Psalms 24

1 David’s. A Melody. To Yahweh, belongeth, The earth and the fulness thereof, The world, and they who dwell therein;

Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Ensi ya Mukama n’ebigirimu byonna, n’ensi zonna n’abo abazibeeramu.

2 For, he, upon the seas, hath founded it, and upon the currents, doth make it firm.

Kubanga yasimba emisingi gyayo mu nnyanja, n’agizimba ku mazzi amangi.

3 Who shall ascend the mountain of Yahweh? And who shall stand in his holy place?

Alyambuka ku lusozi lwa Mukama ye afaanana atya? Era wa ngeri ki aliyingira n’ayimirira mu nnyumba ye entukuvu?

4 The clean of hands, and pure of heart, —who hath not uplifted, to falsehood, his soul, nor sworn deceitfully,

Oyo alina omutima omulongoofu, nga n’emikono gye mirongoofu; atasinza bakatonda abalala, era atalayirira bwereere.

5 Shall bear away a blessing from Yahweh, and righteousness, from his delivering God.

Oyo Mukama anaamuwanga omukisa, n’obutuukirivu okuva eri Katonda ow’obulokozi bwe.

6 This, is the generation of them who inquire of him, who seek thy face, O God of Jacob. (Selah)

Ogwo gwe mulembe gw’abo abakunoonya, Ayi Katonda wa Yakobo.

7 Lift up, O ye gates, your heads, and lift yourselves up, ye age-abiding doors, That the king of glory may come in.

Mweggulewo, mmwe bawankaaki! Muggulwewo, mmwe enzigi ez’edda, Kabaka ow’ekitiibwa ayingire.

8 Who is the king of glory? Yahweh, strong and mighty, Yahweh, mighty in war.

Kabaka ow’ekitiibwa ye ani? Ye Mukama ow’amaanyi era ow’obuyinza, omuwanguzi mu ntalo.

9 Lift up, O ye gates, your heads, yea lift [them] up, ye age-abiding doors, That the king of glory may come in.

Mweggulewo, mmwe bawankaaki, muggulwewo mmwe enzigi ez’edda! Kabaka ow’ekitiibwa ayingire.

10 Who then is the king of glory? Yahweh of hosts, He, is the king of glory. (Selah)

Kabaka ow’ekitiibwa oyo ye ani? Mukama Ayinzabyonna; oyo ye Kabaka ow’ekitiibwa.
