< Zabbuli 125 >
1 Oluyimba nga balinnya amadaala. Abeesiga Mukama bali ng’olusozi Sayuuni olutayinza kusiguukululwa, naye olubeerawo emirembe gyonna.
“A psalm of the steps, or the goings up.” They who trust in the LORD shall be as Mount Zion, Which cannot be moved, which standeth for ever.
2 Ensozi nga bwe zeetooloola Yerusaalemi, ne Mukama bw’atyo bwe yeetooloola abantu be, okuva kaakano n’okutuusa emirembe gyonna.
As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, So the LORD is round about his people, Henceforth even for ever!
3 Kubanga abafuzi abakola ebibi tebalifugira mu nsi y’abatuukirivu, baleme okuwaliriza abatuukirivu okukola ebibi.
For the sceptre of the wicked shall not remain upon the portion of the righteous, Lest the righteous put forth their hands to iniquity.
4 Ayi Mukama, abalungi n’abo abalina omutima omulongoofu bakolere ebirungi.
Do good, O LORD! to the good, To them that are upright in heart!
5 Naye abo abalaga mu makubo gaabwe amakyamu, Mukama alibawaŋŋangusa wamu n’abakola ebitali bya butuukirivu. Emirembe gibe ku Isirayiri.
But such as turn aside to their crooked ways, -May the LORD destroy them with the evil-doers! Peace be to Israel!
