Psalms 80
1 For the end, for alternate [strains], a testimony for Asaph, a Psalm concerning the Assyrian. Attend, O Shepherd of Israel, who guide Joseph like a flock; you who sit upon the cherubs, manifest yourself;
Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Ku ddoboozi, “Amalanga g’Endagaano.” Zabbuli ya Asafu. Wulira, Ayi Omusumba wa Isirayiri; ggwe akulembera Yusufu ng’alunda ekisibo kyo; ggwe atudde ku ntebe ey’obwakabaka mu bakerubi, twakire.
2 before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasse, stir up your power, and come to deliver us.
Amaanyi go galabike mu Efulayimu, ne mu Benyamini ne mu Manase, ojje otulokole.
3 Turn us, O God, and cause your face to shine; and we shall be delivered.
Tukomyewo gy’oli, Ayi Katonda, otutunuulize amaaso ag’ekisa, otulokole.
4 O Lord God of hosts, how long are you angry with the prayer of your servant?
Ayi Katonda, Mukama ow’Eggye, olituusa ddi okusunguwalira okusaba kw’abantu bo?
5 You will feed us with bread of tears; and will cause us to drink tears by measure.
Wabaliisa emmere ejjudde amaziga; n’obanywesa ebikopo by’amaziga musera.
6 You has made us a strife to our neighbours; and our enemies have mocked at us.
Otufudde eky’okusekererwa mu baliraanwa baffe, n’abalabe baffe ne batuduulira.
7 Turn us, O Lord God of hosts, and cause your face to shine; and we shall be saved. (Pause)
Tukomyewo gy’oli, Ayi Mukama ow’Eggye, otutunuulize amaaso go ag’ekisa, tulokolebwe.
8 You have transplanted a vine out of Egypt: you have cast out the heathen, and planted it.
Waleeta omuzabbibu ng’oguggya mu Misiri; n’ogobamu amawanga agaali mu nsi muno n’ogusimba.
9 You made a way before it, and did cause its roots to strike, and the land was filled [with it].
Wagulongooseza ettaka, ne gumera, emirandira ne ginywera bulungi, ne gwagaagala mu nsi.
10 Its shadow covered the mountains, and its shoots [equalled] the goodly cedars.
Ekisiikirize kyagwo ne kibikka ensozi, n’amatabi gaagwo ne gaba ng’emivule egy’amaanyi.
11 It sent forth its branches to the sea, and its shoots to the river.
Amatabi gaagwo ne gatuuka ku Nnyanja eya Wakati n’amatabi g’ennyanja gaayo ne gatuuka ku Mugga Fulaati.
12 Therefore have you broken down its hedge, while all that pass by the way pluck it?
Kale wamenyera ki ebisenge byagwo, abayitawo bonna ne beenogera ebibala byagwo?
13 The boar out of the wood has laid it waste, and the wild beast has devoured it.
Embizzi ez’omu kibira zigwonoona, na buli nsolo ey’omu nsiko egulya.
14 O God of hosts, turn, we pray you: look on [us] from heaven, and behold and visit this vine;
Tukyukire, Ayi Katonda ow’Eggye, otunuulire ensi ng’osinziira mu ggulu; olabirire omuzabbibu guno.
15 and restore that which your right hand has planted: and look on the son of man whom you did strengthen for yourself.
Gwe wagwesimbira n’omukono gwo ogwa ddyo, era ggwe weerondera omwana wo.
16 [It is] burnt with fire and dug up: they shall perish at the rebuke of your presence.
Bagutemye, ne bagwokya omuliro; abakoze ekyo banenye mu bukambwe, obazikirize.
17 Let your hand be upon the man of your right hand, and upon the son of man whom you did strengthen for yourself.
Naye muwe amaanyi omusajja oyo gw’oyagala era omwana oyo gwe weerondera.
18 So will we not depart from you: you shall quicken us, and we will call upon your name.
Bwe tutyo tuleme okukuvaako, n’okukukuba amabega. Otuzzeemu amaanyi, naffe tunaakoowoolanga erinnya lyo.
19 Turn us, O Lord God of hosts, and make your face to shine; and we shall be saved.
Otukomyewo gy’oli, Ayi Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye, otutunuulize amaaso go ag’ekisa, tulyoke tulokolebwe.
