Psalms 84
1 [For the Chief Musician. On an instrument of Gath. A Psalm by the sons of Korah.] How lovely are your dwellings, Jehovah of hosts.
Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Zabbuli ya Batabani ba Koola. Eweema zo nga nnungi, Ayi Mukama ow’Eggye!
2 My soul longs, yes, yearns for the courts of Jehovah. My heart and my flesh cry out for the living God.
Omwoyo gwange guyaayaana, gwagala na kuzirika, olw’empya za Mukama, omutima gwange n’omubiri gwange bikoowoola Katonda omulamu.
3 Yes, the sparrow has found a home, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may have her young, near your altars, Jehovah of hosts, my King, and my God.
Weewaawo, ne nkazaluggya yeekoledde ekisu, n’akataayi ennyumba mwe binaakulizanga abaana baabyo awo okumpi n’Ebyoto byo, Ayi Mukama Ayinzabyonna, Kabaka wange, era Katonda wange.
4 Blessed are those who dwell in your house. They are ever praising you. (Selah)
Balina omukisa ababeera mu nnyumba yo, banaakutenderezanga.
5 Blessed are those whose strength is in you, who have set their hearts on a pilgrimage.
Alina omukisa omuntu eyeesiga amaanyi go, era assaayo omwoyo okutambulira mu makubo go.
6 Passing through the Valley of Baca, he makes it into a spring. Yes, the autumn rain covers it with blessings.
Bayita mu kiwonvu Baka, ne bakifuula ekifo ky’ensulo; n’enkuba ya ddumbi n’ejjuza ebidiba byakyo.
7 They go from strength to strength. Everyone of them appears before God in Zion.
Bagenda beeyongera amaanyi, okutuusa lwe batuuka mu maaso ga Katonda mu Sayuuni.
8 Jehovah, the God of hosts, hear my prayer. Listen, God of Jacob. (Selah)
Wulira okusaba kwange, Ayi Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye; mpuliriza, Ayi Katonda wa Yakobo.
9 Look, God our shield, look at the face of your anointed.
Ayi Katonda, Engabo yaffe, tunuulira kabaka wo n’okusaasira oyo gwe wafukako amafuta.
10 For a day in your courts is better than a thousand. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.
Okumala olunaku olumu mu mpya zo, kisinga okubeera emyaka olukumi mu bifo ebirala. Njagala okuba omuggazi mu nnyumba ya Katonda wange, okusinga okubeeranga mu weema z’abakola ebibi.
11 For Jehovah God is a sun and a shield. Jehovah will give grace and glory. He withholds no good thing from those who walk blamelessly.
Kubanga Mukama Katonda ye njuba yaffe era ye ngabo yaffe; atuwa emikisa gye awamu n’ekitiibwa; tewaliiwo kirungi na kimu ky’ataawa abo abatambulira mu makubo ge nga tebaliiko kyakunenyezebwa.
12 Jehovah of hosts, blessed is the man who trusts in you.
Ayi Mukama ow’Eggye alina omukisa omuntu akwesiga.
