Psalms 19
1 To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory of God; and the expanse sheweth the work of his hands.
Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Eggulu litegeeza ekitiibwa kya Katonda, ebbanga ne litegeeza emirimu gy’emikono gye.
2 Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.
Buli lunaku litegeeza ekitiibwa kye, era liraga amagezi ge buli kiro.
3 There is no speech and there are no words, yet their voice is heard.
Tewali bigambo oba olulimi olwogerwa, era n’eddoboozi lyabyo teriwulikika.
4 Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their language to the extremity of the world. In them hath he set a tent for the sun,
Naye obubaka bwabyo bubunye mu nsi yonna. Mu ggulu omwo Katonda mwe yasimbira enjuba eweema.
5 And he is as a bridegroom going forth from his chamber; he rejoiceth as a strong man to run the race.
Evaayo ng’awasa omugole bw’ava mu nju ye, era ng’omuddusi asinga bonna bw’ajjula essanyu ng’agenda mu mpaka.
6 His going forth is from the end of the heavens, and his circuit unto the ends of it; and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.
Evaayo ku ludda olumu olw’eggulu, ne yeetooloola okutuuka ku nkomerero yaalyo, era tewali kyekweka bbugumu lyayo.
7 The law of Jehovah is perfect, restoring the soul; the testimony of Jehovah is sure, making wise the simple;
Ekiragiro kya Mukama kirimu byonna, era kizzaamu amaanyi mu mwoyo. Etteeka lya Mukama lyesigika, ligeziwaza abatalina magezi.
8 The precepts of Jehovah are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of Jehovah is pure, enlightening the eyes;
Okuyigiriza kwa Mukama kutuufu, kusanyusa omutima gw’oyo akugondera. Ebiragiro bya Mukama bimulisiza amaaso, bye galaba.
9 The fear of Jehovah is clean, enduring for ever; the judgments of Jehovah are truth, they are righteous altogether:
Okutya Mukama kirungi, era kya mirembe gyonna. Ebiragiro bya Mukama bya bwenkanya, era bya butuukirivu ddala.
10 They are more precious than gold, yea, than much fine gold; and sweeter than honey and the dropping of the honeycomb.
Ebyo byonna bisaana okuyaayaanirwa okusinga zaabu, okusingira ddala zaabu ennungi ennyo. Biwoomerera okusinga omubisi gw’enjuki, okusukkirira omubisi gw’enjuki ogutonnya nga guva mu bisenge byagwo.
11 Moreover, by them is thy servant enlightened; in keeping them there is great reward.
Ebyo bye birabula omuddu wo, era mu kubigondera muvaamu empeera ennene.
12 Who understandeth [his] errors? Purify me from secret [faults].
Ani asobola okulaba ebyonoono bye? Onsonyiwe, Ayi Mukama, ebibi ebinkisiddwa.
13 Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous [sins]; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be perfect, and I shall be innocent from great transgression.
Era omuddu wo omuwonye okukola ebibi ebigenderere, bireme kunfuga. Bwe ntyo mbeere ng’ataliiko kyakunenyezebwa nneme okuzza omusango omunene ogw’ekibi.
14 Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in thy sight, O Jehovah, my rock, and my redeemer.
Nsaba ebigambo by’omu kamwa kange, n’okulowooza okw’omu mutima gwange, bisiimibwe mu maaso go, Ayi Mukama, Olwazi lwange, era Omununuzi wange.
