Psalms 147
1 Give praise to the Lord; for it is good to make melody to our God; praise is pleasing and beautiful.
Bokumisa Yawe! Tala ndenge ezali malamu kosanzola Nzambe na biso, mpe ndenge ezali kitoko kokumisa Ye!
2 The Lord is building up Jerusalem; he makes all the outlaws of Israel come together.
Yawe azali kotonga lisusu Yelusalemi epai wapi akosangisa bato ya Isalaele oyo bakenda na bowumbu.
3 He makes the broken-hearted well, and puts oil on their wounds.
Abikisaka bato oyo batutami na mitema mpe akawusaka bapota na bango.
4 He sees the number of the stars; he gives them all their names.
Ayebi motango ya minzoto mpe abengaka moko na moko na kombo na yango.
5 Great is our Lord, and great his power; there is no limit to his wisdom.
Nkolo na biso azali monene mpe atonda na nguya; mayele na Ye ezali na mondelo te.
6 The Lord gives help to the poor in spirit; but he sends sinners down in shame.
Yawe asungaka babola, kasi akitisaka bato mabe kino na mabele.
7 Make songs of praise to the Lord; make melody to our God with instruments of music.
Boyembela Yawe nzembo ya matondi! Bobetela Nzambe na biso lindanda mpo na kosanzola Ye!
8 By his hand the heaven is covered with clouds and rain is stored up for the earth; he makes the grass tall on the mountains.
Azipaka likolo na mapata, abongisaka mvula mpo na mokili mpe abotisaka matiti na bangomba.
9 He gives food to every beast, and to the young ravens in answer to their cry.
Apesaka bilei epai ya bibwele mpe epai ya bana ya yanganga oyo ezali koganga mpo na nzala.
10 He has no delight in the strength of a horse; he takes no pleasure in the legs of a man.
Asepelaka na makasi ya mpunda te mpe alingaka te nguya ya moto;
11 The Lord takes pleasure in his worshippers, and in those whose hope is in his mercy.
kasi Yawe asepelaka na bato oyo batosaka Ye, ba-oyo batielaka bolingo na Ye motema.
12 Give praise to the Lord, O Jerusalem; give praise to your God, O Zion.
Yelusalemi, pesa nkembo na Yawe! Siona, kumisa Nzambe na yo!
13 He has made strong the iron bands of your doors; he has sent blessings on your children inside your walls.
Alendisaka bikangelo ya bikuke na yo mpe apambolaka bana na yo epai na yo.
14 He gives peace in all your land, making your stores full of fat grain.
Atiaka kimia na etuka na yo mpe atondisaka yo na farine.
15 He sends out his orders to the earth; his word goes out quickly.
Atindaka mitindo na Ye na mokili, mpe maloba na Ye epanzanaka mbala moko!
16 He gives snow like wool; he sends out ice-drops like dust.
Anokisaka mvula ya pembe lokola bapwale ya meme mpe apanzaka mvula ya mabanga lokola putulu;
17 He sends down ice like raindrops: water is made hard by his cold.
akweyisaka mabanga ya mvula yango lokola mabanga ya mike-mike; nani akoki kotelema na malili na yango?
18 At the outgoing of his word, the ice is turned to water; when he sends out his wind, there is a flowing of waters.
Soki kaka atindi liloba, malili ekomaka kosila moke-moke; mpe soki atindi mopepe, mayi ekomaka kotiola.
19 He makes his word clear to Jacob, teaching Israel his laws and his decisions.
Asakolaki liloba na Ye epai ya Jakobi, mibeko mpe malako na Ye epai ya Isalaele.
20 He has not done these things for any other nation: and as for his laws, they have no knowledge of them. Let the Lord be praised.
Asalaki bongo na ekolo ata moko te; boye eyebaka mpe mibeko na Ye te. Bokumisa Yawe!
