PRAISE be to God, Lord of the worlds! | Amatendo gonna amalungi ga Allah, Mukama w'ebitonde byonna. | 37 | 59 | 8 | 8 |
The compassionate, the merciful! | Omusaasizi ennyo, Ow'ekisa ekingi. | 32 | 34 | 4 | 4 |
King on the day of reckoning! | Mukama w'olunaku lw'okulamulirwako! | 29 | 35 | 6 | 3 |
Thee only do we worship, and to Thee do we cry for help. | Ggwe wekka Ggwe tusinza era Ggwe wekka Ggwe tusaba obuyambi. | 56 | 60 | 13 | 10 |
Guide Thou us on the straight path, | Tulung'amye mu kkubo eggolokofu, | 35 | 32 | 7 | 4 |
The path of those to whom Thou hast been gracious;-with whom thou art not angry, and who go not astray. | Ekkubo ery'abo be wawa ebyengera, eritali ly'abo abaasunguwalirwa, wadde abaabula. | 103 | 82 | 20 | 10 |

ELIF. LAM. MIM. | (Nze Allah Amanyi byonna.) Alif Lám Mim. | 15 | 40 | 3 | 7 |
No doubt is there about this Book: It is a guidance to the God-fearing, | Kino ky'Ekitabo ekituukirivu ekitaliimu kubuusabuusa kwonna, bwe bulung'amu eri abatya Allah, | 71 | 93 | 14 | 11 |
Who believe in the unseen, who observe prayer, and out of what we have bestowed on them, expend for God; | Abo abakkiriza n'ebitalabika era ne bajjumbira essaala era ne batoola ne kw'ebyo bye twabawa; | 104 | 93 | 20 | 14 |
And who believe in what hath been sent down to thee, and in what hath been sent down before thee, and full faith have they in the life to come: | N' abo abakkiriza ebyo ebyassibwa gy'oli n'ebyassibwa olubereberye lwo, n'ebyoluvannyuma bo babikakasa. | 143 | 103 | 30 | 12 |
These are guided by their Lord; and with these it shall be well. | Abo nno be bali ku bulung'amu obuva eri Mukama waabwe era abo be b'okuganyulwa. | 64 | 79 | 13 | 14 |
As to the infidels, alike is it to them whether thou warn them or warn them not–they will not believe: | Mazima abo abeerema ky'ekimu gye bali, bw'obalabula oba ne bw'otabalabula, si baakukkiriza. | 102 | 91 | 20 | 12 |
Their hearts and their ears hath God sealed up; and over their eyes is a covering. For them, a severe chastisement! | Allah yassa envumbo ku mitima gyabwe ne ku matu gaabwe. Ne ku maaso gaabwe kuliko ekibikka, era balifuna ekibonerezo ekisukkirivu. | 115 | 130 | 21 | 20 |
And some there are who say, "We believe in God, and in the latter day:" Yet are they not believers! | Era mu bantu mulimu abagamba nti: Tukkiriza Allah n' olunaku lw'enkomerero, so nga si bakkiriza. | 99 | 96 | 20 | 15 |
Fain would they deceive God and those who have believed; but they deceive themselves only, and know it not. | Mbu babuzaabuza Allah n' abo abakkiriza, naye tebabuzaabuza mulala wabula beebuza abuza bokka, naye tebategeera. | 107 | 112 | 19 | 15 |
Diseased are their hearts! And that disease hath God increased creased to them. Their's a sore chastisement, for that they treated their prophet as a liar! | Mu mitima gyabwe mulimu obulwadde, kale ne Allah yabongerako obulwadde; era balinayo n'ekibonerezo ekirumya olw'ebyo bye baalimbanga. | 155 | 133 | 26 | 17 |
And when it is said to them, "Cause not disorders in the earth:" they say, "Nay, rather do we set them right." | Era bwe bagambibwa nti: Temutabulatabula mu nsi, bagamba nti: Mazima ffe tuli baleesi ba mirembe. | 110 | 97 | 22 | 15 |
Is it not that they are themselves the authors of disorder? But they perceive it not! | Mwetegereze, ddala bo be batabuzitabuzi, naye tebategeera. | 85 | 58 | 16 | 7 |
And when it is said to them, "Believe as other men have believed;" they say, "Shall we believe as the fools have believed?" Is it not that they are themselves the fools? But they know it not! | Era bwe bagambibwa nti: Mukkirize ng'abantu abalala bwe bakkiriza, bagamba nti: Abaffe, tukkirize ng' abasiru bwe bakkiriza? Mwetegereze, ddala bo be basiru, naye tebamanyi. | 191 | 173 | 37 | 24 |
And when they meet the faithful they say, "We believe;" but when they are apart with their Satans they say, "Verily we hold with you, and at them we only mock." | Era bwe basisinkana n'abo abakkiriza, bagamba nti: Tukkiriza. Naye bwe baba bokka eri balukulwe baabwe, bagamba nti: Mazima tuli wamu nammwe; ddala ffe tuguyaaguya buguyaaguya. | 160 | 176 | 31 | 25 |
God shall mock at them, and keep them long in their rebellion, wandering in perplexity. | Allah alibabonereza olw'okuguyaaguya kwabwe era abaleka ne beeyongera mu bujeemu bwabwe, nga bawunaawuna. | 87 | 105 | 15 | 13 |
