Tewali n’Omu mugolokofu
5 (A)“Dduka ogende eno n’eri mu nguudo za Yerusaalemi,
tunulatunula olabe,
noonya wonna we bakuŋŋaanira,
bw’onoosanga omuntu omu bw’ati
omwesimbu ow’amazima,
nnaasonyiwa ekibuga kino.
2 (B)Ne bwe boogera nti, ‘Nga Mukama bwali omulamu;’
baba balayirira bwereere.”
3 (C)Ayi Mukama Katonda, amaaso go teganoonya mazima?
Wabakuba naye ne batawulira bulumi wababetenta,
naye ne bagaana okukangavvulwa.
Beeyongedde kukakanyala, bagubye obwenyi okusinga n’amayinja;
era bagaanyi okwenenya.
4 (D)Ne njogera nti,
“Bano baavu abasirusiru.
Kubanga tebamanyi kkubo lya Mukama,
amateeka ga Katonda waabwe.
5 (E)Kale ndigenda eri abakulembeze
njogere nabo;
Kubanga bamanyi ekkubo lya Mukama,
amateeka ga Katonda waabwe.”
Naye nabo bwe batyo baali baamenya dda ekikoligo
nga baakutula ebisiba.
6 (F)Noolwekyo empologoma eriva mu kibira n’ebalya,
n’omusege ogw’omu ddungu gulibasaanyaawo.
Engo erikuumira okumpi n’ebibuga byabwe,
buli muntu abifuluma ayuzibweyuzibwe;
Kubanga ebibi byabwe bingi,
okudda ennyuma kunene.
7 (G)“Mbasonyiwe ntya?
Abaana bammwe banvuddeko,
ne balayiririra bakatonda abatali bakatonda.
Bwe nabaliisa ne bakkuta, badda mu kwenda,
ne beekuŋŋaanya ku nnyumba z’abenzi.
8 (H)Baali ng’embalaasi ennume ezikkuse ezitaamye,
buli muntu ng’akaayanira muka munne.
9 (I)Lwaki sibabonereza olw’ebintu ebyo?
bw’ayogera Mukama,
Lwaki siwoolera ggwanga ku nsi
efaanana bw’etyo?”
Ekiragiro ky’Okulumba Yuda
10 (J)“Yita mu nnimiro z’emizabbibu gyabwe ogyonooneyonoone,
naye togimalirawo ddala.
Giggyeeko amatabi gaagyo,
kubanga si bantu ba Mukama.
11 (K)Kubanga ennyumba ya Isirayiri n’ennyumba ya Yuda
zifuukidde ddala njeemu gye ndi,”
bw’ayogera Mukama.
12 (L)Boogedde eby’obulimba ku Mukama ne bagamba nti,
“Talina kyajja kukola,
tewali kabi kanaatugwako,
era tetujja kulaba wadde kitala oba kyeya.
13 (M)Bannabbi mpewo buwewo
era ekigambo tekibaliimu;
noolwekyo leka kye boogera kikolebwe ku bo.”
14 (N)Noolwekyo bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama, Katonda ow’Eggye nti,
“Kubanga abantu boogedde ebigambo bino,
ndifuula ekigambo kyange mu kamwa kammwe okuba ng’omuliro,
n’abantu bano okuba enku era omuliro gubookye.
15 (O)Laba, mbaleetera eggwanga eriva ewala,
ggwe ennyumba ya Isirayiri,” bw’ayogera Mukama.
Ensi eyaguma ey’edda,
abantu ab’olulimi lwe mutamanyi
aboogera bye mutategeera
16 omufuko gwabwe ogw’obusaale guli ng’entaana eyasaamiridde,
bonna balwanyi nnamige.
17 (P)Balirya amakungula gammwe n’emmere yammwe;
balirya batabani bammwe era ne bawala bammwe;
balye emizabbibu n’emitiini gyammwe,
ebibuga byammwe ebiriko bbugwe bye mwesiga birizikirizibwa n’ebitala.
18 (Q)Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti, “Naye ne mu nnaku ezo sigenda kubazikiririza ddala kubamalawo. 19 (R)Era abantu bammwe bwe bagamba nti, ‘Lwaki Katonda waffe atukoze ebintu bino byonna?’ Onoobagamba nti, ‘Nga bwe mwanvaako ne muweereza bakatonda abalala mu nsi yammwe, mujja kuweereza bakatonda abagwira mu nsi eteri yammwe.’
20 “Langirira kino mu nnyumba ya Yakobo,
kirangirire mu Yuda.
21 (S)Wulira kino, mmwe abantu abasirusiru abatalina kutegeera,
abalina amaaso naye nga tebalaba,
abalina amatu naye nga tebawulira.
22 (T)Temuntya?” bw’ayogera Mukama;
“temunkankanira?
Nateeka omusenyu okuba ensalo y’ennyanja,
olukomera olutaliggwaawo, lwetasobola kuvvuunuka;
wadde ng’amayengo galukubaakuba, tegasobola kuluwaguza,
gayinza okuwuluguma, naye tegasobola kuluyitako.
23 (U)Naye abantu bano balina omutima omwewagguze era omujeemu.
Bajeemye banvuddeko.
24 (V)Abateekuba mu kifuba kugamba nti, ‘Tutye Mukama Katonda waffe agaba enkuba,
eya ddumbi n’eya ttoggo,
mu ntuuko zaayo;
atugerekera ssabbiiti ez’okukunguliramu.’ ”
25 Obutali butuukirivu bwammwe bubibakwese
ebibi byammwe bibaggyeeko ebirungi.
