< Ezekiel 47 >

1 Then the man took me back to the entrance to the temple, and there was water flowing out from under the temple threshold of the house toward the east—for the front of the temple faced east—and the water was flowing down the south side of the temple, to the right of the altar.
Awo omusajja n’ankomyawo ku mulyango ogwa yeekaalu, ne ndaba amazzi nga gava wansi w’omulyango gwa yeekaalu ku luuyi olw’ebuvanjuba kubanga yeekaalu yali etunudde ku luuyi olw’ebuvanjuba. Amazzi gaali gakulukuta nga gava wansi ku luuyi olwa ddyo olwa yeekaalu, ku luuyi olw’Obukiikaddyo obw’ekyoto.
2 So he brought me out through the northern gate and led around to the gate facing east, and there the water was flowing from this gate on its south side.
N’anfulumiza mu mulyango gw’Obukiikakkono, n’ankulembera n’anneetoolooza ebweru eri oluggi olw’ebweru olutunuulidde Ebuvanjuba, era laba amazzi gaali gakulukuta okuva ku luuyi olw’Obukiikaddyo.
3 As the man was going toward the east, there was a measuring line in his hand; he measured off one thousand cubits and brought me through the water to ankle-deep water.
Awo omusajja eyalina olupimo mu mukono gwe, n’alaga ku luuyi olw’ebuvanjuba yapima mita ebikumi bina mu ataano, n’alyoka ampisa mu mazzi, agaali gakoma mu bukongovvule.
4 Then he measured one thousand cubits again and brought me through the water to knee-deep water; and he measured another thousand cubits and brought me to hip-deep water.
N’apima mita endala ebikumi bina mu ataano, n’ampisa mu mazzi agaali gankoma mu maviivi. N’apima mita endala ebikumi bina mu ataano, n’ampisa mu mazzi agaali gankoma mu kiwato.
5 Next he measured off another thousand cubits, but it was a river that I could not cross through because the water had risen and was deep enough to swim in—it was a river that could not be crossed.
N’apima mita endala ebikumi bina mu ataano, naye kati amazzi gaali gafuuse mugga gwe nnali sisobola kusomoka kubanga amazzi gaali gatumbidde era nga mangi agawugibwamu obuwugirwa, omugga ogwali gutasoboka kusomokebwa.
6 The man said to me, “Son of man, do you see this?” and he brought me out and had me walk back along the riverbank.
N’ambuuza nti, “Omwana w’omuntu, kino okiraba?” N’anzizaayo ku lubalama lw’omugga.
7 As I walked back, there the riverbank had many trees on this side and also the other side.
Awo bwe natuuka eyo, laba ne ndaba ku lubalama lw’omugga emiti mingi nnyo eruuyi n’eruuyi w’omugga.
8 The man said to me, “This water is going out to the eastern territory and down to the Arabah; this water flows into the Salt Sea and will make it fresh.
N’aŋŋamba nti, “Amazzi gano gakulukuta gadda mu kitundu eky’ensi eky’Ebuvanjuba, ne gaserengeta mu ddungu, ne gayingira mu Nnyanja. Omugga bwe guyiwa mu Nnyanja amazzi ne galongooka.
9 It will be that every living creature that swarms will live where the water goes; there will be many fish, for these waters flow there. It will make the salt water fresh. Everything will live wherever the river goes.
Buli kiramu tekirifa yonna omugga gye guyita, era mulibeeramu ebyennyanja bingi nnyo, kubanga amazzi gano agakulukutirayo gafuula amazzi ag’omu Nnyanja ey’Omunnyo okuba amalungi, noolwekyo omugga gye guyita, ebintu byonna binaabeeranga biramu.
10 Then it will happen that fishermen of En Gedi will stand by the water, and there will be a place to dry out the fishing nets by En Eglaim. There will be many kinds of fish in the Salt Sea, like the fish in the Great Sea for their abundance.
Abavubi banaayimiriranga ku lubalama lwagwo okuva mu Engedi okutuuka e Negalayimu; walibeerayo ebifo ebyokwanikamu obutimba. Buli byannyanja biriba mu bika byabyo, era nga bingi nnyo nnyini ng’ebyennyanja eby’omu Nnyanja Ennene, ye Meditereeniya.
11 But the Salt Sea's swamps and marshes will not be made fresh; they will be for providing salt.
Naye ebifo eby’ettosi n’ebisaalu tebirilongooka, birisigala nga bya munnyo.
