< Psalms 75 >

1 To the Overseer. — 'Destroy not.' — A Psalm of Asaph. — A Song. We have given thanks to Thee, O God, We have given thanks, and near [is] Thy name, They have recounted Thy wonders.
Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Ku ddoboozi, “Tozikiriza.” Zabbuli ya Asafu. Oluyimba. Tukwebaza, Ayi Katonda. Tukwebaza, kubanga Erinnya lyo liri kumpi. Abantu boogera ku bikolwa byo eby’ekyewuunyo.
2 When I receive an appointment, I — I do judge uprightly.
Mukama Katonda oyogera nti, “Neerondera ekiseera kye neetegekera era nsala omusango gwa bwenkanya.
3 Melted is the earth and all its inhabitants, I — I have pondered its pillars. (Selah)
Kyokka newaakubadde ng’ensi eyuuguuma abantu ne beeraliikirira, naye nze nywezezza empagi zaayo.”
4 I have said to the boastful, 'Be not boastful,' And to the wicked, 'Raise not up a horn.'
Nalabula ab’amalala bagaleke, n’ababi bakomye okuyimusa ejjembe lyabwe ng’ery’embogo.
5 Raise not up on high your horn, (Ye speak with a stiff neck.)
Mukomye okuyimusa ejjembe lyammwe eri eggulu n’okwogera nga muduula.
6 For not from the east, or from the west, Nor from the wilderness — [is] elevation.
Kubanga okugulumizibwa tekuva mu ddungu era n’obuyinza tebuva buvanjuba wadde obugwanjuba bw’ensi,
7 But God [is] judge, This He maketh low — and this He lifteth up.
wabula biva eri Katonda; era ye y’agulumiza omu ate n’atoowaza omulala.
8 For a cup [is] in the hand of Jehovah, And the wine hath foamed, It is full of mixture, and He poureth out of it, Only its dregs wring out, and drink, Do all the wicked of the earth,
Mukama akutte mu mukono gwe ekikompe eky’obusungu bwe ekijjudde omwenge ogutabuddwamu ebirungo era kijjudde ejjovu; akifuka, aboonoonyi bonna ku nsi ne bakinywa ne bakimaliramu ddala.
9 And I — I declare [it] to the age, I sing praise to the God of Jacob.
Naye nze nnaatendanga obulungi bwa Mukama; nnaatenderezanga Katonda wa Yakobo ennaku zonna.
10 And all horns of the wicked I cut off, Exalted are the horns of the righteous!
Mukama ayogera nti, Ababi ndibamalamu amaanyi, naye abatuukirivu nnaabongeranga amaanyi.