26 (W)“Kubanga abasajja abakozi b’ebibi basangibwa mu bantu bange;
abagalamira ne balindirira ng’abasajja abatezi b’obunyonyi.
Batega abantu omutego.
27 (X)Ng’ebisero ebijjudde ebinyonyi,
enju zaabwe bwe zijjudde eby’enkwe.
Noolwekyo bafuuse ab’amaanyi abagagga,
ne bagejja era ne banyirira.
28 (Y)Ekibi kyabwe tekiriiko kkomo, tebasala misango mu bwenkanya,
abatawolereza bataliiko ba kitaabwe okubayamba basinge emisango,
era abatafaayo ku ddembe lya bakateeyamba.
29 Lwaki sibabonereza olw’ebintu ebyo?”
bw’ayogera Mukama.
“Nneme okwesasuza ku ggwanga

Jeremiah 5
New International Version
Jeremiah 5
New International Version
Not One Is Upright
5 “Go up and down(A) the streets of Jerusalem,
look around and consider,(B)
search through her squares.
If you can find but one person(C)
who deals honestly(D) and seeks the truth,
I will forgive(E) this city.
2 Although they say, ‘As surely as the Lord lives,’(F)
still they are swearing falsely.(G)”
3 Lord, do not your eyes(H) look for truth?
You struck(I) them, but they felt no pain;
you crushed them, but they refused correction.(J)
They made their faces harder than stone(K)
and refused to repent.(L)
4 I thought, “These are only the poor;
they are foolish,(M)
for they do not know(N) the way of the Lord,
the requirements of their God.
5 So I will go to the leaders(O)
and speak to them;
surely they know the way of the Lord,
the requirements of their God.”
But with one accord they too had broken off the yoke
and torn off the bonds.(P)
6 Therefore a lion from the forest(Q) will attack them,
a wolf from the desert will ravage(R) them,
a leopard(S) will lie in wait near their towns
to tear to pieces any who venture out,
for their rebellion is great
and their backslidings many.(T)
7 “Why should I forgive you?
Your children have forsaken me
and sworn(U) by gods that are not gods.(V)
I supplied all their needs,
yet they committed adultery(W)
and thronged to the houses of prostitutes.(X)
8 They are well-fed, lusty stallions,
each neighing for another man’s wife.(Y)
9 Should I not punish them for this?”(Z)
declares the Lord.
“Should I not avenge(AA) myself
on such a nation as this?
10 “Go through her vineyards and ravage them,
but do not destroy them completely.(AB)
Strip off her branches,
for these people do not belong to the Lord.
11 The people of Israel and the people of Judah
have been utterly unfaithful(AC) to me,”
declares the Lord.
12 They have lied(AD) about the Lord;
they said, “He will do nothing!
No harm will come to us;(AE)
we will never see sword or famine.(AF)
13 The prophets(AG) are but wind(AH)
and the word is not in them;
so let what they say be done to them.”
14 Therefore this is what the Lord God Almighty says:
“Because the people have spoken these words,
I will make my words in your mouth(AI) a fire(AJ)
and these people the wood it consumes.(AK)
15 People of Israel,” declares the Lord,
“I am bringing a distant nation(AL) against you—
an ancient and enduring nation,
a people whose language(AM) you do not know,
whose speech you do not understand.
16 Their quivers(AN) are like an open grave;
all of them are mighty warriors.
17 They will devour(AO) your harvests and food,
devour(AP) your sons and daughters;
they will devour(AQ) your flocks and herds,
devour your vines and fig trees.(AR)
With the sword(AS) they will destroy
the fortified cities(AT) in which you trust.(AU)
18 “Yet even in those days,” declares the Lord, “I will not destroy(AV) you completely. 19 And when the people ask,(AW) ‘Why has the Lord our God done all this to us?’ you will tell them, ‘As you have forsaken me and served foreign gods(AX) in your own land, so now you will serve foreigners(AY) in a land not your own.’
20 “Announce this to the descendants of Jacob
and proclaim(AZ) it in Judah:
21 Hear this, you foolish and senseless people,(BA)
who have eyes(BB) but do not see,
who have ears but do not hear:(BC)
22 Should you not fear(BD) me?” declares the Lord.
“Should you not tremble(BE) in my presence?
I made the sand a boundary for the sea,(BF)
an everlasting barrier it cannot cross.
The waves may roll, but they cannot prevail;
they may roar,(BG) but they cannot cross it.
23 But these people have stubborn and rebellious(BH) hearts;
they have turned aside(BI) and gone away.
24 They do not say to themselves,
‘Let us fear(BJ) the Lord our God,
who gives autumn and spring rains(BK) in season,
who assures us of the regular weeks of harvest.’(BL)
25 Your wrongdoings have kept these away;
your sins have deprived you of good.(BM)
26 “Among my people are the wicked(BN)
who lie in wait(BO) like men who snare birds
and like those who set traps(BP) to catch people.
27 Like cages full of birds,
their houses are full of deceit;(BQ)
they have become rich(BR) and powerful
28 and have grown fat(BS) and sleek.
Their evil deeds have no limit;
they do not seek justice.
They do not promote the case of the fatherless;(BT)
they do not defend the just cause of the poor.(BU)
29 Should I not punish them for this?”
declares the Lord.
“Should I not avenge(BV) myself
on such a nation as this?
