Omusango n’Obulokozi
65 (A)Mukama n’alyoka agamba nti,
“Nze nnali mwetegefu okweyoleka eri abo abaali tebannoonya.
Neeraga abo abaali tebannoonya.
Eri eggwanga eryali litakoowoola linnya lyange nneyoleka gye bali ng’aŋŋamba nti, ‘Ndi wano, Ndi wano.’
2 (B)Nagolola emikono gyange olunaku lwonna okutuusa obudde okuziba
eri abantu abeewagguzze,
abatambulira mu makubo amabi
abagoberera entegeka ezaabwe ku bwabwe;
3 (C)abantu bulijjo
abansomooza mu maaso gange gennyini
nga bawaayo ebiweebwayo mu nnimiro
ne bookera n’ebiweebwayo ku byoto eby’amatoffaali;
4 (D)abatuula mu malaalo
ne bamalako ekiro kyonna mu bifo ebyekusifu,
abalya ennyama y’embizzi,
era n’amaseffuliya gaabwe gajjudde ennyama etali nnongoofu.
5 (E)Bagamba nti, ‘Beera wala, tojja kumpi nange,
kubanga ndi mutuukirivu nnyo ggwe okunsaanira!’
Abantu bwe batyo mukka mu nnyindo zange,
omuliro ogwaka olunaku lwonna.
6 (F)“Laba kiwandiikiddwa mu maaso gange.
Sijja kusirika naye nzija kusasula mu bujjuvu,
nzija kubasasula bibatuukireko ddala;
7 (G)olw’ebibi byammwe byonna era n’olw’ebibi bya bakitammwe,”
bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
“Kubanga baayokera ebiweebwayo byabwe ku lusozi
era ne bannyoomera ku busozi,
ndibalira mu mikono gyabwe empeera yennyini enzijuvu
ey’ebikolwa byabwe eby’edda.”
8 Bw’atyo bw’ayogera Mukama:
“Ng’omubisi bwe gusangibwa mu kirimba ky’emizabbibu
abantu ne bagamba nti, ‘Togwonoona,
gukyalimu akalungi,’
bwe ntyo bwe ndikibakolera olw’obulungi bw’abaweereza bange.
Sijja kubasaanyaawo bonna.
9 (H)Ndiggya ezzadde okuva mu Yakobo
era ne mu Yuda abo abalitwala ensozi zange;
abantu bange abalonde balizigabana,
era eyo abaweereza bange gye balibeera.
10 (I)Awo Saloni kiribeera ddundiro lya bisibo,
era n’ekiwonvu kya Akoli kifo kya nte we zigalamira
olw’abantu bange abannoonya.
11 (J)“Naye mmwe abava ku Mukama
ne mwerabira olusozi lwange olutukuvu
ne muteekerateekera emmeeza katonda wammwe, Mukisa,
ne mujuliza katonda wammwe, Kusalawo, ebikopo eby’envinnyo,
12 (K)ndibawaayo eri ekitala
era mwenna mukutaamirire musalibwe,
kubanga nabayita naye temwayitaba,
nayogera naye temwampuliriza.
Mwakola ebitasaana
era ne musalawo okukola ebitansanyusa.”
13 (L)Noolwekyo kino Mukama Ayinzabyonna ky’agamba:
“Abaweereza bange bajja kulya,
naye mmwe mujja kulumwa enjala,
abaweereza bange bajja kunywa,
naye mmwe mulumwe ennyonta;
abaweereza bange bajja kujaguza,
naye mmwe mukwatibwe ensonyi.
14 (M)Abaweereza bange bajja kuyimba
olw’essanyu erinaaba mu mitima gyabwe,
naye mmwe muli ba kukaaba olw’okulumwa okunaabeera mu mitima gyammwe
era mukaabe olw’okulumwa emyoyo.
15 (N)Ekikolimo kiryoke kibagwire,
Nze Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye mbatte
amannya gammwe geerabirwe,
naye mpe amannya amaggya abo abaŋŋondera.
16 (O)Kiryoke kibeere nti buli muntu ananoonya okufuna omukisa
anaagunoonya kuva eri Katonda Ow’amazima
buli anaalayiranga mu ggwanga
anaalayiranga Katonda ow’amazima.
Kubanga emitawaana egyayita gya kwerabirwa
gikwekebwe okuva mu maaso gange.
Eggulu Epya n’Ensi Empya
17 (P)“Laba nditonda eggulu eriggya
n’ensi empya.
