Zabbuli 75
1 Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Ku ddoboozi, “Tozikiriza.” Zabbuli ya Asafu. Oluyimba. Tukwebaza, Ayi Katonda. Tukwebaza, kubanga Erinnya lyo liri kumpi. Abantu boogera ku bikolwa byo eby’ekyewuunyo.
For the choirmaster: To the tune of “Do Not Destroy.” A Psalm of Asaph. A song. We give thanks to You, O God; we give thanks, for Your Name is near. The people declare Your wondrous works.
2 Mukama Katonda oyogera nti, “Neerondera ekiseera kye neetegekera era nsala omusango gwa bwenkanya.
“When I choose a time, I will judge fairly.
3 Kyokka newaakubadde ng’ensi eyuuguuma abantu ne beeraliikirira, naye nze nywezezza empagi zaayo.”
When the earth and all its dwellers quake, it is I who bear up its pillars.
4 Nalabula ab’amalala bagaleke, n’ababi bakomye okuyimusa ejjembe lyabwe ng’ery’embogo.
I say to the proud, ‘Do not boast,’ and to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up your horn.
5 Mukomye okuyimusa ejjembe lyammwe eri eggulu n’okwogera nga muduula.
Do not lift up your horn against heaven or speak with an outstretched neck.’”
6 Kubanga okugulumizibwa tekuva mu ddungu era n’obuyinza tebuva buvanjuba wadde obugwanjuba bw’ensi,
For exaltation comes neither from east nor west, nor out of the desert,
7 wabula biva eri Katonda; era ye y’agulumiza omu ate n’atoowaza omulala.
but it is God who judges; He brings down one and exalts another.
8 Mukama akutte mu mukono gwe ekikompe eky’obusungu bwe ekijjudde omwenge ogutabuddwamu ebirungo era kijjudde ejjovu; akifuka, aboonoonyi bonna ku nsi ne bakinywa ne bakimaliramu ddala.
For a cup is in the hand of the LORD, full of foaming wine mixed with spices. He pours from His cup, and all the wicked of the earth drink it down to the dregs.
9 Naye nze nnaatendanga obulungi bwa Mukama; nnaatenderezanga Katonda wa Yakobo ennaku zonna.
But I will proclaim Him forever; I will sing praise to the God of Jacob.
10 Mukama ayogera nti, Ababi ndibamalamu amaanyi, naye abatuukirivu nnaabongeranga amaanyi.
“All the horns of the wicked I will cut off, but the horns of the righteous will be exalted.”
