3 Mwenyumiririze mu linnya lye ettukuvu.+
Omutima gw’abo abanoonya Yakuwa ka gusanyuke.+
4 Munoonye Yakuwa+ n’amaanyi ge.
Mumunoonyenga bulijjo.
5 Mujjukire ebikolwa eby’ekitalo bye yakola,
Ebyamagero bye n’emisango gye yalangirira,+
6 Mmwe ezzadde lya* Ibulayimu omuweereza we,+
Mmwe abaana ba Yakobo, abalonde be.+
7 Ye Yakuwa Katonda waffe.+
Alamula ensi yonna.+
8 Ajjukira endagaano ye emirembe n’emirembe,+
Ajjukira kye yasuubiza,* okutuusa emirembe olukumi,+
9 Endagaano gye yakola ne Ibulayimu,+
N’ekirayiro kye yalayirira Isaaka,+
10 Ekirayiro kye yanyweza kibeere ng’etteeka eri Yakobo;
Kibeere ng’endagaano ey’olubeerera eri Isirayiri,
11 Ng’agamba nti, “Ndikuwa ensi ya Kanani+
Okuba omugabo gw’obusika bwo.”+
13 Baatambulanga okuva mu ggwanga erimu okudda mu ddala,
N’okuva mu bwakabaka obumu okudda mu bulala.+
14 Teyakkiriza muntu n’omu kubabonyaabonya,+
Naye yanenya bakabaka ku lwabwe,+
15 Ng’agamba nti, “Temukwata ku bantu bange abaafukibwako amafuta,
Era bannabbi bange temubakolako kabi.”+
17 Yatuma omuntu n’abasookayo
Eyatundibwa okuba omuddu, ng’oyo ye Yusufu.+
18 Ebigere bye baabisiba enjegere,*+
Era baamusiba ebyuma mu bulago
19 Okutuusa kye yayogera lwe kyatuukirira,+
Ekigambo kya Yakuwa kye kyamulongoosa.
20 Kabaka yalagira asumululwe,+
Omufuzi w’amawanga yamusumulula.
21 Yamuwa obukulu ku nnyumba ye
Ne ku bintu bye byonna,+
22 Okuba n’obuyinza ku baami* be nga bw’ayagala
N’okuwa abantu be abakadde amagezi.+
23 Awo Isirayiri n’agenda e Misiri,+
Yakobo n’abeera mugwira mu nsi ya Kaamu.
25 Yaleetera emitima gy’abalabe abo okukyuka ne bakyawa abantu be,
Ne basalira abaweereza be enkwe.+
27 Baakola obubonero bwe mu Bamisiri,
Ebyamagero bye mu nsi ya Kaamu.+
28 Yasindika ekizikiza ensi n’ekwata enzikiza;+
Tebaajeemera bigambo bye.
29 Amazzi gaabwe yagafuula omusaayi,
N’atta ebyennyanja byabwe.+
30 Ensi yaabwe yajjula ebikere,+
Ne bituuka ne mu bisenge bya kabaka.
31 Yalagira kawawa okubalumba,
N’obutugu mu bitundu byabwe byonna.+
33 Yakuba emizabbibu gyabwe n’emitiini gyabwe
N’amenyaamenya emiti gy’omu nsi yaabwe.
34 Yagamba enzige zibalumbe,
Enzige ento ezitabalika.+
35 Zaalya ebimera byonna mu nsi eyo;
Zaalya ebibala by’ettaka.
36 Awo n’atta ababereberye bonna mu nsi yaabwe,+
Abaggulanda baabwe.
37 Yaggyayo abantu be nga balina ffeeza ne zzaabu;+
Mu bika byabwe temwali muntu n’omu munafu.
38 Misiri yasanyuka nga bavuddeyo,
Kubanga baali bafunye entiisa ya Isirayiri.+
42 Kubanga yajjukira ebintu ebitukuvu bye yali yasuubiza Ibulayimu omuweereza we.+
43 Yaggyayo abantu be nga bajaganya,+
Abalonde be nga boogerera waggulu n’essanyu.
44 Yabawa ensi z’amawanga;+
Baasikira ebyo amawanga amalala bye gaateganira,+
45 Yakola bw’atyo basobole okukwata ebiragiro bye,+
Era bakwatenga amateeka ge.
Mutendereze Ya!*
