Zabbuli 24

1 Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Ensi ya Mukama n’ebigirimu byonna, n’ensi zonna n’abo abazibeeramu.

A PSALM OF DAVID. To YHWH [is] the earth and its fullness, The world and the inhabitants in it.

2 Kubanga yasimba emisingi gyayo mu nnyanja, n’agizimba ku mazzi amangi.

For He has founded it on the seas, And He establishes it on the floods.

3 Alyambuka ku lusozi lwa Mukama ye afaanana atya? Era wa ngeri ki aliyingira n’ayimirira mu nnyumba ye entukuvu?

Who goes up into the hill of YHWH? And who rises up in His holy place?

4 Oyo alina omutima omulongoofu, nga n’emikono gye mirongoofu; atasinza bakatonda abalala, era atalayirira bwereere.

The clean of hands, and pure of heart, Who has not lifted up his soul to vanity, Nor has sworn to deceit.

5 Oyo Mukama anaamuwanga omukisa, n’obutuukirivu okuva eri Katonda ow’obulokozi bwe.

He carries away a blessing from YHWH, Righteousness from the God of his salvation.

6 Ogwo gwe mulembe gw’abo abakunoonya, Ayi Katonda wa Yakobo.

This [is] a generation of those seeking Him. Seeking Your face, O Jacob! (Selah)

7 Mweggulewo, mmwe bawankaaki! Muggulwewo, mmwe enzigi ez’edda, Kabaka ow’ekitiibwa ayingire.

Lift up your heads, O gates! And be lifted up, O perpetual doors! And the King of Glory comes in!

8 Kabaka ow’ekitiibwa ye ani? Ye Mukama ow’amaanyi era ow’obuyinza, omuwanguzi mu ntalo.

Who [is] this—“the King of Glory?” YHWH—strong and mighty, YHWH, the mighty in battle.

9 Mweggulewo, mmwe bawankaaki, muggulwewo mmwe enzigi ez’edda! Kabaka ow’ekitiibwa ayingire.

Lift up your heads, O gates! And be lifted up, O perpetual doors! And the King of Glory comes in!

10 Kabaka ow’ekitiibwa oyo ye ani? Mukama Ayinzabyonna; oyo ye Kabaka ow’ekitiibwa.

Who [is] He—this “King of Glory?” YHWH of hosts—He [is] the King of Glory! (Selah)
