< Psalms 70 >

1 For the end, by David for a remembrance, that the Lord may save me. Draw nigh, O God, to my help.
Wuta na buku ya mokambi ya bayembi. Nzembo ya Davidi mpo na kokanisa misala ya Nzambe. Nzambe, yaka noki mpo na kangola ngai! Yawe, yaka noki mpo na kosunga ngai!
2 Let them be ashamed and confounded that seek my soul: let them be turned backward and put to shame, that wish me evil.
Tika ete bato oyo balukaka kufa na ngai bakufa soni mpe basambwa! Tika ete bato oyo bazelaka libebi na ngai bazonga sima mpe bayokisama soni!
3 Let them that say to me, Aha, aha, be turned back and put to shame immediately.
Tika ete bato oyo balobaka na ngai: « Ah! Ah! » bazonga mpo na soni!
4 Let all that seek thee exult and be glad in thee: and let those that love thy salvation say continually, Let God be magnified.
Tika ete bato nyonso oyo balukaka Yo batonda na esengo mpe basepela kati na Yo! Tika ete ba-oyo balingaka lobiko na Yo balobaka tango nyonso: « Nzambe azali monene! »
5 But I am poor and needy; O God, help me: thou art my helper and deliverer, O Lord, delay not.
Mpo ete nazali mobola mpe moto akelela, Nzambe, yaka noki mpo na kosunga ngai. Yawe, ozali Lisungi mpe Mokangoli na ngai, kowumela te!
