Psalms 19
1 For the music director. A psalm of David. The heavens declare God's glory; the skies above announce what he has made.
Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Eggulu litegeeza ekitiibwa kya Katonda, ebbanga ne litegeeza emirimu gy’emikono gye.
2 Each day speaks constantly about God's glory to the next day; each night shares knowledge of God with the next night.
Buli lunaku litegeeza ekitiibwa kye, era liraga amagezi ge buli kiro.
3 They speak without speech or words; their voice is not audible;
Tewali bigambo oba olulimi olwogerwa, era n’eddoboozi lyabyo teriwulikika.
4 Yet what they say is heard all over the earth; their message goes to the whole world. God has made a home in the heavens for the sun.
Naye obubaka bwabyo bubunye mu nsi yonna. Mu ggulu omwo Katonda mwe yasimbira enjuba eweema.
5 It's like a bridegroom coming out of his room, like a fit athlete happy to run a race.
Evaayo ng’awasa omugole bw’ava mu nju ye, era ng’omuddusi asinga bonna bw’ajjula essanyu ng’agenda mu mpaka.
6 It rises on one side of the heavens and travels across to the other. Nothing is hidden from its heat.
Evaayo ku ludda olumu olw’eggulu, ne yeetooloola okutuuka ku nkomerero yaalyo, era tewali kyekweka bbugumu lyayo.
7 The Lord's law is beneficial, renewing spiritual life. The Lord's teaching is trustworthy, making inexperienced people wise.
Ekiragiro kya Mukama kirimu byonna, era kizzaamu amaanyi mu mwoyo. Etteeka lya Mukama lyesigika, ligeziwaza abatalina magezi.
8 The Lord's instructions are right, making people glad. The Lord's commandments are sincere, helping people see what is good.
Okuyigiriza kwa Mukama kutuufu, kusanyusa omutima gw’oyo akugondera. Ebiragiro bya Mukama bimulisiza amaaso, bye galaba.
9 Reverence for the Lord is right, and lasts forever. The Lord's judgments are both true and fair.
Okutya Mukama kirungi, era kya mirembe gyonna. Ebiragiro bya Mukama bya bwenkanya, era bya butuukirivu ddala.
10 They are more to be valued than gold, even the finest gold; they are sweeter than honey, even the purest honey coming straight from 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 They also warn your servant. By keeping them I'm richly rewarded.
Ebyo bye birabula omuddu wo, era mu kubigondera muvaamu empeera ennene.
12 Who's aware of their own mistakes? Don't punish me for these faults I'm unaware of.
Ani asobola okulaba ebyonoono bye? Onsonyiwe, Ayi Mukama, ebibi ebinkisiddwa.
13 Don't let your servant commit deliberate sins. Don't let them rule over me. Then I will be without fault, innocent of such rebellion.
Era omuddu wo omuwonye okukola ebibi ebigenderere, bireme kunfuga. Bwe ntyo mbeere ng’ataliiko kyakunenyezebwa nneme okuzza omusango omunene ogw’ekibi.
14 May you be pleased with the words I speak, and the thoughts I think, Lord 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.
