< Psalms 33 >
1 Rejoice in the LORD, O righteous ones; it is fitting for the upright to praise Him.
Bino bato ya sembo, bobeta milolo ya esengo na tina na Yawe! Kokumisa Nzambe ebongi na bato oyo bazali alima.
2 Praise the LORD with the harp; make music to Him with ten strings.
Bosanzola Yawe na nzenze, bosanzola Ye na lindanda ya basinga zomi.
3 Sing to Him a new song; play skillfully with a shout of joy.
Boyembela Yawe nzembo ya sika, bobetisa bibetelo mindule elongo na koganga ya esengo.
4 For the word of the LORD is upright, and all His work is trustworthy.
Pamba te Liloba na Yawe ezali alima, misala na Ye nyonso ekokisamaka na boyengebene.
5 The LORD loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of His loving devotion.
Yawe alingaka bosembo mpe alima; mokili etondi na bolingo na Ye.
6 By the word of the LORD the heavens were made, and all the stars by the breath of His mouth.
Likolo ekelamaki na Liloba na Yawe; mampinga na yango nyonso, na nzela ya pema ya monoko na Ye.
7 He piles up the waters of the sea; He puts the depths into storehouses.
Asangisaka mayi ya bibale minene esika moko, mpe atiaka yango na bisika ya mozindo.
8 Let all the earth fear the LORD; let all the people of the world revere Him.
Tika ete mokili mobimba etosa Yawe! Tika ete bavandi nyonso ya mokili balenga liboso na Ye.
9 For He spoke, and it came to be; He commanded, and it stood firm.
Pamba te alobaki, mpe likambo esalemaki; mpe apesaki mitindo, mpe emonanaki.
10 The LORD frustrates the plans of the nations; He thwarts the devices of the peoples.
Yawe akweyisaka mikano ya bikolo, abebisaka mabongisi ya bato.
11 The counsel of the LORD stands forever, the purposes of His heart to all generations.
Kasi mikano ya Yawe etikalaka mpo na seko, mabongisi ya motema na Ye, mpo na bikeke nyonso.
12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people He has chosen as His inheritance!
Esengo na ekolo oyo Yawe azali Nzambe na yango. Esengo na bato oyo aponaki mpo na libula na Ye.
13 The LORD looks down from heaven; He sees all the sons of men.
Yawe atalaka wuta na likolo, amonaka bana nyonso ya bato.
14 From His dwelling place He gazes on all who inhabit the earth.
Wuta na evandelo na Ye, atalaka bavandi nyonso ya mokili.
15 He shapes the hearts of each; He considers all their works.
Ye oyo asalaka mitema nyonso ya bato asosolaka makambo nyonso oyo basalaka.
16 No king is saved by his vast army; no warrior is delivered by his great strength.
Ezali te limpinga monene nde ebikisaka mokonzi to nguya monene nde ekangolaka elombe.
17 A horse is a vain hope for salvation; even its great strength cannot save.
Mpunda ezali na nguya te ya kopesa lobiko, makasi na yango nyonso ekangolaka te.
18 Surely the eyes of the LORD are on those who fear Him, on those whose hope is in His loving devotion
Nzokande Yawe atalaka bato oyo batosaka Ye, ba-oyo batiaka elikya na bolingo kati na Ye,
19 to deliver them from death and keep them alive in famine.
mpo na kokangola bango na kufa mpe kobatela bango na bomoi ata na tango ya nzala makasi.
20 Our soul waits for the LORD; He is our help and our shield.
Totielaka Yawe motema; azali lisungi mpe nguba na biso.
21 For our hearts rejoice in Him, since we trust in His holy name.
Solo, mitema na biso esepelaka kati na Ye, pamba te totiaka elikya na biso kati na Kombo na Ye ya bule.
22 May Your loving devotion rest on us, O LORD, as we put our hope in You.
Yawe, lokola totiaka elikya na biso kati na Yo, tika ete bolingo na Yo ezala elongo na biso.
