14 Ekigambo kya Mukama ekyajjira Yerusaalemi ekikwata ku kyeya.
2 (A)“Yuda ekungubaga n’ebibuga byayo bifaafaaganye,
bakaabira ensi,
era omulanga
gusimbuse mu Yerusaalemi.
3 (B)Abakungu batuma abaddu baabwe okuleeta amazzi;
bagenda mu ttanka ez’omu ttaka nga temuli kantu,
bakomawo n’ebintu ebikalu;
ensonyi nga zibakutte
n’essuubi nga libaweddemu;
babikka amaaso gaabwe.
4 (C)Ettaka lyatise
kubanga enkuba tekyatonnya,
abalimi baweddemu amaanyi,
babikka ku mitwe gyabwe.
5 (D)N’empeewo ku ttale ezaala
n’ereka awo omwana gwayo
kubanga tewali muddo.
6 (E)N’ennyumbu ez’omu nsiko ziyimirira ku busozi obukalu
nga ziwejjawejja ng’ebibe,
amaaso gaazo nga tegalaba bulungi
kubanga tezirina kye zirya.”
7 (F)Wadde obutali butuukirivu bwaffe butulumiriza, Ayi Mukama,
baako ky’okola olw’erinnya lyo.
Kubanga tuzze ennyuma emirundi mingi,
tukwonoonye nnyo.
8 (G)Ayi ggwe essuubi lya Isirayiri,
Omulokozi waalyo mu biseera eby’okulabiramu ennaku,
lwaki oli ng’omuyise mu nsi,
ng’omutambuze asula ekiro ekimu?
9 (H)Lwaki oli ng’omuntu gwe baguddeko obugwi,
ng’omulwanyi ataliimu maanyi ganunula?
Ggwe, Ayi Mukama Katonda, oli wakati mu ffe,
era tuyitibwa linnya lyo.
Totuleka.
10 (I)Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda ku bantu be nti,
“Baagala nnyo okubula,
tebaziyiza bigere byabwe.
Noolwekyo Mukama tabakkiriza
era kaakano wakujjukira obutali butuukirivu bwabwe
era ababonereze olw’ebibi byabwe.”
11 (J)Awo Mukama Katonda n’aŋŋamba nti, “Tosabira bantu bano kubeera bulungi. 12 (K)Newaakubadde nga basiiba, sijja kuwulira kukaaba kwabwe, era wadde bawaayo ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa n’ebiweebwayo eby’empeke, sijja kubikkiriza. Naye nnaabazikiriza n’ekitala, n’enjala ne kawumpuli.”
13 (L)Naye ne njogera nti, “Woowe, Mukama Katonda, bannabbi abalala babagamba nti, ‘Tewajja kubaawo lutalo wadde okulumwa enjala. Naye nzija kuleeta mirembe egitakoma mu kifo kino.’ ”
14 (M)Awo Mukama n’alyoka aŋŋamba nti, “Bannabbi bawa obunnabbi obw’obulimba mu linnya lyange, sibatumanga wadde okubalagira okwogera nabo. Babategeeza okwolesebwa okw’obulimba n’obunnabbi obutaliimu, n’obutaliimu bw’emitima gyabwe. 15 (N)Noolwekyo, bw’atyo bw’ayogera Mukama, ebikwata ku bannabbi abategeeza ebyobunnabbi mu linnya lyange wadde nga sibatumanga, era abagamba nti, ‘Ekitala n’enjala tebijja kujja mu nsi eno.’ Bannabbi abo bennyini bajja kuzikirizibwa ekitala n’enjala. 16 (O)N’abantu be bategeezezza obunnabbi balifa enjala n’ekitala ne bakasukibwa mu nguudo babulweko abaziika, bo ne bakazi baabwe, ne batabani baabwe, n’abawala. Kubanga ndibayiwako obusungu obubasaanira.
17 (P)“Kino ky’oba obagamba nti,
“ ‘Leka amaaso gange gakulukute amaziga
emisana n’ekiro awatali kukoma;
kubanga muwala wange embeerera, abantu bange,
bafunye ekiwundu ekinene,
ekintu eky’amaanyi.
18 (Q)Bwe ŋŋenda mu byalo
ndaba abafumitiddwa n’ekitala!
Bwe ŋŋenda mu kibuga
ndaba okutaagulwataagulwa okw’enjala.
Naye nnabbi ne kabona beeyongera okukola emirimu gyabwe mu ggwanga
kyokka nga bye boogera bya bulimba.’ ”
19 (R)Yuda ogigaanidde ddala?
Sayuuni ogyetamiriddwa ddala?
Otufumitidde ddala awatali kuwonyezebwa?
