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. With Stringed Instruments. A Melody of Asaph, a Song. God is, known in Judah, In Israel, great is his Name;
2 Eweema ye eri mu Yerusaalemi; era abeera mu Sayuuni.
Now hath come into Salem, his pavilion, And his dwelling-place into Zion.
3 Eyo gy’asinziira n’amenyaamenya obusaale bw’omulabe obujja bwesooza; n’engabo n’ebitala n’ebyokulwanyisa byonna eby’olutalo.
There, hath he broken in pieces the arrows of the bow, shield and sword, and battle. (Selah)
4 Owa ekitangaala, oli wa kitiibwa okusinga ensozi ennene eziriko ensolo eziyiggibwa.
Enveloped in light, thou, art more majestic than the mountains of prey.
5 Ab’amaanyi bagalamira nga banyaguluddwa, beebaka ne batasobola kugolokoka, ne watabaawo n’omu asobola okuyimusa omukono gwe.
The valiant of heart have become a spoil, They have slumbered 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, Stunned are the horsemen.
7 Ggwe ayi Katonda, osaanira okutiibwanga. Ani ayinza okuyimirira mu maaso go ng’osunguwadde?
As for thee, to be feared thou art! Who then shall stand before thee, because of the power of thine anger?
8 Osalira abantu emisango ng’osinziira mu ggulu, ensi n’etya n’ekankana n’esirika olw’obusungu bwo,
Out of the heavens, didst thou cause judgment to be heard, Earth, feared and was still:
9 bw’ogolokoka okusala omusango, okuwonya ababonyaabonyezebwa mu nsi.
When God rose up to judgment, To save all the oppressed of the earth. (Selah)
10 Bw’osunguwalira omuntu kikuleetera okutenderezebwa, n’abo b’otasunguwalidde ne beegendereza.
For the multitude of mankind shall give thanks unto thee, The remainder of the multitude, shall keep holy festival unto thee.
11 Mweyame obweyamo bwammwe eri Mukama Katonda wammwe, era mubutuukirizenga; bonna abamuli okumpi bamuleetere ebirabo, kubanga asaanidde okutiibwa.
Vow and pay, unto Yahweh your God, —Let, all who are round about him, bear along a gift unto him who is to be revered.
12 Mukama akkakkanya abalangira, ne bakabaka b’ensi bamutya.
He cutteth off the spirit of nobles, he is of reverend majesty to the kings of the earth.
