< Psalms 20 >
1 Yhwh hear thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend thee;
Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Mukama akwanukulenga ng’oli mu buzibu. Erinnya lya Katonda wa Yakobo likukuumenga.
2 Send thee help from the sanctuary, and strengthen thee out of Zion;
Akuweerezenga obuyambi obuva mu kifo kye ekitukuvu; akudduukirirenga okuva ku lusozi Sayuuni.
3 Remember all thy offerings, and accept thy burnt sacrifice; (Selah)
Ajjukirenga ssaddaaka zo zonna z’omuwa, era asiimenga ebiweebwayo byo ebyokebwa.
4 Grant thee according to thine own heart, and fulfil all thy counsel.
Akuwenga omutima gwo bye gwetaaga, era atuukirizenga by’oteekateeka byonna.
5 We will rejoice in thy salvation, and in the name of our God we will set up our banners: Yhwh fulfil all thy petitions.
Tulijaganya olw’obuwanguzi bwo, ne tuwuuba ebendera zaffe mu linnya lya Katonda waffe. Mukama akuwenga byonna by’omusaba.
6 Now know I that Yhwh saveth his anointed; he will hear him from his holy heaven with the saving strength of his right hand.
Kaakano ntegedde nga Mukama awanguza oyo gwe yafukako amafuta, amwanukula ng’amuwa obuwanguzi n’omukono gwe ogwa ddyo, ng’asinziira mu ggulu lye ettukuvu.
7 Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of Yhwh our God.
Abamu beesiga amagaali, n’abalala beesiga embalaasi, naye ffe twesiga erinnya lya Mukama Katonda waffe.
8 They are brought down and fallen: but we are risen, and stand upright.
Batalantuka ne bagwa wansi ne balemerawo, naye ffe tugolokoka ne tuyimirira nga tuli banywevu.
9 Save, Yhwh: let the king hear us when we call.
Ayi Mukama, lokola kabaka, otwanukule bwe tukukoowoola.
