Zabbuli 70

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

For the leader. Of David. For commemoration. Quickly, God, deliver me, hasten to help me, Lord.

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

May those who are seeking my life, be ashamed and confounded.

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

May those who delight in my hurt be defeated and brought to dishonour.

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

But may all who seek after you rejoice and be glad in you. May all who love your salvation say, ‘Glory to God,’ evermore.

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

I am weak and needy: make haste, God, to me. You are my help and deliverer; Lord, don’t delay.
