1 Ebyomumirembe 16
1 Awo ne baleeta essanduuko ya Mukama, ne bagiyingiza mu weema Dawudi gye yali agisimbidde, ne bawaayo ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa n’ebiweebwayo olw’emirembe eri Katonda.
So they brought the ark of God, and set it in the midst of the tent, which David had pitched for it: and they offered holocausts, and peace offerings before God.
2 Awo Dawudi bwe yamala okuwaayo ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa n’ebiweebwayo olw’emirembe, n’asabira abantu omukisa mu linnya lya Mukama,
And when David had made an end of offering holocausts, and peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the Lord.
3 era n’agabira buli Muyisirayiri omusajja n’omukazi, omugaati n’ekitole eky’ezabbibu enkalu, n’ekiyungula ky’ennyama.
And he divided to all and every one, both men and women, a loaf of bread, and a piece of roasted beef, and flour fried with oil.
4 Yalonda abamu ku Baleevi okuweerezanga mu maaso g’essanduuko ya Mukama, okukoowoola nga basaba, nga beebaza, era nga batendereza Mukama, Katonda wa Isirayiri.
And he appointed Levites to minister before the ark of the Lord, and to remember his works, and to glorify, and praise the Lord God of Israel.
5 Asafu ye yali omukulu waabwe, Zekkaliya n’amuddirira, Yeyeeri n’addako, n’oluvannyuma Semiramosi, ne Yekyeri, ne Mattisiya, ne Eriyaabu, ne Benaya, ne Obededomu, ne Yeyeri, abookukuba entongooli n’ennanga, Asafu ye ng’akuba ebitaasa.
Asaph the chief, and next after him Zacharias: moreover Jahiel, and Semiramoth, and Jehiel, and Mathathias, and Eliab, and Banaias, and Obededom: and Jehiel over the instruments of psaltery, and harps: and Asaph sounded with cymbals:
6 Benaya ne Yakaziyeeri bakabona be baafuuwanga amakondeere bulijjo mu maaso g’essanduuko ey’endagaano ya Katonda.
But Banaias, and Jaziel the priests, to sound the trumpet continually before the ark of the covenant of the Lord.
7 Awo ku lunaku olwo, Dawudi n’alagira Asafu n’abantu be yakolanga nabo, basooke okwebaza Mukama nga bagamba nti:
In that day David made Asaph the chief to give praise to the Lord with his brethren.
8 Mwebaze Mukama, mukoowoole erinnya lye, mumanyise ebikolwa bye mu mawanga.
Praise ye the Lord, and call upon his name: make known his doings among the nations.
9 Mumuyimbire, muyimbe okumutendereza mwogere ku byamagero bye byonna.
Sing to him, yea, sing praises to him: and relate all his wondrous works.
10 Erinnya lye ligulumizibwe, n’emitima gy’abo abanoonya Mukama gisanyuke.
Praise ye his holy name: let the heart I of them rejoice, that seek the Lord.
11 Mutunuulire Mukama n’amaanyi ge; munoonye amaaso ge ennaku zonna.
Seek ye the Lord, and his power: seek ye his face evermore.
12 Mujjukire ebyewuunyo by’akoze, n’ebyamagero bye, n’ensala ye ey’emisango gy’alangirira,
Remember his wonderful works, which he hath done: his signs, and the judgments of his mouth.
13 mmwe abazzukulu ba Isirayiri, abaweereza be, mmwe abaana ba Yakobo, abalonde be.
O ye seed of Israel his servants, ye children of Jacob his chosen.
14 Ye Mukama Katonda waffe; okusalawo kwe okw’emisango kubuna ensi yonna.
He is the Lord our God: his judgments are in all the earth.
15 Ajjukira endagaano ye emirembe gyonna, n’ekigambo kye yalagira, okutuusa ku mirembe olukumi,
Remember for ever his covenant: the word, which he commanded to a thousand generations.
16 gye yakola ne Ibulayimu, era n’agirayiza Isaaka.
The covenant which he made with Abraham: and his oath to Isaac.
17 N’aginyweza ng’etteeka eri Yakobo, n’eri Isirayiri ng’endagaano ey’olubeerera,
And he appointed the same to Jacob for a precept: and to Israel for an everlasting covenant:
18 ng’agamba nti, “Ndikuwa ensi ya Kanani, ng’omugabo, ogw’obusika bwo.”
Saying: To thee will I give the land of Chanaan: the lot of your inheritance.
19 Omuwendo gwabwe bwe gwali omutono, era omutono ddala, nga batambuze mu yo,
When they were but a small number: very few and sojourners in it.
20 baatambulatambulanga okuva mu nsi emu okudda mu ndala, n’okuva mu bwakabaka obumu okudda mu bantu abalala.
And they passed from nation to nation: and from a kingdom to another people.
21 Teyaganya muntu n’omu kubanyigiriza; weewaawo, yanenya bakabaka ku lwabwe:
He suffered no man to do them wrong: and reproved kings for their sake.
22 ng’agamba nti, “Temukwatanga ku abo be nnafukako amafuta, so bannabbi bange temubakolanga akabi.”
Touch not my anointed: and do no evil to my prophets.
23 Muyimbire Mukama, mmwe ensi zonna; mulangirire obulokozi bwe buli lunaku.
Sing ye to the Lord, all the earth: shew forth from day to day his salvation.
