< Psalms 72 >

1 By Solomon. O God, Thy judgments to the king give, And Thy righteousness to the king's son.
Zabbuli ya Sulemaani. Ayi Katonda, kabaka omuwe okuba omwenkanya, ne mutabani we omuwe obutuukirivu,
2 He judgeth Thy people with righteousness, And Thy poor with judgment.
alyoke alamulenga abantu bo mu butuukirivu, n’abaavu abalamulenga mu mazima.
3 The mountains bear peace to the people, And the heights by righteousness.
Ensozi zireeterenga abantu bo okukulaakulana n’obusozi bubaleetere obutuukirivu.
4 He judgeth the poor of the people, Giveth deliverance to the sons of the needy, And bruiseth the oppressor.
Anaalwaniriranga abaavu, n’atereeza abaana b’abo abeetaaga, n’omujoozi n’amusaanyaawo.
5 They fear Thee with the sun, and before the moon, Generation — generations.
Abantu bakutyenga ng’enjuba n’omwezi gye bikoma okwaka mu mirembe gyonna.
6 He cometh down as rain on mown grass, As showers — sprinkling the earth.
Abeere ng’enkuba bw’etonnya ku muddo ogusaliddwa, afaanane ng’oluwandaggirize olufukirira ensi.
7 Flourish in his days doth the righteous, And abundance of peace till the moon is not.
Obutuukirivu bweyongere nnyo mu mulembe gwe, n’okufuga kwe kujjule emirembe okutuusa omwezi lwe gulikoma okwaka!
8 And he ruleth from sea unto sea, And from the river unto the ends of earth.
Afugenga okuva ku nnyanja okutuuka ku nnyanja, n’okuva ku mugga Fulaati okutuuka ku nkomerero z’ensi!
9 Before him bow do the inhabitants of the dry places, And his enemies lick the dust.
Ebika eby’omu malungu bimugonderenga, n’abalabe be bamujeemulukukire beekulukuunye ne mu nfuufu.
10 Kings of Tarshish and of the isles send back a present. Kings of Sheba and Seba a reward bring near.
Bakabaka b’e Talusiisi n’ab’oku bizinga eby’ewala bamuwenga omusolo; bakabaka b’e Syeba n’ab’e Seeba bamutonerenga ebirabo.
11 And all kings do bow themselves to him, All nations do serve him,
Bakabaka bonna banaavuunamanga mu maaso ge; amawanga gonna ganaamuweerezanga.
12 For he delivereth the needy who crieth, And the poor when he hath no helper,
Kubanga anaawonyanga eyeetaaga bw’anaamukoowoolanga, n’omwavu ne kateeyamba ataliiko mwasirizi.
13 He hath pity on the poor and needy, And the souls of the needy he saveth,
Anaasaasiranga omunafu n’omwavu; n’awonya obulamu bwa kateeyamba.
14 From fraud and from violence he redeemeth their soul, And precious is their blood in his eyes.
Anaabanunulanga mu mikono gy’omujoozi n’abawonya obukambwe bwe; kubanga obulamu bwabwe bwa muwendo mungi gy’ali.
15 And he liveth, and giveth to him of the gold of Sheba, And prayeth for him continually, All the day he doth bless him.
Awangaale! Aleeterwe zaabu okuva e Syeba. Abantu bamwegayiririrenga era bamusabirenga emikisa buli lunaku.
16 There is a handful of corn in the earth, On the top of mountains, Shake like Lebanon doth its fruit, And they flourish out of the city as the herb of the earth.
Eŋŋaano ebale nnyingi nnyo mu nsi, ebikke n’entikko z’ensozi. Ebibala byayo byale ng’eby’e Lebanooni; n’abantu baale mu bibuga ng’omuddo ogw’oku ttale.
17 His name is to the age, Before the sun is his name continued, And they bless themselves in him, All nations do pronounce him happy.
Erinnya lye libeerengawo ennaku zonna, n’okwatiikirira kwe kube kwa nkalakkalira ng’enjuba. Amawanga gonna ganaaweebwanga omukisa ku lu lw’erinnya lye, era abantu bonna bamuyitenga aweereddwa omukisa.
18 Blessed is Jehovah God, God of Israel, He alone is doing wonders,
Mukama Katonda agulumizibwe, Katonda wa Isirayiri, oyo yekka akola ebyewuunyisa.
19 And blessed [is] the Name of His honour to the age, And the whole earth is filled [with] His honour. Amen, and amen!
Erinnya lye ekkulu ligulumizibwenga emirembe n’emirembe! Ensi yonna ejjule ekitiibwa kye.
20 The prayers of David son of Jesse have been ended.
Okusaba kwa Dawudi mutabani wa Yese kukomye awo.
