Zabbuli 9
1 Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Eyimbibwa okujjukira Okufa kw’Omwana. Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Nnaakutenderezanga, Ayi Mukama n’omutima gwange gwonna; nnaayolesanga ebikolwa byo eby’ekitalo byonna.
For the Chief Musician. Set to “The Death of the Son.” A Psalm by David. I will give thanks to the LORD with my whole heart. I will tell of all your marvelous works.
2 Nnaasanyukanga era nnaajagulizanga mu ggwe. Nnaayimbanga nga ntendereza erinnya lyo, Ayi Mukama Ali Waggulu Ennyo.
I will be glad and rejoice in you. I will sing praise to your name, O Most High.
3 Abalabe bange bazzeeyo emabega, beesittadde ne bazikiririra mu maaso go.
When my enemies turn back, they stumble and perish in your presence.
4 Kubanga owagidde ebiŋŋwanira, n’ensonga zange; era otudde ku ntebe yo ey’obwakabaka n’osala omusango mu bwenkanya.
For you have maintained my just cause. You sit on the throne judging righteously.
5 Waboggolera amawanga, n’ozikiriza ababi; erinnya lyabwe n’olisangulirawo ddala emirembe n’emirembe.
You have rebuked the nations. You have destroyed the wicked. You have blotted out their name forever and ever.
6 Abalabe obamaliddewo ddala, n’ebibuga byabwe obizikirizza, era tewali aliddayo kubijjukira.
The enemy is overtaken by endless ruin. The very memory of the cities which you have overthrown has perished.
7 Naye Mukama afuga emirembe gyonna; era ataddewo entebe ye ey’okusalirako emisango.
But the LORD reigns forever. He has prepared his throne for judgment.
8 Aliramula ensi mu butuukirivu, era alisalira abantu bonna emisango mu bwenkanya.
He will judge the world in righteousness. He will administer judgment to the peoples in uprightness.
9 Mukama kye kiddukiro ky’abo abanyigirizibwa; era kye kigo kyabwe mu biseera eby’akabi.
The LORD will also be a high tower for the oppressed; a high tower in times of trouble.
10 Abo abamanyi erinnya lyo, Ayi Mukama, banaakwesiganga; kubanga abakunoonya tobaleka bokka.
Those who know your name will put their trust in you, for you, LORD, have not forsaken those who seek you.
11 Muyimbe okutendereza Mukama, atudde ku ntebe ey’obwakabaka mu Sayuuni; mutegeeze amawanga gonna by’akoze.
Sing praises to the LORD, who dwells in Zion, and declare among the people what he has done.
12 Ajjukira n’awoolera eggwanga era assaayo omwoyo eri abo abanyigirizibwa.
For he who avenges blood remembers them. He doesn’t forget the cry of the afflicted.
13 Onsaasire, Ayi Mukama; otunuulire abalabe bange abangigganya, onzigye ku miryango gy’okufa.
Have mercy on me, LORD. See my affliction by those who hate me, and lift me up from the gates of death,
14 Ndyoke nkutenderezenga mu lwatu mu miryango gy’omuwala wa Sayuuni: era njagulizenga mu bulokozi bwo.
that I may show all of your praise. I will rejoice in your salvation in the gates of the daughter of Zion.
15 Abantu mu mawanga bagudde mu binnya bye baasima; era n’emitego gyabwe gimasuse ne gibakwasa.
The nations have sunk down in the pit that they made. In the net which they hid, their own foot is taken.
16 Mukama yeeraze nga bw’asala emisango egy’ensonga. Omubi akwatiddwa mu mutego gw’emikono gye.
The LORD has made himself known. He has executed judgment. The wicked is snared by the work of his own hands. (Meditation, Selah)
The wicked shall be turned back to Sheol, even all the nations that forget God. (Sheol h7585)
18 Kubanga abali mu kwetaaga tebalyerabirwa ennaku zonna, era n’ababonyaabonyezebwa tebaliggwaamu ssuubi emirembe gyonna.
For the needy shall not always be forgotten, nor the hope of the poor perish forever.
19 Ogolokoke, Ayi Mukama, tokkiriza muntu kuwangula; leka amawanga gasalirwe omusango mu maaso go.
Arise, LORD! Don’t let man prevail. Let the nations be judged in your sight.
20 Bakankanye n’okutya, Ayi Mukama; amawanga gonna galyoke gategeere nti bantu buntu.
Put them in fear, LORD. Let the nations know that they are only men. (Selah)
