Zabbuli 8

1 Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Ayi Mukama, Mukama waffe, erinnya lyo nga ddungi era kkulu nnyo mu nsi yonna! Ekitiibwa kyo kitenderezebwa okutuuka waggulu mu ggulu.

For the Chief Musician; on an instrument of Gath. A Psalm by David. LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory above the heavens!

2 Abaana abato n’abawere wabawa amaanyi okukutendereza; ne basirisa omulabe wo n’oyo ayagala okwesasuza.

From the lips of babes and infants you have established strength, because of your adversaries, that you might silence the enemy and the avenger.

3 Bwe ntunuulira eggulu lyo, omulimu gw’engalo zo, omwezi n’emmunyeenye bye watonda;

When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have ordained,

4 omuntu kye ki ggwe okumujjukira, omuntu obuntu ggwe okumussaako omwoyo?

what is man, that you think of him? What is the son of man, that you care for him?

5 Kubanga wamukola n’abulako katono okuba nga Katonda; n’omussaako engule ey’obukulu n’ekitiibwa.

For you have made him a little lower than the angels, and crowned him with glory and honour.

6 Wamukwasa okufuga ebintu byonna bye wakola n’emikono gyo: byonna wabissa wansi w’ebigere bye,

You make him ruler over the works of your hands. You have put all things under his feet:

7 ebisibo n’amagana ag’ebisolo byonna eby’omu nsiko,

All sheep and cattle, yes, and the animals of the field,

8 n’ennyonyi ez’omu bbanga, n’ebyennyanja eby’omu nnyanja; era na buli kiramu kyonna ekiyita mu nnyanja.

the birds of the sky, the fish of the sea, and whatever passes through the paths of the seas.

9 Ayi Mukama, Mukama waffe, erinnya lyo nga ddungi era kkulu nnyo mu nsi yonna!

LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!
