Ekibi, Okwatula Ebibi, n’Okusonyiyibwa
59 (A)Mulabe, omukono gwa Mukama teguyimpawadde n’okuyinza ne gutayinza kulokola,
era si muzibe wa matu nti tawulira.
2 (B)Naye obutali butuukirivu bwammwe
bwe bubaawudde ku Katonda wammwe.
Ebibi byammwe bye bimukwesezza amaaso ge,
n’atawulira.
3 (C)Kubanga emikono gyammwe gibunye omusaayi
n’engalo zammwe zibunye obutali butuukirivu,
emimwa gyammwe gyogedde eby’obulimba,
n’ennimi zammwe z’ogedde eby’ekko.
4 (D)Tewali awaaba bya nsonga
so tewali awoza mu mazima;
Beesiga ensonga ezitaliimu, ne boogera eby’obulimba,
ne baleeta emitawaana ne bazaala obulabe.
5 (E)Baalula amagi ag’essalambwa
ne balanga ewuzi za nnabbubi:
alya ku magi gaabwe afa
n’eryo eriba lyatise livaamu mbalasaasa.
6 (F)Naye enkwe zaabwe ze bakola tezibayamba,
ziri ng’engoye enkole mu wuzi za nnabbubi!
Tebasobola kuzeebikka.
Emirimu gyabwe mirimu gya kwonoona, n’ebikolwa byabwe bulabe.
7 (G)Ebigere byabwe byanguyirira bikole ebibi
era bapapirira bayiwe omusaayi ogutalina musango.
Ebirowoozo byabwe birowoozo bya bubi,
n’okuzika n’okuzikiriza bye biba buli we bagenda.
8 (H)Ekkubo ery’emirembe tebalimanyi
wadde okukozesa obwenkanya mu makubo gaabwe.
Beekubidde amakubo,
tewali n’omu agayitamu afuna emirembe.
9 (I)Amazima gatuli wala,
n’obutuukirivu tetubufunye.
Tunoonyezza omusana naye ekizikiza kitwesibyeko,
we tusuubira obutangaavu, tutambulidde mu bisiikirize byereere.
10 (J)Tuwammantawammanta bbugwe ng’abazibe,
ne tukwatakwata ng’abatalina maaso;
twesittala mu ttuntu ng’ekiro mu abo abalina amaanyi
ne tuba ng’abafu.
11 (K)Ffenna tuwuluguma ng’eddubu
ne tusinda nga bukaamukuukulu.
Tusuubira okuggyibwa mu kunyigirizibwa naye nga bwereere,
n’obulokozi butuliwala.
12 (L)Kubanga ebisobyo byaffe bingi mu maaso go
era ebibi byaffe bitulumiriza,
kubanga ebisobyo byaffe biri naffe,
era tumanyi obutali butuukirivu bwaffe;
13 (M)obujeemu n’enkwe eri Mukama
era n’okulekeraawo okugoberera Katonda waffe.
Okutegeka obwediimo n’okunyigiriza,
okwogera eby’obulimba n’emitima gyaffe bye girowoozezza.
14 (N)Obwenkanya buddiridde
n’obutuukirivu ne bubeera wala.
Amazima geesitalidde mu luguudo, n’obwesimbu tebuyinza kuyingira.
15 Tewali w’oyinza kusanga mazima,
era oyo ava ku kibi asuulibwa.
Mukama yakiraba n’atasanyuka
kubanga tewaali bwenkanya.
16 (O)N’alaba nga tewali muntu,
ne yennyamira nti tewali muntu ayinza kudduukirira.
Noolwekyo kwe kusalawo okukozesa omukono gwe ye kennyini
okuleeta obulokozi n’obutuukirivu bwe okuwangula.
17 (P)Yayambala obutuukirivu bwe ng’eky’omu kifuba,
era n’enkuufiira ey’obulokozi ku mutwe gwe;
n’ateekako ebyambalo by’okuwoolera eggwanga
era n’ayambala obunyiikivu ng’omunagiro.
18 Ng’ebikolwa byabwe bwe biri
bwalisasula ekiruyi ku balabe be,
n’abamukyawa
alibawa empeera yaabwe,
n’abo abali ewala mu bizinga abasasule.
