Ezeekyeri 23:1-49
23 Yakuwa era n’ayogera nange n’aŋŋamba nti:
2 “Omwana w’omuntu, waaliwo abakazi babiri nga bombi nnyaabwe y’omu.+
3 Bwe baali bakyali bato nga bali e Misiri,+ baatandika okukola obwamalaaya. Nga bali eyo, baayenda ne baba nga tebakyali mbeerera.
4 Omukulu yali ayitibwa Okola,* ate muganda we ng’ayitibwa Okoliba.* Bombi baafuuka bange era baazaala abaana ab’obulenzi n’ab’obuwala. Ng’amannya gaabwe bwe gali, Okola ye Samaliya+ ate Okoliba ye Yerusaalemi.
5 “Okola yatandika okukola obwamalaaya+ ng’akyali wange. Yayagalanga nnyo okwenda ne baganzi be,+ baliraanwa be Abaasuli,+
6 abaami awamu ne bagavana abaayambalanga engoye eza bbulu—bonna baali basajja abalabika obulungi abeebagalanga embalaasi.
7 Yayendanga n’abaana b’e Bwasuli bonna abasingayo obulungi, yeefuula atali mulongoofu+ n’ebifaananyi ebyenyinyaza* eby’abo be yayendanga nabo.
8 Naye teyalekayo bwamalaaya bwe yakolanga e Misiri, kubanga Abamisiri beebakanga naye ng’akyali muto; baakwatiriranga amabeere ge ne benda naye.+
9 Kyennava mmuwaayo mu mikono gya baganzi be abaana b’e Bwasuli+ be yayendanga nabo.
10 Baamwambula ne bamuleka bukunya,+ ne bawamba batabani be ne bawala be,+ ye ne bamutta n’ekitala. Yamanyibwa nnyo ng’omukazi omubi mu bakazi, era ne bamubonereza.
11 “Muganda we Okoliba bwe yakiraba, n’akabawala nnyo n’ayitirira, era n’akola obwamalaaya okusinga muganda we.+
12 Yayenda ne baliraanwa be, abaana b’e Bwasuli,+ bagavana era n’abaami abaali balabika obulungi, abaayambalanga engoye ezirabika obulungi, era abeebagalanga embalaasi.
13 Bwe yeefuula atali mulongoofu, nnakiraba nti bombi baali bakutte ekkubo lye limu.+
14 Naye Okoliba yeeyongera okukola obwamalaaya. Yalaba ebifaananyi by’abasajja ebyali byoleddwa ku kisenge, ebifaananyi by’Abakaludaaya ebyole nga bisiigiddwa langi emmyufu,
15 nga byesibye emisipi mu biwato, n’ebiremba ebirengejja ku mitwe, era nga bifaanana ng’abasajja abalwanyi, nga byonna biraga Abababulooni abaazaalibwa mu nsi y’Abakaludaaya.
16 Bwe yabiraba n’atandika okubyegomba, n’abitumira ababaka mu nsi y’Abakaludaaya.+
17 Abaana b’e Babulooni ne bajjanga ku kitanda kye, ne bamufuula atali mulongoofu n’obukaba bwabwe. Bwe baamala okumufuula atali mulongoofu n’abaleka ng’abeetamiddwa.
18 “Bwe yatandika okukola obwamalaaya mu lwatu, era ne yeeyambulanga n’asigala bukunya,+ ne mmuleka nga mmwetamiddwa, nga bwe nnaleka muganda we nga mmwetamiddwa.+
19 Yeeyongera okukola obwamalaaya,+ ng’ajjukira ekiseera bwe yali omuto, bwe yakoleranga obwamalaaya mu nsi ya Misiri.+
20 Yeegombanga nnyo okwegatta nabo nga bwe kiba eri abakazi abalina baganzi baabwe abalina ebitundu eby’ekyama ebiringa eby’endogoyi n’eby’embalaasi.
21 Ggwe Okoliba, weegomba eby’obugwenyufu bye wakolanga mu Misiri+ ng’okyali muvubuka, bwe baakukwatiriranga amabeere ag’omu buvubuka bwo.+
22 “Kale ggwe Okoliba, bw’ati Yakuwa Mukama Afuga Byonna bw’agamba, ‘Ŋŋenda kukuwendulira baganzi bo+ be waleka ng’obeetamiddwa, bakulumbe nga bava ku njuyi zonna,+
23 abaana b’e Babulooni+ n’Abakaludaaya bonna,+ abantu b’e Pekodi,+ n’ab’e Sowa, n’ab’e Kowa, awamu n’abaana b’e Bwasuli. Bonna basajja abalabika obulungi, bagavana era baami, bonna balwanyi era balondemu, era bonna beebagadde embalaasi.
24 Bajja kukulumba n’amagaali g’olutalo agakubagana, n’abasirikale bangi nnyo nga bakutte engabo ennene n’entono,* era nga bambadde sseppeewo. Bajja kukuzingiza, era nja kubawa obuyinza bakusalire omusango, era bajja kukusalira omusango nga bwe banaalaba nga kigwana.+
25 Nja kukulaga obusungu bwange era nabo bajja kukumalirako obusungu bwabwe. Bajja kukusalako ennyindo n’amatu, era abamu ku mmwe abanaasigalawo bajja kuttibwa n’ekitala. Bajja kutwala batabani bo ne bawala bo, era abamu ku mmwe abanaasigalawo bajja kwokebwa omuliro.+
26 Bajja kukwambulamu ebyambalo byo+ era bakunyageko amajolobero go agalabika obulungi.+
27 Nja kukomya ebikolwa byo eby’obugwenyufu n’obwamalaaya bwo,+ bye watandikira mu nsi ya Misiri.+ Ojja kulekera awo okubatunuulira, era tojja kuddamu kujjukira Misiri.’