Ebintu eby’edda tebijja kujjukirwa
wadde okulowoozebwako mu mutima.
18 (Q)Naye musanyukire ekyo kye ntonda
mujaguze emirembe n’emirembe,
kubanga nditonda Yerusaalemi okuba essanyu
n’abantu baamu okuba okujaguza.
19 (R)Ndijaguza olwa Yerusaalemi
era nsanyukire abantu bange;
amaloboozi ag’okukaaba
tegaliddayo kuwulirwamu.
20 (S)“Teriddayo kuba mu kyo mwana muwere
anaaberawo ennaku obunaku,
oba omusajja omukulu ataamalengayo myaka gye;
oyo alifiira ku myaka ekikumi
alitwalibwa ng’omuvubuka obuvubuka.
Oyo atalituusa kikumi
abalibwe ng’eyakolimirwa.
21 (T)Balizimba ennyumba bazisulemu,
balisimba emizabbibu balye ebibala byagyo.
22 (U)Tebalizimba nnyumba ate omulala agisulemu,
tebalisimba ate omulala abirye.
Kubanga emyaka gy’emiti nga bwe giba
bwe gityo bwe giribeera emyaka gy’abantu bange.
Abalonde bange balirwawo nga bawoomerwa
emirimu gy’emikono gyabwe.
23 (V)Tebalikolera bwereere
oba okuzaala abaana ab’okugwa mu katyabaga,
kubanga balibeera abantu abaweebwa Mukama Katonda omukisa,
bo awamu n’ab’enda yaabwe.
24 (W)Nga tebanakoowoola ndibaddamu,
nga bakyayogera bati mbaddemu.
25 (X)Omusege n’omwana gw’endiga biriire wamu,
era empologoma erye omuddo ng’ennume,
era ettaka libeere emmere y’omusota.
Tewaliba kulumya
wadde kuzikiriza ku lusozi lwange olutukuvu,”
bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
Isaiah 65
King James Version
Isaiah 65
King James Version
65 I am sought of them that asked not for me; I am found of them that sought me not: I said, Behold me, behold me, unto a nation that was not called by my name.
2 I have spread out my hands all the day unto a rebellious people, which walketh in a way that was not good, after their own thoughts;
3 A people that provoketh me to anger continually to my face; that sacrificeth in gardens, and burneth incense upon altars of brick;
4 Which remain among the graves, and lodge in the monuments, which eat swine's flesh, and broth of abominable things is in their vessels;
5 Which say, Stand by thyself, come not near to me; for I am holier than thou. These are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burneth all the day.
6 Behold, it is written before me: I will not keep silence, but will recompense, even recompense into their bosom,
7 Your iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, saith the Lord, which have burned incense upon the mountains, and blasphemed me upon the hills: therefore will I measure their former work into their bosom.
8 Thus saith the Lord, As the new wine is found in the cluster, and one saith, Destroy it not; for a blessing is in it: so will I do for my servants' sakes, that I may not destroy them all.
9 And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains: and mine elect shall inherit it, and my servants shall dwell there.
10 And Sharon shall be a fold of flocks, and the valley of Achor a place for the herds to lie down in, for my people that have sought me.
11 But ye are they that forsake the Lord, that forget my holy mountain, that prepare a table for that troop, and that furnish the drink offering unto that number.
12 Therefore will I number you to the sword, and ye shall all bow down to the slaughter: because when I called, ye did not answer; when I spake, ye did not hear; but did evil before mine eyes, and did choose that wherein I delighted not.
13 Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Behold, my servants shall eat, but ye shall be hungry: behold, my servants shall drink, but ye shall be thirsty: behold, my servants shall rejoice, but ye shall be ashamed:
14 Behold, my servants shall sing for joy of heart, but ye shall cry for sorrow of heart, and shall howl for vexation of spirit.
15 And ye shall leave your name for a curse unto my chosen: for the Lord God shall slay thee, and call his servants by another name:
16 That he who blesseth himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God of truth; and he that sweareth in the earth shall swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hid from mine eyes.
17 For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.
18 But be ye glad and rejoice for ever in that which I create: for, behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy.
19 And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people: and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying.
20 There shall be no more thence an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not filled his days: for the child shall die an hundred years old; but the sinner being an hundred years old shall be accursed.
21 And they shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them.
22 They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree are the days of my people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands.
23 They shall not labour in vain, nor bring forth for trouble; for they are the seed of the blessed of the Lord, and their offspring with them.
