U-Isaya 65
1 Ngadingwa yilabo abangangicelanga; ngatholwa yilabo abangangidinganga. Ngathi: Ngikhangelani, ngikhangelani, esizweni esingabizwa ngebizo lami.
Mukama n’alyoka agamba nti, “Nze nnali mwetegefu okweyoleka eri abo abaali tebannoonya. Neeraga abo abaali tebannoonya. Eri eggwanga eryali litakoowoola linnya lyange nneyoleka gye bali ng’aŋŋamba nti, ‘Ndi wano, Ndi wano.’
2 Ngelule izandla zami usuku lonke ebantwini abavukelayo, abahamba ngendlela engalunganga, belandela imicabango yabo;
Nagolola emikono gyange olunaku lwonna okutuusa obudde okuziba eri abantu abeewagguzze, abatambulira mu makubo amabi abagoberera entegeka ezaabwe ku bwabwe;
3 abantu abangithukuthelisayo njalonjalo ebusweni bami, abenza imihlatshelo ezivandeni, betshisa impepha phezu kwezitina;
abantu bulijjo abansomooza mu maaso gange gennyini nga bawaayo ebiweebwayo mu nnimiro ne bookera n’ebiweebwayo ku byoto eby’amatoffaali;
4 abahlala emangcwabeni, balale endaweni ezisithekileyo, abadla inyama yengulube, lomhluzi wezinto ezinengekayo emiganwini yabo.
abatuula mu malaalo ne bamalako ekiro kyonna mu bifo ebyekusifu, abalya ennyama y’embizzi, era n’amaseffuliya gaabwe gajjudde ennyama etali nnongoofu.
5 Abathi: Xeka wena, ungasondeli kimi; ngoba ngingcwele kulawe. Laba bayintuthu emakhaleni ami, umlilo otshisayo usuku lonke.
Bagamba nti, ‘Beera wala, tojja kumpi nange, kubanga ndi mutuukirivu nnyo ggwe okunsaanira!’ Abantu bwe batyo mukka mu nnyindo zange, omuliro ogwaka olunaku lwonna.
6 Khangela, kubhaliwe phambi kwami: Kangiyikuthula, kodwa ngizaphindisela, yebo ngiphindisele esifubeni sabo,
“Laba kiwandiikiddwa mu maaso gange. Sijja kusirika naye nzija kusasula mu bujjuvu, nzija kubasasula bibatuukireko ddala;
7 iziphambeko zenu, leziphambeko zaboyihlo kanyekanye, itsho iNkosi, abatshise impepha phezu kwezintaba, bangithuka phezu kwamaqaqa; ngakho ngizalinganisa imisebenzi yabo yakuqala esifubeni sabo.
olw’ebibi byammwe byonna era n’olw’ebibi bya bakitammwe,” bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda. “Kubanga baayokera ebiweebwayo byabwe ku lusozi era ne bannyoomera ku busozi, ndibalira mu mikono gyabwe empeera yennyini enzijuvu ey’ebikolwa byabwe eby’edda.”
8 Itsho njalo iNkosi: Njengewayini elitsha litholwa ehlukuzweni, lomunye athi: Ungalibhubhisi, ngoba isibusiso sikulo; ngizakwenza njalo ngenxa yenceku zami, ukuze ngingazibhubhisi zonke.
Bw’atyo bw’ayogera Mukama: “Ng’omubisi bwe gusangibwa mu kirimba ky’emizabbibu abantu ne bagamba nti, ‘Togwonoona, gukyalimu akalungi,’ bwe ntyo bwe ndikibakolera olw’obulungi bw’abaweereza bange. Sijja kubasaanyaawo bonna.
9 Njalo ngizaveza inzalo ivela kuJakobe, lakoJuda kuvele indlalifa yezintaba zami; labakhethiweyo bami bazakudla ilifa lazo, lenceku zami zihlale khona.
Ndiggya ezzadde okuva mu Yakobo era ne mu Yuda abo abalitwala ensozi zange; abantu bange abalonde balizigabana, era eyo abaweereza bange gye balibeera.
10 Njalo iSharoni izakuba yisibaya semihlambi, lesihotsha seAkori sibe yindawo yokulala yenkomo, eyabantu bami abangidingayo.
Awo Saloni kiribeera ddundiro lya bisibo, era n’ekiwonvu kya Akoli kifo kya nte we zigalamira olw’abantu bange abannoonya.
11 Kodwa lina elidela iNkosi, elikhohlwa intaba yami engcwele, elihlelele leloviyo itafula, njalo eligcwalisele lelonani umnikelo wokunathwayo.
“Naye mmwe abava ku Mukama ne mwerabira olusozi lwange olutukuvu ne muteekerateekera emmeeza katonda wammwe, Mukisa, ne mujuliza katonda wammwe, Kusalawo, ebikopo eby’envinnyo,
12 Ngakho ngizalimisela inkemba, njalo lonke lizakhothamela ukuhlatshwa; ngoba ngalibiza, kodwa kaliphendulanga, ngakhuluma, kodwa kalizwanga, kodwa lenza okubi emehlweni ami, lakhetha lokho engingathokozanga ngakho.
ndibawaayo eri ekitala era mwenna mukutaamirire musalibwe, kubanga nabayita naye temwayitaba, nayogera naye temwampuliriza. Mwakola ebitasaana era ne musalawo okukola ebitansanyusa.”
