Psalms 59
1 To the chief Musician. 'Destroy not.' Of David. Michtam; when Saul sent, and they watched the house to kill him. Deliver me from mine enemies, O my God; secure me on high from them that rise up against me.
Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Ku ddoboozi, “Tozikiriza.” Zabbuli ya Dawudi, Sawulo bwe yatuma bakuume enju ya Dawudi bamutte. Ayi Katonda wange, mponya abalabe bange; onnwanirire, abantu bwe bangolokokerako.
2 Deliver me from the workers of iniquity, and save me from men of blood.
Omponye abakola ebitali bya butuukirivu, era ondokole mu batemu.
3 For behold, they lie in wait for my soul; strong ones are gathered against me: not for my transgression, nor for my sin, O Jehovah.
Laba banneekwekeredde nga banteega okunzita. Abasajja ab’amaanyi abakambwe banneekobera, Ayi Mukama, so nga soonoonye wadde okubaako ne kye nsobezza.
4 They run and prepare themselves without [my] fault: awake to meet me, and behold.
Sirina kye nsobezza, naye bateekateeka okunnumba. Tunuulira obuzibu bwange, osituke, onnyambe.
5 Yea, do thou, Jehovah, the God of hosts, the God of Israel, arise to visit all the nations: be not gracious to any plotters of iniquity. (Selah)
Ayi Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye, Katonda wa Isirayiri, golokoka obonereze amawanga gonna; abo bonna abasala enkwe tobasaasira.
6 They return in the evening; they howl like a dog, and go round about the city:
Bakomawo buli kiro, nga babolooga ng’embwa, ne batambulatambula mu kibuga.
7 Behold, they belch out with their mouth; swords are in their lips: for who [say they] doth hear?
Laba, bwe bavuma! Ebigambo biwamatuka mu kamwa kaabwe ng’ebitala, nga boogera nti, “Ani atuwulira?”
8 But thou, Jehovah, wilt laugh at them; thou wilt have all the nations in derision.
Naye ggwe, Ayi Mukama, obasekerera, era amawanga ago gonna oganyooma.
9 Their strength! ...I will take heed to thee; for God is my high fortress.
Ayi Katonda, Amaanyi gange, nnaakwesiganga era nnaakutenderezanga, kubanga ggwe kigo kyange ekinywevu.
10 God, whose loving-kindness will come to meet me, — God shall let me see [my desire] upon mine enemies.
Katonda wange anjagala anankulemberanga, ne ndyoka neeyagalira ku balabe bange.
11 Slay them not, lest my people forget; by thy power make them wander, and bring them down, O Lord, our shield.
Tobatta, Ayi Mukama, engabo yaffe, abantu bange baleme kwerabira; mu buyinza bwo obungi, baleke batangetange; n’oluvannyuma obakkakkanyize ddala.
12 [Because of] the sin of their mouth, the word of their lips, let them even be taken in their pride; and because of cursing and lying which they speak.
Amalala gaabwe n’ebyonoono ebiva mu kamwa kaabwe, n’ebigambo by’oku mimwa gyabwe leka byonna bibatege ng’omutego. Kubanga bakolima era ne boogera eby’obulimba.
13 Make an end in wrath, make an end, that they may be no more; that they may know that God ruleth in Jacob, unto the ends of the earth. (Selah)
Bamaleewo n’ekiruyi kyo, bamalirewo ddala; amawanga gonna galyoke gategeere nga Katonda wa Yakobo y’afuga ensi yonna.
14 And in the evening they shall return, they shall howl like a dog, and go round about the city.
Bakomawo nga buwungedde nga babolooga ng’embwa, ne batambulatambula mu kibuga.
15 They shall wander about for meat, and stay all night if they be not satisfied.
Banoonya emmere buli wantu mu kibuga, ne bawowoggana bwe batakkuta.
16 But as for me, I will sing of thy strength; yea, I will sing aloud of thy loving-kindness in the morning; for thou hast been to me a high fortress, and a refuge in the day of my trouble.
Naye nze nnaayimbanga nga ntendereza amaanyi go; mu makya nnaayimbanga ku kwagala kwo; kubanga ggwe kigo kyange, era ggwe kiddukiro kyange mu buzibu bwange.
17 Unto thee, my strength, will I sing psalms; for God is my high fortress, the God of my mercy.
Ggwe, Ayi Katonda, Amaanyi gange, nnaakuyimbiranga nga nkutendereza; kubanga ggwe kigo kyange, era ggwe Katonda wange, anjagala.
