Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Eyimbibwa n’ebivuga eby’enkoba. Zabbuli ya Asafu.

76 Katonda amanyiddwa mu Yuda;
    erinnya lye kkulu mu Isirayiri.
(A)Eweema ye eri mu Yerusaalemi;
    era abeera mu Sayuuni.
(B)Eyo gy’asinziira n’amenyaamenya obusaale bw’omulabe obujja bwesooza;
    n’engabo n’ebitala n’ebyokulwanyisa byonna eby’olutalo.

Owa ekitangaala,
    oli wa kitiibwa okusinga ensozi ennene eziriko ensolo eziyiggibwa.
(C)Ab’amaanyi bagalamira nga banyaguluddwa,
    beebaka ne batasobola kugolokoka,
ne watabaawo n’omu asobola
    okuyimusa omukono gwe.
(D)Bw’obaboggolera, Ayi Katonda wa Yakobo,
    abeebagala embalaasi ezisika ebigaali bagwiira wamu n’ebigaali ne batagolokoka.

(E)Ggwe ayi Katonda, osaanira okutiibwanga.
    Ani ayinza okuyimirira mu maaso go ng’osunguwadde?
(F)Osalira abantu emisango ng’osinziira mu ggulu,
    ensi n’etya n’ekankana n’esirika olw’obusungu bwo,
(G)bw’ogolokoka okusala omusango,
    okuwonya ababonyaabonyezebwa mu nsi.
10 (H)Bw’osunguwalira omuntu kikuleetera okutenderezebwa,
    n’abo b’otasunguwalidde ne beegendereza.
11 (I)Mweyame obweyamo bwammwe eri Mukama Katonda wammwe, era mubutuukirizenga;
    bonna abamuli okumpi bamuleetere ebirabo,
    kubanga asaanidde okutiibwa.
12 Mukama akkakkanya abalangira,
    ne bakabaka b’ensi bamutya.

Psalm 76[a]

For the director of music. With stringed instruments. A psalm of Asaph. A song.

God is renowned in Judah;
    in Israel his name is great.(A)
His tent is in Salem,(B)
    his dwelling place in Zion.(C)
There he broke the flashing arrows,(D)
    the shields and the swords, the weapons of war.[b](E)

You are radiant with light,(F)
    more majestic than mountains rich with game.
The valiant(G) lie plundered,
    they sleep their last sleep;(H)
not one of the warriors
    can lift his hands.
At your rebuke,(I) God of Jacob,
    both horse and chariot(J) lie still.

It is you alone who are to be feared.(K)
    Who can stand(L) before you when you are angry?(M)
From heaven you pronounced judgment,
    and the land feared(N) and was quiet—
when you, God, rose up to judge,(O)
    to save all the afflicted(P) of the land.
10 Surely your wrath against mankind brings you praise,(Q)
    and the survivors of your wrath are restrained.[c]

11 Make vows to the Lord your God and fulfill them;(R)
    let all the neighboring lands
    bring gifts(S) to the One to be feared.
12 He breaks the spirit of rulers;
    he is feared by the kings of the earth.