13 Ngakho itsho njalo iNkosi uJehova: Khangela, izinceku zami zizakudla, kodwa lina lizalamba; khangela, inceku zami zizanatha, kodwa lina lizakoma; khangela, inceku zami zizathokoza, kodwa lina lizayangeka;
Noolwekyo kino Mukama Ayinzabyonna ky’agamba: “Abaweereza bange bajja kulya, naye mmwe mujja kulumwa enjala, abaweereza bange bajja kunywa, naye mmwe mulumwe ennyonta; abaweereza bange bajja kujaguza, naye mmwe mukwatibwe ensonyi.
14 khangela, inceku zami zizahlabela ngentokozo yenhliziyo, kodwa lina lizakhala ngenxa yokudabuka kwenhliziyo, liqhinqe isililo ngenxa yokudabuka komoya.
Abaweereza bange bajja kuyimba olw’essanyu erinaaba mu mitima gyabwe, naye mmwe muli ba kukaaba olw’okulumwa okunaabeera mu mitima gyammwe era mukaabe olw’okulumwa emyoyo.
15 Njalo lizatshiya ibizo lenu libe yisiqalekiso kwabakhethiweyo bami, ngoba iNkosi uJehova izalibulala; kodwa izabiza inceku zayo ngelinye ibizo;
Ekikolimo kiryoke kibagwire, Nze Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye mbatte amannya gammwe geerabirwe, naye mpe amannya amaggya abo abaŋŋondera.
16 ukuthi lowo ozibusisa emhlabeni uzazibusisa kuNkulunkulu weqiniso, lalowo ofunga emhlabeni uzafunga ngoNkulunkulu weqiniso; ngoba inhlupheko zakuqala sezikhohlakele, njalo ngoba zisithekile emehlweni ami.
Kiryoke kibeere nti buli muntu ananoonya okufuna omukisa anaagunoonya kuva eri Katonda Ow’amazima buli anaalayiranga mu ggwanga anaalayiranga Katonda ow’amazima. Kubanga emitawaana egyayita gya kwerabirwa gikwekebwe okuva mu maaso gange.
17 Ngoba khangela, ngidala amazulu amatsha lomhlaba omutsha; okwakuqala kakusayikukhunjulwa, kumbe kuvele enhliziyweni.
“Laba nditonda eggulu eriggya n’ensi empya. Ebintu eby’edda tebijja kujjukirwa wadde okulowoozebwako mu mutima.
18 Kodwa jabulani, lithokoze kuze kube laphakade ngengikudalayo, ngoba khangela, ngidala iJerusalema ibe yintokozo, labantu bayo babe yinjabulo.
Naye musanyukire ekyo kye ntonda mujaguze emirembe n’emirembe, kubanga nditonda Yerusaalemi okuba essanyu n’abantu baamu okuba okujaguza.
19 Ngizathokoza-ke ngeJerusalema, ngijabule ngabantu bami; njalo kalisayikuzwakala kuyo ilizwi lokulila lelizwi lokukhala.
Ndijaguza olwa Yerusaalemi era nsanyukire abantu bange; amaloboozi ag’okukaaba tegaliddayo kuwulirwamu.
20 Kusukela lapho kakusayikuba khona usane lwezinsuku, kumbe ixhegu elingagcwalisi insuku zalo; ngoba omutsha uzakufa eleminyaka elikhulu, kodwa isoni esileminyaka elikhulu sizaqalekiswa.
“Teriddayo kuba mu kyo mwana muwere anaaberawo ennaku obunaku, oba omusajja omukulu ataamalengayo myaka gye; oyo alifiira ku myaka ekikumi alitwalibwa ng’omuvubuka obuvubuka. Oyo atalituusa kikumi abalibwe ng’eyakolimirwa.
21 Njalo bazakwakha izindlu, bahlale kuzo; bahlanyele izivini, badle izithelo zazo.
Balizimba ennyumba bazisulemu, balisimba emizabbibu balye ebibala byagyo.
22 Kabayikwakha, kuhlale-ke omunye; kabayikuhlanyela, kudle-ke omunye; ngoba insuku zabantu bami zizakuba njengensuku zesihlahla, labakhethwa bami bazakholisa umsebenzi wezandla zabo okwesikhathi eside.
Tebalizimba nnyumba ate omulala agisulemu, tebalisimba ate omulala abirye. Kubanga emyaka gy’emiti nga bwe giba bwe gityo bwe giribeera emyaka gy’abantu bange. Abalonde bange balirwawo nga bawoomerwa emirimu gy’emikono gyabwe.
23 Kabayikutshikatshikela ize, loba bazalele uhlupho; ngoba bayinzalo yababusisiweyo beNkosi, lembewu yabo kanye labo.
Tebalikolera bwereere oba okuzaala abaana ab’okugwa mu katyabaga, kubanga balibeera abantu abaweebwa Mukama Katonda omukisa, bo awamu n’ab’enda yaabwe.
24 Kuzakuthi-ke bengakabizi, mina ngiphendule; lapho besakhuluma, mina-ke ngizwe.
Nga tebanakoowoola ndibaddamu, nga bakyayogera bati mbaddemu.
25 Impisi lewundlu kuzakudla ndawonye, lesilwane sidle amahlanga njengenkomo, lothuli lube yikudla kwenyoka. Kaziyikulimaza kumbe zibhubhise kuyo yonke intaba yami engcwele, itsho iNkosi.
Omusege n’omwana gw’endiga biriire wamu, era empologoma erye omuddo ng’ennume, era ettaka libeere emmere y’omusota. Tewaliba kulumya wadde kuzikiriza ku lusozi lwange olutukuvu,” bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
