Zabbuli 22
1 Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Katonda wange, Katonda wange, lwaki onjabulidde? Lwaki ogaana okunnyamba wadde okuwuliriza okwaziirana kwange?
My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? why are you so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring?
2 Ayi Katonda wange, emisana nkukoowoola, naye tonnyanukula; n’ekiro bwe ntyo, naye siweerako.
O my God, I cry in the day time, but you hear not; and in the night season, and am not silent.
3 Songa ggwe Mutukuvu atudde ku Ntebe, era ettendo lya Isirayiri yonna.
But you are holy, O you that inhabit the praises of Israel.
4 Bajjajjaffe baakwesiganga; baakwesiga naawe n’obawonya.
Our fathers trusted in you: they trusted, and you did deliver them.
5 Baakukoowoolanga n’obalokola; era baakwesiganga ne batajulirira.
They cried unto you, and were delivered: they trusted in you, and were not confounded.
6 Naye nze ndi lusiriŋŋanyi, siri muntu; abantu bampisaamu amaaso, n’abalala bannyooma.
But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people.
7 Bonna abandaba banduulira, era banvuma nga bwe banyeenyeza omutwe nga bagamba nti,
All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying,
8 “Yeesiga Mukama; kale amuwonye. Obanga Mukama amwagala, kale nno amulokole!”
He trusted on the LORD that he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him.
9 Naye ggwe wanziggya mu lubuto lwa mmange, era wampa okukwesiga ne mu buto bwange bwonna nga nkyayonka.
But you are he that took me out of the womb: you did make me hope when I was upon my mother's breasts.
10 Olwazaalibwa ne nteekebwa mu mikono gyo; olwava mu lubuto lwa mmange n’obeera Katonda wange.
I was cast upon you from the womb: you are my God from my mother's belly.
11 Tobeera wala nange, kubanga emitawaana ginsemberedde, ate nga tewali mulala n’omu asobola kunnyamba.
Be not far from me; for trouble is near; for there is none to help.
12 Zisseddume nnyingi zinneetoolodde, zisseddume enkambwe ez’e Basani zinzingizizza.
Many bulls have compassed me: strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round.
13 Banjasamiza akamwa kaabwe ng’empologoma bw’ewuluguma ng’etaagulataagula omuyiggo gwayo.
They gaped upon me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion.
14 Ngiyiddwa ng’amazzi, n’amagumba gange gasowose mu nnyingo zaago. Omutima gwange guli ng’obubaane, era gusaanuukidde mu mubiri gwange.
I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.
15 Amaanyi gampweddemu, gakaze ng’oluggyo; n’olulimi lwange lukutte waggulu mu kibuno kyange. Ondese awo mu nfuufu ng’omufu.
My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaves to my jaws; and you have brought me into the dust of death.
16 Abantu ababi banneetoolodde; banneebunguludde ng’embwa ennyingi; banfumise ne bawummula ebibatu byange n’ebigere byange.
For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have enclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet.
17 Amagumba gansowose nnyinza n’okugabala. Abalabe bange bantunuulira nga bannyoomoola.
I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me.
18 Bagabana engoye zange; era ekyambalo kyange bakikubira akalulu.
They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture.
19 Naye ggwe, Ayi Mukama, tobeera wala nange. Ggwe, Amaanyi gange, yanguwa okunnyamba!
But be not you far from me, O LORD: O my strength, haste you to help me.
20 Omponye okuttibwa n’ekitala; obulamu bwange obw’omuwendo butaase mu maanyi g’embwa!
Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog.
21 Nzigya mu kamwa k’empologoma, omponye amayembe g’embogo enkambwe.
Save me from the lion's mouth: for you have heard me from the horns of the unicorns.
22 Nnaategezanga ku linnya lyo mu booluganda; nnaakutenderezanga mu kibiina ky’abantu.
I will declare your name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise you.
23 Mmwe abatya Mukama, mumutenderezenga. Abaana ba Yakobo mwenna mumugulumizenga; era mumussengamu ekitiibwa nga mumutya, mmwe abaana ba Isirayiri mwenna.
All of you that fear the LORD, praise him; all you the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and fear him, all you the seed of Israel.
24 Kubanga tanyooma kwaziirana kw’abo abali mu nnaku, era tabeekweka, wabula abaanukula bwe bamukoowoola.
For he has not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither has he hid his face from him; but when he cried unto him, he heard.
25 Mu ggwe mwe muva ettendo lyange mu kibiina ekinene, ne nkutendereza olw’ebyo by’onkoledde. Obweyamo bwange nnaabutuukirizanga mu maaso gaabo abakutya.
My praise shall be of you in the great congregation: I will pay my vows before them that fear him.
26 Abaavu banaalyanga ne bakkuta, abo abanoonya Mukama banaamutenderezanga. Emitima gyabwe ginaajaguzanga emirembe gyonna.
The meek shall eat and be satisfied: they shall praise the LORD that seek him: your heart shall live for ever.
27 Ensi zonna zirijjukira ne zikyukira Mukama, ebika byonna eby’amawanga gonna birimuvuunamira.
All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the LORD: and all the families of the nations shall worship before you.
28 Kubanga obwakabaka bwonna bwa Mukama, era y’afuga amawanga gonna.
For the kingdom is the LORD's: and he is the governor among the nations.
29 Abagagga bonna ab’omu nsi balirya embaga, ne bamusinza. Bonna abagenda mu nfuufu, balimufukaamirira, abatakyali balamu.
All they that be fat upon earth shall eat and worship: all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him: and none can keep alive his own soul.
30 Ezadde lyabwe lirimuweereza; abaliddawo balibuulirwa ekigambo kya Mukama.
A seed shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation.
31 N’abo abatannazaalibwa balibuulirwa obutuukirivu bwe nti, “Ekyo yakikoze.”
They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he has done this.
