Zabbuli 29

1 Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Mutendereze Mukama, mmwe abaana b’ab’amaanyi. Mutendereze Mukama n’ekitiibwa n’amaanyi.

A Psalm of David. Ascribe to Jehovah, ye sons of the mighty, Ascribe to Jehovah honour and strength.

2 Mutendereze Mukama n’ekitiibwa ekisaanira erinnya lye; musinze Mukama mu kitiibwa eky’obutukuvu bwe.

Ascribe to Jehovah the honour of His name, Bow yourselves to Jehovah, In the beauty of holiness.

3 Eddoboozi lya Mukama liwulirwa ku mazzi; Katonda ow’ekitiibwa abwatuka, n’eddoboozi lye ne liwulirwa ku mazzi amangi.

The voice of Jehovah [is] on the waters, The God of glory hath thundered, Jehovah [is] on many waters.

4 Eddoboozi lya Mukama ly’amaanyi; eddoboozi lya Mukama lijjudde ekitiibwa.

The voice of Jehovah [is] with power, The voice of Jehovah [is] with majesty,

5 Eddoboozi lya Mukama limenya emivule; Mukama amenyaamenya emivule gya Lebanooni.

The voice of Jehovah [is] shivering cedars, Yea, Jehovah shivers the cedars of Lebanon.

6 Aleetera Lebanooni okubuukabuuka ng’akayana, ne Siriyooni ng’ennyana y’embogo.

And He causeth them to skip as a calf, Lebanon and Sirion as a son of Reems,

7 Eddoboozi lya Mukama libwatukira mu kumyansa.

The voice of Jehovah is hewing fiery flames,

8 Eddoboozi lya Mukama likankanya eddungu; Mukama akankanya eddungu lya Kadesi.

The voice of Jehovah paineth a wilderness, Jehovah paineth the wilderness of Kadesh.

9 Eddoboozi lya Mukama linyoolanyoola emivule, n’emiti mu bibira ne gitasigalako makoola. Mu Yeekaalu ye, abantu bonna boogerera waggulu nti, “Ekitiibwa kibe eri Mukama!”

The voice of Jehovah paineth the oaks, And maketh bare the forests, And in His temple every one saith, 'Glory.'

10 Mukama atuula waggulu w’amataba ku ntebe ye ey’obwakabaka. Mukama ye Kabaka afuga emirembe gyonna.

Jehovah on the deluge hath sat, And Jehovah sitteth king — to the age,

11 Mukama awa abantu be amaanyi; Mukama awa abantu be emirembe.

Jehovah strength to his people giveth, Jehovah blesseth His people with peace!
