Zabbuli 47

1 Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Zabbuli ya Batabani ba Koola. Mukube mu ngalo mmwe amawanga gonna; muyimuse amaloboozi muyimbire nnyo Katonda ennyimba ez’essanyu;

“To the chief musician, a psalm for the sons of Korach.” All ye people, clap your hands; shout unto God with the voice of triumph.

2 Mukama Ali Waggulu Ennyo wa ntiisa. Ye Kabaka afuga ensi yonna.

For the Lord is most high, fear-inspiring; he is a great king over all the earth.

3 Yatujeemululira abantu, n’atujeemululira amawanga ne tugafuga.

He will subdue people under us, and nations under our feet.

4 Yatulondera omugabo gwaffe, Yakobo gw’ayagala mwe yeenyumiririza.

He will choose for us our inheritance, the excellency of Jacob which he loveth. (Selah)

5 Katonda alinnye waggulu ng’atenderezebwa mu maloboozi ag’essanyu eringi. Mukama alinnye nga n’amakondeere gamuvugira.

God ascendeth amid a triumphal shout, the Lord, amid the sound of the cornet.

6 Mutendereze Katonda, mumutendereze. Mumutendereze Kabaka waffe, mumutendereze.

Sing praises to God, sing praises: sing praises unto our King, sing praises.

7 Kubanga Katonda ye Kabaka w’ensi yonna, mumutendereze ne Zabbuli ey’ettendo.

For God is King of all the earth: sing ye praises with understanding.

8 Katonda afuga amawanga gonna; afuga amawanga ng’atudde ku ntebe ye entukuvu.

God reigneth over the nations; God sitteth upon his holy throne.

9 Abakungu bannaggwanga bakuŋŋanye ng’abantu ba Katonda wa Ibulayimu; kubanga Katonda y’afuga abakulembeze b’ensi. Katonda agulumizibwenga nnyo.

The nobles of the people are gathered together, [to be with] the people of the God of Abraham; for unto God belong the shields of the earth: he is greatly exalted.