These are they who have purchased error at the price of guidance: but their traffic hath not been gainful, neither are they guided at all. | Abo nno be bo abaawaanyisa obubuze mu bulung'amu; naye obusuubuzi bwabwe tebwagobolola wadde tebaali balung'amu. | 138 | 112 | 25 | 15 |
They are like one who kindleth a fire, and when it hath thrown its light on all around him. . . . God taketh away their light and leaveth them in darkness–they cannot see!– | Embeera yaabwe ering'anga ey'oli eyakuma omuliro; kale bwe gwamulisa ebimwetoolodde, Allah n'ajjawo obutangaavu bwabwe n' abaleka mu kizikiza ekikwafu nga tebalaba. | 172 | 164 | 34 | 21 |
Deaf, dumb, blind: therefore they shall not retrace their steps from error! | Bakiggala, bakasiru era bamuzibe; bwe batyo si baakudda . | 75 | 57 | 12 | 9 |
Or like those who, when there cometh a storm-cloud out of the Heaven, big with darkness thunder and lightning, thrust their fingers into their ears because of the thunder-clap, for fear of death! God is round about the infidels. | Oba ering'anga enkuba ey' amaanyi eva mu bire nga erimu ekizikiza ekikwafu ne laddu n'okumyansa, abantu ne bassa ennwe zaabwe mu matu gaabwe olw'okubwatuka mbu nga beekeka okufa; naye Allah yeebunguludde abatakkiriza. | 228 | 217 | 39 | 32 |
The lightning almost snatcheth away their eyes! So oft as it gleameth on them they walk on in it, but when darkness closeth upon them, they stop! And if God pleased, of their ears and of their eyes would he surely deprive them: verily God is Almighty! | Okumyansa kumpi kubakwakkulemu okulaba kwabwe. Buli lwe kubamyansiza, bakutambuliramu; naye bwe kubazikirako, nga bayimirira. Naye singa Allah yayagala, yaaliggyeewo okuwulira kwabwe n' okulaba kwabwe. Mazima Allah ye w'Obuyinza | 251 | 228 | 47 | 28 |
O men of Mecca adore your Lord, who hath created you and those who were before you: haply ye will fear Him | ku buli kimu Abange mmwe abantu, musinze Mukama wammwe Oyo eyabatonda mmwe n'abolubereberye lwammwe, mulyooke mwekuume. | 106 | 119 | 22 | 16 |
Who hath made the earth a bed for you, and the heaven a covering, and hath caused water to come down from heaven, and by it hath brought forth fruits for your sustenance! Do not then wittingly give peers to God. | Oyo eyabakolera ensi okuba ekyaliiro n'eggulu okuba akasolya, era n'atonnyesa amazzi okuva mu bire n' agamezesesa ebibala nga by'ebyokulya byammwe. Kale temuteerangawo Allah bavuganya naye, so nga mutegeera. | 211 | 207 | 41 | 28 |
And if ye be in doubt as to that which we have sent down to our servant, then produce a Sura like it, and summon your witnesses, beside God, if ye are men of truth: | Era bwe muba nga mulinamu okubuusabuusa kw'ebyo bye twassa ku Muweereza waffe, kale nammwe muleteyo essuula egifaanana, era mukoowoole abayambi bammwe nga oggyeeko Allah, obanga muli ba mazima. | 164 | 193 | 35 | 28 |
But if ye do it not, and never shall ye do it, then fear the fire prepared for the infidels, whose fuel is men and stones: | Naye bwe mutaakikole — era nga bwe mutalikikolera ddala — kale mwerinde omuliro ogwo enku za gwo bantu na mayinja ogwategekerwa abatakkiriza. | 122 | 141 | 26 | 22 |
But announce to those who believe and do the things that are right, that for them are gardens 'neath which the rivers flow! So oft as they are fed therefrom with fruit for sustenance, they shall say, "This same was our sustenance of old:" And they shall have its like given to them. Therein shall they have wives of perf... | Era wa amawulire ag'essanyu abo abakkiriza era ne bakola ebikolwa ebirungi nti ddala balifuna ensuku ezikulukutamu emigga wansi waazo. Buli lwe baliweebwa ku bibala ebizivaamu nga by'ebyokulya, baligamba nti: Bino by' ebyo bye twaweebwanga n'olubereberye; so nga balireeterwa bibifaanana. Era balifuniramu ne bannaabwe a... | 370 | 360 | 68 | 49 |
Verily God is not ashamed to set forth as well the instance of a gnat as of any nobler object: for as to those who have believed, they know it to be the truth from their Lord; but as to the unbelievers, they will say, "What meaneth God by this comparison?" Many will He mislead by such parables and many guide: but none ... | Mazima Allah takwatibwa nsonyi okuleeta eky'okulabirako ne bwekiba ng'akabu oba ekikasingako obutono. Naye bo abakkiriza bamanya nti ddala ago ge mazima agava eri Mukama waabwe. Ate bo abatakkiriza bagamba nti: Allah agenderedde ki mu ky'okulabirako kino? Bangi abasalira okubula olw'ekyo, ate bangi abalung'amya olw'eky... | 362 | 380 | 70 | 51 |
