Psalms 22
1 For the end, concerning the morning aid, a Psalm of David. O God, my God, attend to me: why have you forsaken me? the account of my transgressions is far from my salvation.
Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Katonda wange, Katonda wange, lwaki onjabulidde? Lwaki ogaana okunnyamba wadde okuwuliriza okwaziirana kwange?
2 O my God, I will cry to you by day, but you will not hear: and by night, and [it shall] not [be accounted] for folly to me.
Ayi Katonda wange, emisana nkukoowoola, naye tonnyanukula; n’ekiro bwe ntyo, naye siweerako.
3 But you, the praise of Israel, dwell in a sanctuary.
Songa ggwe Mutukuvu atudde ku Ntebe, era ettendo lya Isirayiri yonna.
4 Our fathers hoped in you; they hoped, and you did deliver them.
Bajjajjaffe baakwesiganga; baakwesiga naawe n’obawonya.
5 They cried to you, and were saved: they hoped in you, and were not ashamed.
Baakukoowoolanga n’obalokola; era baakwesiganga ne batajulirira.
6 But I am a worm, and not a man; a reproach of men, and scorn of the people.
Naye nze ndi lusiriŋŋanyi, siri muntu; abantu bampisaamu amaaso, n’abalala bannyooma.
7 All that saw me mocked me: they spoke with [their] lips, they shook the head, [saying],
Bonna abandaba banduulira, era banvuma nga bwe banyeenyeza omutwe nga bagamba nti,
8 He hoped in the Lord: let him deliver him, let him save him, because he takes pleasure in him.
“Yeesiga Mukama; kale amuwonye. Obanga Mukama amwagala, kale nno amulokole!”
9 For you are he that drew me out of the womb; my hope from my mother's breasts.
Naye ggwe wanziggya mu lubuto lwa mmange, era wampa okukwesiga ne mu buto bwange bwonna nga nkyayonka.
10 I was cast on you from the womb: you are my God from my mother's belly.
Olwazaalibwa ne nteekebwa mu mikono gyo; olwava mu lubuto lwa mmange n’obeera Katonda wange.
11 Stand not aloof from me; for affliction is near; for there is no helper.
Tobeera wala nange, kubanga emitawaana ginsemberedde, ate nga tewali mulala n’omu asobola kunnyamba.
12 Many bullocks have compassed me: fat bulls have beset me round.
Zisseddume nnyingi zinneetoolodde, zisseddume enkambwe ez’e Basani zinzingizizza.
13 They have opened their mouth against me, as a ravening and roaring lion.
Banjasamiza akamwa kaabwe ng’empologoma bw’ewuluguma ng’etaagulataagula omuyiggo gwayo.
14 I am poured out like water, and all my bones are loosened: my heart in the midst of my belly is become like melting wax.
Ngiyiddwa ng’amazzi, n’amagumba gange gasowose mu nnyingo zaago. Omutima gwange guli ng’obubaane, era gusaanuukidde mu mubiri gwange.
15 My strength is dried up, like a potsherd; and my tongue is glued to my throat; and you have brought me down to the dust of death.
Amaanyi gampweddemu, gakaze ng’oluggyo; n’olulimi lwange lukutte waggulu mu kibuno kyange. Ondese awo mu nfuufu ng’omufu.
16 For many dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked doers has beset me round: they pierced my hands and my feet.
Abantu ababi banneetoolodde; banneebunguludde ng’embwa ennyingi; banfumise ne bawummula ebibatu byange n’ebigere byange.
17 They counted all my bones; and they observed and looked upon me.
Amagumba gansowose nnyinza n’okugabala. Abalabe bange bantunuulira nga bannyoomoola.
18 They parted my garments [among] themselves, and cast lots upon my raiment.
Bagabana engoye zange; era ekyambalo kyange bakikubira akalulu.
19 But you, O Lord, remove not my help afar off: be ready for mine aid.
Naye ggwe, Ayi Mukama, tobeera wala nange. Ggwe, Amaanyi gange, yanguwa okunnyamba!
20 Deliver my soul from the sword; my only-begotten one from the power of the dog.
Omponye okuttibwa n’ekitala; obulamu bwange obw’omuwendo butaase mu maanyi g’embwa!
21 Save me from the lion's mouth; and [regard] my lowliness from the horns of the unicorns.
Nzigya mu kamwa k’empologoma, omponye amayembe g’embogo enkambwe.
22 I will declare your name to my brethren: in the midst of the church will I sing praise to you.
Nnaategezanga ku linnya lyo mu booluganda; nnaakutenderezanga mu kibiina ky’abantu.
23 You that fear the Lord, praise him; all you seed of Jacob, glorify him: let all the seed of Israel fear him.
Mmwe abatya Mukama, mumutenderezenga. Abaana ba Yakobo mwenna mumugulumizenga; era mumussengamu ekitiibwa nga mumutya, mmwe abaana ba Isirayiri mwenna.
24 For he has not despised nor been angry at the supplication of the poor; nor turned away his face from me; but when I cried to him, he heard me.
Kubanga tanyooma kwaziirana kw’abo abali mu nnaku, era tabeekweka, wabula abaanukula bwe bamukoowoola.
25 My praise is of you in the great congregation: I will pay my vows before them that fear him.
Mu ggwe mwe muva ettendo lyange mu kibiina ekinene, ne nkutendereza olw’ebyo by’onkoledde. Obweyamo bwange nnaabutuukirizanga mu maaso gaabo abakutya.
26 The poor shall eat and be satisfied; and they shall praise the Lord that seek him: their heart shall live for ever.
Abaavu banaalyanga ne bakkuta, abo abanoonya Mukama banaamutenderezanga. Emitima gyabwe ginaajaguzanga emirembe gyonna.
27 All the ends of the earth shall remember and turn to the Lord: and all the kindred of the nations shall worship before him.
Ensi zonna zirijjukira ne zikyukira Mukama, ebika byonna eby’amawanga gonna birimuvuunamira.
28 For the kingdom is the Lord's; and he is the governor of the nations.
Kubanga obwakabaka bwonna bwa Mukama, era y’afuga amawanga gonna.
29 All the fat ones of the earth have eaten and worshipped: all that go down to the earth shall fall down before him: my soul also lives to him.
Abagagga bonna ab’omu nsi balirya embaga, ne bamusinza. Bonna abagenda mu nfuufu, balimufukaamirira, abatakyali balamu.
30 And my seed shall serve him: the generation that is coming shall be reported to the Lord.
Ezadde lyabwe lirimuweereza; abaliddawo balibuulirwa ekigambo kya Mukama.
31 And they shall report his righteousness to the people that shall be born, whom the Lord has made.
N’abo abatannazaalibwa balibuulirwa obutuukirivu bwe nti, “Ekyo yakikoze.”
