Zabbuli 5
1 Ya mukulu wa Bayimbi. Ya ndere. Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Otege okutu eri ebigambo byange, Ayi Mukama; olowooze ku kunyolwa kwange.
TO THE OVERSEER. [BLOWN] INTO THE PIPES. A PSALM OF DAVID. Hear my sayings, O YHWH, Consider my (meditation)
2 Wuliriza eddoboozi ly’omulanga gwange, Ayi Kabaka wange era Katonda wange: kubanga ggwe gwe nsaba.
Be attentive to the voice of my cry, My King and my God, For I pray to You habitually.
3 Ayi Mukama, buli nkya owulira eddoboozi lyange; buli nkya ndeeta gy’oli okusaba kwange, ne nnindirira onziremu.
YHWH, [in] the morning You hear my voice, [In] the morning I set in array for You, And I look out [expectantly].
4 Kubanga ggwe Ayi Katonda, tosanyukira bibi: n’ebitasaana tobigumiikiriza.
For You [are] not a God desiring wickedness, Evil does not inhabit You.
5 Ab’amalala era abakola ebibi tobeetaaga mu maaso go: kubanga okyawa abakola ebibi bonna.
The boastful do not station themselves before Your eyes: You have hated all working iniquity.
6 Abalimba bonna obazikiriza; Mukama akyawa abatemu era n’abalimba.
You destroy those speaking lies, YHWH detests a man of blood and deceit.
7 Naye olw’ekisa kyo ekingi, nze nnaayingiranga mu nnyumba yo: ne nkusinziza mu Yeekaalu yo Entukuvu n’okutya okungi.
And I, in the abundance of Your kindness, I enter Your house, I bow myself toward Your holy temple in Your fear.
8 Onkulembere, Ayi Mukama, mu butuukirivu bwo, olw’abalabe bange, ondage ekkubo eggolokofu ery’okutambulirangamu.
O YHWH, lead me in Your righteousness, Because of those observing me, Make Your way straight before me,
9 Abalabe bange bye boogera tebyesigibwa; emitima gyabwe gijjudde bussi bwereere. Emimiro gyabwe ntaana eyasaamiridde: akamwa kaabwe koogera bya bulimba.
For there is no stability in their mouth. Their heart [is] mischiefs, Their throat [is] an open grave, They make their tongue smooth.
10 Basalire omusango gubasinge, Ayi Katonda; baleke bagwe mu mitego gyabwe. Bagobe kubanga baakujeemera.
Declare them guilty, O God, Let them fall from their own counsels, In the abundance of their transgressions Drive them away, Because they have been rebellious against You.
11 Naye leka abo bonna abakwesiga basanyukenga; ennaku zonna bayimbenga n’essanyu, obakuumenga, abo abaagala erinnya lyo basanyukirenga mu ggwe.
And all trusting in You rejoice, They sing for all time, and You cover them over, And those loving Your Name exult in You.
12 Kubanga, Ayi Mukama, omutuukirivu omuwa omukisa; era omukuuma, n’omwetoolooza okwagala ng’engabo.
For You bless the righteous, O YHWH, Surrounding him with favor as a buckler!