Who, after its establishment, violate the covenant of God, and cut in sunder what God hath bidden to be joined, and act disorderly on the Earth. These are they who shall suffer loss! | Abo abamenya endagaano ya Allah oluvannyuma lw'okugikakasa era ne bakutula n'ebyo Allah bye yalagira biyungibwe, era ne batabulatabula mu nsi; abo nno be b'okufaafaaganirwa. | 182 | 173 | 33 | 24 |
How can ye withhold faith from God? Ye were dead and He gave you life; next He will cause you to die; next He will restore you to life: next shall ye return to Him! | Muyinza mutya okwegaana Allah so nga mw'ali temulina bulamu, n'abawa obulamu, n'oluvannyuma y'alibafiisa, nate era y'alibazuukiza; n' oluvannyuma gy'ali gye mulizzibwa? | 164 | 168 | 35 | 21 |
He it is who created for you all that is on Earth, then proceeded to the Heaven, and into seven Heavens did He fashion it: and He knoweth all things. | Ye y'eyabatondera ebyo ebiri mu nsi byonna; n'oluvannyuma n'ayolekera eri eggulu, n'ayooyoota emigigi gy'eggulu musanvu; era Ye ye Mumanyi wa buli kimu. | 149 | 152 | 30 | 22 |
When thy Lord said to the angels, "Verily, I am about to place one in my stead on earth," they said, "Wilt thou place there one who will do ill therein and shed blood, when we celebrate thy praise and extol thy holiness?" God said, "Verily, I know what ye know not." | Era awo Mukama wo bwe yagamba ba malayika nti: Ng'enda kussaawo omusigire mu nsi, baagamba nti: Abaffe, onoogissaamu oyo anaatabulatabula mu yo n'okuyiwa omusaayi, so nga ffe tukugulumiza n'amatendo go era tukkiriza obutukuvu bwo? N'agamba nti: Mazima Nze mmanyi mmwe bye mutamanyi. | 266 | 282 | 52 | 42 |
And he taught Adam the names of all things, and then set them before the angels, and said, "Tell me the names of these, if ye are endued with wisdom.” | Era yayigiriza Adamu amannya gonna, n' oluvannyuma ab'okugalaga n'abooleka ba malayika n'agamba nti: Kale muntegeeze amannya ga bano, obanga mwogera mazima. | 150 | 156 | 30 | 21 |
They said, "Praise be to Thee! We have no knowledge but what Thou hast given us to know. Thou! Thou art the Knowing, the Wise." | Nebagamba nti: Obutuukirivu bubwo! Tetulina kumanya kwonna okuggyako okw'ebyo bye watuyigiriza. Mazima Ggwe Mumanyi wa byonna, Omugezi ennyo. | 127 | 141 | 25 | 18 |
He said, "O Adam, inform them of their names." And when he had informed them of their names, He said, "Did I not say to you that I know the hidden things of the Heavens and of the Earth, and that I know what ye bring to light, and what ye hide?" | N'agamba nti: Owange Adamu, bategeeze amannya gaabwe. Kale awo bwe yabategeeza amannya gaabwe, n'agamba nti: Abaffe, ssaabagambye nti ddala Nze mmanyi eby'enkiso eby'omu ggulu ne mu nsi era nti mmanyi ebyo bye mwoleka ne bye mukisa? | 245 | 232 | 52 | 36 |
And when we said to the angels, "Bow down and worship Adam," then worshipped they all, save Eblis. He refused and swelled with pride, and became one of the unbelievers. | Era awo bwe twagamba ba malayika nti: Mugondere Adamu, kale bonna baagonda okuggyako Ibilis, ye yagaana ne yeekuza;era yali mw'abo abatakkiriza. | 168 | 144 | 30 | 21 |
And we said, "O Adam! dwell thou and thy wife in the Garden, and eat ye plentifully therefrom wherever ye list; but to this tree come not nigh, lest ye become of the transgressors." | Netugamba nti: Owange Adamu, ggwe ne mukyala wo mubeere mu lusuku olwo era mulye mu lwo mu bungi wonna nga bwe mwagala, naye temusembereranga omuti guno, si kulwa nga muba mu bakyaamu. | 181 | 184 | 34 | 32 |
But Satan made them slip from it, and caused their banishment from the place in which they were. And we said, "Get ye down, the one of you an enemy to the other: and there shall be for you in the earth a dwelling-place, and a provision for a time." | Naye bombi Sitaani yabaseereza ku lwa gwo, kale n' abajja mu mbeera gye baalimu. Netugamba nti: Muveemu, abamu mu mmwe balabe ba balala. Era mulina obubudamo mu nsi n'ebyokukozesa okumala ekiseera. | 248 | 197 | 50 | 31 |
