< Zabbuli 76 >

1 Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Eyimbibwa n’ebivuga eby’enkoba. Zabbuli ya Asafu. Katonda amanyiddwa mu Yuda; erinnya lye kkulu mu Isirayiri.
To the chief Musician. On stringed instruments. A Psalm of Asaph: a Song. In Judah is God known, his name is great in Israel;
2 Eweema ye eri mu Yerusaalemi; era abeera mu Sayuuni.
And in Salem is his tent, and his dwelling-place in Zion.
3 Eyo gy’asinziira n’amenyaamenya obusaale bw’omulabe obujja bwesooza; n’engabo n’ebitala n’ebyokulwanyisa byonna eby’olutalo.
There broke he the flashings of the bow, shield and sword and battle. (Selah)
4 Owa ekitangaala, oli wa kitiibwa okusinga ensozi ennene eziriko ensolo eziyiggibwa.
More glorious art thou, more excellent, than the mountains of prey.
5 Ab’amaanyi bagalamira nga banyaguluddwa, beebaka ne batasobola kugolokoka, ne watabaawo n’omu asobola okuyimusa omukono gwe.
The stout-hearted are made a spoil, they have slept their sleep; and none of the men of might have found their hands.
6 Bw’obaboggolera, Ayi Katonda wa Yakobo, abeebagala embalaasi ezisika ebigaali bagwiira wamu n’ebigaali ne batagolokoka.
At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, both chariot and horse are cast into a dead sleep.
7 Ggwe ayi Katonda, osaanira okutiibwanga. Ani ayinza okuyimirira mu maaso go ng’osunguwadde?
Thou, thou art to be feared, and who can stand before thee when once thou art angry?
8 Osalira abantu emisango ng’osinziira mu ggulu, ensi n’etya n’ekankana n’esirika olw’obusungu bwo,
Thou didst cause judgment to be heard from the heavens; the earth feared, and was still,
9 bw’ogolokoka okusala omusango, okuwonya ababonyaabonyezebwa mu nsi.
When God rose up to judgment, to save all the meek of the earth. (Selah)
10 Bw’osunguwalira omuntu kikuleetera okutenderezebwa, n’abo b’otasunguwalidde ne beegendereza.
For the fury of man shall praise thee; the remainder of fury wilt thou gird on thyself.
11 Mweyame obweyamo bwammwe eri Mukama Katonda wammwe, era mubutuukirizenga; bonna abamuli okumpi bamuleetere ebirabo, kubanga asaanidde okutiibwa.
Vow and pay unto Jehovah your God: let all that are round about him bring presents unto him that is to be feared.
12 Mukama akkakkanya abalangira, ne bakabaka b’ensi bamutya.
He cutteth off the spirit of princes; [he] is terrible to the kings of the earth.
