1Ekigambo kya Mukama ne kinzijira ng’agamba nti, 212:2 Is 6:10; Ez 2:6-8; Mat 13:15“Omwana w’omuntu obeera mu bantu abajeemu. Balina amaaso okulaba, naye tebalaba, balina n’amatu okuwulira naye tebawulira, kubanga bantu bajeemu.
312:3 a Yer 36:3 b Yer 26:3 c 2Ti 2:25-26“Noolwekyo omwana w’omuntu, sibako ebibyo ogende mu buwaŋŋanguse, ate kikole misana, nga balaba ogende mu kifo ekirala. Oboolyawo balitegeera, newaakubadde nga nnyumba njeemu. 412:4 nny 12; Yer 39:4Fulumya ebibyo by’otwala mu buwaŋŋanguse emisana, nga balaba. Ate akawungeezi, ofulume nga balaba, ogende ng’abo abagenda mu buwaŋŋanguse. 5Botola ekituli mu bbugwe oyiseemu ebibyo, nga balaba. 612:6 nny 12; Is 8:18; 20:3; Ez 4:3; 24:24Biteeke ku kibegabega kyo nga balaba, obifulumye obudde nga buwungeera. Bikka ku maaso oleme okulaba ensi, kubanga nkufudde akabonero eri ennyumba ya Isirayiri.”
712:7 Ez 24:18; 37:10Ne nkola nga bwe ndagiddwa. Emisana, ne nfulumya ebintu byange nga neetegese okugenda mu buwaŋŋanguse. Akawungeezi ne nkuba ekituli mu bbugwe n’engalo zange, ne nfulumya ebyange nga mbitadde ku kibegabega kyange nga balaba, obudde nga buwungedde, enjuba ng’ebuliddeyo.

10“Bagambe nti, ‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti, obubaka buno bukwata ku mufuzi ali mu Yerusaalemi, n’abantu ba Isirayiri bonna abaliyo.’ 1112:11 2Bk 25:7; Yer 15:2; 52:15Bagambe nti, ‘Ndi kabonero gye muli.’
“Nga bwe nkoze, nabo bwe balikibakola. Baliwaŋŋangusibwa ne batwalibwa nga bawambe.
1212:12 a Yer 39:4 b Yer 52:7“Omufuzi ali mu bo aliteeka ebintu bye ku kibegabega kye agende ng’obudde buwungedde, enjuba ng’ebuliddeyo, balibotola ekituli mu bbugwe ayitemu agende. Alibikka amaaso ge, aleme kulaba nsi. 1312:13 a Ez 17:20; 19:8; Kos 7:12 b Is 24:17-18 c Yer 39:7 d Yer 52:11; Ez 17:16Ndimwanjuliriza ekitimba kyange, akwatibwe mu mutego gwange. Ndimutwala e Babulooni, mu nsi ey’Abakaludaaya, naye taligiraba, era eyo gy’alifiira. 1412:14 2Bk 25:5; Ez 5:10, 12Ndisaasaanyiza eri empewo zonna, bonna abamwetoolodde, abakozi be n’eggye lye lyonna era ndibawondera n’ekitala ekisowoddwa.
15“Balimanya nga nze Mukama bwe ndibasaasaanya mu mawanga, ne mbabunya mu nsi. 1612:16 Yer 22:8-9; Ez 6:8-10; 14:22Kyokka ndirekawo batono ku bo abaliwona ekitala, n’abaliwona enjala n’abaliwona kawumpuli, balyoke bejjuse olw’ebikolwa byabwe eby’emizizo, nga bali eyo mu mawanga. Olwo balitegeera nga nze Mukama.”

Mu nnaku zo ggwe ennyumba enjeemu, ndyogera ekigambo era ndikituukiriza, bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.’ ”
26Ekigambo kya Mukama ne kinzijira ng’agamba nti, 2712:27 Dan 10:14“Omwana w’omuntu, laba, ennyumba ya Isirayiri egamba nti, ‘Okwolesebwa kwalaba kw’amyaka mingi okuva ne kaakano, era ayogera obunnabbi obulibaawo mu bbanga ery’ewala.’

1The word of the LORD also came unto me, saying, 2Son of man, thou dwellest in the midst of a rebellious house, which have eyes to see, and see not; they have ears to hear, and hear not: for they are a rebellious house. 3Therefore, thou son of man, prepare thee stuff for removing, and remove by day in their sight; and thou shalt remove from thy place to another place in their sight: it may be they will consider, though they be a rebellious house.12.3 stuff: or, instruments 4Then shalt thou bring forth thy stuff by day in their sight, as stuff for removing: and thou shalt go forth at even in their sight, as they that go forth into captivity.12.4 as they…: Heb. as the goings forth of captivity 5Dig thou through the wall in their sight, and carry out thereby.12.5 Dig…: Heb. Dig for thee 6In their sight shalt thou bear it upon thy shoulders, and carry it forth in the twilight: thou shalt cover thy face, that thou see not the ground: for I have set thee for a sign unto the house of Israel. 7And I did so as I was commanded: I brought forth my stuff by day, as stuff for captivity, and in the even I digged through the wall with mine hand; I brought it forth in the twilight, and I bare it upon my shoulder in their sight.12.7 digged: Heb. digged for me
8¶ And in the morning came the word of the LORD unto me, saying, 9Son of man, hath not the house of Israel, the rebellious house, said unto thee, What doest thou? 10Say thou unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; This burden concerneth the prince in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel that are among them. 11Say, I am your sign: like as I have done, so shall it be done unto them: they shall remove and go into captivity.12.11 they…: Heb. by removing go into captivity 12And the prince that is among them shall bear upon his shoulder in the twilight, and shall go forth: they shall dig through the wall to carry out thereby: he shall cover his face, that he see not the ground with his eyes. 13My net also will I spread upon him, and he shall be taken in my snare: and I will bring him to Babylon to the land of the Chaldeans; yet shall he not see it, though he shall die there. 14And I will scatter toward every wind all that are about him to help him, and all his bands; and I will draw out the sword after them. 15And they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall scatter them among the nations, and disperse them in the countries. 16But I will leave a few men of them from the sword, from the famine, and from the pestilence; that they may declare all their abominations among the heathen whither they come; and they shall know that I am the LORD.12.16 a few…: Heb. men of number
17¶ Moreover the word of the LORD came to me, saying, 18Son of man, eat thy bread with quaking, and drink thy water with trembling and with carefulness; 19And say unto the people of the land, Thus saith the Lord GOD of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and of the land of Israel; They shall eat their bread with carefulness, and drink their water with astonishment, that her land may be desolate from all that is therein, because of the violence of all them that dwell therein.12.19 all that…: Heb. the fulness thereof 20And the cities that are inhabited shall be laid waste, and the land shall be desolate; and ye shall know that I am the LORD.
21¶ And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, 22Son of man, what is that proverb that ye have in the land of Israel, saying, The days are prolonged, and every vision faileth? 23Tell them therefore, Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will make this proverb to cease, and they shall no more use it as a proverb in Israel; but say unto them, The days are at hand, and the effect of every vision. 24For there shall be no more any vain vision nor flattering divination within the house of Israel. 25For I am the LORD: I will speak, and the word that I shall speak shall come to pass; it shall be no more prolonged: for in your days, O rebellious house, will I say the word, and will perform it, saith the Lord GOD.
26¶ Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying, 27Son of man, behold, they of the house of Israel say, The vision that he seeth is for many days to come, and he prophesieth of the times that are far off. 28Therefore say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; There shall none of my words be prolonged any more, but the word which I have spoken shall be done, saith the Lord GOD.
