Psalms 77
1 Unto the end, for Idithun, a psalm of Asaph. I cried to the Lord with my voice; to God with my voice, and he gave ear to me.
Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Zabbuli ya Asafu. Nnaakaabirira Katonda ambeere, ddala nnaakaabirira Katonda nga musaba ampulire.
2 In the day of my trouble I sought God, with my hands lifted up to him in the night, and I was not deceived. My soul refused to be comforted:
Bwe nnali mu nnaku, nanoonya Mukama, ekiro kyonna ne ngolola emikono gyange obutakoowa; emmeeme yange neegaana okusanyusibwa.
3 I remembered God, and was delighted, and was exercised, and my spirit swooned away.
Nakujjukiranga, Ayi Katonda ne nsinda, ne nfumiitiriza emmeeme yange n’ezirika.
4 My eyes prevented the watches: I was troubled, and I spoke not.
Tewaŋŋanya kwebaka; natawaanyizibwa nnyo ne sisobola kwogera.
5 I thought upon the days of old: and I had in my mind the eternal years.
Ne ndowooza ku biseera eby’edda, ne nzijukira emyaka egyayita.
6 And I meditated in the night with my own heart: and I was exercised and I swept my spirit.
Najjukiranga ennyimba zange ekiro, ne nfumiitiriza nga bwe neebuuza mu mutima gwange nti:
7 Will God then cast off for ever? or will he never be more favourable again?
“Mukama anaatusuuliranga ddala ennaku zonna naataddayo kutulaga kisa kye?
8 Or will he cut off his mercy for ever, from generation to generation?
Okwagala kwe okutaggwaawo kukomedde ddala? Kye yasuubiza kibulidde ddala emirembe n’emirembe?
9 Or will God forget to shew mercy? or will he in his anger shut up his mercies?
Katonda yeerabidde ekisa kye? Asunguwalidde ddala ne yeggyako n’okusaasira kwe?”
10 And I said, Now have I begun: this is the change of the right hand of the most High.
Awo ne ndowooza nti, “Ebyo bye mmanyi eby’emyaka emingi eby’omukono ogwa ddyo ogw’oyo Ali Waggulu Ennyo.”
11 I remembered the works of the Lord: for I will be mindful of thy wonders from the beginning.
Nnajjukiranga ebikolwa bya Mukama, weewaawo, nnajjukiranga ebyamagero byo eby’edda.
12 And I will meditate on all thy works: and will be employed in thy inventions.
Nnaafumiitirizanga ku bikolwa byo byonna eby’amaanyi; nnaalowoozanga ku byamagero byo byonna.
13 Thy way, O God, is in the holy place: who is the great God like our God?
Ekkubo lyo, Ayi Katonda, liri mu watukuvu. Tewali katonda yenkana Katonda waffe.
14 Thou art the God that dost wonders. Thou hast made thy power known among the nations:
Ggwe Katonda akola eby’amagero; era amaanyi go ogalaga mu mawanga.
15 With thy arm thou hast redeemed thy people the children of Jacob and of Joseph.
Wanunula abantu bo n’omukono gwo, abazzukulu ba Yakobo ne Yusufu.
16 The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee: and they were afraid, and the depths were troubled.
Amazzi gaakulaba, Ayi Katonda; amazzi bwe gaakulaba ne gatya, n’obuziba ne bukankanira ddala.
17 Great was the noise of the waters: the clouds sent out a sound. For thy arrows pass:
Ebire byayiwa amazzi ne bivaamu n’okubwatuka, era n’obusaale bwo ne bubuna.
18 The voice of thy thunder in a wheel. Thy lightnings enlightened the world: the earth shook and trembled.
Eddoboozi lyo ery’okubwatuka lyawulirwa mu kikuŋŋunta okumyansa kwo ne kumulisa ensi. Ensi n’ekankana n’enyeenyezebwa.
19 Thy way is in the sea, and thy paths in many waters: and thy footsteps shall not be known.
Ekkubo lyo lyali mu nnyanja; wayita mu mazzi amangi, naye ebigere mwe walinnya tebyalabika.
20 Thou hast conducted thy people like sheep, by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
Wakulembera abantu bo ng’ekisibo, nga bali mu mikono gya Musa ne Alooni.
