19 (A)Ne Babulooni, ekitiibwa eky’obwakabaka,
    obulungi obw’okwemanya kw’Abakaludaaya,
kiriba nga Sodomu ne Ggomola
    Katonda bye yawamba.
20 (B)Tekiriddamu kusulwamu ennaku zonna,
    so tekiribeerwamu emirembe n’emirembe,
so teri Muwalabu alisimbayo weema ye,
    teri musumba aligalamizaayo ggana lye kuwummulirayo.
21 (C)Naye ensolo enkambwe ez’omu ddungu ze zinaagalamirangayo;
    ennyumba zijjule ebintu ebiwoowoola;
bammaaya banaabeeranga eyo,
    n’ebikulekule bibuukire eyo.

19 Babylon,(A) the jewel of kingdoms,(B)
    the pride and glory(C) of the Babylonians,[a]
will be overthrown(D) by God
    like Sodom and Gomorrah.(E)
20 She will never be inhabited(F)
    or lived in through all generations;
there no nomads(G) will pitch their tents,
    there no shepherds will rest their flocks.
21 But desert creatures(H) will lie there,
    jackals(I) will fill her houses;
there the owls(J) will dwell,
    and there the wild goats(K) will leap about.
22 Hyenas(L) will inhabit her strongholds,(M)
    jackals(N) her luxurious palaces.
Her time is at hand,(O)
    and her days will not be prolonged.(P)
