< 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 chief musician; set to Al Tashheth. A psalm of Asaph, a song. We give thanks to you, God; we give thanks, for you reveal your presence; people tell of your wondrous works.
2 Mukama Katonda oyogera nti, “Neerondera ekiseera kye neetegekera era nsala omusango gwa bwenkanya.
At the appointed time I will judge fairly.
3 Kyokka newaakubadde ng’ensi eyuuguuma abantu ne beeraliikirira, naye nze nywezezza empagi zaayo.”
Though the earth and all the inhabitants shake in fear, I make steady the earth's pillars. (Selah)
4 Nalabula ab’amalala bagaleke, n’ababi bakomye okuyimusa ejjembe lyabwe ng’ery’embogo.
I said to the arrogant, “Do not be arrogant,” and to the wicked, “Do not lift up the horn.
5 Mukomye okuyimusa ejjembe lyammwe eri eggulu n’okwogera nga muduula.
Do not lift up your horn to the heights; do not speak with an insolent neck.”
6 Kubanga okugulumizibwa tekuva mu ddungu era n’obuyinza tebuva buvanjuba wadde obugwanjuba bw’ensi,
It is not from the east or from the west, and it is not from the wilderness that lifting up comes.
7 wabula biva eri Katonda; era ye y’agulumiza omu ate n’atoowaza omulala.
But God is the judge; he brings down and he lifts up.
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 Yahweh holds in his hand a cup of foaming wine, which is mixed with spices, and pours it out. Surely all the wicked of the earth will drink it to the last drop.
9 Naye nze nnaatendanga obulungi bwa Mukama; nnaatenderezanga Katonda wa Yakobo ennaku zonna.
But I will continually tell what you have done; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.
10 Mukama ayogera nti, Ababi ndibamalamu amaanyi, naye abatuukirivu nnaabongeranga amaanyi.
He says, “I will cut off all the horns of the wicked, but the horns of the righteous will be raised up.”
