The works of Jehovah are great, sought out by all those who have pleasure in it.

3 Emirimu gye mikulu nnyo era gya kitiibwa, n’obutuukirivu bwe tebuggwaawo emirembe gyonna.

His work is honor and majesty, and his righteousness endures forever.

4 Ayamba abantu okujjukira ebyamagero bye, Mukama wa kisa era ajjudde okusaasira.
