Psalms 108

1 My heart is fixed, O God, I will sing, yea, I will sing praises, even with my glory.

Nzembo ya Davidi. Nzambe, motema na ngai ezali na kimia! Nakoyembela Yo, nakosanzola Yo na mindule; ezali mpe lokumu na ngai.

2 Awake, psaltery and harp. I myself will awake right early.

Lindanda mpe nzenze, bolamuka! Nalingi kolamusa tongo.

3 I will give thanks to thee, O Jehovah, among the peoples, and I will sing praises to thee among the nations.

Nkolo, nakosanzola Yo kati na bato, nakoyembela Yo kati na bikolo.

4 For thy loving kindness is great above the heavens, and thy truth is to the skies.

Pamba te bolingo na Yo ezali monene koleka Lola, mpe bosembo na Yo ekenda kino na mapata.

5 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens, and thy glory above all the earth.

Oh Nzambe, tika ete otombolama na likolo ya Lola, mpe nkembo na Yo ezala awa na mokili mobimba!

6 That thy beloved may be delivered, save with thy right hand, and answer us.

Bikisa biso na nguya ya loboko na Yo mpe yanola biso, mpo ete balingami na Yo bakangolama!

7 God has spoken in his holiness. I will exult. I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.

Nzambe alobaki kati na Esika na Ye ya bule: « Nakolonga! Nakokabola Sishemi mpe nakotia bandelo ya lubwaku ya Sukoti.

8 Gilead is mine. Manasseh is mine. Ephraim also is the defense of my head. Judah is my scepter.

Galadi ezali ya ngai, Manase mpe ezali ya ngai; Efrayimi ezali ekoti na ngai ya ebende, mpe Yuda ezali lingenda na ngai ya bokonzi.

9 Moab is my wash pot. Upon Edom I will cast my shoe. Over Philistia I will shout.

Moabi ezali sani monene oyo nasukolelaka, Edomi ezali esika oyo nabwakaka sandale na ngai. Nazali kobeta milolo ya bitumba mpo na kobundisa mokili ya Filisitia. »

10 Who will bring me into the fortified city? Who has led me to Edom?

Nani akomema ngai na engumba batonga makasi? Nani akotambolisa ngai kino na Edomi?

11 Have thou not cast us off, O God? And thou go not forth, O God, with our armies.

Ezali Yo te, Nzambe oyo obwakaki biso, Nzambe oyo ozalaki lisusu te kokende bitumba elongo na mampinga na biso!

12 Give us help against the adversary, for vain is the help of man.

Yaka kosunga biso, kangola biso liboso ya moyini! Pamba te lisungi ya bato ezali pamba.

13 Through God we shall do valiantly, for he it is who will tread down our adversaries.

Elongo na Nzambe, tokosala makambo minene mpe ya kokamwa; ezali Ye nde akonyata banguna na biso.
