147 (A)Mutendereze Mukama!

Kubanga kirungi okutenderezanga Katonda waffe;
    kubanga ajjudde ekisa, n’oluyimba olw’okumutenderezanga lumusaanira.

(B)Mukama azimba Yerusaalemi;
    era akuŋŋaanya Abayisirayiri abaali mu buwaŋŋanguse.
Azzaamu amaanyi abo abalina emitima egimenyese,
    era ajjanjaba ebiwundu byabwe.
(C)Mukama ategeka omuwendo gw’emmunyeenye;
    era buli emu n’agituuma erinnya.
(D)Mukama waffe mukulu era wa kitiibwa; amaanyi g’obuyinza bwe tegatendeka,
    n’okutegeera kwe tekuliiko kkomo.
(E)Mukama awanirira abawombeefu,
    naye abakola ebibi abasuulira ddala wansi.

(F)Muyimbire Mukama ennyimba ez’okumwebaza;
    mumukubire entongooli ezivuga obulungi.

(G)Mukama abikka eggulu n’ebire,
    ensi agitonnyeseza enkuba,
    n’ameza omuddo ne gukula ku nsozi.
(H)Ente aziwa emmere, ne bannamuŋŋoona abato abakaaba abaliisa.

10 (I)Essanyu lya Mukama teriri mu maanyi ga mbalaasi,
    wadde mu magulu g’omuntu,
11 wabula Mukama asanyukira abo abamussaamu ekitiibwa,
    era abalina essuubi mu kwagala kwe okutaggwaawo.

12 Tendereza Mukama ggwe Yerusaalemi,
    tendereza Katonda wo ggwe Sayuuni,
13 kubanga ebisiba enzigi zo, ye abinyweza,
    n’abantu bo abasulamu n’abawa omukisa.
14 (J)Aleeta emirembe ku nsalo zo;
    n’akukkusa eŋŋaano esinga obulungi.

15 (K)Aweereza ekiragiro kye ku nsi;
    ekigambo kye ne kibuna mangu.
16 (L)Ayaliira omuzira ku ttaka ne gutukula ng’ebyoya by’endiga enjeru,
    n’omusulo ogukutte n’agusaasaanya ng’evvu.
17 Omuzira agukanyuga ng’obuyinjayinja;
    bw’aleeta obutiti ani ayinza okubusobola?
18 (M)Mukama aweereza ekigambo kye, omuzira ne gusaanuuka;
    n’akunsa empewo, amazzi ne gakulukuta.
19 (N)Yategeeza Yakobo ekigambo kye;
    Isirayiri n’amanya amateeka ga Mukama n’ebiragiro bye.
20 (O)Tewali ggwanga na limu lye yali akolaganye nalyo bw’atyo;
    amawanga amalala tegamanyi mateeka ge.

Mutendereze Mukama!

147 12 Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem: praise thy God, O Sion.

13 Because he hath strengthened the bolts of thy gates, he hath blessed thy children within thee.

14 Who hath placed peace in thy borders: and filleth thee with the fat of corn.

15 Who sendeth forth his speech to the earth: his word runneth swiftly.

16 Who giveth snow like wool: scattereth mists like ashes.

17 He sendeth his crystal like morsels: who shall stand before the face of his cold?

18 He shall send out his word, and shall melt them: his wind shall blow, and the waters shall run.

19 Who declareth his word to Jacob: his justices and his judgments to Israel.

20 He hath not done in like manner to every nation: and his judgments he hath not made manifest to them. Alleluia.

147 Praise ye the Lord: for it is good to sing praises unto our God; for it is pleasant; and praise is comely.

The Lord doth build up Jerusalem: he gathereth together the outcasts of Israel.

He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.

He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their names.

Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite.

The Lord lifteth up the meek: he casteth the wicked down to the ground.

Sing unto the Lord with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto our God:

Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains.

He giveth to the beast his food, and to the young ravens which cry.

10 He delighteth not in the strength of the horse: he taketh not pleasure in the legs of a man.

11 The Lord taketh pleasure in them that fear him, in those that hope in his mercy.

12 Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem; praise thy God, O Zion.

13 For he hath strengthened the bars of thy gates; he hath blessed thy children within thee.

14 He maketh peace in thy borders, and filleth thee with the finest of the wheat.

15 He sendeth forth his commandment upon earth: his word runneth very swiftly.

16 He giveth snow like wool: he scattereth the hoarfrost like ashes.

17 He casteth forth his ice like morsels: who can stand before his cold?

18 He sendeth out his word, and melteth them: he causeth his wind to blow, and the waters flow.

19 He sheweth his word unto Jacob, his statutes and his judgments unto Israel.

20 He hath not dealt so with any nation: and as for his judgments, they have not known them. Praise ye the Lord.
