Psalms 63
1 A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah. O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;
Zabbuli ya Dawudi, bwe yali mu ddungu lya Yuda. Ayi Katonda, oli Katonda wange, nkunoonya n’omutima gwange gwonna; emmeeme yange ekwetaaga, omubiri gwange gwonna gukuyaayaanira, nga nnina ennyonta ng’ali mu nsi enkalu omutali mazzi.
2 To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary.
Nkulabye ng’oli mu kifo kyo ekitukuvu, ne ndaba amaanyi go n’ekitiibwa kyo.
3 Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee.
Kubanga okwagala kwo okutaggwaawo kusinga obulamu; akamwa kange kanaakutenderezanga.
4 Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.
Bwe ntyo nnaakutenderezanga obulamu bwange bwonna; nnaayimusanga emikono gyange mu linnya lyo.
5 My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips:
Emmeeme yange enekkutanga ebyassava n’obugagga; nnaayimbanga nga nkutendereza n’emimwa egy’essanyu.
6 When I remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night watches.
Nkujjukira nga ndi ku kitanda kyange, era nkufumiitirizaako mu ssaawa ez’ekiro.
7 Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.
Olw’okuba ng’oli mubeezi wange, nnyimba nga ndi mu kisiikirize ky’ebiwaawaatiro byo.
8 My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.
Emmeeme yange yeekwata ku ggwe; omukono gwo ogwa ddyo gumpanirira.
9 But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the lower parts of the earth.
Naye abo abannoonya okunzita balizikirizibwa, baliserengeta emagombe.
10 They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes.
Balisaanawo n’ekitala; ne bafuuka emmere y’ebibe.
11 But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that sweareth by him shall glory: but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.
Naye ye kabaka anaajagulizanga mu Katonda; bonna abalayira mu linnya lya Katonda banaatenderezanga Katonda, naye akamwa k’abalimba kalisirisibwa.
