Ekibi kya Isirayiri
13:1 Yer 5:5Ne ndyoka ŋŋamba nti,
“Muwulire mmwe abakulembeze ba Yakobo,
mmwe abafuzi b’ennyumba ya Isirayiri.
Si mmwe mwandisaanidde okumanya obwenkanya,
23:2 Zab 53:4; Ez 22:27mmwe abakyawa ekirungi ne mwagala ekibi;
mmwe ababaagako abantu bange eddiba
ne mubaggyako ennyama ku magumba?
33:3 a Zab 14:4 b Zef 3:3 c Ez 11:7Mulya ennyama yaabwe,
ne mubabaagako eddiba,
amagumba gaabwe ne mugamenyaamenya,
era ne mubasalaasala ng’ennyama
eneefumbibwa mu nsaka.”
43:4 a Zab 18:41; Is 1:15 b Ma 31:17Balikoowoola Mukama,
naye talibaanukula.
Mu biro ebyo alibakweka amaaso ge
olw’ebibi bye bakoze.
53:5 Is 3:12; 9:16Bw’atyo bw’ayogera Mukama nti,
“Bannabbi ababuzaabuza abantu
balangirira nti, ‘Mirembe,’ eri oyo abaliisa,
naye oyo atabaliisa bamuggulako olutalo.
63:6 a Is 8:19-22 b Is 29:10Noolwekyo ekiro kiribajjira, awatali kwolesebwa,
n’enzikiza ebajjire awatali kulagulwa.
Enjuba erigwa nga bannabbi balaba,
n’obudde bubazibirire.
73:7 a Mi 7:16 b Is 44:25Abalabi baliswazibwa
n’abalaguzi bakwatibwe ensonyi.
Bonna balibikka amaaso gaabwe
kubanga Katonda tabaanukula.”
83:8 Is 58:1Naye nze, nzijjudde amaanyi
n’Omwoyo wa Mukama,
okwekaliriza ensonga n’obuvumu,
njasanguze eri Yakobo olw’ebikolwa bye ebibi by’akola,
olw’ekibi kya Isirayiri.
93:9 Zab 58:1-2; Is 1:23Mumpulirize mmwe abakulembeze b’ennyumba ya Yakobo,
Mmwe abafuzi b’ennyumba ya Isirayiri,
Mmwe abanyooma obwenkanya
Ne mukyusa ekituufu ne mukifuula ekikyamu;
103:10 a Yer 22:13 b Kbk 2:12 c Ez 22:27mmwe abazimbidde Sayuuni ku musaayi,
Ne Yerusaalemi ne mugizimbira ku butali butuukirivu.
113:11 a Is 1:23; Yer 6:13; Kos 4:8, 18 b Yer 7:4Abakulembeze be, balya enguzi ne basala omusango nga beekubiira,
bakabona be, baggya ensimbi ku bantu balyoke bayigirize,
ne bannabbi be, baagala okuwa obunnabbi nga bamaze kusasulwa.
Kyokka bajuliza Mukama nga boogera nti,
“Mukama tali naffe?
Tewali kinaatutuukako.”
123:12 Yer 26:18Noolwekyo ku lwammwe,
Sayuuni eririmibwa ng’ennimiro,
ne Yerusaalemi erifuuka ntuumu ya bifunfugu,
n’akasozi okuli yeekaalu kafuuke ng’akabira akakutte.
Leaders and prophets rebuked
1Then I said,
‘Listen, you leaders of Jacob,
you rulers of Israel.
Should you not embrace justice,
2you who hate good and love evil;
who tear the skin from my people
and the flesh from their bones;
3who eat my people’s flesh,
strip off their skin
and break their bones in pieces;
who chop them up like meat for the pan,
like flesh for the pot?’
4Then they will cry out to the Lord,
but he will not answer them.
At that time he will hide his face from them
because of the evil they have done.
5This is what the Lord says:
‘As for the prophets
who lead my people astray,
they proclaim “peace”
if they have something to eat,
but prepare to wage war against anyone
who refuses to feed them.
6Therefore night will come over you, without visions,
and darkness, without divination.
The sun will set for the prophets,
and the day will go dark for them.
7The seers will be ashamed
and the diviners disgraced.
They will all cover their faces
because there is no answer from God.’
8But as for me, I am filled with power,
with the Spirit of the Lord,
and with justice and might,
to declare to Jacob his transgression,
to Israel his sin.
9Hear this, you leaders of Jacob,
you rulers of Israel,
who despise justice
and distort all that is right;
10who build Zion with bloodshed,
and Jerusalem with wickedness.
11Her leaders judge for a bribe,
her priests teach for a price,
and her prophets tell fortunes for money.
Yet they look for the Lord’s support and say,
‘Is not the Lord among us?
No disaster will come upon us.’
12Therefore because of you,
Zion will be ploughed like a field,
Jerusalem will become a heap of rubble,
the temple hill a mound overgrown with thickets.
