Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Ya Yedusuni. Zabbuli ya Dawudi.

62 (A)Emmeeme yange ewummulira mu Katonda yekka;
    oyo obulokozi bwange mwe buva.
(B)Ye yekka, lwe lwazi lwange era bwe bulokozi bwange;
    ye kye kigo kyange siinyeenyezebwenga n’akatono.

(C)Mulituusa ddi nga mulumba omuntu,
    mmwe mwenna okwagala okumusuula wansi
    ng’ekisenge ekyewunzise era ng’olukomera oluyuuguuma?
(D)Bateesa okumuggya
    mu kifo kye ekinywevu,
    basanyukira eby’obulimba.
Basaba omukisa n’emimwa gyabwe
    so nga munda bakolima.

Emmeeme yange ewummulire mu Katonda yekka;
    kubanga mu ye mwe muli essuubi lyange.
Ye yekka lwe lwazi lwange era bwe bulokozi bwange,
    ye kye kigo kyange, siinyeenyezebwenga.
(E)Okulokolebwa kwange n’ekitiibwa kyange biri mu Katonda yekka;
    ye lwe lwazi lwange olw’amaanyi era kye kiddukiro kyange.
(F)Mumwesigenga bulijjo mmwe abantu,
    mumutegeezenga byonna ebiri mu mitima gyammwe,
    kubanga Katonda kye kiddukiro kyaffe.

(G)Abaana b’abantu mukka bukka,
    abazaalibwa mu bugagga bulimba bwereere;
ne bwe bageraageranyizibwa ku minzaani,
    n’omukka gubasinga okuzitowa.
10 (H)Temwesigamanga ku bujoozi
    wadde ku bintu ebibbe.
Temuyitirira okwewaanirawaanira mu bugagga bwammwe ne bwe bweyongeranga,
    era temubumalirangako mwoyo gwammwe.

11 Katonda ayogedde ekintu kimu,
    kyokka nze nziggyemu ebintu bibiri nti:
Katonda, oli w’amaanyi,
12     (I)era ggwe, Ayi Mukama, ojjudde okwagala.
Ddala olisasula buli muntu
    ng’ebikolwa bye bwe biri.

Psalm 62[a]

For the director of music. For Jeduthun. A psalm of David.

Truly my soul finds rest(A) in God;(B)
    my salvation comes from him.
Truly he is my rock(C) and my salvation;(D)
    he is my fortress,(E) I will never be shaken.(F)

How long will you assault me?
    Would all of you throw me down—
    this leaning wall,(G) this tottering fence?
Surely they intend to topple me
    from my lofty place;
    they take delight in lies.
With their mouths they bless,
    but in their hearts they curse.[b](H)

Yes, my soul, find rest in God;(I)
    my hope comes from him.
Truly he is my rock and my salvation;
    he is my fortress, I will not be shaken.
My salvation and my honor depend on God[c];
    he is my mighty rock, my refuge.(J)
Trust in him at all times, you people;(K)
    pour out your hearts to him,(L)
    for God is our refuge.

Surely the lowborn(M) are but a breath,(N)
    the highborn are but a lie.
If weighed on a balance,(O) they are nothing;
    together they are only a breath.
10 Do not trust in extortion(P)
    or put vain hope in stolen goods;(Q)
though your riches increase,
    do not set your heart on them.(R)

11 One thing God has spoken,
    two things I have heard:
“Power belongs to you, God,(S)
12     and with you, Lord, is unfailing love”;(T)
and, “You reward everyone
    according to what they have done.”(U)