And words of prayer learned Adam from his Lord: and God turned to him; for He loveth to turn, the Merciful. | Olwo Adamu n'ayiga ebigambo by' okusaba okuva eri Mukama we, n'amuddiramu. Mazima Ye ye Nannyini kuddiramu, Ow’ekisa ekingi. | 107 | 124 | 21 | 18 |
We said, "Get ye down from it, all together: and if Guidance shall come to you from me, whoso shall follow my guidance, on them shall come no fear, neither shall they be grieved: | Netugamba nti: Mwenna muluveemu. Naye bwe mulituukibwako obulung'amu obuva gyendi, kale abo abaligoberera obulung'amu bwange, tebaliba na kutya kwonna wadde tebalinakuwala. | 178 | 172 | 34 | 21 |
But they who shall not believe, and treat our signs as false-hoods, these shall be inmates of the fire; in it shall they remain for ever." | Naye abo abatalikkiriza nebalimbisa Aya zaffe, abo nno be bantu b'omuliro; bo mu gwo mwe balibeera. | 138 | 99 | 26 | 16 |
O children of Israel! remember my favour wherewith I shewed favour upon you, and be true to your covenant with me; I will be true to my covenant with you; me therefore, revere me! | Abange mmwe abaana ba Isirairi, mujjukire ebyengera byange bye nnabawa era mutuukirize endagaano yange, nange ndituukiriza endagaano yammwe, era Nze nzekka gwe muba mutya. | 179 | 171 | 34 | 24 |
and believe in what I have sent down confirming your Scriptures, and be not the first to disbelieve it, neither for a mean price barter my signs: me therefore, fear ye me! | Era mukkirize ebyo bye nassa ebikakasa ebyo ebiri nammwe, era temuba ababereberye okubigaana, era temuwaanyisanga bubonero bwange mu muwendo omutono era mutye Nze nzekka. | 171 | 170 | 32 | 24 |
And clothe not the truth with falsehood, and hide not the truth when ye know it: | Era temutabikanga mazima na bulimba nemukisa amazima, so nga mumanyi. | 80 | 69 | 16 | 10 |
And observe prayer and pay the legal impost, and bow down with those who bow. | Era mujjumbirenga essaala era mutoole zaka, era mukutamirenga wamu n'abo abakutama. | 77 | 83 | 15 | 11 |
Will ye enjoin what is right upon others, and forget yourselves? Yet ye read the Book: will ye not understand? | Abaffe, mulagira abantu okukola obulungi naye nemwerabira emyoyo gyammwe ng'ate mmwe musoma Ekitabo; abaffe temutegeera? | 110 | 120 | 20 | 15 |
And seek help with patience and prayer: a hard duty indeed is this, but not to the humble, | Era obuyambi mubusabenga na kugumiikiriza n'essaala; naye ddala kino kizibu nnyo okuggyako eri abeetoowaza, | 90 | 107 | 18 | 14 |
Who bear in mind that they shall meet their Lord, and that unto Him shall they return. | Abo abakakasa nti ddala balisisinkana ne Mukama waabwe, era nti ddala gy'ali gye balidda. | 86 | 89 | 17 | 14 |
O children of Israel! remember my favour wherewith I shewed favour upon you; for verily to you above all human beings have I been bounteous. | Abange mmwe abaana ba Isirairi, mujjukire ebyengera byange ebyo bye nnabawa era nti ddala nnabasukkulumya ku bantu abaaliwo. | 140 | 124 | 25 | 18 |
And fear ye the day when soul shall not satisfy for soul at all, nor shall any intercession be accepted from them, nor shall any ransom be taken, neither shall they be helped. | Era mutye olunaku omwoyo lwe gutaligasa mwoyo mulala n'akatono, n'okuwolereza tekulikkirizibwa ku gwo, n'ekyenunulo tekiritwalibwa okuva gye guli; wadde tebaliyambibwa. | 175 | 168 | 33 | 20 |
And remember when we rescued you from the people of Pharaoh, who had laid on you a cruel chastisement. They slew your male children, and let only your females live: and in this was a great trial from your Lord: | Era mujjukire nga bwe twabawonya abantu ba Farawo abaababonyabonya embonyabonya embi, nga batta batabani bammwe nebalekawo bakazi bammwe; era mw'ekyo mwalimu ekigezo kisuffu okuva eri Mukama wammwe. | 210 | 198 | 40 | 27 |
And when we parted the sea for you, and saved you, and drowned the people of Pharaoh, while ye were looking on: | Era mujjukire nga bwe twayawulamu ennyanja ku lwammwe netubawonya, naye ne tusaanyaawo abantu ba Farawo nga nammwe mulaba. | 111 | 122 | 22 | 18 |
And when we were in treaty with Moses forty nights: then during his absence took ye the calf and acted wickedly: | Era mujjukire nga bwe twalagaanyisa Musa ebiro amakumi ana naye oluvannyuma ng'avuddewo mwatwala ennyana okugisinza, ne muba aboononyi. | 112 | 135 | 21 | 18 |
