OKaana awuuja oMusengwa
1 Awo oKaana nʼawuuja oMusengwa ngʼakoba ati,
“OMusengwa aizwirye omwoyo gwange eisangaalo;
oMusengwa ansuuciirye nakimo wʼamaani.
Nsekerera abalabe bange,
nsangaala olwʼokubba onnunwire.
2 “Mpaawo omutuukirirye ngʼoMusengwa,
mpaawo gondi ali ngaiye;
mpaawo ayezya okutukuuma ngʼoKibbumba waiswe.
3 “Mulekeraawo okwenyumiriza,
mukomye entumula eyʼokwepanka;
olwʼokubba oMusengwa niiye oKibbumba omumanyi,
era niiye alamula ebikole byʼabantu.”
4 “Obulaso obwʼabalwani abumenyere,
neye ababbaire abanafu ibo basunire maani.
5 Abo abaalyanga ni baikuta, atyanu bapakasa-bupakasi ekyokulya,
neye ababbaire abanzalwa, tibakaali badamba ekyokulya.
Eyabbaire abula omwana abyaire musanvu,
neye odi eyabyaire abangi, tasigairye kadi moiza.”
6 “OMusengwa aita era airyawo obwomi;
aserengetya e magombe, era nʼazuukiza.
7 OMusengwa adoobesya, era agaigawalya;
Aica era agulumalya.
8 Asetula abadoobi nʼabatoola omu nkungu
era asetula abadamba nʼabatoola oku kibbomboizi;
abatyamisya aamo nʼabakungu,
nʼabateeka omu bifo ebyʼekitiisya.”
“Ekyo kityo olwʼokubba emisingi gyʼekyalo gya Musengwa;
era okwo ku yateekere ekyalo.
9 Alungamya ebigere byʼabo abamwesiga,
neye ababbibabbi yalibaita ni baserengeta e magombe.”
“Omuntu tawangula lwa maanige;
10 abalabe ba Musengwa babasusungula.
Ababbwatukiraku ngʼasinzirira omwigulu;
oMusengwa yaliramula ekyalo kyonakyona.”
“Yaliwa amaani, oyo oguyalondere okubba okabaka
era nʼawa oyo amaani amabitiriri, oguyasukireku amafuta.”
11 Awo Erukaana nʼakanga e wuwe e Laama nʼoKaana, neye omwana oSamwiri nʼasigala omu Siiro ngʼaweererya oMusengwa, ansi wa kabona Eri.
Abataane bʼEri
12 Abataane bʼEri babbaire bantu ababbibabbi, nga tibatya oMusengwa.
13 Era abataanebe abo nago abakabona, engeri egibabityangamu abantu yabbaire eti: Omuntu oweyaawangayo esadaaka, omuweererya wa kabona nago ngʼayaba ngʼenyama ekaali etokota, ngʼakwaite oguwuuma ogunene ogwʼamaino amasatu,
14 nʼaguduupa omu kalaayi ooba bbinika ooba seefuliya ooba nsaka esumba. Awo byonabyona oguwuuma ebigwatoolangayo, nga bibba bya kabona. Batyo webabityanga nabuli Mwisirairi eyayabanga e Siiro okuwaayo esadaaka.
15 Era baabbanga bakaali okwoca amasavu, omuweererya wa kabona nago nʼayaba nʼakoba omusaiza awaayo esadaaka ati, “Ompe enyama eyʼokwocerya okabona, olwʼokubba tiyaikirirye enyama ensumbe egimwamuwa, wazira embisi.”
16 Omuntu oweyamwirangamu ati, “Oleke basooke booce amasavu, kaisi otwale enyama obuzito obwotaka,” omuweererya ngʼamwiramu ati, “Bbe, oteekwa kugimpa saawa enu, owewagaana njaba kugitwala na mpaka.”
17 Ekibbikibbi kyʼabaisuka abo ni kibba kinene ino omumaiso ga Musengwa, olwʼokubba abantu abo tibatwalanga ekyo ekibawaayo eeri oMusengwa ngʼekintu ekikulu.
OSamwiri ngʼali e Siiro
18 Neye oSamwiri nʼatandiika ngʼakaali mwana mutomuto okuweereryanga omumaiso ga Musengwa, ngʼazwaire eitaawo eryʼobwakabona eribakolere omu lugoye lwa lineni.
19 Nabuli mwanka omaaye nʼamukoleranga akaganduula nʼamutwalira, oweyaniinaniinanga aamo nʼoibaaye okwaba e Siiro okuwaayo esadaaka eya buli mwanka.
