Job 17

1 ^aOmutima gwange gwennyise,
ennaku zange zisalibbwaako,
entaana enninze.
2 ^bDdala abansekerera bannetoolodde;
amaaso gange gabeekengera.

3 ^c“Ompe, Ayi Katonda akakalu k’onsaba.
Ani omulala ayinza okunneeyimirira?
4Ozibye emitima gyabwe obutategeera;
noolwekyo toobakkirize kuwangula.
5 ^dOmusajja avumirira mikwano gye olw’empeera
alireetera amaaso g’abaana be okuziba.

6 ^e“Katonda anfudde ekisekererwa eri buli omu,
anfudde buli omu gw’afujjira amalusu mu maaso.
7 ^fAmaaso gange gayimbadde olw’okunakuwala;
omubiri gwange gwonna kaakano guli nga kisiikirize.
8 ^gAbantu ab’amazima beesisiwala olwa kino;
atalina musango agolokokedde ku oyo atatya Katonda.
9 ^hNaye era abatuukirivu banaakwatanga amakubo gaabwe,
n’abo ab’emikono emirongoofu baneeyongeranga amaanyi.

10 ⁱ“Naye mukomeewo mwenna kaakano, mujje,
naye siraba muntu mugezi mu mmwe!
11 ^jEnnaku zange ziyise entegeka zange zoonoonese,
era bwe kityo n’okwegomba kw’omutima gwange.
12Abantu bano ekiro bakifuula emisana;
mu kizikiza mwennyini mwe bagambira nti, Ekitangaala kinaatera okujja.
13 ^kAmagombe bwe gaba nga ge maka mwe nnina essuubi,
bwe njala obuliri bwange mu kizikiza,
14 ^lne ŋŋamba amagombe nti, ‘Ggwe kitange,’
era n’eri envunyu nti, ‘Ggwe mmange,’ oba nti, ‘Ggwe mwannyinaze,’
15 ^mkale essuubi lyange liba ludda wa?
Ani ayinza okuliraba?
16 ⁿNalyo lirigenda eri enzigi z’emagombe
Oba tuligenda ffenna mu nfuufu?”