Yet after this we forgave you, that ye might be grateful: | Nate twabasonyiwa oluvannyuma lw'ebyo, mulyooke mwebaze. | 57 | 56 | 11 | 6 |
And when we gave Moses the Book and the Illumination in order to your guidance: | Era mujjukire nga bwe twawa Musa Ekitabo n'obubonero obwawula, mulyooke mulung'ame. | 79 | 83 | 15 | 11 |
And remember when Moses said to his people, "O my people! verily ye - have sinned to your own hurt, by your taking the calf to worship it: Be turned then to your creator, and slay the guilty among you; this will be best for you with your creator:" Then turned He unto you, for He is the one who turneth, the Merciful: | Era mujjukire awo Musa bwe yagamba abantu be nti: Abange, mazima mweryazaamaanyizza mwekka olw'okutwala kwammwe ennyana nemugisinza; kale mwenenye eri Omutonzi wammwe, era mutte emyoyo gyammwe emibi, ekyo ky'ekisinga obulungi gyemuli mu maaso g' Omutonzi wammwe. Kale yabaddiramu, ddala Ye ye Nannyini kuddiramu, Ow'ekis... | 317 | 329 | 63 | 45 |
And when ye said, "O Moses! we will not believe thee until we see God plainly;" the thunderbolt fell upon you while ye were looking on: | Era mujjukire awo bwe mwagamba nti: Owange Musa, tetujja kukukkiriza okutuusa lwe tunaalaba Allah ekyeere, kale okubwatuka kwabakangavvula nga nammwe mulaba. | 135 | 157 | 26 | 21 |
Then we raised you to life after ye had been dead, that haply ye might give thanks: | Nate twabazuukiza oluvannyuma lw'okufa kwammwe, mulyooke mwebaze. | 83 | 65 | 17 | 7 |
And we caused the clouds to overshadow you, and we sent down manna and quails upon you;–"Eat of the good things we have give you for sustenance;"–and they injured not us but they injured themselves. | Era twafuula ebire okuba ekisiikirize waggulu wammwe era netubassiza Manna ne Saliwa. Mulye ku birongoofu ebyo bye twabawa. Era tebaatulumya naye beerumyanga bokka. | 198 | 164 | 35 | 23 |
And when we said, "Enter this city, and eat therefrom plentifully, at your will, and enter the gate with prostrations, and say, 'Forgiveness;' and we will pardon you your sins, and give an increase to the doers of good:"– | Era mujjukire nga bwe twagamba nti: Muyingire mu kyaalo kino kale mulye mu kyo mu bungi wonna nga bwe mwagala, era muyingire mu mulyango n'obuwulize. Era mugambe nti :Tusonyiwe ebyoonoono byaffe. Tujja kubasonyiwa ebyoonoono byammwe; era tujja kwongeza abakozi b'ebirungi. | 221 | 272 | 39 | 40 |
But the evil-doers changed that word into another than that spoken to them, and we sent down upon those evil-doers wrath from heaven, for that they had done amiss: | Naye aboonoonyi baakyusaamu ekigambo ekirala ekitaali ekyo ekyabagambibwa. Kale netussa kw'abo abaayonoona ekibonerezo okuva mu ggulu olw'okubanga baajeema. | 163 | 156 | 29 | 18 |
And when Moses asked drink for his people, we said, "Strike the rock with thy rod;" and from it there gushed twelve fountains: each tribe knew their drinking-place:–"Eat and drink," said we, "of what God hath supplied, and do no wrong on the earth by licentious deeds:" | Era mujjukire nga Musa bwe yasaba amazzi ku lw'abantu be, netugamba nti: Kuba ejjinja n'omuggo gwo. Kale nelitiiriikamu ensulo kkumi nabbiri. Buli kika nekimanya awaakyo wekinywera. Netubagamba nti: Mulye era munywe ku bigabulwa bya Allah, naye temujeemeranga mu nsi nga mutabulatabula, | 269 | 286 | 47 | 41 |
And when ye said, "O Moses! we will not put up with one sort of food: pray, therefore, thy Lord for us, that He would bring forth for us of that which the earth groweth, its herbs and its cucumbers and its garlic and its lentils and its onions:" He said, "What! will ye exchange that which is worse for what is better? G... | Era mujjukire nga bwe mwagamba nti: Owange Musa, ffe tetujja kugumira ku mmere ya kika kimu, kale tusabire Mukama wo atumerezeeyo kw'ebyo ensi by'emeza: ku nva za yo, n'emyungu gya yo, n'eng'ano ya yo, n'empokya wa yo, n'obutungulu bwa yo. N'agamba nti: Abaffe, muwaanyise ebitaliimu nsa mw'ebyo ebisinga obulungi? Kale ... | 594 | 593 | 110 | 88 |
