Psalms 33
1 Be glad in the Lord, O doers of righteousness; for praise is beautiful for the upright.
Bino bato ya sembo, bobeta milolo ya esengo na tina na Yawe! Kokumisa Nzambe ebongi na bato oyo bazali alima.
2 Give praise to the Lord on the corded instrument; make melody to him with instruments of music.
Bosanzola Yawe na nzenze, bosanzola Ye na lindanda ya basinga zomi.
3 Make a new song to him; playing expertly with a loud noise.
Boyembela Yawe nzembo ya sika, bobetisa bibetelo mindule elongo na koganga ya esengo.
4 For the word of the Lord is upright, and all his works are certain.
Pamba te Liloba na Yawe ezali alima, misala na Ye nyonso ekokisamaka na boyengebene.
5 His delight is in righteousness and wisdom; the earth is full of the mercy of the Lord.
Yawe alingaka bosembo mpe alima; mokili etondi na bolingo na Ye.
6 By the word of the Lord were the heavens made; and all the army of heaven by the breath of his mouth.
Likolo ekelamaki na Liloba na Yawe; mampinga na yango nyonso, na nzela ya pema ya monoko na Ye.
7 He makes the waters of the sea come together in a mass; he keeps the deep seas in store-houses.
Asangisaka mayi ya bibale minene esika moko, mpe atiaka yango na bisika ya mozindo.
8 Let the earth be full of the fear of the Lord; let all the people of the world be in holy fear of him.
Tika ete mokili mobimba etosa Yawe! Tika ete bavandi nyonso ya mokili balenga liboso na Ye.
9 For he gave the word, and it was done; by his order it was fixed for ever.
Pamba te alobaki, mpe likambo esalemaki; mpe apesaki mitindo, mpe emonanaki.
10 The Lord undoes the designs of the nations; he makes the thoughts of the peoples without effect.
Yawe akweyisaka mikano ya bikolo, abebisaka mabongisi ya bato.
11 The Lord's purpose is eternal, the designs of his heart go on through all the generations of man.
Kasi mikano ya Yawe etikalaka mpo na seko, mabongisi ya motema na Ye, mpo na bikeke nyonso.
12 Happy is the nation whose God is the Lord; and the people whom he has taken for his heritage.
Esengo na ekolo oyo Yawe azali Nzambe na yango. Esengo na bato oyo aponaki mpo na libula na Ye.
13 The Lord is looking down from heaven; he sees all the sons of men;
Yawe atalaka wuta na likolo, amonaka bana nyonso ya bato.
14 From his house he keeps watch on all who are living on the earth;
Wuta na evandelo na Ye, atalaka bavandi nyonso ya mokili.
15 He makes all their hearts; their works are clear to him.
Ye oyo asalaka mitema nyonso ya bato asosolaka makambo nyonso oyo basalaka.
16 A king's salvation is not in the power of his army; a strong man does not get free by his great strength.
Ezali te limpinga monene nde ebikisaka mokonzi to nguya monene nde ekangolaka elombe.
17 A horse is a false hope; his great power will not make any man free from danger.
Mpunda ezali na nguya te ya kopesa lobiko, makasi na yango nyonso ekangolaka te.
18 See, the eye of the Lord is on those in whose hearts is the fear of him, on those whose hope is in his mercy;
Nzokande Yawe atalaka bato oyo batosaka Ye, ba-oyo batiaka elikya na bolingo kati na Ye,
19 To keep their souls from death; and to keep them living in time of need.
mpo na kokangola bango na kufa mpe kobatela bango na bomoi ata na tango ya nzala makasi.
20 Our souls are waiting for the Lord; he is our help and our salvation.
Totielaka Yawe motema; azali lisungi mpe nguba na biso.
21 For in him our hearts have joy; in his holy name is our hope.
Solo, mitema na biso esepelaka kati na Ye, pamba te totiaka elikya na biso kati na Kombo na Ye ya bule.
22 Let your mercy be on us, O Lord, as we are waiting for you.
Yawe, lokola totiaka elikya na biso kati na Yo, tika ete bolingo na Yo ezala elongo na biso.