28 “Bw’ati Yakuwa Mukama Afuga Byonna bw’agamba: ‘Laba ndi kumpi kukuwaayo eri abo be wakyawa, abo be waleka ng’obeetamiddwa.+
29 Bajja kukulaga obukyayi, bakunyageko byonna bye wateganira,+ era bakuleke ng’oli bwereere nga toyambadde. Obuseegu bwo n’ebikolwa byo eby’obugwenyufu, n’obwamalaaya bwo bijja kwanikibwa.+
30 Ebintu ebyo bijja kukutuukako olw’okuba wagoberera amawanga nga malaaya,+ era olw’okuba weefuula atali mulongoofu n’ebifaananyi byabwe ebyenyinyaza.+
31 Okutte ekkubo lya muganda wo,+ era nja kuteeka ekikopo kye mu mukono gwo.’+
32 “Bw’ati Yakuwa Mukama Afuga Byonna bw’agamba:
‘Ojja kunywa ku kikopo kya muganda wo ekiwanvu era ekinene’+
Ojja kusekererwa era okudaalirwe, kubanga ebintu ebyo bingi mu kikopo ekyo.+
33 Ojja kutamiira era onakuwale,Ekikopo eky’entiisa era amatongo,Ekikopo kya muganda wo Samaliya.
34 Ojja kukinywa okikalize,+ omekete ebibajjo byakyo ebyatiseyatiseEra weggyeko amabeere go.
“Kubanga nze nkyogedde,” bw’ayogera Yakuwa Mukama Afuga Byonna.’
35 “Kale bw’ati Yakuwa Mukama Afuga Byonna bw’agamba, ‘Olw’okuba onneesambidde ddala era n’onneerabirira ddala,*+ ojja kubonerezebwa olw’ebikolwa byo eby’obugwenyufu n’olw’okukola obwamalaaya.’”
36 Awo Yakuwa n’aŋŋamba nti: “Omwana w’omuntu onoolangirira omusango ogusaliddwa Okola ne Okoliba+ era n’obategeeza ebikolwa byabwe ebyenyinyaza?
37 Benze*+ era emikono gyabwe giriko omusaayi. Benze ku bifaananyi byabwe ebyenyinyaza era ne bookya* mu muliro abaana be banzaalira babe emmere eri ebifaananyi byabwe.+
38 Ate era kino kye bankoze: Ku lunaku olwo ekifo kyange ekitukuvu baakifuula ekitali kirongoofu era ne bavvoola ssabbiiti zange.
39 Bwe baamala okutta abaana baabwe ne babawaayo nga ssaddaaka eri ebifaananyi byabwe ebyenyinyaza,+ bajja mu kifo kyange ekitukuvu ne bakyonoona+ ku lunaku olwo lwennyini. Ekyo kye baakola mu nnyumba yange.
40 Baatuma n’omubaka ayite abasajja ab’ewala.+ Bwe baali bajja, wanaaba, n’osiiga langi ku maaso, era n’oyambala amajolobero.+
41 Era watuula ku kitanda ekirabika obulungi,+ nga mu maaso gaakyo waliwo emmeeza+ kwe wali otadde obubaani bwange+ n’amafuta gange.+
42 Amaloboozi g’ekibinja ky’abasajja abaali mu binyumu gaawulirwa, era mu bo mwalimu n’abasajja abatamiivu abaggibwa mu ddungu. Baayambaza abakazi obukomo ku mikono era ne babassaako n’engule ennungi ku mitwe.
43 “Awo ne njogera ku mukazi oyo eyali ayenjebuse olw’obwenzi nga ŋŋamba nti: ‘Kaakano agenda kweyongera okukola obwamalaaya.’
44 Baagendanga ewuwe, ng’omuntu bw’agenda ewa malaaya. Bwe batyo bwe baagendanga ewa Okola ne Okoliba, abakazi abagwenyufu.
45 Naye abasajja abatuukirivu bajja kumusalira omusango ogumugwanira olw’obwenzi+ n’olw’okuyiwa omusaayi;+ kubanga abakazi abo benzi era emikono gyabwe giriko omusaayi.+
46 “Bw’ati Yakuwa Mukama Afuga Byonna bw’agamba: ‘Eggye lijja kusindikibwa libalumbe, libafuule ekintu eky’entiisa era ebintu byabwe binyagibwe.+
47 Eggye lijja kubakuba amayinja+ era libatte n’ebitala byabwe. Bajja kutta batabani baabwe ne bawala baabwe+ era bookye amayumba gaabwe n’omuliro.+
48 Nja kukomya ebikolwa eby’obugwenyufu mu nsi, era abakazi bonna bajja kufuna eky’okuyiga baleme kukoppa mpisa zammwe ez’obugwenyufu.+
49 Mujja kubonerezebwa olw’ebikolwa byammwe eby’obugwenyufu n’olw’okweyonoona n’ebifaananyi byammwe ebyenyinyaza; mujja kumanya nti nze Yakuwa Mukama Afuga Byonna.’”+
