Psalms 28
1 Of David. My cry goes up to you, O Lord, my Rock; do not keep back your answer from me, so that I may not become like those who go down into the underworld.
Nkunga Davidi. Ngeyo ndintela; A Yave, ditadi diama di ngolo, kadi kunzibikila dikutu diaku Bila ngeyo ba dio sui; buna ndiela dedakana bobo bankulukanga mu dibulu dimula.
2 Give ear to the voice of my prayer, when I am crying to you, when my hands are lifted up to your holy place.
Wa yamikina kuami mu diambu di kiadi banga bu ndikutela mu tomba lusadusu banga bu ndieti vumuna mioko miama ku ndambu buangu kiaku kilutidi kinlongo.
3 Do not take me away with the sinners and the workers of evil, who say words of peace to their neighbours, but evil is in their hearts.
Kadi kuphitumuna va kimosi ayi batu bambimbi ayi batu beti vanga mambimbi; bobo banyolukilanga mambu ma ndembama va kimosi ayi badiawu vayi banyindulanga mambimbi mu mintima miawu.
4 Give them the right reward of their acts, and of their evil doings: give them punishment for the works of their hands, let them have their full reward.
Wuba vutudila boso buididi mavanga mawu, ayi boso buididi mavanga mawu mambimbi. Wuba vutudila boso buididi mavanga ma mioko miawu, wuba vutudila boso buididi mambu momo bavanga.
5 Because they have no respect for the works of the Lord, or for the things which his hands have made, they will be broken down and not lifted up by him.
Sumbu batalanga ko mavanga ma Yave, ayi mavanga ma mioko miandi, wela ku babunga ayi kalendi ku batunga diaka ko.
6 May the Lord be praised, because he has given ear to the voice of my prayer.
Nzitusu wuba kuidi Yave! Bila wuwilu yamikina kuama mu diambu di kiadi.
7 The Lord is my strength and my breastplate, my heart had faith in him and I am helped; for this cause my heart is full of rapture, and I will give him praise in my song.
Yave niandi zingolo ziama ayi nkakuꞌama. Ntimꞌama wuntulanga diana mu niandi ayi ndisadusu. Ntimꞌama weti mona khini yi ngolo ayi ndiela kumvutudila matondo mu nkungꞌama.
8 The Lord is their strength, and a strong place of salvation for his king.
Yave niandi ngolo mu diambu di batu bandi. Niandi buangu kingolo ki khudulu yi mutu andi wowo kadukudila mafuta.
9 Be a saviour to your people, and send a blessing on your heritage: be their guide, and let them be lifted up for ever.
Vukisa batu baku ayi sakumuna kiuka kiaku. Bika wuba nsungi awu ayi wuba nata mu zithangu zioso.
