1 Abantu tebalina lutalo ku nsi? N'ennaku zaabwe tezifaanana nnaku z'oyo akolera empeera?
2 Ng'omuddu ayaayaanira ennyo ekisiikirize, Era ng'oyo akolera empeera bw'asuubira empeera ye:
3 Bwe ntyo nange bwe mmazibwa emyezi egitaliiko kye gigasa, N'ebiseera eby'ekiro ebinkooya byanteekerwawo.
4 Bwe ngalamira ne njogera nti Naayimuka ddi? naye ekiro kirwawo; Era nsula nneekubiira okukeesa obudde.
5 Omubiri gwange gwambadde envunyu n'amafunfugu; Eddiba lyange liziba ne litulika nate.
6 Ennaku zange ziwulukuka mangu okusinga obutanta bw'omulusi w'engoye, Era ziggwaawo awatali ssuubi.
7 Woowe, jjukira ng'obulamu bwange mpewo: Amaaso gange tegakyalaba nate birungi.
8 Eriiso ly'oyo andaba terikyandaba nate: Amaaso go galiba ku nze, naye nga siriiwo.
9 Ekire nga bwe kiggwaawo ne kibula, Bw'atyo n'oyo akka mu magombe taalinnyenga kuvaayo.
10 Taddenga nate mu nnyumba ye, So n'ekifo kye tekiimumanyenga nate.
11 Kyennaava nnema okuziyiza akamwa kange; Naayogeza obubalagaze bw'omwoyo gwange; Neemulugunyisa obuyinike bw'emmeeme yange.
12 Nze nnyanja, oba lukwata, N'okussaako n'onzisaako abankuuma?
13 Bwe njogera nti Ekitanda kyange kinansanyusa, Ekiriri kyange kinaawummuza okwemulugunya kwange;
14 Kale n'olyoka ontiisa n'ebirooto, N'onkanga n'okwolesebwa:
15 Emmeeme yange n'okweroboza ne yeeroboza okutugibwa, N'okufa okusinga amagumba gange gano.
16 Ntamiddwa obulamu bwange; saagala kuba mulamu ennaku zonna: Ndeka; kubanga ennaku zange teziriimu.
17 Omuntu kye kiki, ggwe okumukuza, Era ggwe okumussaako omwoyo gwo.
18 N'okumujjira buli nkya, N'okumukema buli kaseera?
19 Olituusa wa obutanziyangako maaso, N'obutandekanga okumala okumira amalusu gange?
20 Oba nga nnyonoonye, nkukola ki ggwe, ggwe alabirira abantu? Kiki ekyakunteesaawo okuba sabbaawa gy'oli, N'okuzitowa ne nneezitoowerera nze nzekka?
21 Era kiki ekikulobera okusonyiwa okusobya kwange n'okuggyawo obutali butuukirivu bwange? Kubanga kaakano naagalamira mu nfuufu; Naawe olinnoonyeza ddala, naye nze nga siriiwo.