24 Mubuulire ekitiibwa kye mu mawanga, n’ebikolwa bye ebyamagero mu bantu bonna.
Declare his glory among the Gentiles: his wonders among all people.
25 Mukama mukulu era asaanira okutenderezebwa; era atiibwenga okusinga bakatonda abalala bonna.
For the Lord is great and exceedingly to be praised: and he is to be feared above all gods.
26 Bakatonda bonna abamawanga bifaananyi, naye Mukama ye yakola eggulu.
For all the gods of the nations are idols: but the Lord made the heavens.
27 Ekitiibwa n’obukulu biri mu maaso ge, amaanyi n’essanyu biri wamu naye.
Praise and magnificence are before him: strength and joy in his place.
28 Mugulumize Mukama, mmwe ebika eby’amawanga byonna, mutende ekitiibwa kya Mukama awamu n’amaanyi ge.
Bring ye to the Lord, O ye families of the nations: bring ye to the Lord glory and empire.
29 Muyimusize Mukama ekitiibwa ekigwanira erinnya lye; muleete ekiweebwayo, mujje mu maaso ge; musinze Mukama mu kitiibwa ky’obutukuvu bwe.
Give to the Lord glory to his name, bring up sacrifice, and come ye in his sight: and adore the Lord in holy becomingness.
30 Mukankane mu maaso ge ensi yonna, weewaawo ensi nywevu, teyinza kusesetulwa.
Let all the earth be moved at his presence: for he hath founded the world immoveable.
31 Eggulu lisanyuke, n’ensi ejaguze; boogere mu mawanga nti, “Mukama afuga!”
Let the heavens rejoice, and the earth be glad: and let them say among the nations: The Lord hath reigned.
32 Ennyanja ewuume, n’ebigirimu byonna, n’ennimiro zijaguze, n’okujjula kwazo!
Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof: let the fields rejoice, and all things that are in them.
33 Awo emiti egy’omu kibira ginaayimba, ginaayimbira Mukama n’essanyu, kubanga akomawo okusalira ensi omusango.
Then shall the trees of the wood give praise before the Lord: because he is come to judge the earth.
34 Weebaze Mukama kubanga mulungi; era okwagala kwe kubeerera emirembe gyonna.
Give ye glory to the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.
35 Mwogerere waggulu nti, “Tulokole, Ayi Katonda ow’obulokozi bwaffe; tukuŋŋaanye, otulokole eri amawanga, twebaze erinnya lyo ettukuvu, era tujagulize mu ttendo lyo.”
And say ye: Save us, O God our saviour: and gather us together, and deliver us from the nations, that we may give glory to thy holy name, and may rejoice in singing thy praises.
36 Mukama yeebazibwe, Katonda wa Isirayiri ow’emirembe n’emirembe. Abantu bonna ne baddamu nti, “Amiina, Mukama yeebazibwe.”
Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel from eternity to eternity: and let all the people say Amen, and a hymn to God.
37 Awo Dawudi n’aleka Asafu n’ababeezi be, okuweereza Mukama mu maaso g’essanduuko ey’endagaano ya Mukama, nga bwe kyagwaniranga buli lunaku.
So he left there before the ark of the covenant of the Lord, Asaph and his brethren to minister in the presence of the ark continually day by day, and in their courses.
38 Obededomu n’ababeezi be enkaaga mu omunaana nabo yabaleka baweereze eyo. Obededomu mutabani wa Yedusuni, era ne Kosa be baali abaggazi.
And Obededom, with his brethren sixty-eight: and Obededom the son of Idithun, and Hosa he appointed to be porters.
39 Dawudi yaleka Zadooki, kabona ne bakabona banne mu maaso g’eweema ya Mukama mu kifo ekigulumivu e Gibyoni
And Sadoc the priest, and his brethren priests, before the tabernacle of the Lord in the high place, which was in Gabaon.
40 okuwangayo ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa eri Mukama ku kyoto eky’ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa, buli nkya na buli kawungeezi, nga byonna bwe byawandiikibwa mu mateeka ga Mukama, ge yawa Isirayiri.
That they should offer holocausts to the Lord upon the altar of holocausts continually, morning and evening, according to all that is written in the law of the Lord, which he commanded Israel.
41 Kemani ne Yedusuni n’abalala abaalondebwa ne bayitibwa amannya gaabwe okwebaza Mukama, “kubanga okwagala kwe kubeerera emirembe gyonna,” baali wamu nabo.
And after him Heman, and Idithun, and the rest that were chosen, every one by his name to give praise to the Lord: because his mercy endureth for ever.
42 Era Kemani ne Yedusuni baavunaanyizibwanga okufuuwa amakondeere, n’okukuba ebitaasa, n’okukubira ebivuga ebirala ku luyimba lwa Katonda. Batabani ba Yedusuni baabeeranga ku wankaaki.
And Heman and Idithun sounded the trumpet, and played on the cymbals, and all kinds of musical instruments to sing praises to God: and the sons of Idithun he made porters.
43 Awo abantu bonna ne baddayo ewaabwe, ne Dawudi n’addayo okusabira ennyumba ye omukisa.
And all the people returned to their houses: and David to bless also his own house.
