Psalms 97
1 The Lord reigneth: let the earth be glad; let the multitude of isles rejoice.
Mukama afuga; ensi esanyuke, n’embalama eziri ewala zijaguze.
2 Clouds and thick darkness are round about him: righteousness and justice are the support of his throne.
Ebire n’ekizikiza bimwetooloola; obutuukirivu n’obwenkanya gwe musingi gw’entebe y’obwakabaka bwe.
3 A fire goeth before him, and burneth up round about his adversaries.
Omuliro gumukulembera ne gwokya abalabe be ku njuyi zonna.
4 His lightnings give light to the world: the earth seeth it, and trembleth.
Okumyansa kwe kumulisa ensi; ensi n’ekulaba n’ekankana.
5 The mountains melt away like wax at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the Lord of all the earth.
Ensozi zisaanuuka ng’envumbo awali Mukama, mu maaso ga Mukama ow’ensi yonna.
6 The heavens tell of his righteousness, and all the people his glory.
Eggulu lirangirira obutuukirivu bwe; n’abantu bonna ne balaba ekitiibwa kye.
7 Made ashamed shall be all that serve graven images, that boast themselves of idols: unto him bow down all the gods.
Abasinza ebifaananyi ebikole n’emikono bonna baswadde, abo abeenyumiririza mu bifaananyi ebyole. Mumusinze mwe mwenna bakatonda.
8 Zion heareth it, and rejoiceth; and glad are the daughters of Judah, because of thy decrees, O Lord.
Sayuuni akiwulira n’asanyuka, n’ebyalo bya Yuda bijaguza; kubanga ogoberera eby’ensonga, Ayi Katonda.
9 For thou, O Lord, art the most high above all the earth: thou art greatly exalted above all gods.
Kubanga ggwe, Ayi Mukama, oli waggulu nnyo okusinga ensi; ogulumizibwa okusinga bakatonda bonna.
10 Ye that love the Lord, hate ye the evil: he preserveth the souls of his pious ones; out of the hand of the wicked he ever delivereth them.
Abo abaagala Mukama bakyawa ekibi, akuuma obulamu bw’abamwesiga, n’abawonya okuva mu mukono gw’omukozi w’ebibi.
11 Light is sown for the righteous, and joy for the upright in heart.
Omusana gwe gwakira abatuukirivu, n’abalina omutima ogw’amazima bajjula essanyu.
12 Rejoice, ye righteous, in the Lord, and give thanks to his holy memorial.
Musanyukirenga mu Mukama mmwe abatuukirivu, era mwebazenga erinnya lye ettukuvu.
