Zabbuli 20

1 Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Mukama akwanukulenga ng’oli mu buzibu. Erinnya lya Katonda wa Yakobo likukuumenga.

TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF DAVID. YHWH answers you, In a day of adversity, The Name of the God of Jacob sets you on high,

2 Akuweerezenga obuyambi obuva mu kifo kye ekitukuvu; akudduukirirenga okuva ku lusozi Sayuuni.

He sends your help from the sanctuary, And supports you from Zion,

3 Ajjukirenga ssaddaaka zo zonna z’omuwa, era asiimenga ebiweebwayo byo ebyokebwa.

He remembers all your presents, And reduces your burnt-offering to ashes. (Selah)

4 Akuwenga omutima gwo bye gwetaaga, era atuukirizenga by’oteekateeka byonna.

He gives to you according to your heart, And fulfills all your counsel.

5 Tulijaganya olw’obuwanguzi bwo, ne tuwuuba ebendera zaffe mu linnya lya Katonda waffe. Mukama akuwenga byonna by’omusaba.

We sing of Your salvation, And in the Name of our God set up a banner. YHWH fulfills all your requests.

6 Kaakano ntegedde nga Mukama awanguza oyo gwe yafukako amafuta, amwanukula ng’amuwa obuwanguzi n’omukono gwe ogwa ddyo, ng’asinziira mu ggulu lye ettukuvu.

Now I have known That YHWH has saved His anointed, He answers him from His holy heavens, With the saving might of His right hand.

7 Abamu beesiga amagaali, n’abalala beesiga embalaasi, naye ffe twesiga erinnya lya Mukama Katonda waffe.

Some of chariots, and some of horses, And we of the Name of our God YHWH Make mention.

8 Batalantuka ne bagwa wansi ne balemerawo, naye ffe tugolokoka ne tuyimirira nga tuli banywevu.

They have bowed and have fallen, And we have risen and station ourselves upright.

9 Ayi Mukama, lokola kabaka, otwanukule bwe tukukoowoola.

O YHWH, save the king, He answers us in the day we call!
