Ya Mukulu wa Bayimbi. Ku ddoboozi, “Tozikiriza.” Zabbuli ya Asafu. Oluyimba.

75 (A)Tukwebaza, Ayi Katonda.
    Tukwebaza, kubanga Erinnya lyo liri kumpi.
    Abantu boogera ku bikolwa byo eby’ekyewuunyo.

Mukama Katonda oyogera nti, “Neerondera ekiseera kye neetegekera
    era nsala omusango gwa bwenkanya.
(B)Kyokka newaakubadde ng’ensi eyuuguuma abantu ne beeraliikirira,
    naye nze nywezezza empagi zaayo.”
(C)Nalabula ab’amalala bagaleke,
    n’ababi bakomye okuyimusa ejjembe lyabwe ng’ery’embogo.
Mukomye okuyimusa ejjembe lyammwe eri eggulu
    n’okwogera nga muduula.

Kubanga okugulumizibwa tekuva mu ddungu
    era n’obuyinza tebuva buvanjuba wadde obugwanjuba bw’ensi,
(D)wabula biva eri Katonda;
    era ye y’agulumiza omu ate n’atoowaza omulala.
(E)Mukama akutte mu mukono gwe ekikompe eky’obusungu bwe
    ekijjudde omwenge ogutabuddwamu ebirungo era kijjudde ejjovu;
akifuka, aboonoonyi bonna ku nsi
    ne bakinywa ne bakimaliramu ddala.

(F)Naye nze nnaatendanga obulungi bwa Mukama;
    nnaatenderezanga Katonda wa Yakobo ennaku zonna.
10 (G)Mukama ayogera nti, Ababi ndibamalamu amaanyi,
    naye abatuukirivu nnaabongeranga amaanyi.

Psalm 75[a]

For the director of music. To the tune of “Do Not Destroy.” A psalm of Asaph. A song.

We praise you, God,
    we praise you, for your Name is near;(A)
    people tell of your wonderful deeds.(B)

You say, “I choose the appointed time;(C)
    it is I who judge with equity.(D)
When the earth and all its people quake,(E)
    it is I who hold its pillars(F) firm.[b]
To the arrogant(G) I say, ‘Boast no more,’(H)
    and to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up your horns.[c](I)
Do not lift your horns against heaven;
    do not speak so defiantly.(J)’”

No one from the east or the west
    or from the desert can exalt themselves.
It is God who judges:(K)
    He brings one down, he exalts another.(L)
In the hand of the Lord is a cup
    full of foaming wine mixed(M) with spices;
he pours it out, and all the wicked of the earth
    drink it down to its very dregs.(N)

As for me, I will declare(O) this forever;
    I will sing(P) praise to the God of Jacob,(Q)
10 who says, “I will cut off the horns of all the wicked,
    but the horns of the righteous will be lifted up.”(R)
