1. 1LUGBino Mukama Katonda bye yandaga. Yali ateekateeka ebibinja by’enzige okusaanyaawo ebirime ebyalimwanga, nga baakakungula olukungula olusooka ssinziggu, kabaka kw’afuna omusolo.BSBBSB: This is what the Lord GOD showed me: He was preparing swarms of locusts just after the king’s harvest, as the late spring crop was coming up.
2. 2LUGEnzige bwe zaalya buli kantu akaali mu nnimiro akalamu, ne nkaaba nti, “Mukama Katonda, sonyiwa abantu bo nkwegayiridde. Yakobo aliwona atya? Nga mutono nnyo.”BSBBSB: And when the locusts had eaten every green plant in the land, I said, “Lord GOD, please forgive! How will Jacob survive, since he is so small?”
3. 3LUGMukama bwe yawulira okukaaba kuno n’akyusa ekirowoozo kye. N’agamba nti, “Ekyo tekiribaawo.”BSBBSB: So the LORD relented from this plan. “It will not happen,” He said.
4. 4LUGBino Mukama bye yayongera okundaga. Yali ategeka okubonereza abantu n’omuliro. Gwalya ennyanja eyali wansi w’ensi ne gumalawo n’olukalu.BSBBSB: This is what the Lord GOD showed me: The Lord GOD was calling for judgment by fire. It consumed the great deep and devoured the land.
5. 5LUGNe nkaaba nti, “Ayi Mukama Katonda nkwegayiridde osonyiwe abantu bo! Yakobo anaasobola atya okusigalawo? Nga mutono nnyo!”BSBBSB: Then I said, “Lord GOD, please stop! How will Jacob survive, since he is so small?”
6. 6LUGAwo Mukama bwe yawulira okukaaba kuno, n’akyusa ekirowoozo kye. Era n’agamba nti, “Era n’ekyo tekijja kubeerawo.”BSBBSB: So the LORD relented from this plan. “It will not happen either,” said the Lord GOD.
7. 7LUGAte Mukama n’andaga okwolesebwa okulala. Ne ndaba Mukama ng’ayimiridde ku bbugwe azimbiddwa obulungi nga yatereera era nga Mukama akutte bbirigi mu mukono gwe.BSBBSB: This is what He showed me: Behold, the Lord was standing by a wall true to plumb, with a plumb line in His hand.
8. 8LUGMukama n’ambuuza nti, “Amosi, kiki ky’olaba?” Ne nziramu nti, “Ndaba bbirigi.” Mukama n’alyoka aŋŋamba nti, “Laba nteese bbirigi wakati mu bantu bange Isirayiri. Sijja kuddayo kukyusa kirowoozo kyange nate ku ky’okubabonereza.BSBBSB: “Amos, what do you see?” asked the LORD. “A plumb line,” I replied. “Behold,” said the Lord, “I am setting a plumb line among My people Israel; I will no longer spare them:
9. 9LUG“Ebifo ebigulumivu ebya Isaaka birizikirizibwa, n’ebifo bya Isirayiri ebitukuvu birifuuka matongo. N’ennyumba ya Yerobowaamu ndigirwanyisa n’ekitala.”BSBBSB: The high places of Isaac will be deserted, and the sanctuaries of Israel will be laid waste; and I will rise up against the house of Jeroboam with My sword.”
10. 10LUGAwo Amaziya kabona w’e Beseri n’aweereza kabaka wa Isirayiri, Yerobowaamu, obubaka ng’agamba nti, “Amosi agezaako okukulyamu olukwe wakati mu Isirayiri mwennyini. Ensi teyinza kugumira bigambo bye.”BSBBSB: Then Amaziah the priest of Bethel sent word to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, “Amos has conspired against you in the midst of the house of Israel. The land cannot bear all his words,
11. 11LUGBw’ati Amosi bw’ayogera nti, “ ‘Yerobowaamu alifa kitala, ne Isirayiri balitwalibwa mu buwaŋŋanguse bave mu nsi yaboobwe.’ ”BSBBSB: for this is what Amos has said: ‘Jeroboam will die by the sword, and Israel will surely go into exile, away from their homeland.’”
12. 12LUGAwo Amaziya n’alyoka alagira Amosi nti, “Vva wano ggwe omulabi. Ddayo mu nsi ya Yuda gy’oba oweera obunnabbi, ofunire eyo omusaala gwo.BSBBSB: And Amaziah said to Amos, “Go away, you seer! Flee to the land of Judah; earn your bread there and do your prophesying there.
13. 13LUGToweera wano bunnabbi nate e Beseri kubanga luno lubiri lwa kabaka era ssinzizo lya bwakabaka.”BSBBSB: But never prophesy at Bethel again, because it is the sanctuary of the king and the temple of the kingdom.”
14. 14LUGAmosi n’amuddamu nti, “Saali nnabbi oba omwana wa nnabbi nnali mulunzi wa ndiga era nga ndabirira miti emisukamooli.BSBBSB: “I was not a prophet,” Amos replied, “nor was I the son of a prophet; rather, I was a herdsman and a tender of sycamore-fig trees.
15. 15LUGNaye Mukama yanziggya eyo mu kulunda ekisibo n’aŋŋamba nti, ‘Genda owe obunnabbi abantu bange, Isirayiri.’ ”BSBBSB: But the LORD took me from following the flock and said to me, ‘Go, prophesy to My people Israel.’
16. 16LUGNoolwekyo ggwe wuliriza ekigambo kya Mukama. Ogamba nti, “ ‘Towa bunnabbi bunenya Isirayiri, era lekaraawo okubuulira ebikwata ku nnyumba ya Isaaka.’BSBBSB: Now, therefore, hear the word of the LORD. You say: ‘Do not prophesy against Israel; do not preach against the house of Isaac.’
17. 17LUG“Mukama kyava akuddamu nti, “ ‘Mukazi wo alifuuka malaaya mu kibuga era n’abaana bo aboobulenzi n’aboobuwala balifa ekitala. Ettaka lyo lirigabanyizibwamu ne liweebwa abalala naawe kennyini olifiira mu nsi ey’abakafiiri. Ekituufu kiri nti abantu ba Isirayiri balitwalibwa mu buwaŋŋanguse, ne baggyibwa mu nsi yaboobwe.’ ”BSBBSB: Therefore this is what the LORD says: ‘Your wife will become a prostitute in the city, and your sons and daughters will fall by the sword. Your land will be divided by a measuring line, and you yourself will die on pagan soil. And Israel will surely go into exile, away from their homeland.’”
