Psalms 108
1 Song of a Psalm by David. O God, my heart is ready, my heart is ready; I will sing and sing psalms with my glory.
Oluyimba. Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Omutima gwange munywevu, Ayi Katonda; nnaayimbanga ne nkutendereza n’omwoyo gwange gwonna.
2 Awake, lute and harp; I will awake early.
Muzuukuke, mmwe entongooli n’ennanga ey’enkoba, nzija kuyimba okukeesa obudde.
3 I will give thanks to you, O Lord, amongst the people; I will sing praise to you amongst the Gentiles.
Nnaakutenderezanga, Ayi Mukama, mu bantu bonna, nnaakuyimbiranga mu mawanga gonna.
4 For your mercy is great above the heavens, and your truth [reaches] to the clouds.
Okwagala kwo kunene, kutumbiira okutuuka ku ggulu; n’obwesigwa bwo butuuka ku bire.
5 Be you exalted, O God, above the heavens; and your glory above all the earth.
Ogulumizibwenga, Ayi Katonda, okuyisa eggulu; n’ekitiibwa kyo kibune ensi yonna.
6 That your beloved [ones] may be delivered, save with your right hand, and hear me. God has spoken in his sanctuary;
Tulokole otuyambe n’omukono gwo ogwa ddyo, abo booyagala banunulibwe.
7 I will be exalted, and will divide Sicima, and will measure out the valley of tents.
Katonda ayogedde ng’asinziira mu kifo kye ekitukuvu n’agamba nti, “Nga nzijudde essanyu, ndisala mu Sekemu, era n’Ekiwonvu kya Sukkosi ndikigabanyagabanyaamu.
8 Galaad is mine; and Manasses is mine; and Ephraim is the help of mine head; Judas is my king;
Ensi ya Gireyaadi yange, n’eya Manase nayo yange. Efulayimu mwe muli abalwanyi bange abazira; ate mu Yuda mwe munaavanga bakabaka.
9 Moab is the cauldron of my hope; over Idumea will I cast my sandal; the Philistines are made subject to me.
Mowaabu be baweereza bange abawulize; ate Edomu be baddu bange; Abafirisuuti ndibaleekaanira mu ddoboozi ery’omwanguka ery’obuwanguzi.”
10 Who will bring me into the fortified city? or who will guide me to Idumea?
Ani anantuusa ku kibuga ekigumu ekinywevu? Ani anankulembera okunnyingiza mu Edomu?
11 Will not you, O God, who have rejected us? and will not you, O God, go forth with our hosts?
Si ggwe, ayi Katonda, atusudde, atakyatabaala n’amaggye gaffe?
12 Give us help from tribulation: for vain is the help of man.
Tudduukirire nga tulwanyisa abalabe baffe, kubanga obuyambi bw’abantu temuli nsa.
13 Through God we shall do valiantly; and he will bring to nothing our enemies.
Bwe tunaabeeranga ne Katonda tunaabanga bawanguzi; kubanga y’anaalinnyiriranga abalabe baffe wansi w’ebigere bye.
