11:1 a Yos 17:17-18 b 1By 6:27, 34Waaliwo omusajja Omwefulayimu eyabeeranga e Lamasayimuzofimu, mu nsi ey’ensozi eya Efulayimu, ng’ayitibwa Erukaana, nga mutabani wa Yerokamu, muzzukulu wa Eriku, muzzukulu wa Toku, muzzukulu wa Zufu. 21:2 Ma 21:15-17; Luk 2:36Yalina abakyala babiri, omu nga ye Kaana; n’omulala nga ye Penina. Penina yalina abaana, naye Kaana nga mugumba.
31:3 a nny 21; Kuv 23:14; 34:23; Luk 2:41 b Ma 12:5-7 c Yos 18:1Buli mwaka omusajja oyo yayambukanga okuva mu kibuga ky’ewaabwe okugenda okusinza n’okuwaayo ssaddaaka eri Mukama ow’Eggye e Siiro1:3 Siiro Essanduuko ya Mukama ne Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu (3:3; Yos 18:1) byali olugendo lwa kilomita amakumi asatu mu bukiikakkono bwa Yerusaalemi. Era kyali kigwanidde Abayisirayiri bonna okulagangayo okusinzizaayo emirundi esatu buli mwaka (Ma 16:16-17; Kuv 23:14-19). Eyo Kofuni ne Finekaasi batabani ba Eri gye baawererezanga nga bakabona ba Mukama Katonda. 41:4 Ma 12:17-18Awo olunaku olw’okuwaayo ssaddaaka bwe lwatuuka, Erukaana, n’awa Penina ne batabani be, ne bawala be emigabo egy’ennyama. 51:5 Lub 16:1; 30:2Naye Kaana n’amuwa emigabo ebiri kubanga yamwagala nnyo, newaakubadde nga Mukama Katonda yali tamuwadde mwana. 61:6 Yob 24:21Era kubanga Mukama Katonda yali tamuwadde mwana, muggya we n’amucoccanga. 7Ebyo byabangawo buli mwaka, era bwe baayambukanga okugenda mu yeekaalu ya Mukama, muggya we n’amujoogerezanga okutuusa lwe yakaabanga, n’okulya n’atalya. 81:8 Lus 4:15Bba Erukaana n’amubuuza nti, “Kaana, okaabiranga ki? Lwaki tolya? Kiki ekikweraliikiriza? Nze sikusingira abaana ekkumi?”
91:9 1Sa 3:3Lwali lumu bwe baali bamaze okulya n’okunywa e Siiro, Eri yali atudde ku ntebe okumpi n’omulyango gwa yeekaalu1:9 Yeekaalu eyogerwako wano ye Weema ey’Okukuŋŋaanirangamu, Kaana n’asituka n’agenda mu maaso ga Mukama Katonda. 101:10 Yob 7:11Mu kulumwa olw’ennaku ennyingi ennyo, n’akaaba nnyo amaziga ng’asaba Mukama Katonda. 111:11 a Lub 8:1; 28:20; 29:32 b Kbl 6:1-21; Bal 13:5Ne yeeyama ng’agamba nti, “Ayi Mukama Ayinzabyonna, bw’olitunuulira ennaku ey’omuweereza wo, n’onzijukira, n’ompa omwana owoobulenzi, ndimuwaayo eri Mukama Katonda ennaku zonna ez’obulamu bwe nga muwonge, era enviiri ze teziimwebwengako.”
12Awo Kaana bwe yeeyongera okusaba ennyo eri Mukama Katonda, Eri ne yeekaliriza akamwa ke. 13Kaana yali asaba mu kasirise, ng’emimwa gye ginyeenya, naye nga eddoboozi lye teriwulikika. Eri n’alowooza nti atamidde. 14Eri kyeyava amugamba nti, “Olikomya ddi okujjanga wano ng’otamidde? Ggyawo ettamiiro lyo.”
151:15 Zab 42:4; 62:8; Kgb 2:19Naye Kaana n’amuddamu nti, “Si bwe kiri mukama wange; nze ndi mukazi ajjudde ennaku. Sinnanywa ku wayini newaakubadde ekitamiiza ekirala; mbadde nkaabira Mukama Katonda mu mmeeme yange. 16Omuweereza wo tomulowooza okuba omukazi ow’ekyejjo, kubanga mbadde nsindira Mukama ennaku n’obuyinike bwange.”
171:17 a Bal 18:6; 1Sa 25:35; 2Bk 5:19; Mak 5:34 b Zab 20:3-5Awo Eri n’amuddamu nti, “Genda mirembe. Katonda wa Isirayiri akuwe ekyo ky’omusabye.” 181:18 a Lus 2:13 b Mub 9:7; Bar 15:13N’ayogera nti, “Omuweereza wo alabe ekisa mu maaso go.” Oluvannyuma ne yeetambulira, n’alya ku mmere, n’atandika okutunula n’essanyu. 191:19 Lub 4:1; 30:22Awo Erukaana n’ab’ewuwe ne bagolokoka enkeera mu makya ne basinza Mukama, n’oluvannyuma ne baddayo ewaabwe e Laama. Ne yeetaba ne mukazi we Kaana, Mukama Katonda n’amujjukira. 201:20 Lub 41:51-52; Kuv 2:10, 22; Mat 1:21Kaana n’aba olubuto n’azaala omwana wabulenzi. N’amutuuma erinnya Samwiri, amakulu gaalyo, “Kubanga namusaba Mukama Katonda.”

N’agamba bba nti, “Omwana bw’aliva ku mabeere1:22 Abaana baavanga ku mabeere nga wayiseewo emyaka esatu oba oluusi n’okusingawo, ndimutwala ne mulagayo eri Mukama Katonda, era alibeera eyo ennaku ze zonna.”
231:23 nny 17; Kbl 30:7Erukaana n’amuddamu nti, “Kola nga bw’osiima. Linda okutuusa lw’olimala okumuggya ku mabeere; Mukama Katonda atuukirize ekigambo kye.” Awo omukyala n’asigala eka, n’alabirira omwana okutuusa lwe yava ku mabeere.
241:24 Kbl 15:8-10; Ma 12:5; Yos 18:1Bwe yava ku mabeere, n’amutwala mu yeekaalu ya Mukama Katonda e Siiro ng’akyali muto; ne batwala ente ssatu ennume, n’endebe ey’obutta, n’eccupa y’envinnyo. 25Bwe baamala okusala emu ku nte, ne batwala omwana eri Eri. 26Kaana n’ayogera nti, “Nga bw’oli omulamu mukama wange, nze mukyala oli eyayimirira okumpi naawe, ne nsaba Mukama Katonda. 271:27 nny 11-13; Zab 66:19-20Namusaba omwana ono, era Mukama Katonda ampadde kye namusaba. 281:28 nny 11, 22; Lub 24:26, 52Kaakano mmuwaayo eri Mukama, era obulamu bwe bwonna aweereddwayo eri Mukama Katonda.” Omwana n’asinzizanga Mukama Katonda eyo.
