Obunnabbi Obukwata ku Babulooni
121:1 a Is 13:21; Yer 51:43 b Zek 9:14Obunnabbi obukwata ku Ddungu eririraanye ennyanja:
Ng’embuyaga bwe zikunta nga ziyita mu nsi ey’obukiikaddyo,
bw’atyo alumba bw’ava mu ddungu
eririraanye ensi etiisa.
221:2 a Zab 60:3 b Is 33:1 c Is 22:6; Yer 49:34Nfunye okwolesebwa okw’entiisa:
alyamu olukwe akola omulimu gwe, n’omunyazi anyaga.
Eramu, lumba! Obumeedi zingiza!
Ndikomya okusinda kwonna kwe yaleeta.
321:3 Zab 48:6; Is 26:17Omubiri gwange kyeguvudde gulumwa,
n’obulumi bunkwata, ng’omukazi alumwa okuzaala;
nnyiize olw’ebyo bye mpulira,
bye ndaba bimazeemu amaanyi.
4Omutima gwange gutya,
Entiisa endetera okukankana;
Akasendabazaana ke nnali njayaanira,
kanfukidde ekikankano.
521:5 Yer 51:39, 57; Dan 5:2Bateekateeka olujjuliro,
bayalirira ebiwempe,
ne balya, ne banywa!
Mugolokoke mmwe abakulembeze,
musiige engabo amafuta.
6Kino Mukama ky’aŋŋamba nti,
“Genda ofune omukuumi
akuleetere amawulire ku ebyo by’alaba.
721:7 nny 9Bw’alaba amagaali
n’ebibinja by’embalaasi,
n’abeebagazi ku ndogoyi
oba abeebagazi ku ŋŋamira
yeekuume,
era yeegendereze.”
821:8 Kbk 2:1Awo omukuumi n’ayogera mu ddoboozi ery’omwanguka ng’agamba nti,
“Mukama wange, buli lunaku nnyimirira ku munaala,
buli kiro mbeera ku mulimu gwange.
921:9 a Kub 14:8 b Yer 51:8; Kub 18:2 c Is 46:1; Yer 50:2; 51:44Laba omusajja wuuno ajjira mu ggaali,
ng’alina n’ekibinja ky’embalaasi.
Era ayanukula bw’ati nti,
‘Babulooni kigudde, weewaawo kigudde.
Ebifaananyi bya bakatonda baakyo byonna
bibetenteddwa wansi ku ttaka.’ ”
1021:10 Yer 51:33Abantu bange, abasesebbuddwa ku gguuliro,
mbategeeza kyempulidde okuva eri Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye, Katonda wa Isirayiri.
Obunnabbi obukwata ku Edomu

Waliwo ankowoola okuva mu Seyiri ng’ayogera nti,
“Omukuumi, bunaakya ddi?
Omukuumi, bunaakya ddi?”
12Omukuumi ayanukula bw’ati nti,
“Bulikya, era buliziba.
Bw’obaako ne ky’obuuza kibuuze
okomewo nate.”
Obunnabbi obukwata ku Buwalabu
1321:13 Is 13:1Obunnabbi obukwata ku Buwalabu:
Mmwe Abadedeni abatambulira mu bibinja,
abasiisira mu bisaka bya Buwalabu,
1421:14 Lub 25:15muleetere abalumwa ennyonta amazzi; mmwe ababeera mu Teema, muleetere abanoonyi b’obubudamu emmere.
1521:15 Is 13:14Badduka ekitala,
badduka ekitala ekisowole,
badduka omutego ogunaanuddwa,
badduka n’akabi k’entalo.
1621:16 a Is 16:14 b Is 17:3 c Zab 120:5; Is 60:7Bw’ati Mukama bw’aŋŋamba nti, “Mu mwaka gumu, ng’endagaano gye bakolera omukozi bw’eba, ekitiibwa kyonna ekya Kedali kirikoma. 1721:17 Is 10:19Ku b’obusaale abaliwona, ne ku basajja abalwanyi abazira ab’e Kedali, walisigalawo batono.” Mukama Katonda wa Isirayiri ayogedde.
1The burden of the desert of the sea. As whirlwinds in the south pass through; so it cometh from the desert, from a terrible land. 2A grievous vision is declared unto me; the treacherous dealer dealeth treacherously, and the spoiler spoileth. Go up, O Elam: besiege, O Media; all the sighing thereof have I made to cease.21.2 grievous: Heb. hard 3Therefore are my loins filled with pain: pangs have taken hold upon me, as the pangs of a woman that travaileth: I was bowed down at the hearing of it; I was dismayed at the seeing of it. 4My heart panted, fearfulness affrighted me: the night of my pleasure hath he turned into fear unto me.21.4 heart…: or, mind wandered21.4 turned: Heb. put 5Prepare the table, watch in the watchtower, eat, drink: arise, ye princes, and anoint the shield. 6For thus hath the Lord said unto me, Go, set a watchman, let him declare what he seeth. 7And he saw a chariot with a couple of horsemen, a chariot of asses, and a chariot of camels; and he hearkened diligently with much heed: 8And he cried, A lion: My lord, I stand continually upon the watchtower in the daytime, and I am set in my ward whole nights:21.8 he…: or, cried as a lion21.8 whole…: or, every night 9And, behold, here cometh a chariot of men, with a couple of horsemen.

11¶ The burden of Dumah. He calleth to me out of Seir, Watchman, what of the night? Watchman, what of the night? 12The watchman said, The morning cometh, and also the night: if ye will enquire, enquire ye: return, come.
13¶ The burden upon Arabia. In the forest in Arabia shall ye lodge, O ye travelling companies of Dedanim. 14The inhabitants of the land of Tema brought water to him that was thirsty, they prevented with their bread him that fled.21.14 brought: or, bring ye 15For they fled from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war.21.15 from the swords: or, for fear, etc: Heb. from the face, etc 16For thus hath the Lord said unto me, Within a year, according to the years of an hireling, and all the glory of Kedar shall fail: 17And the residue of the number of archers, the mighty men of the children of Kedar, shall be diminished: for the LORD God of Israel hath spoken it.21.17 archers: Heb. bows
