Zabbuli 35
1 Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Ayi Mukama, wakanya abo abampakanya, lwanyisa abo abannwanyisa.
Of David - contend! O Yahweh with opponents my fight with [those who] fight with me.
2 Golokoka okwate engabo, n’akagabo onziruukirire.
Take hold of shield and body shield and arise! help my.
3 Galula effumu, abangigganya obazibire ekkubo; otegeeze omwoyo gwange nti, “Nze bulokozi bwo.”
And draw out a spear and lance to meet pursuers my say to self my [am] salvation your I.
4 Abo bonna abannoonya okunzita bajolongebwe era baswazibwe; abo abateesa okunsanyaawo bazzibweyo ennyuma babune emiwabo.
May they be ashamed and they may be humiliated [those who] seek life my may they be turned back backwards and may they be abashed [those who] plot harm my.
5 Babe ng’ebisusunku ebifuumuulibwa empewo, malayika wa Mukama ng’abagoba.
May they be like chaff before a wind and [the] angel of Yahweh pushing.
6 Ekkubo lyabwe libe lya kizikiza era lijjule obuseerezi, ne malayika wa Mukama ng’abagoba.
May it be way their darkness and slippery places and [the] angel of Yahweh pursuing them.
7 Nga bwe bantega omutego nga siriiko kye mbakoze, ne bansimira n’ekinnya mu kkubo lyange awatali nsonga,
For without cause they have hidden for me [the] pit of net their without cause they have dug for life my.
8 bazikirizibwe nga tebategedde, n’omutego gwe banteze be baba bagugwamu, era bagwe ne mu kinnya kiri bazikirire.
May it come to him destruction [which] not he knows and net his which he hid may it catch him in destruction may he fall in it.
9 Omwoyo gwange ne gulyoka gujaguliza mu Mukama, ne gusanyukira mu bulokozi bwe.
And self my it will rejoice in Yahweh it will exult in salvation his.
10 Amagumba gange galyogera nti, “Ani afaanana nga ggwe, Ayi Mukama? Kubanga abaavu obadduukirira n’obawonya ababasinza amaanyi, n’abali mu kwetaaga n’obawonya abanyazi.”
All bones my - they will say O Yahweh who? [is] like you [one who] delivers a poor [person] from a person [too] strong for him and [the] poor and [the] needy from [one who] robs him.
11 Abajulizi abakambwe bagolokoka ne bambuuza ebintu bye sirinaako kye mmanyi.
They rise up! witnesses of violence [that] which not I know they ask me.
12 Bwe mbayisa obulungi bo bampisa bubi, ne banakuwaza omwoyo gwange.
They repay me harm in place of good bereavement [belongs] to self my.
13 So nga bwe baalwala nanakuwala ne nnyambala ebibukutu, ne neerumya nga nsiiba, ne nsaba Mukama nga nkotese omutwe, naye okusaba kwange bwe kutaddibwamu,
And I - when were sick they clothing my [was] sackcloth I humbled with fasting self my and prayer my to bosom my it returned.
14 ne mbeera mu nnaku ng’ankungubagira ow’omukwano oba owooluganda nkoteka omutwe gwange mu buyinike ng’akaabira nnyina.
Like a friend like a brother of me I went about like a mourner of a mother mourning I bowed.
15 Naye bwe nagwa mu kabi ne beekuŋŋaanya nga basanyuse; ne bannumba nga simanyi, ne bampayiriza obutata.
And at stumbling my they rejoiced and they gathered they gathered on me smitten [people] and not I knew they tore and not they were still.
16 Banduulidde n’ettima ng’abatamanyi Katonda bwe bakola, ne bannumira obujiji.
Godless [ones] of mockers of cake they gnashed towards me teeth their.
17 Ayi Mukama, olituusa ddi ng’otunula butunuzi? Nziruukirira nga bannumba, obulamu bwange obuwonye okutaagulwataagulwa, obulamu bwange obw’omuwendo eri empologoma zino.
O Lord how long? will you look bring back! life my from ravages their from young lions only [life] my.
18 Nnaakwebalizanga mu lukuŋŋaana olukulu, ne nkutenderezanga mu kibiina ky’abantu abangi ennyo.
I will give thanks to you in [the] assembly great among a people numerous I will praise you.
19 Tokkiriza balabe bange kunneeyagalirako, abankyawa awatali nsonga; abankyayira obwereere tobakkiriza kunziimuula.
May not they rejoice to me enemies my falsehood [those who] hate me without cause let them wink an eye.
20 Teboogera bya mirembe, wabula okuwaayiriza abantu abeetuulidde emirembe mu nsi.
For not peace they speak and on [the] quiet [people] of [the] land words of deceit they plan!
21 Banjasamiza akamwa kaabwe ne boogera nti, “Leero luno, ky’okoze tukirabye n’amaaso gaffe.”
And they have opened wide on me mouth their they have said aha! - aha! it has seen eyes our.
22 Bino byonna obirabye, Ayi Mukama. Noolwekyo tosirika. Tonsuulirira, Ayi Mukama.
You have seen O Yahweh may not you be silent O Lord may not you be distant from me.
23 Golokoka ojje onnyambe; nnwanirira Ayi Katonda wange era Mukama wange.
Wake up! and awake! for judgment my O God my and O Lord for cause my.
24 Mu butuukirivu bwo nnejjeereza, Ayi Mukama Katonda wange, tobaganya kunneeyagalirako.
Vindicate me according to righteousness your O Yahweh God my and may not they rejoice to me.
25 Tobaleka kulowooza nti, “Leero luno! Kino kye twali twagala!” Oba nti, “Tumusaanyizzaawo!”
May not they say in heart their aha! desire our may not they say we have swallowed him.
26 Abo bonna abanneeyagalirako olw’ennaku yange ne beesanyusa, batabulwetabulwe era baswazibwe; abo bonna abanneegulumirizaako baswazibwe era banyoomebwe.
May they be ashamed and they may be abashed - altogether [the] [people] joyful of distress my may they be clothed shame and ignominy who magnify themselves on me.
27 Abo abasanyuka ng’annejjeereza, baleekaanire waggulu olw’essanyu n’okujaganya; era boogerenga nti, “Mukama agulumizibwe, asanyuka omuweereza we ng’atebenkedde.”
May they shout for joy and they may rejoice [the] [people] desirous of righteousness my and may they say continually may he be great Yahweh desiring [the] welfare of servant his.
28 Olulimi lwange lunaayogeranga ku butuukirivu bwo, era nnaakutenderezanga olunaku lwonna.
And tongue my it will utter righteousness your all the day praise your.
