< Psalms 58 >
1 For the Chief Musician. To the tune of “Do Not Destroy.” A poem by David. Do you indeed speak righteousness, silent ones? Do you judge blamelessly, you sons of men?
Nkunga Davidi kuidi pfumu minyimbidi “kadi vonda”. A buevi, beno bapfumu, mu busonga lueti yolukilanga e? Mu bufuana lueti sambisilanga batu e?
2 No, in your heart you plot injustice. You measure out the violence of your hands in the earth.
Nana! Mu mintima mieno, lueti yindula makambulu masonga ayi mioko mieno milembo muangisa makhemi va ntoto.
3 The wicked go astray from the womb. They are wayward as soon as they are born, speaking lies.
Tona mu mbutukulu, batu bambimbi beti zimbala; tona mu vumu, ntu ngolo badi ayi bantubanga luvunu.
4 Their poison is like the poison of a snake, like a deaf cobra that stops its ear,
Mitsa miawu midi banga mitsa mi nioka, banga kusa kizibikidi matu mandi
5 which does not listen to the voice of charmers, no matter how skillful the charmer may be.
kinkambu wa mbembo yi batu bansakisanga zinioka; mbembo yi ndoki yiyenda tsangu.
6 Break their teeth, God, in their mouth. Break out the great teeth of the young lions, LORD.
Kola meno mu miunu miawu, a Nzambi; vuza, a Yave, meno ma zikhosi.
7 Let them vanish like water that flows away. When they draw the bow, let their arrows be made blunt.
Bika balalakana banga maza ma nkumba! Mu thangu bambansula mimbasa miawu, bika madionga mawu maba makambu tsongi
8 Let them be like a snail which melts and passes away, like the stillborn child, who has not seen the sun.
banga khodi yinsiuta bu yilembo diati; banga muana wusuluka bika kabika mona thangu.
9 Before your pots can feel the heat of the thorns, he will sweep away the green and the burning alike.
Tuamina zinzungu zieno zimona diamu di zitsendi ziba zinlangu voti ziyuma, batu bambimbi bela kombulu.
10 The righteous shall rejoice when he sees the vengeance. He shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked,
Basonga bela mona khini bu bela mona landi kioki bela kuba vutudila; bela sukula malu mawu mu menga ma batu bambimbi.
11 so that men shall say, “Most certainly there is a reward for the righteous. Most certainly there is a God who judges the earth.”
Batu bela tuba: “Bukiedika; basonga bantambulanga mfutu mu kadika thangu. Bukiedika vadi Nzambi weti sambisa va ntoto.”
