Psalms 72
1 “By Solomon.” O God, give unto the king thy decisions, and thy righteousness unto the king's son.
Zabbuli ya Sulemaani. Ayi Katonda, kabaka omuwe okuba omwenkanya, ne mutabani we omuwe obutuukirivu,
2 He shall decide for thy people with righteousness, and for thy afflicted with justice.
alyoke alamulenga abantu bo mu butuukirivu, n’abaavu abalamulenga mu mazima.
3 The mountains shall bear peace for the people, and the hills [the same], through righteousness.
Ensozi zireeterenga abantu bo okukulaakulana n’obusozi bubaleetere obutuukirivu.
4 He shall judge the afflicted of the people, he shall give help to the children of the needy; but he shall crush the oppressor.
Anaalwaniriranga abaavu, n’atereeza abaana b’abo abeetaaga, n’omujoozi n’amusaanyaawo.
5 They shall fear thee as long as the sun shineth, and in the presence of the moon, throughout all generations.
Abantu bakutyenga ng’enjuba n’omwezi gye bikoma okwaka mu mirembe gyonna.
6 He shall come down like rain upon the mown grass, as showers which are dropping on the earth.
Abeere ng’enkuba bw’etonnya ku muddo ogusaliddwa, afaanane ng’oluwandaggirize olufukirira ensi.
7 In his days shall the righteous flourish; and abundance of peace [shall be] till the moon shall be no more.
Obutuukirivu bweyongere nnyo mu mulembe gwe, n’okufuga kwe kujjule emirembe okutuusa omwezi lwe gulikoma okwaka!
8 And he shall have dominion from sea to sea, and from the river unto the ends of the earth.
Afugenga okuva ku nnyanja okutuuka ku nnyanja, n’okuva ku mugga Fulaati okutuuka ku nkomerero z’ensi!
9 Before him shall bend down those that dwell in the wilderness; and his enemies shall lick the dust.
Ebika eby’omu malungu bimugonderenga, n’abalabe be bamujeemulukukire beekulukuunye ne mu nfuufu.
10 The kings of Tharshish and of the isles shall bring presents: the kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts.
Bakabaka b’e Talusiisi n’ab’oku bizinga eby’ewala bamuwenga omusolo; bakabaka b’e Syeba n’ab’e Seeba bamutonerenga ebirabo.
11 Yea, there shall bow down before him all kings: all nations shall serve him.
Bakabaka bonna banaavuunamanga mu maaso ge; amawanga gonna ganaamuweerezanga.
12 For he will deliver the needy when he crieth; the afflicted also, who hath no helper.
Kubanga anaawonyanga eyeetaaga bw’anaamukoowoolanga, n’omwavu ne kateeyamba ataliiko mwasirizi.
13 He will spare the poor and needy; and the souls of the needy will he assist.
Anaasaasiranga omunafu n’omwavu; n’awonya obulamu bwa kateeyamba.
14 From wrong and violence will he deliver their soul; and precious shall their blood be in his eyes.
Anaabanunulanga mu mikono gy’omujoozi n’abawonya obukambwe bwe; kubanga obulamu bwabwe bwa muwendo mungi gy’ali.
15 And he shall live; and he will give him of the gold of Sheba: and he will pray in his behalf continually; all the time will he bless him.
Awangaale! Aleeterwe zaabu okuva e Syeba. Abantu bamwegayiririrenga era bamusabirenga emikisa buli lunaku.
16 There shall be an abundance of corn in the land; upon the top of the mountains its fruit shall shake like [the trees of] Lebanon; and [men] shall blossom out of the city like herbs of the earth.
Eŋŋaano ebale nnyingi nnyo mu nsi, ebikke n’entikko z’ensozi. Ebibala byayo byale ng’eby’e Lebanooni; n’abantu baale mu bibuga ng’omuddo ogw’oku ttale.
17 His name will endure for ever; in the presence of the sun his name shall flourish: and men shall bless themselves with him: all nations shall call him happy.
Erinnya lye libeerengawo ennaku zonna, n’okwatiikirira kwe kube kwa nkalakkalira ng’enjuba. Amawanga gonna ganaaweebwanga omukisa ku lu lw’erinnya lye, era abantu bonna bamuyitenga aweereddwa omukisa.
18 Blessed be the Lord the God, the God of Israel, who alone doth wondrous things.
Mukama Katonda agulumizibwe, Katonda wa Isirayiri, oyo yekka akola ebyewuunyisa.
19 And blessed he his glorious name for ever; and with his glory may the whole earth be filled: Amen, and Amen.
Erinnya lye ekkulu ligulumizibwenga emirembe n’emirembe! Ensi yonna ejjule ekitiibwa kye.
20 Here are ended the prayers of David the son of Jesse.
Okusaba kwa Dawudi mutabani wa Yese kukomye awo.
