Psalms 21

1 [For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.] The king rejoices in your strength, YHWH. How greatly he rejoices in your salvation.

Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Ayi Mukama, kabaka ajaguliza mu maanyi go. Obuwanguzi bw’omuwadde nga bumuleetedde essanyu lingi!

2 You have given him his heart's desire, and have not withheld the request of his lips. (Selah)

Omuwadde omutima gwe bye gwetaaga, era buli ky’asabye n’akamwa ke tokimummye.

3 For you meet him with the blessings of goodness. You set a crown of fine gold on his head.

Ddala ddala wamwaniriza n’emikisa gyo egijjudde ebirungi, n’omutikkira engule eya zaabu omuka ennyo ku mutwe gwe.

4 He asked life of you, you gave it to him, even length of days forever and ever.

Yakusaba obulamu, era n’obumuwa, ennaku ennyingi ez’emirembe n’emirembe.

5 His glory is great in your salvation. You lay honor and majesty on him.

Obuwanguzi bwe wamuwa bumuleetedde ekitiibwa kinene. Omuwadde ekitiibwa n’oyatiikirira.

6 For you make him most blessed forever. You make him glad with joy in your presence.

Ddala omuwadde emikisa gyo egy’olubeerera, n’omujjuza essanyu ng’oli naye buli kiseera.

7 For the king trusts in YHWH. Through the loving kindness of the Most High, he shall not be moved.

Kubanga kabaka yeesiga Mukama, era olw’okwagala okutaggwaawo okw’oyo Ali Waggulu Ennyo, kabaka tagenda kunyeenyezebwa.

8 Your hand will find out all of your enemies. Your right hand will find all those who hate you.

Omukono gwo guliwamba abalabe bo bonna; omukono gwo ogwa ddyo gulikwata abo abakukyawa.

9 You will make them as a fiery furnace in the time of your anger. YHWH will swallow them up in his wrath. The fire shall devour them.

Bw’olirabika, Ayi Mukama, olibasiriiza n’omuliro ng’ogw’omu kyoto ekyengeredde. Mukama, ng’ajjudde obusungu, alibamira bonna, era alibamalirawo ddala.

10 You will destroy their descendants from the earth, their posterity from among the descendants of Adam.

Olizikiriza ezzadde lyabwe ku nsi, n’abaana baabwe bonna n’obamalawo mu baana b’abantu.

11 Though they intend evil against you, devising a wicked scheme, they will not succeed.

Newaakubadde nga bakusalira enkwe, ne bateekateeka ebikolwa ebibi, kyokka tewali kye basobola kutuukiriza.

12 For you will make them turn their back, when you aim drawn bows at their face.

Balikyuka ne bakudduka bwe baliraba ng’obaleezeemu omutego gwo ogw’obusaale.

13 Be exalted, YHWH, in your strength, so we will sing and praise your power.

Ogulumizibwenga, Ayi Mukama, mu maanyi go. Tunaayimbanga nga tutendereza obuyinza bwo.
