Zabbuli 26

1 Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Onnejjeereze, Ayi Mukama, kubanga obulamu bwange tebuliiko kya kunenyezebwa; nneesiga ggwe, Ayi Mukama, nga sibuusabuusa.

A Psalm of David. Judge me, O LORD, for I have walked in mine integrity, and I have trusted in the LORD without wavering.

2 Neetegereza, Ayi Mukama, ongezese; weekalirize ebiri mu mutima gwange ne mu mmeeme yange.

Examine me, O LORD, and try me; test my reins and my heart.

3 Kubanga okwagala kwo kwe kunkulembera, era mu mazima go mwe ntambulira.

For Thy mercy is before mine eyes; and I have walked in Thy truth.

4 Situula na bantu balimba, so siteesaganya na bakuusa.

I have not sat with men of falsehood; neither will I go in with dissemblers.

5 Nkyawa ekibiina ky’aboonoonyi; so situula na bakozi ba bibi.

I hate the gathering of evil doers, and will not sit with the wicked.

6 Naaba mu ngalo zange okulaga nga bwe sirina misango; ne ndyoka nzija ku Kyoto kyo, Ayi Mukama;

I will wash my hands in innocency; so will I compass Thine altar, O LORD,

7 ne nnyimba oluyimba olw’okwebaza, olwogera ku bikolwa byo ebyewuunyisa.

That I may make the voice of thanksgiving to be heard, and tell of all Thy wondrous works.

8 Ennyumba yo mw’obeera njagala, Ayi Mukama, kye kifo ekijjudde ekitiibwa kyo.

LORD, I love the habitation of Thy house, and the place where Thy glory dwelleth.

9 Tombalira mu boonoonyi, wadde mu batemu,

Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with men of blood;

10 abakozesa emikono gyabwe okutegeka ebikolwa ebibi, era abali b’enguzi.

In whose hands is craftiness, and their right hand is full of bribes.

11 Naye nze ntambula nga siriiko kye nnenyezebwa; nkwatirwa ekisa, Ayi Mukama, ondokole.

But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity; redeem me, and be gracious unto me.

12 Nnyimiridde watereevu. Nnaatenderezanga Mukama mu kibiina ky’abantu ekinene.

My foot standeth in an even place; in the congregations will I bless the LORD.
