Psalms 16
1 The inscription of a title to David himself. Preserve me, O Lord, for I have put trust in thee.
Ya Dawudi. Onkuume, Ayi Katonda, kubanga ggwe buddukiro bwange.
2 I have said to the Lord, thou art my God, for thou hast no need of my goods.
Nagamba Mukama nti, “Ggwe Mukama wange, ebirungi byonna bye nnina biva gy’oli.”
3 To the saints, who are in his land, he hath made wonderful all my desires in them.
Abatukuvu abali mu nsi be njagala era mu bo mwe nsanyukira.
4 Their infirmities were multiplied: afterwards they made haste. I will not gather together their meetings for blood offerings: nor will I be mindful of their names by my lips.
Ennaku y’abo abagoberera bakatonda abalala yeeyongera. Siriwaayo ssaddaaka zaabwe ez’omusaayi, wadde okusinza bakatonda baabwe.
5 The Lord is the portion of my inheritance and of my cup: it is thou that wilt restore my inheritance to me.
Mukama, ggwe mugabo gwange, era ggw’oliisa obulamu bwange; era ggw’olabirira ebyange.
6 The lines are fallen unto me in goodly places: for my inheritance is goodly to me.
Ensalo zange ziri mu bifo ebisanyusa, ddala ddala omugabo omulungi.
7 I will bless the Lord, who hath given me understanding: moreover my reins also have corrected me even till night.
Nnaatenderezanga Mukama kubanga annuŋŋamya ne mu kiro ayigiriza omutima gwange.
8 I set the Lord always in my sight: for he is at my right hand, that I be not moved.
Nkulembeza Mukama buli kiseera, era ali ku mukono gwange ogwa ddyo, siinyeenyezebwenga.
9 Therefore my heart hath been glad, and my tongue hath rejoiced: moreover my flesh also shall rest in hope.
Noolwekyo omutima gwange gusanyuka, n’akamwa kange ne kajaguza; era n’omubiri gwange gunaabeeranga mu mirembe.
10 Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; nor wilt then give thy holy one to see corruption. (Sheol h7585)
Kubanga omwoyo gwange toliguleka magombe, wadde okukkiriza Omutukuvu wo okuvunda. (Sheol h7585)
11 Thou hast made known to me the ways of life, thou shalt fill me with joy with thy countenance: at thy right hand are delights even to the end.
Olindaga ekkubo ery’obulamu; w’oli we wanaabanga essanyu erijjuvu, era mu mukono gwo ogwa ddyo nga mwe muli ebisanyusa emirembe gyonna.