20 Eri nʼasabiranga Erukaana nʼomukaliwe enkabi ati, “OMusengwa akwongere abaana omu mukali onu, okwira omu kifo kyʼoyo oguyawaireyo eeri oMusengwa.” Ebyo owebyawanga, bakanganga e ika e waabwe.
21 Awo oMusengwa nʼawa oKaana enkabi, nʼabyala abaana abaisuka basatu, nʼabaala babiri. Ngʼebyo biri awo, omwana oSamwiri nʼakulira omu Weema eya Musengwa.
Eri nʼabataanebe
22 Atyanu Eri yabbaire akairiire ino, era nʼawuliranga byonabyona abataanebe ebibakolanga aBaisirairi bonabona, nʼengeri egibayendanga oku bakali abaweereryanga oku mulyango gwʼeWeema eyʼoKusisinkanirangamu oMusengwa.
23 Kale nʼabakoba ati, “Lwaki mukola ebintu ebityo? Abantu bonabona bankobera ebikole byanywe ebibbibibbi.
24 Bbe, baana bange, ebimpulira, ebiri kwebityangana omu bantu ba Musengwa tibisa.
25 Omuntu owaasobya oku muntu omwinaye, oKibbumba ayinza okumuwozererya. Neye omuntu owaasobya oku Musengwa, naani eyalimuwozererya?” Neye olwʼokubba oMusengwa yabbaire asalirewo okubaita, tibawulisisirye ebibono bya itewaabwe.
26 Ebyo nga biri awo, omwana oSamwiri ni yeeyongeranga okukula era nga mukoda eeri oKibbumba nʼeeri abantu.
Obunaabbi bwʼekibonerezo oku nyumba yʼEri
27 Awo onaabbi nʼayaba egiri Eri, nʼamukoba ati, “OMusengwa akoba ati, ‘Neeragire eeri abazeizabo owebabbeereire omu Misiri omu bufugi bwa Falaawo.
28 Nʼabalondere omu bika byonabyona ebya Isirairi, ibo okubba bakabona bange, okuniinaniinanga okwaba oku kyoto kyange okuduunyirya obubbaani nʼokuzwalanga eitaawo eryʼobwakabona nga bali omumaiso gange. Era ni mmbawa nʼomugabo oku sadaaka gyonagyona aBaisirairi egibawaayo nga bagyoca yonayona.
29 Lwaki mujerega esadaaka yange nʼebibawaayo ebinalagiire nti babiretenge omu nyumba yange? Lwaki owa abataanebo ekitiisya okukiraku ekimumpa, ni mweiryangaku ebitundu ebikira okubba ebyʼamasavu ku buli abantu bange aBaisirairi ebibawaayo egyendi?’ ”
30 “Nʼolwekyo oMusengwa iye oKibbumba wa Isirairi akoba ati, ‘Nabbaire nsuubizire nti abʼenyumbayo, nʼabʼenyumba ya zeizawo Alooni, bampeereryenge emirembe gyonagyona. Neye atyanu nze oMusengwa nkoba nti, ekyo nkikomerye, olwʼokubba abampa ekitiisya, zena binaawanga, nʼabo abannyoomanga, tibababalengemu akabuntu.
31 Aale mubone eenu, ekiseera kiiza owenalimalirawo abavuvuka bonabona abʼomu nyumbayo, nʼomu nyumba ya zeizawo, tiwalibbaawo akula nʼakairira omu bʼenyumbayo.
32 Olwo waligongera nʼonakuwala olwʼokubona enkabi eginalifukumula oku Baisirairi abandi, neye omu bʼolulyolwo timwabbengemu eyakulanga nʼakairiira.
33 Neye omuntu owʼomu nyumbayo, ogunalirekawo okuweereryanga oku kyoto kyange, yalisigalawo kubakunja mangi, nʼokunakuwalya myoyo gyanywe. Nʼabaana bonabona abʼeibyaireryo, bafeeranga mu mavuvuka.’ ”
34 “ ‘Ekyalituuka oku bataanebo ababiri oKofuni nʼoFenekansi, kyalibba kamanyiciryo egyoli; bombi balifa oku lunaku lumo.
35 Nalyeteekerawo okabona omwesigwa eyakolanga ebyʼomu mwoyo gwange nʼebyʼomu biseego byange. Nalimuwa eibyaire omwazwangamu abakabona abaweereryanga emirembe gyonagyona oyo ogunasukireku amafuta.
36 Era ekiseera kyalituuka, nabuli eyalibba asigairewo oku bʼomu nyumbayo, yalyaba okwegudyera okabona oyo okumusabaku empiiya nʼebyokulya, ngʼamwegairira, okumuganya abbeerengeku abakabona omu mirimo gyabwe, ayezye okusunanga ekyokulya.’ ”
