< Psalms 41 >
1 To the Overseer. — A Psalm of David. O the happiness of him Who is acting wisely unto the poor, In a day of evil doth Jehovah deliver him.
Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Alina omukisa asaasira omunaku; Mukama amulokola ku lunaku olw’akabi.
2 Jehovah doth preserve him and revive him, He is happy in the land, And Thou givest him not into the will of his enemies.
Mukama anaamukuumanga anaawonyanga obulamu bwe, era anaamuwanga omukisa mu nsi; n’atamuwaayo eri okwegomba kw’abalabe be.
3 Jehovah supporteth on a couch of sickness, All his bed Thou hast turned in his weakness.
Mukama anaamujjanjabanga nga mulwadde; n’amuwonya mu bulumi.
4 I — I said, 'O Jehovah, favour me, Heal my soul, for I did sin against Thee,'
Nayogera nti, “Ayi Mukama onsaasire omponye; kubanga nnyonoonye mu maaso go.”
5 Mine enemies say evil of me: When he dieth — his name hath perished!
Abalabe bange boogeza obukyayi nti, “Alifa ddi n’okwerabirwa ne yeerabirwa?”
6 And if he came to see — vanity he speaketh, His heart gathereth iniquity to itself, He goeth out — at the street he speaketh.
Bwe bajja okundaba beefuula mikwano gyange; naye munda yaabwe bankyawa era basanyuka okulaba nga ngalamidde awo nnumwa. Bwe bansiibula bagenda beesekera nga bwe baduula.
7 All hating me whisper together against me, Against me they devise evil to me:
Abalabe bange bonna abo bateesa mu kaama; nga banjogerako ebitali birungi.
8 A thing of Belial is poured out on him, And because he lay down he riseth not again.
Boogera nti, “Endwadde emukutte mbi nnyo, emukubye wansi tayinza kuwona.”
9 Even mine ally, in whom I trusted, One eating my bread, made great the heel against me,
Era ne mukwano gwange gwe neesiganga bwe twalyanga, anneefuukidde.
10 And Thou, Jehovah, favour me, And cause me to rise, And I give recompence to them.
Naye ggwe, Ayi Mukama, onsaasire, onzizeemu amaanyi ndyoke nneesasuze.
11 By this I have known, That Thou hast delighted in me, Because my enemy shouteth not over me.
Mmanyi ng’onsanyukira, kubanga omulabe wange tampangudde.
12 As to me, in mine integrity, Thou hast taken hold upon me, And causest me to stand before Thee to the age.
Onnywezezza mu bwesimbu bwange, ne mbeera mu maaso go ennaku zonna.
13 Blessed [is] Jehovah, God of Israel, From the age — and unto the age. Amen and Amen.
Atenderezebwenga Mukama Katonda wa Isirayiri, oyo eyabaawo okuva edda n’edda lyonna n’okutuusa emirembe gyonna.
