Psalms 52
1 For the leader. A maskil of David, when Doeg the Edomite came and told Saul that David had gone to Abimelech’s house. Why glory in mischief, you hero? God’s kindness is all the day.
Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Zabbuli ya Dawudi Dowegi Omwedomu bwe yagenda n’abuulira Sawulo nti, “Dawudi alaze mu nnyumba ya Akimereki.” Lwaki weenyumiririza mu kibi ggwe omusajja ow’amaanyi? Endagaano ya Katonda ey’obwesigwa ebeerera emirembe n’emirembe.
2 Engulfing ruin you plot, your tongue like a razor sharpened, you practiser of deceit.
Oteekateeka enkwe ez’okuzikiriza. Olulimi lwo lwogi nga kkirita era buli kiseera lwogera bya bulimba.
3 Evil, not good, you love, and falsehood, not words of truth. (Selah)
Oyagala okukola ebibi okusinga okukola ebirungi, n’okulimba okusinga okwogera amazima.
4 But you love all words that devour, and a tongue that is given to deceit.
Osanyukira nnyo okwogera ebirumya. Ggwe olulimi kalimbira!
5 But God, on his part, shall destroy you forever, grasp you and pluck you out of your tent, and root you out of the land of the living. (Selah)
Kyokka Katonda alikuzikiriza emirembe gyonna; alikusikula, akuggye mu maka go; alikugoba mu nsi y’abalamu.
6 Smitten with awe at the sight, the righteous shall laugh at you.
Bino abatuukirivu balibiraba, ne babitunuulira nga batidde. Naye balikusekerera, nga bwe bagamba nti,
7 ‘Look’ (they will say) ‘at the hero who did not make God his stronghold, but trusted in his great wealth and in the strength of his riches.’
“Mumulabe omusajja ateesiga Katonda okuba ekiddukiro kye, naye ne yeesiganga obugagga bwe obungi, ne yeeyongera n’amaanyi ng’azikiriza abalala.”
8 But I am like a fresh olive-tree in the house of God. I trust in the kindness of God for ever and evermore.
Naye nze nfaanana ng’omuti omuzeyituuni ogukulira mu nnyumba ya Katonda. Neesiga okwagala kwa Katonda okutaggwaawo emirembe n’emirembe.
9 I will render you thanks for ever for what you have done. I will tell how good you are in the presence of those who love you.
Nnaakwebazanga emirembe gyonna olw’ekyo ky’okoze. Nneesiganga erinnya lyo kubanga erinnya lyo ddungi; era nnaakutendererezanga awali abatuukirivu bo.
