Psalms 7
1 Shiggaion of David, which he sang unto the LORD, concerning Cush a Benjamite. O LORD my God, in Thee have I taken refuge; save me from all them that pursue me, and deliver me;
Zabbuli ya Dawudi gye yayimbira Mukama ng’efa ku Kuusi Omubenyamini. Ayi Mukama, Katonda wange, neesiga ggwe: ngobaako bonna abangigganya era omponye,
2 Lest he tear my soul like a lion, rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver.
si kulwa nga bantagulataagula ng’empologoma ne bankutulakutula obufiififi ne watabaawo amponya.
3 O LORD my God, if I have done this; if there be iniquity in my hands;
Ayi Mukama, Katonda wange, obanga nkoze kino, era ng’engalo zange ziriko omusango,
4 If I have requited him that did evil unto me, or spoiled mine adversary unto emptiness;
obanga waliwo andaze ebirungi nze ne si muyisa bulungi, oba nzibye omulabe wange awatali nsonga:
5 Let the enemy pursue my soul, and overtake it, and tread my life down to the earth; yea, let him lay my glory in the dust. (Selah)
Kale, abalabe bange baleke bangoberere bankwate, bankube wansi banninnyirire, banzitire mu nfuufu.
6 Arise, O LORD, in Thine anger, lift up Thyself in indignation against mine adversaries; yea, awake for me at the judgment which Thou hast commanded.
Golokoka, Ayi Mukama, mu busungu bwo oziyize abalabe bange abajjudde obukambwe. Golokoka, Ayi Katonda wange, onnyambe ggwe asala omusango mu bwenkanya.
7 And let the congregation of the peoples compass Thee about, and over them return Thou on high.
Kuŋŋaanya bannaggwanga bonna okukwetooloola; obafuge ng’oli waggulu ennyo.
8 O LORD, who ministerest judgment to the peoples, judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness, and according to mine integrity that is in me.
Ggwe, Ayi Mukama, Ali Waggulu Ennyo, asalira amawanga gonna emisango, osale omusango gwange Ayi Mukama Ali Waggulu Ennyo ng’obutuukirivu bwange bwe buli, era n’amazima agali mu nze bwe gali.
9 Oh that a full measure of evil might come upon the wicked, and that Thou wouldest establish the righteous; for the righteous God trieth the heart and reins.
Ayi Katonda omutukuvu, akebera emitima n’emmeeme; okomye ebikolwa by’abakola ebibi: era onyweze abatuukirivu.
10 My shield is with God, who saveth the upright in heart.
Katonda Ali Waggulu Ennyo ye ngabo yange; alokola abo abalina omutima omulongoofu.
11 God is a righteous judge, yea, a God that hath indignation every day:
Katonda mulamuzi wa mazima; era alaga ekiruyi kye buli lunaku.
12 If a man turn not, He will whet His sword, He hath bent His bow, and made it ready;
Mukama awagala ekitala kye n’aleega omutego gwe ogw’obusaale.
13 He hath also prepared for him the weapons of death, yea, His arrows which He made sharp.
Era ategese ebyokulwanyisa ebissi; era akozesa obusaale obw’omuliro.
14 Behold, he travaileth with iniquity; yea, he conceiveth mischief, and bringeth forth falsehood.
Omuntu ajjudde ebibi afuna emitawaana, n’azaala obulimba.
15 He hath digged a pit, and hollowed it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made.
Asima ekinnya, n’akiwanvuya nnyo; ate n’akigwamu ye kye yasimye.
16 His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violence shall come down upon his own pate.
Emitawaana gye gimwebunguludde; n’obukambwe bwe bumuddire.
17 I will give thanks unto the LORD according to His righteousness; and will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High.
Nneebazanga Mukama olw’obutuukirivu bwe; nnaayimbanga nga ntendereza erinnya lya Mukama Ali Waggulu Ennyo.
