Zabbuli 66
1 Ya mukulu wa bayimbi. Oluyimba, Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Yimbira Mukama n’eddoboozi ery’omwanguka, ggwe ensi yonna.
For the Chief Musician. A Song, a Psalm. Make a joyful noise unto God, all the earth:
2 Muyimbe ekitiibwa ky’erinnya lye. Mumuyimbire ennyimba ezimusuuta.
Sing forth the glory of his name: make his praise glorious.
3 Gamba Katonda nti, “Ebikolwa byo nga bya ntiisa! Olw’amaanyi go amangi abalabe bo bakujeemulukukira.
Say unto God, How terrible are thy works! through the greatness of thy power shall thine enemies submit themselves unto thee.
4 Ab’omu nsi yonna bakuvuunamira, bakutendereza, bayimba nga bagulumiza erinnya lyo.”
All the earth shall worship thee, and shall sing unto thee; they shall sing to thy name. (Selah)
5 Mujje mulabe Katonda ky’akoze; mulabe eby’entiisa by’akoledde abaana b’abantu!
Come, and see the works of God; [he is] terrible in his doing toward the children of men.
6 Ennyanja yagifuula olukalu. Abantu baasomoka omugga n’ebigere nga temuli mazzi, kyetuva tujaguza.
He turned the sea into dry land: they went through the river on foot: there did we rejoice in him.
7 Afuga n’amaanyi ge emirembe gyonna; amaaso ge agasimba ku mawanga, ab’omutima omujeemu baleme okumujeemera.
He ruleth by his might for ever; his eyes observe the nations: let not the rebellious exalt themselves. (Selah)
8 Mutendereze Katonda waffe, mmwe amawanga; eddoboozi ery’okumutendereza liwulirwe wonna.
O bless our God, ye peoples, and make the voice of his praise to be heard.
9 Oyo y’atukuumye ne tuba balamu, n’ataganya bigere byaffe kuseerera.
Which holdeth our soul in life, and suffereth not our feet to be moved.
10 Kubanga ggwe, Ayi Katonda, otugezesezza, n’otulongoosa nga bwe bakola ffeeza mu muliro.
For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us, as silver is tried.
11 Watuteeka mu kkomera, n’otutikka emigugu.
Thou broughtest us into the net; thou layedst a sore burden upon our loins.
12 Waleka abantu ne batulinnyirira; ne tuyita mu muliro ne mu mazzi, n’otutuusa mu kifo eky’okwesiima.
Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water; but thou broughtest us out into a wealthy place.
13 Nnaayambukanga mu yeekaalu yo n’ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa, ntuukirize obweyamo bwange gy’oli,
I will come into thy house with burnt offerings, I will pay thee my vows,
14 nga ndeeta ekyo emimwa gyange kye gyasuubiza; akamwa kange kye kaayogera bwe nnali mu kabi.
Which my lips have uttered, and my mouth hath spoken, when I was in distress.
15 Nnaawaayo gy’oli ssaddaaka ez’ensolo ensava, mpeeyo ne ssaddaaka ey’endiga ennume; mpeeyo ente ennume n’embuzi.
I will offer unto thee burnt offerings of fatlings, with the incense of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats. (Selah)
16 Mujje muwulire, mmwe mwenna abatya Katonda, mbategeeze ebyo by’ankoledde.
Come, and hear, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what he hath done for my soul.
17 Namukaabirira n’akamwa kange, ne mutendereza n’olulimi lwange.
I cried unto him with my mouth, and he was extolled with my tongue.
18 Singa nnali nsirikidde ekibi mu mutima gwange, Mukama teyandimpulirizza;
If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear:
19 ddala ddala Katonda yampuliriza era n’awulira eddoboozi lyange nga nsaba.
But verily God hath heard; he hath attended to the voice of my prayer.
20 Katonda atenderezebwenga, atagobye kusaba kwange, wadde okunziggyako okwagala kwe okutaggwaawo!
Blessed be God, which hath not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me.
