Psalms 84
1 “For the leader of the music. On the Gittith. A psalm of the sons of Korah.” How lovely are thy tabernacles, O LORD of hosts!
Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Zabbuli ya Batabani ba Koola. Eweema zo nga nnungi, Ayi Mukama ow’Eggye!
2 My soul longeth, yea, fainteth, for the courts of the LORD; My heart and my flesh cry aloud for the living God.
Omwoyo gwange guyaayaana, gwagala na kuzirika, olw’empya za Mukama, omutima gwange n’omubiri gwange bikoowoola Katonda omulamu.
3 The very sparrow findeth an abode, And the swallow a nest, where they may lay their young, By thine altars, O LORD 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 Happy they who dwell in thy house, Who are continually praising thee! (Pause)
Balina omukisa ababeera mu nnyumba yo, banaakutenderezanga.
5 Happy the man whose glory is in thee, In whose heart are the ways [[to Jerusalem]]!
Alina omukisa omuntu eyeesiga amaanyi go, era assaayo omwoyo okutambulira mu makubo go.
6 Passing through the valley of Baca, they make it a fountain; and the early rain covereth it with blessings.
Bayita mu kiwonvu Baka, ne bakifuula ekifo ky’ensulo; n’enkuba ya ddumbi n’ejjuza ebidiba byakyo.
7 They go on from strength to strength; Every one of them appeareth before God in Zion.
Bagenda beeyongera amaanyi, okutuusa lwe batuuka mu maaso ga Katonda mu Sayuuni.
8 Hear my prayer, O LORD, God of hosts! Give ear, O God of Jacob! (Pause)
Wulira okusaba kwange, Ayi Mukama Katonda ow’Eggye; mpuliriza, Ayi Katonda wa Yakobo.
9 Look down, O God! our shield, And behold the face of thine anointed!
Ayi Katonda, Engabo yaffe, tunuulira kabaka wo n’okusaasira oyo gwe wafukako amafuta.
10 For a day spent in thy courts is better than a thousand: I would rather stand on the threshold of the house of my God, Than 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 the LORD God is a sun and a shield; The LORD giveth grace and glory; No good thing doth he withhold From them that walk uprightly.
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 O LORD of hosts! Happy the man who trusteth in thee!
Ayi Mukama ow’Eggye alina omukisa omuntu akwesiga.
