1 Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Eyimbibwa n’ebivuga eby’enkoba. Zabbuli ya Asafu. Katonda amanyiddwa mu Yuda; erinnya lye kkulu mu Isirayiri.
To the Overseer with stringed instruments. — A Psalm of Asaph. — A Song. In Judah [is] God known, in Israel His name [is] great.
2 Eweema ye eri mu Yerusaalemi; era abeera mu Sayuuni.
And His tabernacle is in Salem, And His habitation in Zion.
3 Eyo gy’asinziira n’amenyaamenya obusaale bw’omulabe obujja bwesooza; n’engabo n’ebitala n’ebyokulwanyisa byonna eby’olutalo.
There he hath shivered arrows of a bow, Shield, and sword, and battle. (Selah)
4 Owa ekitangaala, oli wa kitiibwa okusinga ensozi ennene eziriko ensolo eziyiggibwa.
Bright [art] Thou, honourable above hills of prey.
5 Ab’amaanyi bagalamira nga banyaguluddwa, beebaka ne batasobola kugolokoka, ne watabaawo n’omu asobola okuyimusa omukono gwe.
Spoiled themselves have the mighty of heart, They have slept their sleep, And none of the men of might found their hands.
6 Bw’obaboggolera, Ayi Katonda wa Yakobo, abeebagala embalaasi ezisika ebigaali bagwiira wamu n’ebigaali ne batagolokoka.
From Thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, Both rider and horse have been fast asleep.
7 Ggwe ayi Katonda, osaanira okutiibwanga. Ani ayinza okuyimirira mu maaso go ng’osunguwadde?
Thou, fearful [art] Thou, And who doth stand before Thee, Since Thou hast been angry!
8 Osalira abantu emisango ng’osinziira mu ggulu, ensi n’etya n’ekankana n’esirika olw’obusungu bwo,
From heaven Thou hast sounded judgment, Earth hath feared, and hath been still,
9 bw’ogolokoka okusala omusango, okuwonya ababonyaabonyezebwa mu nsi.
In the rising of God to judgment, To save all the humble of earth. (Selah)
10 Bw’osunguwalira omuntu kikuleetera okutenderezebwa, n’abo b’otasunguwalidde ne beegendereza.
For the fierceness of man praiseth Thee, The remnant of fierceness Thou girdest on.
11 Mweyame obweyamo bwammwe eri Mukama Katonda wammwe, era mubutuukirizenga; bonna abamuli okumpi bamuleetere ebirabo, kubanga asaanidde okutiibwa.
Vow and complete to Jehovah your God, All ye surrounding him. They bring presents to the Fearful One.
12 Mukama akkakkanya abalangira, ne bakabaka b’ensi bamutya.
He doth gather the spirit of leaders, Fearful to the kings of earth!
