Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Zabbuli ya Dawudi.

22 (A)Katonda wange, Katonda wange, lwaki onjabulidde?
    Lwaki ogaana okunnyamba
    wadde okuwuliriza okwaziirana kwange?
(B)Ayi Katonda wange, emisana nkukoowoola, naye tonnyanukula;
    n’ekiro bwe ntyo, naye siweerako.

(C)Songa ggwe Mutukuvu atudde ku Ntebe,
    era ettendo lya Isirayiri yonna.
Bajjajjaffe baakwesiganga;
    baakwesiga naawe n’obawonya.
(D)Baakukoowoolanga n’obalokola;
    era baakwesiganga ne batajulirira.

(E)Naye nze ndi lusiriŋŋanyi, siri muntu;
    abantu bampisaamu amaaso, n’abalala bannyooma.
(F)Bonna abandaba banduulira,
    era banvuma nga bwe banyeenyeza omutwe nga bagamba nti,
(G)“Yeesiga Mukama;
    kale amuwonye.
Obanga Mukama amwagala,
    kale nno amulokole!”

(H)Naye ggwe wanziggya mu lubuto lwa mmange,
    era wampa okukwesiga
    ne mu buto bwange bwonna nga nkyayonka.
10 (I)Olwazaalibwa ne nteekebwa mu mikono gyo;
    olwava mu lubuto lwa mmange n’obeera Katonda wange.

11 (J)Tobeera wala nange,
    kubanga emitawaana ginsemberedde,
    ate nga tewali mulala n’omu asobola kunnyamba.

12 (K)Zisseddume nnyingi zinneetoolodde,
    zisseddume enkambwe ez’e Basani[a] zinzingizizza.
13 (L)Banjasamiza akamwa kaabwe
    ng’empologoma bw’ewuluguma ng’etaagulataagula omuyiggo gwayo.
14 (M)Ngiyiddwa ng’amazzi,
    n’amagumba gange gasowose mu nnyingo zaago.
Omutima gwange guli ng’obubaane,
    era gusaanuukidde mu mubiri gwange.
15 (N)Amaanyi gampweddemu, gakaze ng’oluggyo;
    n’olulimi lwange lukutte waggulu mu kibuno kyange.
    Ondese awo mu nfuufu ng’omufu.

16 (O)Abantu ababi banneetoolodde;
    banneebunguludde ng’embwa ennyingi;
    banfumise ne bawummula ebibatu byange n’ebigere byange.
17 (P)Amagumba gansowose nnyinza n’okugabala.
    Abalabe bange bantunuulira nga bannyoomoola.
18 (Q)Bagabana engoye zange;
    era ekyambalo kyange bakikubira akalulu.

19 (R)Naye ggwe, Ayi Mukama, tobeera wala nange.
    Ggwe, Amaanyi gange, yanguwa okunnyamba!
20 (S)Omponye okuttibwa n’ekitala;
    obulamu bwange obw’omuwendo butaase mu maanyi g’embwa!
21 Nzigya mu kamwa k’empologoma,
    omponye amayembe g’embogo enkambwe.

22 (T)Nnaategezanga ku linnya lyo mu booluganda;
    nnaakutenderezanga mu kibiina ky’abantu.
23 (U)Mmwe abatya Mukama, mumutenderezenga.
    Abaana ba Yakobo mwenna mumugulumizenga;
    era mumussengamu ekitiibwa nga mumutya, mmwe abaana ba Isirayiri mwenna.
24 (V)Kubanga tanyooma kwaziirana
    kw’abo abali mu nnaku,
era tabeekweka,
    wabula abaanukula bwe bamukoowoola.

25 (W)Mu ggwe mwe muva ettendo lyange mu kibiina ekinene, ne nkutendereza olw’ebyo by’onkoledde.
    Obweyamo bwange nnaabutuukirizanga mu maaso gaabo abakutya.
26 (X)Abaavu banaalyanga ne bakkuta,
    abo abanoonya Mukama banaamutenderezanga.
    Emitima gyabwe ginaajaguzanga emirembe gyonna.

27 (Y)Ensi zonna zirijjukira
    ne zikyukira Mukama,
ebika byonna eby’amawanga gonna
    birimuvuunamira.
28 (Z)Kubanga obwakabaka bwonna bwa Mukama,
    era y’afuga amawanga gonna.

29 (AA)Abagagga bonna ab’omu nsi balirya embaga, ne bamusinza.
    Bonna abagenda mu nfuufu, balimufukaamirira,
    abatakyali balamu.
30 (AB)Ezadde lyabwe lirimuweereza;
    abaliddawo balibuulirwa ekigambo kya Mukama.
31 (AC)N’abo abatannazaalibwa
    balibuulirwa obutuukirivu bwe nti,
    “Ekyo yakikoze.”

