Zabbuli 110

1 Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Mukama yagamba Mukama wange nti: “Tuula wano ku mukono gwange ogwa ddyo, okutuusa lwe ndimala okufufuggaza abalabe bo ne mbassa wansi w’ebigere byo.”

Of David, a psalm. This said the Lord concerning my lord, ‘Sit at my right hand, till I set your foot on the neck of your foes.’

2 Mukama aligaziya obufuzi bwo okuva mu Sayuuni; olifuga abalabe bo.

On Zion the Lord is wielding your sceptre of might, and charges you to rule over the foes that surround you.

3 Abantu bo balyewaayo bokka mu ggye lyo ng’ekiseera ky’olutalo kituuse. Abavubuka bo, nga bali mu by’ekitiibwa ekitukuvu, balikukuŋŋaanirako ng’omusulo bwe gulabika ng’obudde bwakakya.

The day that you march to battle your people will follow you gladly young warriors in holy array, like dew-drops, born of the morning.

4 Mukama yalayira, era tagenda kukijjulula, yagamba nti, “Olibeera kabona emirembe gyonna ng’engeri ya Merukizeddeeki bw’eri.”

The Lord has sworn and will not repent, ‘As for you, you are priest for ever as Melchizedek was.’

5 Mukama anaakulwaniriranga; bakabaka abakulwanyisa anaababetentanga mu busungu bwe obungi.

By your side will the Lord shatter kings on the day of his wrath.

6 Aliramula amawanga, abafuzi b’ensi yonna n’abazikiriza, n’entuumo z’emirambo ziriba nnyingi ku nsi yonna.

He will execute judgment filling the valleys with dead, the broad fields with shattered heads.

7 Alinywa amazzi mu kagga ku kkubo, n’addamu amaanyi ag’obuwanguzi.

He will drink of the brook by the way, and march onward with uplifted head.
