Psalms 28

1 [A Psalm] of David. To thee, O Lord, have I cried; my God, be not silent toward me: lest thou be silent toward me, and so I should be likened to them that go down to the pit.

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 Hearken to the voice of my supplication, when I pray to thee, when I lift up my hands toward thy holy temple.

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 Draw not away my soul with sinners, and destroy me not with the workers of iniquity, who speak peace with their neighbours, but evils are 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 according to their works, and according to the wickedness of their devices: give them according to the works of their hands; render their recompense unto them.

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 not attended to the works of the Lord, even to the works of his hands, thou shalt pull them down, and shalt not build them up.

Sumbu batalanga ko mavanga ma Yave, ayi mavanga ma mioko miandi, wela ku babunga ayi kalendi ku batunga diaka ko.

6 Blessed be the Lord, for he has hearkened to the voice of my petition.

Nzitusu wuba kuidi Yave! Bila wuwilu yamikina kuama mu diambu di kiadi.

7 The Lord is my helper and my defender; my heart has hoped in him, and I am helped: my flesh has revived, and willingly will I give praise to him.

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 the strength of his people, and the saving defender of his anointed.

Yave niandi ngolo mu diambu di batu bandi. Niandi buangu kingolo ki khudulu yi mutu andi wowo kadukudila mafuta.

9 Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance: and take care of them, and lift them up for ever.

Vukisa batu baku ayi sakumuna kiuka kiaku. Bika wuba nsungi awu ayi wuba nata mu zithangu zioso.
