kirikujjira, emiti egy’ettendo egy’enfugo, omuyovu ne namukago gireetebwe okutukuza ekifo eky’awatukuvu wange, ekifo ebigere byange we biwummulira eky’ettendo.
14 Amadodana lawo awabakucindezelayo azakuza kuwe akhothame; labo bonke abakudelelayo bazakhothamela kungaphansi yezinyawo zakho, bakubize ngokuthi umuzi weNkosi, iZiyoni yoNgcwele kaIsrayeli.
Batabani baabo abaakunyigirizanga balijja okukuvuunamira; era bonna abaakusekereranga balivuunamira ku bigere byo. Balikuyita kibuga kya Katonda, Sayuuni ey’Omutukuvu wa Katonda.
15 Esikhundleni sokuthi wawutshiyiwe, wazondwa, okokuthi kwakungekho odabula phakathi kwakho, ngizakwenza ube ludumo laphakade, intokozo yezizukulwana ngezizukulwana.
“Wadde nga wali olekeddwa awo ng’okyayibbwa, nga tewali n’omu akuyitamu, ndikufuula ow’ettendo, essanyu ery’emirembe gyonna.
16 Uzamunya futhi uchago lwabezizwe, yebo, umunye amabele amakhosi; njalo uzakwazi ukuthi mina Nkosi nginguMsindisi wakho loMhlengi wakho, oLamandla kaJakobe.
Olinywa amata ag’amawanga. Ku mabeere ga bakungu kw’onooyonkanga, era olimanyira ddala nti, Nze, nze Mukama, nze Mulokozi wo era Omununuzi wo, ow’Amaanyi owa Yakobo.
17 Endaweni yethusi ngizaletha igolide, lendaweni yensimbi ngilethe isiliva, lendaweni yesigodo ithusi, lendaweni yamatshe insimbi. Ngizakwenza futhi ababonisi bakho babe yikuthula, labacindezeli bakho babe yikulunga.
Mu kifo ky’ekikomo ndireeta zaabu, mu kifo ky’ekyuma ndireeta effeeza, mu kifo ky’omuti ndireeta kikomo, ne mu kifo ky’amayinja ndeete ekyuma. Emirembe gye girifuuka omufuzi wo n’obutuukirivu ne buba omukulembeze wo.
18 Udlakela kalusayikuzwakala elizweni lakho, ukuchitheka lokubhubhisa phakathi kwemingcele yakho; kodwa uzabiza imiduli yakho ngokuthi luSindiso, lamasango akho iNdumiso.
Okutabukatabuka tekuddeyo kuwulirwa mu nsi yo, wadde okwonoona n’okuzikiriza munda mu nsalo zo. Ebisenge byo olibiyita Bulokozi, Era n’enzigi zo, Kutendereza.
19 Ilanga kalisayikuba yikukhanya kuwe emini, lenyanga kayisayikukukhanyisela kube yikukhazimula; kodwa iNkosi izakuba yikukhanya okulaphakade kuwe, loNkulunkulu wakho abe ludumo lwakho.
Enjuba si yeenekumulisizanga emisana, oba omwezi okukumulisizanga ekiro. Kubanga Mukama y’anaabeeranga ekitangaala kyo eky’emirembe n’emirembe, era Katonda wo y’anaabeeranga ekitiibwa kyo.
20 Ilanga lakho kalisayikutshona, lenyanga yakho kayiyikuhlehlela nyovane; ngoba iNkosi izakuba yikukhanya kwakho okulaphakade, lensuku zokulila kwakho zizaphela.
Enjuba yo terigwa nate, n’omwezi gwo tegulibula; Mukama y’anaabeeranga ekitangaala kyo eky’emirembe n’emirembe era ennaku zo ez’okukungubanga zikome.
21 Njalo abantu bakho bonke bazakuba ngabalungileyo, badle ilifa lelizwe kuze kube laphakade, ugatsha lokuhlanyela kwami, umsebenzi wezandla zami, ukuze ngidunyiswe.
Abantu bo babeere batuukirivu, ensi ebeere yaabwe emirembe n’emirembe. Ekisimbe kye nnesimbira; omulimu gw’emikono gyange, olw’okulaga ekitiibwa kyange.
22 Omncinyane uzakuba yinkulungwane, lomncane abe yisizwe esilamandla. Mina Nkosi ngizakuphangisisa ngesikhathi sakhe.
Asembayo okuba owa wansi alyala n’aba lukumi, n’asembayo obutono afuuke eggwanga ery’amaanyi. Nze Mukama, ndikyanguya mu biseera byakyo.”
