Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Ku ddoboozi, “Tozikiriza.” Zabbuli ya Dawudi.
58 (A)Ddala mwogera eby’amazima oba musirika busirisi?
Abaana b’abantu mubasalira emisango mu bwenkanya?
2 (B)Nedda, mutegeka ebitali bya bwenkanya mu mitima gyammwe;
era bye mukola bireeta obwegugungo mu nsi.
3 Abakola ebibi bakyama nga baakazaalibwa,
bava mu lubuto nga balina ekibi, era bakula boogera bya bulimba.
4 (C)Balina obusagwa ng’obw’omusota;
bali ng’enswera etawulira ezibikira amatu gaayo;
5 n’etawulira na luyimba lwa mukugu
agisendasenda okugikwata.
6 (D)Ayi Katonda, menya amannyo gaabwe;
owangulemu amannyo g’empologoma zino, Ayi Mukama.
7 (E)Leka babule ng’amazzi agakulukuta ne gagenda.
Bwe banaanuula omutego, leka obusaale bwabwe bwe balasa bufufuggale.
8 (F)Babe ng’ekkovu erisaanuukira mu lugendo lwalyo.
Babe ng’omwana azaaliddwa ng’afudde, ataliraba ku njuba!
9 (G)Nga n’entamu tennabuguma,
alibayerawo n’obusungu obungi nga kibuyaga ow’amaanyi ennyo.
10 (H)Omutuukirivu alisanyuka ng’alabye bamuwalanidde eggwanga,
olwo n’ebigere bye ne bisaabaana omusaayi ogw’abakola ebibi.
11 (I)Awo abantu bonna balyogera nti,
“Ddala, abatuukirivu balwanirirwa.
Ddala waliwo Katonda alamula mu bwenkanya ku nsi.”
Psalm 58
New International Version
Psalm 58
New International Version
Psalm 58[a]
For the director of music. To the tune of “Do Not Destroy.” Of David. A miktam.[b]
1 Do you rulers indeed speak justly?(A)
Do you judge people with equity?
2 No, in your heart you devise injustice,(B)
and your hands mete out violence on the earth.(C)
3 Even from birth the wicked go astray;
from the womb they are wayward, spreading lies.
4 Their venom is like the venom of a snake,(D)
like that of a cobra that has stopped its ears,
5 that will not heed(E) the tune of the charmer,(F)
however skillful the enchanter may be.
6 Break the teeth in their mouths, O God;(G)
Lord, tear out the fangs of those lions!(H)
7 Let them vanish like water that flows away;(I)
when they draw the bow, let their arrows fall short.(J)
8 May they be like a slug that melts away as it moves along,(K)
like a stillborn child(L) that never sees the sun.
9 Before your pots can feel the heat of the thorns(M)—
whether they be green or dry—the wicked will be swept away.[c](N)
10 The righteous will be glad(O) when they are avenged,(P)
when they dip their feet in the blood of the wicked.(Q)
11 Then people will say,
“Surely the righteous still are rewarded;(R)
surely there is a God who judges the earth.”(S)
