< Psalms 41 >
1 Blessed is he who considers a poor man. Jehovah will deliver him in the day of evil.
Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Alina omukisa asaasira omunaku; Mukama amulokola ku lunaku olw’akabi.
2 Jehovah will preserve him, and keep him alive, and he shall be blessed upon the earth. And thou do not deliver him to the will of his enemies.
Mukama anaamukuumanga anaawonyanga obulamu bwe, era anaamuwanga omukisa mu nsi; n’atamuwaayo eri okwegomba kw’abalabe be.
3 Jehovah will support him upon the bed of languishing. Thou will make all his bed in his sickness.
Mukama anaamujjanjabanga nga mulwadde; n’amuwonya mu bulumi.
4 I said, O Jehovah, have mercy upon me. Heal my soul, for I have sinned against thee.
Nayogera nti, “Ayi Mukama onsaasire omponye; kubanga nnyonoonye mu maaso go.”
5 My enemies speak evil against me, saying, When will he die, and his name perish?
Abalabe bange boogeza obukyayi nti, “Alifa ddi n’okwerabirwa ne yeerabirwa?”
6 And if he comes to see me, he speaks falsehood. His heart gathers iniquity to itself. When he goes abroad, he tells it.
Bwe bajja okundaba beefuula mikwano gyange; naye munda yaabwe bankyawa era basanyuka okulaba nga ngalamidde awo nnumwa. Bwe bansiibula bagenda beesekera nga bwe baduula.
7 All who hate me whisper together against me. Against me they devise my hurt.
Abalabe bange bonna abo bateesa mu kaama; nga banjogerako ebitali birungi.
8 An evil disease, they say, clings firm to him. And now that he lies he shall rise up no more.
Boogera nti, “Endwadde emukutte mbi nnyo, emukubye wansi tayinza kuwona.”
9 Yea, my own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, who ate of my bread, has lifted up his heel against me.
Era ne mukwano gwange gwe neesiganga bwe twalyanga, anneefuukidde.
10 But thou, O Jehovah, have mercy upon me, and raise me up that I may requite them.
Naye ggwe, Ayi Mukama, onsaasire, onzizeemu amaanyi ndyoke nneesasuze.
11 By this I know that thou delight in me, because my enemy does not triumph over me.
Mmanyi ng’onsanyukira, kubanga omulabe wange tampangudde.
12 And as for me, thou uphold me in my integrity, and set me before thy face forever.
Onnywezezza mu bwesimbu bwange, ne mbeera mu maaso go ennaku zonna.
13 Blessed be Jehovah, the God of Israel, from everlasting and to everlasting. Truly, and Truly.
Atenderezebwenga Mukama Katonda wa Isirayiri, oyo eyabaawo okuva edda n’edda lyonna n’okutuusa emirembe gyonna.
