< Psalms 59 >
1 For the choirmaster. To the tune of “Do Not Destroy.” A Miktam of David, when Saul sent men to watch David’s house in order to kill him. Deliver me from my enemies, O my God; protect me from those who rise against me.
Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Eyembamaki ndenge moko na « Kobebisa te! » tango Saulo atindaki bato kozingela ndako ya Davidi mpo na koboma ye. Nzembo ya Davidi. Oh Nzambe na ngai, kangola ngai wuta na maboko ya banguna na ngai; batela ngai liboso ya banyokoli na ngai.
2 Deliver me from workers of iniquity, and save me from men of bloodshed.
Kangola ngai wuta na maboko ya bato ya misala mabe, mpe bikisa ngai liboso ya basopi makila ya bato.
3 See how they lie in wait for me. Fierce men conspire against me for no transgression or sin of my own, O LORD.
Yawe, bazali koluka koboma ngai; bato na nguya basaleli ngai likita, nzokande nasali mabe te, nasali na ngai mpe masumu te.
4 For no fault of my own, they move swiftly to attack me. Arise to help me, and take notice.
Nasali mabe ata moko te; kasi bango bazali kopota mbangu, bazali komibongisa. Lamuka mpo na koya kokutana na ngai, mpe tala.
5 O LORD God of Hosts, the God of Israel, rouse Yourself to punish all the nations; show no mercy to the wicked traitors.
Yawe, Nzambe-Na-Nguya-Nyonso, Nzambe ya Isalaele, telema mpo na kopesa bikolo nyonso etumbu; koyokela bato nyonso oyo basalaka mabe mawa te.
6 They return in the evening, snarling like dogs and prowling around the city.
Bazongaka na pokwa, bagangaka lokola bambwa mpe batambolaka zingazinga ya engumba.
7 See what they spew from their mouths— sharp words from their lips: “For who can hear us?”
Na nzela ya minoko na bango, babimisaka na bibebu na bango maloba oyo ezokisaka lokola mipanga; bamilobelaka: « Nani azali koyoka biso? »
8 But You, O LORD, laugh at them; You scoff at all the nations.
Kasi Yo, Yawe, osekaka bango, otiolaka bikolo nyonso.
9 I will keep watch for You, O my strength, because You, O God, are my fortress.
Nzambe, ozali makasi na ngai, nakotalela Yo; ozali ebombamelo na ngai,
10 My God of loving devotion will come to meet me; God will let me stare down my foes.
Nzambe na ngai, oyo nalingaka. Nzambe ayaka kino liboso na ngai, atikaka ngai kotala banguna na ngai.
11 Do not kill them, or my people will forget. Scatter them by Your power, and bring them down, O Lord, our shield.
Nkolo, nguba na biso, koboma bango te, noki te bato na ngai bakobosana. Na nguya na Yo, sala ete bayengayenga, mpe mema bango kino na se.
12 By the sins of their mouths and the words of their lips, let them be trapped in their pride, in the curses and lies they utter.
Mpo na masumu ya minoko na bango, mpo na maloba ya bibebu na bango, tika ete bakangama na motambo ya lolendo na bango. Mpo na bilakeli mabe mpe lokuta na bango,
13 Consume them in wrath; consume them till they are no more, so it may be known to the ends of the earth that God rules over Jacob.
bebisa bango na kanda na Yo, bebisa bango kino bazala lisusu te. Bongo bakoyeba ete Nzambe azali kokonza kati na Jakobi kino na suka ya mokili.
14 They return in the evening, snarling like dogs and prowling around the city.
Bazongaka na pokwa, bagangaka lokola bambwa mpe batambolaka zingazinga ya engumba.
15 They scavenge for food, and growl if they are not satisfied.
Bayengaka-yengaka mpo na koluka bilei; soki batondi te, balekisaka butu na kolelalela.
16 But I will sing of Your strength and proclaim Your loving devotion in the morning. For You are my fortress, my refuge in times of trouble.
Kasi ngai nakoyembela makasi na Yo, nakobetela bolingo na Yo milolo, na tongo, pamba te ozali ebombamelo na ngai, mpe ekimelo na ngai na tango ya pasi.
17 To You, O my strength, I sing praises, for You, O God, are my fortress, my God of loving devotion.
Ozali makasi na ngai, nakoyemba mpo na lokumu na Yo; ozali ebombamelo na ngai, oh Nzambe; Nzambe na ngai, oyo nalingaka.
