Zabbuli 22
1 Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Katonda wange, Katonda wange, lwaki onjabulidde? Lwaki ogaana okunnyamba wadde okuwuliriza okwaziirana kwange?
TO THE OVERSEER. [SET] ON “DOE OF THE MORNING.” A PSALM OF DAVID. My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me? Far from My salvation, The words of My roaring?
2 Ayi Katonda wange, emisana nkukoowoola, naye tonnyanukula; n’ekiro bwe ntyo, naye siweerako.
My God, I call by day, and You do not answer, And by night, and am not silent.
3 Songa ggwe Mutukuvu atudde ku Ntebe, era ettendo lya Isirayiri yonna.
And You [are] holy, Sitting—the Praise of Israel.
4 Bajjajjaffe baakwesiganga; baakwesiga naawe n’obawonya.
In You our fathers trusted; They trusted, and You deliver them.
5 Baakukoowoolanga n’obalokola; era baakwesiganga ne batajulirira.
To You they cried, and were delivered, In You they trusted, and were not disappointed.
6 Naye nze ndi lusiriŋŋanyi, siri muntu; abantu bampisaamu amaaso, n’abalala bannyooma.
And I [am] a worm, and no man, A reproach of man, and despised of the people.
7 Bonna abandaba banduulira, era banvuma nga bwe banyeenyeza omutwe nga bagamba nti,
All beholding Me mock at Me, They make free with the lip—shake the head,
8 “Yeesiga Mukama; kale amuwonye. Obanga Mukama amwagala, kale nno amulokole!”
“Roll to YHWH, He delivers Him, He delivers Him, for He delighted in Him.”
9 Naye ggwe wanziggya mu lubuto lwa mmange, era wampa okukwesiga ne mu buto bwange bwonna nga nkyayonka.
For You [are] He bringing Me forth from the womb, Causing Me to trust, On the breasts of My mother.
10 Olwazaalibwa ne nteekebwa mu mikono gyo; olwava mu lubuto lwa mmange n’obeera Katonda wange.
On You I have been cast from the womb, From the belly of My mother You [are] My God.
11 Tobeera wala nange, kubanga emitawaana ginsemberedde, ate nga tewali mulala n’omu asobola kunnyamba.
Do not be far from Me, For adversity is near, for there is no helper.
12 Zisseddume nnyingi zinneetoolodde, zisseddume enkambwe ez’e Basani zinzingizizza.
Many bulls have surrounded Me, Mighty ones of Bashan have surrounded Me,
13 Banjasamiza akamwa kaabwe ng’empologoma bw’ewuluguma ng’etaagulataagula omuyiggo gwayo.
They have opened their mouth against Me, A lion tearing and roaring.
14 Ngiyiddwa ng’amazzi, n’amagumba gange gasowose mu nnyingo zaago. Omutima gwange guli ng’obubaane, era gusaanuukidde mu mubiri gwange.
I have been poured out as waters, And all my bones have separated themselves, My heart has been 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 power is dried up as an earthen vessel, And My tongue is cleaving to My jaws.
16 Abantu ababi banneetoolodde; banneebunguludde ng’embwa ennyingi; banfumise ne bawummula ebibatu byange n’ebigere byange.
And You appoint Me to the dust of death, For dogs have surrounded Me, A company of evildoers has surrounded Me, Piercing My hands and My feet.
17 Amagumba gansowose nnyinza n’okugabala. Abalabe bange bantunuulira nga bannyoomoola.
I count all My bones—they look expectingly, They look on Me,
18 Bagabana engoye zange; era ekyambalo kyange bakikubira akalulu.
They apportion My garments to themselves, And they cause a lot to fall for My clothing.
19 Naye ggwe, Ayi Mukama, tobeera wala nange. Ggwe, Amaanyi gange, yanguwa okunnyamba!
And You, O YHWH, do not be far off, O My strength, hurry to help Me.
20 Omponye okuttibwa n’ekitala; obulamu bwange obw’omuwendo butaase mu maanyi g’embwa!
Deliver My soul from the sword, My only one from the paw of a dog.
21 Nzigya mu kamwa k’empologoma, omponye amayembe g’embogo enkambwe.
Save Me from the mouth of a lion And You have answered Me from the horns of the high places!
22 Nnaategezanga ku linnya lyo mu booluganda; nnaakutenderezanga mu kibiina ky’abantu.
I declare Your Name to My brothers, In the midst of the assembly I praise You.
23 Mmwe abatya Mukama, mumutenderezenga. Abaana ba Yakobo mwenna mumugulumizenga; era mumussengamu ekitiibwa nga mumutya, mmwe abaana ba Isirayiri mwenna.
You who fear YHWH, praise Him, All the seed of Jacob, honor Him, And be afraid of Him, all you seed of Israel.
24 Kubanga tanyooma kwaziirana kw’abo abali mu nnaku, era tabeekweka, wabula abaanukula bwe bamukoowoola.
For He has not despised, nor detested, The affliction of the afflicted, Nor has He hidden His face from Him, And in His crying to Him He hears.
25 Mu ggwe mwe muva ettendo lyange mu kibiina ekinene, ne nkutendereza olw’ebyo by’onkoledde. Obweyamo bwange nnaabutuukirizanga mu maaso gaabo abakutya.
Of You My praise [is] in the great assembly. I complete My vows before His fearers.
26 Abaavu banaalyanga ne bakkuta, abo abanoonya Mukama banaamutenderezanga. Emitima gyabwe ginaajaguzanga emirembe gyonna.
The humble eat and are satisfied, Those seeking Him praise YHWH, Your heart lives forever.
27 Ensi zonna zirijjukira ne zikyukira Mukama, ebika byonna eby’amawanga gonna birimuvuunamira.
Remember and return to YHWH, Do all the ends of the earth, And bow themselves before You, Do all families of the nations,
28 Kubanga obwakabaka bwonna bwa Mukama, era y’afuga amawanga gonna.
For to YHWH [is] the kingdom, And He is ruling among nations.
29 Abagagga bonna ab’omu nsi balirya embaga, ne bamusinza. Bonna abagenda mu nfuufu, balimufukaamirira, abatakyali balamu.
And the fat ones of earth have eaten, And they bow themselves, All going down to dust bow before Him, And he [who] has not revived his soul.
30 Ezadde lyabwe lirimuweereza; abaliddawo balibuulirwa ekigambo kya Mukama.
A seed serves Him, It is declared of the Lord to the generation.
31 N’abo abatannazaalibwa balibuulirwa obutuukirivu bwe nti, “Ekyo yakikoze.”
They come and declare His righteousness, To a people that is born, that He has made!