24 And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.
25 The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the bullock: and dust shall be the serpent's meat. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain, saith the Lord.

Judgment and Salvation
65 “I revealed myself to those who did not ask for me;
I was found by those who did not seek me.(A)
To a nation(B) that did not call on my name,(C)
I said, ‘Here am I, here am I.’
2 All day long I have held out my hands
to an obstinate people,(D)
who walk in ways not good,
pursuing their own imaginations(E)—
3 a people who continually provoke me
to my very face,(F)
offering sacrifices in gardens(G)
and burning incense(H) on altars of brick;
4 who sit among the graves(I)
and spend their nights keeping secret vigil;
who eat the flesh of pigs,(J)
and whose pots hold broth of impure meat;
5 who say, ‘Keep away; don’t come near me,
for I am too sacred(K) for you!’
Such people are smoke(L) in my nostrils,
a fire that keeps burning all day.
6 “See, it stands written before me:
I will not keep silent(M) but will pay back(N) in full;
I will pay it back into their laps(O)—
7 both your sins(P) and the sins of your ancestors,”(Q)
says the Lord.
“Because they burned sacrifices on the mountains
and defied me on the hills,(R)
I will measure into their laps
the full payment(S) for their former deeds.”
8 This is what the Lord says:
“As when juice is still found in a cluster of grapes(T)
and people say, ‘Don’t destroy it,
there is still a blessing in it,’
so will I do in behalf of my servants;(U)
I will not destroy them all.
9 I will bring forth descendants(V) from Jacob,
and from Judah those who will possess(W) my mountains;
my chosen(X) people will inherit them,
and there will my servants live.(Y)
10 Sharon(Z) will become a pasture for flocks,(AA)
and the Valley of Achor(AB) a resting place for herds,
for my people who seek(AC) me.
11 “But as for you who forsake(AD) the Lord
and forget my holy mountain,(AE)
who spread a table for Fortune
and fill bowls of mixed wine(AF) for Destiny,
12 I will destine you for the sword,(AG)
and all of you will fall in the slaughter;(AH)
for I called but you did not answer,(AI)
I spoke but you did not listen.(AJ)
You did evil in my sight
and chose what displeases me.”(AK)
13 Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says:
“My servants will eat,(AL)
but you will go hungry;(AM)
my servants will drink,(AN)
but you will go thirsty;(AO)
my servants will rejoice,(AP)
but you will be put to shame.(AQ)
14 My servants will sing(AR)
out of the joy of their hearts,
but you will cry out(AS)
from anguish of heart
and wail in brokenness of spirit.
15 You will leave your name
for my chosen ones to use in their curses;(AT)
the Sovereign Lord will put you to death,
but to his servants he will give another name.(AU)
16 Whoever invokes a blessing(AV) in the land
will do so by the one true God;(AW)
whoever takes an oath in the land
will swear(AX) by the one true God.
For the past troubles(AY) will be forgotten
and hidden from my eyes.
New Heavens and a New Earth
17 “See, I will create
new heavens and a new earth.(AZ)
The former things will not be remembered,(BA)
nor will they come to mind.
18 But be glad and rejoice(BB) forever
in what I will create,
for I will create Jerusalem(BC) to be a delight
and its people a joy.
19 I will rejoice(BD) over Jerusalem
and take delight(BE) in my people;
the sound of weeping and of crying(BF)
will be heard in it no more.
20 “Never again will there be in it
an infant(BG) who lives but a few days,
or an old man who does not live out his years;(BH)
the one who dies at a hundred
will be thought a mere child;
the one who fails to reach[a] a hundred
will be considered accursed.
21 They will build houses(BI) and dwell in them;
they will plant vineyards and eat their fruit.(BJ)
22 No longer will they build houses and others live in them,(BK)
or plant and others eat.
For as the days of a tree,(BL)
so will be the days(BM) of my people;
my chosen(BN) ones will long enjoy
the work of their hands.
23 They will not labor in vain,(BO)
nor will they bear children doomed to misfortune;(BP)
for they will be a people blessed(BQ) by the Lord,
they and their descendants(BR) with them.
24 Before they call(BS) I will answer;(BT)
while they are still speaking(BU) I will hear.
25 The wolf and the lamb(BV) will feed together,
and the lion will eat straw like the ox,(BW)
and dust will be the serpent’s(BX) food.
They will neither harm nor destroy
on all my holy mountain,”(BY)
says the Lord.
