Zabbuli 70

1 Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Zabbuli ya Dawudi, ey’okujjukiza. Ayi Katonda oyanguwa okundokole. Ayi Mukama oyanguwe okumbeera.

[For the Chief Musician. By David. A reminder.] Hurry, God, to deliver me. Come quickly to help me, Jehovah.

2 Abo abannoonya okunzita batabulwetabulwe; abo abannoonya okunzikiriza, bagobebwe nga baswadde.

Let them be put to shame and confounded who seek my soul. Let those who desire my ruin be turned back in disgrace.

3 Abagamba nti, “Kasonso,” badduke nga bajjudde ensonyi.

Let them be turned back because of their shame who say to me, "Aha. Aha."

4 Naye bonna abakunoonya basanyukenga bajagulizenga mu ggwe. Abo abaagala obulokozi bwo boogerenga bulijjo nti, “Katonda agulumizibwenga!”

Let all those who seek you rejoice and be glad in you. Let those who love your salvation continually say, "Let God be exalted."

5 Naye nze ndi mwavu era ndi mu kwetaaga; oyanguwe okujja gye ndi, Ayi Katonda. Ggwe onnyamba era ggwe ondokola, Ayi Mukama, tolwa!

But I am poor and needy. Come to me quickly, God. You are my help and my deliverer. Jehovah, do not delay.
