Psalms 55
1 For the choirmaster. With stringed instruments. A Maskil of David. Listen to my prayer, O God, and do not ignore my plea.
Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Eyembamaki na lindanda. Nzembo ya Davidi. Oh Nzambe, yoka libondeli na ngai, komibomba te wana nazali kobelela Yo.
2 Attend to me and answer me. I am restless in my complaint, and distraught
Yoka ngai mpe yanola ngai. Kati na kolela na ngai, nakomi koyengayenga mpe nazangi kimia,
3 at the voice of the enemy, at the pressure of the wicked. For they release disaster upon me and revile me in their anger.
mpo na maloba ya monguna na ngai mpe kanda ya moto mabe, pamba te bazali kokweyisela ngai misala mabe mpe konyokola ngai na kanda.
4 My heart murmurs within me, and the terrors of death assail me.
Motema na ngai etondi na mawa, mpe somo ya kufa ekangi ngai.
5 Fear and trembling grip me, and horror has overwhelmed me.
Nakomi kobanga mpe kolenga, somo monene ekangi ngai.
6 I said, “Oh, that I had wings like a dove! I would fly away and find rest.
Nakomi komilobela: « Soki nazalaki ata na mapapu ya ebenga, nalingaki kopumbwa mpo na koluka bopemi;
7 How far away I would flee! In the wilderness I would remain.
nalingaki kokima mosika penza, mpo na kokende kovanda ata na esobe.
8 I would hurry to my shelter, far from this raging tempest.”
Solo, na lombangu penza, nalingaki kokende koluka ebombamelo mpo na kokima mopepe makasi mpe ekumbaki. »
9 O Lord, confuse and confound their speech, for I see violence and strife in the city.
Nkolo, bebisa mabongisi ya banguna na ngai mpe kotisa mobulu kati na bango; pamba te, kati na engumba, nazali komona mobulu mpe bokabwani.
10 Day and night they encircle the walls, while malice and trouble lie within.
Butu mpe moyi, ezali kotambola na bamir na yango; misala mabe mpe ya kanza etondi kati na yango.
11 Destruction is within; oppression and deceit never leave the streets.
Banguya oyo ebebisaka ezali kosala kati na yango, minyoko mpe lokuta ezali kosila te.
12 For it is not an enemy who insults me; that I could endure. It is not a foe who rises against me; from him I could hide.
Soki monguna nde azalaki kofinga ngai, nalingaki kokanga motema; soki ezalaki mpe moyini nde azalaki kotelemela ngai, nalingaki komibomba mpo ete amona ngai te.
13 But it is you, a man like myself, my companion and close friend.
Kasi ezali yo, moto lokola ngai, oyo otambolaka elongo na ngai, molingami mpe moninga na ngai ya motema
14 We shared sweet fellowship together; we walked with the crowd into the house of God.
oyo nazalaki kokabola elongo na yo, pasi mpe basekele tango tozalaki kokende nzela moko na Tempelo ya Nzambe.
15 Let death seize them by surprise; let them go down to Sheol alive, for evil is with them in their homes. (Sheol h7585)
Tika ete kufa ekanga bango na mbalakata mpe bakita ya bomoi kati na mboka ya bakufi; pamba te mabe etondi kati na bandako mpe mitema na bango. (Sheol h7585)
16 But I call to God, and the LORD saves me.
Mpo na ngai, nabelelaka Nzambe, mpe Yawe akobikisa ngai.
17 Morning, noon, and night, I cry out in distress, and He hears my voice.
Tongo, midi, pokwa, nasopaka motema na ngai mpe nalelaka, mpe ayokaka mongongo na ngai.
18 He redeems my soul in peace from the battle waged against me, even though many oppose me.
Akopesa ngai kimia, akokangola ngai na bitumba oyo babundisaka ngai; pamba te bato oyo batelemeli ngai bazali ebele.
19 God will hear and humiliate them— the One enthroned for the ages— (Selah) because they do not change and they have no fear of God.
Nzambe ayokaka, akosambwisa bango penza; akonzaka mpo na libela na libela. Babongolaka mitema te mpe batosaka Nzambe te.
20 My companion attacks his friends; he violates his covenant.
Abundisi balingami na ye, abebisi boyokani na ye.
21 His speech is smooth as butter, but war is in his heart. His words are softer than oil, yet they are swords unsheathed.
Maloba ya monoko na ye ezalaka sukali, nzokande bitumba evandi kati na motema na ye; maloba na ye ezalaka ya kimia koleka mafuta, nzokande ezali mopanga oyo ezangi ebombelo.
22 Cast your burden upon the LORD and He will sustain you; He will never let the righteous be shaken.
Bwakela Yawe mokumba na yo, akosunga yo; akotika te ete moto ya sembo akweya mpo na libela.
23 But You, O God, will bring them down to the Pit of destruction; men of bloodshed and deceit will not live out half their days. But I will trust in You.
Mpe Yo, Nzambe, okobwaka basopi makila mpe bakosi kati na libulu ya libebi; bakokokisa ata kati-kati te ya mikolo ya bomoi na bango. Kasi ngai, natiaka elikya na ngai kati na Yo.