Verily, they who believe (Muslims), and they who follow the Jewish religion, and the Christians, and the Sabeites–whoever of these believeth in God and the last day, and doeth that which is right, shall have their reward with their Lord: fear shall not come upon them, neither shall they be grieved. | Mazima abo abakkiriza n'abo Abayudaaya, n'Abakulisitaayo, n'Abasabiyi — yenna mu bo akkiriza Allah mu butuufu n'olunaku lw'enkomerero era n'akola ebikolwa ebirungi, kale abatuukiriza ebyo balifuna empeera yaabwe eri Mukama waabwe era tebaliba na kutya kwonna, wadde tebalinakuwala. | 299 | 281 | 51 | 37 |
Call to mind also when we entered into a covenant with you, and lifted up the mountain over you:–"Take hold," said we, "on what we have revealed to you, with resolution, and remember what is therein, that ye may fear:" | Era mujjukire nga bwe twatwala endagaano yammwe, netugulumiza olusozi waggulu wammwe netugambanti: Mukwate n'amaanyi ekyo kye twabawa era mujjukire ebikirimu, mulyooke mwekuume. | 218 | 177 | 40 | 22 |
But after this ye turned back, and but for God's grace and mercy toward you, ye had surely been of the lost! | Nate mwekyuusa oluvannyuma lw'ekyo. Kale singa tegyali mikisa gya Allah egiri ku mmwe n'okusaasira kwe, ddala mwalibadde mw'abo ab'okufaafaaganirwa. | 108 | 149 | 22 | 19 |
Ye know too those of you who transgressed on the Sabbath, and to whom we said, "Be changed into scouted apes:” | Era ddala mwamanya ebyafa kw'abo abeesukkulumya mu mmwe ku kiragiro kya Sabbiiti. Kale netubagamba nti: Mufuuke nga enkima ennyoomoofu. | 110 | 135 | 21 | 19 |
And we made them a warning to those of their day, and to those who came after them, and a caution to the God-fearing: | Kale netukifuula ekyokulabirako eri abo abaaliwo mu kiseera kya kyo n'abemabega wa kyo, era nga kyakuyiga eri abatya Allah. | 117 | 123 | 24 | 19 |
And when Moses said to his people, "Verily, God bids you sacrifice a COW;" they said, "Makest thou a jest of us?" He said, "God keep me from being one of the foolish." | Era mujjukire awo Musa bwe yagamba abantu be nti: Mazima Allah abalagira musale ente. Baddamu nti: Abaffe, otutwala ng'ekyokuzannyisa? N'addamu nti: Neewogoma eri Allah nneme kuba mw'abo ababuya. | 167 | 195 | 33 | 28 |
They said, "Call on thy Lord for us that He would make plain to us what she is." He said, "God saith, 'She is a cow neither old nor young, but of the middle age between the two:' do therefore what ye are bidden." | Nebagamba nti: Tusabire Mukama wo atunnyonnyole efaanana etya? N'agamba nti: Ddala Ye agamba nti: Yo nte, si nkadde era si nto, mugongo; eri mu makkati ga byombi. Kale mukole kye mulagiddwa. | 212 | 190 | 44 | 31 |
They said, "Call on your Lord for us, that he would make plain to us what is her colour." He said, "God saith, 'She is a fawn-coloured cow; her colour is very bright; she rejoiceth the beholders.' " | Nebagamba nti: Tusabire Mukama wo atunnyonnyole ebbala lya yo liri litya? N'agamba nti: Ddala Ye agamba nti: Ente eyo ya kyenvu, ebbala lya yo lyaggya bulungi, esanyusa abalabi. | 198 | 177 | 38 | 28 |
They said, "Call on they Lord for us that He would make plain to us what cow it is–for to us are cows alike,–and verily, if God please, we shall be guided rightly:" | Nebagamba nti: Tusabire Mukama wo atunnyonnyole ya ngeri ki? Mazima ffe ente zonna zitufaanaganira. Naye ddala nga Allah ayagadde, tujja kulung'ama. | 164 | 148 | 33 | 21 |
He said, "God saith, 'She is a cow not worn by ploughing the earth or watering the field, sound, no blemish in her.' " They said, "Now hast thou brought the truth:" Then they sacrificed her; Yet nearly had they done it not: | N'agamba nti: Ddala Ye agamba nti: Yo y'ente etannayenjebuka olw'okukabala ettaka wadde tefukirira nnimiro. Nnamu tteke, teriiko kamogo. Nebagamba nti: Kati nno oleese amazima. Olwo nebagisala, newaakubadde nga tebaalyagadde kukikola. | 223 | 234 | 43 | 30 |
And when ye slew a man, and strove among yourselves about him, God brought to light what he had hidden: | Era mujjukire nga bwe mwatta omuntu nemulumagana ku kyo; naye Allah ye Mukwekuzi w' ebyo bye mwakwekanga. | 103 | 105 | 20 | 17 |
For we said, "Strike the corpse with part of her." So God giveth life to the dead, and sheweth you his signs, that haply ye may understand. | Kale netugamba nti: Ekikolwa ekyo mukigerageranye ku binnaakyo. Bw'atyo nno Allah bw'azuukiza abafu; era abalaga obubonero bwe, mulyooke mukozese amagezi. | 139 | 154 | 27 | 20 |
