Psalms 24

1 The earth is Jehovah's, and the fullness thereof, the world, and those who dwell therein.

Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Ensi ya Mukama n’ebigirimu byonna, n’ensi zonna n’abo abazibeeramu.

2 For he has founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.

Kubanga yasimba emisingi gyayo mu nnyanja, n’agizimba ku mazzi amangi.

3 Who shall ascend into the hill of Jehovah? And who shall stand in his holy place?

Alyambuka ku lusozi lwa Mukama ye afaanana atya? Era wa ngeri ki aliyingira n’ayimirira mu nnyumba ye entukuvu?

4 He who has clean hands, and a pure heart, who has not lifted up his soul to falsehood, and has not sworn deceitfully.

Oyo alina omutima omulongoofu, nga n’emikono gye mirongoofu; atasinza bakatonda abalala, era atalayirira bwereere.

5 He shall receive a blessing from Jehovah, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.

Oyo Mukama anaamuwanga omukisa, n’obutuukirivu okuva eri Katonda ow’obulokozi bwe.

6 This is the generation of those who seek after him, who seek thy face, even Jacob. (Selah)

Ogwo gwe mulembe gw’abo abakunoonya, Ayi Katonda wa Yakobo.

7 Lift up your heads, O ye gates, and be ye lifted up, ye everlasting doors, and the King of glory will come in.

Mweggulewo, mmwe bawankaaki! Muggulwewo, mmwe enzigi ez’edda, Kabaka ow’ekitiibwa ayingire.

8 Who is the King of glory? Jehovah strong and mighty, Jehovah mighty in battle.

Kabaka ow’ekitiibwa ye ani? Ye Mukama ow’amaanyi era ow’obuyinza, omuwanguzi mu ntalo.

9 Lift up your heads, O ye gates. Yea, lift them up, ye everlasting doors, and the King of glory will come in.

Mweggulewo, mmwe bawankaaki, muggulwewo mmwe enzigi ez’edda! Kabaka ow’ekitiibwa ayingire.

10 Who is this King of glory? Jehovah of hosts, He is the King of glory. (Selah)

Kabaka ow’ekitiibwa oyo ye ani? Mukama Ayinzabyonna; oyo ye Kabaka ow’ekitiibwa.
