Zabbuli 95
1 Mujje tuyimbire Mukama; tuyimbire waggulu n’essanyu nga tutendereza Mukama Olwazi olw’obulokozi bwaffe.
Come, let's sing for joy to the Lord! Let's shout in triumph to the rock of our salvation!
2 Tujje mu maaso ge n’okwebaza; tumuyimbire ennyimba ez’okumutendereza.
Let's go before him with thanksgiving! Let's sing loudly to him in celebration!
3 Kubanga Mukama ye Katonda Omukulu; era Kabaka Omukulu asinga bakatonda bonna.
For the Lord is a great God, a great king above all gods.
4 Enkonko ez’ensi ziri mu mukono gwe; n’entikko z’ensozi nazo zize.
He rules over the depths of the earth and the heights of the mountains.
5 Ennyanja yiye, kubanga ye yagikola; n’emikono gye, gye gyabumba olukalu.
The sea is his, because he made it; the dry land, because he formed it.
6 Mujje tusinze tuvuuname mu maaso ge; tufukamire mu maaso ga Mukama, Omutonzi waffe.
Come, let's enter in and worship, let's kneel before the Lord our Creator.
7 Kubanga ye Katonda waffe, naffe tuli bantu ab’omu ddundiro lye, era tuli ndiga ze z’alabirira. Olwa leero bwe muwulira eddoboozi lye,
For he is our God, and we are the people he looks after like a shepherd, the flock he cares for. If you hear his voice calling you today,
8 “Temukakanyaza mitima gyammwe nga bwe kyali e Meriba, ne ku lunaku luli e Maasa mu ddungu;
don't have a hard-hearted attitude, “as you did at Meribah, as you did that day at Massah in the desert,
9 bajjajjammwe gye bangezesa; newaakubadde baali baalaba dda ebyamagero bye nakola.
when your forefathers provoked me, testing my patience, even though they had seen everything I'd done.
10 Abantu b’omulembe ogwo ne mbasunguwalira okumala emyaka amakumi ana; ne ŋŋamba nti, ‘Be bantu abakyama mu mutima gwabwe, era tebamanyi makubo gange.’
For forty years I was disgusted with that generation, and I said, ‘They are people who are unfaithful to me in their minds, and they refuse to accept my ways.’
11 Kyennava ndayira nga nsunguwadde nti, ‘Tebaliyingira mu kiwummulo kyange.’”
So in my frustration I vowed, ‘They will certainly not enter my rest.’”