19 (Q)Noolwekyo balitya erinnya lya Mukama okuva ebugwanjuba,
n’ekitiibwa kye okuva ebuvanjuba,
kubanga alijja ng’omugga ogukulukuta n’amaanyi,
omukka gwa Mukama gwe gutwala.
20 (R)“Era Omununuzi alijja mu Sayuuni,
eri abo abeenenya ebibi byabwe mu Yakobo,”
bw’ayogera Mukama.
21 (S)“Era, eno y’endagaano yange gye nkola nabo,” bw’ayogera Mukama. “Omwoyo wange ali ku ggwe era n’ebigambo byange bye ntadde mu kamwa ko, tebiivenga mu kamwa ko, oba mu kamwa k’abaana bo, wadde mu kamwa k’abaana b’abaana bo, okuva kaakano okutuusa emirembe n’emirembe,” bw’ayogera Mukama.
Isaiah 59
New International Version
Isaiah 59
New International Version
Sin, Confession and Redemption
59 Surely the arm(A) of the Lord is not too short(B) to save,
nor his ear too dull to hear.(C)
2 But your iniquities have separated(D)
you from your God;
your sins have hidden his face from you,
so that he will not hear.(E)
3 For your hands are stained with blood,(F)
your fingers with guilt.(G)
Your lips have spoken falsely,(H)
and your tongue mutters wicked things.
4 No one calls for justice;(I)
no one pleads a case with integrity.
They rely(J) on empty arguments, they utter lies;(K)
they conceive trouble and give birth to evil.(L)
5 They hatch the eggs of vipers(M)
and spin a spider’s web.(N)
Whoever eats their eggs will die,
and when one is broken, an adder is hatched.
6 Their cobwebs are useless for clothing;
they cannot cover themselves with what they make.(O)
Their deeds are evil deeds,
and acts of violence(P) are in their hands.
7 Their feet rush into sin;
they are swift to shed innocent blood.(Q)
They pursue evil schemes;(R)
acts of violence mark their ways.(S)
8 The way of peace they do not know;(T)
there is no justice in their paths.
They have turned them into crooked roads;(U)
no one who walks along them will know peace.(V)
9 So justice is far from us,
and righteousness does not reach us.
We look for light, but all is darkness;(W)
for brightness, but we walk in deep shadows.
10 Like the blind(X) we grope along the wall,
feeling our way like people without eyes.
At midday we stumble(Y) as if it were twilight;
among the strong, we are like the dead.(Z)
11 We all growl like bears;
we moan mournfully like doves.(AA)
We look for justice, but find none;
for deliverance, but it is far away.
12 For our offenses(AB) are many in your sight,
and our sins testify(AC) against us.
Our offenses are ever with us,
and we acknowledge our iniquities:(AD)
13 rebellion(AE) and treachery against the Lord,
turning our backs(AF) on our God,
inciting revolt and oppression,(AG)
uttering lies(AH) our hearts have conceived.
14 So justice(AI) is driven back,
and righteousness(AJ) stands at a distance;
truth(AK) has stumbled in the streets,
honesty cannot enter.
15 Truth(AL) is nowhere to be found,
and whoever shuns evil becomes a prey.
The Lord looked and was displeased
that there was no justice.(AM)
16 He saw that there was no one,(AN)
he was appalled that there was no one to intervene;(AO)
so his own arm achieved salvation(AP) for him,
and his own righteousness(AQ) sustained him.
17 He put on righteousness as his breastplate,(AR)
and the helmet(AS) of salvation on his head;
he put on the garments(AT) of vengeance(AU)
and wrapped himself in zeal(AV) as in a cloak.
18 According to what they have done,
so will he repay(AW)
wrath to his enemies
and retribution to his foes;
he will repay the islands(AX) their due.
19 From the west,(AY) people will fear the name of the Lord,
and from the rising of the sun,(AZ) they will revere his glory.(BA)
For he will come like a pent-up flood
that the breath(BB) of the Lord drives along.[a]
20 “The Redeemer(BC) will come to Zion,(BD)
to those in Jacob who repent of their sins,”(BE)
declares the Lord.
21 “As for me, this is my covenant(BF) with them,” says the Lord. “My Spirit,(BG) who is on you, will not depart from you,(BH) and my words that I have put in your mouth(BI) will always be on your lips, on the lips of your children and on the lips of their descendants—from this time on and forever,” says the Lord.
