Zabbuli 32
1 Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Alina omukisa oyo asonyiyiddwa ebyonoono bye ekibi ne kiggyibwawo.
A Psalm of David. Maschil. Happy is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is pardoned.
2 Alina omukisa omuntu oyo Mukama gw’atakyabalira kibi kye, ne mu mutima gwe nga temuli bukuusa.
Happy is the man unto whom the LORD counteth not iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile.
3 Bwe nasirikiranga ekibi kyange, ne nkogga, kubanga nasindanga olunaku lwonna.
When I kept silence, my bones wore away through my groaning all the day long.
4 Wambonerezanga emisana n’ekiro, amaanyi ne ganzigwamu ng’amazzi bwe gakalira mu kyeya.
For day and night Thy hand was heavy upon me; my sap was turned as in the droughts of summer. (Selah)
5 Awo ne nkwatulira ekibi kyange, ne sibikkirira kwonoona kwange. Ne njogera nti, “Leka neenenyeze Mukama ebibi byange.” Bw’otyo n’onsonyiwa, n’onziggyako omusango gw’ebibi byange.
I acknowledged my sin unto Thee, and mine iniquity have I not hid; I said: 'I will make confession concerning my transgressions unto the LORD' — and Thou, Thou forgavest the iniquity of my sin. (Selah)
6 Noolwekyo abaweereza bo bonna abeesigwa bakwegayirire ng’okyalabika; oluvannyuma ebizibu bwe birijja, ng’amazzi ag’amaanyi amangi tebiribatuukako.
For this let every one that is godly pray unto Thee in a time when Thou mayest be found; surely, when the great waters overflow, they will not reach unto him.
7 Oli kifo kyange mwe nneekweka, ononkuumanga ne situukwako kabi era ononneetooloozanga ennyimba ez’obulokozi.
Thou art my hiding-place; Thou wilt preserve me from the adversary; with songs of deliverance Thou wilt compass me about. (Selah)
8 Nnaakulagiranga era ne nkuyigiriza ekkubo mw’onootambuliranga; nnaakuwanga amagezi nga bwe nkulabirira.
'I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go; I will give counsel, Mine eye being upon thee.'
9 Temubeeranga ng’embalaasi oba ennyumbu ezitategeera, ze bateekwa okussa ekyuma mu kamwa ekisibwa ku lukoba, ziryoke zifugibwe zijje gy’oli.
Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding; whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, that they come not near unto thee.
10 Ababi balaba ennaku nnyingi; naye abeesiga Mukama bakuumirwa mu kwagala kwe okutaggwaawo.
Many are the sorrows of the wicked; but he that trusteth in the LORD, mercy compasseth him about.
11 Musanyukire mu Mukama era mujaguze mmwe abatuukirivu, era muyimbire waggulu n’essanyu mmwe abalina omutima omulongoofu.
Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, ye righteous; and shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart.
