Zabbuli 86
1 Okusaba kwa Dawudi. Otege okutu kwo, Ayi Mukama, owulire okusaba kwange, onnyanukule, kubanga ndi mwavu atalina kintu.
BOW down thine ear, O Lord, hear me: for I am poor and needy.
2 Okuume obulamu bwange, kubanga nkuweereza n’obwesigwa. Katonda wange, ondokole nze omuddu wo akwesiga.
Preserve my soul; for I am holy: O thou my God, save thy servant that trusteth in thee.
3 Onsaasire, Ayi Mukama, kubanga olunaku lwonna nsiiba nkukoowoola.
Be merciful unto me, O Lord: for I cry unto thee daily.
4 Osanyuse omuweereza wo Ayi Mukama; kubanga omwoyo gwange nguyimusa eyo gy’oli.
Rejoice the soul of thy servant: for unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.
5 Ddala ddala olina ekisa era osonyiwa, Ayi Mukama; n’abo bonna abakukoowoola obaagala nnyo.
For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon thee.
6 Owulire okusaba kwange, Ayi Mukama; owulirize eddoboozi erikaabirira ekisa kyo.
Give ear, O Lord, unto my prayer; and attend to the voice of my supplications.
7 Bwe nnaabanga mu buzibu nnaakukoowoolanga; kubanga ononnyanukulanga.
In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee: for thou wilt answer me.
8 Mu bakatonda bonna tewali ali nga ggwe, Ayi Mukama; era teriiyo akola bikolwa ng’ebibyo.
Among the gods there is none like unto thee, O Lord; neither are there any works like unto thy works.
9 Ayi Mukama amawanga gonna ge watonda ganajjanga mu maaso go ne gakusinza; era ne bagulumiza erinnya lyo ery’ekitiibwa.
All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship before thee, O Lord; and shall glorify thy name.
10 Kubanga oli mukulu, era okola ebyewunyisa; ggwe wekka ggwe Katonda.
For thou art great, and doest wondrous things: thou art God alone.
11 Onjigirize ekkubo lyo, Ayi Mukama, ntambulirenga mu mazima go; ompe omutima omunywevu ogutasagaasagana, ntyenga erinnya lyo.
Teach me thy way, O Lord; I will walk in thy truth: unite my heart to fear thy name.
12 Nnaakutenderezanga, Ayi Mukama Katonda wange, n’omutima gwange gwonna; erinnya lyo nnaaligulumizanga emirembe gyonna.
I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with all my heart: and I will glorify thy name for evermore.
For great is thy mercy toward me: and thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest hell. (Sheol h7585)
14 Ayi Katonda, ab’amalala bannumba, ekibinja ky’abantu abataliimu kusaasira bannoonya okunzita, be bantu abatakufiirako ddala.
O God, the proud are risen against me, and the assemblies of violent men have sought after my soul; and have not set thee before them.
15 Naye ggwe, Mukama Katonda oli musaasizi era ow’ekisa, olwawo okusunguwala, ojjudde okwagala n’obwesigwa.
But thou, O Lord, art a God full of compassion, and gracious, longsuffering, and plenteous in mercy and truth.
16 Onkyukire, onsaasire, ompe amaanyi go nze omuweereza wo; nze omwana w’omuweereza wo omukazi ondokole.
O turn unto me, and have mercy upon me; give thy strength unto thy servant, and save the son of thine handmaid.
17 Nkolera akabonero akalaga ebirungi byo, abalabe bange bakalabe baswale; kubanga ggwe, Ayi Mukama, onnyambye era onzizizzaamu amaanyi.
Shew me a token for good; that they which hate me may see it, and be ashamed: because thou, Lord, hast holpen me, and comforted me.
