Psalms 140

1 to/for to conduct melody to/for David to rescue me LORD from man bad: evil from man violence to watch me

Ya mukulu w’okuyimba. Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Omponye abakola ebibi, Ayi Mukama, omponye abantu abakambwe;

2 which to devise: devise distress: evil in/on/with heart all day: always to quarrel battle

abateesa mu mitima gyabwe okukola ebibi; abanoonya entalo buli kiseera.

3 to sharpen tongue their like serpent rage viper underneath: under lips their (Selah)

Ebigambo byabwe byogi ng’ennimi z’emisota; ebiva mu kamwa kaabwe busagwa ng’obw’essalambwa.

4 to keep: guard me LORD from hand wicked from man violence to watch me which to devise: devise to/for to thrust beat my

Onkuume abakola ebibi baleme okunkwatako, Ayi Mukama; omponye abantu abakambwe abateesa okunkyamya.

5 to hide proud snare to/for me and cord to spread net to/for hand: to track snare to set: make to/for me (Selah)

Abantu ab’amalala banteze omutego; banjuluzza ekitimba kyabwe; ne batega emitego mu kkubo lyange.

6 to say to/for LORD God my you(m. s.) to listen [emph?] LORD voice supplication my

Nagamba Mukama nti, “Ggwe oli Katonda wange.” Wulira okwegayirira kwange, onsaasire, Ayi Mukama!

Ayi Mukama, Mukama wange, ggw’omponya n’amaanyi go, ggwe engabo yange mu lutalo.

Ayi Mukama, abakola ebibi tobawa bye beetaaga, era tokkiriza ntekateeka zaabwe kutuukirira; baleme kuba na malala wadde okwenyumiriza.

9 head surrounds my trouble lips their (to cover them *Q(K)*)

Abanneetoolodde baleke enkwe zaabwe zibeekyusizeeko baboneebone.

10 (to shake *Q(K)*) upon them coal in/on/with fire to fall: fall them in/on/with flood not to arise: rise

Amanda agaaka omuliro gabagwire; basuulibwe mu muliro, bakasukibwe mu bunnya obutakoma mwe bataliva emirembe gyonna.

11 man tongue not to establish: establish in/on/with land: country/planet man violence bad: evil to hunt him to/for thrust

Abatuukirivu banaakutenderezanga, era w’oli we banaabeeranga.
