Zabbuli 13

1 Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Olinneerabira kutuusa ddi, Ayi Mukama? Okutuusa emirembe gyonna? Olikomya ddi okunkweka amaaso go?

“For the leader of the music. A psalm of David.” How long, O LORD! wilt thou forget me for ever? How long wilt thou hide thy face from me?

2 Okulumwa mu mmeeme yange kulikoma ddi, n’okunyolwa okwa buli lunaku mu mutima gwange kuliggwaamu ddi? Abalabe bange balikomya ddi okumpangulanga nga beegulumiza?

How long shall I have anxiety in my soul for ever, And sorrow in my heart all the day? How long shall my enemy be exalted over me?

3 Onnyanukule, Ayi Mukama Katonda wange; onzizeemu amaanyi nneme okufa.

Look down and hear me, O LORD, my God! Enlighten my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death;

4 Si kulwa ng’omulabe wange yeewaana nti, “Mmuwangudde;” abalabe bange ne bajaguza nga ngudde.

Lest my enemy say, “I have prevailed against him!” Lest my adversaries rejoice, when I am fallen.

5 Naye nze neesiga okwagala kwo okutajjulukuka; era omutima gwange gunaasanyukiranga mu bulokozi bwo.

Yet will I trust in thy goodness; My heart shall rejoice in thy salvation;

6 Nnaayimbiranga Mukama, kubanga ankoledde ebirungi.

I will sing to the LORD, that he hath dealt kindly with me.
