< Psalms 56 >

1 For the end, concerning the people that were removed from the sanctuary, by David for a memorial, when the Philistines caught him in Geth. Have mercy upon me, O God; for man has trodden me down; all the day long he warring has afflicted me.
Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Abafirisuuti bwe baamukwatira mu Gaasi. Onsaasire, Ayi Katonda, kubanga abalabe bange banjigganya; buli lunaku bannumba n’amaanyi.
2 Mine enemies have trodden me down all the day from the dawning of the day; for there are many warring against me.
Abalabe bange bannondoola, bangi bannwanyisa nga bajjudde amalala.
3 They shall be afraid, but I will trust in you.
Buli lwe ntya, neesiga ggwe.
4 In God I will praise my words; all the day have I hoped in God; I will not fear what flesh shall do to me.
Nditendereza Katonda ne nyweerera mu kigambo kye, ye Katonda gwe neesiga; siityenga. Abantu obuntu bagenda kunkolako ki?
5 All the day long they have abominated my words; all their devices [are] against me for evil.
Olunaku lwonna bye njogera babifuulafuula; ebbanga lyonna baba basala nkwe kunkola kabi.
6 They will dwell near and hide [themselves]; they will watch my steps, accordingly as I have waited patiently in my soul.
Beekobaana ne bateesa, banneekwekerera ne bawuliriza enswagiro zange; nga bannindirira banzite.
7 You will on no account save them; you will bring down the people in wrath.
Tobakkiriza kudduka ne bawona; mu busungu bwo, Ayi Katonda, osuule amawanga.
8 O God, I have declared my life to you; you has set my tears before you, even according to your promise.
Emirundi gye ntawaanyizibwa nga njaziirana ogimanyi; amaziga gange gateeke mu ccupa yo! Wagawandiika.
9 Mine enemies shall be turned back, in the day wherein I shall call upon you; behold, I know that you are my God.
Bwe nkukoowoola, abalabe bange nga badduka. Kino nkimanyi kubanga Katonda ali ku ludda lwange.
10 In God, will I praise [his] word; in the Lord will I praise [his] saying.
Katonda gwe ntendereza olw’ekisuubizo kye; Mukama gwe ntendereza olw’ekisuubizo kye;
11 I have hoped in God; I will not be afraid of what man shall do to me.
Katonda oyo gwe neesiga, siityenga. Abantu bayinza kunkolako ki?
12 The vows of your praise, O God, which I will pay, are upon me.
Ndituukiriza obweyamo bwange gy’oli, Ayi Katonda; ndikuleetera ebirabo eby’okukwebaza.
13 For you have delivered my soul from death, and my feet from sliding, that I should be well-pleasing before God in the land of the living.
Kubanga emmeeme yange ogiwonyezza okufa. Ebigere byange tobiwonyezza okwesittala; ne ndyoka ntambulira mu maaso ga Katonda mu musana nga ndi mulamu?
