Psalms 54

1 For the choirmaster. With stringed instruments. A Maskil of David. When the Ziphites went to Saul and said, “Is David not hiding among us?” Save me, O God, by Your name, and vindicate me by Your might!

Nzembo ya Davidi. Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Eyembamaki na lindanda tango bato ya Zifi bayaki koyebisa Saulo: « Davidi abombami kati na biso. » Oh Nzambe, bikisa ngai na nzela ya Kombo na Yo, longisa ngai na nzela ya nguya na Yo.

2 Hear my prayer, O God; listen to the words of my mouth.

Oh Nzambe, yoka libondeli na ngai, yoka maloba ya monoko na ngai.

3 For strangers rise up against me, and ruthless men seek my life— men with no regard for God.

Bapaya batelemi mpo na kobundisa ngai; mpe bato na kanza bazali koluka koboma ngai, batalelaka Nzambe te.

4 Surely God is my helper; the Lord is the sustainer of my soul.

Tala, Nzambe azali lisungi na ngai, Nkolo azali eyekamelo na ngai.

5 He will reward my enemies with evil. In Your faithfulness, destroy them.

Tika ete akweyisela bayini na ngai mabe! Kati na boyengebene na Yo, bebisa bango.

6 Freely I will sacrifice to You; I will praise Your name, O LORD, for it is good.

Nakobonzela Yo mbeka na motema malamu, nakokumisa Kombo na Yo, Oh Yawe, pamba te ozali malamu.

7 For He has delivered me from every trouble, and my eyes have stared down my foes.

Okangoli ngai na pasi nyonso; mpe miso na ngai etali lokola molongi ya banguna na ngai.
