Ibulayimu n’Abagenyi Abasatu
118:1 Lub 13:18; 14:13Awo Mukama n’alabikira Ibulayimu mu mivule gya Mamule, mu ttuntu ng’atudde mu mulyango gwa weema ye. 218:2 nny 16, 22; Lub 32:24; Yos 5:13; Bal 13:6-11; Beb 13:2Bwe yasitula amaaso ge n’alaba, era laba, abasajja basatu nga bayimiridde mu maaso ge. Bwe yabalaba, n’adduka okuva mu mulyango gwa weema ye, okubasisinkana n’agwa wansi, 3n’agamba nti, “Mukama wange obanga ndabye ekisa mu maaso go, toyita ku muddu wo. 418:4 Lub 19:2; 43:24Leka tuleete otuzzi munaabe ku bigere, muwummuleko wano wansi w’omuti, 518:5 Bal 13:15nga bwe ndeeta omugaati mulyeko muddemu amaanyi, mulyoke mugende, anti muzze eri muddu wammwe.”
Ne bamugamba nti, “Kola nga bw’ogambye.”
6Ibulayimu n’ayanguwa okugenda eri Saala, n’amugamba nti, “Teekateeka mangu kilo kkumi na mukaaga ez’obutta okande ofumbire mangu abagenyi emmere.”
7Ibulayimu n’agenda bunnambiro mu kisibo n’aggyamu ennyana, ento era ennungi n’agiwa omu ku bavubuka18:7 Akyayinza okuba nga yali Isimayiri eyayanguwa okugifumba. 818:8 Lub 19:3Awo n’addira omuzigo n’amata n’ennyana eyafumbibwa n’abiteeka mu maaso gaabwe; n’ayimirira we baali, wansi w’omuti nga balya. 9Ne bamubuuza nti, “Saala mukyala wo ali ludda wa?” N’addamu nti, “Ali mu weema.”
1018:10 Bar 9:9*Mukama n’amugamba nti, “Ddala ndikomawo gy’oli mu kiseera nga kino, era Saala mukazi wo alizaala omwana owoobulenzi.”
Ne Saala yali awuliriza ng’ali mu mulyango gwa weema emabega we. 1118:11 a Lub 17:17 b Bar 4:19Mu kiseera kino Ibulayimu ne Saala baali bakaddiye nnyo nga Saala takyali na mu nsonga z’abakazi. 1218:12 a Lub 17:17; 21:6 b 1Pe 3:6Awo Saala n’asekera muli ng’agamba nti, “Nga nkaddiye, nga ne baze akaddiye, ndisanyusibwa?”
13Mukama n’abuuza Ibulayimu nti, “Lwaki Saala asese ng’agamba nti, ‘Ndiyinza okuzaala omwana nga nkaddiye?’ 1418:14 Yer 32:17, 27; Zek 8:6; Mat 19:26; Luk 1:37; Bar 4:21Waliwo ekirema Mukama? Omwaka ogujja, mu kiseera kyennyini, ndikomawo gy’oli, ne Saala alizaala omwana owoobulenzi.”
15Naye Saala ne yeegaana ng’agamba nti, “Si sese,” kubanga yali atidde.
N’amuddamu nti, “Nedda osese.”
Ibulayimu Yeegayiririra Sodomu
16Awo abasajja bwe bavaayo ne bagenda, ne boolekera oluuyi lwa Sodomu18:16 Sodomu kikyali mu kifo kye kimu we kyabeeranga, okudda mu bukiikaddyo bw’Ennyanja ey’Omunnyo; Ibulayimu n’abawerekerako. 1718:17 a Am 3:7 b Lub 19:24Mukama n’agamba mu mutima gwe nti, “Ibulayimu namukweka kye ŋŋenda okukola? 1818:18 Bag 3:8*Ibulayimu agenda kufuuka eggwanga eddene, ery’amaanyi, era mu ye, amawanga gonna mwe galiweerwa omukisa. 1918:19 a Ma 4:9-10; 6:7 b Yos 24:15; Bef 6:4Mmulonze alagire abaana be n’abantu be abaliddawo okukwatanga ekkubo lya Mukama nga bakola eby’obutuukirivu era nga ba mazima, Mukama alyoke atuukirize ekyo kye yasuubiza Ibulayimu.”
20Awo Mukama n’agamba nti, “Olw’okunkaabirira okusukkiridde olw’ebibi bya Sodomu ne Ggomola ebingi ennyo, 2118:21 Lub 11:5nzija kukka ndabe obanga ddala bakozi ba bibi ng’okunkaabirira olw’ebibi byabwe okutuuse gye ndi bwe kuli, era obanga si bwe kiri nnaamanya.”
2218:22 Lub 19:1Awo abasajja ne bakyuka okuva awo, ne batambula okwolekera Sodomu; naye Ibulayimu n’asigala ng’akyayimiridde mu maaso ga Mukama. 2318:23 Kbl 16:22Awo Ibulayimu n’amusemberera n’agamba nti, “Ddala olizikiriza abatuukirivu awamu n’ababi? 2418:24 Yer 5:1Singa mu kibuga mulimu abatuukirivu amakumi ataano onookizikiriza n’otokisonyiwa olw’abatuukirivu amakumi ataano abakirimu? 2518:25 Yob 8:3, 20; Zab 58:11; 94:2; Is 3:10-11; Bar 3:6Kireme okuba gy’oli okukola ekintu bwe kityo, okutta abatuukirivu awamu n’ababi, abatuukirivu ne benkana n’ababi! Kireme kuba bwe kityo! Omulamuzi ow’ensi yonna teyandisaanye akole kituufu?”
2618:26 Yer 5:1Mukama n’agamba nti, “Bwe nnaasanga mu Sodomu abatuukirivu amakumi ataano mu kibuga omwo nzija kusonyiwa ekibuga kyonna ku lwabwe.”
2718:27 Lub 2:7; 3:19; Yob 30:19; 42:6Ibulayimu n’addamu nti, “Laba nnyinziza okwogera ne Mukama, nze ani, nze enfuufu n’evvu! 28Singa abatuukirivu babulako bataano okuwera amakumi ataano, onoozikiriza ekibuga kubanga kubulako bataano?”
N’amuddamu nti, “Sijja kukizikiriza, bwe nnaasangamu abatuukirivu amakumi ana mu abataano abampulira.”
29Ate Ibulayimu n’amugamba nti, “Singa musangibwamu amakumi ana.”
Mukama n’amuddamu nti, “Ku lw’amakumi ana sijja kukizikiriza.”
30Ate n’agamba nti, “Kale nno Mukama aleme okunsunguwalira, nange nnaayogera. Singa musangibwamu amakumi asatu.”
N’addamu nti, “Sijja kukizikiriza singa musangibwamu amakumi asatu.”
31N’agamba nti, “Laba ŋŋumye ne njogera ne Mukama. Singa musangibwamu amakumi abiri.”
N’agamba nti, “Ku lw’amakumi abiri sijja kukizikiriza.”
3218:32 a Bal 6:39 b Yer 5:1Ate n’agamba nti, “Kale Mukama aleme okukwatibwa obusungu, nnaayongera okwogera, naye luno lwokka. Singa kkumi lye linaasangibwamu.”
N’addamu nti, “Ku lw’abo ekkumi sijja kukizikiriza.”
33Mukama bwe yamala okwogera ne Ibulayimu n’agenda, ne Ibulayimu n’addayo ewuwe.
