< Psalms 41 >

1 For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. Blessed is the one who cares for the poor; the LORD will deliver him in the day of trouble.
Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Alina omukisa asaasira omunaku; Mukama amulokola ku lunaku olw’akabi.
2 The LORD will protect and preserve him; He will bless him in the land and refuse to surrender him to the will of his foes.
Mukama anaamukuumanga anaawonyanga obulamu bwe, era anaamuwanga omukisa mu nsi; n’atamuwaayo eri okwegomba kw’abalabe be.
3 The LORD will sustain him on his bed of illness and restore him from his bed of sickness.
Mukama anaamujjanjabanga nga mulwadde; n’amuwonya mu bulumi.
4 I said, “O LORD, be gracious to me; heal me, for I have sinned against You.”
Nayogera nti, “Ayi Mukama onsaasire omponye; kubanga nnyonoonye mu maaso go.”
5 My enemies say with malice: “When will he die and be forgotten?”
Abalabe bange boogeza obukyayi nti, “Alifa ddi n’okwerabirwa ne yeerabirwa?”
6 My visitor speaks falsehood; he gathers slander in his heart; he goes out and spreads it abroad.
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 against me; they imagine the worst for me:
Abalabe bange bonna abo bateesa mu kaama; nga banjogerako ebitali birungi.
8 “A vile disease has been poured into him; he will never get up from where he lies!”
Boogera nti, “Endwadde emukutte mbi nnyo, emukubye wansi tayinza kuwona.”
9 Even my close friend whom I trusted, the one who shared my bread, has lifted up his heel against me.
Era ne mukwano gwange gwe neesiganga bwe twalyanga, anneefuukidde.
10 But You, O LORD, be gracious to me and raise me up, that I may repay them.
Naye ggwe, Ayi Mukama, onsaasire, onzizeemu amaanyi ndyoke nneesasuze.
11 By this I know that You delight in me, for my enemy does not triumph over me.
Mmanyi ng’onsanyukira, kubanga omulabe wange tampangudde.
12 In my integrity You uphold me and set me in Your presence forever.
Onnywezezza mu bwesimbu bwange, ne mbeera mu maaso go ennaku zonna.
13 Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting. Amen and Amen.
Atenderezebwenga Mukama Katonda wa Isirayiri, oyo eyabaawo okuva edda n’edda lyonna n’okutuusa emirembe gyonna.
