1 Naye eri Isiraeri ayogera ati Obudde okuziba nagololera emikono gyange abantu abatawulira era abagaana.
2 Katonda teyagoba bantu be, be yamanya edda. Oba temumanyi ebya Eriya ebyawandiikibwa bwe byogera? bwe yasaba Katonda ng'ayogera ku Baisiraeri nti
3 Mukama, batta bannabbi bo, ne basuula ebyoto byo: nange nfisseewo nzekka, era banoonya obulamu bwange.
4 Naye okuddamu kwa Katonda kumugamba kutya? Nti Nze nneefissirizzaawo abasajja kasanvu, abatafikaamiriranga Baali.
5 Kale bwe kityo era ne mu biro bino waliwo ekitundu ekyafikkawo mu kulonda okw'ekisa.
6 Naye oba nga lwa kisa, si lwa bikolwa nate: oba nga si bwe kityo, ekisa si kisa nate.
7 Kale tukole tutya? Isiraeri kye yanoonya, teyakiraba; naye abaalondebwa baakiraba, abalala ne bakakanyazibwa:
8 nga bwe kyawandiikibwa nti Katonda yabawa omwoyo ogw'okubongoota, amaaso ag'obutalaba, n'amatu ag'obutawulira, okutuusa ku lunaku lwa leero.
9 Era Dawudi ayogera nti Emmeeza yaabwe ebafuukire akakunizo n'ekigu, N'enkonge, n'empeera gye bali:
10 Amaaso gaabwe gasiikirizibwe obutalaba, Era obakutamyenga omugongo gwabwe bulijjo.
11 Kale njogera nti Kyebaava beesittala balyoke bagwe? Kitalo: naye olw'okwonoona kwabwe obulokozi kyebwava bujja eri ab'amawanga, okubakwasa obuggya.
12 Naye oba ng'okwonoona kwabwe bwe bugagga bw'ensi, n'okuweebuuka kwabwe bwe bugagga bw'ab'amawanga; okutuukirira kwabwe tekusinga nnyo?
13 Naye mbagamba mmwe ab'amawanga. Kale kubanga nze ndi mutume wa b'amawanga, ngulumiza okuweereza kwange:
14 bwe ndiraba ekigambo kyonna kye ndikwasisa obuggya ab'omubiri gwange, ne ndokola abamu mu bo.
15 Kuba oba ng'okugobebwa kwabwe kwe kutabaganya ensi, okusembezebwa kwabwe kiki, wabula obulamu mu bafu?
16 Era ebibala ebibereberye bwe biba ebitukuvu, era n'ekitole kitukuvu: era ekikolo bwe kiba ekitukuvu, era n'amatabi matukuvu.
17 Naye oba ng'amatabi agamu gaawogolebwa, naawe, eyali omuzeyituuni ogw'omu nsiko, wasimbibwa mu go, n'ogatta wamu nago ekikolo eky'obugevvu obw'omuzeyituuni;
18 teweenyumiririzanga ku matabi: naye bwe weenyumirizanga, si ggwe weetisse ekikolo, naye ekikolo kye kyetisse ggwe.
19 Kale onooyogera nti Amatabi kyegaava gawogolwa Me nsimbibweko.
20 Weewaawo; gaawogolwa lwa butakkiriza, naawe onywedde lwa kukkiriza. Teweegulumizanga, naye tyanga:
21 kuba oba nga Katonda teyasaasira matabi ga buzaaliranwa, era naawe talikusaasira.
22 Kale laba obulungi n'obukambwe bwa Katonda: eri abaagwa, bukambwe; naye eri ggwe bulungi bwa Katonda, bw'onoobeereranga mu bulungi bwe: bw'otoobeererenga, naawe oliwogolwa.
23 Era nabo, bwe bataabeererenga mu butakkiriza bwabwe balisimbwawo: kubanga Katonda ayinza okubasimbawo nate.
24 Kuba oba nga ggwe wawogolwa ku muzeyituuni ogwali ogw'omu nsiko mu buzaaliranwa, n'osimbibwa mu muzeyituuni omulungi obutagoberera buzaaliranwa, abo, ab'obuzaaliranwa; tebalisinga nnyo kusimbibwa mu muzeyituuni gwabwe bo?
25 Kubanga ssaagala mmwe, ab'oluganda, obutamanya kyama kino, mulemenga okubeera ab'amagezi mu maaso gammwe mwekka, ng'obukakanyavu bwabeera ku Baisiraeri mu kitundu, okutuusa okutuukirira kw'ab'amawanga lwe kulituuka;
26 era bwe kityo Abaisiraeri bonna balirokoka: nga bwe kyawandiikibwa nti Muliva mu Sayuuni Awonya; Aliggyawo obutatya Katonda mu Yakobo:
27 Era eno ye ndagaano yange eri bo, bwe ndibaggyako ebibi byabwe.
28 Mu njiri, be balabe ku lwammwe: naye mu kulondebwa, baagalwa ku lwa bajjajja.
29 Kubanga ebirabo n'okuyita kwa Katonda tebyejjusibwa.
30 Kuba nga mmwe edda bwe mutaawulira Katonda, naye kaakati musaasiddwa olw'obutawulira bw'abo,
31 bwe kityo nabo kaakati tebawulidde, olw'okusaasirwa kwammwe kaakati nabo balyoke basaasirwe.
32 Kubanga Katonda yasiba bonna mu butawulira, alyoke asaasire bonna.
33 Obuziba bw'obugagga obw'amagezi a'obw'okumanya kwa Katonda tomanyi bwe buli! emisango gye nga tegikeberekeka, n'amakubo ge nga tegekkaanyizika!
34 Kubanga ani eyali amanye ebirowoozo bya Mukama? oba ani eyali amuwadde amagezi?
35 oba ani eyali asoose okumuwa ekintu, era eliddizibwa nate?
36 Kubanga byonna biva gy'ali, era biyita gy'ali, era bituuka gy'ali. Ekitiibwa kibeerenga gy'ali emirembe gyonna Amiina.