Twasuubira emirembe naye tewali kalungi ke tufunye,
ekiseera eky’okuwonyezebwa
naye laba tufunye bulabe bwereere.
20 (S)Ayi Mukama tukkiriza ebibi byaffe
era n’obutali butuukirivu bwa bajjajjaffe,
kubanga ddala twayonoona gy’oli.
21 (T)Olw’erinnya lyo totugoba,
tovumaganyisa ntebe yo ey’obwakabaka ey’ekitiibwa.
Jjukira endagaano gye wakola naffe,
togimenya, gituukirize.
22 (U)Waliwo ku bakatonda ababajje bannaggwanga asobola okutonnyesa enkuba?
Eggulu ku bw’alyo lisobola okuleeta enkuba?
Nedda, wabula ggwe, Ayi Mukama Katonda waffe.
Noolwekyo essuubi lyaffe liri mu ggwe,
kubanga ggwe okola bino byonna.
Jeremiah 14
New International Version
Jeremiah 14
New International Version
Drought, Famine, Sword
14 This is the word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah concerning the drought:(A)
2 “Judah mourns,(B)
her cities languish;
they wail for the land,
and a cry goes up from Jerusalem.
3 The nobles send their servants for water;
they go to the cisterns
but find no water.(C)
They return with their jars unfilled;
dismayed and despairing,
they cover their heads.(D)
4 The ground is cracked
because there is no rain in the land;(E)
the farmers are dismayed
and cover their heads.
5 Even the doe in the field
deserts her newborn fawn
because there is no grass.(F)
6 Wild donkeys stand on the barren heights(G)
and pant like jackals;
their eyes fail
for lack of food.”(H)
7 Although our sins testify(I) against us,
do something, Lord, for the sake of your name.(J)
For we have often rebelled;(K)
we have sinned(L) against you.
8 You who are the hope(M) of Israel,
its Savior(N) in times of distress,(O)
why are you like a stranger in the land,
like a traveler who stays only a night?
9 Why are you like a man taken by surprise,
like a warrior powerless to save?(P)
You are among(Q) us, Lord,
and we bear your name;(R)
do not forsake(S) us!
10 This is what the Lord says about this people:
“They greatly love to wander;
they do not restrain their feet.(T)
So the Lord does not accept(U) them;
he will now remember(V) their wickedness
and punish them for their sins.”(W)
11 Then the Lord said to me, “Do not pray(X) for the well-being of this people. 12 Although they fast, I will not listen to their cry;(Y) though they offer burnt offerings(Z) and grain offerings,(AA) I will not accept(AB) them. Instead, I will destroy them with the sword,(AC) famine(AD) and plague.”(AE)
13 But I said, “Alas, Sovereign Lord! The prophets(AF) keep telling them, ‘You will not see the sword or suffer famine.(AG) Indeed, I will give you lasting peace(AH) in this place.’”
14 Then the Lord said to me, “The prophets are prophesying lies(AI) in my name. I have not sent(AJ) them or appointed them or spoken to them. They are prophesying to you false visions,(AK) divinations,(AL) idolatries[a] and the delusions of their own minds. 15 Therefore this is what the Lord says about the prophets who are prophesying in my name: I did not send them, yet they are saying, ‘No sword or famine will touch this land.’ Those same prophets will perish(AM) by sword and famine.(AN) 16 And the people they are prophesying to will be thrown out into the streets of Jerusalem because of the famine and sword. There will be no one to bury(AO) them, their wives, their sons and their daughters.(AP) I will pour out on them the calamity they deserve.(AQ)
17 “Speak this word to them:
“‘Let my eyes overflow with tears(AR)
night and day without ceasing;
for the Virgin(AS) Daughter, my people,
has suffered a grievous wound,
a crushing blow.(AT)
18 If I go into the country,
I see those slain by the sword;
if I go into the city,
I see the ravages of famine.(AU)
Both prophet and priest
have gone to a land they know not.(AV)’”
19 Have you rejected Judah completely?(AW)
Do you despise Zion?
Why have you afflicted us
so that we cannot be healed?(AX)
We hoped for peace
but no good has come,
for a time of healing
but there is only terror.(AY)
20 We acknowledge(AZ) our wickedness, Lord,
and the guilt of our ancestors;(BA)
we have indeed sinned(BB) against you.
21 For the sake of your name(BC) do not despise us;
do not dishonor your glorious throne.(BD)
Remember your covenant(BE) with us
and do not break it.
22 Do any of the worthless idols(BF) of the nations bring rain?(BG)
Do the skies themselves send down showers?
No, it is you, Lord our God.
Therefore our hope is in you,
for you are the one who does all this.(BH)
