Psalms 31
1 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness.
Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Ayi Mukama, ggwe kiddukiro kyange, leka nneme kuswazibwa. Ndokola mu butuukirivu bwo.
2 Bow down thine ear unto me; deliver me speedily: be thou to me a strong rock, an house of defence to save me.
Ontegere okutu kwo oyanguwe okunziruukirira. Beera ekiddukiro kyange eky’olwazi era ekigo eky’amaanyi eky’okumponya.
3 For thou art my rock and my fortress; therefore for thy name’s sake lead me and guide me.
Nga bw’oli olwazi lwange era ekigo kyange; olw’erinnya lyo onkulembebere era onnuŋŋamye.
4 Pluck me out of the net that they have laid privily for me; for thou art my strong hold.
Omponye mu mutego gwe banteze; kubanga ggwe kiddukiro kyange.
5 Into thine hand I commend my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, O LORD, thou God of truth.
Nteeka omwoyo gwange mu mikono gyo; ondokole, Ayi Mukama, Katonda ow’amazima.
6 I hate them that regard lying vanities: but I trust in the LORD.
Nkyawa abo abeesiga bakatonda abalala; nze nneesiga Mukama.
7 I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy: for thou hast seen my affliction; thou hast known my soul in adversities:
Nnaajaguzanga ne nsanyukira mu kwagala kwo, kubanga olabye okubonaabona kwange era omanyi ennaku endi ku mwoyo.
8 And thou hast not shut me up into the hand of the enemy; thou hast set my feet in a large place.
Tompaddeeyo mu balabe bange, naye otadde ebigere byange mu kifo ekigazi.
9 Have mercy upon me, O LORD, for I am in distress: mine eye wasteth away with grief, [yea], my soul and my body.
Onsaasire, Ayi Mukama, kubanga ndi mu nnaku nnyingi; amaaso gange gakooye olw’ennaku; omwoyo gwange n’omubiri gwange nabyo binafuye olw’obuyinike.
10 For my life is spent with sorrow, and my years with sighing: my strength faileth because of mine iniquity, and my bones are wasted away.
Obulamu bwange buweddewo olw’obunaku n’emyaka gyange ne giggwaawo olw’okusinda. Amaanyi gampweddemu olw’okwonoona kwange, n’amagumba ganafuye.
11 Because of all mine adversaries I am become a reproach, yea, unto my neighbours exceedingly, and a fear to mine acquaintance: they that did see me without fled from me.
Abalabe bange bonna bansekerera, banneetamiddwa. Nfuuse ekyenyinyalwa mu mikwano gyange, n’abandaba mu kkubo banziruka.
12 I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind: I am like a broken vessel.
Nneerabiddwa ng’eyafa edda; nfuuse ng’ekibumbe ekyatifu.
13 For I have heard the defaming of many, terror on every side: while they took counsel together against me, they devised to take away my life.
Buli ludda mpulirayo obwama nga bangeya; bye banteesaako nga basala olukwe okunzita.
14 But I trusted in thee, O LORD: I said, Thou art my God.
Naye nneesiga ggwe, Ayi Mukama; nga njogera nti, “Oli Katonda wange.”
15 My times are in thy hand: deliver me from the hand of mine enemies, and from them that persecute me.
Entuuko zange ziri mu mikono gyo; ondokole mu mikono gy’abalabe bange n’abangigganya.
16 Make thy face to shine upon thy servant: save me in thy lovingkindness.
Amaaso go ogatunuulize omuweereza wo; ondokole n’okwagala kwo okutaggwaawo.
17 Let me not he ashamed, O LORD; for I have called upon thee: let the wicked be ashamed, let them be silent in Sheol. (Sheol h7585)
Ayi Mukama tondeka kuswazibwa, kubanga nkukoowoola; leka abo ababi baswale, era bagalamire emagombe nga basirise. (Sheol h7585)
18 Let the lying lips be dumb; which speak against the righteous insolently, with pride and contempt.
Akamwa kaabwe akayogera eby’obulimba kasirisibwe, kubanga boogera ebitaliimu ku batuukirivu bo, nga babyogeza amalala n’okunyooma.
19 Oh how great is thy goodness, which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee, which thou hast wrought for them that put their trust in thee, before the sons of men!
Obulungi bwo, bwe waterekera abo abakutya nga buyitirivu, n’obuwa mu lwatu abo abaddukira gy’oli.
20 In the covert of thy presence shalt thou hide them from the plottings of man: thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues.
Obalabirira n’obawonya enkwe z’abalabe baabwe, n’obakuuma bulungi mu nnyumba yo, n’ennyombo z’abantu ne zitabatuukako.
21 Blessed be the LORD: for he hath shewed me his marvelous lovingkindness in a strong city.
Mukama atenderezebwenga kubanga yandaga okwagala kwe okungi, bwe nnali mu kibuga kye baali bazingizza.
22 As for me, I said in my haste, I am cut off from before thine eyes: nevertheless thou heardest the voice of my supplications when I cried unto thee.
Bwe natya ennyo ne njogera nti, “Ngobeddwa mu maaso go.” Kyokka wampulira nga nkukaabirira n’onsaasira.
23 O love the LORD, all ye his saints: the LORD preserveth the faithful, and plentifully rewardeth the proud doer.
Mwagalenga Mukama abatukuvu be mwenna! Mukama akuuma abo abamwesiga, naye ab’amalala ababonereza mu bujjuvu.
24 Be strong, and let your heart take courage, all ye that hope in the LORD.
Muddeemu amaanyi mugume omwoyo mmwe mwenna abalina essuubi mu Mukama.
