Psalms 20

1 Unto the end. A psalm for David. May the Lord hear thee in the day of tribulation: may the name of the God of Jacob protect thee.

Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Mukama akwanukulenga ng’oli mu buzibu. Erinnya lya Katonda wa Yakobo likukuumenga.

2 May he send thee help from the sanctuary: and defend thee out of Sion.

Akuweerezenga obuyambi obuva mu kifo kye ekitukuvu; akudduukirirenga okuva ku lusozi Sayuuni.

3 May he be mindful of all thy sacrifices: and may thy whole burnt offering be made fat.

Ajjukirenga ssaddaaka zo zonna z’omuwa, era asiimenga ebiweebwayo byo ebyokebwa.

4 May he give thee according to thy own heart; and confirm all thy counsels.

Akuwenga omutima gwo bye gwetaaga, era atuukirizenga by’oteekateeka byonna.

5 We will rejoice in thy salvation; and in the name of our God we shall be exalted.

Tulijaganya olw’obuwanguzi bwo, ne tuwuuba ebendera zaffe mu linnya lya Katonda waffe. Mukama akuwenga byonna by’omusaba.

6 The Lord fulfill all thy petitions: now have I known that the Lord hath saved his anointed. He will hear him from his holy heaven: the salvation of his right hand is in powers.

Kaakano ntegedde nga Mukama awanguza oyo gwe yafukako amafuta, amwanukula ng’amuwa obuwanguzi n’omukono gwe ogwa ddyo, ng’asinziira mu ggulu lye ettukuvu.

7 Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will call upon the name of the Lord our God.

Abamu beesiga amagaali, n’abalala beesiga embalaasi, naye ffe twesiga erinnya lya Mukama Katonda waffe.

8 They are bound, and have fallen; but we are risen, and are set upright.

Batalantuka ne bagwa wansi ne balemerawo, naye ffe tugolokoka ne tuyimirira nga tuli banywevu.

9 O Lord, save the king: and hear us in the day that we shall call upon thee.

Ayi Mukama, lokola kabaka, otwanukule bwe tukukoowoola.