Psalm 22[a]

For the director of music. To the tune of “The Doe of the Morning.” A psalm of David.

My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?(A)
    Why are you so far(B) from saving me,
    so far from my cries of anguish?(C)
My God, I cry out by day, but you do not answer,(D)
    by night,(E) but I find no rest.[b]

Yet you are enthroned as the Holy One;(F)
    you are the one Israel praises.[c](G)
In you our ancestors put their trust;
    they trusted and you delivered them.(H)
To you they cried out(I) and were saved;
    in you they trusted(J) and were not put to shame.(K)

But I am a worm(L) and not a man,
    scorned by everyone,(M) despised(N) by the people.
All who see me mock me;(O)
    they hurl insults,(P) shaking their heads.(Q)
“He trusts in the Lord,” they say,
    “let the Lord rescue him.(R)
Let him deliver him,(S)
    since he delights(T) in him.”

Yet you brought me out of the womb;(U)
    you made me trust(V) in you, even at my mother’s breast.
10 From birth(W) I was cast on you;
    from my mother’s womb you have been my God.

11 Do not be far from me,(X)
    for trouble is near(Y)
    and there is no one to help.(Z)

12 Many bulls(AA) surround me;(AB)
    strong bulls of Bashan(AC) encircle me.
13 Roaring lions(AD) that tear their prey(AE)
    open their mouths wide(AF) against me.
14 I am poured out like water,
    and all my bones are out of joint.(AG)
My heart has turned to wax;(AH)
    it has melted(AI) within me.
15 My mouth[d] is dried up like a potsherd,(AJ)
    and my tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth;(AK)
    you lay me in the dust(AL) of death.

16 Dogs(AM) surround me,
    a pack of villains encircles me;
    they pierce[e](AN) my hands and my feet.
17 All my bones are on display;
    people stare(AO) and gloat over me.(AP)
18 They divide my clothes among them
    and cast lots(AQ) for my garment.(AR)

19 But you, Lord, do not be far from me.(AS)
    You are my strength;(AT) come quickly(AU) to help me.(AV)
20 Deliver me from the sword,(AW)
    my precious life(AX) from the power of the dogs.(AY)
21 Rescue me from the mouth of the lions;(AZ)
    save me from the horns of the wild oxen.(BA)

22 I will declare your name to my people;
    in the assembly(BB) I will praise you.(BC)
23 You who fear the Lord, praise him!(BD)
    All you descendants of Jacob, honor him!(BE)
    Revere him,(BF) all you descendants of Israel!
24 For he has not despised(BG) or scorned
    the suffering of the afflicted one;(BH)
he has not hidden his face(BI) from him
    but has listened to his cry for help.(BJ)

25 From you comes the theme of my praise in the great assembly;(BK)
    before those who fear you[f] I will fulfill my vows.(BL)
26 The poor will eat(BM) and be satisfied;
    those who seek the Lord will praise him—(BN)
    may your hearts live forever!

27 All the ends of the earth(BO)
    will remember and turn to the Lord,
and all the families of the nations
    will bow down before him,(BP)
28 for dominion belongs to the Lord(BQ)
    and he rules over the nations.

29 All the rich(BR) of the earth will feast and worship;(BS)
    all who go down to the dust(BT) will kneel before him—
    those who cannot keep themselves alive.(BU)
30 Posterity(BV) will serve him;
    future generations(BW) will be told about the Lord.
31 They will proclaim his righteousness,(BX)
    declaring to a people yet unborn:(BY)
    He has done it!(BZ)

  6. Psalm 22:25 Hebrew him

22 My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring?

O my God, I cry in the day time, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not silent.

But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel.

Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them.

They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded.

But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people.

All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying,

He trusted on the Lord that he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him.

But thou art he that took me out of the womb: thou didst make me hope when I was upon my mother's breasts.

10 I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou art my God from my mother's belly.

11 Be not far from me; for trouble is near; for there is none to help.

12 Many bulls have compassed me: strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round.

13 They gaped upon me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion.

14 I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.

15 My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.

16 For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet.

17 I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me.

18 They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture.

19 But be not thou far from me, O Lord: O my strength, haste thee to help me.

20 Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog.

21 Save me from the lion's mouth: for thou hast heard me from the horns of the unicorns.

22 I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee.

23 Ye that fear the Lord, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and fear him, all ye the seed of Israel.

24 For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he hid his face from him; but when he cried unto him, he heard.

25 My praise shall be of thee in the great congregation: I will pay my vows before them that fear him.

26 The meek shall eat and be satisfied: they shall praise the Lord that seek him: your heart shall live for ever.

27 All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the Lord: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee.

28 For the kingdom is the Lord's: and he is the governor among the nations.

29 All they that be fat upon earth shall eat and worship: all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him: and none can keep alive his own soul.

30 A seed shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation.

31 They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done this.
