< Psalms 85 >
1 “For the leader of the music. A psalm of the sons of Korah.” O LORD! thou hast been favorable to thy land; Thou hast brought back the captives of Jacob;
Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Zabbuli ya Batabani ba Koola. Ensi yo ogikoledde ebyekisa Ayi Mukama; Yakobo omuddizza ebibye.
2 Thou didst forgive the iniquity of thy people, And cover all their sins! (Pause)
Abantu bo obasonyiye ebyonoono byabwe, n’ebibi byabwe byonna n’obibikkako.
3 Thou didst take away all thy displeasure, And abate the fierceness of thy wrath.
Ekiruyi kyo kyonna okirese, n’oleka n’obusungu bwo obubuubuuka.
4 Restore us, O God of our salvation! And let thine anger towards us cease!
Tukomyewo gy’oli, Ayi Katonda w’obulokozi bwaffe, oleke okutusunguwalira.
5 Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? Wilt thou continue thy wrath from generation to generation?
Onootusunguwaliranga emirembe gyonna? Onootunyiigiranga emirembe n’emirembe?
6 Wilt thou not revive us again, That thy people may rejoice in thee?
Tolituzaamu ndasi, abantu bo basanyukirenga mu ggwe?
7 Show us thy compassion, O LORD! And grant us thy salvation!
Tulage okwagala kwo okutaggwaawo Ayi Katonda, era otuwe obulokozi bwo.
8 I will hear what God the LORD will speak: Truly he will speak peace to his people, and to his servants; Only let them not turn again to folly!
Nnaawulirizanga Mukama Katonda by’agamba; asuubiza abantu be, be batukuvu be, okubawa emirembe; naye tebaddayo mu byonoono byabwe.
9 Yea, his salvation is near to those who fear him, That glory may dwell in our land.
Ddala ddala obulokozi bwe busemberera abo abamutya, ensi yaffe n’eryoka ejjula ekitiibwa kye.
10 Mercy and truth shall meet together, Righteousness and peace shall kiss each other;
Okwagala n’obwesigwa bisisinkanye; obutuukirivu n’emirembe binywegeraganye.
11 Truth shall spring out of the earth; Righteousness shall look down from heaven.
Obwesigwa bulose mu nsi, n’obutukuvu ne butunuulira ensi nga businzira mu ggulu.
12 Yea, Jehovah will give prosperity, And our land shall yield her increase.
Ddala ddala Katonda anaatuwanga ebirungi, n’ensi yaffe eneebalanga ebibala bingi.
13 Righteousness shall go before him, And set us in the way of his steps.
Obutuukirivu bunaamukulemberanga, era bunaateekateekanga ekkubo mw’anaayitanga.