12 Beside this river on its banks, on both sides, all kinds of trees will grow that bear food. Their leaves will not wither and their fruit will never fail to grow. Each month the trees will bear fruit, because the water from the sanctuary flows to them. Their fruit will be for food, and their leaves will be for healing.
Emiti egy’ebibala ebya buli kika girimera eruuyi n’eruuyi w’omugga, n’ebikoola byagyo tebiriwotoka era tegiibulengako bibala. Buli mwezi ginaabeerangako ebibala, kubanga amazzi gaagyo agava mu Watukuvu gagifukirira. Ebibala byagyo biriba mmere, n’ebikoola byagyo biriba ddagala eriwonya.”
13 The Lord Yahweh says this: This will be the way that you divide the land up for the twelve tribes of Israel: Joseph will have two portions.
Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda nti, “Bwe muti bwe munaasala ensalo nga mugabanya ensi mu bika bya Isirayiri ekkumi n’ebibiri, ng’ekika kya Yusufu kiweebwa emigabo ebiri.
14 You are to divide equally what I lifted up my hand and swore to give to your fathers. This land will come to you as an inheritance.
Muligibagabanyizaamu mu bwenkanya, kubanga nagirayirira bajjajjammwe, era ettaka liriba mugabo gwabwe.
15 This will be the boundary of the land on the north side from the Great Sea by way of Hethlon, and then to Zedad.
“Ensalo z’ensi eyo ziriba bwe ziti: “Ku luuyi olw’Obukiikakkono, eriva ku Nnyanja Ennene ku mabbali g’ekkubo ery’e Kesulooni okutuuka awayingirirwa e Kamasi, ng’ogenda e Zedadi,
16 Then the boundary will go to Berothah, to Sibraim, which is between Damascus and Hamath, and then to Hazer Hattikon, which is beside the boundary of Hauran.
Berosa, Sibulayimu ekiri ku nsalo wakati w’e Ddamasiko n’e Kamasi, okutuukira ddala e Kazerukattikoni ekiri ku nsalo y’e Kawulaani.
17 So the boundary will go from the sea to Hazar Enan on the border with Damascus and Hamath to the north. This will be the north side.
Era ensalo eriva ku nnyanja okutuuka e Kazalenooni ekiri ku nsalo y’e Ddamasiko ey’Obukiikakkono, okuliraana Kamasi mu Bukiikakkono. Era eyo y’eriba ensalo ey’Obukiikakkono.
18 On the east side the boundary will run between Hauran and Damascus, along the Jordan River between Gilead and the land of Israel. You will measure from the border to the eastern sea. This will be the eastern border.
Ku luuyi olw’ebuvanjuba ensalo eriva e Kazalenooni ekiri wakati wa Kawulaani ne Ddamasiko ku lubalama lwa Yoludaani wakati wa Gireyaadi n’ensi ya Isirayiri era n’okutuuka ku nnyanja ey’Ebuvanjuba. Eyo y’eriba ensalo ey’Ebuvanjuba.
19 Then on the south side the boundary will run from Tamar as far as the waters of Meribah Kadesh, then along the brook of Egypt to the Great Sea. This will be the boundary on the south side.
Ku luuyi olw’Obukiikaddyo eriva e Tamali okutuukira ddala ku mazzi ag’e Meribosukadesi, ne ku kagga ak’e Misiri okutuuka ku Nnyanja Ennene. Eyo y’eriba ensalo ey’Obukiikaddyo.
20 Then the boundary on the west side will be the Great Sea to a point opposite Lebo Hamath. This will be the west side.
Ku luuyi olw’ebugwanjuba, Ennyanja Ennene, ye Meditereeniya y’eriba ensalo okutuuka awayolekera awayingirirwa e Kamasi, era eyo y’eriba ensalo ey’Ebugwanjuba.
21 In this way you will divide this land for yourselves, for the tribes of Israel.
“Muligabana ensi eno ng’ebika bya Isirayiri bwe biri.
22 So you will distribute the inheritances for yourselves and for the foreigners in your midst, those who have given birth to children in your midst and who are, with you, like the native born people of Israel. You will cast lots for inheritances among the tribes of Israel.
Muligigabana ng’omugabo wakati wammwe ne bannaggwanga abali nammwe, abazaalidde abaana mu mmwe. Mulibatwala ng’abazaaliranwa ba Isirayiri, era baligabana omugabo mu bika bya Isirayiri.
23 Then it will happen that the foreigner will be with the tribe among whom he is living. You must give him an inheritance—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.”
Era mu buli kika munnaggwanga mw’anaabeeranga, eyo gye mulimuwa omugabo gwe,” bw’ayogera Mukama Katonda.
