Psalms 69
1 For the Leader; upon Shoshannim. A Psalm of David. Save me, O God; for the waters are come in even unto the soul.
Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Mu ddoboozi ery’Amalanga. Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Ondokole, Ayi Katonda, kubanga amazzi gandi mu bulago.
2 I am sunk in deep mire, where there is no standing; I am come into deep waters, and the flood overwhelmeth me.
Ntubira mu bitosi nga sirina we nnywereza kigere. Ntuuse ebuziba n’amataba gansaanikira.
3 I am weary of my crying; my throat is dried; mine eyes fail while I wait for my God.
Ndajanye ne nkoowa, n’emimiro ginkaze. Amaaso ganzizeeko ekifu gakooye olw’okutunula enkaliriza nga nnindirira Katonda wange.
4 They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head; they that would cut me off, being mine enemies wrongfully, are many; should I restore that which I took not away?
Abo abankyayira obwereere bangi okusinga enviiri ez’oku mutwe gwange; abalabe bange bangi abannoonya okunzita awatali nsonga; ne mpalirizibwa mbaddizeewo ekyo kye sibbanga.
5 O God, Thou knowest my folly; and my trespasses are not hid from Thee.
Ayi Katonda, omanyi obusirusiru bwange, n’okusobya kwange tekukukwekeddwa.
6 Let not them that wait for Thee be ashamed through me, O Lord GOD of hosts; let not those that seek Thee be brought to confusion through me, O God of Israel.
Sisaana kuswaza abo abakwesiga, Ayi Mukama, Mukama ow’Eggye. Abo abakunoonya baleme kuswazibwa ku lwange, Ayi Katonda wa Isirayiri.
7 Because for Thy sake I have borne reproach; confusion hath covered my face.
Ngumiikirizza okuvumwa ku lulwo, n’amaaso gange ne gajjula ensonyi.
8 I am become a stranger unto my brethren, and an alien unto my mother's children.
Nfuuse nga omugwira eri baganda bange, munnaggwanga eri abaana ba mmange.
9 Because zeal for Thy house hath eaten me up, and the reproaches of them that reproach Thee are fallen upon me.
Nzijudde obuggya olw’ennyumba yo, n’abo abakuvuma bavuma nze.
10 And I wept with my soul fasting, and that became unto me a reproach.
Bwe nkaaba ne nsiiba, ekyo nakyo ne kinvumisa.
11 I made sackcloth also my garment, and I became a byword unto them.
Bwe nnyambala ebibukutu ne nfuuka eky’okuzanyisa kyabwe.
12 They that sit in the gate talk of me; and I am the song of the drunkards.
Abo abatuula ku mulyango gw’ekibuga banduulira, era nfuuse luyimba lw’abatamiivu.
13 But as for me, let my prayer be unto Thee, O LORD, in an acceptable time; O God, in the abundance of Thy mercy, answer me with the truth of Thy salvation.
Naye nze, Ayi Mukama, nsaba ggwe, mu kiseera eky’ekisa kyo. Olw’okwagala kwo okungi, onnyanukule, Ayi Katonda, ondokole nga bwe wasuubiza.
14 Deliver me out of the mire, and let me not sink; let me be delivered from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters.
Onnyinyulule mu ttosi nneme okutubira; omponye abankyawa, onzigye mu mazzi amangi;
15 Let not the waterflood overwhelm me, neither let the deep swallow me up; and let not the pit shut her mouth upon me.
amataba galeme okumbuutikira n’obuziba okunsanyaawo, n’ennyanja ereme okummira.
16 Answer me, O LORD, for Thy mercy is good; according to the multitude of Thy compassions turn Thou unto me.
Onnyanukule, Ayi Mukama olw’obulungi bw’okwagala kwo; onkyukire olw’okusaasira kwo okungi.
17 And hide not Thy face from Thy servant; for I am in distress; answer me speedily.
Tokisa muddu wo maaso go; yanguwa okunziramu, kubanga ndi mu kabi.