Then after that your hearts became hard like rocks, or harder still: for verily, from rocks have rivers gushed; others, verily, have been cleft, and water hath issued from them; and others, verily, have sunk down through fear of God: And God is not regardless of your actions. | Nate emitima gyammwe gyakakanyala oluvannyuma lw'ekyo, kale negiba ng'amayinja oba okukakanyala okusukkirivu; kuba ddala mu mayinja mulimu agafukumukamu emigga. Era ddala mu go mulimu agaatikayatika negavaamu amazzi. Era ddala mu go mulimu n'agagwa olw'okutya Allah. Era Allah si mugayaalirivu kw'ebyo bye mukola. | 276 | 313 | 48 | 42 |
Desire ye then that for your sakes the Jews should believe? Yet a part of them heard the word of God, and then, after they had understood it, perverted it, and knew that they did so. | Abaffe, mulowooza nti banaabakkiriza ng'ate waliwo ekibiina mu bo ekiwuliriza ekigambo kya Allah n'oluvannyuma nga bamaze okukitegeera nebakikyuusa, so nga bamanyi? | 182 | 164 | 36 | 21 |
And when they fall in with the faithful, they say, "We believe;" but when they are apart one with another, they say, "Will ye acquaint them with what God hath revealed to you, that they may dispute with you about it in the presence of your Lord?" Understand ye their aim? | Era bwe basisinkana n'abo abakkiriza, bagamba nti: Tukkiriza. Naye bwe baba bokka na bokka, bagamba nti: Abaffe, mubategeeza ebyo Allah bye yabaggulirawo balyooke babawakanyise na byo mu maaso ga Mukama wammwe, abaffe temulina magezi? | 271 | 234 | 51 | 34 |
Know they not that God knoweth what they hide, as well as what they bring to light? | Abaffe, tebamanyi nti ddala Allah amanyi ebyo bye bakweka n'ebyo bye booleka? | 83 | 77 | 17 | 12 |
But there are illiterates among them who are unacquainted with the Book, but with lies only, and have but vague fancies. | Era mu bo mulimu abatamanyi na kusoma; tebamanyi na Kitabo okuggyako okugoberera ebirowoozo eby'obulimba, era ddala tebali ku kirala wabula bateebeeka buteebeesi. | 120 | 162 | 21 | 22 |
Woe to those who with their own hands transcribe the Book corruptly, and then say, "This is from God," that they may sell it for some mean price! Woe then to them for that which their hands have written! and, Woe to them for the gains which they have made! | Kale zibasanze abo abawandiika Ekitabo n'emikono gyabwe n'oluvannyuma ne bagamba nti: Kino kyava eri Allah, balyooke bakiwaanyiseemu omuwendo omutono. Kale zibasanze olw'ebyo emikono gyabwe bye gyawandiika, era zibasanze olw'ebyo bye bafuna. | 256 | 241 | 50 | 31 |
And they say, "Hell fire shall not touch us, but for a few days:" SAY: Have ye received such a promise from God? for God will not revoke his promise: or, Speak ye of God that which ye know not? | Era bagamba nti: Omuliro tegulitukoonako okuggyako ennaku embale. Gamba nti: Abaffe, mwafuna ekisuubizo okuva eri Allah; Allah ky'aliva tamenya kisuubizo kye oba mwogera ku Allah ebyo bye mutamanyi? | 193 | 198 | 40 | 28 |
But they whose only gains are evil works, and who are environed by their sins,–they shall be inmates of the fire, therein to abide for ever: | Ddala oyo akola ekibi n'ekibi kye nekimwebungulula, kale abo be bantu b'omuliro; bo mu gwo mwe balibeera. | 140 | 105 | 26 | 17 |
But they who have believed and done the things that be right, they shall be the inmates of Paradise,–therein to abide for ever. | Ddala oyo akola ekibi n'ekibi kye nekimwebungulula, kale abo be bantu b'omuliro; bo mu gwo mwe balibeera. | 127 | 105 | 23 | 17 |
And when we entered into covenant with the children of Israel, we said, "Worship none but God, and be good to your parents and kindred, and to orphans, and to the poor, and speak with men what is right, and observe prayer, and pay the stated alms." Then turned ye away, except a few of you, and withdrew afar off. | Era mujjukire nga bwe twatwala endagaano y'abaana ba Isirairi nti: Temuusinzenga mulala okuggyako Allah, n'abazadde bombiriri munabayisanga bulungi, n'abammwe ne bamulekwa n'abankuseere, era munayogeranga bulungi n'abantu. Era munajjumbiranga essaala era nemutoola zaka. Naye oluvannyuma mwefuula era nemukubayo mabega, ... | 313 | 346 | 60 | 42 |
