Psalms 7
1 Shiggaion of David, which he sang to the LORD, concerning the words of Cush the Benjaminite. O LORD my God, in thee do I put my trust: save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me:
Zabbuli ya Dawudi gye yayimbira Mukama ng’efa ku Kuusi Omubenyamini. Ayi Mukama, Katonda wange, neesiga ggwe: ngobaako bonna abangigganya era omponye,
2 Lest he tear my soul like a lion, rending [it] in pieces, while [there is] none to deliver.
si kulwa nga bantagulataagula ng’empologoma ne bankutulakutula obufiififi ne watabaawo amponya.
3 O LORD my God, if I have done this; if there is iniquity in my hands;
Ayi Mukama, Katonda wange, obanga nkoze kino, era ng’engalo zange ziriko omusango,
4 If I have rewarded evil to him that was at peace with me; (yes, I have delivered him that without cause is my enemy: )
obanga waliwo andaze ebirungi nze ne si muyisa bulungi, oba nzibye omulabe wange awatali nsonga:
5 Let the enemy persecute my soul, and take [it]; yes, let him tread down my life upon the earth, and lay my honor in the dust. (Selah)
Kale, abalabe bange baleke bangoberere bankwate, bankube wansi banninnyirire, banzitire mu nfuufu.
6 Arise, O LORD, in thy anger, lift up thyself because of the rage of my enemies: and awake for me [to] the judgment [that] thou hast commanded.
Golokoka, Ayi Mukama, mu busungu bwo oziyize abalabe bange abajjudde obukambwe. Golokoka, Ayi Katonda wange, onnyambe ggwe asala omusango mu bwenkanya.
7 So shall the congregation of the people encompass thee: for their sakes therefore return thou on high.
Kuŋŋaanya bannaggwanga bonna okukwetooloola; obafuge ng’oli waggulu ennyo.
8 The LORD shall judge the people: judge me, O LORD, according to my righteousness, and according to my integrity [that is] in me.
Ggwe, Ayi Mukama, Ali Waggulu Ennyo, asalira amawanga gonna emisango, osale omusango gwange Ayi Mukama Ali Waggulu Ennyo ng’obutuukirivu bwange bwe buli, era n’amazima agali mu nze bwe gali.
9 Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end; but establish the just: for the righteous God trieth the hearts and reins.
Ayi Katonda omutukuvu, akebera emitima n’emmeeme; okomye ebikolwa by’abakola ebibi: era onyweze abatuukirivu.
10 My defense [is] from God, who saveth the upright in heart.
Katonda Ali Waggulu Ennyo ye ngabo yange; alokola abo abalina omutima omulongoofu.
11 God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry [with the wicked] every day.
Katonda mulamuzi wa mazima; era alaga ekiruyi kye buli lunaku.
12 If he turn not, he will whet his sword; he hath bent his bow, and made it ready.
Mukama awagala ekitala kye n’aleega omutego gwe ogw’obusaale.
13 He hath also prepared for him the instruments of death; he ordaineth his arrows against the persecutors.
Era ategese ebyokulwanyisa ebissi; era akozesa obusaale obw’omuliro.
14 Behold, he travaileth with iniquity, and hath conceived mischief, and brought forth falsehood.
Omuntu ajjudde ebibi afuna emitawaana, n’azaala obulimba.
15 He made a pit, and digged it, and hath fallen into the ditch [which] he made.
Asima ekinnya, n’akiwanvuya nnyo; ate n’akigwamu ye kye yasimye.
16 His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violent dealing shall come down upon his own pate.
Emitawaana gye gimwebunguludde; n’obukambwe bwe bumuddire.
17 I will praise the LORD according to his righteousness: and will sing praise to the name of the LORD most high.
Nneebazanga Mukama olw’obutuukirivu bwe; nnaayimbanga nga ntendereza erinnya lya Mukama Ali Waggulu Ennyo.