18 Draw nigh unto my soul, and redeem it; ransom me because of mine enemies.
Onsemberere onziruukirire, onnunule mu balabe bange.
19 Thou knowest my reproach, and my shame, and my confusion; mine adversaries are all before Thee.
Omanyi bwe nsekererwa, ne bwe nswazibwa ne bwe siteekebwamu kitiibwa, era n’abalabe bange bonna obamanyi.
20 Reproach hath broken my heart; and I am sore sick; and I looked for some to show compassion, but there was none; and for comforters, but I found none.
Okusekererwa kunkutudde omutima era kummazeemu amaanyi. Nanoonya okusaasirwa ne kumbula, n’ow’okumpooyawooya naye nga simulaba.
21 Yea, they put poison into my food; and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.
Mu kifo ky’emmere bampa mususa, era bwe nalumwa ennyonta bampa nkaatu.
22 Let their table before them become a snare; and when they are in peace, let it become a trap.
Emmere yaabwe gye bategese okulya ebafuukire ekyambika, n’embaga zaabwe ez’ebiweebwayo zibafuukire omutego.
23 Let their eyes be darkened, that they see not; and make their loins continually to totter.
Amaaso gaabwe gazibe baleme okulaba, n’emigongo gyabwe gyewetenga ennaku zonna.
24 Pour out Thine indignation upon them, and let the fierceness of Thine anger overtake them.
Bayiweeko ekiruyi kyo, obamalewo n’obusungu obw’amaanyi go obungi.
25 Let their encampment be desolate; let none dwell in their tents.
Ebifo byabwe bifuuke bifulukwa, waleme kubaawo n’omu abeera mu weema zaabwe.
26 For they persecute him whom Thou hast smitten; and they tell of the pain of those whom Thou hast wounded.
Kubanga bayigganya oyo gw’ofumise, ne boogera ku bulumi bw’oyo gw’olumizza.
27 Add iniquity unto their iniquity; and let them not come into Thy righteousness.
Bavunaane omusango kina gumu, era tobaganya kugabana ku bulokozi bwo.
28 Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, and not be written with the righteous.
Bawanduukululwe mu kitabo ky’obulamu; baleme kulabika ku lukalala lw’abatuukirivu.
29 But I am afflicted and in pain; let Thy salvation, O God, set me up on high.
Ndi mu bulumi era mu nnaku; obulokozi bwo, Ayi Katonda, bunkuume.
30 I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify Him with thanksgiving.
Nnaatenderezanga erinnya lya Katonda nga nnyimba; nnaamugulumizanga n’okwebaza.
31 And it shall please the LORD better than a bullock that hath horns and hoofs.
Kino kinaasanyusanga Mukama okusinga okumuwa ente ennume, oba okumuwa seddume n’amayembe gaayo, n’ebigere byayo.
32 The humble shall see it, and be glad; ye that seek after God, let your heart revive.
Abaavu banaakirabanga ne basanyuka; mmwe abanoonya Katonda omutima gwammwe ne gubeera omulamu.
33 For the LORD hearkeneth unto the needy, and despiseth not His prisoners.
Kubanga Mukama awulira abo abali mu kwetaaga, era ababe ne bwe baba mu busibe, tabanyooma.
34 Let heaven and earth praise Him, the seas, and every thing that moveth therein.
Kale eggulu n’ensi bimutenderezenga awamu n’ennyanja zonna n’ebyo ebizirimu.
35 For God will save Zion, and build the cities of Judah; and they shall abide there, and have it in possession.
Kubanga Katonda alirokola Sayuuni, n’ebibuga bya Yuda n’abizimba buggya, abantu ne babibeerangamu nga byabwe.
36 The seed also of His servants shall inherit it; and they that love His name shall dwell therein.
Abaana b’abaweereza be balikisikira; n’abo abaagala erinnya lya Mukama omwo mmwe banaabeeranga.
