Zabbuli 87

1 Zabbuli ya Batabani ba Koola. Oluyimba. Atadde emisingi gye ku lusozi olutukuvu.

A Psalm by the sons of Korah; a Song. His foundation is in the holy mountains.

2 Mukama ayagala emiryango gya Sayuuni okusinga ennyumba zonna eza Yakobo.

The LORD loves the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.

3 Ebintu eby’ekitiibwa bikwogerwako, ggwe ekibuga kya Katonda.

Glorious things are spoken about you, city of God. (Selah)

4 “Mu mawanga ge mmanyi mwe muli Lakabu, ne Babulooni; era ndyogera ku Bufirisuuti, ne ku Ttuulo ne ku Esiyopya nti, ‘Ono yazaalirwa mu Sayuuni.’”

I will record Rahab and Babylon amongst those who acknowledge me. Behold, Philistia, Tyre, and also Ethiopia: “This one was born there.”

5 Bwe baliba boogera ku Sayuuni baligamba nti, “Ono n’oli baazaalirwa omwo,” n’oyo Ali Waggulu Ennyo alikinyweza.

Yes, of Zion it will be said, “This one and that one was born in her;” the Most High himself will establish her.

6 Mukama aliwandiika mu kitabo bw’ati, omuli amannya g’abantu nti, “Ono yazaalibwa omwo.”

The LORD will count, when he writes up the peoples, “This one was born there.” (Selah)

7 Banaakubanga ebivuga nga bwe bayimba nti, “Ensulo zange zonna ziri mu ggwe.”

Those who sing as well as those who dance say, “All my springs are in you.”
