Zabbuli 98

1 Zabbuli. Muyimbire Mukama oluyimba oluggya, kubanga akoze eby’ekitalo. Omukono gwe ogwa ddyo, era omukono omutukuvu, gumuwadde obuwanguzi.

A Psalm. O make a new song to the Lord, because he has done works of wonder; with his right hand, and with his holy arm, he has overcome.

2 Mukama ayolesezza obulokozi bwe, era abikkulidde amawanga obutuukirivu bwe.

The Lord has given to all the knowledge of his salvation; he has made clear his righteousness in the eyes of the nations.

3 Ajjukidde okwagala kwe okutakoma n’obwesigwa bwe eri ennyumba ya Isirayiri. Enkomerero z’ensi yonna zirabye obulokozi bwa Katonda waffe.

He has kept in mind his mercy and his unchanging faith to the house of Israel; all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.

4 Muyimbire Mukama n’essanyu lingi mwe ensi yonna; muyimbe ennyimba mu maloboozi ag’essanyu.

Let all the earth send out a glad cry to the Lord; sounding with a loud voice, and praising him with songs of joy.

5 Mutendereze Mukama n’ennanga ez’enkoba; n’ennanga ez’enkoba n’amaloboozi ag’okuyimba,

Make melody to the Lord with instruments of music; with a corded instrument and the voice of song.

6 n’amakondeere n’eddoboozi ly’eŋŋombe. Muyimbe n’essanyu mu maaso ga Mukama era Kabaka.

With wind instruments and the sound of the horn, make a glad cry before the Lord, the King.

7 Ennyanja eyire ne byonna ebigirimu, n’ensi ne byonna ebigirimu bijaguze.

Let the sea be thundering, with all its waters; the world, and all who are living in it;

8 Emigga gikube mu ngalo n’ensozi zonna ziyimbire wamu olw’essanyu;

Let the streams make sounds of joy with their hands; let the mountains be glad together,

9 byonna biyimbe mu maaso ga Mukama, kubanga ajja okulamula ensi. Aliramula ensi mu butuukirivu; aliramula amawanga mu bwenkanya.

Before the Lord, for he has come as judge of the earth; judging the world in righteousness, and giving true decisions for the peoples.
