ʻIsaia 16

1 Ke mou fekau ke ʻave ʻae lami ki he pule ʻoe fonua mei Sila ʻo aʻu ki he toafa, ki he moʻunga ʻoe ʻofefine ʻo Saione.

“Muweereze abaana b’endiga eri oyo afuga ensi, okuva e Seera, ng’oyita mu ddungu, okutuuka ku lusozi lwa Muwala wa Sayuuni.

2 Koeʻuhi ʻe hangē ko e manu he ʻoku kapusi mei hono pununga, ʻe pehē ʻae ʻofefine ʻo Moape ʻi he ngaahi potu mamaha ʻa ʻAlinoni.

Ng’ennyonyi ezabulwako ekisu n’ezisaasaana nga zidda eno n’eri, bwe batyo bwe baliba abawala ba Mowaabu awasomokerwa Alunooni.

3 Mou fakakaukau, fai fakapotopoto; ngaohi hoʻatā ke hangē ko e pō ʻi he hoʻatāmālie; fufū ʻae kau ʻāuhē; ʻoua naʻa fakahā ʻaia ʻoku ʻalu hēhē.

“Tuwe ku magezi, tubuulire, tukole tutya? Mutusiikirize mubeere ng’ekittuluze wakati mu ttuntu, Abajja bagobebwa mubakweke, abajja badaaga temubalyamu lukwe.

4 Tuku ke nofo kiate koe ʻa ʻeku kau ʻāuhē, ʻe Moape; ke ke hoko ko e ungaʻanga kiate kinautolu mei he mata ʻoe kaihaʻa: he kuo ngata ʻaia ʻoku fakamālohi, kuo tuku ʻae kaihaʻa, kuo ʻauha ʻae kau fakamamahi mei he fonua.

Muleke aba Mowaabu abajja bagobebwa babeere nammwe. Mubataakirize oyo ayagala okubamalawo.” Omujoozi bw’aweddewo, n’okubetentebwa ne kuggwaawo; omulumbaganyi aliggwaawo mu nsi.

5 Pea ʻe fokotuʻumaʻu ʻae nofoʻanga ʻoe tuʻi ʻi he ʻaloʻofa: pea te ne nofo ai ʻi he moʻoni ʻi he fale fehikitaki ʻo Tevita, ʻo fai ʻae fakamaau, pea kumi ki he angatonu, mo fakavave ʻae māʻoniʻoni.

Entebe ey’obwakabaka eryoke etekebwewo mu kwagala, era ku yo kutuuleko omufuzi ow’omu nnyumba ya Dawudi alamula mu bwesigwa era anoonya obwenkanya era ayanguwa okukola eby’obutuukirivu.

6 Kuo mau fanongo ki he laukau ʻa Moape; ʻoku laukau ʻaupito ia: ʻio ʻi heʻene fielahi, mo ʻene laukau, mo ʻene ʻita: ka ko e meʻa taʻeʻaonga ʻene ngaahi loi.

Tuwulidde amalala ga Mowaabu, nga bw’ajjudde okwemanya, n’amalala ge n’okuvuma; naye okwemanya kwe tekugasa.

7 Ko ia ʻe tāngiloa ʻa Moape koeʻuhi ko Moape, ʻe tangi ʻae kakai kotoa pē: te mou mamahi koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi tuʻunga ʻo Kili-Haleseti; he ko e moʻoni kuo taaʻi ʻakinautolu.

Noolwekyo leka Mowaabu akaabe, leka buli muntu akaabire ku Mowaabu. Mukungubage, musaalirwe obugaati bw’emizabbibu egy’e Kirukalesesi.

8 He kuo mae ʻae ngoue ʻo Hesiponi, pea mo e vaine ʻo Sipima: kuo fesiʻi hifo ʻe he houʻeiki ʻoe hiteni ʻa hono ngaahi ʻakau lelei, kuo nau haʻu ki Sesa, naʻa nau ʻalu fano ʻi he toafa: kuo mafola atu hono ngaahi vaʻa, kuo nau ika ʻi he tahi.

Ennimiro ez’e Kesuboni zikaze, n’emizabbibu gy’e Sibuma giweddewo. Abafuzi b’amawanga batemeddewo ddala emiti gyabwe egyasinganga obulungi, egyabunanga ne gituuka e Yazeri nga giggukira mu ddungu n’emitunsi nga gibuna nga gituukira ddala mu nnyanja.

9 Ko ia te u tangi ʻi he tangi ʻo Sesa koeʻuhi ko e vaine ʻo Sipima: te u fakaviviku koe ʻaki hoku loʻimata, ʻE Hesiponi, mo ʻIliale: he kuo ʻosi ʻae kalanga koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi fua ʻoe faʻahitaʻu mafana pea mo hoʻo ututaʻu.

Noolwekyo kyenva nkaaba amaziga nga Yazeri bw’akaaba olw’omuzabbibu ogw’e Sibuma. Nakufukirira nkutobye n’amaziga gange, ggwe Kesuboni ne Ereyale: kubanga essanyu ery’ebibala byo n’ebyokukungula byo lizikiziddwa.

10 Kuo toʻo ʻo mole ʻae fiefia, mo e nekeneka mei he ʻapi mahu; pea ʻe ʻikai ha hiva, pe ha kalanga ʻe fai ʻi he ngaahi ngoue vaine: ʻe ʻikai toe malaki ha uaine ʻe he kau malaki ʻi he ngaahi tataʻoʻanga; kuo u pule ke tuku ʻenau kalanga fiefia.

Ennimiro engimu ziweddemu essanyu n’okweyagala; ne mu nnimiro z’emizabbibu temuliba ayimba wadde aleekaana; mu masogolero temulibaamu musogozi asogoleramu nvinnyo; okuleekaana kw’omusogozi ng’asogola kukomye.

11 Ko ia ʻe tangi ʻa hoku fatu ʻo hangē ko ha haʻape koeʻuhi ko Moape, mo hoku toʻotoʻonga koeʻuhi ko Kili-Haleseti.

Omutima gwange kyeguva gukaabira Mowaabu mu ddoboozi ng’ery’ennanga, emmeeme yange munda n’ekaabira Kirukeresi.

12 Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻoka hā mai kuo ongosia ʻa Moape ʻi he potu māʻolunga, pea te ne haʻu ki hono potu tapu ke hū; ka e ʻikai te ne lavaʻi.

Awo Mowaabu bw’alyeyanjula, mu bifo ebigulumivu, alyekooya yekka; bw’aligenda okusamira, tekirimuyamba.

13 Ko eni ʻae folofola kuo folofolaʻaki ʻe Sihova, ki Moape talu ʻae kuonga ko ia.

Ekyo kye kigambo Mukama kye yayogera ku Mowaabu mu biro eby’edda.

14 Ka ko eni kuo folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻo pehē, “ʻI he teʻeki kakato ʻae taʻu ʻe tolu, hangē ko e taʻu ʻo ha taha ʻoku ngāue kae totongi, ʻe fakavaivaiʻi ʻae nāunau ʻo Moape, mo e fuʻu tokolahi ʻoku ʻi ai; pea ʻe siʻi ʻaupito pea vaivai ʻa hono toenga.”

Naye kaakano Mukama Katonda agamba nti, “Mu myaka esatu, ng’omukozi gwe bapangisizza bwe yandigibaze, ekitiibwa kya Mowaabu kijja kuba nga kifuuse ekivume ekinyoomebwa, newaakubadde ng’alina ekibiina ekinene; era walisigalawo abantu batono ate nga banafu ddala.”