And when we made a covenant with you that ye should not shed your own blood, nor expel one another from your abodes, then ye ratified it and yourselves were witnesses. | Era mujjukire nga bwe twatwala endagaano yammwe nti: Temuuyiwenga misaayi gyammwe, era temuugobenga bannammwe mu maka gammwe; n'oluvannyuma mwakakasa endagaano era mwali bajulizi ku yo. | 167 | 185 | 31 | 25 |
Then were ye the very persons who slew one another; and ye drove out a part of your own people from their abodes; ye lent help against them with wrong and hatred; but if they come captives to you, ye redeem them!–Yet it was forbidden you to drive them out. | Nate mmwe muumwo abatta bannammwe era nemugoba n'abamu mu mmwe mu maka gaabwe, nga muyambagana ku bo n'ekibi n'obujoozi. Ate bwe bajja gye muli nga bawambe, mubanunula, so nga n'okubagoba kwabaziyizibwa. | 256 | 203 | 50 | 31 |
Believe ye then part of the Book, and deny part? But what shall be the meed of him among you who doth this, but shame in this life? And on the day of the Resurrection they shall be sent to the most cruel of torments, for God is not regardless of what ye do. | Abaffe, Ekitabo mukikkirizaamu bimu ate ebirala ne mubigaana? Kale mpeera ki esaana oyo akola ekyo mu mmwe, okuggyako obuswaavu mu bulamu bw'ensi; ne ku lunaku lw'okuzuukira balizzibwa eri ekibonerezo ekisingira ddala obukakali. Era Allah si mugayaalirivu kw'ebyo bye mukola. | 257 | 275 | 54 | 39 |
These are they who purchase this present life at the price of that which is to come: their torment shall not be lightened, neither shall they be helped. | Abo nno be baawaanyisa obulamu bw'ensi mu bw'enkomerero. Kale tebalikendeerezebwa ku kibonerezo wadde tebaliyambibwa. | 152 | 117 | 28 | 14 |
Moreover, to Moses gave we "the Book," and we raised up apostles after him; and to Jesus, son of Mary, gave we clear proofs of his mission, and strengthened him by the Holy Spirit. So oft then as an apostle cometh to you with that which your souls desire not, swell ye with pride, and treat some as impostors, and slay o... | Era mazima twawa Musa Ekitabo era netugobereza Abatume oluvannyuma lwe, era ne tuwa Isa mutabani wa Maryamu obubonero obw'olwatu era netumuwagira n'omwoyo gw'obutuukirivu. Abaffe mmwe buli lwe mujjirwa Omubaka n'ebyo emyoyo gyammwe bye gitayagala, nga mwekuza? Kale abamu mwabalimbisa n'abalala ne mubatta. | 326 | 307 | 62 | 42 |
And they say, "Uncircumcised are our hearts." Nay! God hath cursed them in their infidelity: few are they who believe! | Era baagamba nti: Emyoyo gyaffe mibuutikire. Si kyo, Allah y'eyabakolimira olw'okwerema kwabwe. Bwe kityo nno bitono nnyo bye bakkiriza. | 118 | 136 | 20 | 19 |
And when a Book had come to them from God, confirming that which they had received already–although they had before prayed for victory over those who believed not–yet when that Koran come to them, of which they had knowledge, they did not recognise it. The curse of God on the infidels! | Era bwe baatuukibwako Ekitabo ekiva eri Allah ekikakasa ebyo bye bali nabyo baakigaana, so nga olubereberye be baasabanga obuwanguzi ku batakkiriza; naye kye bamanyidde ddala bwe kyabatuukako, baakigaana. Kale ekikolimo kya Allah kibe ku batakkiriza. | 286 | 250 | 51 | 35 |
For a vile price have they sold themselves, by not believing what God hath sent down, envious of God's sending down his grace on such of his servants as he pleaseth: and they have brought on themselves wrath upon wrath. And for the unbelievers is a disgraceful chastisement. | Nga kibi nnyo ekyo kye baatundamu emyoyo gyabwe olw'okugaana ebyo Allah bye yassa olw'obuggya mbu kubanga Allah assizza emikisa gye kw'oyo gw'asiimye mu baweereza be! Kale beereetera obusungu ate ku busungu; era abatakkiriza be balifuna ekibonerezo ekiswaaza. | 274 | 259 | 48 | 37 |
And when it is said to them, "Believe in what God hath sent down," they say, "In that which hath been sent down to us we believe:" but what hath since been sent down they disbelieve, although it be the truth confirmatory of their own Scriptures. SAY: Why then have ye of old slain God's prophets, if ye are indeed believ... | Era bwe bagambibwa nti: Mukkirize ebyo Allah bye yassa, bagamba nti: Ffe tukkiriza ebyo ebyassibwa gye tuli, ate ne bagaana ebyo eby'oluvannyuma lwa byo ng'ate ge mazima agakakasa ebyo bye bali nabyo. Gamba nti: Ate lwaki mwaagezaako okutta ba Nabbi ba Allah olubereberye, obanga muli bakkiriza? | 324 | 295 | 61 | 46 |
